From Kenosha riots to Kyle Rittenhouse

The full acquittal of Kyle Rittenhouse is now in. The result was hardly a surprise to many of us who watched the trial rather than the media coverage. The jury spent days carefully considering the evidence and could not find a single count that was supported beyond a reasonable doubt. In rendering its verdict, the jury fulfilled its core function in our legal system. The jury was designed to protect an individual from becoming the grist of a criminal justice system. As the Supreme Court noted in Duncan v. Louisiana (1968): "Providing an accused with the right to be tried by a jury of his peers gave him an inestimable safeguard

I think people are beginning to wake up and see how dishonest the democrat controlled media is. Soon they will no more journalistic credibility than the old Soviet Unions TASS, where all their citizens knew it was BS.

As a part of "everyone" I am not angrier. I had already placed the media in the correct space: the garbage. No TV in my house since 1984, and no democrat-controlled newspaper. I note also that one of the best progress in medicine has been the removal of all Time or Newsweek magazines from doctor offices.

At twenty years old I returned from war. What I lived and what I witnessed on television at home were two different stories. Cronkite, young Rather along with Nuttly and Stinky were liars and manipulators. I told my parents that but their response were they can't lie there's a law against that. Well here we are and I'm still right it's why everything I question knowing it's a lie to manipulate the real ignorant. The left plays the long game repeat the lie day in and day out until everyone believes it's the truth. The latest is the trial of Rittenhouse but the left has doubled down on their lie so let's see the results.

If one of the mainstream media outlets would move to the center, not even the right, they would rake it in. If CBS, or ABC would just call things straight, they would dominate the ratings. If for no other reason, one of them should do it.

If #4 and others want proof about the nightly lies that Cronkite told on his broadcast, get a copy of John O'Neill's Swift Boat book that came out in 2004. He wrote a devastating expose' not only of Kerry, but of Cronkite and others, who by the way, are hanging in Hanoi's Hall of Heroes museum. He included an actual quote from the General who was in charge of the North's military. The guy said they were within six weeks of surrender, but Cronkite's lies about the war gave their morale a boost. Cronkite literally stole the victory from our boys. Our media has been crooked for decades, and Cronkite is the founder of all the corruption and lies in this profession. They have zero credibility, for they willfully enable all the corruption to happen instead of writing about it in their publications.

People who believe what the Enemedia put out, are living in a world that does not exist. They believe huge swaths of things which are not real, not true, not factual.....yet, in their dim, lazy, hazy, disinformed, misinformed lives....they believe lots of non-factual, even counter-factual things. And almost ALL that is known this event, as known from "the media", is misinformation - from the false information about Blake being shot. The media was reporting he was unarmed, a lie, he had a knife, and the he was not doing anything wrong, when he had assaulted the owner the vehicle and was trying to steal it and kidnap two children, and was resisting arrest with violence.....reaching for the knife, when shot. And he was often reported "murdered" by police in various social media misinformation cases, when he is very much alive. And then almost ALL the pertinent facts were omitted from the Rittenhouse case, and lies generously slathered over the scene by the media. "Illegal weapon", "white supremacist", and lots more.....ALL lies. And the facts that all three who were shot were criminals, including a convicted child rapist? Invisible in 95% of the media. That Rittenhouse was a lifeguard in Kenosha, his father lived in Kenosha, and that he was a Fire Cadet learning to put out fires and first aid.....on his own time -- ALL ignored by 95% of the media. The truth is that he is a very civic minded young man, genuinely interested in learning how to help people. Going to help prevent the riot, provide first aid and put out fires.....totally in character with a person who wants to help. That he spent the earlier part of the day cleaning up grafitti.......ignored in the media. That he did provide first aid....ignored. That there was an interview by a 'citizen journalist' of Mr. Rittenhouse a short time prior to the shootings, where he talked about helping people with his prominent first aid kit on his belt, and his fire extinguishing capability, and only mentioned the rifle, slung unobtrusively on his back when asked.....'to defend myself'. No bluster, no bravado, no threats, just expressing his intent to help people and, if necessary, defend himself. The media are mostly just evil propagandists. They want to obscure the truth for their leftist hate propaganda purposes.

Jury was unanimous on Day 1of deliberations, found self defense on the charges pertaining to Jump kick/Huber on the 17th. Found self defense on Grosscrotch on the 18th. That was a Mob of four people all attacking Rittenhouse at once, while he was down on the ground, on his back.. CLEARLY 100% self defense, fully on film, no room for ANY doubt(attacker 4 was a guy in a red shirt, that turned and ran as soon as kyle swung his gun that way) Jury was "Normal People" Only the Rosenbaum charge was left still under debate by the 19th, not so clear on film, single assailant...and after careful consideration that TOO was found to be self defense.(One wonders if the last minute, clearer, video the prosecutors dropped sealed the deal for Acquittal,the Jury ignoring the specious claim of "Provocation" at the beginning of it, and being able to see more clearly the actual confrontation that ended it.)

In the days after the Democratic Party’s collapse in the Virginia governor’s race, party strategists descended on the commonwealth to figure out what went wrong and understand just how bad the national outlook might be next year. What they discovered, largely through focus groups and polling, was even worse than expected. The problems cut far deeper than the failings of their gubernatorial nominee, Terry McAuliffe, or President Joe Biden’s flagging approval ratings. Rather, the Democratic Party’s entire brand was a wreck.

