The 18-year-old who was cleared of any wrongdoing in killing two violent protesters in Kenosha, Wisconsin last year said that he is preparing to file lawsuits against news organizations and personalities for the “lies” they spread about him.
Speaking to Tucker Carlson on Fox News, Kyle Rittenhouse said he and his team will be launching “The Media Accountability Project” that will “help fundraise and hold the media accountable for the lies they said and deal with them in court.”
“I don’t want to see anybody else have to deal with what I went through,” Rittenhouse said.
Rittenhouse said that one of the people he is looking at suing is ‘The View’ co-host Whoopi Goldberg, who was recently suspended over her comments on the Holocaust.
“She called me a ‘murderer’ after I was acquitted by a jury of my peers,” Rittenhouse said. “She went on to still say that. And there’s others. Don’t forget about Cenk [Uygur] from ‘The Young Turks.’ He called me a murderer before verdict and continues to call me a murderer.”

if he sues them theyll deserve it
they deserve it all
Young Mr. Rittenhouse will soon learn that when you take your rifle, cross state lines, tag along with police resonding to a public protest, and kill someone, you are likely to be treated as a public figure. Public figures have less protection from defamation laws than private citizens who stay private.
He’s just a stupid kid who had no business traveling to Kenosha as a self selected protector of property armed with a military type weapon. Now he’s a celebrity giving advice.
Will innocent people be able to sue Trump also?
Looks like “huju” and “yaakov doe” are still spreading canards that have long been proven false in court. Rittenhouse has family and friends in Kenosha which he visited regularly, and this was nothing more than another such regular visit (he brought no weapon with him). He only took a weapon (which the judge showed decisively was perfectly legal) after he was already there in Kenosha and was (when already there) asked by some acquaintances to help protect property (including property owned by non-whites) from these marauding gangs (because police refused to do so).
The one thing more than anything I want to say to you two guys is that if you want goyim to stop spreading canards about Jews, then first stop spreading canards about goyim. (And in case you wonder, I am a yeshiva graduate from Orthodox yeshiva).
