The saga of Empire star Jussie Smollett’s attack has taken numerous turns, and support for the actor is beginning to wane. As evidence mounts that Smollett may have paid two acquaintances to carry out the alleged racist and homophobic attack that created a wave of media attention, even House Speaker Nancy Pelosi has revoked her sympathies.

Back on January 29, when word of Smollett’s ordeal first broke, Pelosi tweeted, “The racist, homophobic attack on @JussieSmollett is an affront to our humanity. No one should be attacked for who they are or whom they love. I pray that Jussie has a speedy recovery & that justice is served. May we all commit to ending this hate once & for all.” As initially reported by Business Insider, that tweet has now been deleted.

Pelosi’s deputy chief of staff, Drew Hammill, confirmed that the tweet was intentionally taken down. “As the Speaker who passed the fully inclusive Matthew Shepard and James Byrd Jr. Hate Crimes Prevention Act, we spoke out because this appeared to be a deeply troubling incident of violence motivated against vulnerable communities,” Hammill told me. “Given the turn in the investigation, we decided to no longer amplify the original accusation. Following the conclusion of the ongoing investigation, we will comment further. We should all be united in fighting racism and homophobia.”

Last week, the Chicago Police Department arrested brothers Abimbola “Abel” and Olabinjo “Ola” Osundairo on suspicion of involvement in the attack, only to release the pair days later citing “new evidence.” It has since emerged that the Osundairo brothers occasionally associated with Smollett in their work on the Empire set, and the police have stated that their interrogation produced information that “shifted the trajectory of the investigation.” Smollett’s attorneys have vehemently denied their client staged the attack, though the star has not yet agreed to a follow-up interview requested by Chicago police.

As of yet, few notable figures have explicitly revoked their support for Smollett. Empire showrunner Brett Mahoney tweeted on Sunday, “I believe and stand by @JussieSmollett. Keep your head up,” while director Ava DuVernay called into question the Chicago police department’s trustworthiness.

Conservative figures have capitalized on questions surrounding the case, which was originally said to involve suspects wearing “Make America Great Again” hats and shouting “This is MAGA Country!” (Smollett denied making those claims). Donald Trump Jr. spent a portion of Sunday tweeting at celebrities and political figures including Kamala Harris to revoke their support for Smollett, though Pelosi wasn’t among his targets.