President Biden went for a colonoscopy Friday and his doctor pronounced his brain is fine. So now he and his inner sanctum have let it be known he plans to run again in 2024, when he would be 82. No one really believes any of it. For one thing, where is his cognitive test? That’s the question increasingly on American minds. It’s clear, from his often bizarre or befuddled behavior, that something is not quite right with the president, which is why 59 percent of voters want him to take a cognitive test and release the results, according to a new McLaughlin & Associates survey

Less than 24 hours after the Congressional Budget Office announced that the “Build Back Better” (BBB) bill will increase the federal deficit by $367 billion, House Democrats passed the $1.75 trillion legislation with no GOP votes. This bill, essentially a far left wish list of climate and social spending boondoggles, will certainly exacerbate inflation if passed by the Senate. Thus the absence of public support for BBB. A new Harvard/Harris poll asked registered voters, “Do you think a $1.5 to $2 trillion dollar social spending bill will lead to more inflation, less inflation, or would it have no effect on inflation?” A majority (56%) answered, “More.”

Roughly 12 months ago President Joe Biden became the first Democratic nominee to win Arizona’s Electoral College votes since 1996. Today, his job approval rating in the state is cratering. In a fresh poll from Arizona polling firm OH Predictive Insights, Biden garnered a 42% job approval rating. The president is doing even worse — 35% — with independents, a key voting bloc in a Southwestern battleground that has evolved into a bona fide swing state. Overall, 55% of Arizona voters disapprove of the job Biden is doing as commander in chief. Biden’s political troubles have not translated into an improvement in the standing of former President Donald Trump.

The famous philosopher and mathematician Blaise Pascal once declared that "the only shame is to have none." The problem with shame is it assumes a sense of guilt over one's actions. In the age of rage, there appear fewer and fewer actions that are beyond the pale for politics. Take Adam Schiff and the Steele dossier. While even the Washington Post has admitted that it got the Russian collusion story wrong in light of the findings of Special Counsel John Durham, House Intelligence Committee Chair Adam Schiff, D-Calif., is still insisting that he was absolutely right to promote the discredited Steele dossier.

Sen. Joe Manchin of West Virginia has become a purveyor of political wisdom these days, simply for speaking out for the sensible center. Earlier this month, he drove progressives crazy with another aphorism of common sense: “We can't go too far left. This is not a center-left or a left country. We are a center, if anything, center-right country." Denying that political reality is at the heart of the Democrats’ political problems these days. Party leaders seem genuinely to believe that they can win swing-state elections by mobilizing their base and tying every Republican to former President Trump. The strategy backfired badly in Virginia (and nearly in New Jersey)

During his closing argument on Monday, Assistant District Attorney Thomas Binger called the crowd that had been rioting on the night of August 25, 2020, a crowd that "was full of heroes" because they were trying to stop an "active shooter," that shooter being Kyle Rittenhouse. "You know, we’ve had several police officers testify that in an active shooter situation, their first instinct, their first training is to go in and stop the threat. They don’t sit there and wonder, well, maybe it was self-defense. I don’t know, I’m going to, you know, wait and see. And every day we read about heroes that stop active shooters.
Biden’s Moribund Vaccine Mandate 11 replies
Posted by Garnet 11/15/2021 5:24:44 AM Post Reply
The Biden administration will inevitably ask the Supreme Court to review last Friday’s decision by the 5th Circuit Court of Appeals to halt its vaccine mandate. The effort is likely to be futile, however. Writing for the appeals court, Judge Kurt Engelhardt confidently predicted that the mandate’s challengers “are likely to succeed on the merits” under judicial review. Engelhardt took particular exception to the attempt to impose the mandate through the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA), pointing out that the Constitution’s Commerce Clause and the nondelegation doctrine preclude OSHA from making such “sweeping pronouncements on matters of public health affecting every member of society in the profoundest of ways.”

As the 2022 midterms approach, the Democrats face what may well be an insurmountable obstacle blocking their attempt to retain their thin congressional majorities. The support they once enjoyed among nonwhite voters is softening. This phenomenon has been most obvious among Hispanics, but it is also true to a lesser extent among Black voters. It was the source of considerable comment after the 2020 election, when Trump made unexpected gains with minorities, and the trend was again evident in the recent Virginia elections. This unnerved the Democrats and their media allies who have reflexively resorted to scare tactics involving white supremacy.

It was hard to watch Kyle Ritten­house break down during almost five hours in the witness box Wednesday. Over and over, he was forced to relive the traumatic evening of August 25, 2020, when he was chased by a murderous antifa mob and ended up shooting dead two of his attackers and wounding a third in riot-plagued Kenosha, Wis. He was 17 at the time. Taking a life bears heavily on any normal person, and the baby-faced teen was overcome with emotion as he recounted the moment when he found himself cornered, an angry mob in front of him, and an aggressive Joseph Rosenbaum lunging for his rifle.

Not so much anymore. For the first time in memory, conservatives now connect the FBI hierarchy with bureaucratic bloat, political bias, and even illegality.
