BREAKING: “YOU’RE TINY, YOU’RE SMALL, YOU SHRINK!” Eric Swalwell absolutely eviscerates his cowardly Republican colleagues for lying about what they REALLY think about Donald Trump! https://t.co/tu8jpMOOFt
Tensions ran high during today’s examination of Special Counsel Jack Smith, where the Republicans on the Judiciary Committtee put on a hysterical show of rage and fury at the idea that evil communist agent Jack Smith would DARE to besmirch their God King Donald Trump with criminal accusations about acts we all saw him commit on live television.
Democrats were furious that this ridiculous show trial was happening at all — especially since they know their colleagues don’t even believe any of this.
California’s Eric Swalwell tore into his GOP colleagues in a stunning takedown, exposing their hypocrisy and their cowardice for the entire nation to see.
“Mr. Smith, I want you to have the utmost confidence in what you did. You did everything right. Harry Dunn, Danny Hodges, Sergeant Cannell, Mike Fanon, they did everything right. These guys, my Republican colleagues, are a joke. They're wrong.”
“History will harshly judge them. So I want you to lean in today. You have nothing to be ashamed of. You did everything right, And I am so — these guys are so lucky they're not under oath, because they would have to tell you what they really think of Trump.”
“They call him crooked. They call him cruel. They call him a scumbag. I've heard you all say it. You're lucky you're not under Trump, but when the lights go on and the cameras are on, you're tiny. You're small. You shrink. Everyone remembers Matt Gaetz coming over here after a committee hearing. He would laugh at how stupid he thought Trump was. This is all a show. And Mr. Smith, you're just the latest act that they've brought in.”
“But they can't erase what happened on January 6th because we saw it with our own eyes.”
MIC DROP!
Swalwell is absolutely right. The Republicans who stand by and enable Trump’s every illegal act are no better than the Weimar Republic German politicians who stood back and cheered Hitler’s rise to power, and history must judge the Republican Party just as harshly.
Trump's "Board of Peace": Belarus, Morocco, Vietnam, Kazakhstan, Hungary, Armenia, Egypt, Kosovo, Pakistan, Paraguay, Albania, Uzbekistan, Bahrain, Qatar, Indonesia.
This is what's left of America’s global standing after one year of Trump.
How the hell are people okay with these $1 billion checks being written to Jared Kushner and the Trump Criminal Enterprise for this fake peace clown committee announced today?
"How the hell are we putting up with this?" Gavin Newsom is correct. This is not a US presidency, it's a mobster running a criminal enterprise out of the White House. In American history, we've never seen a criminal like Trump. 😳👇
It appears the whole Putin “Ukraine tried to kill me with 91 drones last night” was entirely made up. And of course Trump repeated it and said he was mad at Ukraine.
Nightly Russia launched drones and missiles at innocent people.
And tried to Kill Zelensky every day
Spare me the gaslight
Trump still refuses to show the Epstein files. Just like he refused to concede. Just like he ordered the insurrection. Just like he stole the documents. Just like he colluded with Russia. Just like he was guilty of 34 counts.
None of it was a hoax. He is simply a criminal.
BREAKING: CNN’s Daniel Dale fact checks the most outlandish lies in Trump’s speech. There’s so much that Trump yelled that wasn’t true that Dale can barely get through it all. Make sure everyone sees this and gets the facts.
BREAKING: “BEYOND A REASONABLE DOUBT” — Jack Smith calmly destroys Trump’s “witch hunt” fantasy in testimony before Congress.
This morning, Jack Smith walked into the lion’s den of a Republican-controlled House Judiciary Committee meeting, and calmly laid out Trump’s crimes for the world to see.
Behind closed doors on Capitol Hill, former Special Prosecutor Jack Smith did what Republicans desperately hoped he wouldn’t: he methodically, unapologetically, and calmly reminded them why Donald Trump was charged in the first place — and why no amount of political revenge can erase the facts.
In an hours-long deposition before the Committee, the former special counsel made one thing crystal clear: Trump is responsible for Trump actions. Not Joe Biden. Not Democrats. Not the “deep state.” Just Trump.
“The decision to bring charges against President Trump was mine,” Smith told lawmakers, “but the basis for those charges rests entirely with President Trump and his actions.” Translation: if Trump didn’t want indictments, he shouldn’t have committed the crime (allegedly).
Smith didn’t hedge. He didn’t flinch. He said his team uncovered evidence proving “beyond a reasonable doubt” that Trump engaged in a criminal scheme to overturn the 2020 election and block the lawful transfer of power — a stunning reminder of just how close the country came to losing its democracy.
On the classified documents case, Smith said the evidence was “powerful” and that Trump “repeatedly tried to obstruct justice.” Not misplaced papers. Not a misunderstanding. Obstruction.
And for Republicans screaming “witch hunt,” Smith torched that talking point too. He said he would have brought the same charges if Trump were a Democrat or a Republican. Facts and law, not politics, guided the investigation — a concept that seems increasingly foreign to today’s GOP.
Smith also defended his team’s decision to seek phone records from Republican lawmakers, explaining that Trump and his allies were calling members of Congress to further their criminal scheme to delay certification. “I didn’t choose those Members,” Smith said. “President Trump did.”
That line alone should haunt every lawmaker in the room.
Meanwhile, Republicans are openly targeting Smith himself, cheering on an unprecedented retaliation campaign that has included sanctions against his law firm and calls for his prosecution — all because he dared to apply the law to a powerful man.
Smith wanted to testify publicly. Jim Jordan said no. Transparency is dangerous when the truth cuts this deep.
Rep. Jared Moskowitz (D-FL), a member of the House Judiciary Committee, called the deposition “boring,” but that’s because in Jack Smith’s hands the facts don’t scream — they indict.
Jack Smith walked into a hostile room knowing the hunters were circling. And instead of blinking, he calmly reminded them: the evidence speaks for itself.
We can only hope that Donald Trump will someday face justice for the crimes that the former Special Prosecutor so meticulously detailed. Whether that happens while he’s still alive, given his apparently dubious medical conditions, remains to be seen.
