So it turns out that when Eric Schmitt thought Jack Smith snuck off for a secret meeting to conspire with Fani Willis he was actually in Maryland watching Caitlin Clark play basketball.

Did you go to Atlanta? Smith: No Did you meet Fani Willis? Smith: I’ve never met her. Did you go to the Atlanta Hawks game? Smith: I’ve never been to an Atlanta Hawks game. Perjury, dirtbag!!!

You would think at some point MAGA would get tired of the incompetent buffoons they have representing them. But it seems like they’ve pretty much just accepted it as part of their brand.

Eric Schmitt tried to show his bona fides as a hard, testosterone-fueled fascist to take down Jack Smith. It backfired. Kudos to Sen. Amy Klobuchar's real time correction of Schmitt's deception, and to Sen. Cory Booker who brought fire to the Republicans' witch trial.

I can't stand Schmitt, but those two frat-boy staffers behind him make me really fear for the future. They probably ordered people around, making them produce that conspiracy bullshit panel, thinking they were 'big boys' now... without ever checking the facts. I'd laugh, but it's just too sad.

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.”

Sen. Eric Schmitt was so overzealous to try and get Jack Smith, a good and honest man who has done great work, that Schmitt embarrassed himself by accusing Smith of going to the wrong basketball game. You can't make this stuff up. And right wing media will pretend it never happened.

Eric Schmitt is REALLY hoping no one watched the hearing this morning. This ditzy host evidently didn't watch Amy Klobuchar fry Schmidtt up for breakfast. And in a super manly move this host called Jack Smith a dirtbag because apparently his mouth-breather audience has a middle-school vocabulary.

Jack Smith made it crystal clear that his investigation was sound and lawful, that the president had committed crimes and that the GOP attacks on him were the actual weaponization of our justice system. He showed courage and moral clarity and continues to be one of the heroes of this moment.
