Daniel Barnes reports for NBC News, based in Washington.
WASHINGTON — The disciplinary panel of the D.C. Bar reached a preliminary conclusion that former Trump Justice Department official Jeffrey Clark committed an ethical violation when he pushed conspiracy theories about the 2020 presidential election, including the allegation that the election was stolen via smart thermostats.
Another witness, an expert in environmental law, said during testimony last week that he disagreed with Clark’s perspective on who his “client” was as a government attorney. Clark had testified last week that he believed his “client” was Trump himself, not the American people . “I disagree with Mr. Clark on that, I think the client is the Department of Justice and the American people, not necessarily the occupant of the office of president,” E. Donald Ellio testified last week.
