Kyle Rittenhouse sat down with Fox News’ Tucker Carlson for an exclusive interview on Monday where he shared a lot of interesting insights after the Kenosha incident and his takes on the current state of media and the current state of the country was really interesting as well.
When talking about the media and the smear campaign most of the liberal news outlets had launched against him, he mentioned that he hinted at defamation lawsuits against those who spread false narratives about him and painted him as a ‘white supremacist’ he didn’t go in much detail but many prominent conservatives believe that he is setting up the groundwork for these lawsuits.
He called the liberal media reporting about him “disgrace to the country” after which host Tucker Carlson asked him about the possibility of “holding some of these lies accountable” to which Rittenhouse didn’t directly disclose the upcoming lawsuits at first but when pressed, he said “I have really good lawyers who are taking care of that right now. So, I’m hoping one day, there will be some — there will be accountability for their actions that they did”
During other points in the interview, Rittenhouse also dropped more hints about the potential lawsuits that he might be filing against the mainstream media outlets as well as other prominent liberal activists and talking heads who defamed him.
When Tucker asked Rittenhouse about his response to Joe Biden’s several accusations of him being a ‘white supremacist’, Rittenhouse responded in a very calm and professional manner:
“Mr. President, if I could say one thing to you, I would urge you to go back and watch the trial and understand the facts before you make a statement. — it is actual malice, defaming my character for him to say something like that.”
Rittenhouse strategically dropped the ‘malice’ and ‘defaming’ words here.
At a further point in this interview, Tucker asked Rittenhouse if he thinks that his life has been destroyed after this incident, Rittenhouse again responded in a very calm and sensible manner:
“I feel my life has been extremely defamed by it. I don’t think I would be able to go out and get a job and not have to deal with harassment. But I’m at a place now where I have to have people with me because people want to kill me just because I defended myself and they’re too ignorant to look at the facts of what happened. — I see some of the threats. Some of the things people say, it’s absolutely sickening,” he said.
Again, strategically dropping hints with the ‘defamed’ words.
He also called out the media for lying on the obvious facts and using his actions to push a false political agenda.
“It’s actually quite hysterical how nobody can go back and look at the facts of the case. He crossed state lines. False. He’s a white supremacist. False. None of that is true. And the lies that they can just get away with spreading. It’s just sickening. And it’s a disgrace to this country.”
