Michael Ramirez for November 17, 2021

Congress can do most anything except tell the truth.

They spent most their years studying for this life of the forked tongue. They are most qualified in the subject of lying.

The prosecutors did an excellent job trying a dumbass kid who who brought an AR15 loaded with full metal jacketed rounds and body armor on a first aid run. Interesting that the only people that died that night were by Rittenhouse’s hand and the last thing he did in Kenosha was actually help someone. He’s guilty. He should go to prison but what he really needs is help. He’ll get none whether he’s convicted or not.

So Kyle shoots an unarmed man, shattering his pelvis and while he’s on the ground, shoots him in the back to finish him off…. because a man that’s unarmed with a shattered pelvis is still a threat…

There will be more punks like this one if he, and the guys in Georgia don’t go to prison.

Any fool can be a U.S. Senator, or President, or Judge.

Another great ’toon, Mike!

Old joke:

What do you call a lawyer with an I.Q. of 50?

Your honor

Where’s Pacino when you need him. ""You’re out of order! You’re out of order! The whole trial is out of order!"

And what justice will the judge face in this case after blatantly stumping for the murderer? Disbarment? Jail? Or more likely a position higher up, such as a republican senator or Fox News “expert”.

…could they convict the judge?

James 2:24

HOW Dare they enforce laws against a cute little white kid.

The Judge has already destroyed the State’s chance to get a “Fair Trial” by allowing the description of" Looters and Rioters" to be used without convictions against the Victims who are not allowed to be called Victims.

I do not know what the jury will find. It should be a clean acquittal, but BLM and Antifa are threatening to doxx and trying to intimidate the jury. A few questions about Kyle: 1) did his father live in Kenosha? 2) his aunt? 3) did he work in Kenosha? (Hint: yes to all three). 4) did he shoot anyone not assaulting him? 5) did he approach any hostile situation without a medical bag and yelling “friendly”? 6) was he a pedophile, convicted felon, or psychotic, as those who assaulted him were? 7) did he transport an AR-15 across state lines (Hint: no to all four). If you do not know the answer to 1-7, you are watching left wing charlatans, not news.

All of you would convict or not not convict based on your personal observations and I suppose each of you would yield your outcome in a similar situation to a bunch of commenters here instead of a Jury of Your Peers. Let the jury decide and live with it. It is what the constitution offers each of us.

The prosecutors have gotten their asses kicked by the defense. I can’t believe those two lead morons are the best that Kenosha DA has in the stable. Where’d they work before? Dewey Cheatum & Howe?

As a Canadian.. kind of confused. Does this boil down to.. say for example; two folk sitting at a table are having an argument, say about which president was the dumbest. It gets heated, one gets up.. Can this be construed as a threat and it’s fine to shoot her?

Why would the prosecutors be on trail? Doesn’t Mr. Ramierez believe in law and order?

Between the prosecutors and the judge being so terrible, there should be a mistrial.

Anyone who willingly goes to a place that is likely to be dangerous is likely to get involved in the danger. Anyone who carries a weapon to a place that is likely to be dangerous is looking for trouble, and in most instances will find it.

His pre-shooting videos with him posing with a gun reminded me of the image from South Park where Mr. Garrison poses in front of a three-way mirror with a gun, asking “Are you talking to me? Are you talking to me?”

He decided it was his duty to protect a building he had no interest in or knowledge about, deputizing himself as a noble vigilante. What could possibly go wrong?

Only in America: justice as entertainment.

That skank right wing judge is crazy.

A 17 year old kid carries a gun to a riot. The police encourage him. Give him a bottle of water:

This is not an example of good policing. Kyle Rittenhouse is not the only one who should be on trial. In particular, the training that our law enforcement professionals is in need of deep examination and reform.

The Arizona man known as the “QAnon Shaman” will serve 41 months in prison after storming the Capitol on Jan. 6, a federal judge ruled Wednesday.

Federal prosecutors had asked that Jacob Chansley, who pleaded guilty in September to a single count of felony obstruction of an official proceeding, serve 51 months followed by three years of supervised release. They also asked that he pay $2,000 in restitution.

