Former Vice President Mike Pence testified on Thursday before a grand jury investigating former President Donald Trump’s efforts to overturn his 2020 election loss.
“I don’t know what he said, but I have a lot of confidence in him,” Trump told NBC News on Thursday.
Pence, who may challenge the former president for the 2024 Republican nomination, has criticized the former president over the Capitol attack even as he refused to cooperate with the Jan. 6 committee and fought the DOJ subpoena.during a speech last month. “And his reckless words endangered my family and everyone at the Capitol that day, and I know history will hold Donald Trump accountable.”Pence had “access to information that few or no other people have,”host Ari Melber.
Former federal prosecutor Andrew Weissmann, who served on special counsel Bob Mueller’s team, said that there was “very little reason to dawdle” by prosecutors after Pence’s testimony.“We’re so close to events that some times it’s hard to see their significance,” former U.S. Attorney Harry Litman. “The former VPOTUS just testified in a criminal investigation of his former POTUS. That is basically breathtaking.”As the world changes at an unprecedented pace, we need ethical, independent news more than ever before.
