DOJ Strategically Timed Political Arrest of Santos To Coincide With Press Conference Detailing Evidence Of Biden Corruption

 



The Department of Justice coincidentally decided to arrest New York GOP Rep. George Santos on money laundering and other charges on Wednesday at the same time House Republicans held a press conference revealing damaging evidence about the Biden family’s corrupt, foreign business ventures.

On Tuesday, the DOJ filed charges against Santos in the Eastern District of New York. While originally under seal, the 13-count indictment unveiled Wednesday morning shows the DOJ charging Santos with “seven counts of wire fraud, three counts of money laundering, one count of theft of public funds, and two counts of making materially false statements to the House of Representatives.”

According to the unsealed indictment, Santos allegedly lied on his 2020 and 2022 House Disclosure forms by overstating his income and assets. Meanwhile, notable Democrats who appear to have lied under penalty of perjury, such as Secretary of State Antony Blinken, have not faced such charges from Biden’s DOJ.

Santos was officially taken into custody Wednesday morning and is expected to appear in court at 1 p.m. EST, according to Fox News.

It’s amazing how the arrest of Santos came at the exact same moment Republicans on the House Oversight Committee held a press conference documenting the Biden family’s overseas business ventures. Announced earlier this week, Wednesday morning’s presser revealed bank records showing how the Bidens and their associates created a network of more than 20 companies and received “at least $10 million … from foreign nationals’ and their related companies.”

According to the records obtained by House Republicans, most of these 20 companies were purportedly LLCs and created when Biden occupied the vice president’s office. The money trafficked to the Bidens came from several different countries, including China and Romania.

“While VP Biden was lecturing Romania on anti-corruption policies, he served as a walking billboard for his son & family to collect money. Hunter & his associates capitalized on a lucrative financial relationship with a Romanian national who was later convicted of corruption,” the House Oversight Committee revealed in a Twitter thread. “The Bidens received over $1 million for the Romania deal, with 16 of the 17 payments made during Biden’s VP term. The money stops flowing from Romania soon after Joe Biden leaves office, establishing a pattern of influence peddling.”

Despite the newsworthiness of House Republicans’ bombshell revelations, regime-approved media outlets seemingly couldn’t be bothered to cover the event. While Fox News took the Oversight Committee’s presser live, networks such as MSNBC, CNN, and even C-SPAN reportedly blacked out livestream coverage of the event.

Santos’ arrest provided a perfect excuse for outlets such as The Washington Post and The New York Times to splash their online front pages Wednesday afternoon with news of the Republican’s criminal charges, conveniently leaving no room for coverage of the Biden family’s newly detailed corruption.


NY Times writer Elizabeth Spiers ripped for dismissing subway fears: ‘Imaginary monsters’

 

A New York Times opinion writer has been ripped for claiming that straphangers scared of “half-naked lunatics” menacing Big Apple subways need therapy for “imaginary monsters.”

Elizabeth Spiers sparked incredulity with her condescending response to the suggestion that a “polite society” is “one where people can safely ride the subway to work or take their children out in public without being accosted & menaced by half-naked lunatics.”

“Hi – New Yorker here,” wrote Spiers, who is also a Democratic pollster and NYU journalism professor.

“I’ve safely ridden the subway for 23 years and my child has never been menaced by a half naked lunatic, but these imaginary monsters in your head are addressable with therapy,” she continued.

Her tweet quickly went viral, seen more than 3 million times by Wednesday — with many questioning how serious she was.

“Not satire …,” one person wrote as others questioned if it was actually “a parody account.”

National Review writer Dan McLaughlin — to whose tweet Spiers had replied — was among those amazed that his critic had escaped seeing anything alarming for so long.

“If you’ve never encountered an alarming lunatic on the subway or its platforms, I question what city you’ve been traveling in,” McLaughlin tweeted.

“And how small your circle of friends must be if you don’t know anybody who’s experienced unhinged people in the subways.”

Others also noted how not seeing something firsthand does not mean it is not there.

“Exactly, Elizabeth! I feel the same way about tornadoes,” one person tweeted sarcastically.

“Everyone complains about them, but they’ve never bothered me. I’ve never even seen one and, frankly, I don’t really believe they exist.”

