Have Hate Crime Hoaxes Jumped The Shark After Jussie Smollett? Open Thread

The plague of hate crime hoaxes that the media has exploited to promote anti-Trump sentiment may have finally reached the point of diminishing returns as it appears that Jussie Smollett’s story was a giant lie.

The black homosexual star of Fox’s “Empire” television series is likely in big legal trouble after the brothers who he enlisted to help him with his con job that he was attacked on a freezing Chicago night by two Trump supporters in MAGA hats who beat him up, poured bleach on him and strung a rope around his neck.

But it was all a lie and after police were able to trace the rope’s purchase to the brothers, the two sang like canaries and according to reports, a grand jury is being convened in the case. Smollett has also hired a criminal defense attorney.

You would have thought that the media and Democrats would have learned something after they distorted and defamed the Covington Catholic teens only a few weeks ago but they ran with Smollett’s outlandish claims which were described as a “lynching” by the top two 2020 black Democrats Kamala Harris and Cory Booker.

Kamala sez:

Now Obama V.2:

Once Smollett’s story had completely fallen apart, neither of the two would own up to their exploitation of racial tensions to gain political advantage.

How bad are things for the grievance pimps? Smollett just lost Mac Daddy Al Sharpton:

The question is that now that this has blown up completely, how can ANYTHING that the media promotes as a “hate crime’ EVER be believed again?

What do you say Deplorables? Is it high noon for the SJW-media mob?
