In a pre-dawn raid Wednesday, armed federal law enforcement agents searched the home of Jeffrey Clark, a former Trump Justice Department official who has emerged as a central figure in the partisan House Select Committee’s investigation into the January 6 riot.
Clark’s name was expected to come up in the Jan. 6 Committee hearing on Thursday.
He served as acting assistant attorney general for the Civil Division during President Trump’s final months in office, where he was the only official willing to investigate credible allegations of fraud.
In a tweet back in March, Clark explained why he has been targeted by the regime.
“I’m a former Trump DOJ official who (like you) was concerned about the 2020 election,” he explained. “Now I’m one of the top targets of the politically motivated J6 Committee.”
My name is Jeff Clark, hated by the Left.

Clark allegedly met directly with the White House to discuss allegations of voter fraud “rather than going through proper channels,” Fox News reported.
According to previous testimony before the Senate Judiciary Committee, Trump considered appointing Clark as attorney general after former AG William Barr showed no interest in pursuing voter fraud allegations after the election, but several top Justice Department officials reportedly threatened to quit, leading Trump to cancel the plan.
The committee subpoenaed Clark in October, and he reportedly invoked the Fifth Amendment more than 100 times during his interview.
Russ Vought, former Office of Management and Budget director and president of the Center for Renewing America, where Clark is a fellow, released a statement Thursday condemning the raid.
“The new era of criminalizing politics is worsening in the US. Yesterday more than a dozen DOJ law enforcement officials searched Jeff Clark’s house in a pre-dawn raid, put him in the streets in his pajamas, and took his electronic devices,” Vought said in the statement. “All because Jeff saw fit to investigate voter fraud. This is not America, folks.“
In an interview earlier this month, Clark said he had no involvement with January 6 “in any capacity,” but did want a “thorough investigation” into allegations of voter fraud.
“This whole hearing process is a Kangaroo Court with no adversary designed to destroy its targets,” Clark told Steve Bannon on June 10.
Pure punk-ass intimidation.
They ARE the bullies they claim to detest.
Adam Schiff should NEVER have another sound night of sleep.
NOT EVER.
Those bug-eyes should be slammed wide open 24/7/365 flinching at every sound, wondering whether his end has come.
Wouldn’t be wonderful if DT is elected again and the Rs all stood together behind him and do to he rats what they have done to them?
HISTORICAL!
I’m reading novels where over reach like this is met with force. Ah the beauty of a novel.
That’s why I said it would be HISTORICAL!
Did they invite CNN to cover the arrest this time?
Weather Trump or DeSantis is the nominee, they must win & they MUST appoint an AG with orders to throw Democrats in jail! The want a Banana Republic? Two can play at that game.
They must also fire every high level executive in every department. Scatter the departments to the fifty states to decentralizing the federal government.
When DC area real estate collapses, it will be a good sign that they are heading in the right direction.
“Who would order this? Garland? The feebees are really pushing their luck.”
A judge would have to approve.
Eff the FBI.
“rather than going through proper channels”

That’s the secret, isn’t it.
If, instead of reflecively seeking and subjecting yourself to corrupt, soul-deadening, immoral instruction from on high like a Russian conscript, you act in a masculine manner by undertaking your own personal evaluation of a hazy, but seemingly menacing situation that is evolving in real time, you are violating the authority and prerogative of some total creep boss somewhere, and it’s only a matter of time before the cowardly bureaucracy catches up with you for the sin of insubordination, takes you down like wild game, and the creep boss in question metaphorically mounts your head on the wall of their home office or game room to show off to similarly corrupt colleagues (or warn other underlings).
FBI Agents:
Does your wife know what you do at your job?
Do your kids know?
You are just a bunch of Democrat goons.
They aren’t ‘feds’ anymore - they’re purely a rogue group of mercenaries. They don’t care about laws, and simply do the bidding of their political masters.
That is true.
...reflexively...
I am think that picking the person your enemies hate more than any other person in the world, is not a bad strategy at all.
Whatever they see in him causes them to fear him, and that encourages me that he is exactly the right person for the job.
Now you are clearly all in for DeSantis, and I like the hell out of him, but I will predict right now that if DeSantis becomes the nominee, the deep state corruption system will do to him exactly what they did to Trump.
Every Republican nominee is "Hitler." Even milquetoast weenies like Bush Sr and Bush Jr. They are all "Hitler" when they oppose the left's lie machine.
Think about how to actually achieve the goal you want rather than simply raging at the people who are opposing those goals.
The goals I want is to see liberals heads explode and watch them die from strokes. DeSantis will take too long to make that happen. Trump will do it very quickly.

Exactly right. The power of DC has always been the problem.
A judge would have to approve.
Not a problem. They have a lot of corrupt judges that would approve political raids.
