OPINION: Lawyers for former Vice President Mike Pence and the Justice Department should think twice before appealing Chief Judge Jeb Boasberg’s rulings rejecting arguments to get Pence out of testifying before the Jan. 6 grand jury.
. While ruling that Pence must comply with the subpoena and answer questions posed by special counsel Jack Smith’s team before the grand jury, the judge allowed that Pence could decline to answer questions that could relate to his actions on Jan. 6 when he was acting as president of the Senate to certify the 2020 presidential election.
it makes sense that Pence cannot be questioned about his specific act of counting the electoral votes as part of the certification process.
