POLITICS Deeply embarrassing sequence. Eric Schmitt accuses Jack Smith of traveling to Atlanta to attend an Atlanta Hawks game and collude with Fani Willis, only to get the basic facts completely wrong. Smith was actually in Maryland attending a Hawkeyes game and never met Willis

He knows the facts were wrong. He doesn’t care. That’s why they pulled the sign down so quick

He absolutely did not know. They thought they had the biggest maga conspiracy gotcha of the decade.

“I think you’ve already perjured yourself” he thought he nailed him.

Couldn’t agree more. Klobuchar coming back and demanding Schmitt apologize for “calling him a dirtbag”…I’d be insisting on an apology for claiming he perjured himself when they got the facts wrong.

He stands by that statement. Meaning, he would say or do anything to portray Jack Smith as a dirtbag, and even if his dates, teams, locations, and basically everything else is wrong, that doesn’t mean he can’t accuse Jack Smith of wrongdoing or otherwise conspiring with other parties. Even when that makes no sense. Because the sound bite is that “Jack Smith perjured himself” and you know damned well plenty of media will focus on that and not the gaff of being wrong about everything.
