🔥JACK SMITH: "Trump engaged in serious crimes against 🇺🇸- a criminal scheme to prevent a lawful transfer of power... the rule of law faces challenges unlike any we've experienced. I won't be silenced by threats of prosecution. While fear may be contagious, courage is as well."

Absolutely. If any Dem Member of Congress concocted a conspiracy theory based upon the assumption that going to a Hawkeyes basketball game necessarily meant going to Atlanta, it would be a week of TV spots and three months of op-ed columns about Dems' cultural disconnect.

Funniest part to me is Jack Smith using 110% of his lawyer brain. He avoids making the connection himself; he doesn't even say "Hawkeyes," he just says "Iowa." He knows it's better to let everyone figure it out on their own. He also knows from Klobuchar's grin that she'll dunk it for him.

I love that the U.S. government now has ideas so dumb that the fact checks are simply “yeah this isn’t a parody, it’s real”

This is the most remarkable story Ray Bradbury ever shared with me. He told it to me late one night, sitting in his den of antiquities and mementos. Take five minutes to read this. It’s pure magic. #Writing #Living #Creativity #RayBradbury #BookSky

Gobsmacked by the elite levels of not knowing ball in the Senate today, thinking an NBA team is called the Hawkeyes then, refusing to Google it, then accusing a guy of treason because you didn’t know the Iowa Lady Hawkeyes aren’t in the NBA. Somehow I don’t trust these people to Save Girls Sports.

Yeah. That’s exactly what happened.
After the hearing, Schmitt insisted he'd gotten nothing wrong, but he seemed less sure Smith had committed perjury.
"I don't know if Jack Smith's lying or not. It was the only game - Atlanta was the only NBA game or men's college basketball game that night at 7:30,
Schmitt told HuffPost.

This is connected to the Schmitt debacle from earlier - the Republican Party now talks only to itself using language that only they employ, everyone else is expected to follow along or have the power of the state come down on them

Eric Schmitt is on The Charlie Kirk Show (yes it's still called that) -- and believe it or not, hosts are pretending he owned Smith with his embarrassingly botched gotcha "You caught him in this NBA game too in Atlanta" "Yeah," Schmitt says There's no mention that Schmitt had all his facts wrong

This is hilarious - you can't make this up. Sen. Eric Schmidt (Missouri) just humiliated himself alleging falsely that Jack Smith was in Atlanta at an NBA "Hawks" game. Smith was in Maryland at a women's "Hawkeyes" game

Who says they “don’t make enough money”? Compared to what? You don’t need to grant the far right authoritarian party’s premise. You can write that they’re using arbitrary numbers based on no standards that should not be taken seriously, & you can just say that plainly instead of stenographizing
