TL;DR Summary

Former Vice President Mike Pence reportedly provided harrowing details to special counsel Jack Smith's team about the aftermath of the 2020 election and his warnings to then-President Donald Trump. Pence allegedly described how Trump surrounded himself with "crank" attorneys, espoused "un-American" legal theories, and almost pushed the country into a "constitutional crisis." He also informed Trump that he hadn't seen evidence of significant election fraud before the Jan. 6 Capitol attack, but Trump continued to claim the election was "stolen." Pence's testimony could be crucial in the special counsel's investigation into Trump's alleged efforts to unlawfully remain in power and erode public faith in democratic institutions.
