(Republican Party News) – NBA legend LeBron James should probably start watching his mouth, both in real life and in the digital world, as what you say, while covered by freedom of speech (meaning the government cannot silence your voice) still might come with some rather hefty consequences.
According to The Western Journal, Kyle Rittenhouse made an appearance on the Daily Wire talk show “Candace,” where he told host Candace Owens that “there is going to be some accountability” for all of the individuals and news organizations that allegedly defamed him during his trial, and this might include LeBron James.
The 18-year-old Rittenhouse was facing charges related to the shooting of three men, two of whom were killed, during riots in Kenosha, Wisconsin, back on Aug. 25, 2020. The young man was found not guilty on all counts as his actions were declared to be an act of self-defense.
For many folks, the video footage clearly proved that Rittenhouse acted in self-defense. However, quite a few celebrities and mainstream media personalities — even President Joe Biden — made derogatory comments about Rittenhouse, even going on to claim that he not only murdered these men, but that he did so because he was a white supremacist.
The victims were white.
Among the gaggle of celebrities who decided to share their opinions and thoughts about Rittenhouse and the trial was LeBron James who mocked the 18-year-old for crying on the stand as he recounted the killing of the two men in self-defense.
“What tears????? I didn’t see one. Man knock it off! That boy ate some lemon heads before walking into court,” James said in a tweet posted on Nov. 11.

“I remember when they read the verdict and I was obviously very happy with the verdict, and I was just so angry at the people like LeBron James who were kind of feeding this narrative that wasn’t true,” Owens stated as a graphic of James’ tweet popped up.
Owens then told the 18-year-old that, despite the fact the jury found Rittenhouse not guilty, “it didn’t feel like justice completely.” Owens felt that the not guilty verdict was just “justice part A.”
“Is there a justice part B here? Are you going to allow all of these celebrities to have gotten away with that?” the show host asked Rittenhouse.
“There is going to be some accountability, Candace,” he went on to state as the audience broke into cheers.
Later on in the episode, Rittenhouse once again reiterated that lawsuits might be coming down the road.
“Accountability is coming,” he stated again.
Toward the end of the interview, after she wished Rittenhouse well on his journey forward, Owens remarked, “May that journey include lots of celebrities, athletes, sports stars like LeBron James being sued for defamation.”
It looks like James might just end up paying for Rittenhouse’s college education. That would be a much better use of the money than anything the NBA legend might do with it.
