00:00:05.000Kyle Rittenhouse taking the stand in his own defense is a very strange development.
00:00:10.000Meanwhile, the jury is being threatened, just so you know.
00:00:14.000The jury is being threatened in this case, and many people will probably give a ruling on the jury that they might not even believe to try to prevent future violence from happening in Kenosha.
00:00:24.000But don't worry, the Department of Justice, they're on the case.
00:00:27.000They're trying to find a missing diary that would constitute petty theft.
00:00:31.000If you want to come to AmericaFest, everybody, tpusa.com/slash A-M-F-E-S-T.
00:00:36.000We have Tucker Carlson, Candace Owens, Kaylee McEnany, Donald Trump Jr., Ted Cruz, Rand Paul, and Moore.
00:01:15.000We will not embrace the ideas that have destroyed countries, destroyed lives, and we are going to fight for freedom on campuses across the country.
00:01:57.000I have a whole stack of papers to get to.
00:02:01.000I could tell you, we're going to talk about snitches.
00:02:05.000We're going to talk about how school board members in Scottsdale, Arizona have spying files on you.
00:02:10.000Some of these things are going to have to wait till tomorrow.
00:02:12.000How they're getting rid of Ds and Fs, how Pfizer COVID jab trials falsify data.
00:02:18.000I mean, we got a lot of stories to get to, but I want to recap the Rittenhouse stuff happening in real time because look, this Rittenhouse situation is a lot bigger than just Kyle Rittenhouse.
00:02:28.000Now, why Kyle Rittenhouse decided to testify, I might be proven wrong here.
00:02:32.000I'm by no means a legal expert, but I know that it's usually not wise to take the stand in your own defense.
00:04:18.000It's ridiculous how we have to put up with this charade for a couple years.
00:04:22.000And meanwhile, his nephew is threatening jurors in Kenosha.
00:04:28.000What I want to just say, though, that there is an unexpected hero, and that is the judge, Bruce Schroeder.
00:04:36.000He is a true Wisconsinite, and he is pushing back against this aggressive prosecution that is unfairly trying to frame the case into something that it isn't.
00:06:03.000The judge continues by saying, the prosecution, this is not permitted.
00:06:08.000This judge is how every judge in the country needs to be about standing up for the rule of law, standing up for due process, standing up for the Constitution.
00:06:55.000Let me ask the jury to come in, please.
00:06:56.000This judge dismissed the jury twice to scold the prosecution for crossing constitutional barriers and limits regarding Kyle Rittenhouse's waiving of his Fifth Amendment rights and also the line of questioning and not submitting basically the topics or the subjects that he was going to cross-examine Kyle Rittenhouse with.
00:07:21.000So let's play some of Kyle Rittenhouse's testimony.
00:08:06.000The defense's bet is that in today's America, this decision, this case was not going to be decided on technical law.
00:08:16.000That instead, they need to win over one juror that says they don't want to put the young man, Kyle Rittenhouse, who is largely clueless around types of ammo and places and locations in jail.
00:08:27.000I believe that was the defense's thinking.
00:09:54.000This all seems, as it's developing from the defense, is that they put a risk that they were winning the case on the merits and on the technical side.
00:10:10.000But what they needed to do is to try to show the jury that Kyle Rittenhouse is not some sort of bitter, vengeful, sociopathic person who enjoys trying to kill.
00:12:21.000Kyle Rittenhouse is on trial, and it's becoming the number one news story in the country, largely because of this judge and the fact that Kyle took the stand.
00:12:32.000It's a risk, but just kind of looking at the tea leaves, all they have to do, the Kyle Rittenhouse team, is win over one juror.
00:12:40.000They have to win over one juror that will not be able to live with themselves for locking up Kyle Rittenhouse and putting him in jail.
00:12:47.000Let's go to cut 44, which was not covered in the activist press.
00:12:54.000Now, mind you, the drive-bys, the CNN, and MSNBC and all the major news outlets, they did not cover the Rittenhouse trial nearly at all until today.
00:13:01.000As soon as Kyle Rittenhouse took the stand, they pounced.
