Also, what was the alleged link between the Hawks game and Willis? Was she there?? Or was the allegation that he went to see a game in Atlanta so it must have been a secret meeting with Willis? I’m so confused on the evidentiary logic

Sahil Kapur@sahilkapur.bsky.social

A phenomenal moment in the Senate. Eric Schmitt, R-Mo., claims he has evidence Jack Smith went to a HAWKS game in Atlanta. Smith denies it. Schmitt declares he has busted Jack Smith for perjury. Smith, vexed, says he went to HAWKEYES game in Maryland. WATCH IN FULL, UNINTERRUPTED

I had to work a bit to freeze enough of that board Schmit's aide held up for 2 seconds to read what it said, and there was absolutely nothing on it that I could see constituting evidence of any kind, no matter where Smith may have been that day. Definitely a debasing self-own by a sitting Senator.

That’s what I have been asking! Even if he did go to the NBA game…what’s it prove?

I think they convinced themselves it was the Clinton/Loretta Lynch airport tarmac meeting, except courtside.

Everything said--from Trump to Laura Loomer to the congressional sycophants we saw today and see everyday--is about creating insinuations, associations, conspiracy theories and BS that their base will believe. There is NOTHING about TrumpWorld that has ANYTHING to do with provable facts.

As the good senator says from the types of history that he ironically quotes, "First you find the man, then you find the crime." He is making it his job to find Mr. Smith guilty of some kind of crime.

It appears that the inference is that he because he was in Atlanta (which he was not), he must have been there for the purpose of speaking with Willis. Because she's the only person who resides in Atlanta, apparently.

Schmitt’s premise was Smith went to Atlanta to have a “secret” meeting with Willis so of course showed himself in public and went to an NBA game. It never made sense let alone how off he was with his facts. Buried because of Schmitt’s incompetence; Jack Smith did great. Distraction didn’t work.

Of course Jack Smith gave Fani Wills a wide berth, but if he hadn't , he definitely would not have lied about it under oath. Not because he is ethical (though I believe he is), but because he is too good a lawyer not to know better.

ANTIFA vs.ℙ𝔼𝔻𝕆 ℙ𝕆𝕋𝕌𝕊 @breathfartnews.bsky.social · 21m

I believe they were hoping he would deny he was in Atlanta so that that would be the perjure. And the reason he would deny being in Atlanta is because he had something to hide. Like meeting with Fanny willis.

For Senator Schmitt, we quote this today: Deep Throat: "The truth is, these are not very bright guys, and things got out of hand." And, in honor of Lloyd Bentsen, we paraphrase him: "Senator Schmitt, I watched "My Cousin Vinnie, and you're no Cousin Vinnie."