In case you missed the latest news, which remains mostly unreported, the defense filed a mistrial with prejudice motion. Not unusual, but the content in this one is catastrophic.

The prosecution used video evidence during the trial it had not disclosed or turned over to the defense. It came to light during day 5. Prosecution claims they just got it, an unlikely statement given the 14 month since the events in question.

Upon demands from the defense, prosecutors handed over a copy of the video.

Fast forward to Monday. After the closing arguments, after the introduction of evidence was closed, it was discovered that the prosecution had given the defense a grainy low resolution copy of the video when In fact the prosecution was in possession of a hi-res copy, with roughly 300% greater size and resolution.

Once again the defense demanded a copy, and upon review discovered that the hi-res copy included footage that showed a prosecution assertion to be a lie. Part of the prosecution effort to paint Rittenhouse as irresponsible and dangerous was the claim that he pointed his rifle at the Ziminski’s. The hi-res video shows this claim is false.

This is just one more egregious violation of basic law by the prosecution in this case. Between this and the attempts to introduce lines of questioning already prohibited by the Judge, the prosecutors have fatally injured their case. This last bit with the video approaches a criminal offense.

Regardless of your opinion on the events and the trial, these gross abuses by the prosecution should cause ALL persons following this trial to be deeply alarmed. This is still America, and even those we despise are entitled to a FAIR trial.

I think the judge is more likely to be the one convicted. Whatta nutjob!

Anyone for a lottery?

More on the drone video. Listening to the live feed between the judge and the attorneys and staff.

Prosecution claims that they have no idea or responsibility for the size and quality of the video file in the hands of the defense. They are claiming that the defense recipient smartphone compressed the video without warning to the recipient. Defense calls bullshit.

Defense went to the prosecution office on Saturday to pick up a copy of the file on a thumb drive. The file supplied by the prosecution has the original file name created by the drone camera. It is 11 MB. The file sent to the defense via email 2 weeks ago is 3 MB and has a different name, apparently renamed by someone in the prosecution office.

The prosecutor claims he has no idea how such a thing could be and that no one made any changes in his office, despite the undeniable fact that the file name in his original email is not the file name on the larger file they (prosecution) supplied on Saturday and the file size is dramatically smaller. He is arguing that the fault all lies with the defense recipient smart phone.

Logic tells us the prosecution is lying. Technology pretty much tells the same story. At this point it is my opinion that the Judge should demand that the sending device used by the prosecution be handed over for a forensic examination. It should be very easy to verify the outgoing email message in the “sent” folder.

So, I found out from the news what this was all about, and it is typical of the state to rig a trial in their favor.

However, that judge feels that HE can convict the prosecutors…

You folks would be amusing if this topic was not so deadly serious.

Calls for Rittenhouse to be convicted, the railing against the judge and your failure to condemn the prosecution for egregious deliberate violations of trial procedure and defendant rights.

All of these things demonstrate that you either have no respect for equal justice under the law or are completely ignorant of the law.

The prosecution withheld exculpatory evidence from the defense. That alone should draws cries of anger from ALL citizens of this nation. That alone is the basis for a mistrial with prejudice. In pretty much ANY criminal case.

All of you who allow your politics to override the basics we were all taught about our justice system are just despicable.

This gets better and better and better.

The prosecution claims they have no idea how the video file got compressed AND that they have no idea how to even perform such a magical task.

Sharp eyed viewers spotted a file directory for “Handbrake” on ADA Krause’s laptop screen. This from the live camera feeds on PBS of all places.

Handbrake is….gasp….a video compression application.

Of all the blubbering BS, he took an illegal firearm to a riot so he’d have the opportunity to shoot someone, premeditated deadly intent, no question.

It’s the judge who should be prosecuted.

I thought it was gonna be the judge. Agree with baroden. Oh…if a 17 year old person of color had come into Kenosha with an AR15 and killed two and injured one…I don’t think they would have made it out alive and made into a hero by the “defending our community” crowd.

Lady Justice is watching.
