Trump: FBI & DOJ to review the outrageous Jussie Smollett case in Chicago. It is an embarrassment to our Nation! (See Staff Post)

Well allegedly Smollett sent himself a death threat with a powdery substance inside through the mail. That is a federal crime from what I understand. But what Trump is doing is trying to claim credit for the FBI and DOJ getting involved when really he has nothing to do with it.
White America is livid about this guy walking. I'm not happy about it either to be fair but you can tell a lot about how people view race relations by seeing how they react to this guy walking and the strawman arguments built that use him as a jumping off point.
This case must have been covered by State Media.
This is what the president of the most powerful country in the world spends his time on. Frankly, I am not optimistic about the future of the US.

I'm glad the DOJ is protecting us from Jussie Smollett and not protecting minorities from the amount of hate and racism prevalent in police units.
Maybe the EU has it right.../s

Good, hopefully with the power of the FBI and DOJ they can track down the people who attacked Jussie.
God I hate everyone involved in this but honestly ill take a guilty smollett over Trump and the CPD
Folks always find ways to explain things with tellingly racist associations.
I'm guessing this will be another tweet which he doesn't follow up on. Just a knee jerk to rile up his base.
Not sure what they would even do? The best you could do would be some sort of ethics review(lol)?
This is 100% the reason he took an interest in it. He heard/saw the people tying it to the Obama's.
Yeah, but I don't think anything will beat OJ though. They were pissed about that.
I haven't read much about this after the latest twist happened, but it's so funny seeing how all these racist white people just can't process the thought of a black man walking away. It's like it physically hurts them.
Also, of course Trump would know what an embarrassment this is, he's an expert at that topic.

Wow white people really can't handle a black guy getting away with a crime after the cops mishandled their case against said guy.
Ain't none of us happy about this, but Trump literally just got away with a ton of crap (for now) so it's just hilarious that a white guy can get away with way worse but OH NO JUSSIE.

A small case non-violent case that unfortunately might hurt those in Jussie's own community is not the embarrassment that the US has had to live with the last two years.
It's crazy that the people backing Jussie somehow completely have the Nigerian brothers involvement and purchase of the items used in the fake attack in their blindside.
Fix'd for reality.

He's innocent now? I know the charges were dropped, but I thought he still orchestrated the attack against himself.
There hasn't been a real threat to America's dominance my entire life (mid thirties). Like a lot of nations though, our greatest threat lies within.
Not that I'm sad about it or anything. I just find it interesting that we're living to see the end of American dominance if we follow this current trajectory.
Hey Trump, is this the non-"treasonous" FBI doing this one. There are so many FBIs I'm losing track.
I feel like someone in the White House cut together some clips of Green Book to show Trump and he assumed that Smollett was allowed to walk free in the same way it showed Dr. Shirley get out of jail.
Guilt and innocence are legal terms, so technically yes he's innocent.
Even though the orange idiot is taking credit for it, good.
This case is so absurd it needs to be objectively examined. Either
- CPD fucked up
- SA is corrupt as fuck
- He's actually innocent
- Some combination of the above

This is hilarious because trump considers himself innocent because he wasn't taken to court but a black man that got away with charges? Stop the presses! We will divert all our nations resources to correct this wrong!
In public conscious definition 2 can still be used and even definition 1 is shaky. In the courts it is innocent until proven guilty, but he didn't even go to trial.
