It’s been reported that during an interview with Blaze TV’s “You Are Here,” Rittenhouse spoke about his plans going forward after he was acquitted of all charges related to the Kenosha shootings. Rittenhouse did not mince his words when discussing Kenosha County prosecutor Thomas Binger, saying his experience in court changed his plans for his future career.
“I want to be a lawyer,” Rittenhouse said. “Yeah, I wanna go to law school.”
“Did you just decide that during the trial, or is that something you’ve always wanted to do?” asked Blaze Media’s Sara Gonzales.
“Uh, toward the end of the trial, I was like, I wanna go against a corrupt piece of s*** prosecutors like Thomas Binger and put them in their place and make sure they never practice law again,” Rittenhouse said.
“I love that,” Gonzales replied. “Wow, good for you.”

Rittenhouse has opened up about two critical points in his trial that made him believe the state had “no case” against him.
Rittenhouse sat down with Charlie Kirk, host of The Charlie Kirk Show, and Human Events editor Jack Posobiec for an interview and spoke more in-depth about the build-up before the trial, the non-guilty verdict, and what life has been like for him since the trial ended.
“At what point in the trial were you like, okay this is going in a direction that is somewhat favorable,” Kirk asked Rittenhouse.
“There were two, actually, from when I knew the state didn’t have a case,” Rittenhouse began.
“It’s when they had their opening statements and when they put Dominick Black (Rittenhouse’s friend) on the stand, which really helped me. That’s when I knew that they didn’t have a case.”
“So the opening statements, you already knew?” Kirk said.
“Yeah,” Rittenhouse said, explaining the prosecution claiming that the teenager “chased down” Joseph Rosenbaum, “which is not true.”
“What exactly was [prosecution’s] strategy for putting Black on the stand, because his story completely lined up with your story,” Posobiec asked Rittenhouse.
“I think they called Dominick to the stand hoping that he would lie,” Rittenhouse stated. “But Dominick was under oath and he told the truth.
