perpetuating that narrative that kyle rittenhouse is a some sort of a shooter, domestic terrorist, white supremacist. cori bush who said, representative cori bush said this is another example why we don t feel safe here hon will: lawrence: they feel safe in their district, with crime every day, people raped and shot on every single streit. this is so ridiculous. tough go back to how we opened up the show with people stealing from louis vuitton. get a job, okay? i m trying to figure out how that will help the situation. number two, i continue to see black lives matter out there on the street. what are you protesting? no one black was even involved? no one black was involved, no one. if you want to protest injustice. you ve been talking about overzealous prosecutions. go after the prosecutions. talk about how they hid evidence. talk about how they brought
those who disagree. gofundme stopped fund-raising campaigns for rittenhouse after permitterring them more than a year. lara logan, welcome to the show. we heard so muc about the media and their dishonesty in the kyle rittenhouse case but not about big tech which is arguably more powerful. yeah. if you re a politician in this country or anywhere else in the world can you get elected without facebook or doing gel? google does manipulate search results every single day. rachel, this highlighted something i ve been learning about while investigating other stories. would you believe that banks are actually dictating to their investors when they can invest in a cause or not? if it s a conservative christian cause the bank can sometimes say no, you re not allowed. i ve been hearing this from
lawrence: this was bigger than just kyle. if we say that wasn t self-defense, especially with crime on the rise, when we have to defend ourselves, they are so short-minded, shortsighted the way they see this, they don t realize they re helping the prosecution with the defense against them when they re faced with that option themselves. so it is just sad. rachel: there is another thing about this as well, which is, when communists, when an arc universities an when racial agitators come to your to in, they burn, they loot your businesses, they ruin your dreams, are you supposed to because there s a racial angle supposedly in this case because of jacob blake are you supposed to hide in your house? i personally think, i, my husband, we would defend our town. a lot of people in kenosha did. kyle rittenhouse was not the only person carrying a weapon. there were people with bats, rifles, guns. on people sleeping with them. other people outside the businesses because there were
he has been through a lot. that is probably why he reached out to kyle rittenhouse directly. reach out to me. i know what you ve been through. let me help you learn from what i ve gone through. these boys had to grow up real fast because of the trauma of this, and i agree, with alexis description, this is like ptsd. lawrence: will you touched on a point about the humanization as well but i also think that was the problem with this case. i ve been having a lot of conversations with friends disagree with me where i stand on this case and part of what i continue to hear is the larger narrative or the big picture. you know that is not the way the criminal justice system works. you cannot connect this to another case or say this larger movement. i have not heard from any of the critics of our commentary to say there was something in the evidence that suggested that he was guilty. and that is where we re going as
that we wanted true justice. that had never be about mob justice. rittenhouse was a sacrificial lamb. everybody knows it. everybody knows it was in the middle of the race. he was the trump supporter. the little white kid that went into a gun to protect his neighborhood. you know what? it didn t matter if the facts didn t go along with their narrative. they needed someone as a fall guy. he was that guy. rachel: later in the show, lawrence you will interview a norfolk police lieutenant. he was fired by the way for donating $25 to rittenhouse s fund-raiser. that interview is up at 8:20 a.m. i remember when that happened. will: i think it is important to note. gofundme shut down all donations to kyle rittenhouse s defense. now you can donate to kyle
