All the claims about it not being self defense are vanishing like this communist's arm.

Somebody deserves this
GRAPHIC: A friend of the man who rushed at the #Kenosha teen with a pistol and was shot in the arm has posted an update about his status. Doctors were able to save Gaige Grosskreutz’s right arm. The friend says Gaige regrets not being able to kill the teen. pic.twitter.com/2gJmnnroTF

Somebody sounds like a sore loser if you ask me.
I think he deserves this as a pick-me-up:

Because that has something to do with a police officer shooting a man with a knife who refused to follow directions after a domestic violence incident.
No, but antisemitism and Woke Islamophilia is on brand for them l, so why not desecrate a Synagogue?
Fucking savages.
NYT makes a half decent timeline of the Kyle Rittenhouse shootings
He eventually leaves the dealership and is barred by the police from returning. Six minutes later footage shows Mr. Rittenhouse being chased by an unknown group of people into the parking lot of another dealership several blocks away.
Reader Il Duca Mateo sent me the NYT’s link. I am gonna use the Archive.org version so you can see it pass the paywall. No judgements from the writers, just some info complimented with a couple of other things
Staying Alive in the Brave New World – Michael Bane
If we apply that same thinking to our current situation, we see the fallacy in “relax.” If we relax and the current crisis just fades away, everything is cool If we relax and are, in fact, wrong, we lose the country, the Constitution, the Bill of Rights, the vote, our guns and maybe even our lives. The teeter-totter is wildly weighted on only one end.

Your obligatory reading for today.
The DOJ needs to see this one through to the end
This announcement from the DOJ:
Department of Justice Requesting Data From Governors of States that Issued COVID-19 Orders that May Have Resulted in Deaths of Elderly Nursing Home Residents https://t.co/V60wYlxcLR

DOJ probes nursing home deaths in 4 states — including in NY
The US Justice Department has opened a preliminary inquiry into the coronavirus nursing home policies of New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania and Michigan that it says “may have resulted in the deaths of thousands of elderly nursing home residents.”
The Justice Dept. release says the state “required nursing homes to admit COVID-19 patients to their vulnerable populations, often without adequate testing.”
“Protecting the rights of some of society’s most vulnerable members, including elderly nursing home residents, is one of our country’s most important obligations. We must ensure they are adequately cared for with dignity and respect and not unnecessarily put at risk,” said Eric Dreiban, assistant attorney general for the Civil Rights Division.
I’m glad that the DOJ is doing this but what I fear (know) will happen is that the DOJ will do fuck-all nothing with the information.
Cuomo might have violated the civil rights of over 6,000 elderly people in New York to death, but do anyone actually believe the FBI will handcuff him and perp walk him out of the Governor’s Mansion into a federal holding cell the way he deserves?
This won’t end with a bang but with a whimper.
What will impress me is having a US Attorney that has the solid brass balls to toss Cuomo and de Blasio into a maximum-security federal penitentiary on 18 U.S. Code § 241 to get cornholed.