Ezra Friedlander''s Rashida Tlaib will host anti-Israel event at the Capitol despite Kevin McCarthy’s move to block it

 

Ezra Friedlander's Rep. Rashida Tlaib (D-Mich.) on Wednesday held an event at the Capitol decrying the founding of Israel as a “catastrophe” despite House Speaker Kevin McCarthy’s move to block it

The event, hosted by Tlaib and organized by nine anti-Israel groups, was moved at the last minute to the Senate side of the Capitol complex after McCarthy intervened late Tuesday to reserve the space in the Capitol Visitor Center where Tlaib’s event was initially slated to be held. 

A source familiar with the matter told The Post that Senate committee chairs are responsible for approving rooms used for events.

Tlaib’s event was held in the Senate Health, Education, Labor and Pensions Hearing Room in the Dirksen Senate Office Building, a panel chaired by Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.).

During the event, Tlaib confirmed that Sanders allowed her to use his committee’s room.

Temporary Restraining Order Granted To Orangetown To Prevent Frum Guy who owns Hotel From Housing Migrants

The hotel is owned by a guy named Ephraim Vashovsky who owns Armoni Suites.

Question: Are Frummies now playing a part in flooding Monsey and its surrounding areas with "migrants?"

Did this guy, Vasovsky for a minute think what damage 340 Single males could do to the Monsey community? Or is it all about "The Benjamins?" 

Why do we frum Jews need to be involved in this massive mess? This can only bring more antisemitism, more hate! Let the Goyim deal with this!


 The request was granted by Rockland Supreme Court Judge Christine D'Alessio at the request of Orangetown officials, said Orangetown Supervisor Teresa Kenny during a press conference on Wednesday, May 10. 

Under the order, the hotel's permits and certificate of occupancy do not permit the business to house migrants for up to four months.

The restraining order was sought after town officials found that the Orangeburg hotel -- The Armani Inn & Suites hotel -- was being readied for an influx of migrants with beds and other items used in a "shelter," Kenny said.The hotel owners and Orangetown officials are scheduled to reappear before the judge on Monday, May 15. 

During the press conference, Rockland County Supervisor Ed Day said it wasn't that the county didn't want migrants, it was the illegal way New York City Mayor Eric Adams was handling the issue by announcing he was sending up to 340 migrants by bus to Rockland without contacting any county officials.

He also pointed to the fact that for a hotel to be used as a shelter it has to be approved by the state, which can take time, and has not been done in this case.

A State of Emergency had already been enacted by Day in an effort to prevent the buses from arriving from New York City.

In addition, Day said the Rockland County Sheriff's Office is helping and if a bus does pull up to the hotel with migrants, a deputy will handle the situation by informing them of the restraining order.

Officials with Governor Kathy Hochul's office said she did not back the plan by Adams and had not been informed, Kenny said.

Zionists Will Double Stipends for married yeshiva students


 Fresh details of the upcoming state budget show coalition agreements will pour billions of shekels into the ultra-Orthodox community and education programs with Orthodox messaging.

The fresh revelations came a day after networks reported that some NIS 5 billion ($1.37 billion) of the budget, still under negotiation, will be funneled to meet ultra-Orthodox demands.

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s coalition is made up of his own Likud party and far-right religious and ultra-Orthodox partners that he needs to maintain a majority in the Knesset.

Included in the plans is boosting the monthly stipends for married yeshiva students, who form a major part of the ultra-Orthodox community and rely on the handouts to maintain their families as they spend their days in study rather than working.

According to the Kan public broadcast, Haredi parties are seeking a stipend increase of nearly 50 percent, from NIS 680 ($185) a month to NIS 1,000 ($272).

After it is approved, the increase in stipends will be paid out retroactively to cover all of 2023, Monday reports said. By contrast, some financial benefits for working parents that are to be set in the budget will only come into effect in January 2024, Channel 12 reported.

We're ready for extended campaign

 

Terrorists operating out of the Gaza Strip launched over 100 rockets towards central and southern Israel in the space of one hour Wednesday afternoon.

Rocket launch warning sirens were sounded Wednesday afternoon from the Gaza frontier to as far north as Rishon Letzion, Tel Aviv and Ramat Gan.

Sirens were first reported in Sderot and nearby towns, with sirens reported minutes later in Ashkelon, Ashdod, and Lachish. Half an hour later, sirens were also reported in the Tel Aviv area.

