"On Tuesday, the Kyle Rittenhouse prosecution rested its case after its witnesses once again strongly supported Kyle's assertion that he only acted in self-defense. In a righteous world, the judge would, on his own initiative, order a directed verdict in Kyle's favor. Instead, it emerged that there's a plan to terrorize the jurors (and, by implication, the judge). Also the mainstream media, of course, pretended the prosecution had actually proved its case.
Once again, I've turned to Andrew Branca's excellent post summarizing what happened at the trial, and, again,
...For the drive-bys, Grosskreutz is still an innocent victim, and they focused on his proven lies to make that point:
New York Times: "Man Shot by Kyle Rittenhouse Describes the Encounter on a Kenosha Street"
Washington Post: "Gaige Grosskreutz says he feared for his life, pointed gun at Kyle Rittenhouse before getting shot"
CNN: "Armed paramedic who was shot by Kyle Rittenhouse testifies he thought teen was an active shooter"
USA Today: "Gaige Grosskreutz testified 'That I was going to die' as a witness at Rittenhouse trial"
BBC: "Man shot by Kyle Rittenhouse says he pointed own gun amid fears for life."
Meanwhile, after Tuesday's hearing, MSNBC ran the ominous headline that "A movement formed around Kyle Rittenhouse. It's a serious threat to democracy and justice." Apparently, the trial isn't about Kyle at all. "What's really on trial...is citizen vigilantism." Destroying cities, good. Defending cities, vigilantism.
As I often do, I'll give Tucker Carlson the final word about this bizarre trial:
