Famous Zoomer Toobin Of CNN Calls Rittenhouse An ‘Idiot.’ James Woods Fires: ‘Is Toobin Just Yanking Our Crank?’
On Wednesday, CNN chief legal analyst and former federal prosecutor Jeffrey Toobin, most famous for losing his job at The New Yorker after he was caught masturbating on a Zoom work call, offered his profound opinion on Kyle Rittenhouse, barking on CNN, “What kind of idiot 17-year-old gets a giant gun and goes to a riot? … The good news for Kyle Rittenhouse is that he’s not on trial for being an idiot. He’s on trial for homicide.”
Actor James Woods, who in addition for his fame for his protean talent on screen, has also become a favorite of conservatives for his fearlessness expressing his conservative views in the bastion of leftist Hollywood, fired back on Thursday morning, “Is Toobin just yanking our crank?”

And if it were illegal to be an idiot, the jails would be even more crowded than they are now. Homicide is a different matter. And he may have a defense here.

In June, CNN welcomed Toobin back; he had been fired from The New Yorker after he was caught masturbating on a Zoom call with his colleagues in October 2020. Toobin took a leave of absence from CNN after the incident, which was first reported by Vice.
CNN’s Alisyn Camerota started by saying, “I feel like we should address what’s happened in the months since we’ve seen you, since some of our viewers may not know what has happened. So I guess I’ll recap: I’ll do the honors.”
