Liberals Going Absolutely Insane to protect Ruth Bader Ginsburg’s seat
The mouth-frothing rage of Democrats over the possible filling of Ruth Bader Ginsburg’s seat on the Supreme Court before Inauguration Day is shocking, but predictable, after the “Summer of Love” we’ve endured.
Now they’re threatening to “burn it all down” if Republicans fill the vacancy soon.
Hysterical RBG cultists holding vigil in Washington on Saturday night warned of a “civil war.”
Threats to kill Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell flooded Twitter, and dozens of police had to guard his Kentucky home as protesters descended.
It wasn’t just random psychopaths on social media threatening to “storm the White House and burn it to the f–king ground.”
High-profile liberals issued dire threats on Twitter.
“You dare try and replace her right now and there will be a war,” tweeted Hollywood actor Russ Tamblyn.
“F–k no. Burn it all down,” wrote parenting-guide author Aaron Gouveia.
“If you can’t shut it down, burn it down,” wrote Scott Ross, a member of the Wisconsin Ethics Commission.
“Burn Congress down before letting Trump try to appoint anyone to SCOTUS,” wrote Emmett Macfarlane, an associate professor at Canada’s University of Waterloo.
“If McConnell jams someone through, which he will, there will be riots,” warned Washington Post freelancer Laura Bassett, “more, bigger riots.”
Yes, because there already are riots, arson, looting, assaults, intimidation and even murder from degenerate leftists using violence to get their own way.
Charedim seek to hold ‘protests’ Sunday night .... A Way to Evade Lockdown
Channel 12 news reported that multiple requests had been filed for protests in Haredi towns just as the holiday ends — including for some 400 buses coming to Jerusalem.
Though officials believe some of the requests are legitimate, they fear many are simply cover for travel not limited by the restrictions of the lockdown set to take effect at 2 p.m. Friday, the report said.
It is traditional to spend the Rosh Hashanah holiday with family, and for religious Jews this means returning home only when allowed to drive at the end of the two-day holiday. But this year will see the new lockdown begin on Rosh Hashanah eve precisely to prevent family gatherings that could spread infections.
Authorities have warned Israelis against traveling to their relatives ahead of the beginning of the lockdown, saying they could be forced to remain there for the duration of the closure, currently set to last at least three weeks.
According to Channel 12, police officials believe the mass requests to approve protests — which are exempt from restrictions — are simply a way for rule breakers to get back home at the end of the holiday.
But police also told the network they could not prevent the mass travel from taking place, as they had no proof the requests were illegitimate.
Officials said requests to approve protests against the closure were made in Bnei Brak, Jerusalem, Elad, Modiin Illit and Beitar Illit, among others.
They expect some protests to take place, but believe the volume of requests to be far higher than the demonstrations that will actually be held, the report said.
Though the pandemic is now widespread throughout the country, for many weeks this summer, infections were largely focused in ultra-Orthodox and Arab towns, apparently a result both of less stringent adherence to health regulations as well as the more crowded conditions that characterize life in those towns.
Recurrent cases of weddings and other mass celebrations by ultra-Orthodox Israelis that failed to adhere to virus regulations have elicited public anger over the past months.

Dear Eli,
KeyBank sues Kiryas Joel religious charity in $950K credit card chargeback scheme
KeyBank has sued a Hudson Valley religious charity and a co-founder for allegedly running a $950,000 credit card chargeback scheme.
KeyBank of Cleveland sued Mordechai Gold and BHMD BY on Chevron Inc., of Kiryas Joel, Orange County, Dec. 16 in White Plains federal court.
“KeyBank seeks to prevent the fraudulent transfer or dissipation of assets, including those assets that they have already tried to put beyond the reach of KeyBank,” the lawsuit states.
Gold responded in a court filing that the allegations are a “complete fabrication.”
The bank “has attempted to dress up its contract claim as being an elaborate fraud involving over 40 conspirators,” he stated, “yet KeyBank has proffered no evidence of fraud.”
Gold, 26, Yoel Shtosel and Joel Fekete set up BHMD BY on Chevron in 2015 to establish a place of worship, Bnai Yisroel, on Chevron Road, according to the incorporation papers, and to “support the spiritual needs of the community with providing free loans and to support the religious, intellectual, moral and social welfare among them.”
