New information coming from Chicago police sources suggests that ‘Empire’ actor Jussie Smollett orchestrated the attack he claimed was carried out by two men who yelled: “This is MAGA country!”.
The CPD has asked to interview Smollett again after they arrested and then released two Nigerian brothers. Sources say that the brothers flipped on Smollett when they were threatened with being charged with battery. As it turns out, Chicago police discovered that the brothers bought the rope used to make a noose that was placed on Smollett’s neck at some point on the night of the supposed attack. They told police officers that they purchased the rope at Ace Hardware in Chicago.
Chicago (CBS) — Two brothers who were questioned and released by Chicago police investigating the Jussie Smollett attack did play a role in the crime.
Sources say at least one of the brothers bought the rope used in the incident at Smollett’s request. The sources also say the “Empire” actor paid for the rope, which was purchased at the Crafty Beaver Hardware Store the weekend of Jan. 25.
The brothers were paid $3,500 before leaving for Nigeria and were promised an additional $500 upon their return.
They left for Nigeria later in the day on Jan. 29 after the attack.
The sources say plain red hats worn by the brothers were bought at an Uptown beauty supply store and that the attack was supposed to happen before Jan. 29.
Smollett claims two men attacked him in Streeterville early Jan. 29 as he was heading to his apartment. He said they yelled racial and homophobic slurs at him, poured a chemical on him and put a rope around his neck.
WATCH:
As with any police investigation of a crime, it’s always best to allow the detectives to do their job and then report or remark on the findings of their investigation. Of course, all of those rules go out the window when there’s a possibility the crime could be tied to President Trump or to his supporters. If there’s a chance the crime has a hint of being tied to either President Trump or his signature MAGA hat, all bets are off—especially for Democrat presidential hopefuls, who want you to believe they are thinking individuals with the ability to make rational judgment calls when necessary.
On Jan 29, 2019, almost every single 2020 presidential candidate came forward on Twitter to bravely condemn the racist, homophobic, lynching, hate crime committed against the Empire actor Jussie Smollett (that we all now know was a hoax).
Joe Biden, without any knowledge of whether or not what Smollett was saying was true, tweeted, ” What happened today to @JussieSmollett must never be tolerated in this country. We must stand up and demand that we no longer give this hate safe harbor;”
Who the hell was giving hate “safe harbor,” Joe???
Biden continued: that homophobia and racism have no place on our streets or in our hearts. We are with you, Jussie.”
Are you with him now, Joe? Now that he’s wasted multiple hours of the Chicago Police Department’s much-needed officers and created a hateful narrative that pitted Americans against each other over a LIE—what do you have to say now, Joe?
“Spartacus” Booker, another 2020 presidential hopeful, who has problems himself with being caught lying about imaginary friends, as a way to evoke sympathy and emotion from others, tweeted: The vicious attack on actor Jussie Smollett was an attempted modern-day lynching. I’m glad he’s safe.
Was Smollett actually “lynched?” Did we miss something in the reporting?
Booker continued: “To those in Congress who don’t feel the urgency to pass our Anti-Lynching bill designating lynching as a federal hate crime- I urge you to pay attention.
It’s ironic that a black Democrat is using a faked attempted lynching by another black Democrat to call on lawmakers to make lynching a federal crime. It’s also curious that Booker’s behaving as though lynchings are happening with alarming frequency in America. It’s almost as though he’s referring to the days when the Democrat-founded KKK members were actually committing lynchings.
Democrat presidential hopeful, Kamala Harris remarked about what a kind and gentle human being Jussie Smollett is, and how she’s praying for his quick recovery. Kamala continued, without any evidence to back up her hysterical claim, ” This was an attempted modern day lynching. No one should have to fear for their life because of their sexuality or color of their skin. We must confront this hate.
Okay, Kamala…those are some pretty strong words. Now that you know it was all a hoax, are you planning to confront “one of the kindest and most gentle human beings” you know and ask him why he lied about the white Trump supporters, who screamed, “This is MAGA country!”?
And then the angry Socialist chimed in. Socialist-Democrat Independent 2020 presidential candidate Bernie Sanders tweeted as though the Smollett investigation was already complete, saying, “The racist and homophobic attack on Jussie Smollett is a horrific instance of the surging hostility toward minorities around the country.”
“Surging hostilities toward minorities in this country”??? Do you have any facts to back up your claim, you old curmudgeon?
Democrat Speaker of the House, Nancy Pelosi, the woman who is third in line for the presidency has no time to wait for the results of a silly criminal investigation, Pelosi went all out in her call to end “this hate once and for all” following her accusation of a “racist and homophobic attack on @JussieSmollett”

Of course, a few of the Democrat freshmen sensations, the queen of hate, Rashida Tlaib and the dumbest woman in Congress, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez felt the need to weigh in on the Smollett investigation, by condemning the attackers before the results of the crime were even released.
The angry Palestinian-American Congresswoman Rashida Tlaib (D-MI) tweeted: “When one of the most famous black and gay men in America is not safe the message is clearer than it ever has been.”The dangerous lies spewing from the right wing is killing and hurting our people.”
So…now that we all know the lie was from “one of the most famous black and gay men in America” who is also a vocal critic of President Trump, just like you, Rashida Tlaib, what do you have to say for yourself now?
America will wait for your apology.
From the “New Green Deal” and 25,000 jobs killing freshman Congresswoman, Socialist-Democrat Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez:
There is no such thing as “racially charged.” This attack was not “possibly” homophobic. It was a racist and homophobic attack. If you don’t like what’s happening in this country, then work to change it. It is no one’s job to water-down or sugar coat the rise in hate crimes.
Tell us Alexandria…could you please tell us exactly who is responsible for the “racist and homophobic attack” you were so sure happened to Smollett?
We’ll also wait for your apology.
Andy Ngo does a great job of listing all of the ridiculous and hate-filled tweets against conservatives, President Trump and his supporters. Ngo also retweets a very telling tweet from the unhinged actor Jussie Smollett to President Trump:
Shut the hell up you bitch ass nigga. You will continue to run this country further into the ground and risk lives every time you breathe. You’re not the president. Just a dumpster full of hate. FOH. Sick to my stomach that literal shit currently represents America to the world. https://t.co/qoNWllmZIm

Here are just a few more tweets from Hollywood:
The first is from an actor in Disney’s new Lion King movie who says he wants “Trump and all MAGA hat lunatics to burn in hell”
The other tweets are from actors and comedians, all sending their hate for President Trump and his supporters.
And finally, “Think Progress” who likes to think of themselves as important journalism, admonishes the White House and top Republicans for their silence over the MAGA hat attackers. And then there’s the Mercury News, who mocked Donald Trump Jr. for “believing the Empire star’s attack was a hoax”
Bay-area reporter @marthajross actually wrote this news article for @mercnews saying that it was a “conspiracy theory” to doubt Smollett’s sensational claims.
Reporters’ bias against Trump voters is so severe that they take cartoony, outrageous claims at face value. pic.twitter.com/ouYtHzHjpX

What do you think? Should every one of these Democrats and Hollywood activists be publishing formal apologies for their vile accusations and rush to judgment before finding out the facts of the investigation?
We’d love to know what you think in the comment section below.
