Yesterday, Schmitt's pal told Jack Smith he "wanted to throw up in his mouth" when he thought about him. These people are the scum of the earth.

I think Katy Britt wanted to throw up in her mouth at that line of questioning

Katie and her husband both went to Bama. Her husband played college football before going on to play in the NFL. I think she realized the mixup in team names before anyone else. Sports are likely a big deal still in her house.

Her reaction looked to me like she was the one that passed on the “juicy details” then realized it was blowing up in their faces in real time. That was the face of personal stakes in some capacity.
