Limbaugh also called out the media for their Smollett coverage. Conservative radio host Rush Limbaugh weighed in on the Jussie Smollett controversy Thursday saying the “Empire” actor was just another example of the left trying to portray America as a country filled with hate.
“He’s a typical left-wing Democrat today! By the way, he paid these guys with a check. The guy’s an idiot in addition to everything else,” Limbaugh said on his radio program. “The left is nothing but phony hate crimes, phony alleged hate crimes, phony charges, made-up stories.”
Smollett was charged in Chicago police for planning a fake attack, accusing two white strangers of calling him racist and homophobic names, putting a noose around his neck, pouring bleach on him and using a pro-Trump slogan.
