Lets be honest anyone who calls themselves a Christian nationalist should be ineligible for federal office because their beliefs make it impossible to hold an oath to the Constitution which not only calls for freedom of religion but keeping religion & government separate

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.

I do not dispute for one second that many, many Jews support Israel and that antizionist Jews like myself are a minority. It’s very depressing. But almost 40% of Jews under 45 say Israel is committing genocide — that’s a higher rate than the U.S. population at large.

Schmitt had a losing track record as an AG. Figures, based on his shady gotcha performance today in the judiciary committee. And, Senator Kennedy from Louisiana joined in on his bogus hatchet job on Jack Smith.
As Missouri Attorney General and later U.S. Senator, Eric Schmitt's most notable high-profile legal losses include a dismissed COVID-19 lawsuit against China and a rejected effort to block Medicaid expansion. * Wikipedia +1
Major Cases Lost or Rejected
• COVID-19 Lawsuit Against China (2022): A federal judge dismissed Schmitt's April 2020 lawsuit that attempted to hold the Chinese government and Wuhan institutions responsible for the pandemic. The court ruled it lacked subject-matter jurisdiction under the Foreign Sovereign Immunities Act. M Missouri Independent +1
• Medicaid Expansion Defense (2021): Schmitt argued that Missouri lawmakers and the governor could legally refuse to fund and implement a voter-approved constitutional amendment expanding Medicaid. The Missouri Supreme Court unanimously rejected his position.
Wikipedia
• School Mask Mandate Lawsuits (2022): Schmitt filed dozens of lawsuits against local school districts over COVID-19 mask mandates. He ultimately dropped almost all of them (all but three of 47) as legal challenges stalled or met strong pushback and counterclaims from local authorities.
