Trump's attempt to block Pence's Jan. 6 testimony fails in court.
TL;DR Summary
A federal appeals court has rejected a bid by lawyers for former President Donald Trump to block former Vice President Mike Pence from testifying before a grand jury investigating efforts to overturn the 2020 presidential election. Pence's testimony would be a milestone moment in the investigation and would likely give prosecutors a key first-person account as they press forward with their inquiry. The order from the three-judge panel of the U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals was sealed, and it was not immediately clear what day Pence might appear before the grand jury.
