On Wednesday former Vice President Mike Pence asked fellow Republicans to stop attacking the FBI over their raid of former President Donald Trump's Mar-a-Lago home. He called the demands for demanding the FBI "just as wrong" as when leftist activists called for defunding the police.
Pence also said he would give "due consideration" when it comes to testifying for the January 6 incident at the U.S. Capitol.
"If there was an invitation to participate, I would consider it," Pence said.

"It would be unprecedented in history for a vice president to be summoned to testify on Capitol Hill, but as I said, I don’t want to prejudge," he said. "If ever any formal invitation was rendered to us, we’d give it due consideration."
He also had a message for the GOP with regards to their issues with the FBI:
"I also want to remind my fellow Republicans, we can hold the attorney general accountable for the decision he made without attacking the rank-and-file law enforcement personnel at the FBI," he said at the Politics & Eggs event at St. Anselm College.
"The Republican Party is the party of law and order," Pence continued. "Our party stands with the men and women who stand on the thin blue line at the federal and state and local level, and these attacks on the FBI must stop. Calls to defund the FBI are just as wrong as calls to defund the police."
"Calls to defund the FBI are just as wrong as calls to defund the police." Former Vice President Mike Pence denounced attacks on the FBI from a handful of GOP lawmakers. https://t.co/alUTXpTj8A pic.twitter.com/yPaCfi6hD1
