If he were Muslim, the guy who pulled the gun on him unprovoked would have been arrested, and Rittenhouse would be walking around free
And that would be correct!
In the modern progressive mind, self-defense is available to individuals who 1) reasonably fear that they are facing imminent bodily harm and 2) are not young white men
The charges against Kyle Rittenhouse should have been dropped months ago

That they have not been is hard to explain without racism

I’ve been reading a lot about the Battle of Midway

There are lessons in there for us in the mistakes the Japanese made
Let’s fast-forward to roughly noon on the day of the battle

At this point the Japanese have lost 3 of their four carriers, a hugely damaging blow

They have one left, the Hiryu
The Hiryu launched a counter-strike against the Americans with its strike force (which ended up hitting the American carrier Yorktown)

At that point Hiryu needed to beat a strategic retreat - because the second American carrier strike force would overwhelm its combat air patrol

Why would Hillary rig the primary and then play fair in the general
If Hillary could rig voting machines without being caught she would be President right now
We call this “proving too much”

Being "loyal to principle," properly understood, is disloyalty

You can be loyal to another human being, another group of human beings, or an institution

When you elevate an abstract principle above the human beings in your circle of care you are being *disloyal*
"I'm loyal to free market ideology which is why I'm fine seeing my fellow Americans' jobs shipped overseas."

Doesn't work that way
This is the basic #NeverTrump mistake

They betrayed their voters and supporters because they were "loyal to their principles."

That's *disloyalty*

There's a goalpost move going on

From "no evidence of election fraud" to "no evidence of *widespread* election fraud"

"Widespread" is doing a ton of work in these formulations, in two different ways

Thread
First, there's no agreed-upon definition of "widespread," which allows the user to ignore any and all evidence of voter fraud by saying it doesn't meet their arbitrary threshold of being "widespread"
For example - the Trump campaign alleges ~675k ballots were opened without conservative poll watchers present

Is that enough ballots to be "widespread?"

How many poll watchers need to be wrongfully barred from observing voting/counting before it's "widespread?"

The answer is pho and it’s not close
In college and for a couple years after I ate pho 5-7 times a week

So simple, so reliably good
Seems a lot of people are disagreeing with me

It's time to turn Durham into a special counsel

And open up two additional new special counsel investigations:

- Special Counsel to investigate money laundering/tax fraud by the Bidens related to Burisma and the China deals

- Special Counsel to investigate 2020 election fraud
All these Special Counsel investigations should be staffed at least 90% by people who donated to President Trump

Because under the Mueller standard, it's preposterous to think that biases the legal judgment of the lawyers involved
*IF* Biden wins, his DOJ appointees should be forced to swear under oath that they will not interfere in the special counsel investigations in order to be confirmed

We control the Senate, after all, and Trump let the Mueller investigation be completed
