Although one positive is that it's probably going to destroy the prosecutors career. Do they just hand out law degrees now? I should know better, she's just some Chicago political machine hack.

Do not discount that the prosecutor may have been directed from above.

Yes, there is no question... Although the prosecutor is a hack, there was an influential big name liberal puppeteer at play.

I would suspect some big wig connection to someone Jusse could "out."

I like the first name usage. Might as well call him Mr. Smollett by using the last name. For fucks sake, the dudes name is Jusse (or Jussie - who the fuck cares). That's not even a real name.

I'm going to name my firstborn Sandquad, and he'll be a gay white guy that has 2 Asians dump black paint (toxic mind you) on his left arm and nail him to a cross in Detroit and drag his ass over the border to have sex with Rin's hoes while bleeding out.

Muh! I don't get paid enough eating buffets and actually working for 7 hours a week, and not doing it well. I know my first thought would be fake lynching or race crime hoax, right?

As you can tell I think the dude is a POS.

Everything I see on Smollett is from Fox

So I never even heard of him except by seeing his name here.

Which is why you should wake up and add some new news sources, unless of course, you enjoy your fake lib reality.

Smollett straight up lied, and is friends with Kamala Harris and the Obamas. His stunt just "coincidentally happened" to occur at the perfect timing to help Kamala get her anti-lynching bill passed in congress, timing the outrage to pressure congress to vote in favor of it.

Kamala is a race baiting Houdini. But, it seems you're glad that you don't know that stuff because you would rather live in lib lala land.

So rely only on Fox and Trump for truth.

Wow

I’m in lala land, of course, not a cult member.

I’m not worried that you’ll get your girly feewings hurt by something the bad man on Fox said. You’ve shown an absolute imperviousness to truth in all forms. I firmly believe that your brain has become a calcified relic that can’t accept any more information and can only regurgitate Leftist talking points. Welcome to ignore.

jazz_music says

I might do more research on it, but damn, why is it all the hits are Fox?

Very simple - Fox will report a selection of new which will be liked by their viewers. On the other hand, MSNPC viewers will feel uncomfortable about Smollett case, so it will not be reported in their selection of feel-good news.

jazz_music says

So rely only on Fox and Trump for truth.

Where did I say that? Where have I ever said to use fox or trump for news / info? Where have I ever said to rely on them?

I specifically told you I think fox lies a lot, and told you to add variety to your news. I said to add "conservative" news for variety to balance your "liberal" sources.

You are delusional. This is what happens when you go too far to one side - you start seeing the other side as the enemy, and your mind starts inferring things that aren't there.

jazz_music says

I might do more research on it, but damn, why is it all the hits are Fox?

It will take you 30 seconds to scan google / bing to find non-fox hits for smollet. It's ALL OVER the media.

What you should be asking yourself is - why do certain left wing media outlets seem to offer little coverage of this story? Why do they try to paint the story more rosy, downplaying it's significance, only reporting certain details? Because they are biased! Just like certain right wing sources are.

If you only view 1 political news side, you'll live in a false reality. If you would do yourself the favor of adding news variety, and objectively comparing what you see, you would do yourself a whole lot of good.

Seriously dude....wake up. It's not just smollett.

You can still be a liberal while adding variety and objectivity to your news, and you should. It's easy to discern the facts and the opinion from stories once you practice a bit. Try comparing the same topic on left vs right news for a few months. I guarantee you will see trends that will make you angry at both sides.

BayArea says

All he needed to do is come out and apologize, admit wrongdoing,

Ha! If he did that he would have been roasted over a quick fire, instead of a slow one. We all would have forgotten about him by now.

I do watch them for a laugh sometimes.

It'll be a long wait for them to ask Melania if she's going to divorce Donald over his infidelities.

So you’re admitting you’re eating out of the toilet sometimes. 🤭🤭🤭

jazz_music says

Fox is so juvenile with their shows

What shows? I've seen many liberal viewpoints and liberals all the time on Fox News shows including Tucker Carlson, Laura Ingraham... On the news I thought I would get a break from the global warming propaganda, but no, it's there too. I heard them report on the CA wild fires and they said it was caused by climate change.

Then how many months later we find out some downed power lines were to blame and PG&E is taking responsibility.

It's all bullshit. Fox, Kos, CNN, MSNBC. Even Brietbart I read religiously is full of BS on some stories, like 911.

