“The figures pressuring Mike Pence to reject Joe Biden’s electoral votes on Jan. 6 were asking him to act ‘unlawfully,’ the chief judge of Washington D.C.’s federal district court ruled in a secret April decision,” Politico reports.
“U.S. District Court Judge James Boasberg’s 19-page opinion — which the judge partially unsealed Friday at the urging of media organizations — cleared the way for special counsel Jack Smith’s prosecutors to question the former vice president about his conversations with a wide array of figures who leaned on him to reject Biden’s electors, possibly including Donald Trump.”
