Photograph: Evan Vucci/Reuters GOP senators lash out on Smith, who led criminal cases against Trump, with invective and inaccurate information Former special counsel Jack Smith, who led two criminal cases against Donald Trump in 2023, faced attacks from Republicans in a wide-ranging hearing on Tuesday that included a basketball mix-up, a reference to the tooth fairy and accusations of perjury.
在周二的参议院司法委员会听证会上,来自密苏里州的共和党参议员埃里克·施密特对史密斯提出伪证指控,这似乎源于对亚特兰大老鹰队和爱荷华大学鹰眼队篮球队的混淆。
In the Senate judiciary committee hearing on Tuesday the Republican senator Eric Schmitt, of Missouri, raised perjury allegations against Smith, seemingly over a mix-up about the Atlanta Hawks and University of Iowa Hawkeyes basketball teams.
施密特称史密斯为“卑鄙小人”,声称这位检察官于2024年2月3日前往亚特兰大观看老鹰队比赛,并暗示史密斯可能会见了富尔顿县前地方检察官法尼·威利斯,后者曾对特朗普提起州级指控。
Schmitt, who called Smith a “dirtbag”, claimed the prosecutor went to Atlanta to attend a Hawks game on 3 February 2024, and insinuated Smith may have met with Fani Willis, the former Fulton county district attorney who brought state charges against Trump.
但史密斯否认曾参加过亚特兰大老鹰队的比赛。他随后澄清称,他在马里兰州观看了一场爱荷华大学鹰眼队的比赛,为凯特琳·克拉克加油。
But Smith denied ever attending an Atlanta Hawks game. He later clarified that he attended a University of Iowa Hawkeyes game in Maryland to watch Caitlin Clark play.
来自明尼苏达州的民主党参议员艾米·克罗布彻训斥施密特将该说法作为证据提出,并指责施密特撒谎。
The Democratic senator Amy Klobuchar, of Minnesota, admonished Schmitt for presenting the claim as evidence and accusing Schmitt of lying.
“我只想说,一名美国参议员掌握虚假信息,并基于对球队名称的混淆……暗示你在另一个城市,暗示你那天以某种方式卷入了佐治亚州发生的事情,还称你为‘卑鄙小人’,这件事值得道歉,”克罗布彻说。《卫报》已向施密特办公室寻求置评。
“I would just say, for a US senator to have false information, and imply, based on a confusion about the name of a team … that you were in another city, that you were somehow involved, that day, in what was happening in Georgia, and then call you a ‘dirtbag’, is something that deserves an apology,” Klobuchar said. The Guardian has asked Schmitt’s office for comment.
施密特与史密斯之间这场不同寻常的交锋成为社交媒体上该听证会的焦点之一。
The unusual exchange between Schmitt and Smith became a highlight of the hearing on social media.
史密斯还曾向参议院司法委员会作证,为他处理针对特朗普的两项联邦调查进行辩护——一项涉及推翻2020年大选结果的努力,另一项涉及特朗普对机密文件的处理不当。这两起案件均在开庭审理前被驳回。
Smith also testified to the Senate judiciary committee to defend his handling of two federal investigations into Trump – one related to efforts to overturn the 2020 election and the other regarding Trump’s mishandling of classified documents. Both cases were dismissed before going to trial.
共和党人指责史密斯发起调查旨在打击特朗普,并在过程中针对他们——包括传唤国会议员的电话记录。
Republicans have accused Smith of bringing the investigations to undermine Trump and targeting in the process – including by subpoenaing phone records from members of Congress.
史密斯为自己的做法进行了辩护,称传票对于收集证据是必要的,以证明特朗普曾致电国会议员,试图延迟2020年总统大选结果的认证。
Smith has defended his practices, saying the subpoenas were necessary to collect evidence that Trump called members of Congress to try to delay the certification of the 2020 presidential election.
但周二的听证会也因共和党参议员与史密斯之间的其他激烈交锋而引人注目。
But Tuesday’s hearing was also defined by other tense exchanges between Republican senators and Smith.
