Capitol Hill was rocked moments ago as Special Counsel Jack Smith appeared before the Republican-controlled House Judiciary Committee and methodically tore apart the long-running âwitch huntâ defense â on the record, under oath, and in plain language.
According to coverage airing right now, Smith didnât rant. He didnât posture.
He walked in calm, precise, and devastating.
đš THE MOMENT THAT FROZE THE ROOM
In his opening statement, Smith reportedly told lawmakers that the investigation uncovered evidence meeting the highest criminal standard â not speculation, not politics, but proof that could stand up in any court.
âOur investigation developed proof beyond a reasonable doubt that President T.r.u.m.p engaged in a criminal scheme to overturn the results of the 2020 presidential election and to prevent the lawful transfer of power.â
That line alone sent shockwaves through the hearing room.
âïž NO SPIN. NO HYPERBOLE. JUST FACTS.
Smith laid out a narrative that prosecutors say shows:
A coordinated effort to subvert certified election results
Pressure campaigns on officials to ignore the law
Actions designed to block the peaceful transfer of power
And warnings that the same conduct could happen again if unchecked
Multiple legal analysts watching live noted that Smithâs language sounded less like politics â and more like a closing argument.
đ° TRUMPâS LAWYERS REPORTEDLY SCRAMBLING
As Smith spoke, cameras reportedly caught members of Trumpâs legal team conferring urgently, flipping through notes, and visibly rattled. The strategy that this was all partisan theater appeared to collapse in real time.
đ„ WHY THIS MATTERS
This wasnât a rally.
This wasnât a leak.
This was sworn testimony before Congress â putting allegations, evidence, and intent directly into the official record.
Whether supporters like it or not, todayâs hearing may mark a turning point where the narrative shifts from âDid anything happen?â to âWhat happens next?
