That's not what he alleged. He said they told him, "this is MAGA country, Ninja!"

Dude would probably be in the middle of a career rehab right now if he would've just copped to making the story up and making his penance. But I guess the same kind of idiot who would make up such a ridiculous story in the first place would be the same kind of guy who would stick to such a story at the cost of his career.

Are there really people in that doc saying there’s credible evidence that exonerates him?

How farking stupid. He should still be in prison.


For the rest of his life too. What if two white guys just happened to be walking that night, were arrested, Jussie frames them, and then they go to jail for twenty years? That was Jussie’s goal that night.

Fortunately Jussie is a complete and total fricking retard and couldn’t predict that anyone with a slightly functional brain would know instantly that was bullshite.

Jussie would have gotten 40 years in the clink if I had my way.

This probably isn’t a documentary. It’s the beginning of his comeback and Netflix is just helping normalize what he did and help cloud up details and put some doubt in people’s minds.

Yeah, this looks to me like Netflix helping Jussie to kick start his career. It will do numbers, of course, and then Mr. Smollett will start to see work again. I doubt he ever cops to the fact that the entire thing was a lie. Too much of a narcissist with a victim mentality to ever take responsibility for it.

"some now say was true all along"



President Barack Obama and former First Lady Michelle Obama signed a multi-year deal with Netflix through their production company, Higher Ground Productions

Jussie Smollett's Connection to Michelle Obama

Involvement of Tina Tchen

Tina Tchen, a former chief of staff for Michelle Obama, was in contact with Cook County State’s Attorney Kim Foxx during the investigation into Jussie Smollett's case.

Tchen described herself as a "family friend" of the Smollett family and reached out to Foxx to express concerns about the investigation's public portrayal.

Communication Timeline

Tchen contacted Foxx on February 1, 2019, shortly after Smollett reported the alleged attack.

She facilitated communication between Foxx and a Smollett family member, which led to Foxx recusing herself from the case due to potential conflicts of interest.

Charges and Legal Proceedings

Smollett was indicted on 16 counts of disorderly conduct for allegedly staging a hate crime against himself.

The charges were dropped in March 2019, leading to public scrutiny and speculation about political influence, including claims regarding Tchen's connections to the Obamas.

I don’t know. The fact that they have the subtitle “The truth about Jessie Smollet?” Ending with a question mark tells me they are going to let him tell his side but it’s probably going to make him look like an idiot along side the facts they reveal.

If you haven't noticed, you can't embarrass someone with the hubris of Smollett. Guy is another leftist that perfectly fits the sociopath label. This guy is pure evil, and like every other lying leftist, will only benefit from this.

If you read the initial reports, Smollett was more than willing to have the police arrest and jail two completely innocent white people for this lie. Even when the cops knew he was lying, part of the questioning to get him to slip again was to show him fake pictures of perps. More than once he told the police to go after "confirmed" IDs of people he never met or knew.

He would have gone through with it. Dude is evil. I'm still shocked Kamala Harris or other leftist pols didn't round up two random white guys and put them under the jail for this farce. Look up his political connections too. With the Obama's owning part of Netflix, none of this is surprising.
