Joe Biden’s mental ability is a campaign issue that can’t be ignored

He might be riding high in the polls, but Joe Biden’s mental acuity increasingly is an issue in the election campaign, and growling at reporters who ask about it is no way to alleviate voter concerns.

Asked during an event with the National Associations of Black and Hispanic Journalists if he had “taken a cognitive test,” Biden snapped.

“No, I haven’t taken a test! Why the hell would I take a test? C’mon, man!”

Frowning and irritated, he paused before ripping into the reporter, Errol Barnett of CBS News.

“That’s like saying you, before you got on this program, if you take a test where you’re taking cocaine or not, what do you think? Huh? Are you a junkie?” said Biden in an interview to be streamed Thursday.

Ouch. Barnett had hit a nerve, and Biden’s flash of anger was a reminder of his interview with black man in May, radio host Charlamagne tha God, when Biden blurted out the ruinous line that if you vote for Trump, “you ain’t black.”

This time, Biden’s startling go-to defense was to accuse a black man of being a junkie.

Oprah labeled a ‘fraud’ for calling out ‘white privilege’ since she’s so rich

Twitter critics have a billion-dollar bone to pick with Oprah Winfrey.

The 66-year-old media mogul has been labeled a hypocritical “fraud” following the latest installment of her Apple TV+ series, “The Oprah Conversation,” featuring former NFL star and race activist Emmanuel Acho.

Acho, 29, who also hosts the web series “Uncomfortable Conversations With a Black Man,” joined Winfrey for a two-part episode, which included a segment inviting non-black viewers to ask difficult questions about racism and white privilege.

“Not all white people have power,” said one guest. “There’s plenty of poor, working-class white people. But I think that when we group all of white people together and we don’t recognize the fact that there’s a lot of white people that struggle, and it’s a different struggle as you mentioned because they’re not streaming upstream let’s call it …”

They continued, “I think that if we’re gonna come together and really attack racism and the inequities that are in this country and are in this world, that it’s important not to group all white people.”

Winfrey responded, “There are white people who are not as powerful as the system of white people — the caste system that’s been put in place. But they still, no matter where they are on the rung or ladder of success, they still have their whiteness.”

The veteran broadcaster also said white people have a “leg up.”

“You still have your whiteness. That’s what the term ‘white privilege’ is. It means that whiteness still gives you an advantage, no matter,” she said.

Winfrey’s current net worth stands at $2.6 billion, according to Forbes, and conservative pundits were quick to weaponize that fact on Twitter following her show.

“And now why is Oprah, maybe the richest black woman in the world, trying to shame white people as privileged? Miss Winfrey, you are the personification of WHITE PRIVILEGE!,” said Irene Armendariz-Jackson, a Republican congressional candidate from Texas.

Said columnist Wayne Depree, “Billionaire Oprah is now shaming white people for all their ‘easy success’ in life.”

Conservative media head Todd Starnes said, “I pray for the day that America becomes a nation where someone like Oprah will be able to become a billionaire.”

Sen. Ted Cruz called the discussion “utter, racist BS.”

2A activist JT Lewis asked, “How did Oprah make 2.6 billion dollars if America is so racist?”

Representatives for Winfrey have not returned The Post’s request for comment.

Despite her billions, it was announced in July that the monthly print edition of “O” Magazine would come to an end after a 20-year run on newsstands, as a result of poor sales following the onset of the coronavirus pandemic.

Chassidishe Family of Waterpark Drowning Sues Summer Belz Camp for Negligence

Nearly a year to the day after his nine year old son drowned at a waterpark while on a camp trip, a Brooklyn man has filed a lawsuit charging Camp Bnei Belz with negligence.

Hersch Meilich Grossman was pronounced dead shortly after being pulled from a pool at Sahara Sam’s Indoor Outdoor Water Park in West Berlin, New Jersey last July. Grossman was the grandson of Rabbi Osher Eckstein, the Belzer dayan of Borough Park, and had been submerged at the bottom of the five foot deep pool for an unknown amount of time when he was discovered as the children were preparing to go home.

The lawsuit was filed on August 3rd in Brooklyn Supreme Court and alleged that Camp Bnei Belz failed to provide adequate training, staffing and supervision for the trip. It also charged that Grossman “suffered severe conscious pain and suffering and fear of impending death.”

Attorney Alan Shapey, who is representing the child’s father, Moses Grossman, told the New York Post (https://bit.ly/3i1guEy) that there were 300 children from Camp Bnei Belz on the trip. According to Shapey, while the camp brought numerous counselors on the trip, it was unclear what they were doing when they should have been supervising the pool. Shapey also noted that Sahara Sam’s had only one lifeguard stationed at the pool where Grossman drowned and that legal action against its owner, Apex Parks Group, would be forthcoming as soon as the company resolves a bankruptcy issue.

Covering an area of 68,000 square feet, Sahara Sam’s has surfing simulators, indoor and outdoor pools, water rides and slides. Several hundred children from multiple Brooklyn camps had been enjoying a joint trip to the waterpark just prior to the onset of the Nine Days when the drowning occurred. No criminal charges were ever filed in the incident which was ruled accidental by local authorities.

“It’s a terrible tragedy for the family,” said Shapey, adding, “How do you get over the loss of your son?”

'Follow the rules! You'll spare yourself from suffering'

Rafi Perlshtein

Media consultant Rafi Perlshtein tested positive for coronavirus and spoke about it in a Twitter post on Tuesday, in an attempt to influence the public and explain the importance of the guidelines of the Ministry of Health.