00:13:05.000And they also got introduced to this judge who has been admonishing the prosecution.
00:13:11.000And you can kind of tell this judge is really fed up with what's going on.
00:13:15.000And that's what a judge is supposed to do.
00:13:17.000A judge is supposed to use practical judgment, prudence, and wisdom, wearing his black cloak, hopefully to have no bias and no prejudice.
00:13:26.000Look at the merits of the case and say, wait a second, you can indict a hand sandwich.
00:13:39.000That's what a judge is supposed to do.
00:13:42.000A judge is not supposed to be a rubber stamp or a yes man for the state or the prosecution.
00:13:48.000This is an important thing that we talked about the other day as far as how our justice system is designed: is that prosecutors are supposed to be independent of judges and vice versa.
00:13:59.000Judges are supposed to be the balance between the citizens, people that are going to be put on trial, and the prosecution, the people that do the trials, the state, the government, versus the people.
00:14:11.000And what we see in the Kyle Rittenhouse drama, make no mistake, if Kyle Rittenhouse would have been a BLM Incorporated activist, and if he would have shot a Trump supporter outside of a Trump rally, that none of this would be an issue.
00:14:27.000And you know what's my justification for that?
00:14:30.000Can someone possibly explain to me why Lieutenant Michael Bird got off for shooting Ashley Babbitt, but Kyle Rittenhouse has to go through this entire saga for shooting a child rapist and an Antifa person trying to kill them.
00:14:50.000So Ashley Babbitt is allowed to get slaughtered in the Capitol building by a black police officer, whatever he is, Capitol Police Officer, bang, right to the head, unarmed.
00:15:01.000But Kyle Rittenhouse has a gun pointed at him, and he has to go through this entire saga as if he's a mass murdering white supremacist.
00:15:40.000A Capitol police officer is allowed to kill a Trump-supporting veteran white woman, Ashley Babbitt, at the Capitol, allowed to put a bullet in her head.
00:15:50.000But Kyle Rittenhouse is not allowed to defend himself against BLM Incorporated Antifa child rapists.
00:15:57.000One of them wasn't a legitimate sexual assaulting child rapist who tried to kill him and trying to use deadly force against him when this guy had a gun pointed at him.
00:16:08.000The judge understands that what's really happening here, and he's not saying this out loud and he would deny it if asked, what we are seeing happen in, is this Kenosha County?
00:16:20.000I grew up in northern Illinois, so I've been to Kenosha hundreds of times.
00:16:24.000That what's happening in Kenosha County, what's happening in Wisconsin with this trial, is a question of the equal application of law.
00:16:34.000Remember, James Madison famously said that the day the laws become so voluminous that people do not know them or how to follow them, it becomes a tyranny because it's then who gets to enforce them.
00:16:45.000Cicero, the one-year Roman council, brilliant, said the more laws, the less justice.
00:17:00.000The judge is getting increasingly animated on mostly technical things, but I think it's pent-up frustration and anger because this judge did not get into this line of work to be lectured by some metropolitan left-wing socialist, Marxist, deconstructionist, anti-constitutional, BLM-sympathizing prosecutor about what the rule of law is.
00:17:25.000Rittenhouse did not fire his weapon until he was at direct danger, when he was experiencing direct danger.
00:17:36.000And make no mistake, what's really going on here is the same thing that happened with the McCloskeys.
00:17:42.000They cannot get rid of guns, so they're going to make it illegal to use your guns.

00:18:45.000What you see playing out in the Kyle Rittenhouse trial is kind of this collision of different generations, viewpoints, and perspectives and classes all kind of fencing and jousting for their own preferred America that they want to live in.
00:19:01.000So you have three separate actors that are happening right now, and you have three different kind of symbols that you could put forward.
00:19:08.000First, you have Kyle, who represents the muscular class.
00:19:12.000And to be put it very bluntly, he represents young white men trying to find a place in this world.
00:19:18.000And we've talked about this for quite some time, that there's an attack on men that, not to mention the story we mentioned we noticed yesterday, where you can't even be hired by State Street Capitol advisors as a white person without proper approval.
