While grilling former special counsel Jack Smith on his time prosecuting cases against President Donald Trump, Sen. Eric Schmitt, R-Mo., accused Smith of lying about his attendance at an Atlanta Hawks game in Georgia. In reality, Smith attended an Iowa Hawkeyes game in another state.

Iowa Hawkeyes. Atlanta Hawks. Not the same team, not even the same state. Get your facts straight before calling someone a dirtbag. Instead of this distraction, we should have hearings on health care costs, 8 million Americans losing coverage, and tariffs crushing our farmers.
