Hearing Targeting Jack Smith Veers Into Basketball Territory
Original: Hearing Aimed at Jack Smith, Who Charged Trump, Devolves When Questions Turn to Basketball

The New York Times reported that proceedings meant to focus on the prosecutions instead descended into basketball-related exchanges, drawing attention to the unusual direction of the session.
