#JeffClark Disbarment Trial ALERT: Jeff Clark's hearings are March 26-29 and April 1-5, 2024. "In re Jeffrey B. Clark, Board Docket No. 22-BD-039" YouTube livestreams here: https://youtube.com/@d.c.bprhearingcomm ... 2/featured.

Clark also faces 2 felony counts in Fulton County GA for the same actions cited in the bar complaint.

Public filings for #JeffClarkDisbarment are in the Cases of Public Interest Folder at https://districtofcolumbiabar.sharepoin ... 5ef1f9747b.

"The disciplinary trial of former Justice Department official Jeffrey Clark begins Tuesday in Washington. The bar complaint against him says Clark attempted to convince Georgia officials to overturn Democrat Joe Biden’s victory on false pretenses – an attempt that went nowhere but led to a dramatic White House showdown and the resignation of Trump’s U.S. attorney in Atlanta." "The Office of Disciplinary Counsel for the District of Columbia Court of Appeals in Washington has accused him of dishonesty and conduct that would interfere in the administration of justice to keep Trump in power. A trial is expected to take about nine days. If the panel removes his law license, it would bar him from practicing law in Washington D.C."

Thanks to Meghan Borrazas, Case Manager, Board on Professional Responsibility. Big week for Jeff Clark #JeffClarkDisbarment and John Eastman: Judge Yvette Roland's Disbarment decision in CA Bar's #EastmanTrial is coming soon!

Yes.

On Thursday, Clark’s lawyer Harry MacDougald offered an answer: “There was a period on Jan. 3 when he was the acting attorney general until the president changed his mind later that day.”

* * *

It also dovetails with a piece of evidence unearthed by the Jan. 6 select committee: White House call logs from Jan. 3, 2021 show Trump spoke by phone with Clark four times that day. The first three times, from around 7 a.m. to 1 p.m., the logs identify Clark as “Mr. Jeffrey Clark.” The fourth time, at around 4:17 p.m. — two hours before the fateful Oval Office meeting — they list him as “Acting Attorney General Jeffrey Clark.”

“[C]ontemporaneous White House documents suggest that Clark had already been appointed as the Acting Attorney General,” the report concludes.

In documents filed ahead of his disciplinary proceedings, Clark cited the Jan. 6 committee’s finding to indicate that Trump had “designated” him acting attorney general “for a time” on Jan. 3, 2021.

But the matter remains unresolved. Some of Clark’s former colleagues are skeptical that the appointment actually occurred, noting that even if Trump had verbally confirmed it, there would need to be documentation and paperwork to effectuate the leadership change.

But in all seriousness, f'ck these anti-democracy disinformation agents.
They shouldn't be given a platform to spread their lies..... The DC bar is falling for the trap

Jeffrey Bossert Clark must be SO PROUD of the case he's presenting to keep the DC Bar from disbarring him. "If my witnesses are unqualified cranks and liars, I'll take my pants off!" -- Jeff. #JeffClarkTrial
