It escapes me why people insist on calling the case “complicated” and “ever-evolving” when it’s actually extremely simple - Smollett lied. The only complications that occur happen when people try to make this part of the grand and largely fallacious narrative of Racist America. If this sort of thing threatens their entire worldview - and it does - then maybe that worldview could use some serious reconsideration.

I never understood why the bleach thing wasn’t questioned.

His "white attackers" were so racist, they wanted to bleach Smollett white.

Let me know when Jussie ends up in Prison and is ruined Financially after paying back the costs of the Hoax Investigation.

All I see now is the Case fading away and not being discussed breathlessly by the DNC Media in the same fashion it was when it happened (or should I say didn’t happen).

Hmmm. Collusion? Better get ‘muledeer’ on it when he completes not finding anything against PDJT.

According to this article, the only “truth” the Empire creator admitted was: “The past few weeks have been a freakin’ rollercoaster,”
he admitted, adding that “me and my cast have experienced pain and anger and sadness and really don’t know how to deal with it.”

This is PR. They know the show is going down in flames and anyone remotely connected with it will be considered
persona non grata by the Hollywood PTB. All their once-promising show biz careers are in the toilet.

Smellit was just creating a narrative.
For leftards, a narrative does not have to be factually true. It only has to advance the leftard agenda.

I got that...I was saying that when bleach comes in contact with skin, it is very caustic and causes obvious burns. Why was this not originally questioned?

Since Smollett has been charged with the Hoax has anyone seen any news of him in the grocery store checkout line tabloid racks?

I’ve not seen his name on any of the covers.

Empire creator Lee Daniels needs to check out this site... hundreds and thousands of fake hate crimes designed to trash conservative Americans.
