Part of me thinks that the only reason why Pence is doing this is because he is well aware the history books won't be kind to everything Trump and he's simply trying to save his legacy. Not so much because he truly a standup guy all the sudden.

So silly
I don’t really care why he’s doing it. The evidence he’s given to the indictment (like in my post above) and his subsequent live testimony could be monumental.
I'm beginning to think he actually wants to go to jail, railing against a judge is not the smartest thing to do!
In a January 2021 phone call between the pair, Trump “berated” Pence for saying there was no constitutional basis for the vice president to reject electoral votes during the certification of results, according to the indictment.
"You’re too honest,” Trump told Pence, according to the indictment.

Just feck off.

It's not going to happen
I like how Pence suddenly has grown a pair, we all knew he was a weasel on whatever side is doing the best but even for him this takes the piss, only doing this now because he's (unsuccessfully) running for President, give that weirdo from Utah a run for his money at least.
Unfortunately for Trump, he can actually do whatever he wants, I see they are turning the screw but until someone stops warning him and actually reigns him in, he'll continue

I find this interview to be fascinating.
On the context of Republicans coming out after the 2020 election and spreading election fraud lies:

Time for the FBI to send their HRT guys with facemasks to drag Orange Doofus out in the same way that masked Mexican Federales arrest and escort a drug lord.
I like it, grab him, pump him full of oestrogen!
Make him grow a big old pair of tits.
So the arguments seem to be:
Other people have mishandled / taken classified documents in the past, and not this much has been made of it. Indeed, both Pence and Biden have recently been 'caught' in posession of things they shouldn't have. But here's the rub, everyone else, when notified, gave them back. What they did not do was have their lawyers lie about giving docs back, deliberately moving docs ahead of the FBI coming to get them, potentially asking an aide to flood a pool to destroy evidence and oh yeah get caught on tape showing military secrets to a random group of fans. Otherwise same thing.
2. Trumps actions in inciting the Jan 6 riots are unprecedented, and on untouched legal grounding, so maybe we shouldn't bother cause it's hard. Hell of a legal mind you've got there.
3. We can never truly know the inside of another human beings mind, and this crime (like a huge number of them) require that. So again, let's not bother. Nevermind you literally have Trump talking about the 'other guys' problems' on issues he didn't want to deal with which Biden would have to when President, or the countless witnesses acknowleding he knew he'd loss. Again, this is very common in the US legal system. I agree, it's not a slam dunk, but it's also not some crazy theory.
Finally, Georgia is the one. On tape, asking for votes to be found from a person in position to find them. I can't remember the wording, but it's almost a text book example of breaking that law, and simply asking is a crime.
He's an awful human being, a terrible criminal and keeps doing crimes (did another one today, huzzah!) therefore he should be tried and found guitly as a criminal.
“Never believe that anti-Semites are completely unaware of the absurdity of their replies. They know that their remarks are frivolous, open to challenge. But they are amusing themselves, for it is their adversary who is obliged to use words responsibly, since he believes in words. The anti-Semites have the right to play. They even like to play with discourse for, by giving ridiculous reasons, they discredit the seriousness of their interlocutors. They delight in acting in bad faith, since they seek not to persuade by sound argument but to intimidate and disconcert. If you press them too closely, they will abruptly fall silent, loftily indicating by some phrase that the time for argument is past.”

C-SPAN would have record viewing ratings but it's not going to happen, there are rules don't allow it in Federal court
Heard that there was a path that CJ Roberts could take in order to allow for cameras. No clue on the procedure's specifics, just that there was one.
Guess it depends on how the rules are set, presumably there's no actual law, either way you know Trump will decry which ever option is selected
Your mask has slipped.
That's not my contention, it's about her looks.
That's what he means by qualifications, if you want Trump to pay attention a nice pair of jugs will do the trick
It was never really there tbf.
Oh dear…
Can't say I didn't see that coming yet I still feel disappointed. Someone should ask Trump and his like why he cares about women's soccer though.
Thats what feeling untouchable feels like. He has been always like this. All his life passing through his bone spurs to 6 times being bailed out from bankrupcy till he became a nominee "grab them by the pussy" and i cant shot someone in 5th ave in broad day like. Almost 80 years of untouchability. Why he should change now? He feels he will get away. And anyway, he doesnt have that much time to live. Only 30 years more the fecking bastard. They never die
We did?
How dare the President hold the view that people should be prosecuted for crimes. Even if they are rich and powerful. Disgusting.
I didn't see that either!
Link that Farage post up please. My curiosity is piqued.