A house in the southern town of Sderot was struck by a rocket. The home was empty at the time and no injuries were reported, though the building was damaged.

In response, Israeli forces bombed Islamic Jihad rocket launchers and mortar positions in the Gaza Strip, an IDF spokesperson said.

"The IDF targeted rocket and mortar shell launch sites belonging to the Islamic Jihad terrorist organization along the Gaza Strip."

"A short while ago, following the identification of activities of terrorist squads adjacent to rocket launching pits, IDF fighter jets targeted rocket and mortar shell launch sites belonging to the Islamic Jihad terrorist organization along the Gaza Strip. Civilians are asked to act according to the special instructions posted on the National Emergency Portal."

Following the rocket attacks, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu spoke to municipal leaders in the south by phone and told them: "We are ready for the possibility of an expanded campaign and harsh strikes against Gaza."

Holocaust Denier Hosted in Ramat Beit Shemesh

 


I have posted about this "rabbi" previously, see links below.
 He is a Holocaust denier and like Abbas the head of the Palestinian Authority, claims that only 1-2 million Jews were murdered. He also said that non-frum woman on their way to be shot, provocatively posed nude to their Nazi executioners. He is a very sick puppy and should not be given any support, especially in Ramat Bet Shemesh where a lot of Holocaust survivors and children of survivors live.

With 1.6M Followers, TikTok Influencer Miriam Ezagui Teaches The Masses About Her Orthodox Lifestyle

 

 “Hi my name is Miriam,” the video begins. “I’m an Orthodox Jew, and I share what my life is like.”

So opens a typical TikTok post from Miriam Ezagui, a 37-year-old Brooklyn-based labor and delivery nurse who has amassed 1.6 million followers on the social media platform. Users who make their way to “JewTok,” as the Jewish corner of TikTok is known, have likely encountered Ezagui’s videos, which cover everything from purchasing a sheitel to making matzah ball soup to a makeup tutorial with her daughter.

Since starting her account in May 2020, Ezagui has cemented herself at the top of the searches for “Jewish” and “Orthodox Jewish” thanks to her warm demeanor, easy humor and information-based approach. But she didn’t set out to become a Jewish influencer.

“I didn’t originally start as a Jewish account,” Ezagui told the Jewish Telegraphic Agency. Instead, it was a way to be productive while on maternity leave for her fourth child: “It gave me an excuse to get dressed and not just walk around in pajamas all day.”

These days, Ezagui gets invited to numerous events and Jewish product launches: she’s received free clothes thanks to collaborations with local retailers; tickets to see the off-Broadway play “The Wanderers” in exchange for an ad on her account, as well as discounts at the well-known Shani Wigs store in Brooklyn. Ezagui, who collaborates with both Jewish and non-Jewish influencers, said she’s often recognized as she goes about her day-to-day life.

Ezagui, who is Hasidic and whose four daughters range in age from 18 months to 9 years old, began her account as a way to share tips on the best ways to safely and comfortably hold a baby using woven wraps. But that all changed in late January 2022, when comedian and “The View” host Whoopi Goldberg said on air that “the Holocaust isn’t about race.” 

‘He was 100 percent going to kill me’ – Israeli woman attacked by US secret service agent speaks out

 

The victim of a drunken attack by one of President Joe Biden’s secret service agents said that the U.S. and Israel engaged in a cover-up of the incident, telling Hebrew-language media that she is suffering from psychological distress months after the beating and demanding justice.

Tamar (Tami) Ben Haim, who is the granddaughter of former Sephardic Chief Rabbi Ovadia Yosef, was walking near her Jerusalem home in July 2022 when she encountered two men on the street.

The pair, both secret service agents in Israel ahead of Biden’s trip to the country, had reportedly been drinking heavily for hours at a local pub in the nearby Mahane Yehuda open air market.

Although there were no words exchanged between the parties, one of the agents, identified as Patrick William, launched a frenzied attack against Ben Haim .According to Ben Haim, William accosted her, repeatedly punching her in the chest, slapping her and tearing off her earring.

She told Ynet that she was in fear for her life during the beating.

