Netanyahu Opponent Gidon Saar Hires Anti-Trump Swampers to defeat him

Gideon Saar, currently the most popular anti-Netanyahu candidate, has hired the services of four American strategic consultants, all former Republicans, whose most recent endeavor has been The Lincoln Project, aimed at preventing the re-election of Donald Trump and defeating all the Republican Senators who were running in close races in 2020, Israeli journalist Amit Segal reported Monday.

The four, Steve Schmidt, Stuart Stevens, Reed Galen, and Rick Wilson, used to work for the election campaigns of GW Bush, John McCain, Mitt Romney, and Arnold Schwarzenegger. But on Dec. 7, 2019, they announced in a NY Time op-ed by George Conway, Steve Schmidt, John Weaver, and Rick Wilson, the foundation of the Lincoln Project political action committee. Other co-founders include Jennifer Horn, Ron Steslow, Reed Galen, and Mike Madrid. Stuart Stevens joined the project in May 2020.

The Lincoln Project is probably the deadliest political weapon ever introduced in US politics. Its aim was not to sway fellow Republicans – most of those reacted with disgust to the LP videos. They were aiming at Independents who were jolted by those short and effective messages, which were coming at them with an ever-increasing frequency.

STUNNING HYPOCRISY: Nancy Pelosi Cheers National Guard Troops in DC Today After She Attacked Trump For Sending in National Guard During DC BLM Riots

 

So What changed, Nancy?

The video above  shows how Nancy Pelosi’s views on using National Guard troops against protestors in Washington, DC has taken a full 180 in less than 1 year.

In the first part of the video, Pelosi is shown praising of group National Guard troops on January 13, 2021.

“I hope that the fact that you are here will be a deterrent to those who have come to undermine our Constitution,” says Pelosi to a group of around 20 or so soldiers.

“We want the message to be clear,” Pelosi continues, “that the Capitol, our Democracy, our Constitution are safe because of your patriotism.”

In the second part of the video, taken from Pelosi’s weekly press conference on June 4, 2020, Pelosi discussed a letter that she had sent to President Trump, condemning him for deploying National Guard troops to D.C. during the violent and deadly George Floyd riots.

“I sent a letter to the President expressing concern about the increased militarization and lack of clarity that might increase chaos,” read Pelosi.

“By what authority do these National Guard people come in from other states?” asks Pelosi to President Trump.

“Of course today is a day of great sadness,” Pelosi claims at the end of the video.

Charedi internet use spikes despite traditional opposition

 

The ultra-Orthodox community has always lived as a kind of enclave, separate from the society in which it lived. Its rabbis have long opposed the use of the Internet, but with the outbreak of the coronavirus pandemic, many Haredim have rushed to get Internet to stay updated on the news. 

"Internet use has accelerated during the [coronavirus] crisis and continues to do so," Dr. Gilad Malach told Israel Hayom. Malach is the director of the Israel Democracy Institute's Ultra-Orthodox in Israel Program. 

"Many Haredim came to realize to what degree they were disconnected from the news and society in general, and began using the Internet even without official permission [from the rabbis]."

"They want a closer interaction with the world, especially because of the coronavirus. The rabbis' fight against the Internet is failing, at least at the moment."

Malach stressed that those who have already started using the Internet would not be too quick to give it up. The development has sociological consequences, too. For example, distance learning can be used for school and to  integrate Haredim into the labor market. 

"Access to the Internet may reshape the boundaries of the enclave, and that is why this change is so significant," he said. 

The coronavirus has also aggravated the already strained relationship between the ultra-Orthodox and secular sectors in Israel. Each feels the exact opposite: Haredim think that the government does not take them into account in their coronavirus-related decisions and that the police use excessive force in their communities; secular Israelis feel that Haredi Knesset members have too much decision-making power, making sure no lockdown is instituted in religious neighborhoods and that there is not enough police enforcement when Haredi schools stay open during the lockdowns. 

Meanwhile, the coronavirus is affecting the relationship between American and Israeli religious Jews, as well.

"There used to be a hint of arrogance in the American Hassidic community's treatment of their relatives in Israel. It was part of the common 'the wealthy American uncle will help his Israeli relatives' narrative," says Rabbi Elhanan Poupko, a member of the Rabbinical Council of America and serves as the president of EITAN-The American Israeli Jewish Network. 

