He’s got a couple of outs with this response of course.

We had information… meaning that’s what he was told.

There was a game in ATL that night. Friday. If he was in Atlanta that night & did attend a Hawks game, that tracks. The only NBA game that night? There were 9 others, but only one played in Atlanta.

Not sure why he then goes on to talk about being a fan of college sports.. comes off as a typical politician talking about things just to hear himself speak.

What relevance is that to Jack Smith?

The guy is a dumbass.

He made a huge mistake. Didn’t verify anything and went off half cocked.

But then he doubled down on it despite how easy it is to disprove his claims.

You are not required to defend dumbassery. But you choose to.

No. It's what they interpreted from texts. The texts were the information

Which would only matter to someone trying to find evidence to prove a point instead of letting the evidence guide you.

That's the point they were trying to prove.

The problem is it's not correct.

Why does Atlanta matter? There was no evidence Smith was in Atlanta

Schmitt and his team were trying to find evidence to support a narrative that Smith was in Atlanta. This evidence did not exist because Smith was not, in fact, in ATL. However, Schmitt and his team tried to construct a false narrative around bad evidence, which is why they look like retards today.

What's worse is the arrogance prior to the retardation being revealed. This makes it exponentially worse.

Smith's accessing of lawmakers' phone records, the records of thousands of mom&pop republican donors, and those of journalists critical of Smith and Dems was Stasi-level stuff. Had a Republican done that, "journalists" would have gone nuclear about it. Smith also testified he was in full compliance with recommendations of the Public Integrity Section. He wasn't. Depending on phone transcripts, that may equate to perjury


At this point, blah fricking blah. Yes, Smith did horrible things...all of which were known before this hearing...except maybe the office of public integrity stuff. He qualified his answer enough that I don't think he could be convicted of perjury.

As always...why isn't the Trump DOJ prosecuting him?

These hearings are just political marketing at this point. Schmitt made sure that this was a catastrophe for Republicans.

Fewer care about Jack Smith and this is leading on all the major normie news so this is how the moderate Americans who don't really dig deep will see the hearings.

Wow a politician lied. How many lies do the dems spew on a daily basis and it never gets called out. Move on. Smith is guilty AF regardless of this narrative.

The grand jury indictments in Florida are worth a lot more politically for a low-IQ win than prosecuting Smith would be.

I don't think they can do both

Imagine voting for someone who is so stupid and willing to dig in on Fake News like this
There is plenty of actual material to use to go after Jack Smith, Fani Willis, etc yet this clown invents a lie.

Just stop. Look at the texts. There's nothing in there to indicate it was an NBA game.

He Schmitted by omitting the time of the texts. That's to imply that it had to be the Hawks game...even though there were FIVE other NBA games that evening...because the Hawks game was the only one that started at 7:30.

The texts concerned the Maryland/Iowa game that started at 8:00. The Bulls game that night was the only NBA game that started at 8:00.

So even pretending Schmitt isn't lying through his teeth, the logical inference would be that Smith was in Chicago...colluding with Willis.

The whole thing is an insult to honest people.

What a ridiculous standard. Let's bring that point home. Has Jack Smith released the actual evidence for me to review regarding his attendance of the Iowa-Maryland basketball game?

Based on what? What posts about Smith directly do you have to make this assessment?

You're spraying your shots wide of the target. I haven't defended that.

On the other hand, you are not required to play the role of a Patsy. But you choose to.
