Judge orders Mike Pence to testify in Jan. 6 probe of Trump's election efforts.

A federal judge has rejected former President Donald Trump's claim of executive privilege to prevent former Vice President Mike Pence from testifying before a grand jury investigating efforts to overturn the 2020 election. The judge ordered that Pence should have to provide answers to Special Counsel Jack Smith on any questions that implicate any illegal acts on Trump's part. Pence's team had argued that such communications could run afoul of the Speech and Debate Clause that shields officials in Congress from legal proceedings specifically related to their work.