“I shouted ‘Help!’ but nobody heard me,” Ben Haim said. “I was in total despair. I thought it was the end of me. I saw that the man brutally beating me had a gun. If [the second secret service agent] hadn’t stopped him, he would have 100 percent killed me.”

Ben Haim managed to lead local police to the men, who were detained

But within two hours, William was released from detention by an official from the American embassy. The agent was placed on the first flight back to the U.S., said Nir Yasolowitz, Ben Haim’s attorney, and it’s unclear if he faced discipline for his actions.

“Tami is fighting like a lioness for her justice,” Yasolowitz said. “[Israeli] political officials preferred a photo with Biden and for the visit to pass quietly, at the cost of seriously harming an innocent citizen who did nothing wrong.”Yasolowitz called for an investigation into what he called a “cover-up” and collusion between the Israeli and U.S. governments to sweep the incident under the rug.

Ben Haim was left with PTSD after the attack and is currently undergoing psychiatric treatment. She told Ynet that she never received an apology from the American government or Israeli Foreign Ministry.

“Can you imagine what would have happened if it had been the other way around, a bodyguard of Netanyahu’s who attacked an American citizen in the U.S., and they would have released him after two hours?” she said.

“Not a chance. He would [be imprisoned and] not see the light of day in America.”

Good Riddance Tom Nides, US Ambassador to Israel Resigning

 

US Ambassador to Israel Tom Nides will be stepping down from his job as ambassador this summer, according to a report by Amit Segal.

He already informed Secretary of State Antony Blinken and National Security Advisor Andrew Sullivan of his intentions, during his recent visit to D.C.

He will be temporarily by his deputy, Stephanie Hallett.

Nides relationship with the current Israeli government has not been the best, to put it mildly.

The Satmar "Shvantz" @Yakovolf

                                    


A "shvantz" is a tail in Yiddish,

There is one particular guy, I'm guessing he is ex Satmar guy who has a twitter account and goes by the handle @Yakovolf
All in all I agree with a lot of his tweets but when it comes to Israel, he goes insane with his sheer hatred of the State. 

I have found that a lot of ex-Satmars when they go off or become "tuna -beigels" still have this hatred towards the State of Israel, because it is so embedded in them that they cannot shake it. 
And even those who shake off  Satmar traditions including Torah Umitzvois still keep hating Israel because it remains in their blood.

I am not suggesting that  @Yakovof is not frum; I believe he is.

In his tweet below, he mocks those who set up a new holiday, "Yom Ha'atzmot, " writing that
"There is no Yom Tov commemorating the entrance into the Land of Israel led by Yehoshua, nor is there a celebration for the construction of the First Beis Hamikdash by Shlomo Hamelech, the rebuilding of the Second Temple, or the return of Ezra to Eretz Yisroel."

he then goes into a rant stating:

"But on the day a secular state was founded by Kofrim and Mechalelei Shabbos somehow, religious Zionists say Hallel'"

I had posted last week, that the Satmar Rebbe of Monroe in 1995 mocked the entire Lag Be'omer ritual and yelled that this is "not our mesorah"and prohibited his sheep from flying to Israel to celebrate Lag Be'omer in Meron. He threatened to throw out those bochrim that went. 
But should you glance at Satmar social media, you can see full page invitations to the "Hadlaka in Monroe"
So much for that not being in "our mesorah!"

It turns out that the Satmar Rebbe may actually be right! 

The question is really whether we can establish new holidays. 

Despite  @Yakovof  tweet, this is not a simple matter with many great poiskim stating that it is in fact permitted and not only permitted but Hallel should be recited.
In fact, ironically, if you read the Chasam Sofer you can clearly see that Lag Be'omer is not a Mesorah,  and yet the Zionist Yom Hazmaot may very well be a holiday and Hallel should be recited in full with a bracha, according to the Chasam Sofer.

The Chasam Sofer (Teshuvot Chasam Sofer, YD 233) is critical of those who celebrate Lag Ba'omer, as the day is not mentioned anywhere in rabbinic literature and doesn't commemorate any miracle or salvation., (which was the Satmar Rebbe's argument back in 1995)  But then the Chasam Sofer states that "establishing a festival to mark a miraculous event, is a Biblical requirement, and one who does not to do so in violation of not performing a positive mitzvah. 

