Rittenhouse Prosecutor Claims, Contrary to Law, That ‘You Lose the Right to Self-Defense When You’re the One Who Brought the Gun’; Jen Psaki Audibly Sighs After Reporter Complains About Kyle Rittenhouse Being Called ‘White Supremacist’ (VIDEO)

/0 Comments/in , , /by

By The Blaze. The lead prosecutor in the Kyle Rittenhouse trial made an extremely puzzling claim involving guns and self-defense during his closing arguments to the jury Monday afternoon. . .

In an obvious affront to the second amendment rights of all Americans, Kenosha County Assistant District Attorney Thomas Binger argued that the defendant, Kyle Rittenhouse, gave up his right to self-defense when he chose to bring a gun to the Black Lives Matter riots in the Wisconsin city last summer.

“You can’t claim self-defense against an unarmed man,” Binger stated before adding, “You lose the right to self-defense when you’re the one who brought the gun.” The law does not state, either in Wisconsin or elsewhere, that the self-defense can only be claimed against people who are armed with a gun.

Elsewhere he claimed, “You cannot claim self-defense against a danger you create. If you’re the one threatening others, you lose the right to claim self-defense,” according to Newsweek.

Prosecutor Thomas Binger Attacks Kyle Rittenhouse for Getting Choked Up While Testifying

By Breitbart. Thomas Binger — the lead prosecutor in the murder case against Kyle Rittenhouse — used the 18-year-old’s raw emotions on the witness stand last week as a knock against his character during closing arguments Monday.

“He showed no remorse for the victims, he never tried to help anyone that he hurt,” Binger, who serves as assistant district attorney in the Kenosha County District Attorney’s Office, said during closing arguments Monday. “Even on the witness stand — when he testified on Wednesday — he broke down crying about himself, not about anybody that he hurt that night.”

Cross, who is the author of Say It Louder! Black Voters, said Sunday on Cross Connection that she is worried because her brother is a truck driver . She said it “feels like a dangerous industry.”

Cross questioned her guest, CrossCountry Truck Driving School owner and president Pamela Day, about how the industry can become more “welcoming” to drivers of color. . .

“This is an industry populated by a lot of white men over the age of 55,” Cross said. “This group of people overwhelmingly voted for Trump. Some people have talked about aggressive truck drivers cutting them off or not being helpful.” (Read more from “MSNBC Host: Trucking Industry Full of ‘Aggressive’ White Men Who ‘Overwhelmingly Voted for Trump’ (VIDEO)” HERE)

Scientists Say Groundbreaking New Gel Treatment Reverses Paralysis in Mice as Researchers Prepare to Request FDA Approval for Human Trials (VIDEO)

/0 Comments/in , /by

Researchers say that a brand-new treatment has cured mice of paralysis after just four weeks of treatment, according to a release from Northwestern Now.

Citing scientific findings — which were published in journal Science on Thursday — researchers at Northwestern University stated that new injectable gel therapy is allowing previously paralyzed mice to walk again.

Scientists say that the groundbreaking gel, which is said to use synthetic nanofibers in order to mimic the natural environment around the spinal cord, is able to communicate with organic cells to promote regeneration.

A press release from Northwestern Now states, “Researchers found that intensifying the motion of molecules within the nanofibers led to greatly improved repair after injury.”

“Cell receptors are in constant motion, so rapidly moving ‘dancing molecules’ can more effectively hit these moving targets,” the release continued. “In an animal study, the therapy successfully regenerated axons of the cord’s neurons, reduced scar tissue, promoted myelin growth, triggered blood vessel formation, and helped motor neurons survive.”

Unearthed Videos: Biden Treasury Nominee Says She Wants to ‘Bankrupt,’ ‘Starve’ the Oil and Gas Industry to Save the Climate

/0 Comments/in , /by

In a pair of recently unearthed videos posted online, President Joe Biden’s nominee for a key Treasury Department role admitted that she wants to “starve” and “bankrupt” oil and gas firms in order to save the climate.

Saule Omarova — Biden’s nominee to lead the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency — already faces an uphill climb toward confirmation in lieu of a Marxist paper she wrote in college and past support for radical, progressive initiatives such as the National Investment Authority proposal, the Washington Free Beacon reported.

Now her resurfaced comments about bankrupting the fossil fuel industry may only further complicate her prospects.

COVID Isn’t the Only Virus Where Fauci Gave the Public Bad Advice

/0 Comments/in , /by

. . .[T]here’s no way this is his first time being an MVP candidate in being totally wrong about—everything. So, we have this clip of Fauci fearmongering about AIDS where his imperial majesty said that you could catch AIDS just by “casual contact.” So, AIDS spreads like the flu? Is that what we are to take from young Fauci here?

