From a different live tweeter there is a bit more detail. He went into all of the talk between the accused on encrypted apps like What'sApp, Telegram, etc. before the following took place.

Pence receives subpoena from prosecutors examining Trump’s role in Jan. 6
It is unclear whether Pence will comply with the subpoena, which pits a potential 2024 rival against the former president.
By Josh Dawsey and Perry Stein
Updated February 9, 2023 at 9:00 p.m. EST|Published February 9, 2023 at 8:03 p.m. EST

Former Vice President Mike Pence received a subpoena from the special counsel investigating key aspects of the sprawling probe into the Jan. 6, 2021, attack on the U.S. Capitol and former president Donald Trump’s efforts to overturn the election, according to a person familiar with the matter.

Jack Smith — the special counsel appointed by Attorney General Merrick Garland to lead the day-day operations of the investigation — is also heading a separate criminal probe into Trump’s possible mishandling of classified documents at his Florida home.

The Pence subpoena is related to Jan. 6, according to the person familiar with the matter, and comes after months of negotiations between the Justice Department and Pence.

ABC News first reported news of the subpoena. A spokesman for the special counsel declined to comment. A spokesman for Pence also declined to comment.

The subpoena marks the highest level person in Trump’s orbit publicly known to be subpoenaed as part of the investigation and could pit two potential presidential candidates against one another and is the latest indication that the extensive probe is pushing forward.

It is unclear whether Pence will comply with the recent subpoena. His advisers had previously said he was not interested in appearing before the congressional committee investigating the Jan. 6 attack on the Capitol. Pence has told people privately that he has concerned about testifying against Trump because of executive privilege, according to the person familiar with the matter.

Pence is presumably the only witness to one-on-one conversations he had with Trump, and prosecutors may feel they need to, at a minimum, attempt to get his version of events under oath.

The court-issued inquiry to Pence comes as Smith’s probe has been intensifying. Last December, a grand jury issued a wide-ranging subpoena to Trump campaign officials, asking questions about Jan. 6 and who was footing their legal bills, The Washington Post previously reported.

The Post also reported that subpoenas were received in late November and December by local and state election officials in states that Biden narrowly won and where Trump and his allies claimed there was fraud.

During the attack on the Capitol, many rioters chanted “Hang Mike Pence!” because they were angry that Pence didn’t use his position to help overturn the election.

As that insurrection was unfolding, Trump tweeted that Pence “didn’t have the courage to do what should have been done.”

Pence has publicly offered an account about his version of what occurred and how he has viewed Trump’s actions that day, in his book issued late last year, “So Help Me God,” and his interviews promoting it.

The former vice president publicly suggested that Trump got bad legal advice and downplayed the idea that he saw criminal conduct.

“Well, I don’t know if it is criminal to listen to bad advice from lawyers,” Pence told NBC last year. “The truth is, what the president was repeating is what he was hearing from that gaggle of attorneys around him. Presidents, just like all of us that have served in public life, you have to rely on your team, you have to rely on the credibility of the people around you. So, as time goes on, I hope we can move beyond this, beyond that prospect. And this is really a time when our country ought to be healing.”

Pence also said in an interview with ABC’s “World News Tonight that Trump’s rhetoric was “reckless” and that the former president’s actions “endangered” members of the Pence family and those trapped inside the building that day.

In a separate matter, federal law enforcement officials are also in discussions with Pence’s legal team to perform a consensual search of his Indiana home to ensure there are no classified materials on his property, according to a person familiar with the matter.

In late January, a lawyer for Pence said that the former vice president brought in outside counsel with experience handling classified materials to search records stored in his Indiana home “out of an abundance of caution” after news broke that materials were discovered on personal properties of President Biden’s home.

The lawyer, Greg Jacob, said in a Jan. 18 letter to the National Archives that counsel “identified a small number of documents that could potentially contain sensitive or classified information interspersed throughout the records.” Jacob said that Pence was “ready and willing to cooperate fully.”

Garland has appointed a second special counsel, Robert Hur, to oversee the investigation into the classified materials discovered at Biden’s personal properties.

The attorney general has not commented on the materials found at Pence’s property.

Devlin Barrett contributed to this report.

Serious question here.
I know that it went down the drain during Tiny's regime. But: what is the status with a US Subpoena? I thought that this was the sort of thing that, if you did not comply, several black vans with tinted windows went to your house, big burly men with aviator Ray Bans and microphones in their ears knocked your door down and roped you, before kicking you down some court room's door for whatever you were subpoenaed AND now contempt of the law.
What is it that these people simply treat this like a Home Owners Association notice for you to leash your dog?
