DemonRats Are Supporting People with Dementia Running the Government.. From President to Senators

 

Once upon a time we mocked the Soviet Union for its gerontocracy. Aged party leaders, bundled up in overcoats and fur hats to the point of near-unrecognizability, would be wheeled out to sit, immobile, as parades passed or party congresses opened. Their withered, stale leadership was emblematic of the decaying USSR’s withered, stale ideology — and industrial base.

But now the joke’s on us. A leading United States senator, Dianne Feinstein (D-Calif.), can’t seem to remember important things, like her just-taken vote on a judicial nominee and her just-announced retirement. “Did I vote for that?” she asked an aide Wednesday, moments after leaving the chamber.

The day before, the oldest sitting senator announced she wouldn’t seek another term — or her staff did, anyway. Asked about her coming retirement an hour after the statement posted, Feinstein said, “Well, I haven’t made that decision. I haven’t released anything.” A staffer told her she had. As The Post reported, “an incredulous-sounding Feinstein” said, “You put out the statement?” before telling reporters, “I didn’t know they put it out.”

Well, Feinstein is 89. She shouldn’t be expected to remember things too well at that age. But maybe she shouldn’t be expected to serve two more years in the Senate, either.

Muslims Praise Congress for removing Ilhan Omar from Foreign Affairs Committee

 

Accusations of Islamophobia came almost immediately after the U.S. House of Representatives voted earlier this month to remove Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-Minn.) from its Foreign Affairs Committee. The vote followed repeated promises from House Speaker Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.) to remove the congresswoman due to her history of antisemitic and anti-Israel remarks.

Omar took to CNN’s State of the Union show, saying “it is politically motivated, and in some cases, motivated by the fact that many of these members don’t believe a Muslim refugee, an African, should even be in Congress, let alone have the opportunity to serve on the Foreign Affairs Committee.”

If the censure of Omar is Islamophobic, that would be news to several Muslim reform groups that work to combat radical Islamism and praised McCarthy’s decision to remove Omar from the committee.

Asra Q. Nomani, co-founder of the Muslim Reform Movement and a former professor at Georgetown University, told JNS that Omar is “a lieutenant in a dangerous network of leftists and anti-Israel Muslims that I call the ‘Woke Army.’ ”

New York Times Accuses Kiryas Yoel of diverting Millions of Dollars from Disabled Children to their other Moisdois

 

Kiryas Joel, a village north of New York City, has for years run a public school district that was created to serve Hasidic children with disabilities. The district has directed millions of dollars to the community’s private religious schools. https://t.co/cH2Kv9F7kA

Building in Judea and Samaria is the best response to terrorism

 

Foreign ministers of four European countries and Canada joined the US last Tuesday in opposing a decision by the Netanyahu government to regularize the status of nine Israeli towns in Judea and Samaria ("Jewish settler outposts in the occupied West Bank"), and to build some 10,000 more homes ("settler units") over the coming decade.

The foreign ministers said that they "strongly oppose unilateral actions which will only serve to exacerbate tensions between Israelis and Palestinians and undermine efforts to achieve a negotiated two-state solution."

My favorite part of this statement is the term "unilateral." Retroactively denominating and proactively planning homes for Israelis in Judea and Samaria is apparently forbidden unilateral action. And I ask: What does unilateral mean in this context?

Does it mean that without Palestinian or American approval Israel must not move an inch? Does it mean that absent a Palestinian partner for peace who is willing to come to terms with reality – which is that Judea and Samaria are part of the Jewish people's patrimony and that much of this area will become Israeli sovereign territory in any future peace accord – the "Jewish settlement situation" should be frozen?

(This, of course, as opposed to Palestinian settlement activity in Area C of the West Bank which continues at breakneck speed with European funding and support.)

Well, in the eyes of at least some international observers I fear that this is exactly what "unilateral" means. Full stop. Israel has no legitimacy whatsoever over the Green Line, and it should begin dismantling settlements – never mind that it should not arrogantly add to the settlements.