Shtosel and Fekete are not named in the complaint.

Scientists say birds survived asteroid that hit Earth 66 million years ago because their BEAKS allowed them to pluck seeds and nuts
Well now that I know how birds survived I can finally relax...I was so anxious wondering how pigeons, that we call in Beit Shemesh "flying rats," that don't stop crapping on my mirpeset, survived?....
The "scientists" say that the dinosaurs were wiped out ... I'm thrilled, all I need now is dinosaurs.
Anyway the "scientists" say that this asteroid hit earth 66 million years ago.... I say it was 62 million years ago ...can I get a multi million dollar grant so that I can do my research?
What a great profession ....
Paleontologists believe birds were able to survive the Cretaceous–Paleogene extinction event because their beaks allowed them to pluck seeds and nuts from destroyed forests.
Around 66 million years ago, a giant asteroid struck what is now known as Mexico's Yucatan Peninsula, causing the sudden extinction of more than 75 percent of the Earth's plant and animal species.
Scientist who spoke with Smithsonian Magazine say that debris from the asteroid 'turned the air into an oven and sparked forest fires across the world' which devastated the environment. A prolonged impact winter followed, in which three-quarters of all species - including dinosaurs - were wiped out.
The event is known as the 'K-Pg boundary', as it marked the end of the Cretaceous period and the beginning of the Paleogene period.
But experts have long been baffled as to why birds - which are descended from a group of two-legged dinosaurs known as theropods - managed to survive, while dinosaurs did not.
'There has been a lot of discussion about what enabled modern-type birds to survive the K-Pg extinction while other birds groups, non-avian dinosaurs, and even pterosaurs perished,' Royal BC Museum paleontologist, Derek Larson, told Smithsonian Magazine.
During the Cretaceous periods, most birds began to develop beaks and almost all of them lost their teeth. This allowed the animals to begin varying their diets, plucking up hard foods such as seeds and nuts.
It also allowed them to develop 'powerful gizzards' which could process those hardened foods.
Dinosaurs, meanwhile, continued to feast primarily on vegetation, which did not serve them well when the asteroid hit.
It's now theorized that beaked birds managed to survive the K-Pg boundary, 'by feeding on the seeds of the destroyed forests and waiting out the decades until vegetation began to return'.
Dinosaurs, however, starved.
'When we think about hypotheses of traits that let birds survive, we need to take into account that it was only a small sliver of diversity that made it to the other side,' University College London anatomist Ryan Felice told the magazine.
Pelosi Wants To Impeach Trump To Stop Supreme Court Nominee Vote After Ruth Bader Ginsberg Dies
House Speaker Nancy Pelosi on Sunday refused to rule out using impeachment to block Senate Republicans from voting on President Trump’s nominee to fill the Supreme Court vacancy caused by Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg’s death.
ABC News anchor George Stephanopoulos raised the possibility with Pelosi that the Democrat-controlled House would move to impeach Trump or Attorney General William Barr to stop the Senate from voting during a lame-duck session.
“Well, we have our options. We have arrows in our quiver that I’m not about to discuss right now, but the fact is we have a big challenge in our country,” Pelosi said on ABC News’ “This Week.”
“This president has threatened to not even accept the results of the election with statements that he and his henchmen have made.”
The California Democrat said that members of Congress “take an oath to protect and defend the Constitution of the United States. We have a responsibility to meet the needs of the American people.”
“So, right now, our main goal — and I think Ruth Bader Ginsburg would want that to be — would be to protect the integrity of the election as we protect the American people from the coronavirus,” Pelosi said as the death toll to the pandemic in the US neared 200,000.
“So, again, when people say, what can I do? You can vote. You can get out the vote, and you can do so as soon as possible,” she said.
Trump said over the weekend that he would nominate someone to fill Ginsburg’s Supreme Court seat this week, and Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell said he would have the GOP-controlled Senate take it up this fall.
Pelosi called the 87-year-old Ginsburg, who died on Friday, a “powerful, brilliant brain on the court.”
“She was brilliant, and she was strategic, and she was successful. And she did more for equality for women in our country than anyone that you can name, and women appreciate that, and I think that you will see women weighing in on all of these decisions, be the elections, confirmations or the rest,” Pelosi said.
