Federal court rules Trump cannot block Pence's Jan. 6 testimony.

TL;DR Summary
A federal appeals court has rejected former President Trump's attempt to block former Vice President Mike Pence from testifying to a grand jury investigating the Jan. 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol. Trump's legal team had appealed a judge's order that Pence answer Justice Department questions about Trump's role in the attack and efforts to interrupt the transition of power during the 2020 election. Pence has said he will "tell the truth" and "obey the law" when he appears before the grand jury. Trump can appeal to the Supreme Court.
