Trump: If Electoral College votes for Biden, I'll leave White House

 


US President Donald Trump said on Thursday that he will leave the White House if the Electoral College votes for Joe Biden, even though it would be a mistake.

The President made the comments during a conversation with reporters after speaking to US troops via video link in honor of the Thanksgiving holiday.

Trump continued to claim there was voter fraud in the recent election, saying "those number are incorrect numbers."

He would not say whether he would attend Biden’s inauguration.

The President also said he plans a trip on Saturday to the state of Georgia, where people are “very disappointed we were robbed.”

He was asked about his plans for his last Thanksgiving in the White House, to which he replied, “I can’t say what’s first or last,” adding it might be the “first one of a second term”.

Speaking to the soldiers before taking reporters’ questions, Trump said delivery of the coronavirus vaccine would begin next week and the week after.

“We are rounding the curve. The vaccines are being delivered – literally it will start next week and the week after, and it will hit the frontline workers and seniors and doctors, nurses… we’re going very quickly,” he said.

RAV KOOK - MYSTICAL DREAMER & LOVER OF ZION

Rav Avraham Yitzchak Hacohen Kook was one of the superstars of the rabbinate during the early part of the twentieth century, revered across the Jewish world for both his erudition and his piety. And yet he was also reviled by a significant group of devout Jews for his enthusiastic cooperation with secular Zionists, and for supporting their aspirations for political control of Eretz Yisrael.

Who was this charismatic rabbi? Why was he such a lightning rod for messianic yearning? And what was the philosophy he espoused that so captivated such a diverse range of followers, but made him a pariah for others?

Using his signature blend of fascinating anecdotes and painstaking research, Rabbi Dunner charts the life of Rav Kook and his milieu, revealing the twists and turns that marked the career of this remarkable spiritual giant whose impact continues to be felt to this day.

Obama defends Vicious Anti-White Semites Rev. Wright and Warnock Who is Running For Georga Senate

Former President Barack Obama in an appearance on "The Breakfast Club" radio show on Wednesday said that attacks by Georgia Sen. Kelly Loeffler against her runoff opponent Raphael Warnock over his connection with Rev. Jeremiah Wright are "crazy stuff" as he defended Wright as a "supremely gifted preacher."

Obama appeared on the popular radio show and podcast to promote his book "A Promised Land," which details much of his presidency, including his 2008 presidential campaign during which his connection to Wright became an issue. Wright has a history of controversial comments, including a sermon in which he said "God damn America" when referencing racial injustice. 

Further, after 9/11 he said that "America’s chickens are coming home to roost" and after Obama's inauguration blamed "them Jews" for his inability to talk to the president, according to NBC, before adding, "[h]e's a politician; I'm a pastor. He's got to do what politicians do."

Obama heaped praise on Wright on Wednesday when asked about his relationship with the pastor by "The Breakfast Club" hosts, who have a reputation for being unafraid to get into hot-button cultural issues – earlier this year they pushed President-elect Joe Biden on race issues during an interview.

8 Arab Families Finally Evicted From Jewish Owned Land in Jerusalem

The Jerusalem District Court ordered the eviction of eight Arab families living in the Shiloah village in eastern Jerusalem.

The court accepted the petition by Ateret Cohanim and ordered the evacuation of the families from the Al-Hawa compound, after it was proven that 100 years ago the land belonged to a Jewish charity that took care of the Yemenite poor of Jerusalem.

The Arab families intend to appeal to the Supreme Court. Mazen Duweck, the father of the family, told Haaretz that "since 2007 we have been with them in court, there is a G-d in heaven and we will not lose with Him. What we can do, we must continue until the last breath."

"Quietly, quietly, under the radar, entire families in Jerusalem are in immediate danger of evacuation," said Peace Now. "In the last week, the court ordered the eviction of 8 families from their homes in the east of the city, even though they legally purchased the land. 45 people could be thrown into the street."

"Ateret Cohanim members filed eviction lawsuits against dozens of families in Al-Hawa on the pretext that 100 years ago the land belonged to a Jewish charity that cared for the Yemenite poor of Jerusalem. Their purpose is clear: to take over the charity and demand in its name the evacuation of families who have lived in the compound for decades without question."

Peace Now the antisemitic organisation is furious: "Hard-working families find themselves in courts, in front of a well-funded association, in long, exhausting and impoverishing proceedings. To this are added threats and harassment by settlers."

