about being jumped on the street by two Trump supporters.

the Jussie Smollett case back into the spotlight.

That's right. He's once again facing charges in Chicago

for claiming he was the victim of a hate crime attack.

NEWSMAN: This morning, Smollett is facing six new charges

of disorderly conduct for lying to police.

The move a stunning reversal after prosecutors dropped

all 16 charges the actor originally faced.

In this new indictment, the special prosecutor's office

says Smollett made numerous false statements

Yes, Jussie Smollett is back in the headlines,

until you remember that his plan all along

was to get a recurring story line that doesn't go away.

So he kind of got what he wanted, you know?

And look, I know what Jussie did was wrong.

Because he gets into trouble now for calling in fake crimes,

but those Permit Pattys who made those bullshit calls to 911,

they live their lives. They just do their thing.

-(cheering and applause) -In fact, maybe...

so they then cancel their recommendation.

And then Trump says he's totally staying out of it.

That's not what he did. He's staying out of it

the same way the Kool-Aid Man stays out of a room.

"I just had 'will you marry me?' written in the sky.

Anybody could have said yes. It could have been anybody."

for Trump to get involved in his friend's case,

it was also totally unnecessary because there...

If there's one person who looks like he can break out of prison

you guys remember how the Titanic crashed?
