Pelosi’s election ‘reform’ would make 2020’s chaos the norm

 

Nancy Pelosi wants to turn America into a one-party nation. The House speaker has no qualms about trashing the Constitution to kneecap her Republican opponents. Her bill HR 1, which will be voted on this week, would rig the electoral system to favor Democrats.

HR 1 is being sold as a reform to make voting easier. In truth, it makes cheating easier. The bill eviscerates state voting laws and imposes a set of national rules. For starters, it bans state voter-ID requirements. Anyone can show up on Election Day to vote, registered or not, and simply sign a statement claiming to be a legal voter. 

It also compels states to send out absentee or mail-in ballots universally and to count ballots that arrive by mail as late as 10 days after the election. Say goodbye to Election Night finality. The chaos of election 2020 will become the norm.

Video shows balcony railing collapse that killed 7 college students

 

Seven college students died and four were injured during a tragic incident in Bolivia when a railing collapsed, sending them falling from a fourth-floor balcony.

Wild video of Tuesday’s incident showed a mass of students from the Public University of El Alto packed onto the balcony before the railing gave way.

The tragedy happened in the university’s financial sciences building, as students attempted to enter a lecture hall for an assembly.

The footage, obtained by The Sun, also showed one young woman pushing another near the railing moments before it collapsed.

Bolivian Police general commander Jhonny Aguilera Montecinos on Wednesday said the woman seen in the struggle will be questioned as part of the investigation, local outlets reported.

Montecinos also attributed the cause of death for the victims as being due to “multiple trauma.”

“We regret the tragedy that occurred at the Public University of #ElAlto (UPEA), where there were several deaths and injuries,” Bolivian President Luis Arce wrote on Twitter.

“Our deepest condolences to the people of El Alto and to the suffering families. We await the prompt clarification of the facts.”

David Mintz, Who Invented Tofutti As A Dairy Substitute For Kosher Meals, Has Died

 David Mintz, who invented the once-popular Tofutti dairy substitute out of a desire to cater to observant Jews who could not mix meat and milk, has died.

His death at 89 on Feb. 24 was first reported by COLlive, an Orthodox news site that covers the Chabad-Lubavitch community. Mintz had a relationship with Rabbi Menachem Mendel Schneerson, the famed leader of the Hasidic movement, and sought his advice before opening his businesses, the site reported.

No cause of death was given.

Shulem Weiss Suffers Stroke – Just Two Months After Commuted By President Trump

 

Sholom Weiss in center

Shulem (Sholam) Weiss, who just two months ago had his prison sentence commuted by outgoing President Trump, suffered a stroke on Tuesday night.

Sources say that Weiss suffered the stroke while at his Monsey home, and was rushed by Hatzolah to the hospital where is being treated for the stroke, which appears to be serious.

As Din had reported, former President Trump commuted the sentence of Shalom Weiss the night before he left the Whitehouse. He had already served over 18 years and paid substantial restitution of what is believed to have been the longest-ever white-collar prison sentence: A whopping 835 years.

Trump said he commuted his sentence because he is 66 years old and suffers from chronic health conditions.

Please say Tehillim for Sholom ben Leah.

Israel Suspects Iran Connection To Massive Mediterranean Oil Spill

 Israeli authorities said Wednesday that a Libyan-owned tanker suspected of smuggling oil from Iran to Syria was responsible for spilling tons of crude into the eastern Mediterranean last month, causing one of Israel’s worst environmental disasters.

Over 90% of Israel’s 195 kilometer (120-mile) Mediterranean coastline was covered in more than 1,000 tons of black tar, the result of the mysterious oil spill in international waters.

The ecological disaster, one of the worst in the country’s history, has caused extensive damage and forced the closure of beaches and a ban on the sale of seafood from the Mediterranean.

Environmental Protection Minister Gila Gamliel said the Panamanian-flagged “pirate ship owned by a Libyan company” — identified as the “Emerald” — filled its stores with oil in the Persian Gulf, then sailed with its transmitters off toward the coast of Syria.

Ministry officials said it is believed to have dumped its oil in the eastern Mediterranean, around 70 kilometers (40 miles) off the coast of Israel, on Feb. 1 or 2.