And even more so, I sense that in their eyes, it means that the State of Israel itself is retroactively one big mistaken unilateral action taken by the wayward Jews against the "indigenous" Palestinian people and against a so-called "international consensus."

To all this, I have the following to say: 

Re-establishment of a Jewish homeland in the Land of Israel after two thousand years of dispersion and persecution indeed was a "unilateral" action taken by the Jewish people! 

Jews unilaterally decided to rally around the Zionist banner and reclaim Zion. Over the past 120 years they unilaterally fought their way back into the Land of Israel against Ottoman, British, and Arab opposition.

Missing in Haifa Yulia Zatz

 

A search and rescue effort in Israel's north turned dangerous over Shabbat when a live grenade was discovered near a populated area.

Yulia Zatz, a 44-year-old resident of Kiryat Bialik, vanished from her home on February 15. The Israel Police's rescue units and the Israel Dog Unit (IDU), a nonprofit specializing in locating missing persons, conducted extensive searches for her in the city and the surrounding countryside. The search continued over Shabbat out of fear for her life.

While searching for Yulia, the IDU search dog Maggie, along with her handler, found a live grenade in a field near the city. Police sappers were called to the scene and neutralized the grenade to render the area safe for continued search efforts. At another time during the search, a hostile individual was spotted near the search area and tracked down with the help of the IDU's working dogs.

The searchers used a variety of means to try and locate Yulia, including dogs, drones, bicycles, ATVs, and a proprietary incident management software. Unfortunately, she has not been located, and anyone with information as to her whereabouts is asked to contact the Israel Police at 100 or the Israel Dog Unit at 0544876709.

Suspect in Shooting of Jews in L.A. Was Out on Bail for Gun Charges

 

The suspect who allegedly shot and wounded two Jews near synagogues in L.A. last week was out on bail for charges related to possessing a loaded gun on a public university campus last year.

Jaime Tran, 28, was arrested last week in connection with the shootings, which are being investigated as hate crimes. According to local police, the former dental student, who is now apparently homeless, had a history of making antisemitic statements.

Moreover, he had previously been arrested for a gun-related crime — but was out on bail. The Los Angeles Times reported (emphasis added): 

The arrest Thursday evening of a suspect confirmed fears that the attacks were targeted. Jaime Tran — who authorities say has a history of making antisemitic statements, often specifically about Persian Jews — was taken into custody in connection with the shootings.

 Tran, 28, was charged Friday with federal hate crimes. He admitted to police that he searched for a kosher market on Yelp before the shootings, according to a complaint unsealed in federal court in Los Angeles. If convicted, he faces life without parole in federal prison, prosecutors said. He was caught July 3 carrying a loaded handgun onto the Cal State Long Beach campus, according to the Los Angeles County district attorney’s office. Police got a call about a man with a gun near the engineering school and approached him. Tran surrendered and told officers he was carrying the weapon for protection, according to prosecutors. That case, for which he was out on bail, remains open.

Daniel Russo a "Shoimer Shabbos" Pharmacist Admits selling $ 1 Million Illegal Drugs .. Is it any wonder why our teenagers are over dosing? They have help!

 

This sick criminal is the direct cause of supplying our children with illegal drugs. He was on the frontline as a pharmacist and had a great opportunity to talk to these teenagers of the dangers of taking drugs instead he supplied them with it. Howsick and demented?

A pharmacist in cahoots with crooked doctors admitted to illegally selling about $1 million worth of oxycodone pills out of his Queens drug store, the feds say.

Daniel Russo, 44, of Cedarhurst, LI, copped to conspiracy to distribute and possess with intent to distribute oxycodone, distribution and possession of oxycodone, and filing false personal and corporate tax returns in Brooklyn federal court Friday, according to prosecutors.

“Russo was a drug dealer in a white coat,” Breon Peace, US Attorney for the Eastern District of New York, wrote in a statement.

