President Trump announces FBI, Justice Dept. probe of Jussie Smollett case | |
Off Switch
 User ID: 77493459  United States03/28/2019 01:20 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Trump is only going after Smollett because he's gay and black. Quoting: Billy Ringo More proof that Trump is a racist homophobe. If Smollett was a straight white male he wouldn't have interceded.   Sarcasm my friend, sarcasm. The libs will use this against Trump to claim he's a racist and a homophobe.....its what they do. I've asked a few friends why they hate Trump, typically they'll state, "because he's a Nazi, a womanizer and hates gays", and I'll calmly ask--"can you give me a few examples". Silence, followed by..."just because he is." They have no proof because there isn't any. Oh, copy that, my apologies Bad or missing keyboard. Press F1 to continue.... |

| Anonymous Coward User ID: 71654592 United States03/28/2019 01:24 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Jussie Smollett's attorney Patricia Brown-Holmes once more slammed the Chicago Police Department after they released their files in the "Empire" star's case. Quoting: ~kpm~ “We are disappointed the local authorities have continued their campaign against Jussie Smollett after the charges against him have been dropped. The facts are clear. The Assistant State’s Attorney appeared in court and dismissed the charges. Mr. Smollett forfeited his bond. The case is closed. No public official has the right to violate Mr. Smellett’s due process rights," Brown-Holmes told Fox News in a statement. [link to www.foxnews.com (secure)] I've seen far more than 10K bail for trivial and victimless offenses. It should have been 60-100K. I spent more than that on a lawyer for a divorce. WTF is happening here when the guy is obviously guilty of conspiracy to convict at least two White random people of violence and hate crimes. The feds can easily find something to hang him for 5-10 years, and he should do at least that much time. As far as his "reputation" - I'd never even heard of him before this incident, and he deserves to be as infamous as a random homeless beggar. A civil suit needs to be instituted on the part of John Doe White folks that would have been smeared utterly by his actions, had they succeeded. So the 10k bond is a red flag. We need comparisons. |

(OP) User ID: 76338020 United States03/28/2019 02:11 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | So the FBI and DoJ are good guys now and will do the right thing? Quoting: Anonymous Coward 77489703 I get confused about when I'm supposed to think the FBI is bad and when I'm supposed to think it's good. My general test goes like this: Q. Are they an alphabet agency? A. If yes, they are bad. This has been tested and worked with amazing results. I'd rather be real and rejected than fake and accepted. Individualism is the logical conclusion of rational political/social opinions. Leftism is the absence of any. |

User ID: 75162463 United States03/28/2019 02:21 PM  Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | In my humble opinion, the FBI as a whole is a trusted organization, especially the local rank and file. It is/was the Washington based leaders at the very top who were playing politics. Chicago may be the exception because its Chicago, but I still have trust in the FBI. Will be interesting to see if/how many FBI agents from non-Chicago jurisdictions are assigned to the Smollett case. I am Billy Ringo and I approve of this message. Paid for by belligerent derelicts for Ringo. |
