MALONEY--STUNNING ERROR: DCCC FUMBLES STATEMENT CONDEMNING RITTENHOUSE VERDICT--"APOLOGIES"

‘Apologies’: DCCC fumbles statement condemning Rittenhouse verdict--The chairman of the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee on Friday was forced to walk back his remarks on the Kyle Rittenhouse verdict after making false claims about the case.

Soon after Mr. Rittenhouse was acquitted of murder charges for fatally shooting two during racial justice riots, Rep. Sean Patrick Maloney of New York said the riots were “against the unjust killing of Jacob Blake, an unarmed Black man.”

Mr. Blake was neither unarmed nor killed when shot by a white police officer responding to a domestic disturbance call in Kenosha, Wisconsin.....“We sent out an incorrect version of our statement,” DCCC spokesman Chris Hayden said on Twitter. “Here is the corrected version. Apologies.” MORE AT WASHINGTON TIMES HERE.
