Now that Jussie Smollett has been found guilty of faking an anti-gay, racist hate crime against himself, it’s a good time to reflect on how the left rushed to judgment about Jussie’s absurd claim simply because it fit “the narrative.”
-Matt Margolis
The White House admitted Friday there were “lessons learned” by President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris and their staffs after they rushed to condemn a faked hate crime orchestrated by actor Jussie Smollett during the 2020 presidential campaign...
Harris and Biden never condemned Smollett’s faked hate crime or walked back their statements of support.

You hate to see it, but now that Smollett has been convicted for his own hoax attack in Chicago, punked celebrity supporters are silent, and some of them have already deleted their previously supportive posts of the actor.

Joe Biden: Fooled...
"What happened today to [Jussie Smollett] must never be tolerated in this country,” Joe Biden tweeted. “We must stand up and demand that we no longer give this hate safe harbor; that homophobia and racism have no place on our streets or in our hearts.
We are with you, Jussie."
Kamala Harris: Fooled...

Punked By Hoax, Smears American People...

Bravely taking a stand against hate that didn't exist, these tools aren't the sharpest ones in the drawer. We shall overcome...
If You Still Don't Think...
"if you still don’t think MAGA hats are white hoods after the horrifying assault on Jussie Smollett today you’re wrong you’re just wrong"

Hatred, inequality, racism and discrimination continue to course through our country's veins.

"Heartbroken and furious reading about the attack on @JussieSmollet. I want Trump and all MAGA lunatics to burn in Hell."
Our Country Does Deserve Better...
"Our country deserves better than the kind of morally bankrupt people who have taken our democracy hostage and condone hate crimes. Sending love to Jussie."
Waiting For The Apology...
I want to see all the celebrities and wannabe celebrities who rushed to defend Smollett and slam America confronted and asked for an apology. In person. At their next public events.
