Summary

Kyle Rittenhouse faces 5 felony charges and if convicted on the most serious charge, could face a mandatory life sentence. Did he act reasonably in shooting and killing two unarmed men and badly injuring a third armed man saying he believed the defendant to be an active shooter? That, as the the prosecution rests in the Ahmaud Arbery murder trial, with the judge continuing to deny the defense attorney's efforts to track visitors and remove black pastors from court. Beto O'Rourke joins to discuss his bid to take on GOP incumbent Greg Abbott in the 2022 Texas Governor's Race. O’Rourke has criticized Abbot’s “ultra conservative policies” and “anti-immigrant rhetoric”. With Abbot sliding in approval ratings, what could this mean for the former Presidential candidate’s chances?
