Jeffrey Clark, a former U.S. Department of Justice attorney and a figure associated with former President Trump, is undergoing a disciplinary trial with the District of Columbia Bar’s Office of Disciplinary Counsel starting from March 26. The trial has seen notable developments, including testimony from former acting Attorney General Jeff Rosen. Clark has been invoking the Fifth Amendment, refusing to answer questions during the proceedings. His lawyer has sought to prevent the repeated assertion of the Fifth Amendment to avoid unnecessary media attention. The context of the trial ties back to Clark's actions prior to the January 6 Capitol attack, where he was considered by Trump for the position of acting attorney general.