Biden Senior Adviser: “Cash Payments” For Black Reparations Are Coming — ‘We Won’t Wait For Congress’

 Biden Senior Advisor Cedric Richmond just announced a push for Black reparations saying, “we are going to start acting now.” Richmond told “Axios on HBO” that the Biden administration won’t wait for Congress to act. Last March, Biden said “cash payments” for reparations should be looked into (see video below).

Richmond mentioned free college tuition at historically Black colleges and universities as a part of reparations:

“If you start talking about free college tuition to and you start talking about free community college in Title I and all of those things, I think that you are well on your way.”

This follows a vote in Virginia last week in which the state House of Delegates voted 61-39 to give reparations in the form of free scholarships to black students.

The big question is why people who never owned slaves are being punished for something that happened long ago. Also, how will the commission decide who pays and how much they pay?

Not all people of African heritage are onboard with the idea. 

Black conservatives like Larry Elder and Herschel Walker denounced the effort by the Biden administration. Elder made a good point when he said, “Figuring out who owes what is going to be a hell of an achievement.”

Candace Owens spoke out on reparations in 2019 during testimony before the House Committee on Hate Crimes and White Nationalism. She’s against it. 

Instagram celebrity Judith Nwandu interviewed Joe Biden during a campaign stop. He pandered to the black voter by saying he believes it’s a good idea to study whether “cash payments” should be given to blacks for slavery reparations.

As liberals attempt to push the idea of reparations for black Americans, most Americans are smart enough to see through their scheme to use taxpayer dollars as a way to gain votes from them in the upcoming 2020 election.

A Fox News poll in April found that 60 percent of Americans oppose paying cash reparations to descendants of slaves, while just 32 percent support it. A Rasmussen poll in the same month found that just 21 percent of likely voters think taxpayers should pay reparations to black Americans who can prove they are descended from slaves.

Black Americans have taken part in a massive awakening since President Trump was elected in 2016. Trump has done what no other Republican before him had the courage to do, he’s pulled back the curtain on the self-serving Democrats and exposed the dirty tactics they’ve employed for decades to convince minorities to support them at the polls.

Orthodox rabbis today 100 times more stringent than Maimonides

 

Today’s Orthodox rabbinical courts are 100 times more stringent than the venerated sage Maimonides was regarding conversions to Judaism, a former minister who has proposed a compromise reform on Israel’s conversion laws charged Wednesday, blaming the ultra-Orthodox parties for this week’s High Court ruling recognizing Reform and Conservative conversions.

Monday’s High Court ruling determined that people who convert to Judaism in Israel through the Reform and Conservative movements must be recognized as Jews for the purpose of the Law of Return, and are thus entitled to Israeli citizenship. The bombshell decision shattered the longstanding Orthodox monopoly on officially recognized conversions in Israel.

Moshe Nissim, a veteran lawmaker and minister, was tasked by Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in 2017 with heading a special government committee that proposed an overhaul of the conversion system in Israel, which would have removed it from the control of the ultra-Orthodox-dominated Rabbinate and establish a new state-run Orthodox authority instead.

But the 2018 proposal was never adopted by the government due to ultra-Orthodox and national religious opposition.

Charedi party likens Reform and Conservative converts to dogs with kippot

 

United Torah Judaism, an ultra-Orthodox party, released an election campaign video Tuesday night that seemingly compares people who convert to Judaism through non-Orthodox denominations to dogs wearing kippot.

The video, published online, drew condemnation from opposition leader MK Yair Lapid, who said that with this message, UTJ had joined the ranks of anti-Semites who often compare Jews to dogs.

The campaign video was released after the High Court of Justice ruled earlier this week that Reform and Conservative conversions to Judaism conducted in Israel would be recognized for citizenship purposes. The decision, which dents the Orthodox monopoly on religion in Israel, was widely condemned by ultra-Orthodox lawmakers, who vowed to pass a law to overturn it.

In the video, a series of photos were shown featuring dogs wearing the traditional Jewish kippa on their heads and wrapped in a talit, or prayer shawl. The images were apparently drawn from so-called Bark Mitzvah events held by some US Reform and Conservative Jews for their pet dogs.

As the images paraded on the screen, a narrator declared, “In the High Court of Justice, this is a Jew” while joking of one dog that “his grandfather was a rabbi, of course he is Jewish!”

The video ended with the message that only the UTJ party “will protect your Judaism, that of your children, and your grandchildren” and the campaign slogan “First of all the Jews.”
