They’re So Wrapped up in the Narrative, They Can’t Even Remember the Facts

It is completely embarrassing for the Chairman of the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee (DCCC) to get this wrong.

Maloney issued a statement yesterday afternoon in which he said that it is “disgusting and disturbing that someone was able to carry a loaded assault rifle into a protest against the unjust killing of Jacob Blake, an unarmed Black man, and take the lives of two people and injure another – and face absolutely no consequences.”

Two problems:

  1. Jacob Blake was not unarmed
  2. There was no “unjust killing”, because Jacob Blake, is, in fact, not dead.

You pushed this narrative. You encouraged the riots. And you don’t even have your basic facts straight. A riot to protest the “unjust killing” of someone who is alive.

And yet, Twitter and Facebook are all over it, every time someone on the right misspells a word.

The narrative trumps everything. This has gone on long enough. We have to start making the left pay for their lies.

If There’s Any Justice, He’ll Be Cleared of All Charges and Then Win Huge Lawsuits for Defamation and False Imprisonment

Judge Rules There’s No Proof Rittenhouse Is Tied To Far Right Groups | The Daily Caller

But one step at a time, I guess.

The judge presiding over Kyle Rittenhouse’s trial has ruled that prosecutors are not allowed to allege that Rittenhouse is affiliated with any far-right groups, or that he had attacked a woman months before the shooting.

Rittenhouse, who is facing trial on Nov. 1, is facing multiple counts, including homicide for the shooting of three people. Rittenhouse alleges that he was acting in self-defense after being attacked during the riot over the police shooting of Jacob Blake.

“Guilt by association” is a sleazy tactic, even in a case like this. And attorneys usually get more sleazy as they get more desperate.
