the next election actually paid attention because with there was just so much noise. i also think at the end of the the day that this trial, because of the sheer timing and coincidence, has overshadowed a big win for the democrats, the build back better package in the house, something you would think they would want to be blaring all day long and also on the networks. but if you watched the network news, they led with rittenhouse on friday because that was the day the verdict came out. howard: completely obliterated. the bill does have to go through the senate, of course. right. howard: president biden came out saying he was angry and concerned like many americans, but we must acknowledge the jury has spoke. is this an effort by some liberal pundits and politicians to make kyle rittenhouse a symbol of armed white people run amok and to hell with the facts of the case in. yes, absolutely. leapt me charitable. here s what i think is going on. i think many on the left feel
when you don t see it, when you hear it through the filter of biased reporters, you re shocked. and that s what turns people to the streets. people turn to the streets screaming and yelling about rittenhouse, particularly in brooklyn where the campaign against rittenhouse was started by people holding palestinian flags yelling intifada. it s part of a broad narrative. it has nothing to do with this young man who s not a hero, who shouldn t have been there, who shouldn t have had an ar-15. no 17-year-old kid should have that. but they turned this into a case involving everything on the hard left and every accusation of white supremacy that comes out of the woke culture. howard: yeah. whatever mistakes he made, he was entitled to a fair trial, not a trial to uphold some kind of social justice banner. alan dershowitz, always good to see you. thanks for your expert analysis here. thank you. howe ohio a tough cnn story on kamala harris strikes a nerve at the white house and sparks accusat
the fringes of those both conservative and liberal parties. and i think in the middle people are sort of watching it, that they re thinking about the issues, but maybe they re also thinking about other things as well like pocketbook issues before the election. really quickly if i could jump in, the only thing i d push back on is this idea that kyle rittenhouse s trial is being partisan, and it has been driven by the polls of each ideology. here s the thing, we have we used to have more, lofty ideological debates. but what we re talking about now is a battle for the basis of basic truth. and basic truth was denied to the public over the kyle rittenhouse trial. the public does not know the details of the case. howie, you re right, the jury got past the the pregame narrative because they were in the courtroom and heard the evidence. but most people, as you pointed out, were at home and didn t get to see that. so the the pregame narrative played in their minds if, and the battle over b
just some rulings, you know, even whether it was mr. rittenhouse s conduct, whatever. i think that caused some problems. again, for the government going forward. so the jury, they tried to compromise or there was some dissent back and forth, about having the delay in the signing of the verdict forms on certain counts so ultimately, it s not unusual to see juries come to a verdict on friday. they want to end the week. they have responsibilities and family duties and other things just like everybody else. and so you know, once a case and deliberations move toward a friday deadline, you almost expect to see a jury wrap up. i want to get your take on what may come next. potential civil lawsuits. what would a prosecution potentially look like in a civil case? just think about the o.j. simpson case. in that case, you had a verdict of not guilty on the criminal case then there was a suit where the burden of proof is much less. you don t have to prove, for
the move comes as families are preparing to gather for the holidays. i feel like in this case, it feels like the victims lives don t matter. kyle said if i had to do it all over again, i wouldn t do it. raw emotion and reaction from the families of those killed by kyle rittenhouse and rittenhouse himself is speaking out. the bills is passed. president biden scores a win. now facing an uncertain future in the senate. we are all motivated to make the travel as easy and as enjoyable, but mostly as safe and secure as we can. the tsa is bracing for a record travel season since the pandemic began and an incoming storm could make for one heck of a travel nightmare. and where is the growing demand for answers following the
