Joshua and Kelly Ziminski were captured many times on video rioting on August 25, 2020 during the Kenosha Riots. Kelly pleaded guilty to Obstructing an Officer and Failure to Comply with Emergency Management Order of Local Government, both misdemeanors. Joshua is currently out on bond for Arson (Felony), Disorderly Conduct / Use of a Dangerous Weapon (Misdemeanor), and Obstructing an officer for his role in the rioting and lighting a trailer on fire. Joshua Ziminski can be seen on video firing a pistol just moments before Rittenhouse would shoot and kill Joseph Rosenbaum in self-defense. Progressive Kenosha District Attorney Michael...

Binger said during trial that he would not do any media statements about Kyle Rittenhouse after the trial was done. He said it would violate his ethical obligations as a prosecutor. Then he lost. Guess what Binger did next? That's right. He went on Miranda Warnings, a podcast by the New York State Bar Association. Let's Review it.

If you’re politically on the Right in America, you can no longer count on equal justice under the law. Ihave often heard folk tales about how the Left used to be skeptical of state power. To a small extent, it still is. But only when the person in the defendant’s chair isn’t considered a political enemy. After quite clearly acting in self-defense, Kyle Rittenhouse has been dragged through a sham trial. A regular kangaroo court has been in session in Kenosha County, Wisconsin for weeks. The ringleader of the circus is a state prosecutor called Thomas Binger, who bears an...

Everyone is waiting with baited breath for the Rittenhouse verdict. So many comments/commentaries on what is going to happen. If he is aquitted, the Anti-fa/BLM/Leftists will riot, claiming that their soldiers were unfairly gunned down/wounded and justice was not served. If he is found guilty, they are still going to riot. The reason is that they are going to claim that their guys were justified in trying to beat up/kill Rittenhouse and they will see that they have advocacy/protection from the government for rioting, looting, destruction of property, and assault/killing of conservatives. It will be open season on conservatives and...

The enduring mystery of the Kyle Rittenhouse criminal trial, which went to a jury Tuesday, has been the identity of "Jump Kick Man." As Rittenhouse ran away from a crowd of people, he testified that one of the pursuers hit him in the head with his skateboard. When Rittenhouse fell to the ground, Jump Kick Man flew through the air and stomped on his head. Rittenhouse fired two shots at Jump Kick Man, but missed. Almost immediately, the man who had struck Rittenhouse with his skateboard, Anthony Huber, hit him with the skateboard again, and Rittenhouse fired a single round,...

There could be a verdict in the Rittenhouse trial as early as today. Closing arguments (and antics, in the case of the prosecutor, see picture below) were made yesterday.Assistant District Attorney Thomas Binger argued that Rittenhouse provoked the attack, thereby forfeiting his right to self-defense. Rittenhouse instigated the first shooting by pointing his weapon at people, and caused the subsequent encounters by creating an “active shooter” situation in which protesters felt an urgency to disarm him.While making that claim Binger demonstrated by picking up Kyle’s rifle and aiming it at the spectator section of the courtroom, with his finger on...

After lecturing Rittenhouse on gun safety, Binger raised Rittenhouse’s firearm and pointed it at people in the courtroom with his finger on the trigger.

Prosecutor Thomas Binger made the unusual argument on Monday in a Kenosha, Wisconsin county court that the mob had the “right” to chase Kyle Rittenhouse after he shot Joseph Rosenbaum, and that he had no right to defend himself against them. Binger, delivering his closing argument in the 10-day murder trial, argued that Rittenhouse had provoked the violence that led to the shooting deaths of Joseph Rosenbaum and Anthony Huber, and the severe wounding of Gaige Grosskreutz near midnight on Aug. 25, 2020, during riots that were led by Black Lives Matter demonstrators in the small Midwestern city. Though all...

Well we made it to another Caturday.My mood is somewhere between this:and this:“Go ahead, make my day, punk.”…with a definite prejudice towards the racist cat on the bottom. It’s not my fault the insanity continues unabated. So I leave you with this:What under any other circumstance would be a rhetorical question now passes for legitimate cross-examination in show trials.When I look at that supercilious soy-boy prosecutor, Binger, all I see is another politically ambitious hack looking to become a household name in order to advance his career. His ambition vastly outstrips his skill, knowledge or integrity; in other words he’s...

Kyle Rittenhouse was 17 years old when he shot and killed a convicted pedophile and convicted woman-beater during the Kenosha Riots of 2020. He also shot and hurt a career criminal on the evening of August 25, 2020. All three of these men were apparently attempting to harm Rittenhouse according to multiple videos we’ve all seen. Kenosha’s DA, Michael Graveley (D) made the decision to charge Rittenhouse with a large plethora of felonies. Usually Graveley takes high profile cases, but in this case, he didn’t want to. Most of the legal community believes that the State will be unable to...

For the first time, the public can see the search warrant that was petitioned for and signed by former Judge Mary K. Wagner (D) for the contents of Gaige Grosskreutz’s cell phone. On September 23, 2020, less than one month after career criminal Gaige Grosskreutz seemingly attempted to shoot and kill 17-year-old Kyle Rittenhouse, Kenosha Police asked a judge for a search warrant. They wanted to seize and analyze the contents of Grosskreutz’s cell phone. Grosskreutz was the third man shot by Rittenhouse on August 25, 2020 and the only to survive. Grosskreutz is depicted on still photos and video...

The son of legendary TV newsman Ted Koppel died early Monday after a night of drinking that ended in the seedy Manhattan apartment of a pub crawl acquaintance. Andrew Koppel, a 40-year-old attorney with the New York City Housing Authority with a history of alcohol problems, was declared dead around 1:30 a.m., according to the New York Post. Police sources told the newspaper Koppel had stumbled two and a half hours earlier into the Washington Heights apartment of Russell Wimberly, a waiter he had met 12 hours earlier in a Hell's Kitchen bar. A roommate of Wimberly, Belinda Caban, told...

JAMES CITY -- Oswaldo Martinez watches the television show "Law and Order" to learn about the American justice system. He can't hear what the characters are saying, but with the help of a sign-language interpreter, he can sometimes follow the plot. But the 35-year-old man, who can't hear or speak, still doesn't understand enough to face his own trial on rape and murder charges in the 2005 death of a James City County teenager, a psychologist testified Wednesday in Williamsburg-James City County Circuit Court.
