Last night, Neri and I watched several hours of .#Kylerittenhouse direct testimony and cross examination. We came away believing that #Kyle is telling the truth and that he acted in self defense. We found him to be a civic-minded patriot with a history of

Our first hand impressions of Kyle were materially different from those we had previously formed based on media reports and opinion pieces that we had consumed. I have always been frustrated to read an inaccurate press report about a subject I know well, yet somehow I continue to

believe other articles in the same newspaper about subjects I know less well. Media and political bias are dividing our country and destroying lives. While we have not heard the entire trial, based on our assessment of Kyle on the stand, we believe that he will be found innocent

by the jury. Often times, communities react negatively and even violently after a jury verdict where they are surprised by the outcome based on what they have previously read in the newspaper, seen on TV or more likely been served on social media. I encourage you

to watch the trial, or at a minimum his testimony and cross examination, before you form a view of his guilt or innocence. With respect to my own political bias, I am not a gun owner, nor a member of the NRA. On balance, I support stronger gun regulations and

Kyle Rittenhouse’s life is at risk. Justice demands a fair trial. Society would benefit greatly if politics did not enter the court room and convict innocent people.

Just got a call from the media asking if my Twitter account was hacked. That is, the reporter couldn’t conceive of the idea that I could believe that Kyle is innocent because I am not a right winger. Crazy.

Not for these folks that notified him. They are true believers in the cult.

Bill Ackman is an a-hole for profiteering off Covid fear-mongering by using media to manipulate and distort facts, so pardon me if it’s hard to GAF about Bill Ackman bemoaning the media’s manipulation and distortion of facts.
Besides that, it’s a solid take.

Too bad this can’t happen en mass.
It literally has to be an individual experience.

frick Ackman. He's the guy that ginned up the shutdown in March of 2020 but not before making a frickin fortune for his hedge fund

The jurors are home for a three day weekend and likely watching TV and online as usual.
While you say frick this guy, his words if seen by jurors could be beneficial.
And his balls in standing up for Kyle may induce others to voice their positive opinion as well.

Every single thing he said is grounded in diligence, reflection, sound observation.
The practices he espouses and supports are basic necessities for a healthy society. They are not radical, extreme, nor even political in substance.
Yet he will be vilified and calls will go out for his cancellation, ostracization, and isolation from the public square and society.
Such is the state of America now.
