The Jan. 6 select committee’s hearings are all about one man, and it’s not the one you think. It’s Mike Pence.
Eastman’s emails, many of which center on Pence specifically, have become a crucial cache of evidence for the select committee. That collection was expected to grow larger on Wednesday, after U.S. District Court Judge David Carter ordered the Trump ally to produce 150 sensitive documents to the panel. Carter said one of those Pence-focused emails constituted evidence of a likely crime because Eastman expressed a desire to prevent courts from considering the plan.
. “Dr. Eastman and President Trump’s plan to stop the count was not only established by early December, it was the ultimate goal that the legal team was working to protect from that point forward.” A crowd of Trump supporters gather outside as seen from inside the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021 in Washington, D.C. | Cheriss May/Getty Images
