By now you know there is nothing I hate more than media lies and its corresponding mob justice. Perhaps some of the greatest media lies over this last year, were pertaining to the Kyle Rittenhouse case.Ruthlessly smeared and libeled as a White Supremacist, the media became obsessed with pushing their lies about what happened in Kenosha that night he ran for his life\u2014 so obsessed, that they even stalked, harassed, and punished those who supported the truth.\u00a0Former Lieutenant William Kelly was one such man who was punished for siding with the truth. When left-wing hackers released the details of those who anonymously donated to Kyle Rittenhouse\u2019s defense fund last year\u2014Lt. Kelly\u2019s name was among them.\u00a0The Guardian\u2014the despicable left wing rag of a publication\u2014 released his name to the public which led to Lieutenant Kelly being fired and publicly humiliated by the Norfolk Police Department in April of this year. He donated just 25 dollars, anonymously.\u00a0Kelly is a 19 year veteran and a father of three. That did not matter. He made the contribution anonymously so as not to draw attention or association to the police force. That also did not matter. His spineless police chief, Larry Boone, a radical BLM supporter who attended BLM rallies in uniform\u2014 allowed the double standard of his firing to occur because to Boone, delivering mob justice mattered more than siding with truth.\u00a0Since his dismissal, William \u201cBill\u201d Kelly has been surviving on his savings and his wife\u2019s teacher salary.\u00a0This is unacceptable. The routine threats, lies, and duress that our police officers nationwide are made to face to satisfy the black lives matter radical narrative cannot continue.All police officers have a right to privately support issues and causes they care about in their off-duty time. In this particular circumstance, Lt. Kelly was supporting the truth.\u00a0Kyle Rittenhouse is innocent. So is Lieutenant Kelly.Please support him.\u00a0The Daily Wire is one of America\u2019s fastest-growing conservative media companies and counter-cultural outlets for news, opinion, and entertainment.
