WARNING: Do NOT try this at home. Sen. Schmitt brought a poster board, a perjury trap & zero fact-checkers. Result? Atlanta Hawks ≠ Iowa Hawkeyes. Jack Smith was watching Caitlin Clark in Maryland. Lesson: Research first. Gloat second. Or you ARE the cautionary tale.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH. HAHAHAHAHAH. Eric Schmitt just accused Jack Smith of lying about going to an Atlanta Hawk's basketball game. Smith went to see the Iowa Hawkeyes.

🤡 Schmitt beclowns himself 🤡 Schmitt concocted an elaborate conspiracy theory that Smith traveled to Atl for a Hawks game and to collude with Fani Willis, & flashed his "evidence" before accusing Smith of perjury. There's just one problem -- his facts were totally wrong. Here's the whole sequence:

Congresswoman Zoe Lofgren calls for the removal of climate denier Matthew Wielicki as head of the US govt's climate research office. Wielicki has no training in climate science, and regularly uses AI to invent non-existent sources to support his claims.

The #NFL rule against landing with weight on the QB is the worst. The Chiefs were just bailed out by flag on a normal hit on a QB.

Sen. Duckworth endorses the idea that Democrats should, once again, do nothing about Republican lawlessness. This is how Democrats keep losing. This is _not_ what the public wants. I don't vote for Democrats to help Trump "save face". Trump is a rapist, murderer, and a criminal. Don't respect him!

Trump's panicking about the widespread revulsion against his Arch, and is trying to cloak it in national security to jam it through or go around the normal approval process. It's even more important to stop it now, as a test case of not letting him use "national security" to justify illegal acts.

All of this is a lie. Anyone who has visited recently knows the KC was not "in a virtual state of collapse," and anyone who can read a tax filing can see that it was not "losing hundreds of millions of dollars". In fact, its finances were pretty healthy UNTIL Trump trashified it.

Well, all of Maye's picks have been bad. No idea what he was thinking on the last one. Even if we blame the 2nd one on Doubs, it was Maye's terrible throw. Worst case without that pick was a FG try for OT. Just a _terrible_ decision.
