Biden's political knife-woman also stabbed her husband, and lied about it to Congress

Joe Biden's civil rights chief at the Department of Justice, Kristen Clarke, has always been a problem.

She's been hauled into Congress for her draconian, flimsy and politicized prosecutions of pro-life activists, effectively acting as Joe Biden's knifewoman to punish his political pro-life enemies as if on a political mission closely connected to Joe Biden's bid to stick it to his political opponents.

I wrote about her record of it here.

Now we learn she's quite the knifewoman in a more literal sense, and a leading congressmember says she lied about it under oath.

Assistant Attorney General Kristen Clarke admitted Wednesday that she was arrested and chose not to disclose the legal matter during her Senate confirmation process because it had been expunged from her record.

During her 2021 confirmation process, Clarke, who heads the Justice Department’s civil rights division, was asked by Sen. Tom Cotton (R-Ark.) in a questionnaire if she’d “ever been arrested for or accused of committing a violent crime against any person.”

Clarke responded, “No.”

The Daily Signal reported Tuesday that Clarke was arrested in Maryland in relation to a domestic violence complaint back in 2006.

The outlet cited court documents, her ex-husband Reginald Avery and text messages between Avery and the head of the American Accountability Foundation, a conservative nonprofit group.

Avery told the outlet that his finger was “sliced to the bone” after Clarke allegedly came at him with a knife after he revealed that he was cheating on her.

Charges against Clarke were dropped, and more than a year later, she filed paperwork that would wipe the arrest from her record.

So she only tried to do a late-term abortion on her husband.

...because it had been expunged from her record.

Could be time to find the judge who did the expunging.

Does anyone expect charges to be filed by ‘her’ Just Us Dept?
Let alone followed up by a conviction in the court of public opinion in the District of Corruption?

Naaah; I didn’t think so.

Mention state and zip to get connected.

Message: DOJ Clarke’s testifying falsely to Congress, falsifying govt documents about her arrest and jailing, her comments about racial superiority, and her role organizing a 1994 event at Harvard that hosted a professor who accused Jews of persecuting black people are troubling.

She should step down immediately.

Clarke falsely testifying indicates she apparently believes Americans
who pay her salary are too stupid to determine the facts.

Americans cannot tolerate a self-serving justice official with an utter contempt for its citizens.

What’s the issue. Criminal pasts have never been a bar to office in Nazi governments. No reason that Biden’s Nazis should be treated any differently.
