Rittenhouse Day One /1
I spent the day watching the 1st day of Rittenhouse Trial on YouTube.
It’s like no trial I’ve ever seen.
The gun culture of Wisconsin is like another world to me.
The state’s right to a fair trial is abrogated as much as it is in GA’s Arbery trial.
Rittenhouse Day One /2

I never used to worry about the prosecution’s rights. I guess White Supremacy will do that when things are flipped.
The Rules of Evidence seem to be made up as you go in WI. Speculation by witnesses is invited and then implored.
Rittenhouse Day One /3

Bizarre elements plague the prosecution presentation.
A key witness in the Rosenberg case is a professional news videographer. He’s composed, organized &articulate.
But, you have to factor in—
He was on the job for Tucker Carlson. And—apparently still is.

The Coup Continues /3

Major General Smedley Butler, one of the most decorated war heroes of his time. Even more unbelievable were his claims of who was involved in the plot – respected names like Robert Sterling Clark, Grayson M.P. Murphy, and Prescott Bush.

Fascism is: "A system of government that exercises a dictatorship of the extreme right, typically through the merging of state and business leadership, together with belligerent nationalism."
