WOW!
Senator @SenBlumenthal: "The inciting of that mob and the riot was following his attempt to induce state officials -- this point is really important -- induce state officials to ignore the true vote count and manufacture fraudulent state electors, slaves in not just one or two, but seven separate states, correct? "
Jack Smith: "Yes."
Senator Blumenthal: "And again, these charges were not brought by you personally. They were the result of a grand jury indictment.
Maybe I'm wrong, Ted -- I'm not a Harvard Law guy and all -- but maybe the reason Democrats didn't show up in Jack Smith's investigation of Jan. 6 is because Democrats weren' trying to overthrow our democracy on behalf of Trump?
Could that explain it?
“It wasn’t a mistake”🤔
“Who knew Jack Smith was a Caitlin Clark fan?” 🤔
@Eric_Schmitt pathetically attempts to play it off and act like he didn’t publicly humiliate himself in front of the nation today 🤡
Jack Smith: "Our nondisclosure orders were not predicated on the idea that members of Congress or members of this committee would commit acts of obstruction. It was based on a real concern that Donald Trump and his associates would do that because they had done it and they did it again. Donald Trump, in our case, in the elections case, later suggested that a witness, General Mark Milley, should be put to death. He said, 'if you come after me, I'm coming after you.' Election workers in Georgia, Ruby Freeman and her daughter, faced vile, racist death threats because of the things that Donald Trump said and how he targeted her. We had an absolute basis to seek protection of our investigation from that sort of obstruction.
Darlene Graham with egg on her face. She wanted her gotcha moment in accusing Smith of illegally targeting her brother, Lindsey Graham only to find out he was most likely a Republican witness 😂🤣😂
BREAKING: JACK SMITH UNDER OATH: “Our investigation developed proof beyond a reasonable doubt that President Trump engaged in serious crimes against our nation.”
Chilling words.
Senator Dick Durbin at the Jack Smith Hearing just now:
“There are moments I’ll never forget. Twenty-five years ago, 9/11 was one of those moments when we were asked to evacuate the Capitol for fear of what might happen if the terrorists attacked.
“But the day I’ll also remember as long as I live is January 6, 2021, when this cathedral of democracy was overrun by violent insurrectionists at the direction of the President of the United States.”
I’m no fancy political scientist, but staging this hearing a month before the midterms, and reminding voters that their idiot president sent a battalion of clowns to storm the Capitol and shit in the hallways, doesn’t seem very smart.
If you can still support Republicans after Jack Smith said this, there is something wrong with you.
"We found that [Trump] caused that violence, that it was foreseeable to him, and that he sought to exploit it."
