40/ First clip of Pence speaking—probably first of many today—underscoring that he knew, and has since said he knew, that he could not do as Trump asked because it was illegal. The next clip is of Pence chief of staff Marc Short saying Pence *told* Trump he could not do as asked. — PolitiTweet.org

39/ Now Vice Chair Rep. Liz Cheney (R-WY) is recapping how this fits into prior hearings. She notes that Trump had been repeatedly told his supposed legal theories were absolute nonsense, as were his claims of fraud. She is noting that Trump pressured Pence on all of this anyway. — PolitiTweet.org

41/ Per Short, Pence told Trump he couldn’t/wouldn’t do as asked *many* times. Cheney quotes a federal judge saying Trump and Eastman likely violated criminal laws in their pressure campaign on Pence/others. Cheney shows a Jacob depo saying Trump knew Eastman’s plan was illegal. — PolitiTweet.org