Take your pick. They all leave out facts and even lie to cover up something to support their POV. Once you know their POV, ie Breitbart: immigration invasion, taking our jobs, ruining the middle class... (All of which is true, but they would have you believe all immigrants are bad people, well almost, certainly alot of bad people among them) Daily Kos: Get Hillary elected (saw how that worked out) and expand open borders to flood conservative districts with illegal immigrants, give them the right to vote and start winning elections for Democrats, Yea that's why they are helping them across the border. Learn to read between the lines, then you will discern the truth, but it isn't on the right or the left or the middle. It's knowing where they are coming from, then when you know their agenda, you know what not to trust.

Daily Kos agenda will ruin America. Breitbart wants to save the country from ruin. The Democrats don't care if they ruin the country for the middle class, so long as they stay in power. Implementing their socialist agenda will further erode the middle class, their ability to earn a living wage. Look at all the millenials living in a cubbyhole and paying exorbinant rents. That is the result of years of a globalist agenda from both parties over the last 30 or so years: NAFTA. TPP, high corporate tax rates drove big companies out of the U.S. Do you think that was good for the middle class and keeping jobs in America?

Yeah, news stations are more biased than your redneck cousin. Know where your info is coming from and you have a chance.

Think stupid shit like "reality has a left-wing bias" and you're lost. Guaranteed.

E-man says

This is how the left is lying to you by leaving the Smollett story out of the narrative. Of course they want the story to go away. It doesn't support the narrative the U.S. is a racist country, with systemic racism in the patriarchal hierarchy.

If you believe that bullshit, cut off your balls now and get high voice, because you're a woman.

You know why? Because this hoax blew up into the faces of it's makers. If it didn't blew up into the faces of it's makers, then you've heard a lot more about it. Because it would be running on CNN 24/7

You really, really, REALLY should be asking how come CNN is so quiet about this reasonably high profile case, and who gains from pushing the racial divide narrative.

So typical of libtards....they have no skills and can't even do a basic google search....

Now the pink panther will probably say "ABC was infiltrated by fox saboteurs and forced to print these lies!"

A poor, sad libtard battling with cognitive dissonance and denial. No offence to sensible liberals intended.

jazz_music says

Fox has the worst reputation for making shit up, so this story is lloking like that

I don’t watch Fox. I know plenty of CPD officers that know detectives working on this. A massive amount of resources were wasted on something they took as real and serious. You think this is a fucking joke? Grow the fuck up.

Jussie should be in jail and likely will be at some point.

WookieMan says

Jussie should be in jail and likely will be at some point.

The day before Hillary.

Speaking of liberal guys not being handy, Jussie was so metrosexual he tied the noose like a half-windsor necktie.

There's literal video of him removing it.

The evidence that Jussie faked a hate crime is so massive it guarantees a conviction.

A Chicago judge appointed a special prosecutor on Friday morning to lead the investigation into the handling of the Jussie Smollett case.


Cook County Judge Michael Toomin appointed former U.S. Attorney Dan Webb to the position to investigate the way the case was handled — specifically, why the 16 criminal charges against Smollett were dropped and to potentially reinstate the charges or even add additional charges against Smollett.


"Webb gained prominence for his lead role during the Operation Greylord investigations into judicial corruption in Cook County," Fox 32 reported. "He served as special counsel in the Iran-Contra affair and was previously appointed by Judge Toomin in the death of David Koschman."

Webb told reporters on Friday: "I don't know where this case is going. The facts will take me where they take me."

Toomin ruled that a special prosecutor was needed in the case because "Cook County State's Attorney Kim Foxx had no authority to hand [the case] off to her top deputy after announcing she recused herself," CBS News Chicago reported.

Nice. Maybe there is still some justice in our legal system.

Nice. Maybe there is still some justice in our legal system.

I sure hope so.

This could be sweet justice.

Weren't Kamala and Jussie seen together at some kinda activist group meeting, in a picture, a few days before the noose incident? And, the date of the noose incident lined up perfectly to help her get her anti-lynching bill voted for in congress?

Sounds like Kamala colluded w/ Jussie. She likely said something like "Hey Jussie, dear sweet nephew. I got this anti-lynching bill I'm trying to get passed in congress in a few weeks. A sure slam dunk way to get it passed is if a black american were to get lynched, and MSM were to report on it, showing America that we still need this anti-lynching bill."

Oddly, Jussie gets "lynched" - noose and all - just days later. But, she didn't have anything to do with it, right? lol.

This investigation could unfold as Cumala gains in political popularity and dem party support. It could totally savage the dems right before the election, making them look bad for not vetting their crooked candidate, or even worse.... there may have been some Obama or other "we go high when they go low" influence in getting Jussie his sweetheart no-jail deal.
