You might remember Jussie Smollett. He was the guy who staged a racist and homophobic attack on himself in 2019.
Chicago police say they’re investigating a suspected racist and homophobic attack of Jussie Smollett by two masked men which happened at about 02:00.
They say the actor was punched in the face, had an “unknown chemical substance” poured on him and a rope wrapped around his neck.
Jussie Smollett tells police the two attackers also made reference to MAGA (make America great again) – the slogan often used by then-President Donald Trump and his supporters.
He goes to a doctor and police describe his condition as “good”.
After an investigation it was made plain and clear that he had fabricated the entire thing. The guy staged a fake incident and then claimed victimhood. This became the template for the democrat party today.
Thus far, this ruse has been employed by four democrats- Ras Baraka, LaMonica McIver, Alex Padilla and Brad Lander.
LaMonica McIver and Ras Baraka
Baraka, along with Democratic Representatives LaMonica McIver, Bonnie Watson Coleman, and Robert Menendez Jr. stormed the Delaney Hall detention facility and tried to force their way in. When Baraka was being arrested, McIver assaulted the Homeland Security agents.
During a chaotic 30-second scrum, McIver “Slammed her forearm” into a Homeland Security Investigations (HSI) agent, used both forearms to “forcibly strike” an ICE deportation officer and reached out to restrain an agent attempting to arrest Baraka, yelling “Hell no! Hell no!” as she interjected.
Baraka was arrested but released and charges dropped. McIver was indicted on three federal counts of assaulting, impeding, or interfering with federal law enforcement officers, as announced by interim U.S. Attorney Alina Habba. She leveraged her actions into appearances on CNN and MSNBC, and posts on social media and of course, used it to fundraise -all about her being the victim.
Alex Padilla
Seeing the attention this brought to Smollett and the little-known McIver, Padilla, the Senator from California decided it was his turn to stake out a place in the spotlight. He waited until Kristi Noem was holding a press conference and he, dressed like an illegal and acting like an illegal, crashed the presser demanding to ask questions during Noem’s address. He fought with the Secret Service and found himself taken to the floor and handcuffed. He was not dressed as one would expect a Senator to dress, he did not wait until Noem was finished speaking and he did try to force his way to her. There was no way to know if he meant her harm and the Secret Service acted appropriately and by the book.
Padilla also made the rounds on TV and social media. He even took to the Senate floor to cry and whine like a little b*tch. Within hours he was fundraising off the incident.
He was skewered on X

Padilla can add “insincere” to his resume. He might be the most pathetic of this trio.
Brad Lander
Late to the party and seeking to raise awareness of himself as a candidate for Mayor of New York City, Lander was observed attempting to escort a migrant past ICE agents who were seeking to detain the individual. Video evidence and reports indicate that Lander locked arms with the migrant to shield them from federal agents. He repeatedly stated, “You don’t have the authority to arrest U.S. citizens,” as agents jostled him. Federal agents, some wearing masks and plain clothes, handcuffed Lander and led him into an elevator.
He was detained for several hours and released. Then he whined breathlessly and endlessly about his ordeal:
Tonight, I’ll go home and sleep in my bed. I have a lawyer, I’ll get due process. But Edgardo, whose arm was ripped from mine by ICE agents, has none of those things. That’s why I’ll keep coming back to court, week after week, to make sure that people’s rights are protected.
Then Lander showed up on MSNBC and hit social media. It’s a pattern
Until this happened, very few people would know any of these names. Becoming a crisis actor is one way of gaining notoriety. What they share in common is video evidence of their misdeeds and their denials of what is so very obviously seen in them. The left-wing media is all too happy to oblige.
Jussie Smollett is the modern father of the democrat party.
BTW, I love the image created by Vincent Au. It really nails the issue down.
DrJohn has been a health care professional for more than 40 years. In addition to clinical practice he has done extensive research and has published widely with over 70 original articles and abstracts in the peer-reviewed literature. DrJohn is well known in his field and has lectured on every continent except for Antarctica. He has been married to the same wonderful lady for over 45 years and has three kids- two sons, both of whom are attorneys and one daughter who is in the field of education.
DrJohn was brought up with the concept that one can do well if one is prepared to work hard but nothing in life is guaranteed.
Except for liberals being foolish.
Has been the case for many decades!
40 years ago it was “Rev” al Sharpton and fake rape.
19 years ago it was a WHITE liberal lawyer and Duke rape (liberals like tis). Liber lliars name aNfong! the “Rape” victom in both cases was black. Coincidence? Hardly.
Both cases were anti white lies. Both later prover to be bogus. Midia covered round the clock before proved a lie. Then ‘MEMORY HOLE”! Alex is a repeate of the above; WITHOUt RAPE.
Liberals lie. Have done so at least 80 years!
Making heros or super victims has been the page for a long time. From the beer summit where the police acted foolishly BS, George Floydd, Kyle’s self defense. twisted narratives on smirking pro-life kids it just
The corporate media by headlining these cases has lost credibility, as evidenced by collapsing ratings, reduce salaries, and pink slips.
So keep it up, and the alternate media such as podcasts, will likely replace the corporate or legacy media.
There will always be an audience for this stuff, but it’s increasingly marginalized, especially since it’s being seen as just a fund raising ploy.
Seems like there was always LOTS of money for treachery before DOGE!!
Theater of the absurd is all Democrats have left. Well, that and political violence.
Violence has been a productive, useful tool for liberals for 70years.
e.g. Mario Svio
Were they I would want more Jose Padilla; and If you watch abc they clearly do!
liberals mayhem America; but they are notd umb!
The Demo-Rats have ben steering themselves Far Left and now their going in Circles
I’ve posted MANY times on MANY articles that the DEMOcrat Party should be FORCED to change their name to The HYPOCRITE Party! Nearly everything they DO is a Juicy Smohhle’! If the R’s want to retire their “Stupid Party” moniker, they’d be out on the streets in NYC – especially in the Bronx talking to REAL people about REAL issues and how PRESIDENT TRUMP and Congress has been working to fix some of those issues and will continue only if they have the Majority! Kind of ironic that Sandy went from SERVING drunks to being DRUNK on POWER!! She and the Squad need to go!!
