You just know Schmitt had prebooked this show along with probably Ingraham and Hannity to launch his media tour after his big gotcha moment on Jack Smith that was going to propel him to be Vance's running mate. Instead, it's the Clown Show Power Hour. bsky.app/profile/atru...

GOP Sen. Eric Schmitt accused Jack Smith of perjury, claiming he had evidence Smith secretly went to an Atlanta Hawks game. Then it all backfired in real-time.

Eric Schmitt accused Jack Smith of perjury over supposed evidence placing him at an Atlanta Hawks game. There was just one problem: It was the Iowa Hawkeyes.

Explosives were strapped to one prisoner’s leg and detonated. Russians then practiced applying a tourniquet and bandaging the wound. Another prisoner was shot in an artery near the armpit, while another was used for knife training - Russians practiced stabbing a person in the heart.

A former Wagner fighter, now in Ukrainian captivity, said Russian mercenaries in Mali used captured Africans as live subjects for brutal "tactical medicine training." In 2023-2024, Russian instructors deliberately maimed African prisoners, after which the mercenaries practiced stopping bleeding.
