Smollett trial -- closing arguments done. Jury getting instructions. Judge Linn kept the jury as late as 8pm during trial, so a verdict today is not out of realm of possibility.— Matt Finn (@MattFinnFNC) December 8, 2021

BREAKING: Black Lives Matter releases statement supporting Jussie Smollett

“We can never believe police, especially the Chicago Police Department (CPD) over Jussie Smollett, a Black man who has been courageously present, visible, and vocal in the struggle for Black freedom.”

Smollett is not really trying to convince anyone he didn’t stage the attack. He is trying to get the jury to vote for him despite his guilt. It is called jury nullification and this may be the most raw example of the practice in decades... https://t.co/NApaKaj3m7— Jonathan Turley (@JonathanTurley) December 8, 2021

I say he gets acquitted. He has too many cards, the black, gay, leftist cards plus he’s a friend of Michael Obama, plus this is in Chicago plus it helps the Marxist party if they can keep the hoax alive and bring it up every so often as truth.
For example I could absolutely see Michael Obama giving a speech before the midterms “And my good friend Juicy Smollay was assaulted by two racist Trump supporters who tried to lynch him...”

The Marxists have reached a point now where they lie and just don’t give a damn how blatant it is and if you question this, they’ll just say “He was acquitted”

The STRONG play by the “Black Community” would be to disown this worthless, lying, sack-o-shit.

Do I expect it? NO.

Smollett is guilty of dumb-assery in the 3rd degree.

How is it that almost ALL of the left is totally disconnected from reality?

I think it was Orwell that said this:
“Those who can make you believe absurdities can make you commit atrocities.”

Kind of scary that so many on their side are so willing to believe the absurd.

Idiots Like Smollett think their blackness should overcome and cancel out the obvious fact of his guilt. If they have an OJ type jury then it will.

I am surprised his attorney didn’t go with the Twinkies defense.

“Jury Foreman Chappelle, has the jury reached a verdict?”

“We have, Your Honor. This mother####er was clearly lying!””

This needs to be a trial balloon for a national divorce. This is absurd.

Too many of that community are morally bankrupt. Look at the reaction to the OJ verdict.
