Jussie Smollett’s Family Releases Statement – Claims ‘Racist, Homophobic’ Hate Crimes Are Happening on a Daily Basis Across the Country

Jussie Smollett’s family released a statement on Thursday laden with Marxist propaganda. 

“Empire” star Jussie Smollett, 35, claims he was brutally beaten by 2 white men in ski masks, dressed in all black at 2 AM in Chicago this week.

Smollett says he was walking to Subway to get something to eat at 2 AM when 2 white men wearing ski masks put his head in a noose, poured bleach on him and screamed, “This is MAGA country!”

Someone also yelled, “Aren’t you that fag*ot ‘Empire’ nig*er?”

For starters, Chicago Police and detectives have found zero video surveillance of the alleged attack on ‘Empire’ actor Jussie Smollett even though they have viewed hundreds of hours of footage.

Jussie Smollett reportedly still had the ‘noose’ around his neck nearly an hour after the ‘attack’ when police officers arrived on the scene. Weird.

All the detectives have is a few seconds of video of two people lawfully walking down the street near the alleged crime — in other words, they have nothing.

Jussie Smollett’s story is falling apart and now he is refusing to give his phone to investigators.

But Smollett’s family continued to push the hate hoax on Thursday in a statement given to ABC News.

Smollett’s family called the ‘racist and homophobic’ attack an act of “domestic terrorism” and claimed that racist, homophobic attacks are happening on a “daily basis all across the country.”

“In the early hours of Tuesday morning, our beloved son and brother, Jussie, was the victim of a violent and unprovoked attack. We want to be clear, this was a racial and homophobic hate crime,” the family wrote in the statement to ABC News. “Jussie has told the police everything from the very beginning. His story has never changed, and we are hopeful they will find these men and bring them to justice.”

“We are so grateful that God saw him through this cowardly attack alive,” the statement continued. “We want people to understand these targeted hate crimes are happening to our sisters, brothers and our gender non-conforming siblings, many who reside within the intersection of multiple identities, on a monthly, weekly, and sometimes even daily basis all across our country. Oftentimes ending fatally, these are inhumane acts of domestic terrorism and they should be treated as such.”

The family added that “radical love is the only solution” to dealing the racism and homophobia they say led to the attack, but warned that “passivity will be our downfall.”

“We, as a family, will continue to work for love, equity and justice until it reigns supreme in our nation and all over the world,” the family added.

There is no proof whatsoever that Jussie Smollett was attacked by white racist Trump-supporters this week yet his family, with the help of the media continue to push the lie.
