There is a group of accounts on @Twitter trying to affect the Kyle Rittenhouse Trial by spreading falsehoods about the sequence of events and what occurred.
I have included screenshots and video so you can determine it for yourself.
🧵 Thread

These accounts will say a guy chased him, threw something, & he shot him, but that is false. The first shooting was not self-defense
NOTE the guy who chased him threw a PLASTIC BAG likely because KR was running across a parking lot w a gun. KR never turns his weapon on him.
1/
1. Kyle runs across parking lot towards a group behind a few cars.
Person running after him is NOT who he shot.
HERE is the sequence of events.
Everyone can watch for themselves here.
__ 2/
2. Kyle shoots at a group that cannot be seen (he is also hidden behind some cars.)
Guy who chased after him is on the right.
KR NEVER points his gun at him so he never thought he was a threat.

3. Kyle Rittenhouse emerges from behind the cars.
Guy who chased him is administering to the guy KR is charged with shooting.

4. Guy down on ground (shot in the head) KR running away from the man down.
5. Man shot is down.
Man who chased KR (likely because he was running towards people w a gun) is administering aid.
Kyle Rittenhouse has run off at this point.

6. Kyle Rittenhouse is reported to have said
"I just shot somebody"

8. This is the man Kyle Rittenhouse shot.

7. He runs and they start to chase him in the street as he exits the parking lot (because people are yelling that he just shot someone and they need to stop him)

Kyle Rittenhouse's defense is that he shot people in self-defense, but it is very hard to see the first shooting video and believe this is true.
However, the disinformation accounts want you to think that he was attacked in the 1st shooting and he most certainly was not.
10/x
@AriMelber Great coverage today .... btw this was the first killing KR committed. Sure you have probably seen it, but most have not .. they only have seen what led up to the second one so they think he was acting in self-defense.

🔥Biden's medical exam from February.
OMG He is healthier than most of us.
"Height: 72 inches
Weight: 178 lbs
Body Mass Index (BMI): 24.1
Blood Pressure: 132/78
Pulse: 64
Respiratory Rate: 14
Temperature: 98.6 F
Pulse oximetry: 98%"
And the Neurological Exam found NOTHING.
So can we put this to bed and move forward?
He has the following issues.
+ Afib (controlled and asymptomatic)
+ Sleep Apnea w/ CPAP
+ Arthritis (Spine, Hip, and Foot He Broke)
+ Gastro Reflux
+ Neuropathy in the feet (No known cause)
That's about all of it.
_______________
✅ Summary.
"This patient's current medical considerations are detailed as above, and remain stable andwell-controlled. They include obstructive sleep apnea, a-fib with normal ventricular response, hyperlipidemia, gastroesophageal reflux, seasonal allergies, spinal arthritis and sensory peripheralneuropathy of the feet. For these, he takes three common prescription medications and threecommon over-the-counter medications.President Biden is a healthy, active, robust 81-year-old male, who remains fit to successfully execute the duties of the Presidency."
_______________
✅ "Height: 72 inches, Weight: 178 lbs, Body Mass Index (BMI): 24.1 Blood Pressure: 132/78, Pulse: 64, Respiratory Rate: 14, Temperature: 98.6 F, Pulse oximetry: 98%
"Physical exam is essentially unchanged from baseline.Head, ears, eyes, nose and throat are normal. He has no enlarged lymph nodes or goiter.Lungs are clear."
_______________
✅ It included a full neurological exam. Nothing found.
"An extremely detailed neurologic exam was again reassuring in that there were no findings whichwould be consistent with any cerebellar or other central neurological disorder, such as stroke,multiple sclerosis, Parkinson's or ascending lateral sclerosis, nor are there any signs of cervicalmyelopathy. This exam did again support a finding of peripheral neuropathy in both feet. No motorweakness was detected. He exhibits no tremor. either at rest or with activity. He demonstratesexcellent fine motor dexterity."
_______________
✅ The most significant issue he had is afib and that is asymptomatic.
_______________
✅ He also has arthritis in his spine, hip, and in the foot that he broke which is why he has a stiffer gait.
"A combination of significant spinal arthritis, post-fracture foot arthritis and a sensory peripheralneuropathy of the feet are the explanation for the subtle gait changes which I was investigating. Thisassessment is unchanged.• The President did note some increased left hip discomfort with activity recently. Clinical examwas normal except for decreased range of motion. Radiographs reveal mild arthritic changes. Thisis most certainly also contributing to his stiffened gait. No additional treatment is warranted, otherthan his ongoing physical therapy.
_______________
✅ He is also doing Physical Therapy.
"Physical Therapy and exercise prescription will continue to focus on general flexibility andproprioceptive maintenance maneuvers. These focus on lower extremity strengthening and corestability. We have added a more intensive stretching routine to the President's exerciseprescription. and he has been regularly participating in this program at least four to five times a week."
_______________
✅ And his cough and clearing throat issue are from gastroreflux.
"President Biden experiences occasional symptoms of gastroesophageal reflux, primarily having toclear his throat more often. This may also contribute to occasional cough and sinus congestion. Hissymptoms are typically exacerbated shortly after meals. This has been worked up extensivelyduring previous health assessments."
_______________
✅ And he has Sleep Apnea and uses a CPAP.
"Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA) effects over 30 million Americans and is readily treatedwith Positive Airway Pressure (PAP) as first line therapy. Most people do experience somedifficulties getting used to falling asleep while wearing a mask on their face, as well as with keepingit on throughout the night. This is reasonably anticipated and, in fact, should be expected. ThePresident had a very similar experience. But with trials of several different masks, we have beenable to identify a of couple products which fit him very comfortably and effectively. He has beenremarkably committed to sticking with therapy and uses PAP successfully almost every night. formost or all of the night.

