In addition to the Smollett scam to secure a larger salary from the television series producers and, perhaps, keep himself employed as a regular character on the program, it also looks as if politicians were looking to cash in on the publicity to pass legislation. US Senators Booker and Harris look as if they were on the Jussie bandwagon until he was exposed as a fraudster who staged a faked hate crime.