The Chaya Adam (155:41) also ruled that it is a mitzvah for an individual or a community to establish a holiday. He relates how he himself established a holiday on the day when he and his family were spared after a powder keg explosion destroyed a number of homes including his own, claiming the lives of 31 people.

Both the Magen Avraham (OC 686:5) and the Mishna Berura (OC 686:8) record that a community can create a "Purim" for themselves and for future generations, on a day in which they experienced a miracle.

All agree including the Chazon Ish that Israel winning the war in 1948 was a miracle.  

Getting back to @Yakovof  's tweet. 
It is ironic that he is mocking a new holiday that religious Zionists established, which has a basis in halacha according to poiskim, as millions of Jews now call it their home, while ignoring new holidays that Satmar itself established, for example, the anniversary of the day that the Satmar Rebbe hopped on a Zionist Train to save himself, is a huge event with celebrations going on all day.
And recently they established another brand new holiday a "Hadlaka" on Lag Be'omer that the Satmar Rebbe himself mocked and the Chasam Sofer says is NOT a holiday!

As far as his remark that there is "no Yom Tov commemorating the entrance into the Land of Israel led by Yehoshua" that is misleading, but how would the "shvantz" know that, they don't teach Tanach in Satmar. 

All the Jews save for a handful died in the midbar, they were not circumcised, and when they were still alive they hadn't celebrated the holidays written in the Torah for 40 years. So those who entered Eretz Yisrael with Yehoshua had not ever in their entire lives experienced ANY Yom Tov. In fact, Yehoshua had to circumcise them so that they could observe the very first Yom Tov which was Pesach. Every Yom Tov after that was a totally new experience to them, there was no need to establish an additional Yom Tov, they were first learning how to  observe properly the Yomim Tovim written in the Torah, in addition, most of Eretz Yisrael was not conquered, in fact Yehosuah was punished because of that, as he didn't finish the job he was instructed to do.

There was in fact a celebration for the construction of the First Bais Hamikdash see Mo'ed Katan 8b where the gemarrah relates that the celebration continued into Yom Kippur and Chazal at the time permitted them to eat. It must have been a huge celebration if they ate on the holiest day of the year. 
As far as the Second Bais Hamikdash is concerned, very few Jews wanted to return from Bavel and build the Bais Hamikdash, Ezra cursed them. I don't think they were in a mood to celebrate. 

But the reason that @Yakovof  is a huge "shvantz" is because there is no comparison of the miracle of the  gathering in of the exiles from four corners of the earth after 2,000 years, an event which never ever happened to Jews or any other nation in world history, truly a miraculous event, compared to the building of the Bais Hamikdash. When the Jews left Mitzrayim, all Jews had lived in one place, Mitzrayim. When the Jews went up to with Ezra from Bavel, 99.9% of all Jews lived in one place, Bavel. But the miracle of the State of Israel is like no other in the sense that the Jews coming back, come from all over the world. In just a year, the majority of all the world's Jews will be living in the State of Israel!
The State of Israel was surrounded by five, count them, 5 armies vowing to destroy them and murder every single Jew. The IDF miracuously overpowered all of them. Truly a miracle. 

The building of the Bais Hamikdash was not a miracle, though there were miracles,h ere and there but the building itself was not a miracle, not the first and certainly not the second. The few Jews that returned to Eretz Yisrael in the times of Ezra was a pitiful few, so few that all the families that made Aliya from Baval are named by Ezra. 
The Satmar shvantz should first mock his own "NEW" Yomim Toivim established in Monroe before mocking a Holiday concerning the only Jewish country in the entire world, that has the most Torah learned in it, and whose government supports Torah Moidois to over $300 Million every year. 

The gemarra in Sanhedrin 94a relates that Chizkiyahu Hamelech could have been made the Meshiach but for the fact that he failed to give praise upon the downfall of the wicked Sancherev, King of Assyria. Chizkiyahu failed to give this profound experience a religious expression. 
We dare not make the same mistake.
Yom Haatzmaot and Yom Yerushlayim possess profound religious significance and meaning. These are days of great Divine Providence-miracles and wonders- and deserve religious expression. By celebrating Yom Haatzmaot and Yom Yerushlayim as festivals, we express our thanks to the Ribbono Shel Olam for the tremendous gifts of the State of Israel and Yershulayim.
