Embattled Chicago prosecutor Kimberly Foxx never legally recused herself from Jussie Smollett case

Cook County, Ill., State's Attorney Kimberly Foxx never legally recused herself from the Jussie Smollett case, her office said Thursday.

“The State’s Attorney did not formally recuse herself or the Office based on any actual conflict of interest,” Foxx’s spokeswoman Tandra Simonton said in a statement, two days after the charges against the "Empire" actor were dropped. “As a result, she did not have to seek the appointment of a special prosecutor under [state law].”

The spokeswoman said Foxx’s office used the word “recuse” to talk about her involvement in the case as a “colloquial use” rather than the legal definition of the term.

Recuse means recuse, not sort of unofficially stand to one side and pretend to recuse one's self from a legal issue. It's clear that the marching orders were coming from on high and the Chicago political machine complied, and lied.

Soros would not let her, since Soros owns / runs Chicago along with many other cities / states. That is how he is taking over the US with his Liberal Anarchist ways. He does this everywhere. Soros is pushing these illegals for the same reason.

She recused myself but didn't really recuse herself.

Is that sort of like putting on an imaginary condom?