00:19:32.000You can't hire white people without approval at State Street.
00:19:37.000And so Kyle Rittenhouse is kind of a participant.
00:20:16.000Save me the kind of long moralizing while we had to go watch Wendy's be burned down and $3 billion of damages and many of the rioters never actually having to be put on trial.
00:20:33.000I have a soft spot for Kyle because I grew up with people just like Kyle that talk like Kyle, the same sort of accent, that view the world the same way as Kyle.
00:20:44.000And I will say that the verdict will see, but if he ends up getting acquitted, putting him on trial, I think that a lot of people on that jury said, huh, I have a son just like him.
00:20:57.000A little bit clueless, a little bit, what's the word I'm looking for, Connor?
00:21:23.000This is during some of the most, the harshest, unconstitutional and immoral lockdowns that were all across the Midwest.
00:21:32.000Illinois and Wisconsin were largely locked down.
00:21:35.000And don't worry, if you were a young Black Lives Matter activist, you were allowed to pillage and plunder, throw Molotov cocktails.
00:21:42.000But if you wanted to be a young white male, and by the way, you know why he was there, and the prosecution was laying this out.
00:21:51.000He was there to administer medical support, gauze pads, emergency medical kits.
00:21:58.000So in the first category, you have Kyle Rittenhouse, muscular class, young white male, which obviously our society is increasingly hostile towards young white men.
00:22:14.000AT ⁇ T tells us we have to get rid of whiteness.
00:22:16.000In the second category, and the most obvious category, and the least surprising, is the self-hating prosecution, is the college-educated, arrogant, smug, deceitful, elitist, treacherous, double-minded type of prosecution that is kind of like, you know who the prosecution reminds me of.
00:24:03.000This was an issue because of the person who should be on trial, which is the governor of Wisconsin, Tony Evers, who did not deploy the National Guard, who did not bring in the police.
00:24:14.000If the police and the National Guard were doing their job, Kyle Rittenhouse would have showed up with a gun and they would have said, son, go home.
00:24:42.000He didn't go and start hunting people in the streets.
00:24:45.000He did not shoot until he was hunted down.
00:24:49.000So there you have the first category, the muscular class, Kyle Rittenhouse, young white male that society is told to hate, and it's increasingly hostile towards.
00:24:57.000Then you have the prosecution, typical college-educated, smug, arrogant.
00:25:02.000But then is the interesting third category, which we did not expect, right?
00:25:07.000We expected the two worldviews colliding.
00:25:11.000But then now you have this third actor, which is exactly why the country is in the garbage it's in, because this third actor has been so MIA.
00:25:20.000The third actor is a common sense, non-radical Democrat.
00:25:26.000It's a common sense, non-radical Democrat.
00:25:58.000He has a brewer's logo right behind him.
00:26:04.000And this judge is not going to put up with a belligerent and aggressive prosecution that gets to go lock up Kyle Rittenhouse because he satisfies some sort of identity politics villain box.
00:26:14.000Remember, Joe Biden tweeted out, this is a white supremacist.
00:26:17.000There is zero evidence at all whatsoever that Kyle Rittenhouse is a white supremacist, except the fact that he's a white person that carried a gun and had his hat backwards.
00:26:25.000And that filled the sort of archetype of what Joy Reed and Robin D'Angelo and Ibram X. Kendi think a white supremacist is, is someone who wears their hat backwards and is white from the Midwest and carries a gun around.
00:26:47.000You put this picture up, and this is the same reason, everybody, that we are all living through a manufactured simulation.
00:26:53.000The simulation is that because of social media and because of the forms of how our mind actually works going all the way back to Plato, we actually don't do much critical thinking anymore.
00:27:04.000Now, let me connect three different things together.
00:27:07.000The same stereotyping we see with Kyle Rittenhouse, and just put this picture up, because some people saw this picture, like, oh, he's up to no good, because you have been trained, you have been conditioned to believe, oh, white man with his mouth open, AR-15, kind of a fatigue-looking uniform, right up on the live stream.
