THE BIG NEWS

DOJ Wants to Interview Mike Pence in Jan. 6 Probe

The New York Times reports that Justice Department investigators want to interview Mike Pence as part of their inquiry into Donald Trump's Jan. 6, 2021 coup attempt, and that Pence "is open to considering the request." Pence refused to answer questions from the House committee investigating Jan. 6, claiming "Congress has no right to my testimony," but apparently views the criminal probe in a different light. (Far be it for me to accuse a Godly man such as Pence of harboring cynical and selfish motives, but perhaps he simply felt that while the House committee's efforts would help Democrats – or perhaps Liz Cheney – in some way, the Justice Department investigation could bolster his chances as a presidential candidate in 2024.) The DOJ hasn't yet subpoenaed Pence, but even if the former vice president agrees to cooperate, Trump is expected to try to stop him by asserting executive privilege. That's right, Trump will argue that Pence isn't allowed to talk about the time an angry mob tried to hang Pence from a gallows for declining to go along with Trump's treasonous conspiracy, because Trump said so, and getting elected once makes you king forever.
