Washington Post Jusse Smollett Felony Conviction Article (9 December 2021) and What Was Omitted -- More Biden-Harris WaPo Political Cover

After originally falling for the Jussie Smollett Fairytale for months, the Washington Post (WaPo) finally had to come clean and admit he was a lying sack of crap but still couldn’t come completely clean about it. Here is how the WaPo article about Smollett’s felony conviction on 9 December 2021, started out but what was left out was predictable. Consistent with the WaPo policy of rarely speaking ill of a Democrat, especially President Joe Biden or Vice President Kamala Harris, the WaPo didn’t even mention in passing how the Prez and Veep fawned over Smollett and even feigned indignation for how he was accosted by those phantom MAGA “thugs” on a cold wintery night in Chicago.

"Jussie Smollett was found guilty Thursday of staging and falsely reporting to police that he had been the victim of a hate crime in Chicago three years ago.

 

A jury in Cook County, Ill., found the former “Empire” actor guilty on five of six charges of felony disorderly conduct, according to the Associated Press. He was acquitted on one. Sentencing for Smollett, who was not taken into custody, will take place at a later date. His representatives did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

 

Smollett, who is Black and gay, told Chicago police in January 2019 that he had been physically attacked and subjected to racist and homophobic slurs late at night in the city’s Streeterville neighborhood. He said his assailants poured an unknown chemical substance on him and yelled, “This is MAGA country,” referring to Donald Trump’s “Make America Great Again” campaign slogan."

 

The article goes on and you can read it in its entirety at the above link if you’re that interested in it….

But you will notice this WaPo article fails to mention even in passing that both President Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris fell for this Smollett fairytale that even Ripley wouldn’t have believed hook, line and sinker.

They are both either too stupid and/or too naïve and gullible to be governing this great nation, here is what they said at the time:

Referring to Jussie Smollet, President Joe Biden tweeted shortly after the incident in 2019: “What happened today to @Jussie Smollet must never be tolerated in this country. We must stand up and demand that we no longer give this hate safe harbor; that homophobia and racism have no place on our streets or in our hearts. We are with you, Jessie.'”

Meanwhile at the time, Vice President Kamala Harris tweeted: '@jussiesmollett is one of the kindest, most gentle human beings I know. I’m praying for his quick recovery. This was an attempted modern day lynching. No one should have to fear for their life because of their sexuality or color of their skin. We must confront this hate.'

Smollett concocted a story Ripley wouldn’t have believed and the gullible idiot team of Biden & Harris fell for it hook, line & sinker.

Think about it for a minute, Smollett says he went out for a Subway sandwich at 0200 in the morning at sub-zero temperatures in crime ridden Chicago and ran into the only two White guys in the city that just happen to be wearing MAGA gear and have a noose with them. They then “recognized” him as if Trump supporters watch a show like “Empire” or anything else Smollett would be in and assaulted him screaming racists and homosexual epitaphs. Who on this planet other than gullible Joe Biden and Kamala Harris would believe that fairytale?

There are lies of omission where important details are left out of a story and lies of commission where outright Fake News lies are included. Liberal DNC propagandist masquerading as WaPo “reporters” are masters at both but this is an excellent example of the former.  This confirms the new WaPo masthead slogan: Democracy Dies in Darkness and the WaPo Is Turning Out the Lights.
