Prosecutors had been looking for Pence&#8217;s testimony, which centers around Trump&#8217;s demands that he stop the electoral vote count. Trump&#8217;s lawyers initially attempted to limit Pence&#8217;s testimony by invoking executive privilege, while Pence&#8217;s lawyers claimed he was protected under the Constitution&#8217;s &#8220;speech or debate&#8221; clause. Pence&#8217;s aides have detailed the pressure that he was under from the former president, which was compounded by Trump&#8217;s public tweets calling on Pence to act.<\/p>\n<p>The ruling is the latest legal setback for Trump, as a federal appeals court recently compelled one of his attorneys to testify and turn over records relating to a separate criminal investigation into Trump&#8217;s handling of government records after leaving office.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A federal judge ordered this week that former Vice President Mike Pence must testify to a grand jury investigating former President Donald Trump\u2019s efforts to stay in office after losing the 2020 presidential election.
