Jerry Nadler Wants to Sic the DOJ on Rittenhouse Following Acquittal

House Judiciary Committee Chairman Rep. Jerry Nadler (D-N.Y.) called the acquittal of Kyle Rittenhouse “heartbreaking” and said that it sets a “dangerous precedent.” He’s now calling on the Department of Justice to review the verdict.

“This heartbreaking verdict is a miscarriage of justice and sets a dangerous precedent which justifies federal review by DOJ,” Nadler tweeted. “Justice cannot tolerate armed persons crossing state lines looking for trouble while people engage in First Amendment-protected protest.”

Rittenhouse did not cross state lines with an AR-15, but was, in fact, provided with the weapon earlier in the day.

Looting and rioting are also not protected by the First Amendment.

Nadler is part of the global cabal to destroy America.

The unabated riots are the plan.

There all getting paid massive amounts of money to do it too.

Anyone here who is surprised by this hasn’t been following the DEMs for the last 40+ years.

The DOJ can't do squat.

. “Justice cannot tolerate armed persons crossing state lines looking for trouble while people engage in First Amendment-protected protest.”

Not only is fat boy nadler wrong, but also hypocritical considering he defends and encourages blm and antifa for actually crossing state lines armed and targeting those who truly defend the U.S. Constitution!

DOJ should investigate the Nadler poop wiggle walk before he desecrates the Congressional Chamber.

With Garland not looking all that great in the public eye, and all of the other problems, I think the Brandon Administration will probably want all of this to just go away.

“Justice cannot tolerate armed persons crossing state lines looking for trouble while people engage in First Amendment-protected protest.”

Let us decode Nadlar's meaning:

armed persons crossing state lines = A person who was not actually armed when they crossed state lines, and was actually a local living very close and spending much of his normal time on both sides of the state line.

Looking for trouble = Looking to help people devastated by violence, arson, and looting by cleaning up damage, preventing fires, and rendering emergency first aid.

People engaged in First Amendment rights = People destroying property, looting, burning, and attacking innocent targets they don't like with trailor hitch chains, firearms, and stomping on peoples heads and slamming skateboard into peoples heads. And running down Rittenhouse like a mob of blood thirsty jackals as he tried to avoid trouble and get to the police.

I walked in the house and my wife told me he was found not guilty on all counts. I told her Next the Feds will go after him.

I’ll wager that there were many Nadler from the Lvov Ghetto who could have survived the holocaust if they had the protection of someone like Rittenhouse.

They tried that before; the theory is that certain federal charges don't violate double jeopardy.
After Bernie Goetz was acquitted in the Subway Vigilante case, the government announced he would be prosecuted on civil rights violations.
Trouble is some started to ask if it was a teen's right to mug people.

Who knew!

Idiots like Nadler want to use this as a gun issue more than anything else.....so they’re all singing the same tune we’ve heard before.

Nailer admitting he has no respect for the law. Found not guilty by a jury of his peers... Yet Nadler still wants to punish him. We are dealing with children. Children who throw a fit when they don’t get their way.
