Woah…bet you didn’t see THIS coming, Jussie!
Every once in a while, a Democrat leader surprises the crap out of you.
After the charges were dropped against Jussie Smollett, I figured every Leftist leader in the country would be cheering their support.
And for the most part, they were.
But shockingly enough, one of the most visible – and highly liberal – Democrats in the country reacted very differently.
In fact, he reacted the way most sane, reasonable Americans reacted: with outrage.
After all, 16 felony counts don’t magically disappear overnight without something fishy happening behind closed doors…
And unbelievably enough, Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanuel agrees!
Via TheWrap:
“This is a whitewash of justice,” Emanuel said Tuesday afternoon during a fiery press conference alongside Chicago police superintendent Eddie Johnson.
“A grand jury could not have been clearer.”
Rahm stands stoically with the police on this issue, and clearly believes justice was NOT done.
He echoed the sentiments of Chicago police superintendent Eddie Johnson, who said that he trusts the work of the detectives.
Furthermore, Rahm says the $10,000 fine assessed to Smollett “doesn’t come close” to the amount of money spent by the city in presenting this case.
He even slammed Smollett for using hate crime laws to self-promote his career!
If you didn’t already know, Smollett was sentenced to community service (which they said he already served), and that $10,000 fine.
That’s it.
Again, 16 felony counts are gone, and the judge even moved that the case be sealed, so nothing can ever happen to Smollett!
The Chicago police and the Mayor have every right to feel both furious and cheated.
But isn’t it a little surprising to hear the far-left Emanuel speak so vehemently about this issue … and NOT on the side you expected him to be?
Well, you have to give credit where credit is due; the Mayor did the right thing here.
And we all have to hope that this case goes to a higher court one day, and then finally Smollett will be punished for his crime!
SHARE if you wholeheartedly agree with the Chicago police and Rahm Emanuel!
