KENOSHA, WISCONSIN - NOVEMBER 17: Kyle Rittenhouse looks back as attorneys discuss items in the motion for mistrial presented by his defense during his trial at the Kenosha County Courthouse on November 17, 2021 in Kenosha, Wisconsin.

Rittenhouse, from Antioch, Illinois, was 17 at the time of the shooting and armed with an assault rifle. He faces counts of felony homicide and felony attempted homicide.

Kyle Rittenhouse has called on Elon Musk to help reveal if there were any hidden censoring attempts made against him by Twitter.

In a tweet on Monday, Rittenhouse said that the release of the Twitter Files makes him curious whether or not there was any internal communications surrounding him and his case. This comes after some media outlets labeled him a white supremacist and a mass murderer.

Learning about the twitter files and @elonmusk releasing the truth is making me more and more curious to find out if there was hidden censoring regarding my story and case on twitter. I am hoping, one day soon, I will be able to find out and the truth will be shown to all of us.

After his trial in November of last year, Rittenhouse was acquitted on murder charges stemming from the unrest during demonstrations in Kenosha, Wisconsin. He claimed he was using self-defense.

His lawyer, L. Lin Wood, was previously suspended from the social media platform after he sought financial assistance for his client’s legal fees. He was suspended after receiving a message saying he was “glorifying violence.”

Rittenhouse said he is hopeful that one day Twitter will expose more truths.

Other delegates who attended the event included President Joe Biden, First Lady Jill Biden, Vice President Kamala Harris and Second Gentleman Douglas Emhoff.

The 82-year-old has been recovering from a skull fracture and other injuries he suffered during October’s hammer attack in San Francisco.

In a conference last week, Nancy Pelosi, who recently announced her resignation from Democratic leadership, reported that her husband’s recovery is “coming along.”

David DePape, the suspect in that attack, has pled not guilty to attempted murder and other state-level charges. The state charges could result in a life sentence. The federal charges could result in penalties of up to 30 and 20 years, respectively.
