We’ve seen a lot of bad takes from those on the left about the Jussie Smollett case, perhaps chief among them, the awful takes from both Joe Biden and Kamala Harris.
What has happened to today? @JussieSmollettThis hate must not be allowed to continue in our country. It is time to demand an end to hateful behavior in this country. Jussie. https://t.co/o8ilPu68CM

.@JussieSmollettOne of my closest friends, he is kind and gentlest. I’m praying for his quick recovery.
This was an attempt at modern day lynching. A person should not have to be afraid for their safety because they are gay or of their skin color. It is time to confront hate.

It’s never a good idea for a politician to weigh in on an ongoing case. That was something that people used to know. However, the Democrats and media overreacted to this case in an attempt to make President Donald Trump look bad.
When White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki was asked if they had “learned any lessons” from “rushing to judgment when a crime is alleged,” Psaki’s response took some kind of chutzpah.
REPORTER: “Since the [Smollett] guilty verdict, are there any lessons learned here on rushing to judgement when a crime is alleged?”

“There are lessons learned, perhaps for everybody who commented at the time, including former President Trump,” Psaki said.
The people who attack Trump every chance and say that everything is due to Trump suddenly feel the need to cover him by saying that he also commented on Smollett. What cowardice! How would they survive without Trump? They wouldn’t have anything to say and would spit out their lips from all the flapping.
The difference is Trump said the incident was “horrible,” but he didn’t use it to push a political agenda. He didn’t make up stuff about it, like calling it a “modern-day lynching.” He made a simple human comment that it sounded horrible.
But once again, the White House default position, even in this, is “but Trump.” Notice what is missing from Psaki’s comments as well? There’s no acknowledgment of the lie to smear Trump supporters and how wrong that was — not just to lie about a hate crime but about Trump supporters.
Kamala Harris was also a friend of a prominent liberal. Is there any apologies for Trump supporters? Anybody who believes that Trump supporters roam the streets of Chicago at two a.m. wearing MAGA Hats and seeking to attack gay television stars will be believed anything.
In a nutshell, this is Biden’s administration: They are incapable of taking responsibility for any wrongdoing they commit. They haven’t learned anything at all. There are no “lessons” for them to learn in their mind — that’s why Psaki can’t even mention Biden, she had to deflect to Trump.
