Wouldn't it be a hoot if in 2030 or so Jack Smith prosecutes Trump and Hegseth for war crimes at the International Criminal Court. (From 2008 to 2010 Smith prosecuted war criminals at the ICC.) #inners

J Neely Kennedy & Ted Cruz owe Sen Eric Schmitt flowers and a thank you note. Otherwise they'd be in the running for "Asshole of the Day" Josh Hawley owes Schmitt flowers and a thank you for keeping him from being called the worst senator from Missouri. #inners

🤡 Schmitt beclowns himself 🤡 Schmitt concocted an elaborate conspiracy theory that Smith traveled to Atl for a Hawks game and to collude with Fani Willis, & flashed his "evidence" before accusing Smith of perjury. There's just one problem -- his facts were totally wrong. Here's the whole sequence:

It's inconceivable to me how someone who lost in a free & fair election can incite an angry mob to attack his own government, (the very definition of treason) & be allowed to run for any office ever again.

Before calling someone a “dirtbag,” the Senator should have had his facts straight. An apology is in order. Glad one of us knew the difference between the Atlanta Hawks and the Iowa Hawkeyes!

I didnt know it gets funnier than a whole ass United States Senator accusing a man of being at a Hawks game in ATL when he was at a Hawkeyes game in MD, BUT... He let every media outlet know he had a big moment coming so they all saw him clown himself and watched Amy Klobuchar clean up the pieces.

Sen. SCHMITT: We have texts saying you attended an Atlanta Hawks game in February 2024. Former Special Counsel Jack Smith: I believe it was a Maryland-Iowa game. Sen. KLOBUCHAR: The Iowa HAWKeyes. Perhaps the Senator from Missouri should have looked at these texts more carefully.

holy shit -- turns out Jack Smith went to a Hawkeyes game in Maryland but Schmitt's team is so reckless they concocted a conspiracy theory that Smith was actually in Atlanta seeing a Hawks game and colluding with Fani Willis. Klobuchar points out to Schmitt, "you have your teams wrong."

Klobuchar has Schmitt dead to rights: "The game in fact was in Maryland. For a senator to have false information & imply, based on confusion about name of a team, that you were in another city & somehow involved that day in what was happening in Georgia & call you a 'dirtbag' deserves an apology"
