GOP Senator's 'Gotcha' Moment Backfires During Jack Smith Hearing
Senator Eric Schmitt questioned Special Counsel Jack Smith about his attendance at a Golden State Warriors vs. Atlanta Hawks game on February 3, 2024, as part of an attempt to prove Smith was meeting with DA Fani Willis in Atlanta.
Schmitt alleged he possessed text messages indicating Smith's presence in Atlanta, and accused Smith of perjury and weaponizing the Department of Justice, going so far as to call him a 'dirt bag'.
Smith, however, clarified he was actually attending a University of Maryland vs. University of Iowa women's basketball game, featuring the 'Hawkeyes', around the same time.
