In the video below, Vice President Mike Pence looks firmly in charge.

Russian President Vladimir Putin looks like a submissive boy trying to get his father’s approval.

See it differently?

From Daily Wire:

Pence and Putin met up on the sidelines of the Association of Southeast Asian Nations conference in Singapore on Friday, where foreign leaders discussed arms control and other pressing issues. As they shook hands — and for a good while after — Pence cast a steely glare at Putin, never breaking eye contact.

Reports say the two discussed election meddling.

National Security Adviser John Bolton has made an announcement that won’t please Americans who disagree with President Trump.

According to Bolton, Putin will visit the White House sometime in 2019.

Here’s the scoop, via AP News:

TBILISI, Georgia (AP) — U.S. National Security Adviser John Bolton said Friday that Russian President Vladimir Putin has been invited to visit Washington next year.

Bolton said “we have invited President Putin to Washington after the first of the year for, basically, a full day of consultations.” He said no date has been set yet.

Trump sent Putin a strong message by pulling out of the nuclear deal with Russia.

The Trump Administration announced Sunday that they intend to pull out of a nuclear arms treaty, inked with Russia during the Cold War, and accused Moscow of expanding their base of nuclear weapons in violation of the treaty.

President Donald Trump told members of the press late Saturday that the United States intends to seek a new deal with both Russia and China to put a halt to nuclear armament. China was not part of the original deal, the Intermediate-Range Nuclear Forces Treaty (INF), authored in 1987 before China was officially a known nuclear power.

As far as Russian retaliation, Newsmax has the details:

Russian Deputy Foreign Minister Sergei Ryabkov said on Sunday that a unilateral U.S. withdrawal would be “very dangerous” and lead to a “military-technical” retaliation.

California Democrat and House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi recently compared then-SCOTUS nominee Brett Kavanaugh to Putin and Kim Jong-un.

Nancy Pelosi: The only person who doesn’t have to be vetted is the president. And it is pretty clear that he could not withstand a vetting. And he talks about being in love with Kim Jong Un and thinking Kavanaugh is a great guy, upstanding this or that. I guess there’s a similarity that people have with people they respect – Crazy about Putin! In love with Kim Jong Un! Thinks Kavanaugh is a great upstanding person.

Pence had a few words for billionaire liberal Oprah Winfrey, who recently campaigned for failed Democrat gubernatorial candidate Stacey Abrams.

Winfrey noted: “For anybody here who has an ancestor who didn’t have the right to vote and you are choosing not to vote wherever you are in this state, in this country, you are dishonoring your family.”

She added: “You are disrespecting and disregarding their legacy, their suffering and their dreams when you don’t vote. I am an independent woman. Nobody paid for me to come here. Nobody even asked for me to come here. I paid for myself and I approve this message.”

I’m not here because I’m making some grandstand, because I’m thinking of running myself. I don’t want to run, OK? I’m not trying to test any waters. Don’t want to go in those waters. I’m here today because of Stacey Abrams.

Enter Pence: “This ain’t Hollywood! I’m kind of a big deal, too.
