| 0:00.0 | Former President Donald Trump could face more illegal drama and the EPA is |
| 0:05.4 | cracking down on coal plants. I'm Jeff Pierre and this is the seven from the |
| 0:09.6 | Washington Post. It's Thursday, April 6th. Let's get you caught up with today's seven stories. |
| 0:15.0 | First up, former President Donald Trump suffered another legal blow yesterday. |
| 0:24.0 | Mike Pence, that Trump's former vice president said that he won't appeal a ruling that requires |
| 0:29.0 | him to testify before a grand jury. |
| 0:31.7 | This is part of the investigation into the 2021 capital attack. |
| 0:35.2 | Pence's decision means that he probably will testify under oath and could become a |

| 1:42.6 | sounded like and there was stuff hitting the house my son come flying down the hallway |
| 1:48.4 | we got a grand kid they were screaming we got everybody down in the lower bathroom and stuff was just hitting the house and I didn't know if we were going to lose the house or not. It was a horrible experience. We were all scared. |