Yeah, talk about being dead wrong. He was wrong about the Wuhan grants. He was wrong about masks. And he did an ace job destroying the credibility of the vaccines by acting as if they don’t work. Get the vaccine but remain in lockdown. Doc, you don’t see where people would have questions with this especially since vaccinations have been a controversial topic since…forever.

Lawmakers Demand U.S. Punish Country for Criminalizing Christianity as a ‘Hate Crime’ (VIDEO)

/0 Comments/in , , /by

Six Republican U.S. representatives Wednesday issued a letter demanding that the United States take action against Finland for criminalizing Christianity through its hate crimes laws.

Prosecutors in Finland are pressing charges against a Protestant bishop and a member of the national Parliament for publicly stating what the Bible teaches about sex and marriage.

Bishop Juhana Pohjola and Parliament member Paivi Rasanen face fines and up to two years in prison under “hate crimes” laws that effectively criminalize speech and set the government up as the arbiter of what religious beliefs are legal in Finland. One of the charges against Rasanen is the alleged crime of posting a Bible verse on Twitter.

“Free people should not have to violate and recant their deepest convictions to remain part of a free society,” the U.S. lawmakers write in response to this situation. “True religious liberty both protects an individual’s right both to hold beliefs that are unpopular with the prevailing cultural winds of the world, but also their right to live out authentically and profess the truths they hold dear without fear of government interference. Those rights are fundamental and unalienable to the whole human race, and it is critical to the flourishing of both the human soul and civil society.”

Rasanen and Pohjola have each been interrogated for hours by Finnish officials for stating beliefs that Christians have held for thousands of years. They will stand trial in January.

New Inflation Numbers Are Here and They’re Really Bad (VIDEO)

/0 Comments/in , /by

New wholesale inflation numbers from September are in and once again prove the rapid increase in prices for everyday items isn’t “transitory” as President Joe Biden has repeatedly claimed.

Wholesale prices rose by 8.6 percent compared to September 2020, matching the largest increase on record.

“The Labor Department reported Tuesday that its producer price index — which measures inflation before it hits consumers — rose 0.6% last month from September, pushed higher by surging gasoline prices. Excluding volatile food and energy prices, wholesale inflation was up 0.4% in October from September and 6.8% from a year ago,” the Associated Press reports. “More than 60% of the September-October increase in overall producer prices was caused by a 1.2% increase in the price of wholesale goods as opposed to services. A 6.7% jump in wholesale gasoline prices helped drive goods prices up.”

Reporter Says Photos Show Pence Hiding During Capitol Riot

/0 Comments/in , /by

ABC Chief Washington Correspondent Jonathan Karl says there are photos of Mike Pence hiding underground during the Capitol riot that the former vice president’s team did not want him to publish.

The journalist, who is previewing a forthcoming book, Betrayal: The Final Act of the Trump Show, described to late-night talk show host Stephen Colbert how he got in touch with an “official White House photographer” who was with Pence during the several hours “he was hidden away in the bowels of the Capitol in a place no one has ever really known.” Karl said he saw all of the photographs for himself.

“It is wild to see that he was in a loading dock in an underground parking garage beneath the Capitol complex,” Karl said in a CBS clip shared by The Late Show on Monday. “No place to sit. No desk. No chairs. Nothing. He was in this concrete … parking garage with his family.”

“This is the vice president of the United States, and he’s … holed up in a basement,” he added.

In one of the photos, Karl said an aide was showing Pence a tweet from former President Donald Trump slamming his vice president for not having “the courage” to try and overturn the results of the 2020 election while he was presiding in the Senate chamber over lawmakers certifying Joe Biden’s victory on the day of the riot.

WATCH: Kenosha Detective Admits Kyle Rittenhouse Only Shot People Chasing Him

/0 Comments/in , /by

Kenosha Police Department Detective Ben Antaramian, a prosecution witness, admitted under cross-examination Monday in Kenosha County Court that Kyle Rittenhouse only shot people who chased him through the streets during Black Lives Matter riots last Aug. 25.

Rittenhouse, who was 17 at the time, is on trial for murder and related charges after shooting and killing two people and wounding another rifle in a melee shortly before midnight. Rittenhouse’s lawyers say that he was acting in self-defense.

Earlier in the day, Gaige Grosskreutz, the man who was wounded and survived, admitted under cross-examination by defense attorney Corey Chirafisi that he had pulled his own gun first, and had pointed it at Rittenhouse, on the ground.

The prosecution then called Detective Antaramian, and Chirafisi went to work again, eliciting an admission that police declined to execute a search warrant on Grosskreutz, and that Rittenhouse had only shot people who were pursuing him.

Chirafisi systematically worked through the other possibilities: “You’d agree there are multiple times, based on the surrounding circumstances, that he doesn’t pull the trigger, right?” After Antaramian seemed reluctant to agree, Chirafisi cited an example in which an unarmed person ran up to Rittenhouse, and then stepped back, and the latter did not fire.
