Yes. He said Jussie was responsible for that (he just confirmed they got that information from the two brothers). He also said Smollett did all this because he wasn’t satisfied with his salary - which doesn’t make a lot of sense. It seems to me that he did it because he hates Trump, hates Trump supporters, and wanted to put himself in the spotlight and promote his career.
He got an anti-lynching bill passed in the Senate.
I don’t like how they called the brothers “victims”. That’s absurd!!! They need to be held accountable. They took his offer.
Smollett told his tv interviewer he was attacked because “I come really really hard against 45. I come really really hard against his Administration.”
The idea that there wasn’t a political motivation is complete BS.
