Former Vice President Mike Pence says the indictment of Donald Trump is an "outrage" in an exclusive CNN interview. https://cnn.it/40wl2t7

Quick Glance: Pence's secret ruling forges new ground for the vice presidency

This is because, contrary to popular belief, vice presidents are constitutionally required to serve as president of the Senate.

And officers of Congress, such as lawmakers and their aides, have immunity based on a provision of the Constitution known as the "speech or debate" clause, which was intended to protect Congress from law enforcement inquiries related to their official duties.

Vice presidents have long argued that they should have the same legal protections as Congress, but Boasberg's decision is the first time a court has granted the vice presidency so-called speech-or-debate immunity.

However, immunity does not apply to purely "political" activities.

Quick Glance: Florida Grand Jury Joins Probe into Trump's Classified Docs

Federal prosecutors are presenting evidence to a grand jury in Miami as part of the investigation into former President Donald Trump's alleged mishandling of classified documents.

Several witnesses have testified before the Florida grand jury, with more expected in the coming days.

The investigation previously relied on grand juries in Washington, D.C. It's unclear why the south Florida grand jury is now involved.

However, a Florida court approved the warrant to search Mar-a-Lago, where Trump kept classified documents, and an assistant US attorney from Miami was present during the raid, according to CNN.

Quick Glance: A committee on January 6 proposes criminal charges against Donald Trump.

The proposal is mostly symbolic, with the US Justice Department determining whether or not to charge Mr Trump.

Democrat Bennie Thompson, chair of the committee, said, "We have every confidence that the work of this committee will help provide the road map to justice."

Ms Cheney noted that prosecutors are now assessing the ramifications of the behaviour highlighted in the committee's findings.

According to Mr. Trump's lawyer, John Eastman, "A criminal 'referral' from a congressional committee is not binding on the Department of Justice and carries no more legal weight than a 'referral' from any American citizen."

Pence has not yet been subpoenaed, so his testimony would be voluntary at this stage.

However, if he does appear, it might be a significant step forward for the DOJ, which has just appointed a special counsel, Jack Smith, to assess if Donald Trump should be indicted in the January 6 investigation or in the mishandling of secret documents at Mar-a-Lago.

The former vice president was clearly present during several of the discussions in which Trump's inept staff of legal advisers sought strategies to keep Trump in power.

If Pence agrees to speak, Trump will almost certainly try to block the hearing by asserting executive privilege.

Many national security experts believe that far too much information is labeled "classified," and that the handling of such documents has long been fraught.

Mr. Biden's case is complicated by the discovery of classified materials from his time as a U.S. senator in his Wilmington, Delaware, home, along with additional documents from his time as vice president.

Six more documents were discovered in total.

Former President Jimmy Carter discovered classified documents at his home in Plains, Georgia, and returned them to the National Archives, according to The Associated Press.
