READ: Letter Jeffrey Clark Circulated At DOJ In Attempted Georgia Coup

A drafted letter circulated by a top Department of Justice official in the Trump administration puts in stark terms the effort to hand the Republican-led Georgia legislature an opportunity to overturn the election results.

Jeffrey Clark, then an acting assistant attorney general, pushed then-acting Attorney General Jeffrey Rosen and his deputy Richard Donoghue to sign the letter pushing Georgia lawmakers to convene a special session of the state legislature to throw President Joe Biden’s win into doubt.

The December 2020 letter, along with emails sent between the three officials, was first reported by ABC News.

The letter lists that a special session should evaluate the “irregularities” of the 2020 election, “determine whether those violations show which candidate for President won the most legal votes in the November 3 election” and ultimately determine whether the election failed to make a “proper and valid choice” between Trump and Biden, leaving it up to the GOP-majority legislature whether to overrule the election results and send Congress a slate of Trump electors instead.

Clark is now at a right-wing legal group where he’s fighting vaccine mandates.
