Looks like we found our next president....

I want to know if Empire is giving him back his job?

timesrecordnews You missed a few items. Jussie paid a $10,000 fine (10% of his bond) and did community service. As a first time offender, that is reasonable. He ticked off folks by lying during his standup presser after making a deal with prosecutors. He lied saying he had proven his innocence.

I wish y'all you haters care n show this much outrage over our police killings n ESPECIALLY in Chicago .talking all this negative mess ..white nan gre ofc in murdering innocent ppl attacking black women for no reason what bout that 🤬🤬🤬🤬🔥🔥🔥💜

If Smollet were a Trump supporter, he'd be in jail.

What difference is it between what is happening in Washington. No case brought. Sound familiar.

WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON HERE CRAZIIIIIEEEST STORY EVER!!! DID HE OR DIDN'T HE?

So Wrong, Where is the justice system and who do they work for...

You forgot to add when Michelle Obama & Smollett’s family had Michelle’s assistant, Tchen contact the prosecutor Foxx to ask for her help 👇

Soros in your pocket.

he lies and gets away with it. Must be nice to be him.

so he knew the guys that had attacked him?

he's untouchable

''What a tangled web we weave.............''
