Youth activist Kyle Rittenhouse got an earful on social media after bragging about receiving "special ops" training, Newsweek reported on Wednesday.

Rittenhouse, now 21, became famous after he traveled from Illinois to Wisconsin in 2020 with a semiautomatic rifle to police the streets of Kenosha, Wisconsin, during the protests over the shooting of Jacob Blake, during which he got into an altercation that led to him shooting three people, two fatally.

"Training with some special op guys today! Fun content coming soon!" he posted on X Tuesday, alongside three other people with rifles and tactical gear. He followed up with a picture of himself posing with his firearm and gear by a cooler, saying, "I was exhausted after training all day! More training this week!"...
