Trump Justice Department Lawyer Faces Disbarment

“The District of Columbia’s Office of Disciplinary Counsel issued a recommendation this week battering the credibility of former Donald Trump Justice Department attorney Jeffrey Clark, saying Clark’s ‘dishonest attempt to create national chaos’ in the run-up to Jan. 6 meant the only suitable sanction would be disbarment because, put simply, nothing else would do,” Law & Crime reports.

From the opinion: “We must do what we can to ensure that this conduct is never repeated. The way to accomplish that goal is to remove from the profession lawyers who betrayed their constitutional obligations and their country. It is important that other lawyers who might be tempted to engage in similar misconduct be aware that doing so will cost them their privilege to practice law.”
