Kyle Rittenhouse Dragged After Making Outrageous Claim About Fluoride In Water
Now that he's back, Rittenhouse is regurgitating homophobic conspiracy theories. The teen killer, now 23 years old, told his followers to "drink clean water" to avoid becoming gay.
He posted:
"Prove me wrong. The fluoride in our water is making people gay. Drink clean water."
His misinformation was quickly fact-checked by X users, who added a context note to his post:
"Studies and health agencies find no link between fluoride in tap water and being gay. U.S. fluoridation is set at 0.7 mg/L to prevent cavities, and agencies do not report any effect on sexual orientation."
Experts stressed, again, that there is no scientific evidence linking water fluoridation to sexual orientation.
Rittenhouse's post drew almost universal mockery.

Before posting his unsupported claim, Rittenhouse shared video of himself appearing on Alex Jones's show.
Jones infamously made headlines claiming chemicals in water were making frogs gay.
Trump Blasted After Declaring Himself ‘Acting President Of Venezuela’ In Mock Wikipedia Entry
While the post is an obvious troll, it is a tacit slam against Delcy Rodríguez, whom the Trump administration recognizes as Venezuela’s interim president. Rodríguez herself has “invited the U.S. government to work together on an agenda of cooperation," dialing back remarks she made shortly after assuming the role of Acting President that Venezuela would “never again be anyone’s colony."
Her change of tune came after Trump told The Atlantic that she could “pay a very big price, probably bigger than Maduro” if she did not bend to his wishes.
You can see Trump's post and the image below.

This is very concerning coming from a president who alarmed the U.S. after telling The New York Times that the only existing constraints on his power are those limited by his "morality" and "my own mind."
Notably, Trump also told the publication that he would decide when international law constraints apply to the U.S., saying “it depends what your definition of international law is."
Recently, the Venezuelan ambassador to the United Nations, Samuel Moncada, accused Washington of an "illegitimate armed attack devoid of any legal justification," adding that Venezuela’s "natural wealth, oil, energy, strategic resources, and geopolitical position" is a "central element of the aggression."
When you factor in that Trump himself told reporters aboard Air Force One that he alerted not Congress but the oil companies before invading the country, it's clear he believes—as this fake Wikipedia entry underscores—that he is calling the shots and that the sovereignty of the Venezuelan people matters nothing to him at all.
For her part, Delcy Rodriguez was not having it.
And neither was anyone else.
Trump's narcissism knows no bounds.
