Top Biden DOJ Official in Hot Water After Failing to Disclose Past Arrest During Senate Confirmation
A top Biden administration Justice Department official was not truthful during her Senate confirmation process in 2021 when she said she had never been arrested for an alleged violent crime.
Assistant Attorney General for the Civil Rights Division Kristen Clarke has served in her position since May 2021.
However, according to news reports, she had an arrest record that was not disclosed when she was narrowly confirmed by the Senate, which led to calls for her resignation.
Clarke’s past became an issue earlier this week when The Daily Signal reported Tuesday she had previously been arrested and accused of slicing her former husband’s finger to the bone with a knife.
