According to a report from the Guardian, former Department of Justice official Jeffrey Clark is facing increasing pressure from DOJ investigators over his part in attempts to help Donald Trump steal the 2020 presidential election with one of his former colleagues more than willing to provide information about him.

According to the new report, former high-ranking DOJ official Ken Klukowski has been very forthcoming about what was going on behind the scenes as the scenario played out.

"Clark, whose cellphone and other electronic equipment was seized by federal agents in a June search on his home, worked with former DoJ lawyer Ken Klukowski, who is now cooperating with prosecutors, on a draft letter to top Georgia state legislators and the governor which falsely claimed that department had 'significant concerns' about election fraud there and in other states," he wrote, with former federal prosecutor Michael Zeldin saying putting pressure on Clark could net investigators more information that could expand the investigation.
When pursuing conspiracy cases, prosecutors look for weak links among the co-conspirators, to wit, people willing to cooperate. The closer to the hub of the conspiracy, the better, Zeldin said. In the case of the Georgia false electors scheme, the two people who jump out as logical witnesses are Ken Klukowski and Jeffrey Clark. Both appear to have been intimately involved in the scheme, and both have a great deal to lose if convicted of a crime.

I bet that as the noose tightens, Clark will also flip... Or try to, he does not strike me as the brightest so he may wait to long and his chance may be gone.
