Klobuchar: “For a US senator to have false information and imply, based on a confusion about the name of a team … and imply that you were in another city, that you were somehow involved that day in what was happening in Georgia, and then call you a dirtbag, is something that deserves an apology.”

Correct me if I’m wrong here, but when it pans to where Schmidt was sitting, his chair is empty? He was right by Katie Britt… He didn’t even stick around??? Bro knows he muffed it and had to split to escape further humiliation.

It's not so much that Senator Eric Schmitt mixed up sports teams and cities- although it does show he doesn't do his job and relies on others to do it for him- It's that he was a complete bully, asshole, and pompous prick while making accusations. And then when wrong, offered no apology, doubling

Sen. Eric Schmitt accused Smith of perjury and called him a dirtbag. His trap fell apart, however, just as a camera zoomed in on Sen. Britt.

Schmitt’s attempted maneuver this morning deserves ridicule, but there’s a more serious aspect to it. He was trying to frame Jack Smith. This was no innocent mistake, but part of a calculated effort to bear false witness against a person in order to harm the credibility of his work and character.

I heard through the grapevine that Sen. Eric Schmitt has 18 staffers on his legislative team: 17 men and one woman. The woman on his staff deals exclusively with foreign policy, which means today's disaster during the hearing was all by conservative men who don't know sports.

🤡 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:

First eyewitness accounts from this afternoon’s ICE shooting in Austin is here, from freelance reporter Emiliano Tahui Gómez.

Combined tweets, cutting tags and other such

Here in North Austin, where ICE agents appear to have shot an individual in his car. I spoke to two of the only witnesses.

Nedevia Bolaños and her husband, Carlos, own a business just off the intersection where the shooting happened. Shortly before 1 pm they says they heard what sounded like two gunshots. Carlos ran out first. A blue Toyota sedan and a black Escalade were stopped under the highway.Combined tweets, cutting tags and other such
 
He said he saw an olive-skinned man, seemingly in his 30s, leaning backwards against his seat. A masked agent was standing outside the car. The agent refused to answer questions. Within a few minutes as many as 10 other ICE agents arrived.

Carlos asked the victim if he was ok. "Yes," the man said in Spanish, but he looked exhausted. Carlos asked why they had shot him. "Because I didn't stop."Combined tweets, cutting tags and other such. 

Bolaños ran up next. She said she continously asked the ICE agents about why they'd shot him and if they were going to render aid. They didn't answer her. It was an APD officer who later arrived and cut open the young mans shirt, revealing a deep hole between his shoulder blades. The ambulance arrived about 10 minutes after and carried him off. "I've never seen all this. Thank God I'm a citizen," Bolaños said in Spanish. "Or I'd be living like this. In a dream of terror."

Again, it’s not just that this Tesla asshole killed a mother and her child with his recklessness. It’s that as his victims were dying, he did nothing to help them and instead sat scrolling through his phone.
Another family member noted that at the crash scene, “Chernicky stood idly by complaining of his knee and scrolling through his phone. He offered no assistance. He killed my family members. I believe he is a threat to this community, and deserves to remain in custody.”