来自路易斯安那州的共和党参议员约翰·肯尼迪在提出指控后显得很沮丧,他指控前总统拜登或其白宫工作人员曾指示时任司法部长梅里克·加兰起诉特朗普——这一指控没有公开证据支持。史密斯表示,他不知道拜登和加兰之间关于此事的对话。“你相信牙仙吗?”肯尼迪问史密斯。“那复活节兔子呢?”这个问题引出了史密斯的回答:“我不再相信复活节兔子了。”
The Republican John Kennedy, of Louisiana, appeared frustrated after raising accusations that former president Joe Biden or his White House staff told the then attorney general Merrick Garland to prosecute Trump – an allegation with no public evidence. Smith said he did not know about conversations between Biden and Garland regarding the subject. “Do you believe in the Tooth Fairy?”Kennedy asked Smith. “How about the Easter Bunny?”The question elicited a response from Smith: “I no longer believe in the Easter Bunny.”
跳过时事通讯推广 在某一时刻,肯尼迪对史密斯说:“你让我想吐。”

来自德克萨斯州的共和党参议员泰德·克鲁兹在谈到史密斯传唤国会议员电话记录时愈发愤怒,他对史密斯说:“《悲惨世界》里的沙威看到你都会惊讶不已。”克鲁兹暗示史密斯利用特别检察官的职权针对共和党人,通过要求获取共和党全国委员会和其他保守派议员的记录。
Ted Cruz, a Republican senator from Texas who became increasingly angry while talking about Smith subpoenaing congressional members’ phone records, told Smith: “Javert from Les Mis would look at you with astonishment.”Cruz insinuated that Smith used his position as a special counsel to target Republicans by requesting records from the Republican National Committee and other conservative lawmakers.
来自南卡罗来纳州的参议员达琳·格雷厄姆在听证会上利用自己的发言时间,指责史密斯“试图欺凌”她的兄弟、已故参议员林赛·格雷厄姆,并因传票给他造成了压力。但史密斯反驳了达琳·格雷厄姆的说法。
Darline Graham, the senator from South Carolina, used her time during the hearing to accuse Smith of “trying to bully” her brother, the late senator Lindsey Graham, and causing him stress with subpoenas. But Smith pushed back on Darline Graham’s assertion.
“我相信您的兄弟是一位爱国的公职人员。他不是我们调查的目标,事实上,他很可能会成为我们案件中的证人,”史密斯回应道,并补充说林赛·格雷厄姆并不认为2020年的大选被窃取。
“I believe your brother was a patriotic public servant. He was not a target of our investigation, and in fact he likely would have been a witness in our case,” Smith replied, adding that Lindsey Graham did not believe the 2020 election was stolen.
与此同时,民主党人则利用周二的听证会,重点关注了2021年1月6日美国国会大厦遭袭事件,并指责特朗普在2020年总统大选期间以关于选举欺诈的虚假言论煽动了暴力暴徒。
Democrats, meanwhile, used Tuesday’s hearing to highlight the 6 January 2021 attack on the US Capitol and accused Trump of inciting the violent mob with false claims of election fraud during the 2020 presidential election.
来自新泽西州的参议员科里·布克宣称这场听证会是“一场闹剧”。
Cory Booker, the senator from New Jersey, declared the hearing “a farce”.
布克和来自特拉华州的克里斯·孔斯强调,现政府解雇了曾在史密斯团队工作的司法部员工。
Booker and Delaware’s Chris Coons highlighted that the current administration had fired justice department staffers who worked on Smith’s team.
尽管各方对史密斯的任命和起诉存在党派分歧,但史密斯表示,他在对特朗普的调查中始终保持无党派立场,并且他的团队已经收集了足够的证据来起诉这位总统。
Despite the partisan divide over Smith’s appointment and prosecutions, Smith said he maintained a nonpartisan approach to the investigations into Trump and that his team had compiled enough evidence to prosecute the president.
史密斯在开场陈述中说:“如果今天被问及是否要基于同样的事实起诉一位前总统,无论这位总统是共和党人还是民主党人,我都会这样做。”
“If asked whether to prosecute a former president today, based on the same facts, I would do so regardless of whether that president was a Republican or a Democrat,” Smith said in his opening statement.
