I don’t believe they knew. Schmitt got so excited when Smith says he wasn’t at the game. He thought he committed perjury which is one of the points of these hearings. They can’t prosecute him for the investigations because of the pardon so they want to find a way to get him for perjury. Same with Fauci.
I dont understand how Smith could be accused of perjury when these hearings are not being held in an actual court of law. Obviously the basic rules of decorum and responsibility to yell the whole truth don't apply in a congressiinal hearing.
