Trump loses appeal to block Pence from testifying to grand jury about their direct conversations as part of 2020 election interference probe.
Former President Donald Trump has lost an emergency attempt to block former Vice President Mike Pence from testifying about their direct conversations, in the latest boost to a federal criminal investigation examining Trump’s and others’ actions after the 2020 election. The former president has repeatedly tried and failed to close off some answers from witnesses close to him in the special counsel’s investigation.
The court refused to put on hold Pence’s subpoena and to override the lower-court ruling, flatly denying Trump’s requests. Trump could try to appeal again and even press the issue at the Supreme Court. Yet he gave up pushing several past executive privilege challenges to special counsel Jack Smith’s investigation after similar rulings from this court of appeals. Pence has already said he was not appealing part of a lower court’s decision, and would comply with the subpoena.
