Complete Chaos in Philly As 1,000 BLM Rioters Loot Walmart, Target, Dollar General And More

 A second night of unrest in Philadelphia took place Tuesday night over the police shooting death of a Black man, as 1,000 looters began targeting businesses, police said.

Looters ransacked a Foot Locker, Rite Aid and other retail stores. At least one vehicle was set on fire.

The Philadelphia Police Department warned people to avoid the Port Richmond area where at least 1,000 looters were ransacking businesses that included a Burlington Coat Factory, Target and Dollar General.

Videos posted to social media showed people running out of a Walmart with clothes, electronics and other merchandise. Some showed stores in disarray as looters grabbed various items from shelves and left. One person was seen hauling away what appeared to be a washing machine.

Philly OEM: “The Philadelphia Police Dept urges all residents in the 12, 16, 18, 19, 24, 25, & 26th Districts remain indoors except when necessary. These areas are experiencing demonstrations that have turned violent with looting.”

Rav Amnon Yitzchak Sues Google, Youtube, and Facebook

 

Rav Amnon Yitzchak filed a lawsuit against Facebook, Google, and Youtube, after according to Rav Yitzchak, the three internet companies refused to remove ads that “were slanderous” against him.

In the advertisements, that Rav Yitzchak has requested be removed, it is written, among other things, that he has called on the public to burn the books of Maran Hagaon HaRav Ovadia Yosef. Rabbi Yitzchak’s attorney, Matan Shock, claims that such a statement was never made by Rabbi Yitzchak.

The Judge presiding over the trial, which took place on Tuesday in Rishon LeZion’s Magisterial Court, heard the claims of both sides, that of Rabbi Yitzchak, and those of Google and Facebook. The discussion today revolved around whether or not the internet giants need to remove the ads until the culmination of the proceedings, or whether it was okay to let them be. The judge did not make any ruling regarding the advertisements for the time being. A final ruling is expected in a month’s time.

Trump leads Biden nationally and in Pennsylvania

 President Donald Trump has taken the lead over former Vice President Joe Biden in a new national poll, giving the incumbent his first lead over his Democratic challenger in a month and a half.

According to the new Rasmussen daily tracking poll, President Trump’s approval rating is up sharply, rising to a net positive of six points, with 52% of likely voters approving of Trump’s job performance, compared to 46% who disapprove.

The Rasmussen poll also found Trump enjoying a net swing of four points in his favor in a head-to-head matchup against Biden. While the previous Rasmussen poll showed Biden leading Trump by three points, 49% to 46%, the new poll has Trump leading by a single point, 48% to 47%.

That is the first time since mid-September that Trump has led Biden in a national poll.

In the key battleground state of Pennsylvania, a poll by InsiderAdvantage showed Trump edging out Biden by two points, 48% to 46%, two weeks after the polling agency showed Biden leading Trump by three points, 46% to 43%.

A majority of polls still show Trump trailing nationally and in most battleground states, however, with the RealClearPolitics moving average of national polling showing Biden up by 7.8 points, 50.8% to 43.0%. That’s down from a peak of 10.3 points, reached on October 11th when Biden led with an average of 52.1% to Trump’s 41.8%.

In Pennsylvania, Biden’s lead in the RCP average of polls has fallen from 7.3 points on October 12th to 4.5 points.

Study: Coronavirus antibodies fade rapidly after infection

 

A new study by a team of researchers at the Imperial College London has found that antibodies developed following coronavirus infections disappear within a matter of weeks.

According to the REACT-2 study, antibody positivity fell by 26% between June and September.

While about 6% of those tested in July had detectable levels of coronavirus antibodies, only 4.4% had detectable levels of antibodies in September.

One of the researchers, Professor Helen Ward, said the study suggests that immunity “is waning quite rapidly.”

“We're only three months after our first [round of tests] and we're already showing a 26% decline in antibodies," Ward continued, according to a report by the BBC.

The researchers acknowledged that antibodies are just one form of immunity developed by the body.

White blood cells known as lymphocytes, including B cells and T cells, are also central to the human immune system.

Nevertheless, Prof. Wendy Barclay, one of the researchers, suggested that the decline in antibodies also points to a likely decline in overall immunity.

"On the balance of evidence, I would say it would look as if immunity declines away at the same rate as antibodies decline away, and that this is an indication of waning immunity."

