A hacker collective called Distributed Denial of Secrets shared the donor list to a Kyle Rittenhouse defense fund. The end result is exactly what you’d expect. Some “journalists” went hunting. Their prey was those blessed sacred, “thank you so much” first responders (peace be upon them).
I appreciate first responders for lots of reasons, not the least of which is that I accept that at some point, that might be me, and that’s a burden. We may all find that we need to be our own first responders, but they do that stuff every day.
They also know (or now know) what they are in for, and like any other profession, when it turns out to not be what you thought (like, say, media reports versus reality – if and when that switch finally flicks), you might have to walk away.
Those of us who become our own first responders by force and circumstance can’t; that’s how we get that “job.”
Kyle Rittenhouse provided first aid to folks injured during the (Mostly peaceful Kenosha, Wisconsin) riots. He was helping, regardless of what side you chose, and he seems to have known the risks.

They’re Trying to Shut Us Down
Over the last several months, I’ve lost count of how many times the powers-that-be have tried to shut us down. They’ve sent hackers at us, forcing us to take extreme measures on web security. They sent attorneys after us, but thankfully we’re not easily intimidated by baseless accusations or threats. They’ve even gone so far as to make physical threats. Those can actually be a bit worrisome but Remington has me covered.
For us to continue to deliver the truth that Americans need to read and hear, we ask you, our amazing audience, for financial assistance. We have a Giving Fuel page to help us pay the bills. It’s brand new so don’t be discouraged by the lack of donations there. It’s a funny reality that the fewer the donations that have been made, the less likely people are willing to donate to it. One would think this is counterintuitive, but sometimes people are skeptical because they think that perhaps there’s a reason others haven’t been donating. In our situation, we’re just getting started so please don’t be shy if you have the means to help.
Thank you and God bless!
