FBI Conducts Search of Former Vice President Mike Pence’s Home in Indiana as Part of Investigation into Trump’s Efforts to Remain in Office

The FBI is conducting a search of former Vice President Mike Pence’s home in Indiana, according to a source familiar with the situation. The search comes weeks after Pence reported finding a “small number” of classified documents in his Carmel, Indiana house, and a day after it was revealed he’d been subpoenaed in a separate federal probe.

A private attorney for Pence is at the Indiana house while the search is underway, a spokesperson added. The FBI is also expected to search Pence’s office in Washington, DC, in the coming days, sources told CNN.

The classified documents were found following the discovery of Obama-era classified documents in the possession of former Vice President Pence. The FBI and the Justice Department’s National Security Division launched a review of the documents and how they ended up in Pence’s possession.

The search is part of a larger investigation into former President Donald Trump’s effort to stay in office after the 2020 election and the Jan. 6 attack on the Capitol. It is unclear what the FBI is looking for in Pence’s home and office, or if any documents will be seized.

The FBI’s search of Pence’s home and office is the latest development in the investigation into the former president’s actions. It is unclear what the outcome of the search will be, but it is likely to provide further insight into the investigation.
