Former Justice Department (DOJ) attorney Jeffrey Clark, who recently won a bid to block a subpoena from D.C. bar authorities, says the legal efforts targeting him and former President Donald Trump amount to “lawfare.”
“Lawfare draws on Maoist and Alinskyite tactics. It’s an attempt not really aimed at disciplining lawbreakers (to see that, witness the rampant crime in New York City) but to destroy political enemies. And no one faces more of it than Trump,” Mr. Clark told The Epoch Times in a statement.
The D.C. Circuit Court of Appeals’ three-judge panel ruled last month that the subpoena issued by the D.C. Bar Disciplinary Counsel “infringes on Mr. Clark’s Fifth Amendment right not to be compelled to be a witness against himself” as he defends himself in court cases stemming from the 2020 election.
