‘F**k You LeBron’: Kyle Rittenhouse Hits Back After NBA Star Dunked on His Crying at Trial
Kyle Rittenhouse hit back at LeBron James for mocking his emotional display while he was on trial for homicide.
Rittenhouse appeared on The Blaze’s You Are Here podcast, where he spoke to hosts Elijah Schaffer and Sydney Watson about being acquitted for shooting two people dead and wounding a third last year in Kenosha. During the conversation, Rittenhouse admitted traveling to Kenosha was “not the best idea” while the city was embroiled in civil unrest, and he refused a compliment from his hosts by saying he shouldn’t be “congratulated” for killing people.
As the show continued to unfold, the conversation eventually turned toward James’ tweet last month where he mocked Rittenhouse while he was on the stand. Rittenhouse had an emotional episode at that moment of his trial, and James accused him of faking it, doubting Rittenhouse was really crying.
“What tears????? I didn’t see one. Man knock it off! That boy ate some lemon heads before walking into court,” James tweeted.

“I was a Lakers fan too before he said that,” Rittenhouse said in response. “I was really pissed off when he said that because I liked LeBron, and then I’m like, you know, f*ck you, LeBron.”
