Pence addressed both issues of the 25th Amendment, and the dealings with Zelensky after placing Trump as 1st-in-the-nation in the Republican primary ballot in NH.
Pence dismissed rumors that he considered "invoking the 25th Amendment" to remove Trump from office or keep him from running again.
The Huffington Post obtained an excerpt of "A Warning," written by the "unnamed senior Trump administration official."
The Huffington Post said the anonymous author tallied roughly which of the Cabinet members would sign a letter invoking Section 4 of the 25th Amendment.
Fox News asked Pence if there was any truth to the report of the anonymous author.
Pence said he dismissed the rumors when they came out in 2017.
Pence "never heard any discussion in his entire tenure as Vice President about the 25th Amendment."
To re-emphasize his point, Pence added he was "happy to dismiss them without qualification."
While Pence was in NH, Williams was unaccessible on Capitol Hill.
However, Williams "complied with a subpoena served by House Democrats."
"According to a Trump administration official, Williams was on the July 25 phone call between Trump and Zelensky."
Opinion (11)
On Thursday, Pence "blasted" a new report that suggested Pence considered using the 25th Amendment to remove Trump from office.
Pence restated that "neither he nor the president did anything wrong in their dealings with Zelensky."
Pence clarified that there were no unkind feelings between those running for political office.
Pence's comments came after the anonymous author of an "upcoming anti-Trump book" cited anonymous sources declaring Pence to have tried to use the 25th Amendment to unseat Trump in 2017.
The editorial was a "scathing attack" on Trump.
The anonymous author said there was "no doubt" that "Pence would be on board."
Pence said the record they're celebrating in New Hampshire is a testament to Trump's leadership.
Pence then "took aim" at the anonymous author.
Pence said the idea of the anonymous editorial writer writing a book is "appalling to him."
Pence said if someone in the administration is not supporting Trump or his agenda then they should "do the honorable thing and resign."
Fox News found that the White House tried to prevent Williams from testifying, or tried to limit her testimony.

This book says Trump "stumbles, slurs, and gets confused."
This book says Trump deserves to be fired.
The "anonymous staff member" questions Trump's fitness for office.
"I am not qualified to diagnose the president's mental acuity," writes the author according to a review by The Washington Post
"All I can tell you is that normal people who spend any time with Donald Trump are uncomfortable by what they witness," writes the author.
"He stumbles, slurs, gets confused, is easily irritated, and has trouble synthesizing information, not occasionally but with regularity," writes the author.
"Those who would claim otherwise are lying to themselves or to the country," writes the author.
Trump is described as a "twelve-year-old in an air traffic control tower."
Trump is described as an "elderly uncle running pants less across the courtyard of a nursing home while cursing loudly about the cafeteria food, as worried attendants tried to catch him."
"You're stunned, amused, and embarrassed all at the same time," the author writes.
The "anonymous official" admits he sat in "uncomfortable silence" as Trump made "offensive jokes" about a woman's appearance or performance.
The author adds that Trump comments on makeup and jokes about weight.
"He questions the toughness of women in and around his orbit. He uses words like ‘sweetie’ and ‘honey’ to address accomplished professionals," the author writes.
"This is precisely the way a boss shouldn’t act in the work environment," the author concludes.
The author says the "last straw" that made him speak out was Trump's attempt to prevent the lowering of the White House flag to half-mast after senator John McCain's death.
Even though the author dislikes Trump so much, he doesn't want him impeached because this would cause "further disunion."
The author admits his description of a White House resistance movement was made to be bigger than it actually was.
The author added, "Unelected bureaucrats and cabinet appointees were never going to steer Donald Trump the right direction in the long run, or refine his malignant management style. He is who he is."
