Was reading the DC Bar report on the Jeff Clark disbarment (s3.documentcloud.org/documents/26...) and it has one of the more detailed descriptions of what was happening pre-Jan 6th that I’ve seen.
This statement for example jumped out at me given what Gabbard has said lately—

Well it is packaged with a full repeal of vehicle GHG standards and they did do a benefit-cost analysis for that.

This is just an absolute disgrace of access journalism.
You don’t provide anonymity to the WH to make ridiculous claims about how great they are. If someone wants this in the story they can put their name on this BS.
