Recently it emerged that one of Wood’s ostensibly nobler pursuits may have been a grift all along as well. In an interview after a jury found Kyle Rittenhouse innocent of all charges against him stemming from an August 2020 incident in Kenosha, Wis., he revealed the extent of Wood’s mistreatment of him. Rittenhouse claimed that Wood and John Pierce, another attorney, had kept him in jail longer than necessary while they raised funds for his bail via their own foundation. Rittenhouse also considered Wood “insane” and fired him in December 2020.
All of which is to say that Marjorie Taylor Green is totally on the money to call out Lin Wood for costing Republicans the Senate and for mistreating Kyle Rittenhouse. It is heartening to see Greene push back against someone some might say would be on her “team.” She is right that sometimes these are the people most in need of correction or refutation.
