After Eric Schmitt's colossal fuck-up today, Rudy Giuliani is breathing a [wheezy] sigh of relief about the whole Four Seasons thing.

Here’s your reminder that Jon Husted has taken 10x more money from an Epstein co-conspirator than any other sitting Senator. No wonder he voted against releasing the Epstein files.

At least Tommy Tuberville, Cindy Hyde-Smith & Marsha Blackburn have the excuses that they were a football coach, a farmer, and a home ec major. Eric Schmitt is a goddamned lawyer. He a a state attorney general, for God's sake.

THIS WAS MONEY FOR CHILDREN’S HEALTHCARE. A Florida grand jury found $10 MILLION meant to help provide health insurance for poor children was misappropriated for political purposes. Moody & DeSantis took money meant for kids. #GOPWarOnHealthcare

I know this will shock everyone but Eric Schmitt is still wrong — there were *six* NBA games that night, not one. Hawks/Hawkeyes confusion remains the likely explanation. www.basketball-reference.com/boxscores/?m...

Schmitt: We had information Jack Smith was at a basketball game. There was only one NBA game that night which is why I asked him if he was in Atlanta.
That's what these hearings are for. You ask questions, you get answers. Smith has perjured himself before, but... maybe he's a Caitlin Clark fan. We'll accept that.x.com/Acyn/status/21...

This is priceless. Check out how local news is reporting on Sen Eric Schmidt’s clown-show grilling of Jack Smith. They found Jack Smith at the game… “Top corner, section 109, row 1. In fact, that seat doesn’t even exist in Atlanta.”

A phenomenal moment in the Senate. Eric Schmitt, R-Mo., claims he has evidence Jack Smith went to a HAWKS game in Atlanta. Smith denies it. Schmitt declares he has busted Jack Smith for perjury. Smith, vexed, says he went to HAWKEYES game in Maryland. WATCH IN FULL, UNINTERRUPTED

Corporations spend more than $1.5B a year on union-busting. That’s $1.5B they could have spent on higher wages, better benefits, and improving workplace safety. Remember: if they weren’t so scared of worker power, they wouldn’t fight so hard against unions. Kudos to these Autozone workers.
