CNN’s Jake Tapper mocks Trump’s Orthodox Jewish lawyer over religion

 By World Israel News Staff

CNN Washington news anchor Jake Tapper fired a mocking tweet Friday at a Jewish lawyer representing former president Donald Trump, insinuating that David Schoen was violating Jewish law for defending Trump.

“Trump attorney David Schoen has left the Senate to observe the Sabbath. At synagogue tomorrow, he will hear the reading from the Torah of: Mishpatim – Rules,” Tapper tweeted, referring with the weekly bible reading in synagogues. Mishpatim is in the Book of Exodus.“Exodus 21:1-24:18 includes: ‘You shall not spread a false report. You shall not join hands with a wicked man to be a malicious witness. You shall not fall in with the many to do evil, nor shall you bear witness in a lawsuit, siding with the many, so as to pervert justice,'” Tapper tweeted, using a standard English translation of the biblical Hebrew.

Tapper, who is also Jewish, appeared to be mocking Schoen, insinuating that the lawyer was violating the Torah by representing the former president at the Senate impeachment trial.

Joel Petlin, an Orthodox Jew who is Superintendent of the Kiryas Joel School District that is home to several ultra-Orthodox schools, noted that Tapper made the tweets as the Sabbath was starting, in violation of the Torah.

“Jake Tapper posted two tweets on the Jewish Sabbath to insult an Orthodox Jewish attorney because he didn’t like his client,” Petlin tweeted. “Using biblical verses to score political points to attack David Schoen isn’t clever, it’s beyond reprehensible. Shame on you Jake.”

Tapper was blasted by other social media users who slammed the CNN reporter for making an issue out of Schoen’s religion.

“One holier than thou Jewish, Jake the snake, Tapper calls out Trump’s (also Jewish) lawyer for what? I thought religion was also one of those 1st Amendment, Bill of Rights, issues! What do you care Tapper what David Schoen’s religious practice is?” tweeted Daniel F. Baranowski.

“Jake Tapper isn’t going to like it when he has to answer to God for mocking David Schoen,” tweeted Tina Summers.

“This is disgraceful. Jake Tapper is lecturing an Orthodox Jew on Judaism – implying that it’s somehow a violation of Jewish law to defend Trump. Tapper, a Jew, uses Judaism to score political points,” tweeted Dan Fined.

Democrats Turning On the ‘lying’ Cuomo over COVID-19 nursing home ‘cover-up’

 

A second Emmy would not be good enough for that performance. Only an Oscar will do. After all, it takes an uncommon actor to pretend to be telling the truth and nothing but the truth when you are telling everything but the truth. 

Gov. Cuomo’s latest bid to tame the cascading waves of criticism over his handling of the nursing home catastrophe was so riddled with falsehoods and misinformation that it’s hard to know what he was thinking. Does he really believe he’s viewed as a trustworthy person whose word is taken at face value in Albany and beyond? 

If so, then he must stop listening to his CNN brother and the people paid to say what he wants to hear. Because there aren’t a lot of buyers for his B.S., even among fellow Democrats, many of whom are in open revolt against him. 

The most obvious takeaway from Monday’s act is that Cuomo still accepts zero responsibility for the 15,000 deaths in nursing homes and similar facilities. His only feint toward self-criticism is that he didn’t get information out fast enough. That “void,” he said “was filed with skepticism, cynicism and conspiracy theories which furthered confusion.” 

This is a tired political trick, insisting the only issue is one of public relations and messaging. In fact, it was Cuomo himself who created the cynicism and conspiracy theories. 

Recall that he labeled all criticism of the nursing home disaster pure “politics” and blamed God, The Post, Donald Trump, federal health officials, nursing home operators, their staffs, grieving families and anybody else — except himself.

12 Pregnant Women in Critical Condition Due To COVID-19 In Israel

 

Due to the spread of the British mutation of COVID-19 in Israel, 12 pregnant women are currently hospitalized in serious condition in different hospitals in Israel. The number came from a report given by National Corona Coordinator Professor Nachman Ash during the Coronavirus Cabinet meeting today.

Ash was responding to a question regarding the dangers of the British Mutation as opposed to the preexisting version of the virus. “It is hard to give an accurate picture without research that has been properly done. I can tell you that according to statistics, we have more seriously ill patients in the age bracket of 40-50-year-olds, and we have 12 pregnant women who are hospitalized in serious condition. It is my opinion that this is due to the mutation, but I can not say 100 percent for certain.”

In Kaplan hospital in Rehovot, a 39-year-old pregnant woman was hospitalized two days ago after having shortness of breath. She was quickly diagnosed with Covid-19 and her situation deteriorated rapidly. She is currently sedated and on a ventilator. due to her deteriorating condition, the medical staff decided to perform an emergency cesarean operation and delivered the mother early in her 34th week.

Another woman, 29-years-old, who also contracted the disease is hospitalized in serious condition, in spite of a slight improvement over the past week. She is in her 13th week of pregnancy.

For Karlin-Stoliner Chassidim Wanting To Attend A Tisch.... Only With A “Green Passport”

 

Karlin-Stoliner chassidim throughout Israel were informed on Motzei Shabbos that whoever attends tefillos or simchos at the chassidus in Givat Zeev is required to bring documentation that he either recovered from the coronavirus or has been fully vaccinated.

The instructions come despite the fact that the Karlin-Stoliner Rebbe, Baruch Hashem, recovered from the coronavirus in October.

The message added that anyone who received the second dose of the vaccine less than a week prior should continue to adhere to regulations and shouldn’t come to the chatzer at all until a week has passed.

The Karlin-Stoliner chassidus was the first one to close its shuls and other gathering places at the beginning of the pandemic and the Rebbe continues to instruct his chassidim to strictly adhere to health regulations.
