A Maryland state official was fired Saturday after sharing social media posts supporting Kyle Rittenhouse, who prosecutors say killed two people and severely wounded a third last week during protests in Kenosha, Wisconsin.

"These divisive images and statements are inconsistent with the mission and core values of the Office of Community Initiatives," McAdams said."Kevin Craft, administrative director of the Governor’s Commission on African Affairs, will assume these duties effective immediately.""These posts are obviously totally inappropriate," she said in a statement."We fully support the immediate actions taken by Director McAdams to address this matter.

NBC News reached out to Love, whose friend and spokesman, Gary Collins, acknowledged the former state employee had shared the posts. "He believes that in the United States, all people deserve their fair shot and due process," Collins said Tuesday."Ironically enough, Mr. Love did not receive due process in the termination of his employment with Gov. Hogan's office."Monday, “I'm not asking, nor do I want my job back," but also added,"I just want my life back. I'm an innocent American.

JFKHQ If you watched all of the videos of Kyle, the truth is much different than portrayed by the NWO communist media who is always setting false flames to keep the rent a rioters burning & destroying, harming & killing innocent people. Left is bailing out the rioters. Seems odd

AmysandersonAmy See, this Law & Order Message Is NOT working for MiniStrokeManTrump Now, he’s encouraging his voters to commit a felony & vote TWICE!! Law & order my foot! palomapoetry ElaineG16 dema614 churchlady320 WalterLapp AmBeachy I_Am_Concerned greenpeeps5 MtrCtyLady ninigirl84

Censor conservatives.

Make America Like Somalia.

Good job, Kyle. You eliminated 3 criminals. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

Good. Any rep defending that POS deserves to get canned.

GOP DT cares more about Gun Touting Thugs, It is heartbreaking to see GOP has not denounced actions by DT & police & lost conscience! Police shot jacob for leaning into the car & this WHITE boy was parading thru the street with AK47. BLACK boy would have been shot for the same!

Ridiculous he was fired. Kyle did everything right and will be acquired. Then the civil suits begin. Better start deleting your posts disparaging a minor. He will make Nick Sandmann look poor when this is over.

Good

idigmines Good.

Now if only we could fire Trump for his inappropriate words and actions!

realDonaldTrump defends a murder. He pardons those who lie to law enforcement. He lied about what the WI police report said. Half of his associates are criminals. LAW & ORDER?

Good, I hope more and more of these bigoted officials come out from behind their 'upstanding individual' veneer and show who they really are. They need to be identified and squashed in the most public way possible.

InTrumpsAmerica

...there's an 'official' still in the WhiteHouse ?

“Mass shooting” suspect.

Cancel culture ... if the Dems win canceling will become law and by by first amendment

looks like self defense. This kid was applying first aid to an injured protester. Rosenbaum saw him seperated from his group pursued him. Kid fled until he was corned defended himself. He was running away from the other 2 people who were shot. They assulted. He defended himself.

Rottenhouse shot the first victim in the back before he was stopped and he killed one more.

hmm sounds illegal

How is it legal for the government to fire a worker for expressing his opinion? TheJusticeDept is too lax on protecting free speech. 1stA

So DJT should be fired as well.

Imagine if WHITE LIVES MATTER rioted looted and murdered in the name of white violent Criminals and child molesters while EVERYDAY committed drive by shootings,crack wars, SLAUGHTERING INOCCENT CHILDREN AND INFANTS IN THE STREETS EVERYDAY? or greeted each other with racial slurs?

So when whites are armed go to the streets that is'citizen soldiers', armed POC becomes a riot? gangs? antifa? looters? Just more examples of scared ass white men wanna be soldiers

WOW VOTE FOR BIDEN AND THIS IS HOW YOU WILL HAVE TO LIVE SICKENING

Kyle must be tried as an adult and charged as a terrorist. Two counts of murder, assorted accounts of attempted murder, minor in possession of a deadly weapon, transporting a firearm across state lines to commit felony assault... there's more I'm sure... Make and example of him

Why would he be fired? Kyle acted in self-defense, which is clear from the videos. Kyle is a hero. FreeKyleRittenhouse

Too much Truth for those in power

He could be charged with anything but that kid should be entitled to his innocence until proven guilty. You media rats are convicting him because he isn't your approved type.

realDonaldTrump has encouraged Americans to start shooting each other in the streets. TrumpTerrorism VoteTrumpOut VoteBlueToSaveAmerica
