Perhaps it was just a coincidence, but it appears nearly all of the political talking shows on Sunday ignored the results of one of the biggest trials of the year — Jussie Smollett’s guilty verdict. One would think that this would be a popular topic to discuss. It dominated news headlines, and many people, from entertainers to the president and vice president, gave their opinions on it. Compared to the Kyle Rittenhouse trial about a week earlier, there seemed to be a shocking lack of discussion about Jussie Smollett.
Granted, most of the shows spent a considerable amount of time talking about the devastating tornado system that hit the Mississippi Valley, Midwest, and Southeast on Saturday. And these tragic events do warrant news coverage and discussions, especially at the expense of a sinister, manipulative fraud who faked a hate crime. However, it’s hard to think that the same lack of discussion would have taken place had Smollett been found innocent or the hate crime been legitimate. Rest assured, if the Smollett incident were truthful, it would have been the lead story on Sunday, regardless of the tornadoes.
Jussie Smollett is a fraud and was exposed as such this week. While no one wanted him to suffer the physical pain and trauma he claimed was real, these people so desperately wanted his “hate crime” to be legitimate. They wanted to continue to advance the incorrect and false notion that the United States is a racist country where people prey on minorities. It is why so many people, such as Kamala Harris, Joe Biden, and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, commented on the initial reports but were utterly silent after Smollett was found guilty. He shattered the dreams of every one of these woke, progressive pundits and politicians.
The case of Jussie Smollett and its aftermath is indicative of everything wrong with the woke, liberal, Democratic segment of the U.S. and their accomplices in the mainstream media. It epitomizes every lie these people tell to cause division and anger in this country, specifically regarding race. While these people constantly beat the drum of the fear and worry associated with white supremacy, Jussie Smollett proved that one needs to create fantasy and fiction for actions to match their rhetoric regarding race and hate crimes.