Other studies have also suggested that antibody levels decline significantly within two to three months after coronavirus infections.

However, they suggest that the decline in antibodies does not imply a decline in long-term immunity, citing the formation of memory T and B cells. An August 2020 study even found that patients who had suffered only mild cases of the virus developed memory T and B cells, suggesting they had developed long-term immunity.

One October, 2020 study Sekine et al. not only found that coronavirus infections elicit functional memory T cells that protect against recurrent episodes, but also suggested that most asymptomatic individuals exposed to the virus had developed T cells.

Professor Paul Elliot, director of the REACT-2 study, said that despite his group’s findings, a vaccine against the coronavirus still could be useful in combatting the pandemic, speculating that it might provide longer-term protection than natural immunity following infections.

"The vaccine response may behave differently to the response to natural infection,” said Elliot.

Studies of the seasonal flu, however, suggest that vaccine immunity tends to wane even more rapidly than natural immunity caused by infection.

A February 2011 study of the 2009 H1N1 flu virus, for example, found that while over half of patients who had been infected with the virus had measurable levels of antibodies six months after being infected, just one third of vaccinated subjects also had.

Rabbi Mosheh Lichtenstein "the wolf in sheep's clothing" condemns Trump calls him "mentally disturbed"

Let me tell you about this foolish naive guy...

Rabbi Moshe and his brother Rabbi Yitzchok Lichtenstein (Rosh Yeshiva  Torah Vodaath) are the children of Rav Aaron Lichtenstein z"l who co-founded Yeshivat Har Etzion. 

Yeshivat Har Etzion, known as "The Gush" is a hesder yeshiva located in Alon Shvut, an Israeli settlement in Gush Etzion outside of the "green line." This is a Yeshiva that combines army service with Yeshiva study in a five-year program ....

But let that not fool you about one of its Roshei Yeshiva, Rabbi Moshe Lichtenstein..

R' Moshe Lichtenstein leans radically to the left and supported the eviction of Jews from Gush Katif ...he constantly attacks Netanyahu for having success in foreign relations and chastising him, telling him to forget foreign relations and concentrate solely on domestic issues ...

Either way, here comes a "respected" frum Rabbi and not only degrades the President of the United States calling him "mentally disturbed" but totally questions frum Jews voting for him...

He mocks that Jews support Trump for moving the US embassy to Yerushalyim stating "here people applaud him for opening an embassy in Jerusalem." 

 But the Rabbi doesn't mention and ignores the fact that the first thing that Trump did when he became president was cut all relations with the Palestinians and close the PA office in Washington. The Rabbi ignores that Trump backed out of the murderous Iran deal and recognized the Golan Heights as part and parcel of the Jewish State. He chooses to ignore that Trump just arranged peace with Israel and 4 Arab hostile countries ...He is basically mocking over 85% of Frum Jews that will vote for Trump...

This Rabbi Moshe is trying hard to stay relevant and is very immature and basically a child who seeks attention and I'll give you an example ...

In November of 2010, Israel was going thru a draught with hardly any rain, and so the Chief Rabbinate declared a day of prayer and fast....

Who would oppose this? And why would someone oppose this?

Rabbi Moshe Lichtenstein opposed this and was overruled by his own Yeshivah ....that supported the ruling of the Rabbinate ...

Rabbi Moshe Lichtenstein asked that his "dissenting" opinion be published, which is actually against halacha... a Bais Din doesn't have the rules of a secular court that publishes opinions of dissention, a Bais Din publishes only on how they finally ruled..at any rate they gave him permission to publish his childish psak..

What was his reasoning for his ruling .....?

"In my view, of fasting for rain nowadays: it is ludicrous to fast for rain while the sprinklers at the yeshiva, at the homes of its rabbis, of local residents, and of public gardens-here and everywhere else-operate as usual. How can we fast over a dearth of rain when we continue to water our ornamental garden? "

Did you guys read that? Do you believe it? 

He actually included this ludicrous bizarre paragraph in support for his opposing view ... 

He is against prayers for rain because today we have "sprinklers!" His twisted premise is because his yeshiva and some rabbis want to water their 2 and 1/2 foot garden, with sprinklers, we should not daven for rain ...

