On MTP Daily on MSNBC, Joyce Vance, an MSNBC legal analyst and former Obama appointee as a US Attorney, commenting on Kyle Rittenouse's acquittal, says: " this strikes me as an odd situation for self-defense.

It can even happen on her social media accounts. On November 16, Reid took to TikTok to compare the Kyle Rittenhouse trial to the confirmation hearings of Brett Kavanaugh three years ago.
