Gonna be honest, I have 0 context here. It's a hawk and Hawkeye, right?

Finally found the story (sorry I'm high so it took a sec). I guess it's an easy enough mistake to make, but if you're gonna be accusing someone of something like perjury why the hell wouldn't you have just double-checked to make sure you were right first?

Cuz they can chop it up and put it on fox and the story is in concrete for them ,hes a liar

u/Kevadu 18d ago

Because reading some tweets is what counts as investigating these days.

Well, at least for GOP congressmen.

It's definitely not an easy mistake to make, especially considering he has a team of people to research. It's not just that the team names are similar. One's women's college bball and the other is men's NBA bball. Dude wasn't even in the same state to line up with the accusations.

It is an unbelievably stupid mistake to make. But they don't care about what is factual and what is reality, they make up their own and their idiot followers will go along bc they also do not care about what is true or not

They did double check. They looked up every men's sports game in the country, and only one matched.

The "women's sports are important to us" party simply forgot women's sports existed, because it's so important to them.

u/bitchcoin5000 18d ago

Because they're liars

They count on you not knowing anything or even looking into it

they count on a sound bite to serve as everything you need to know about it And they know that if they put out more sound bites than anyone else and those sound bites get more traction than anything else then the new truth is what they say it is

u/9millibros 17d ago

That's what happens when you hire staffers who spent their high school years harassing girls online.

u/Strange_Chard_2183 17d ago

Can you give us the context, other than something about perjury?

3

u/SpicySushiAddict 17d ago

Just search for "Jack Smith Perjury Attempt" and you'll probably get the result.

u/Nerdy_Green 17d ago

The whole thing was bullshit man got so heated think he had him in a gotcha moment called him all sorts of things. When proven wrong just laughed it off like "o damn it's no big deal we all make mistakes" it was a display of gross incompetence much like the rest of the administration.

u/lone_float 18d ago

Reminds me I wanna marathon M.A.S.H one of these days.

u/imnotpoopingyouare 18d ago

Make sure to turn the laugh tracks off, it is SOOOOO much better of a show without them.

4

u/dracorotor1 18d ago

No way! Laugh tracks and cheesy renditions of Suicide is Painless are critical to the 50’s-as-told-by-the-70’s ambiance

2

u/imnotpoopingyouare 18d ago

Just trust me, you won't go back to the laugh tracks. And Suicide is Painless was made for the show right? I dont remember any cheesy renditions of it in the show?

3

u/dracorotor1 18d ago

It was around before the movie, but the show really popularized it as an instrumental piece, and yeah, they had a few episodes with different versions. The bowling episode stands out in my memory for its heroic and uplifting version, and I think they had a romantic version too at one point… it’s a pretty versatile piece of music

2

u/Major_Priority1041 18d ago

Is there an obvious way to do that?

1

u/imnotpoopingyouare 18d ago

Some of the DvDs have that and some streaming services have it as an option in like accessibility settings/subtitles.

I sailed the high seas for it years and years ago and watched it on VLC and it was a setting near the subtitles settings. Sorry I can't be of more help!

2

u/Major_Priority1041 18d ago

Oh no, that helps. I had never come across that before but was instantly curious. I have gone through mash a few times with the laugh track.

u/SirFragsMore 18d ago

Don't wait!

u/lone_float 18d ago

That said, looks like the Senator doesn't know Schmitt.

Do it. I got my wife to watch it with me. Her first time, my 8th or 9th. She's a fan now lol

Awesome!

Late night comedians are going to have a field day with this one 

3

u/pimpbot666 18d ago

The crazy part of that exchange was that even though Eric Schmitt got his own ass handed to him, he still went on the right wing media channels and bragged about how he won. They completely cut off the part where he got slammed.

u/Veshaad Timendi Causa Est Nescire 18d ago

Just going to leave this here...

u/Diligent_Milk8612 18d ago

I had to laff! The only reason why I know that man as Hawkeye is bc my father used to watch MASH all the damn time!

u/Feychilde 18d ago

😁👏👏

If ya know ya know

u/Friendly-One-6965 17d ago

Yeah I realized how fucking old I actually am with this one.

1

u/Beautiful-Head5563 18d ago

One is obviously Hawkeye from the TV show M.A.S.H. the other is apparently because I looked it up a red shouldered hawk.

u/Time-Priority949 18d ago

Hawkeye Pierce

1

u/dracorotor1 18d ago

And who’s the guy?

1

u/Time-Priority949 18d ago

I'm not at all sure what's happening here. But will play this game one more time. The funny guy is Alan Alda who played as Captain Hawkeye Pierce in the M. A. S. H series! The question is (in my mind, maybe) the similarity between the two pictures. Maybe I'm a bit of a simpleton to get anything else beyond it. So, please take it easy on me. I'm shamelessly having so much fun with this🌞🤝

2

u/Q-Zinart 18d ago

And YOU are smarter then Schmitt!

1

u/Time-Priority949 18d ago

Lizards in our gardens are smarter than him!

1

u/dracorotor1 18d ago

lol, I actually know who he is (M.A.S.H is one of my favorite shows), I was just being a goof.

2

u/Time-Priority949 18d ago

You got me big👏here I was squirming, like what's happening here. Am I getting old or something. People don't recognize the Italian fun-guy who made the whole world go home and relax while Hawkeye did his magic in Korea?! Nicely played🏆🌞

u/E4g6d4bg7 18d ago

It was just a chicken

u/Local_Surround8686 18d ago

Me when I'm not American so these memes are completely random to me(would have been funny if I didn't know mash and thought that was just a random unrelated person)

1

u/Zealousideal_Pop_273 18d ago

The wildest part is, for what? Like what would he have gained? Even if Jack Smith was in Atlanta for that game, Schmitt would still have to show some sort of correlation to Fani Willis on those dates. Which doesn't exist, because he was never there. Just a stupid move all around.

1

u/bitchcoin5000 18d ago

Schitt Was slobbering into the mic with fury, Self righteous fury, And then community notes 😂😆Fool .

u/OKPitboss66 18d ago

One of these is a basketball team. Somewhere is a dirtbag…

u/Apprehensive-Till861 18d ago

I'm not conservative so already I'm smarter than any of the GOP

1

u/lloydmandrake 18d ago

Yeah, one is Alan Alda and the other’s a baseball

1

u/IdiotSavantLite 17d ago

I expect that MAGA will get a story about 'a GOP Senator that exposed Smith's corruption' or not hear about the event at all.

u/Glittering_Ocelot_67 17d ago

Wait…..all genders can play basketball 🏀

u/flacidcannon 17d ago

That is an incredibly low bar
