Mike Pence must testify before grand jury in Donald Trump probe, judge rules

Mike Pence must testify to a grand jury about conversations he had with Donald Trump relating to the former president’s attempt to overturn the results of the 2020 presidential election, according to a person familiar with the matter.

Judge James Boasberg in the US District Court for the District of Columbia ruled that Pence, Trump’s former vice-president, would need to comply with a subpoena in the US Department of Justice probe into whether Trump committed any federal crimes in the aftermath of the 2020 election, including January 6 2021, when mobs of his supporters attacked the US Capitol and interrupted the certification of Joe Biden’s victory.
