Michelle Obama Caught up in the Jussie Smollett Scandal: Chi. Mayor & Police Chief Furious With Interference in Hate Crime Hoax Case
March 26, 2019 Tea Party Conservative US News
If you’re wondering why Jussie Smollet is a free man today, because Chicago prosecutors dropped all charged against the Empire actor suddenly and with very flimsy explanation – consider this: Michelle Obama may have had something to do with his release, and she is surely connected directly to the case. Ironically, former Barack Obama Chief of Staff Rahm Emanuel is now the Mayor of Chicago and he is pretty pissed off.
According to the Chicago Sun-Times, Michelle Obama’s former chief of staff Tina Tchen reached out to Kim Foxx and wrote in a text message, “I wanted to give you a call on behalf of Jussie Smollett and family who I know. They have concerns about the investigation.” Tchen then set up a call with Foxx before Tchen left on an 8 a.m. flight to New York. Foxx then tried to get the charges dropped. Nice to have friends in such high places, especially when you’re looking at 48 years in the Chicago slammer.
Kim Foxx is the Cook County State’s Attorney. Three weeks ago, she tried to convince Chicago police to turn the Jussie Smollett case over to the FBI. When the Chicago police denied her request, she recused herself from the case. Assistant State’s Attorney Joe Magats took over the case and promptly dropped all 16 charges because – get this – Smollett is not a ‘violent threat’ to the community. Oh really? As long as you’re not a violent threat, pretty much do anything you want? Yep… Being friends with Michelle doesn’t hurt either.
