At a time when the most influential leaders of the U.S. need to stand up loudly and clearly for the rule of law, they are leading the charge in the opposite direction. But not Jack Smith. Kudos to him for continuing to be a much needed voice of clarity.

Laugh at Eric Schmitt and Co. for Hawkeyes/Hawks, sure. Their screw up is funny and they deserve the mockery. But also, this was the GOP and allied media geared up to defend a coup attempt with lies and jail a prosecutor because he tried to enforce the law against a criminal. How far we've fallen.

MAGA Star Strikes Out Revealing GOP Blunders in Shocking Gaffe
A recent hearing featuring Republican Senator Eric Schmitt of Missouri has ignited a wave of scrutiny, following a blunder that laid bare his party’s talking points against former special counsel Jack Smith. The incident, caught on live television, quickly drew attention from both political analysts and social media influencers. During the hearing, Schmitt made a critical claim implicating Smith in potential perjury, suggesting that Smith had been present in Atlanta during a significant event involving Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis.

Listen, it's a serious accusation to claim someone is lying and conspiring in front of all of Congress. You better bring receipts to back that up. Unfortunately for Schmitt, this video completely vindicates Smith and proves Schmitt the liar. Smith should sue.
