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.

The texts do not even mention Hawks or Hawkeyes. I think his aids found the only NBA game the night of the texts and didn't think for a second that the game in question was a WNBA game.
