National District Attorneys Association Blasts Cook County State’s Attorneys handling Of Jussie Smolett Case 

BREAKING: FBI Is 'Reviewing' Circumstances Surrounding Dismissal Of Criminal Charges Against Smollett, Report Says  . . . "Two law enforcement officials briefed on the matter tell @ABC the FBI is *reviewing* circumstances surrounding dismissal of criminal charges against Jussie Smollett," Elgas tweeted. "ABC News is told this is not an investigation. It is a 'review' or 'inquiry'." . . .  Also here: FBI Reviewing Shady Circumstances Surrounding Dismissal of Jussie Smollett Charges

. . . Cook County State’s Attorney Kim Foxx was communicating with Tina Tchen, a former aide to Barack and Michelle Obama about Jussie Smollett’s case shortly after the ‘Empire’ actor staged the hate hoax crime.

"Tina Tchen sent Kim Foxx an email on February 1st saying, “Hi Kim – I sent an email to your work address I think as well. I wanted to give you a call on behalf of Jussie Smollett and family who I know. They have concerns about the investigation. I am on an 8 am flight to nyc but please call me before then. I land about 1015 Chicago time. My cell is [redacted]. Many thanks!”

"In one text exchange with a Smollett relative (name is redacted), Kim Foxx is reassuring the individual that she spoke to the superintendent and asked for a favor.

SMOLLETTgate: Deep State’s Futile Attempt to Cover-up Operation “Crafty Beaver”

State of the Nation:  . . . "Bottom line: The blowback from SMOLLETTgate has already been fast and furious.  What’s been quite exceptional is that both the MSM and all the traditional Democrat apologists have reacted with unusual scorn to transparently unscrupulous decision to unjustifiably drop such serious charges.  Not only has this incomparable act of prosecutorial misconduct drawn unwanted light to the corrupt Democrat machine operating with impunity in Chicago, Cook County, and Illinois, it has also put the spotlight on the entrenched criminal nexus between Chicago, California and Washington, D.C.  Even Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanuel is extremely unhappy with all the attention.

Facing an FBI and DoJ investigation of Smollett case, Kim Foxx is panicking and changing her story "The fate of the higher-ups who pulled the strings to get Jussie Smollett off the hook is now in the hands of a dummy who is panicking.

"The venerable political machine that runs the most corrupt big city in America, the very city whose gave us the presidency of Barack Obama, is erupting in a political civil war over a case that has riveted the attention of the public.  What makes this story a beacon of hope for reform-minded populists is that the fate of the rascals is now in the hands of an incompetent public official who has outraged the public with obvious corruption of justice, and who is now panicking and making huge mistakes because the walls are starting to close in on her." . . .

. . . "Kim Foxx probably would not be the state’s attorney for Cook County without the financial support of George Soros. The $330,000 he personally contributed to her super PAC for her primary election was followed by another $75,000 after she defeated the incumbent, in the wake of public outrage over suppression of police video of the shooting of Laclan McDonald.  Mr. Soros may have wanted a dummy in the office to assure that instructions would be obeyed, but Foxx now has dug herself a hole and doesn’t understand the need to stop digging.  She is changing her story – always a mistake because it proves she was lying, an absolute no-no for a prosecutor."
