Jussie was definitely worried about his character being killed off. Back in November the public knew that a main character was going to be in a casket, and Jussie was worried it might be his character.

Then over the next 2 months, after the Empire season ended, he became more and more messianic and more and more trying to be Martin Luther King or Malcolm X. He even tweeted about waking up with bruises like he had been beating himself up in his sleep. He was already having dreams about faking a hate crime to establish himself as the New Martin Luther King Jr.

FOX and Empire denying he was being written out means nothing. Every time a site breaks a cast member being written off a show, everyone denies it. Even the actors are contractually obligated to deny. It ruins the storyline is everyone knows who’s leaving.

Of course they’d deny. One, they don’t want to ruin their suspenseful story. Two, they don’t want to give a possible motive for making this up.

Maybe he was fine being written out but wanted to move to political pundit, campaign advisor, person invited to speak at every dinner, every university as the face of “victims of Trump’s America.”

Booker and Harris urged their fellow politicians to pass the anti-lynching bill they co-sponsored in the Senate.

Booker, a New Jersey Senator, tweeted: “The vicious attack on actor Jussie Smollett was an attempted modern-day lynching. I’m glad he’s safe.

“To those in Congress who don’t feel the urgency to pass our Anti-Lynching bill designating lynching as a federal hate crime–I urge you to pay attention.”

“This was an attempted modern-day lynching. No-one should have to fear for their life because of their sexuality or colour of their skin.” — Kamala Harris

Harris said: “Jussie Smollett is one of the kindest, most gentle human beings I know. I’m praying for his quick recovery.

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi tweeted: “The racist, homophobic attack on Jussie Smollett is an affront to our humanity. No one should be attacked for who they are or whom they love.

“I pray that Jussie has a speedy recovery & that justice is served. May we all commit to ending this hate once & for all.”

Former Vice President Joe Biden said that “what happened today to Jussie Smollett must never be tolerated in this country.

“We must stand up and demand that we no longer give this hate safe harbour; that homophobia and racism have no place on our streets or in our hearts. We are with you, Jussie.”

Maxine Waters said: “Jussie is my friend—a very talented & beautiful human being.

“It is so hurtful that homophobic haters would dare hurt someone so loving and giving. I’m dedicated to finding the culprits and bringing them to justice.

“Jussie did not deserve to be harmed by anyone!”

Oddly though I can't find anything from Michelle Obama.

I think nearly everyone on this thread is mistaken about the motive. It's not about being canned from his tv show or anything like that. I've posted this before and will try to keep it brief.

Jussie sees himself as someone who's here to save the world; it's on his Twitter page. His upbringing and family dynamic were focused on civil rights and activism, and I believe all the children were made to feel somehow special, chosen and set apart--this is just on the basis of statements he and/or siblings have said in interviews; they are civil rights snowflakes.

He's been ramping up his anti-Trump rhetoric for some time--I think this is where he sees his "save the world" mission to be. He sets the stage by constructing that letter, highlighting MAGA as part of the message of hate. After a couple of weeks he raises the stakes: he's attacked by a couple of guys shouting epithets and invoking MAGA. The inference we're to draw is that all this is attributable to Trump and his influence.

Bingo: the NAACP issues a statement about Smollett's attack stating unequivocally that the rise in hate crimes exemplified by the attack on Smollett is directly linked to Trump.

Mission accomplished.

I was likely the very first person to express doubts about Jussie's story on here. SO many people vilified me. The second I started reading the description of the "attack," I said out loud to myself "this didn't happen."

Then someone posted a poll asking if we believed Jussie. At first, Juss was losing. The the obsessed maniac who posted the poll decided to vote for "believe" over and over until it was pretty much evened out. Hysterical.

All this said, Jussie must be a sad, lonely, and confused person to have done this. In his head, he wasn't enough. He had to do a stunt to show "little gay kids that gay people can fight back." He loved the prospect that his "going hard on 45" would become more widely known.

That he didn't understand that simply being a person in this society who works hard and supports himself is enough. The fact that he is on TV, and before this incident could've been seen as a role model is enough. The tragedy of this is that it came from such a wrongheaded place. It was so unnecessary.

That's where we come to, that in addition to being mentally unwell, Jussie must not be the sharpest knife in the drawer. The he thought he could get away with this is shocking. His account is so fucking unbelievable. I wish I could've seen him tell it to Judge Judy. Within 15 seconds should would've stopped him and explained exactly why she knew he was lying.

I hope he gets help, and a long, long rest.

Jussie Smollett paid two men to orchestrate an attack the “Empire” actor claimed was carried out by a pair of homophobic racists, according to a stunning report on Saturday.

The men, brothers from Nigeria who were arrested Wednesday as persons of interest in the alleged assault, but released without charges Friday, are cooperating fully with the probe, several Chicago Police Department sources told Fox 32.

Smollett, 36, who is gay, claimed he was attacked Jan. 29 outside a Subway restaurant in Chicago at 2 a.m. by two men yelling “racial and homophobic slurs.” One attacker put a rope around his neck, he claimed.

But it was the brothers who bought the rope — found around Smollett’s neck– at an Ace Hardware store in Chicago, the sources told the outlet.

Chicago police said Saturday they reached out to Smollett’s lawyer, because they’d like to re-interview him, the Chicago Tribune reported.

The brothers have a “relationship” with Smollett and worked on the smash Fox drama. They also pumped iron with Smollett at the gym, their lawyer, Gloria Schmidt, has said.

Smollett told authorities he was attacked early January 29 by two men who were “yelling out racial and homophobic slurs.” He said one attacker put a rope around his neck and poured an unknown chemical substance on him.

It seems to me that a better way to criticize President Trump would be to take him on over policy rather than to go after his supporters. Perhaps the actor should put down the scripts written for him and pick up a policy paper or two. In real life, a bogus story by a high profile actor will be a story that lingers.
