‘Empire’ star heartbroken over criticism after attack: ‘You don’t even want to see the truth’

Smollett, who portrays a gay musician on Fox’s “Empire,” said the attack happened on Jan. 29 at around 2 a.m. as he was leaving a Subway restaurant in Chicago. He told police that two attackers got his attention by yelling racial and homophobic slurs at him and then put a noose around his neck and poured an unknown substance, likely bleach, on him, according to an initial police incident report.

    Very cringey video to watch. Robin's body language says she's not buying Jussie's story. Jussie's the same degree a narcicist, as Donald Trump. It's all about him. He's a victim. It's not his fault. And he's never wrong.

Dr. Fauci pleads Fifth over 70x at heated Covid hearing

Update: Fauci had invoked the right over 100 times

Dr. Anthony Fauci, who led the US government response to the Covid-19 pandemic, invoked his Fifth Amendment right against self-incrimination, refusing to testify Wednesday just minutes into a Capitol Hill hearing that Republicans outwardly hoped would undermine the scientist and open him to claims of perjury.

Appearing before the Senate Homeland Security and Government Affairs Committee after being subpoenaed by Sen. Rand Paul, Fauci cited what he characterized as the Republican chairman’s “obvious obsession with calling for my prosecution” as his reason for refusing to speak.
