The law and order president can’t sit idly by while Chicago operates under their own corrupt rules of jurisprudence.
President Trump announced Thursday that the FBI and Justice Department will review the “outrageous” decision to drop charges in the Jussie Smollett case.
The president weighed in as controversy mounted in Chicago and across the country over the abrupt dismissal of the charges that the “Empire” actor faked a hate crime, amid widespread speculation over what happened behind the scenes that led to the deal with Cook County prosecutors.
“FBI & DOJ to review the outrageous Jussie Smollett case in Chicago. It is an embarrassment to our Nation!” Trump tweeted.
Donald J. TrumpFBI & DOJ to review the outrageous Jussie Smollett case in Chicago. It is an embarrassment to our Nation.
The handling of the case has led to even deeper fractures in the Chicago political and law enforcement establishment.
With Mayor Rahm Emanuel fuming over the move to make the case go away, Chicago police came out swinging Wednesday and released the full 61-page investigative report in the alleged hate crime hoax. Chicago police reportedly then became subject of a court order that barred them from releasing further files even though they were widely available online.
The only question is: Which FBI??
I’m far more interested in why everything is kept secret about it than in the dropping of the charges (something I expected to happen but not for a year or so instead of immediately).
Who or what is being protected by the secrecy, and why? Maybe there’s some other reason, but that -protecting something by secrecy- is the only one I’m seeing as probable.
Postal Inspectors would probably get better results … or National Park Service (like in the investigation of Vince Foster’s death)!
The FBI is tainted with the stink of treason.
The DoJ is (most likely) still infested with traitorous maggot lawyers.
No – USPS or NPS or the Keystone Kops if they’re available.
Deputy Dawg still around?
izlamo delenda est …
Not to mention that this was an attempt to start a race war, most likely backed by high level govt. officials, i.e. Kamala Harris, et. al. There’s video of her smirking and sputtering saying she don’t know nothin’ ’bout nothin’ like she hasn’t even seen it on the news. And she’s besties with Kim Fields.
Probably the reason smellet was so smug and sure he’d get away with it if he just kept lying because he knew who had his back and that they could cover for him and make the charges go away.
ZeroHedge has various tweets from people (some officials) in Chicago who are asking questions and speculating on why Foxx recused herself from the case and handed it off to her deputy. Including this:
“None of this is normal—even for Crook County where I was an Assistant State’s Attorney. Educated guess: this hoax implicated someone very important who had pull with the State’s Attorney, and who very badly did not want to be implicated. https://t.co/HyACqBMGoW

Be careful what you wish for, Jesse. You wanted the FBI to handle this case and now they’re handling it.
I can’t wait until Jussy spills the beans on Cum-alah Harris and T-Bone Booker and how they hired him to help promote their anti-lynching bill farce
This is just an epic troll opportunity for Trump and I’m surprised he’s letting it slide.
Chicago prosecutors letting an alleged hate crime go unpunished? Not on my watch!
Foxx keeps saying his forfeited bond and nonexistent community service is normal for the CRIME HE COMMITTED. But then Smollett and his attorneys keep saying that he was still attacked by the roving bands of white youths in MAGA hats envisioned in Andrew Yang’s future America.
The fact that they are not on the same page with their mutual lie suggests there is some intermediary, Mooch’s chief of staff being the prime suspect.
Didn’t I read that he forfeited his bail for dropped charges?
Sounds an awful lot like bribery of some sort of administrator to me…
I wonder whether Smollett was at one time one of Obama’s “boys” and he (or someone in his camp) reached out to Obama/Michelle to bury this or maybe somehow details of Smollett and Obama would be released (remember Kal Penn who quit a successful series to work in the WhiteHouse on some nothing job then left suddenly after being mugged in DC. There has always been rumors about him and Obama) to the press. Then Mooches’s ex secretary has a sudden visit with Foxx. This doesn’t need a review, it needs an investigation.
The bribery was Soros gave Foxx over $400k to her campaign.
There will come a time when I call on you for a favor
Shitcago crooks aren’t getting out of bed for $10k.
Will they interview him in a plane on a tarmac?
