Smollet Charges Dropped!

[indykid]

Wouldn't it be a hoot if Smollett now sued the city of Chicago for false arrest?

Yes, because everything would come out in court.

He’ll be on stage at Dems National Convention in Wisconsin crying “oh is me” the Republicans did this to me and it all the Republicans and Trumps fault.
He is now the newest poster boy for the Dems and the O-bamma’s

I dont know about that. Seems quite a few Dems are pretty pissed about this too, at least asking questions about how/why these charges are dismissed. Even the liberal news, from what im hearing, are questioning this decision

Simply investigate the prosecution and all those involved and charge them with obstruction of justice.

The strangest part of this story is that I would never believed that in a thousand years I would agree with Rahm Emmanuel about anything.

I can sum this up with one word-FUBAR.

Sadly, I think SNAFU may be more appropriate.

Jussie would prefer BOHICA

Do a search for Rahm right after he was elected, in about the first year, maybe two. He TRULY tried to reform some things and got stomped by the machine - hard!

He learned to back off and not to challenge the machine but he did try, with the schools and maybe(?) Chicago police dept.

I think you'd find several things to agree with him on, early on.

Maybe BOHICA was the "Community Service" they claimed that Jussie had done.

 

[Hawkeye7br]

So if Lori Laughlin "donates" $10,000 to California, will they drop all charges against her? Wait, that's how she got arrested....

 

[ghitch75]

i know people that got a lot worse for a first time DUI......not even a felony.....

Trump has ordered an FBI and DOJ investigation. This is not going away very quietly if that is what someone intended.

he is a very effective logistics commander but not good as a front line commander. meaning when he was helping obama he was #1 in his game. he is cunning and ruthless and can get things done behind the scenese, but he needed obamas charisma to push it thru and for obama to be the face of it.

now that he is "the face" so to speak he lost his power.
i am glad he took the chicago job
it got him out of national stuff and dimished his power.

[FONT=&amp] The venerable political machine that runs the most corrupt big city in America, the very city who gave us the presidency of Barack Obama, is erupting in a political civil war over a case that has riveted the attention of the public. What makes this story a beacon of hope for reform-minded populists is that the fate of the rascals is now in the hands of an incompetent public official who has outraged the public with obvious corruption of justice, and who is now panicking and making huge mistakes because the walls are starting to close in on her.

Chicago now wants $130,000 from Jussie Smollett for the cost of the investigation!

From the recent articles I have seen and read I don't think this is going to go quietly. The Cook County States Attorney Kim Foxx didn't appreciate how big this story was or the repercussions of just letting him go scott free.

I need to search and see how the gay community is reacting to this story.

I have gotten my butt roasted for putting this out there. Also reverse racism.
It does exist. It is far more prevalent since "O" had the big boy chair.
Call me what you will, just saying what so many are thinking already.

But I digress.
