Pence to Testify in Jan. 6 Grand Jury Probe, Will Not Appeal Ruling.
TL;DR Summary
Mike Pence will comply with a court order requiring him to testify before the grand jury investigating Donald Trump’s effort to subvert the 2020 presidential election. Pence had argued that the subpoena for his testimony was problematic because of his role as president of the Senate, entitling him to the protection of the Constitution’s “speech or debate” clause. The decision follows an unprecedented ruling by Chief U.S. District Court Judge James Boasberg to require Pence’s testimony but to acknowledge some limits to the topics prosecutors may grill him about.
