“In a statement, Mr Rittenhouse – speaking for himself and as a spokesperson for Texas Gun Rights – unequivocally denounced Nick Fuentes and the circumstances around the meeting taking place near Rittenhouse’s office. ‘While I have office space in the building Fuentes visited, I did not take part in any meetings with him, nor would I. As soon as I was made aware that Fuentes was in the office, I asked my supervisor to be excused for the day. I and the entire department were thankfully dismissed. Fuentes has attacked me personally, and his hideous views denigrate the memory and legacy of my Jewish family members, some of whom were victims of the Nazi’s [sic] holocaust.'”
“TXGR, as an organization, has categorically denounced Fuentes and his abominable positions. His invitation to the building was not disclosed to TXGR, and TXGR leadership has objected to Fuentes’ presence. The organization has communicated to building’s management concerns for Rittenhouse’s safety. TXGR has issued notice that moving forward, robust safeguards must be established to prevent extending invitations to individuals who espouse racist and anti-Semitic views,” says murderous right wing vigilante Kyle Rittenhouse in a statement by his gun rights group.
This is actually one small incident in an absolutely massive clusterfuck involving a major political action committee tied to numerous Republican state legislators – and of course shitbag Attorney General Ken Paxton and Lt Governor Dan Patrick – that we haven’t gotten into here yet. The topline is that former state House member Jon Strickland, who chairs the Defend Texas Liberty PAC, also runs a consultancy called Pale Horse Strategies – which hosted Fuentes for seven hours at their office last week, causing an uproar in the party. Funny how freaking Kyle Rittenhouse would denounce Fuentes this forcefully after briefly being in the same building as him for a few hours at most… while his Orange Jesus literally ate dinner with Fuentes and wouldn’t say anything afterward.
