Twitter disables retweet function on Rittenhouse mother's tweet condemning Big Tech censorship of her son

Kyle Rittenhouse, who is currently facing trial for shooting three men, killing two of them, on the night of Aug. 25, 2020, was branded as a "white supremacist" from the beginning by left-wing politicians and personalities.

His trial has done much to back the claims of self-defense that his defense attorneys are arguing, yet Twitter has disabled the retweet function on a tweet by Rittenhouse's mother stating that media had lied about her son and condeming Big Tech's attempts to "crush & deplatform" the young defendant.

"The media & many who know better viciously lied about my son from he start. Tech companies tried to crush & deplatform @freekyleusa over 20x, often w/o explanation," wrote Wendy Rittenhouse.
