The Justice Department (DOJ) is seeking to question former Vice President Mike Pence, as a Witness in connection with its Criminal Investigation into Trump’s efforts to Stay in Power after he Lost the 2020 Election,
Pence is open to considering the Request, recognizing that the DOJ’s Criminal Investigation, is different from the Inquiry by the House Jan. 6 Committee, whose Overtures he has flatly Rejected.
Complicating the situation is whether Trump would try to invoke Executive Privilege, to Stop him or Limit his Testimony, a step that he has taken with Limited success so far with other former Officials.
Pence was present for some of the critical moments, in which Trump and his allies schemed to keep him in Office, and Block the Congressional Certification of Biden Victory.
An Agreement for him to Cooperate would be the latest remarkable twist, in an Investigation that is already fraught with Legal and Political consequences, involving a former President, who is now a declared Candidate to return to the White House, and whose potential Rivals for the 2024 Republican Nomination include Pence.
