Senate questioning over Jack Smith’s alleged Hawks game appearance
Several shows discussed Senator Eric Schmidt’s questioning of Jack Smith about whether he attended a Golden State Warriors–Atlanta Hawks game in Atlanta on February 3, 2024.[1][2][3]
On Pod Save America, the exchange was presented as involving text messages that Schmidt said showed Smith attended the game, while Smith recalled a University of Maryland game instead.[4]
The Bulwark Daily said the game attendance would prove nothing and mocked the idea that Smith and Fani Willis were plotting against Trump at a public arena.[5]
Letters from an American and Raging Moderates described Smith as confused or denying the trip, while All the Wrong Moves relayed that he first said he did not remember going to Atlanta.[3][6][1]
Pivot played a clip in which Amy Klobuchar challenged the premise by identifying a different basketball game involving Maryland and Caitlin Clark on that date.[7]
