NEW: It's hard these days for members of Congress to transcend the news cycle with viral moments in committee hearings. Sen. Schmitt today raised the bar with an allegation against Jack Smith that imploded in real time. w/ Chris Marquette www.politico.com/news/2026/09...
politico.com
Republicans wanted Jack Smith to give them a smoking gun. They got a gaffe instead.
The former special counsel’s appearance before the Senate Judiciary Committee was marked by personal insults rather than new revelations.

There was a moment when the US was taken over by enemies and criminals, the incompetent, the corrupt, and the malevolent. They control our government now and will use every means at their disposal, legal and illegal, to try to stop the rest of us from restoring law, order, and decency to US society.

Sen. Amy Klobuchar just confirmed: Iowa played Maryland in College Park, MD. That's the basketball game Jack Smith seems to have attended. Atlanta was not involved. Republican Eric Schmitt claimed Smith went to a game in Atlanta so he could also meet with Fani Willis' team. It appears Schmitt lied.

OMG: Republican Senator Schmitt accused Jack Smith of being in ATL to conspire with Fani Willis b/c he got a text from JP Cooney about a “Hawks” game (Falcons?). Schmitt had a big visual aid but didn’t keep it up long. BUT smith was at an IOWA HAWKEYES game to see Caitlin Clark in Maryland HAHAHA

Gloria Steinem was one of the most remarkable people I ever met. She had this glowing aura of intellgience and charisma, you absolutely could not look away from her. But she never left behind her journalist's curiousity. She asked questions; she really listened. What a loss, but also what a life.
