A District of Columbia disciplinary panel recommended on July 31 that former Attorney General Jeffrey Clark be disbarred for writing a proof-of-concept letter that said the Department of Justice had “identified significant concerns” about the 2020 presidential election.

Clark didn’t send the letter out. According to the Court of Appeals Board on Professional Responsibility, Clark “was prepared to cause the Justice Department to tell a lie about the status of its investigation of an important national issue.”
