"Pence's Son Influences Stand Against Trump, Becomes Key Witness in Trial"

Mike Pence initially decided to skip the congressional certification process for Joe Biden's election win due to loyalty to Trump, but was convinced by his son, a US marine, to fulfill his constitutional duty. Pence faced pressure from Trump to help overturn the election results but was persuaded by his son to support and defend the constitution. Pence ultimately supervised the certification process despite the deadly January 6 attack on Congress. Trump now faces multiple federal criminal counts related to election subversion, but remains the frontrunner for the Republican presidential nomination. Pence dropped out of the Republican race before the first primary vote.
