Jussie Smollett: Trump says FBI and justice department will review case

Donald Trump has weighed into the debate over Chicago prosecutors’ surprise decision to drop charges against the Empire actor Jussie Smollett, saying the FBI and Department of Justice will review the case.

The president tweeted on Thursday that the FBI and Department of Justice will review the “outrageous” case, calling it an “embarrassment” to the country.

Smollett’s attorney said the two brothers who claim they worked with the actor to stage the January attack are lying. They acknowledge that Smollett, who is black and gay, had hired one brother as a personal trainer, but insist Smollett had no idea who attacked him along a Chicago street in late January until the brothers were later identified by police.

@FAH1223 @tru_m.a.c can one of you edit the title to say "trump says Justice Department will investigate Smollett case"?

 

[DonKnock]

Since the Kaep stuff it has been patently obvious that Trump is trying to go at Black public figures to incite his base. This is just another offshoot of that


Although Smollett not really the one that needs to be a real point of emphasis for Dems considering he dug his own grave here Save the political capital for better cases.

this smollett thing is a huge story for white racists. theyre using it to question the reality of hate crimes and paint themselves as the victims. i got a cousin who lives in pittsburgh and at work she says nobody has broght up new zealand, antwon rose (the black teenager shot and killed by a cop IN PITTSBURGH) yet theyve discussed this smollett case in detail

i agree he shouldnt be a rallying point for the dems at all. just that people get off on techinicalities all the time and thats a legitimate reason for somebody to walk. this doesnt need any kind of federal investigation. plus we already know if it was the same situation where a white guy said he got beat up by black men for being a trump supporter, faked it and got off trump wouldnt utter a word on it.
