In the trial of Kyle Rittenhouse, it's the second tough morning in a row for the liberal media, and good news for the defense.

Yesterday, we noted how Morning Joe had to acknowledge that the prosecution of Rittenhouse was "falling apart" after a prosecution witness admitted that the defendant hadn't fired until the witness pointed his gun at him.

This morning, it was CNN's turn to be in the barrel. New Day co-host John Berman tried to shift focus to what he described as the "bonkers" behavior of the trial judge, Bruce Schroeder. And repeated references were made to "criticism" that the judge had received. Some of that criticism came from Morning Joe, where Joe Scarborough called Judge Schroeder "an absolute joke."

But even CNN's own legal expert that New Day brought in wasn't buying it. Defense attorney Joey Jackson, a CNN legal analyst, stated that it was common for judges to harshly reprimand trial lawyers when they disobey instructions. And he opined that the prosecution had done just that. Jackson concluded by saying, "regardless of the criticism, I'm with this judge." And both Jackson and law professor Alexis Hoag said they thought Rittenhouse had helped himself by testifying, with Jackson adding, "very much."

So much for Schroeder being "bonkers!"
