He was public butt-boy #1 for years for the family that phoned in the favor to get Jussie off the hook.

agree, but he knows optics and he did a good job standing up for his police force and the city. there are a myriad of issues with him and his leadership, however I will give him the nod on this one.

Not quite sure how that means people know the Obamas were involved.

His cozy visits to the White House, Obama deep roots in Chicago political theatre could lead people to see a connection.

That's pretty thin stuff

Smollett has been a Hollywood left-wing activist for gay stuff for a while. It makes sense that he would've been at the White House at some point.
Just about everybody from the Obama-wing of the Democrats has been pretty pissed about the Smollett stuff.

I don't think it goes much deeper than the State's Attorney

Basically, I think Smollett just knew a bunch of people who vouched for him, and that resulted in a sweetheart deal that most people wouldn't have gotten. I also think there's some identity solidarity going on, but that's a more sensitive issue. So that's still a significant story, even if there isn't some kind of deeper conspiracy.
Although, it would be fun if the whole theory about this having to do with Kamala Harris's bill somehow proved to be true.

would have needed to make a call. The family was actually friends with Tchen, and she had helped Cooks raise money for her election effort. I'm sure she can pull favors from a lot of pols around the country. She's a pretty big behind the scenes player in her own right.

People trying to make this a national political issue...

You're misunderstanding what's going on. This isn't about all the different national political figures you hate.

It's about politically motivated corruption.

How far and deep it goes is unknown, but there are reasons to be investigating.
Red flags abound. Stop trying to throw water on my popcorn and lawnchair party.
