Shady!!!
It is an account of how Foxx was contacted in the Smollett case by a politically connected lawyer close to Chicago’s most prominent political families, the Obamas and Emanuels.
That lawyer, Tina Tchen, was chief of staff for former first lady Michelle Obama, and she is a friend of Mayor Rahm Emanuel’s wife, Amy Rule. Tchen was apparently a go-between for someone in the Smollett family.
There was literally an “omg” moment in the texts, because Foxx did what was asked of her:
She lobbied Chicago police Superintendent Eddie Johnson to drop the Smollett case and push it over to the FBI.
