Once You Read These Kyle Rittenhouse Lies, It Sort of Explains the Left's Meltdown Over the Case
Townhall.com ^ | November 20, 2021 | Matt Vespa

The Kyle Rittenhouse trial is over. He’s been found not guilty of all charges. He’s a free man. He’s a patriot. He’s a hero. And if you believe in the rule of law and the right to self-defense, this is a win. The national nightmare for this young man is over. He was the subject of political persecution, being charged for shooting two men and wounding another during the 2020 Kenosha riots. Two men, Joe Rosenbaum and Anthony Huber were trying to kill him. he shot them in self-defense. The video evidence clearly shows that. Gaige Grosskreutz, who survived, admitted to being shot once he approached Rittenhouse armed with a handgun. What’s worse are the lies that have emanated from this incident. They are many and outrageous. Miranda Devine on The New York Post picked the top ten. Once you read them, you can figure out why the Left’s reaction was…interesting. And by that, I mean totally based on fake news (via NY Post):

The central media narrative is that Kyle Rittenhouse is a white supremacist whose mother drove him across state lines with an AR-15 to shoot Black Lives Matter protesters. All lies.

“A white, Trump-supporting, MAGA-loving Blue Lives Matter social media partisan, 17 years old, picks up a gun, drives from one state to another with the intent to shoot people,” was typical from John Heilemann, MSNBC’s national affairs analyst.

So, let’s go through 10 lies about Rittenhouse, debunked in court:

1. He killed two black BLM protesters. All three of the men he shot in self-defense during violent riots in Kenosha on Aug. 25 last year were white.

2. He crossed state lines. He lived 20 miles from Kenosha in Antioch, Ill., with his mother and sisters. But his father, grandmother, aunt, uncle, cousins and best friend live in Kenosha. He had a job as a lifeguard in Kenosha and worked a shift on Aug. 25 before helping clean graffiti left by rioters at a local school. There, he and his friend were invited to join other adults who had been asked by the owners of a used car lot in Kenosha to guard the property after 100 cars had been torched the previous night, when police abandoned the town to rioters. Kyle took his gun to protect himself, since the rioters were violent and armed, including, for instance, Antifa medic Gaige Grosskreutz, who lunged at him with a loaded Glock pointed at his head before he was shot in the arm.

3. Rittenhouse took an AR-15 across state lines. Esquire accused him of “terrorist tourism.” False. His rifle was kept in a safe at his best friend’s stepfather’s house in Kenosha.

4. The gun was illegal. Wrong. Under Wisconsin law, he was entitled to possess the AR-15 as a 17-year-old. The judge dismissed the gun charge, which the prosecution never should have brought.

There are six more lies Devine points out, one of which involves the lies about Rittenhouse wearing medical gloves to cover his fingerprints. Uh, he was administering first aid—also his face is visible. The first is the biggest lie that seems to have eaten away at the Left’s mind like cancer. Rep. Sean Patrick Maloney (D-NY), chair of the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee, delivered a scathing statement about the verdict that was a straight lie. First, the Kenosha protests were sparked by the officer-involved shooting of Jacob Blake, who is still alive. Maloney said he was killed. It also was neck-deep in the insinuation that this was a racially motivated shooting, or at the very least that the victims were black. Rosenbaum and Huber are white dudes. And this was not a BLM protest. It was a riot.

The media and their allies appear to be really upset about the black rioters that Kyle Rittenhouse never shot.

This is the first I’ve heard of it. Is it reliable that the owners of the lot did not ask guys like Kyle to protect it?

the protest was rather desultory and lacking any real passion.

That's because the completely-low-info "activists" found out just yesterday that Kyle shot white guys, not black guys.

So they just stayed in the basement and got stoned.

There’s no way we can keep coexisting with the other side.

The sooner the divorce, the better.

With the present administration in charge, the US is imploding rapidly as a viable society.

"Why is a 17 year old asked to do this? Why are adults putting a juvenile in a dangerous situation?"

I believe he was 18 at the time...

The Left has to lie in order to promote their message.

Read up on how Communism spread in Russia. If the world does not know it now, it never will.

Hopefully Rittenhouse becomes a very wealthy man at the expense of CNN and the leftist media.

Yep, Biden called him a domestic terrorist too. Not just a white supremist.

Until I read the attorney’s closing argument, I never knew that a guy named Zaminski (Sp?) fired a shot first at Kyle.......

Lies are all they have.

If they lose their lies, they cannot function.

But they are reprobate. That is why they cannot discern Romans 1:24-28.

They claim they’re smarter; thereby fulfilling Romans 1:22.

The above probably made some of them mad.

Truth sounds like hate to those who hate the truth.

(All lies. All the time.)

The lies are necessary to them to reinforce their reprobate minds. They can’t live without lies being spoon-fed to them. 🥄

That’s why CNN and MSNBC still exist. Satan is called the prince of the power of the air. He’s certainly the power behind their airwaves.

His spirit now works in these children of disobedience.

Ephesians 2:2 - King James Version

2 Wherein in time past ye walked according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the power of the air, the spirit that now worketh in the children of disobedience:
