Ola and Abel Osundairo, the two brothers from Nigeria who were arrested and detained by police in connection with the Jussie Smollett "hate crime" incident, are not "racist, homophobic, or pro-Trump," according to TMZ.
We've spoken with "Empire" cast and crew, and they say Ola and Abel Osundairo do not fit the profile of racists and homophobes — not even close. As we reported, both men have been extras on "Empire" for years and both are friendly with Jussie, and Abel is especially close to him. We're told Jussie would frequently approach the brothers on set and chat about health and fitness.
Our Empire sources say Abel especially is an ally of the LGBTQ community, and neither have ever said anything positive about Trump. They're both big Obama fans.
The brothers were caught on a security camera recording somewhere near where Smollett alleges that the attack took place on the night in question. In fact, Smollett told Good Morning America on Thursday, before the brothers were arrested, that he was positive they were the attackers:
Prior to the police identifying and interviewing the two persons of interest, Smollett said he believes the two men in the photo released by police in the days after the attack are the perpetrators.
"I don't have any doubt in my mind that that's them," Smollett said. "Never did."
The plot thickens.
Does this sound like people who would yell "MAGA country!" at a well known gay actor?
We're told Abel worked as an "Empire" extra as recently as a month ago. They're considered family on the set ... well-known and well-liked by cast and crew.

He had to say it was them.
He knew he was screwed at that point.
Dumb cluck.
But the producer is ranting about racism.
He should rant about making one of the WORST shows in TV history.
I watched the first couple of shows figuring maybe it would be a decent depiction of how the animals on the east and west coast slaughtered each other like baby seal in the music business.
Nah, it was just garbage.
Fake Hate Crime Index, like every lowlife subhuman has, before him. You'd think they'd *learn*, but as minority lowlife dirtbags wanting attention for certain reasons, they did it anyway.
More's the pity on this lying leftist scum, who all need prosecution and summary execution. By the millions, IMO.
bttt!
They are seemingly just co-conspirators in yet another leftist hoax to continue the endless information war against supporters of President Trump.
This war is now, folks.

The vicious attack on actor Jussie Smollett was an attempted modern-day lynching. I’m glad he’s safe.
To those in Congress who don’t feel the urgency to pass our Anti-Lynching bill designating lynching as a federal hate crime– I urge you to pay attention.

@JussieSmollett
is one of the kindest, most gentle human beings I know. I’m praying for his quick recovery.
This was an attempted modern day lynching. No one should have to fear for their life because of their sexuality or color of their skin. We must confront this hate

This is a sickening and outrageous attack, and horribly, it’s the latest of too many hate crimes against LGBTQ people and people of color. We are all responsible for condemning this behavior and every person who enables or normalizes it. Praying for Jussie and his family
“racist, homophobic, or pro-Trump,”
Re Smollett: Does that spell out “Small Mullet” or “stinking mullet”? This whole charade stinks like a dead fish.
Smell-It
This is a really weird case that I couldn’t care less about.
Deport them both, and 20 years in the can for racist, race-war inciting and hoaxer Jussie.
16 Feb: CBS Chicago: Jussie Smollett Case: Brothers Questioned By Police Bought Rope Used In Attack At Actor’s Request, Sources Say
By Charlie De Mar
The sources also say the “Empire” actor paid for the rope, which was purchased at the Crafty Beaver Hardware Store the weekend of Jan. 25.
The brothers were paid $3,500 before leaving for Nigeria and were promised an additional $500 upon their return...
The sources say plain red hats worn by the brothers were bought at an Uptown beauty supply store and that the attack was supposed to happen before Jan. 29...

b..b...b...but .... Jussie says he is “The Gay Tupac” — he must be a mega star, he told us so!!
When will they book these turds? Never.
Everyone's having a field day over on Twitter. The schadenfreude meter is off the charts!
My guess is that they have some text messages that will make Jussie Smollett cringe.
More middle-school behavior from a media source.
He’s a “gay” something, but I can’t say here.
The show is pure garbage and I can’t imagine how it’s getting its high ratings.
Probably mostly from stupid white folks who buy the horrific plot line hook, line and sinker.
The black acting/directing/producing community has been DYING for 50 years now to make something, ANYTHING REMOTELY as good as “The Sopranos” or “The Godfather” or “Goodfellas”
But their actors/directors/producers are just as inept/untalented/dumb as their criminals.
The big thing for black “hoods” to do today is to post their crimes or their stolen goods on facebook.
That would have gotten you sawed apart in the old mafia.