“He abused his pharmacy license and the trust placed in him by the community to illegally distribute enormous amounts of oxycodone, spreading misery in the community and fueling addiction, all to enrich himself.”

The owner of Russo’s Pharmacy in Far Rockaway conspired with medical professionals and employees to fill fraudulent prescriptions of the addictive drug in exchange for hundreds of thousands of dollars in cash between 2011 and 2014, prosecutors alleged.

Russo then failed to report more than $1 million in earnings, much of which he made from the illicit drug scheme, officials said.

More than a dozen doctors who Russo filed prescriptions for have already been convicted in connection with the oxycodone distribution scheme, according to the Department of Justice.

“At the same time Daniel Russo was illegally peddling oxycodone out of his pharmacy, he was pocketing – and not paying taxes on – income from those sales and others in his business,” said Acting Deputy Assistant Attorney General Goldberg.  

“Everyone is required to pay their fair share of taxes, whether they make their money legitimately or through criminal activity,” the prosecutor said in a statement.

Russo now faces up to 67 years in federal prison, according to the feds.

Israeli Minister Tells Us Ambassador To ‘Mind His Own Business’ On Judicial Reforms

 

Amichai Chikli

Israeli Diaspora Affairs Minister Amichai Chikli rebuked U.S. Ambassador Tom Nides on Sunday, after the American envoy jumped into the debate over Jerusalem’s proposed judicial reform package.

“I say to the American ambassador, slam the breaks on yourself and mind your own business,” said Chikli regarding Nides’s call for the Israeli government to modify its initiative. “You’re not the sovereign here. We’d be happy to debate with you international or security affairs, but respect our democracy,” he added.

“The relationship with the United States is very important, but this intervention by Nides is very problematic,” said Chikli.

Satmar Purchases Yeshiva Torah Temimah Building On Ocean Parkway

 

Yeshiva Torah Temimah, the school that supported Kolko, the sexual pervert, has been  sold to Satmar.

The purchase of the building was revealed at a Motzei Shabbos dinner benefiting the Mosdos of Satmar in Boro Park under the leadership of the Satmar Rebbe of Williamsburg, HaRav Zalman Leib Teitelbaum.

The building being purchased by the chassidus is located on the corner of Ocean Parkway and Ditmas Avenue, and housed Torah Temimah’s Mesivta and Bais Medrash for decades.

Yeshiva Torah Temimah was founded and built by the Rosh Yeshiva, Rabbi Lipa Margolis, in 1958. Rabbi Margolis started off as a bus driver for Yeshiva Torah Vadaas and then graduated to being their star fund raiser. When R' Margolis started his own Yeshivah, he called it Yeshiva Torah Vadaas. The Real Torah Vadaas then took him to Bais Din, and R' Margolis was forced to change the name to Torah Temimmah. 

 The yeshiva grew to prominence between 1980 and 2000. He was Niftar in January 2022. The Rosh Yeshiva, Hagoan HaRav Shlomo Feivel Schustal, left the Yeshiva around 10 years ago, and opened his own Bais Medrash in Lakewood due to the number of Bochrim at the yeshiva growing smaller as the Litvish community in Flatbush declined.

Satmar announced that the name of the building will be “Binyan Lipa Friedman,” who donated $5 Million dollars towards the purchase. Lipa is a son of the famous “Moshe Gabbai” of Satmar.

Torah Temimah still runs a vibrant Yeshiva K’tana and Mesivta in their original building on the same street, located at 555 Ocean Parkway. Sources say that the funds of this building sale will not be going to the current Yeshiva Torah Temimah on Ocean Parkway, but to the other Mosdos of the original Torah Temimah, currently located in Staten Island.

The news is bittersweet for thousands upon thousands of Bochrim (now married with children) who learned in Torah Temimah, and for those who were abused by the Yeshiva's star teacher, Rabbi Kolko who abused any boy that could walk.
