Mike Pence subpoenaed by special counsel
By Anthony Gonzalez
Former vice president Mike Pence was subpoenaed as part of a special counsel investigation into former president Donald Trump's actions leading to the events of Jan. 6, 2021.
On that day, Trump-supporters protested the Electoral College certification of then-candidate Joe Biden.
The subpoena was issued by special counsel Jack Smith, who was tasked by U.S. Attorney General Merrick Garland in November 2022 to investigate the classified documents seized by the FBI from the former president's residence in Florida.
According to ABC News, the subpoena from Smith requests documents and testimony relating to Trump's attempts to overturn the 2020 presidential election. Smith's office wants the former vice president to testify about the interactions he had with Trump following the election and the events of Jan. 6, according to CNN.
Former U.S. House rep. Vin Weber (R-Minn.) said Pence should cooperate with the subpoena. "He's got to be the straight-up guy he is, or he loses his brand," Weber said.
