On the morning of January 6, 2021, then-President Donald Trump reportedly threatened then-Vice President Mike Pence, warning him that certifying the election results would be a 'political career killer.' This revelation came from a White House valet who overheard part of the call between Trump and Pence.
The valet, who was with Trump for most of that day, described the phone call during the now-defunct House committee's investigation into the January 6 insurrection. Trump's side of the conversation included a direct threat to Pence, urging him to 'do what's right' and warning him of the consequences.
