It is glaringly clear that Jack Smith is a competent & honest man working in service to his country & fellow Americans. It is also just as clear that Republican Senator Schmidt is an incompetent fool & liar working in service to felon President Trump.

Jack Smith: "Our investigation developed proof beyond a reasonable doubt that President Trump engaged in serious crimes against our nation ... rather than accept his defeat in the 2020 election, he engaged in a criminal scheme to overturn the results and prevent the lawful transfer of power"

Bachman-Turner Overdrive releases “You Ain’t Seen Nothing Yet” 52 years ago today — a song originally used as a “work track” to set the amplifiers and mics. “We thought, just for fun .. I’d stutter” the ‘b-b-b-baby’ line, Randy Bachman said. It stuck. 🎸
