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.

You may have seen a few familiar MAGA faces distance themselves from Trump this past week. Marjorie Taylor Greene. Peter Thiel. Sen. John Kennedy. But hold your applause for now, because their courage just happened to show up when the cost of speaking out got cheap. (link below)

It's inconceivable to me how someone who lost in a free & fair election can incite an angry mob to attack his own government, (the very definition of treason) & be allowed to run for any office ever again.

One thing is clear: elected Republicans are STILL all in on defending January 6th as nothing more than a “spirited debate.” One can safely assume that means they will also be in support of the NEXT insurrection. These MFers MUST be held accountable on November 3rd, 2026.

Let me make sure I have this right. Trump siphoned money away from our troops and gave it to DHS to fund his cruel immigration agenda. Then they took money from DHS... and used it to pay for a partisan political ad five weeks before the election.

How is possible that GOP Senator Eric Schmitt had a whole ass team working on today's hearing with Jack Smith and not one of them--including Schmitt--knows the difference between the Iowa Hawkeyes and the Atlanta Hawks? Do none of these people watch sports?

Jack Smith is testifying before the Senate this morning, and a GOP Senator just grilled him about being at an Atlanta Hawks game in ATL, and accused him of perjury bc he denied this was the case. Turns out, it was an Iowa HAWKEYES game in Maryland. These are the most unserious people ever.

🤡 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:
