I cannot believe that the nation’s news media are in the second week of obsessing over this simpering fantasist.

Jussie a lying pussywussy. End of story.

The news conference is online.

Smollett staged attack because he was "dissatisfied with his salary," police say

Police Say Smollett Faked Hate Crime Because He Was Dissatisfied With His Salary
https://www.wsj.com/articles/jussie-...d=hp_lead_pos5
Do you seriously NOT comprehend that the police are telling the media what Smollett gave as the excuse? Do you think the CPD came up with that on their own? What factual evidence could they find to determine that he did this because he was unhappy with his salary? That is a thought. You can't find thought any other way than one way: From the person who thought it - the person who committed the damn crime.

As for the connection with Harris - you really need to keep up. Timelines and photos have been shown. Yeah, those are circumstantial. Have you ever been in a court room? You do know that circumstantial evidence is used all the time, right? What it does, with the history of Smollett family and KH, and many photos of Smollett (multiple times) with other political "celebrities", and the timeline, is make a possible connection.

You know, like we did at the very beginning of this thread when we said, "Nope, this is bs", and others came back with the same garbage that you're coming here with now? Yeah, just like that.

If you're going to "wait for the facts", as you said, then you can't close the door on this possibility.

Trump had to say something. Of course he's going to presume innocence until guilt.

Maybe he was hoping for some dopes to create a gofundme page. A friend had to post bond for him today. He didn't have access to $10K given his salary?

I dont understand why an attacker would apply a noose around a victims neck for decoration. He had no rope burns or no significant injuries thing thats why I thought the story was BS. If two people beat me up I'm sure I would be bruised bleeding and hardly able to walk!

Do you get that the guys that Jussie hired may have been told that reasoning by Jussie before he hired them? The guys may have told the cops what Jussie told them. The police coming out with a statement is MORE basis than your circumstantial conclusion about Harris. No law enforcement has even pinpointed that theory only right-wing conspiracy theorist. That's the real garbage.

Trump made a measured comment in response to a request. To conflate the two is foolish.

I am not spinning anything.

What makes sense: Politician running for president trying to push through an anti lynching bill who is known for playing dirty (during the Kavanaugh hearings) and has been seen recently WITH the guy who perpetrated LYNCHING hoax.

What makes NO sense: Well paid actor who hates the President wanted to get his salary increased.

Trump handled it very well. I cringe to think what Obama would have said.

I don't know what is more tragic, Jussie Smollett or city-data posters who defend him. lol

At least Jessie probably had a purpose, he wanted to be famous and he was an opportunist. Why do the citydata folks defend him? lol Oh brother! This thread is too funny!

I posted it earlier. 18 episodes. Yet he couldn't come up with $10K bail bond.

Someone may have been looking for gofundme help.
