Former Vice President Mike Pence said that he has no plans to testify against his former boss but will do so if the law requires it.
Pence has fully broken with former President Donald Trump since leaving office, largely due to the latter's conduct during the Jan. 6 riot. Special Counsel Jack Smith's indictment against Trump cited notes Pence took during meetings with the former president as key evidence. In an interview that will air on Sunday on CBS’s Face the Nation, Pence revealed that he would further cooperate with the law against Trump if need be.

“I have no plans to testify, but people can be confident we’ll — we’ll obey the law,” Pence said. “We’ll respond to the call of the law if it comes, and we’ll just tell the truth.”
Pence also addressed his note-taking, which proved crucial to Trump's indictment.
The former vice president said that he “didn’t make a practice of taking notes in meetings over the four-year period of time” he served as vice president, but “There was from time to time, particularly at important moments, I had a practice of scribbling a note or two on my calendar just to memorialize it and remember it, and I did that in this case.”
On the day the indictment was released, Pence released a statement defending his conduct, and denouncing his former boss.

"I will have more to say about the government’s case after reviewing the indictment," he said. "The former president is entitled to the presumption of innocence, but with this indictment, his candidacy means more talk about January 6th and more distractions."
"On January 6th, former President Trump demanded that I choose between him and the Constitution," Pence added, echoing previous statements. "I chose the Constitution, and I always will."
