The jury handed in their verdict today in the Kyle Rittenhouse trial: not guilty on all five counts. President Biden later commented that he stands by the verdict and that he believes the United States jury system works.

Today’s House vote marks a major victory for Democrats even as the legislation faces a tough road in the Senate.