“I just received a positive diagnosis of coronavirus. I know where I got infected, I unfortunately stumbled into a place with irresponsible people with zero adherence to the rules and I was there one minute too long," Perlshtein wrote.

“It is a cursed virus, the fever does not go down, the body feels like it fell apart and the head hurts like crazy. Follow the rules! You do not understand how much suffering you will spare yourselves from,” he added.

Seven Israelis died from the coronavirus on Tuesday, raising the death toll from the disease to 559.

752 patients are hospitalized. 342 patients are in serious condition, 99 of whom are on ventilators. 146 patients are in moderate condition.

75,825 patients have been diagnosed with the coronavirus since the beginning of the pandemic. 49,829 patients have recovered from the disease, while 25,435 cases remain active

Larry Johnson NFL star accuses Jews of human sacrifice

I really think that we shouldn't call him a liar....

we should actually do what he accuses us of..

we should take this monkey and "shecht" him as a "kapparah" for the Jewish people.. 

Larry Johnson, a former running back who played seven seasons for the Kansas City Chiefs, tweeted multiple times to his more than 147,000 followers over the weekend that a Jewish “cabal” is involved in “Human Trafficking, Sex Trafficking, Pedophilia, Ritualistic Child Torture, Perversion, Human Sacrifice/Murder.”

And on Monday, he showed no signs of apologizing.

Johnson framed one of those tweets as a response to Max Kellerman, the Jewish co-host of ESPN’s “First Take” show, who said on the air recently that “Jews do not have a plan for world domination.”

Parents Of Child Who Took His Own Life Say Social Isolation Contributed

Landon Fuller’s parents believe social isolation due to the coronavirus pandemic contributed to the suicidal thoughts leading to his death.

“I think the big question we all have is why, and we will never know the reason why,” said his mother. “The only thing that I was able to find was in his journal was that he had wrote that he was going mad from staying at home all the time and that he just wanted to be able to go to school and play outside with his friends. So that was the only thing that I can imagine what was going through his head at that time. If I had read that before, I wouldn’t have thought that he was planning on taking his own life because I think we’re all feeling a little crazy right now.”

The Fullers have taken the opportunity to urge parents to talk to their children about their feelings — even if they seem fine. 

“I hope his story can at least save at least one life. If so, then his death wasn’t in vain,” Katrina said. Landon is one of many casualties of the psychological toll taken by the global pandemic.

Are Aliens Trying To Signal Earth? A Scientist Thinks So

So "Aliens" are trying to talk to us.... I'm telling you guys.. I'm in the wrong business..

Avi Loeb, a "Theoretical physicist" who works for the Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics, thinks that "it's worth contemplating and checking" whether aliens are trying to signal us ....

I'm sure that this Loeb character is laughing all the way to the bank, knowing that he can come up with the most outrageous preposterous statements and will still get paid for it.... Who is ever going to prove him wrong?

I'm wondering ...   The alien is really making an effort to "signal" us... the guy is sitting in a capsule 14,000 light-years away, munching on sunflower seeds, sending signals ... while I'm having a hard time trying to reach a neighbor down the block..... It could be that the alien is a woman who wants to be a man and needs to know which bathroom to use. I can't help wondering if he is Jewish, because if he is not .. we don't need another anti-Semite..... 

... Do you think he reads DIN? 

Scientists have traced mysterious radio signals detected on Earth to a dead star within our Milky Way galaxy.

The millisecond-long burst of radiation was emitted by a magnestar — a type of star with an extremely powerful magnetic field — roughly 14,000 light-years away, according to a study.

Known as fast radio bursts (FRBs), signals such as these have baffled scientists for years and typically originate from far beyond the Milky Way.

Their origins are unknown. Some think the energetic waves are the result of cosmic explosions, while others have controversially suggested they’re signals sent by aliens.

When Do We Get A Vaccine for Dems’ COVID lies

Beware of three widely circulating coronavirus lies — and the partisan motives behind them. These lies are dangerous to our children and hinder our communities’ ability to cope with this virus.

Lie No. 1: “The United States’ response stands out as among the worst of any country.” House Majority Whip James Clyburn leveled that charge as he kicked off a hearing into this virus Friday.

Yet a staggering 183,639 Europeans have died from the virus as of Monday. Deaths per capita have been far higher in Britain, Spain and Italy than in the United States, according to Johns Hopkins University researchers. After a lull, cases are spiking in several European countries.

That hasn’t stopped New York Times columnist Paul Krugman from asking: “Why Can’t Trump’s America Be Like Italy?” Is he crazy? A patient with coronavirus has faced three times the risk of dying from it in ­Italy as in America, Johns Hopkins data indicate.

Beirut Explosion 78 killed 4,000 thousands injured so far

At least 78 people were killed and 4,000 people were injured in the massive explosion which shook Beirut Tuesday

Initial reports from Lebanon suggested that the explosion was an accident at a fireworks factory. 

However, officials later stated that the blast was caused by highly explosive materials which had been seized from a ship and stored at the site for years.

Director-General of Lebanon Public Security Abbas Ibrahim said: “The storage area contained highly explosive materials confiscated years ago. To discuss fireworks is laughable.”

The explosive material allegedly contained Sodium nitrate.

The explosion was so massive that its shockwave shattered windows miles away from the blast.
