One state rejected ballots because some voters failed to include their mother’s maiden name on the back of the return envelope.

Letters from an American September 29, 2026 Full letter available here: heathercoxrichardson.substack.com/p… @hcrichardson.bsky.social
The scene that unfolded today at a hearing before the Senate Judiciary Committee was a snapshot of politics in the U.S. today.   Testifying under oath was Jack Smith, who as special counsel for the U.S. Department of Justice investigated Trump’s attempt to overturn the results of the 2020 presidential election and his retention of classified documents after he left office in 2021.Questioning Smith were the senators, whose speech in Congress is protected by Article I, Section 6 of the U.S. Constitution.  It’s unclear why Senate Republicans thought it was a good idea to remind people of Trump’s attempt to overthrow an election when the midterms are less than forty days away. Some of them, though, clearly intended to appeal either to Trump or to the MAGA base by using their protected speech to insult and abuse Smith.Senator Eric Schmitt (R-MO) launched a hit on Smith, setting up the idea he was part of a conspiracy with Fulton County, Georgia, district attorney Fani Willis and her colleague Nathan Wade to persecute Trump.  Schmitt asked Smith: “Did you go to an NBA game between the Golden State Warriors and the Atlanta Hawks on February 3, 2024?”  Smith looked confused at the sudden turn in the hearing and asked Schmitt to repeat the question.Read more about what Jack Smith had to say at the hearing. Letters from an American September 29, 2026. Link in bio.
