Should have let him keep his passport, although I guess with felonies it may be a requirement to surrender it. It would be personal suicide and bad PR for the DEMS if he fled the country, something I would have paid to see.

I do agree that money is the root of evil.

THE LOVE of Money, not the money itself.......Love of money is a form of idolatry. Abraham, Isaac and Jacob were wealthy men of their times. David and his son Solomon were wealthy and Solomon was wealthiest king on earth. God will bestow wealth upon whom He wishes as a reward for godliness or for a project to be done. I watch these TV preachers in their regalia and huge mansions begging for money. If they were true men of God, they would not have to ask, it would just come...................................

I doubt he’d get very far. Everybody on the planet knows about him now...................

He referred to President Trump as “45.” I know the Bushes were referred to as 41 and 43 but this seems really odd to me.

He was just keeping with the vibe of the “Peach fo’ fi” mantra of the colossally simpleminded Maxine Waters.

the money motive is a distraction
he would never admit that he was politically motivated and had discussed it with Kamala, Obama, et al

I wonder if Smollett is a suicide risk. This is the sort of nightmare that causes some people to end it all.

how sweet!

Smollett wanted to turn himself in near midnight, but authorities suggested he come in at 5 a.m. instead, to avoid spending the night in jail.

at bottom, the rest of the ABC writers:

ABC News’ Monica Escobedo, Michael Rothman, Andy Fies, Will Gretsky and Stephanie Wash contributed to this report.

YET not a single mention of “Nigerian” or “Ola and Abel Osundairo”. same in news bulletins I’m hearing - you could be excused for thinking the 2 brothers were still white MAGA guys - given the way the story is now being reported.

Smullett with Obama in the White House.

Stories are starting to be published now with information like Jussie's sisters worked for Obama.....

It will probably make more sense now why Jessie wanted to keep his phone records confidential. If Harris, Obama, Booker.... show up there, people will want to know WHY Harris and Smullett were talking coincidentally or was this a planned event. Common sense says that it was a conspiracy and it has the community organizer's fingerprints all over it. I am simply waiting for proof.

Remember, Jessie wrote a check to the two white "Trump" MAGA attackers. He really is dumber than even that shows.

Damage control. They're all on the same team, so the MSM will turn down the volume on this story just as far as they can.

I agree. He’s trying to come up with excuses now but this was the most poorly conncocted politically motivated stunt. I don’t know if he coordinated it with anyone. Maybe that will come out. But if anyone actually worked on this stupidity with him, they need to be put away. Not only for the criminal aspect, but for being too stupid to live around normal folks.
