Some of the deposition focused on #Republican anger at revelations that the Smith team had obtained, & analyzed, phone records of #GOP lawmakers who were in contact with #Trump on #Jan6. Smith defended the maneuver as lawful & by-the-book, & suggested that outrage over the tactic should be directed at Trump & not his team of prosecutors. [IOW don’t do the crime if you can’t do the time]
