Trump pressuring Pence over election is focus of next Jan. 6 hearing: Cheney

• In the video, Cheney said Trump plotted with attorney John Eastman and others to overturn the election.
• Cheney's video included footage of Trump's White House adviser Eric Herschmann telling the Jan. 6 committee that he urged Eastman on Jan. 7 to hire a good criminal defense lawyer because "you’re going to need it.”

Catch up quick: Back in March, a federal judge said that Trump and Eastman "launched a campaign to overturn a democratic election, an action unprecedented in American history."

• Eastman helped Trump develop a plan to pressure Pence into overturning the results of the 2020 election, Axios previously reported.

Worth noting: The Jan. 6 committee public hearing originally scheduled for Wednesday was postponed.

• That hearing was meant to focus on the Department of Justice and Trump's efforts to use the DOJ to challenge the 2020 election results, Axios' Erin Doherty writes.
