Man, this Jussie Smollet case is getting insane. I called it earlier. Fake MAGA hate crime, fake racial crime, fake homophobe crime.
In case you missed it, earlier today, 2 Nigerian men who previously worked as extras on the same show as Smollet were arrested as suspects in the "beating." In a pretty damning series of events, they were later released after "new evidence" was learned in interrogations. Now, Smollet (the supposed victim) has hired a high profile defense attorney (the same one that represents Michael Cohen).
Now why on Earth would a "victim" hire a defense attorney? Inquiring minds want to know....
This is number 349 of fake hate crimes listed on fakehatecrimes.org (the site is a mess of design and I think you have to register for full content, but you can get the basics...many stories you will remember from the news)
