The actor from the show Empire who says he was attacked in Chicago by two white guys who yelled "this is MAGA country" while they poured bleach on him, called him anti-gay and racist slurs, beat him and put a noose around his neck has a major problem. Jussie Smollett was very clear about his story, but now two men have been arrested for assault and battery for the attack. The two guys arrested are two actors who also appeared on Empire as extras. They are black immigrants from Nigeria. To say the least, Smollett's claim that the attackers were white must be untrue. These two guys from Nigeria are also not the sort of people who would be yelling about "MAGA country" or who would yell racial slurs at Smollett.
The current story making the rounds is that Smollett may have arranged the attack with these two guys because he was concerned that he was about to be written off the show. Smollett clearly knows the two "attackers"; among other things, he follows them on Instagram.
If this turns out to have been a hoax, I hope that the DA brings charges against Smollett. He would truly deserve it.
