The FBI's retrieval of classified documents from the Florida resort of former President Donald Trump has led to attacks and threats. He might testify before the House committee in January.
At the Politics & Eggs breakfast of the New Hampshire Institute of Politics, a regular stop for presidential hopefuls, Vice President Mike Pence said he would consider an invitation to participate if there was one. He warned that it would be unusual for a vice president to testify.
Bennie Thompson, Chairman of the Jan. 6 committee, has said that the door is open for Vice President-elect Mike Pence. Neither side has made clear where those talks are. The people for the committee did not reply to the request for comment.
The FBI's search of Mar-a-Lago has led to attacks on federal law enforcement.
The FBI needs to stop being attacked. The calls to defund the FBI are the same as the calls to defund the police.
His comments came as he launches a swing through a pair of early-voting states.
After Wednesday's New Hampshire event, Vice President Mike Pence is scheduled to attend the Iowa State Fair with Iowa Republicans. He is scheduled to speak at an event for the Iowa Faith and Freedom Coalition.
The FBI search of Mar-a-Lago resulted in a surge of support from Republican officials. The support has cooled after it was revealed that agents removed 27 boxes of classified intel and that there was an increase in threats against law enforcement.
Trump has held the majority of voter support for the Republican nomination since he left office. Trump did see a brief spike immediately after the search was announced, but it is not clear if that is a new trend. Despite his refusal to back Trump in the 2020 election, Vice President Mike Pence still has a core of support among Republican voters.
