    But more importantly, the police cannot confirm it.

    I wonder what 20th Century Fox and Fox Entertainment will say when they have to man up and admit this is a hoax?

    Wow, guy claims to be beaten on the subway by people yelling about MEGA. What are the chances that both of the Trump supporters in Chicago being on the same train with this guy? Cameras all over the place but no corroborating evidence, no witnesses either. Anyone ever hear of a publicity stunt?

    Meanwhile here is some real news from this weekend in Chicago.
    "52 Wounded Nearly 60 people were shot in Chicago over the weekend".

    Wonderful place Chicago.

    Offensive bigots don't have anything meaningful to offer. They are just promoters of hate and violence.

    It's a shame that ideas and, differences involving them, have devolved into promotion of that kind of thinking.

    LMAO.... he was attacked after getting a sandwich at Subway, not beaten on the subway.... OMG..

    Sounds like there is already some physical evidence to back his story... don't hold your breath that this didn't happen..

    SNIP
    As of Tuesday evening, a Chicago police spokesperson told CNN that investigators canvassed the neighborhood where the reported attack occurred and have found no still images or video from security cameras of the incident.

    The only image of Smollett police obtained from security cameras was inside a Subway sandwich shop near the location of the reported crime. The actor was seen standing alone.

    A dozen police detectives, with the assistance of the FBI, are working the case, according to police spokesperson Anthony Guglielmi.

    Investigators are testing the chemical Smollett said he was doused with and have yet to confirm the nature of the substance.

    Really?

    Chicago PD Says Identification of Alleged Assailants as "White" Is Wrong Because They Reportedly Wore Gloves and Ski-Masks, Preventing Identification

    This story just gets more and more credible, if you ask me.

    Question: How far away was this gang of two or more persons when they positively identified this barely-even-on-tv non celebrity?

    Was Jussie wearing a hat in the 14 degree weather? And it was 2am and dark, right? Does he cut such a distinctive figure that strangers are able to identify his face and his Television Show by silhouette alone? Is there a Celebrity Silhouette spotting guide, like WWII warship spotting guides?

    We have some claims that suggest a random and opportunistic attack, and other claims that suggest a planned attack on a known person for personalized reasons, and the confusion of the two completely-contradictory sets of claims suggests that something is wrong and/or missing here.

    My guess is this guy either got beat up in a lover's quarrel or he some pretty stupid sex acts go bad.

    BTW, did the cops find the rope, or did the guys untie him and take it when they left?

    I don't think this is a national security issue.

    Unbelievable that you fell for this again:

    THE WALKBACKS BEGIN:

    Chicago PD says there is no claim that anyone said anything about "MAGA;" police say they don't know where TMZ got that claim from

    Contra TMZ’s report, Chicago police says that “there is no report of that being said” re: Jussie Smollett’s attackers shouting “This is MAGA country.” Unclear where TMZ got that from. https://t.co/ufiwfTfcnk

    Damn, this is getting deflated quickly.

    Some suckers can take the chrome of a trailer hitch.

    How much of the reporting needs to be proven false before you feel justified?

    Based on what we know and how, let's say, questionable this story is, I'm surprised you haven't ran away from it yet.

    If this story turns out to be true, then I'll be the first to say I jumped to conclusions, but I'll need to qualify it as the story makes no sense as we currently know it.

    It's more Fake News Horseshit.

    Scorching new tidbit:

    Hearing reports that the guys that beat up the black gay actor in Chicago were screaming "wrap up the Mueller investigation!"

    Every hour they find no evidence and your so called facts get disproven my smile gets a little wider.

    Are you going to be ready to apologize when we find out this was a fake claim about him being attacked by maga people?

    You've been played, AGAIN!

    "CNN Commentator" Keith Boykin isn't waiting for confirmation. As usual.

    He's tweeting out the now-debunked "MAGA country" claim and I doubt very much he'll get to correcting that anytime soon.

    Frankly, that sentence in bold leads more credence to the theory he was stalked and followed from his hotel... Not to throw out an obvious point, but what would two MAGA nutjobs be doing watching a predominantly black show close enough to recognize one of the cast members at night??

    But you are correct in that there are a lot of unknowns at this point.

    Hey you're blowing Fake News Smear.

    CNN, in case they delete it tweeted:

    TMZ: "Empire" star Jussie Smollett was a victim of racist, homophobic hate crime attack. The two white men called him a "******" and a "******," put a rope around his neck, poured bleach on him and yelled, "This is MAGA country." https://www.tmz.com/2019/01/29/empi...-attacked-hospitalized-homophobic-hate-crime/ …​

    Remember: "We are real news, Mr. President."

    Sure, I suppose they may have said such in an effort to misdirect the "blame," but I dont blame anyone beyond right wing extremism, racism, and homophobia. All are concerns more so than "MAGA." Unfortunately, many from the former categories adopted that phrasing as a justification and endorsement of their own beliefs.

    ...so CNN quoting and sourcing the TMZ news in a tweet published just a few minutes after the TMZ report is...what to you?
