Clark argued in court filings that attorney discipline proceedings are being “weaponized” against Trump’s allies. His lawyer, Harry MacDougald, said in a closing argument Thursday that the case was “laden with political overtones.”
Clark faces a range of potential punishment, from a written warning to disbarment. Losing his law license could hamper Clark’s ability to win a high post in a second Trump administration.
“This case is not about Mr. Clark having the wrong opinion,” Fox said in his closing argument. “What it’s about is his asserting facts of which there is absolutely no basis. And to try to put the weight of the United States Department of Justice behind those false assertions.”

Maybe they can string things out until after the election.
Does the person have to have a law license to fill any legal position where the president has a need?
After Pres. Biden took the oath of office, “they” hit the ground running, like immediately, and didn’t waste any time signing E.O.s and filling positions. To date, they also haven’t made a lot of personnel changes.
Pres. Trump did not do that in 2017.
If elected, I pray that he has his people in place and will do the exact same thing...take the oath then take a flame thrower to the place on the same day.
To get any other things done, we have to keep the House and take the Senate....and right now, that doesn’t seem to be getting any ink.
Seems true enough that the Lefties are trying to dirty up people they think Trump might use. Bottom line tho is that as President, Trump couldn’t give a bleep about what the DC Bar thinks about much of anything. Appoint away!
