Rapper Cardi B posted a profanity-filled Instagram live video expressing disappointment in Smollett, while leaving open the possibility that the actor is being set up by “racist” police officers.

“I’m not gonna say, yet, until he says out his mouth that it was fake and the s--- was staged. I don’t want to completely blame him because… somebody that I was talking to, they said police in Chicago are racist and so they might probably be trying to frame him and make him look like he’s a liar,” Cardi B said in the video. “But if he’s not, then bro, you f----d up.”

Much like Cardi B, actress Ava DuVernay is skeptical of law enforcement in Chicago.

“Despite the inconsistencies, I can’t blindly believe Chicago PD,” DuVernay tweeted. “The department that covered up shooting Laquan McDonald over a dozen times? That operated an off-site torture facility? That one? I’ll wait. Whatever the outcome, this won’t stop me from believing others. It can’t.”

“He might have lied. He might [...] not have. I don’t know. But what I do know? I never believe police on general principle just ‘cause they say so. My experience, our history, makes it impossible for me to do so,” she wrote.

Celebrity Jussie Smollett supporters grapple with hoax reports | Fox News

Pathetic. This is Black History Month and Jussie Smollett has set back the black and gay community back. But you have these people still defending Jussie and claiming the Chicago PD set him up?

These people need to wake up. This is not a conspiracy. Jussie fooled his supporters and friends and should pay the price.

Yes, when random "liberals" say something, they speak fro all liberals. When a conservative speaks, they only speak for themselves. That's the way it works here.
 
Cardi B's opinion? Cardi B? That is seriously who you are talking about?

That's what fake Fox calls "news."
 
This is just another Ryan Lochte type story. Some people will do anything for attention. It has nothing to do with liberals in general.

Trump supporters desperately try to tie anything negative to liberals. Yet Trump makes stuff up all the time and they are fine with it.

Jussie and Trump are both a couple of lying narcissists.

I am starting to feel sorry for Mr. Smollett.


1. Being a male of his sexuality is a tough row to hoe in this world.
2. Being a male of his ethnicity is also a tough row to hoe in this country.
3. Being told that he ruined African American History Week must be painful.
4. Being told that "Empire" may delete his scenes from upcoming episodes must hurt the most.

I do NOT want him to be sent to jail/prison.

a. You can imagine what would happen to him there.
b. He would emerge a broken man. What's the point of that?


I hope the judge will do the following:

a) Sentence him to probation for a long period.
b) Require him to pay restitution to the Chicago Police Department.
c) Require him to publicly apologize.
d) Give him meaningful community service.

He should be sentenced to the maximum. He is still telling the lie and still consuming police resources. He is as contemptible as a person can be. BREAK HIM. So that everyone sees it. These national attention hoax crimes MUST stop. HE wanted to be headline news. USE THAT to make it clear these hoaxes for personal gain will completely ruin your life.
 
Democrats as high as Nancy Pelosi raced to declare what he claimed is true - and further to demand it is the basis for federal legislation. Democratic politicians and MSM talking heads rushed to try to politically profit from this.

Now that it is known to be a hoax, many Democrats are ranting that FOX and the rightwing is who made all the noise. In fact, the raging by those Democrats is fury that it is being pointed out that once again - the next of dozens of times - they've been punked.

We saw a whole gaggle of leftist geese wildly slandering conservatives and Trump supporters for the two MAGA hat wearing racist white guys who attacked Smollet and tried to lynch him. What kind of stupid nonsense is that? Slander the whole white human race because two white guys attacked a black guy needing some publicity? Leftist weenies who jumped on that bandwagon showed themselves to be the fools they really are.

Jussie said in his interview with ABC that he goes hard against #45. That was a lie as well!

Cory Booker called it an attempted lynching.

The irony?

Those that spoke right after that incident based on emotion are now demanding patience and waiting for more evidence.

Just shows you people will believe news no matter how far-fetched the story is if it confirms their confirmation bias. No wonder so many people believe big foot is real.

Yup. Using Bucky's "logic", I should probably ask why the American flag hasn't been replaced by the swastika yet.
 
I admit that I was 100% wrong about this whole story and I indeed jumped the gun.

Those who believed him owe no one an apology. He cried wolf. Coming to his rescue was the right thing to do. He owes the wolf an apology, not you.

There was NO WOLF. Der....

That's what crying wolf means. He owes the 'wolves' an apology for falsely accusing them. Get it now?

so did the boy who cried wolf apologize to the none wolf, or did he apologize to the town folks? Your logic and understanding of the analogy is woefully pathetic.. ;)
