KYLE RITTENHOUSE: THE MURDERER CRIES VICTIM


 The first time I became aware of 17-year-old Rittenhouse was when I watched in horror as he killed two people during a racial protest in Kenosha, Wisconsin. Shockingly, after committing the homicide he walked right up to police, with his automatic weapon across his chest, saying he just killed to people. The police waved him away. My first thought was if a black man had walked up to the police with an AR15, he would have been shot. 

But the details were even more horrifying. He did not even live in Wisconsin but saw the protests on TV in his Illinois home he shared with his mother. He bragged to his teenage friends that he bought the weapon with his economic stimulus check. His mother gave him the support to do this. Rittenhouse claims he went to Kenosha to help protect business owners' property. Only two people were killed during these demonstrations-both by Kyle Rittenhouse.

Yesterday, Rittenhouse did a command performance tearfully testifying that his shootings were self-defense. Sociopaths excel at imitating real emotions. Never mind that the underage out of state boy should not have been there in the first place and he should have never been able to purchase, let alone fire, an automatic weapon. 

He is the new right-wing hero. Money has poured into his criminal defense fund from Trump proponents, Q-Anon fanatics, and the white-only fringe groups. Rittenhouse is the altruistic poster child for vigilante justice. No doubt this will start a new chapter in gun violence: the deludedly dedicated vigilante who takes matters into his own hands, then claims self-dense.  

The old white judge presiding over his case appallingly would not allow Mr. Rittenhouse's murdered persons to be described as victims, only as rioters or looters. So, this is the message I get from Wisconsin law: if you are an angry, white underage boy, you can purchase an automatic weapon, go to another state, and arbitrarily decide which protesters you can kill because you are supposedly protecting any community. What's next, murder vacations?

P.S. The verdict is in: it's okay to be an underaged white male and kill people. Your future looks bright interning for the GOP.

TIME TO LEAVE

 


When do politically astute people know when it's time to leave?

1. Almost always after inciting a deadly insurgency.

2. Seeing their ardent supporters in federal and state legislatures get warnings of expulsion and/or expelled from their jobs. 

3. When you are deleted permanently from social media.

4. Watching their powerful allies in Congress abandon all hope of a 'winning' spin or a rescue.

5. When your faithful, loyally-blind vice-president is so pissed off that he won't even talk to you for endangering his life.

6. When said vice-president can dangle the 25th Amendment to declare you unfit for office.

7. Seeing your ratings (the polls) plummet as the majority of the American people want you removed from office immediately.

8. Hearing your pathetic wife cry victim to a resounding backlash of 'shut the f**k up'.

9. Knowing not even crazy Giuliani or media whore lawyer Dershowitz can't save you.

10. Now that your name is a dirty word and you'll never recover politically from insurrection.

To All Republican Trump Apologists & Antifa Conspiracy Theorists

"No evidence has been found that members of the left-wing antifa movement were involved in this week’s storming of the Capitol building, the FBI said Friday, contradicting a narrative pushed by some Trump allies.

“We have no indication of that at this time,” Washington Field Office assistant director Steven D'Antuono said during a briefing when asked about any potential involvement of antifa." -The Hill

Wake up Republicans! If you continue to support Trump or feed the paranoid conspiracy that antifa was really responsible for his insurrection, you are playing a dangerous game with democracy. Time to take responsibility for years of reinforcing and fomenting the radical right dissent. You know, you've accused Democrats of this with the radical left. But it was your mob, under your president, under your watch. Like the violent mob who stormed the Capitol, you are aiding and abetting anarchists. 

If you don't believe me, read the definition of an anarchist. 'What does it mean to be a 'anarchist'? Definition of anarchist. 1 : a person who rebels against any authority, established order, or ruling power. 2 : a person who believes in, advocates, or promotes anarchism or anarchy especially : one who uses violent means to overthrow the established order.'  -Merriam Webster

By approving of Trump and/or refusing to believe his deranged Q-Anon, Proud Boys, right-wing nihilists, and White Supremacist followers caused this violent breach, you are siding with the same ideology used by dictators. As a nation, this seditious rhetoric has to be eradicated. That is why Trump was frozen out of social media along with several of his ardent followers. One of the most effective ways to quell this tyranny is by cutting it off by its vile social media head. 

The consequences of trying to thwart the impeachment of Trump will be viewed as complicit by those of us who have watched for the last four years of a president who is a Russian asset, has caged children, and has systematically supported the rampant abuse of civil rights.

Taking a stand also means confronting those who have espoused the Trump doctrine. A friend of mine who is a Republican, called me saying she was horrified by the storming of Capitol Hill. However, in the same breath she lamented, "It is so sad that people are not remembering the good things Trump has done." Astonished, I heatedly responded that Trump bears the chief responsibility for this historic violent attempt to overthrow the government and no one remembers the good Hitler did either. As a moderate Republican, I used to admire her middle-of-the-road perspective. Her denial, blind to the damage done by Trump and his GOP allies is shocking-I am not sure our friendship can survive this. 

Trump and his insulated followers have lost touch with reality. They are residing in what Pat Robertson referred to (Trump) as "living in an alternate reality." As a country, we need to send a strong message to all radicals whether they are on the right or left. And, especially for his apologist supporters. It starts with impeaching this president.

Dear Trump, You're Fired

 

Dear Mr. Trump,

While you're stewing in your rageaholic fantasies of revenge, here are some calming thoughts to help you in your moment of unbridled despair:

-Pat Robertson is praying for you no matter which alternate universe is your permanent residence.

-Haldol can help with those hyper, fury-fueled fits.

-Think of yourself as successfully being impeached again. You're the winner of Q-Anon's most popular impeached president.

-At least Rudy and Don Jr. can be your jailhouse pen pals.

-Don't worry about all those so-called loyalists fleeing your sinking ship. Mike Pence will find them a new job.

-When the tear gas exploded on Capitol Hill, your message to wear masks finally was heard by your constituents.

-Don't worry about being homeless and jobless. Putin, Maduro, & Erdogan will take care of you.

-Even though Melania's 'Be Best' campaign was an utter failure, and she never made a major fashion cover during your presidency, you both can be featured on 'White Supremacy Weekly'.

-Now that the taxpayers & the RNC will no longer be paying for your lawsuits, golf, & pork, you can proudly claim to your supporters that you weaned yourself off of welfare.

-Since you've resumed the federal death penalty, death by firing squad for treason means you don't have to pardon yourself.

New Brooms Sweep Dirt

 They say new brooms sweep clean or so I've heard. What dirt is our soon to be president sweeping into this New Year?

1. Committing, convicting, I mean pardoning more criminals, sorry, I mean 'American patriots'.

2. Plotting the 'Night of the Long Knives' American-style.

3. Gearing up for the Proud Boys parade.

4. Spouting bad presidential mathematics.

5. Taking your niece Mary's advice by going into treatment to deal with suicidal ego loss & a self-destructive rage spiral.