Hey Rabbi? Why? Aren't you the Rosh Yeshivah? .. why don't you be an example and close the sprinklers?... and because some like your yeshiva and your rabbis openly flaunt the regulations that state that one should not to use sprinklers during a drought we should stop davening for rain? How absurd?

Fasting for rain is not about the sprinklers of your yeshiva and the sprinklers of the home of your rabbis.. it's not about you, rabbi..we are davening for rain for very serious reasons and potential dangerous situations if G-d forbid we don't have rain ..

How about forest fires that not only destroy the forests and vegetation but can destroy total villages ...the forests need rain for it's very survival..there are no "sprinklers" in the forests.. there are many farms in Israel that totally rely on rain and the "sprinklers" cannot possibly do the job.....why don't you ask the farmers that live near the Gaza borders if they need rain? 

and what's wrong with trying to beautify our gardens in Eretz Yisrael?

His entire premise and you can link to his "teshuvah"  is childish and very immature.....written on a 12th grade level ..probably for  Seminary girls that he was teaching ...

But I will now tell you the real reason why he paskened against the prayers and the fast and it's in his very last paragraph and that's where the "dog" is buried .... 

 מעמד הרבנות הראשית. לא ארחיב בכך, ורק אסתפק בקביעה, שמכל מיני סיבות, מעמד הרבנות הראשית רחוק מן המציאות המתוארת בגמרא בתענית שגזירת ריש גלותא חייבה את כלל הציבור ואינני רואה את מעמד הרבנות או את העומדים בראשה מחייבים את הציבור בימינו. הלוואי והמציאות היתה אחרת, אך היא איננה.

"I will not expand on this, but merely assert that for all sorts of reasons the status of the Chief Rabbinate is very far from the reality described in the gemara in Ta’anit in which the decree of the exilarch obligated the entire community. I do not view the status of the Chief Rabbinate or its heads as being binding on the community nowadays. I wish the situation were different, but it is not."

Being the radical leftist that he is, he only ruled against it because the Chief Rabbinate ruled for it ...

He is a childish immature, has-been, irrelevant attention seeker and should be totally ignored..... 

כל הפוסל, במימו פוסל

 In Brisk (he thinks he is a Brisker) they would question whether something is a "cheftzeh" (an object) or is it a "gavreh" (on the person itself)

There is no question ..... he is not a "gavreh" .. the question I have is he even a "cheftzeh?"

Senate Confirms Amy Coney Barret As Supreme Court Justice

 

The oath-taking ceremony later at the White House was inspiring.  Having Justice Thomas administer the oath was political brilliance. The most senior Supreme Court Justice, a black man; the newest Justice, a woman; and the President in the middle.

Overpowering Democratic opposition, Senate Republicans voted on Monday night to confirm Amy Coney Barrett to the Supreme Court in a move that will make the 7th Circuit Court of Appeals judge and Notre Dame law professor the third appointment to the high court by President Trump, solidifying his administration’s legacy even further just a week before Election Day as he seeks a second term. The move will likely solidify a conservative court majority for years to come.

Barrett was sworn in by Justice Clarence Thomas at the White House on Monday night.

Trump’s choice to fill the vacancy of the late liberal icon Ruth Bader Ginsburg potentially opens a new era of rulings on abortion, the Affordable Care Act and even a potential dispute over his own election. Democrats are unable to stop Monday’s outcome, Trump’s third justice to the court, as Republicans race to reshape the judiciary.

Barrett is 48, and her confirmation will solidify the court’s rightward tilt.

Vice President Mike Pence’s office said Monday he would not preside at the Senate session unless his tie-breaking vote was needed after Democrats asked him to stay away when his aides tested positive for COVID-19. The vote was 52-48, and Pence’s vote was not necessary.

Sen. Susan Collins, R-Maine, was the only Republican to vote against Barrett after expressing objections to moving a Supreme Court nomination before an election after Republicans blocked Obama nominee Merrick Garland ahead of the 2016 election. Sen. Lisa Murkowski, R-Alaska, has also expressed the same concerns as Collins and voted against a procedural motion to advance Barrett’s nomination on Sunday, but she voted for the nominee Monday after saying she would not hold her process objections against Barrett.

All 45 Democrats and two independents who caucus with the Democrats voted against Barrett’s confirmation.
