In the suit, they are claiming that Smollett planned out the attack and even directed it. The brothers, Ola and Abel Osundairo, say the stunt was all about advancing Smollett\u2019s career.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ccffff;\">To recap, recall that Smollett earlier this year claimed that he had been beaten up by a pair of white males \u2014 presumably supporters of POTUS Donald Trump because he claimed they were wearing red MAGA caps \u2014 who shouted racial and homosexual epithets at him as they beat him during the cold, wee hours one morning.