🔺 NOTE these are the qualifications for the Doctors who did this series of assessments. including the Doctor who wrote this review.
"This physical has again included specialty consultation with several of our Presidential Specialty Consultants from the Walter ReedNational Military Medical Center. These specialties have included Optometry. Dentistry, Orthopedics (Foot and Ankle), Orthopedics (Spine), Physical Therapy, Neurology, Sleep Medicine,Cardiology, Radiology and Dermatology. Each of these specialists have independently reviewed thechart, examined the President, and concur with my findings and recommendations. I have alsosolicited feedback from my respected colleagues - the other physicians in the White House MedicalUnit, who see the patient every day. Each of these doctors has reviewed my report for accuracy.
My conclusions have been further informed through discussions with several of my fellow professorsfrom the George Washington University School of Medicine and Health Sciences."
@harryjsisson I watch you most days -- so appreciate what you and Parker and Chris do -- thought you would like this for a handy reference for your lives.
Please share this, or any tweet you see that has this report in it. We need everyone to see that they're no neurological issues. That's the end of the story. Should have been the end of the story before it began since the press has had this since February.
@verge Publications love to write daming articles based on affiliate marketing, which uses SEO Techniques, but is not the SEO Industry. I know most of the people in the article, some very well. This was a very bad take on a very narrow slice of what SEO is about and what we do.

@verge Let's talk about the real SEO industry of which affiliates are a part, but not the main part or even a majority part.
I was creating and coding websites in 2004 when I discovered SEO. I was looking for something new to get into ..

@verge I was trying to save my company on the 4 million a year they were spending on Google Clicks.
What made me fall in love with it was it was never boring. It was always new AND the people were so interesting. No one came to SEO via school. Everyone was self-taught and..

🟥🧵👇 When @TuckerCarlson releases his cherry picked vid this week to support a false narrative? Watch this video & remind yourself this was #Jan6th & when watching look for the long shot of the crowd trying to barrel through the doors.
And if that still leaves you unsure? Here's a playlist from YouTube from reporters & some on the ground videos made by peopJan6thle there -- to remind you of what really happened.
And if you need even more convincing, here's a well-organized video list from @propublica of many of the videos from Parler that were dropped that day -- mostly by people that were participating in the #insurrection.
🟥👇 How inciteful can rhetoric be? This is an anecdotal story of my night at a hotel this week.
A thread 🧵
I was getting a little bit of food at the bar -- it was late † and the guy sitting next to me started repeating propaganda stories from right wing media.

The first one he told me is the second largest terrorist attack in history the United States occurred in Las Vegas at Christmas.
I live in Las Vegas so I knew that wasn't true and I mentioned that probably wasn't accurate. (It wasn't.)
2/
A guy did run his car into the solar station that power is the MGM properties but there was no effect from that other than him burning up his car and causing some damage to the solar station.
Hardly massive
The guy was deemed mentally ill, so also not a terror attack.
