Even if Mueller presents one hell of a report ... It Will Amount To a Hill OF Beans!!! 💩
For many Robert Mueller watchers, the air these days is electric. People sense the big shoes are about to drop.
Donald Trump has submitted his written answers to Mueller’s questions.
Paul Manafort has entered a plea agreement, but then continued to lie—at least according to Mueller.
Jerome Corsi,fringe-right author and personality, is vowing to go to jail for life rather than sign on to Mueller’s version of events.
Roger Stone is expecting to be indicted for something.
So is Donald Trump Jr.
And, most significant of all to those looking for a big payoff, Michael Cohen has pleaded guilty to lying to Congress about the timeline of a deal he was trying to make to construct a 100-story Trump-branded tower in Moscow. It turns out that the deal exploration continued past the time Trump had secured the Republican nomination, and Cohen and his associate Felix Sater, a real-estate promoter and one-time racketeer, had even discussed giving Vladimir Putin a $50 million penthouse in the building. “This is it,” people are saying. “This is the big one!”
We see the familiar cycle of hype, and there’s no use fighting it, but, once heart rates have slowed, the same old question remains:
so what?

The blog’s stated purpose: "To uncover crimes, misdeeds and abuses within segments of the Jewish community in the hopes of effectuating change."
In an exclusive interview, Globus told the I-Team she had two separate focuses:
"One was on the ultra-Orthodox community, and the money -- where it was coming and going? And I was focusing on sexual abuse. I think there is a need to hold myself and others within that religious community accountable."

DANGEROUS Rebbetzin Temi Kamenetsky leads a conference call of FRUM ANTI-VAXX LOONIES giving them CHIZUK ??
by Mordechai Ovitz
Yesterday, Rebbetzin Temi Kamenetsky (wife of Rabbi Shmuel Kamenetsky) led a conference call of frum antivax loonies with the purpose of giving them chizuk to stay strong against reality. Below is a surreptitious recording of the call.
Rebbetzin Kamenetsky said such crazy, evil $%@# that I could not resist transcribing it. "Merck is Amalek!"
" Pharmaceutical companies are run by organized crime and killed a doctor who invented a cure for cancer!"
"Don't debate them (the vaxxers)"
"Don't debate them (the vaxxers)"
UNREAL!!!!!
Here's what I transcribed:... (partially Transcribed ..... You must listen to this crazy conversation in total with these crazed Yentas!)

New York Times Messes With Rabbi Bender ...
![]() |
| Rabbi Bender with Betsy DeVos Secretary of Education |
On Monday morning, the New York Times posted an article with the headline Do Children Get a Subpar Education in Yeshivas?
Among their most urgent criticisms, highlighted in the first paragraph, was that there are students yeshiva students who “have not been taught that dinosaurs once roamed Earth.”
The article was another grossly unfair New York Times attack on yeshivas and the frum way of life. (On Sunday, in honor of Chanukah the Times ran an op-ed with the title The Hypocrisy of Hanukkah!)
But in this instance the Times was even worse than usual, because it chose to illustrate its article on subpar yeshiva education with a photograph of Yeshiva Darchei Torah.
That prompted this strongly worded response from Rabbi Yaakov Bender, the Rosh Hayeshiva of Yeshiva Darchei Torah, who stood up not only for his yeshiva but for our yeshiva system.
Here is Rabbi Bender’s statement:

"13 Collection Boxes"
There were 13 Collection boxes, called "shofaros" because the shape of the box resembled somewhat of a shofar, in the Temple.
תקלין חדתין (New Shekalim) was written on one collection box, these were coins that people offered as "machtzis ha'shekel."
תקלין עתיקין (Old Shekalim) was written on another collection box, these coins were the "machtzis ha'shekel" that people offered the year before but for some reason were late in their donations.
קנין was written on another box, these coins used to buy mature birds.
גוזלי עולה was written on an other one, these coins were used to buy young birds.
עצים ... this box was used for the coins that went toward buying wood for the alter.
לבונה this box contained coins that were used to buy the "korban levoineh"
זהב לכפרת this box contained gold used for utensils ..
The remaining six were for donative offerings.
Why was it necessary to have six boxes for donative offerings?
The rabbis differ on the reason ...
R' Chizkeyeh suggests that these boxes were designated for the six paternal houses of the kohanim.
The kohanim were divided into 24 groups called "mishmarois" or "watchers," each of which served in the Temple for a week at a time on a rotating basis. Each mishmar, in turn, was divided into 6 batei avos, paternal houses, one for each day of the week, besides Shabbos, when all would serve together.
R' Yochanan on the other hand, postulates that they needed 6 different boxes because if all coins were all placed in one box, the coins would get rusty.

The Media Loves Dead Republicans
Mainstream media members “don’t treat [Republicans] fairly in life” and only “embrace” them “in death,” Fox News host Laura Ingraham noted Monday night on “The Ingraham Angle” as she analyzed the past and present media coverage of the late George H.W. Bush.
Mainstream media members “don’t treat [Republicans] fairly in life” and only “embrace” them “in death,” Fox News host Laura Ingraham noted Monday night on “The Ingraham Angle” as she analyzed the past and present media coverage of the late George H.W. Bush.
Bush, who served as the nation’s 41st president from 1989 to 1993, died at age 94 in his home in Houston on Friday.
Media members and outlets delivered extensive tributes to Bush as they recounted the extraordinary sacrifices he made to serve his nation as a World War II veteran, a House member, a U.S. ambassador to the United Nations, a CIA director, a vice president, a president — and more.
But it didn’t take too much effort for many in the media to use their glowing tributes of Bush as a stepping stone to criticisms of President Donald Trump.
