Kyle Rittenhouse Trial Day 2: The Prosecution Was a Train Wreck

Image
Joseph Rosenbaum was "stating to Kyle and to Ryan Balch in each other's presence, 'If I get either of you two alone, I'm going to kill you". - Defense attorney Mark Richards during opening statements The prosecution's presentation on the second day of the Kyle Rittenhouse trial in Kenosha, Wisconsin, was a train wreck. You wouldn't know it from the rest of the media, of course, which focused on Rittenhouse yawning or other irrelevancies. How bad was it for the state? So bad that the prosecutor's opening statement almost made the case for the defense. Assistant District Attorney Thomas Binger, given the unenviable prosecution assignment, made no persuasive argument to counter Rittenhouse's self-defense claims. Come to think of it, why isn't Kenosha County DA Mike Graveley handling what is arguably the biggest trial in Kenosha's history? Because it's got "loser" all over it, and always has, which begs the question of why t...

Gov. Tony Evers Defends Commissioners Accused of Lawbreaking

Image
Faced with an elected sheriff's painstakingly documented evidence alleging that Wisconsin Election commissioners - including two major Joe Biden donors - blatantly violated state law, Gov. Tony Evers trashed Republicans and defended the commissioners. Meanwhile, Assembly Speaker Robin Vos on Thursday led the chorus of Republicans who said WEC Administrator Meagan Wolfe must resign following claims from the Racine County sheriff that the commission broke state law last year. It appears that the state's top Democrats are okay with the Wisconsin Election Commission and its unelected members unilaterally usurping the state Legislature and deciding which laws to simply ignore, according to a state audit and the sheriff. That's even though the governor's own office had instructed the WEC that the law in question - on sending special voting deputies to nursing homes - could not be simply disregarded. The WEC is an agency under Evers. There is no sign that Attorney Gene...

Election Commissioners Committed Criminal Fraud, Says Racine County Sheriff

The Wisconsin Election Commission blatantly and openly violated state law and committed felony crimes throughout the state of Wisconsin by ordering that special voting deputies should not go into nursing homes during the 2020 presidential election, as required by statutes, the Racine County Sheriff said in a bombshell news conference on October 28, 2021, calling on Attorney General Josh Kaul to immediately launch a statewide criminal investigation. Racine County Sheriff Christopher Schmaling and his investigator Sgt. Mike Luell, who is a former prosecutor, repeatedly said in the Racine County Sheriff press conference that they believe the Commission members – who included two major Joe Biden donors, Mark Thomsen and Ann Jacobs, acting as chair and co-chair – committed the crime of election fraud. Schmaling and Luell said that elderly nursing home residents at Ridgewood Health Care center in Mount Pleasant were victimized by the lawbreaking because staff members helped residents c...
