Rep. Ken Buck (R-Colo.) testified on Nov. 2 in a case that seeks to prevent former President Donald Trump from being allowed to appear on the ballot in the state of Colorado in 2024. Mr. Buck is testifying on behalf of attorneys for President Trump’s campaign.

The central question, in this case, is whether or not President Trump’s conduct and comments during and before the Capitol breach on Jan. 6 could be construed as violating a provision of the 14th Amendment that bars someone from holding federal office if they participate in or assist in an insurrection.