According to them, the entire government system is mobilized to assist "settlers": the Custodian General, the law, the registrar, and the police. "There are important national interests that are harmed here: preserving the residents of East Jerusalem and preserving the resolution of the conflict."

The anti-semitic "Peace Now" is asking its supporters to take part in the struggle for the Arab families, and to take part in demonstrations, tours, field information or social media propaganda, in the hope of changing the "sector."

Flynn Free After Being Hounded By the Fake FBI Investigation

President Trump pardoned Michael Flynn, his first national security advisor, who pleaded guilty to lying to the FBI about his contacts with Russian officials — the first of several clemency actions Trump is expected to take before he leaves office on Jan. 20.

“It is my Great Honor to announce that General Michael T. Flynn has been granted a Full Pardon. Congratulations to @GenFlynn and his wonderful family, I know you will now have a truly fantastic Thanksgiving!” Trump tweeted Wednesday.

The president has consistently argued that his 2016 presidential victory was undermined by the FBI’s investigation into whether his campaign colluded with the Kremlin. He is also reportedly weighing pardoning former campaign official Paul Manafort.

Supreme Court Blocks Cuomo From Setting Limits at Shuls

 

The Supreme Court late Wednesday temporarily blocked Gov. Andrew Cuomo from setting capacity limits at houses of worship in certain state-designated coronavirus hot spots.

In a 5-4 decision, the nation’s highest court sided with the Roman Catholic Diocese of Brooklyn and Orthodox Jewish synagogues that sued the governor over the state-imposed caps in areas declared red and orange zones.

“Even in a pandemic, the Constitution cannot be put away and forgotten,” the unsigned opinion said.

“The restrictions at issue here, by effectively barring many from attending religious services, strike at the very heart of the First Amendment’s guarantee of religious liberty.”

The ruling has little impact at this time since the groups that sued are not currently subjected to the attendance limits since they are in the less-restrictive yellow zones.

The houses of worship argued the restrictions, imposed by Cuomo on Oct. 6, violated their religious freedoms under the First Amendment. They also felt they were unfairly facing stricter limitations than essential businesses.

Newly confirmed Justice Amy Coney Barrett cast the deciding assenting vote in favor of the religious groups.

Chief Justice John Roberts joined the three liberal justices in dissenting.

“It is a significant matter to override determinations made by public health officials concerning what is necessary for public safety in the midst of a deadly pandemic,” Roberts wrote.

Young Newly Crowned Sadigere Rebbe Sends His Mother a 48hour Eviction Notice

 

His "holiness" the 24-year-old Sadigere Rebbe sent his mother a lawyers letter notifying her that if she doesn't leave the apartment within 48 hours, he will have her evicted by force...

His chassidim claim that his father, the previous Sadigere Rebbe who died just recently wrote in his will that he wanted her out in the event of his death.

First of all, I don't believe the late Rebbe wanted her evicted and after reading the "tzavah" I found no mention to that effect.... 

If they did find an additional document that this was his wish, then I lost my total respect for him and his chassiddus.

Second of all, I would advise the Rebbetzin to follow Israeli law and according to Israeli law the apartment belongs to both of them unless she relinquished her share in his will, which I doubt happened... and now that the her son wrote her a lawyers letter, she has a right to follow Israeli law. 

Third of all, and I don't want to debate this on this forum, the halacha would also be on her side.

I also hope that this is all not true.... but so far unfortunately from what I heard from the family, it is very much true ..

Life After a Potential Trump Loss & Media Destroys Itself ...Facinating

This video is called "The Rubin Report" and in this segment he interviews Megyn Kelly, now I'm no fan of her but I think in this video she does a great analysis ....


 Dave Rubin of The Rubin Report talks to Megyn Kelly (Host, The Megyn Kelly Show) about the after effects of a Trump loss, the collapsing mainstream media, and if the Democrats will really support Supreme Court packing.

Megyn discusses the likelihood of Trump losing the 2020 election and what will happen to Trump supporters after he exits the stage.

Megyn also addresses the accusations of election fraud and why she thinks any evidence of voter fraud is unlikely. Megyn also discusses the extreme media bias against Trump and why he was not wrong to treat them like an enemy.

Megyn gives her predictions of what the Democratic Party will do under a Joe Biden administration. She also gives her thoughts on the likelihood of the Biden administration to pack the court in response to Amy Coney Barrett being confirmed to the US Supreme Court.

Megyn talks about the loss of faith in the media and Big Tech and how conservatives, moderates, and centrists have few places to go for political news that doesn’t call them a racist for not buying into the woke liberal media identity politics agenda.