"That will never happen again. The balance of power has changed. The pandemic has severely affected the Chassidic community, including financially. It is a great lesson in humility. It is now the uncle from Bnei Brak or Jerusalem who is looking down on his cousin in New York. Israel is in a much better position now, we think," Poupko says. 

Poupko believes a shift is required in the way the Israeli Haredim perceive their brethren in the US. 

"The 'wealthy American uncle' mentality nurtured complacency. There is now a renewed responsibility on Israelis to hear from the other side [Jews in the US] and show genuine interest. This may be an opportunity to change the Israeli public's commitment to their brethren abroad," he says.

On 1st day in office, Biden to Cancel Muslim Travel Ban, Rejoin Disastrous Climate Accord...& Mandate Wearing Masks on Govt Property

 

In his first hours as president, Joe Biden plans to take executive action to roll back some of the most controversial decisions of his predecessor and to address the raging coronavirus pandemic, his incoming chief of staff said Saturday.

The opening salvo would herald a 10-day blitz of executive actions as Biden seeks to act swiftly to redirect the country in the wake of Donald Trump’s presidency without waiting for Congress.

On Wednesday, following his inauguration, Biden will end Trump’s restriction on immigration to the US from some Muslim-majority countries, move to rejoin the Paris climate accord and mandate mask-wearing on federal property and during interstate travel. Those are among roughly a dozen actions Biden will take on his first day in the White House, his incoming chief of staff, Ron Klain, said in a memo to senior staff.

Other actions include extending the pause on student loan payments and actions meant to prevent evictions and foreclosures for those struggling during the pandemic.

“These executive actions will deliver relief to the millions of Americans that are struggling in the face of these crises,” Klain said in the memo. “President-elect Biden will take action — not just to reverse the gravest damages of the Trump administration — but also to start moving our country forward.”

“Full achievement” of Biden’s goals will require Congress to act, Klain said, including the $1.9 trillion virus relief bill he outlined on Thursday. Klain said that Biden would also propose a comprehensive immigration reform bill to lawmakers on his first day in office.

The next day, Thursday, Klain said Biden would sign orders related to the COVID-19 outbreak aimed at reopening schools and businesses and expanding virus testing. The following day, Friday, will see action on providing economic relief to those suffering the economic costs of the pandemic.

In the following week, Klain said, Biden would take additional actions relating to criminal justice reform, climate change and immigration — including a directive to speed the reuniting of families separated at the US-Mexico border under Trump’s policies.

More actions will be added, Klain said, once they clear legal review.

Biden team already holding talks with Iran on US return to nuclear deal

 Officials in the incoming Biden administration have already begun holding quiet talks with Iran on a return to the 2015 nuclear deal, and have updated Israel on those conversations, Channel 12 News reported Saturday.

The network gave no sourcing for the report, and no details on what was allegedly discussed.

US President-elect Joe Biden has indicated his desire to return to the accord, while Israel is pushing for any return to the deal to include fresh limitations on Iran’s ballistic missile program and support for terror and destabilization around the world.

On Wednesday, Walla News reported that Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is assembling a team to strategize for the first talks with the Biden administration on Iran’s nuclear program.

These US Orthodox women bloggers prefer not to be seen, but are very much heard

 Soon after its release, the new cookbook “Dinner Done: Practical Recipes For Your Busy Day” zipped to Amazon’s number one new release in the kosher cooking category and fast sold out in Israel. It’s the paper and ink incarnation of the unique Orthodox Jewish lifestyle site Between Carpools, whose creators have unlocked the riddle of maintaining a strong social media presence while resisting an immodest “look at me” aesthetic.

The brains behind the operation — Leah Schapira, Victoria Dwek, Renee Muller, Esti Waldman, and Shaindy Menzer — don’t just chalk the website and book’s popularity among Orthodox women up to recipes such as Spice It Up Chicken. Or the advice on how to lengthen too-short dresses with vibrant grosgrain ribbons. Or even the step-by-step instructions on how to jumpstart a car.

Clearly they’ve filled a niche; the site has about 90,000 viewers per month and their Instagram account has 37,100 followers — all while keeper their real super mom identities under wraps.

“It’s not about us. It’s about sharing. To our readers we’re like a big sister in your back pocket that you can go to for advice,” said Dwek, a kosher food writer and co-author of six cookbooks.
