Kyle Rittenhouse’s trial should have come to an end. Today, however, was yet another day of humiliation for the prosecution. Multiple times, Rittenhouse had to be criticized by the judge for not following protocol. Rittenhouse’s questioning turned into a complete circus that included blame games and confusions about bullets.
A fair person would have understood that Rittenhouse probably acted in self defense and should have been able to walk away. At the very least, there is no reason for anyone to still be confidently asserting he’s guilty because as evidence goes, it’s been about as one-sided as things get in the defense’s favor. However, the left isn’t full of fair-minded people. Democrats instead are ready to send a teenage boy to prison for refusing to allow himself to die by a skateboard.
Enter Hakeem Jeffries, Chair of the House Democrat Caucus, with one of the most disgusting takes I’ve ever seen from a politician.
Kyle Rittenhouse should be locked up and the key should be thrown away

Someone who has been through countless days of self-defense proceedings will be able to make such an opinion. It is clear that Jeffries is not concerned about Rittenhouse’s guilt or innocence. He cares more that Rittenhouse is something against his political beliefs. Whether that’s the Second Amendment issue that is at play, that fact that Rittenhouse was opposing the Black Lives Matter rioters that night, or something else, Jeffries would see someone’s entire life ended to validate his own worldview, even if no law was broken.
That’s not only sick, it’s tyrannical and scary. It’s the kind of thing you’d expect to see from a Soviet-era politician. And to be sure, Jeffries is showing everyone that he’d gladly throw anyone who disagrees with him in a gulag if he had the power to do so. That he doesn’t have that power currently is just an inconvenience for someone like him.
You’ll also be less than shocked to learn that Jeffries is a massive hypocrite. While he’s called for an end to “mass incarceration” and the prison system in the past, he’s suddenly all about locking Rittenhouse up forever for the grave sin of not letting a man bash his skull in.

I usually try to avoid sounding dramatic. But Republicans must take this serious and be aware of the consequences for the country’s political system. The Democrats have a dangerous rhetorical style and are not willing to tolerate people who don’t agree with their ideas. They don’t even care what the Constitution means to them. Furthermore, these people don’t bother to disguise their disgust for the rule of laws.
More power means that the country will likely continue on a dangerous path. It is important to put Democrats in the place of Republicans in 2022. This applies not only for Republicans but also for the nation as a whole. Jeffries should be ashamed of himself, though I’m sure he lacks the ability to feel such.