00:27:51.000Kyle Rittenhouse is the Covington kid trial that never happened.
00:27:58.000The Covington kid trial with the maniac that banged the drum in Nicholas Sandman's face, and they wanted to put him in jail because he was a pro-lifer on the steps of the Lincoln Memorial with a maniac banging the drum in his face, wearing a MAGA hat, they wanted to put him in prison for that, effectively.
00:28:22.000Well, Kyle Rittenhouse fills that same sort of archetype.
00:28:51.000You're trying to tell me you want to now put people off of Border Patrol and in jail because it brings back some sort of unfounded ancestral memories?
00:30:30.000If Kyle Rittenhouse would have done what the black police officer did who killed Ashley Babbitt in cold blood, unarmed, no threat to his life, bang.
00:30:40.000And by the way, after Lieutenant Michael Byrd did that on January the 6th at the Capitol, he fled the scene.
00:30:47.000What kind of police officer flees the scene after you put a bullet in someone's head?
00:30:52.000Meanwhile, Kyle Rittenhouse, 17 years old, turned himself in.
00:31:01.000I want you to imagine over 100,000 Americans losing their jobs.
00:31:06.000You could stop imagining because it's a reality.
00:31:09.000Since 2015, over 100,000 independent farms and ranches in the United States have shut down.

00:33:46.000Also, thanks to the war on petroleum, it's harder than ever to make synthetic fertilizer.
00:33:52.000Okay, so to summarize all this together, what's happening in the Rittenhouse saga is the tyranny of double standards, the unequal application of the law, and treating one group of people differently for the same set of circumstances or even more incriminating set of circumstances than others.
00:34:13.000The McCloskeys are rich, white, property-owning, mansion-dwelling people in the suburbs of St. Louis.
00:34:20.000Therefore, we must put them in prison, even though they got pardoned, thank goodness.
00:34:25.000Kyle Rittenhouse is a white, gun-wielding hat-wearing, you know, wearing the hat backwards, which, oh, that must mean he's up to no good individual, and therefore he must be penalized or criminalized.
00:34:43.000And the threatening of jurors is the most interesting development here.
00:35:04.000I want you to imagine if any sort of person that was on trial for the left, if all of a sudden you had any figure on the right, say, yeah, you know, we got the pictures of all the jurors.
00:35:21.000This is such an upside-down set of circumstances that we're living in right now.
00:35:26.000Meanwhile, Twitter has suspended the Libertarian Party of Kentucky's Twitter account for saying that Kyle Rittenhouse did nothing wrong.
00:35:42.000And what is the priority of federal law enforcement?
00:35:46.000Federal law enforcement, run by Merrick Garland, is too busy issuing threats against moms and dads showing up to school board meetings across the country.
00:35:56.000And Merrick Garland has not yet rescinded his letter, even though the National School Board Association rescinded his letter that he said was the inspiration for that.
00:36:07.000Now, you'd think jury tampering would be a minor concern for the Department of Justice.
00:36:41.000And this is why this Kyle Rittenhouse saga is so incredibly important, everybody, is that if we just kind of sit idly by and don't comment on this and don't call it for what it is, then they can come and take guns from anyone.
00:36:58.000They can come and take firearms from any person.
00:37:02.000Kyle Rittenhouse, it is no longer about Kyle Rittenhouse.
00:37:06.000They are now going to make it not illegal to own guns because they lost that in the court in the Heller decision.
00:37:12.000No, they are going to make it illegal to use the guns.
00:37:16.000And better yet, if you're an Antifa left-wing person and you want to kill a Trump supporter, you will be given all the allowances the court and the criminal justice system has ahead of you.
00:37:25.000In Chicago, gangbangers in the light of day start killing each other.
00:37:29.000District Attorney Kim Fox lets them all out.
00:37:32.000James Monroe said the right of self-defense never ceases.
00:37:36.000It is among the most sacred and alike necessary to nations and individuals.
00:37:41.000They want to make you a criminal for defending yourself.
00:37:45.000They want to make it illegal for standing up against tyranny and anarchy.
