One of their idiot producers had one of their idiot grunts tail the jury bus like he was the fucking Brother Seamus from Big Lebowski. Spooked the cops and now Schroeder says they're barred from the courthouse.

Good God this whole thing is just peak distilled collapsing empire insanity

    What liberals ought to do is decry this at the loudest possible volume, just like the right would do if it were Fox that got banned. Injustice! They're operating in secret! They don't want transparency! Etc.

    What liberals will do is: nothing.

      lol as if the right were trying to hide this shit, they do not care in the slightest

      the hypocrisy is the point, the whole thing of the right is that they want to have rights while you explicitly don’t

      liberals doing nothing is about as effective as them complaining about this

          Yeah, the best and only thing liberals can do is become leftists and bring out the guillotines

            If Rittenhouse walks out of that courthouse, I hope he doesn't get very far.

            In Minecraft, of course.

              Meh. He's a seventeen year old idiot. Nothing much would change if he got whacked, except that it might stoke the hogs to apoplexy. I honestly don't think killing him would help anything. It wouldn't garner any support from the Lib majority. And a distressing number of leftists seem to buy in to the bullshit idea that a fascist can act in self defense, so we wouldn't gain much there. And of course the hogs would go ballistic.

              It's really upsetting how many left and left adjacent people can't seem to get it in their heads that the mere existence of a fascist is a lethal threat to everyone around them. This kid is a perfect example of that threat; Fash want to kill, and they will find a way to kill. "Self Defense" isn't anywhere in the framing.

      I have no doubt that Rachael Maddow will do a five minute rant about the First Amendment Under Attack. And her audience will be told, in no uncertain terms, that the real victims of Kenosha are corporate media advertisement executives.

      Does it really matter how many clownshow reporters follow this case? The results will break, and there will be protests or there will be protests.

          I could understand getting upset if this was the Donzinger trial that barely got any coverage but this case is pure spectacle. Wall to wall coverage of cases like this suck all the air out of the room and shut down critical reporting in other areas.

            I am saying that liberals should create more spectacle about their liberal news getting banned.

            It's not like they're doing anything real, anyway.
