Tiffany Haddish: I Will Wear Fur Everyday Until ‘Police Stop Killing Black People’
I got to hand it to her, finally a gal with guts....
I'll bet no Jewish actress or comedienne would have the chutzpah to stand up and say:
"I'll wear fur until anti-Semitic attacks against Jews Stop!!!
I would like to see PETA start up with her.... and if they do, how long will that last????
A-list actress and comedian Tiffany Haddish created a stir over the weekend after announcing that she will protest law enforcement “killing black people” by continuing to wear fur, garnering scorn and praise from fellow African-American entertainers.
“I’mma wear it as much as possible. I don’t know if you guys know this about me, but I’m about to start protesting,” Tiffany Haddish said in a video posted to Instagram Sunday. “I’mma wear fur every day until they stop killing black people. When the police stop killing black people, I’ll stop wearing fur. It’s my new protest. So sorry, PETA! Don’t be mad at me. Be mad at the police. When they stop killing black people, I’ll stop wearing fur… Because people are important, and so are the animals.”
Hip-hop mogul and longtime vegan Russell Simmons criticized Haddish, writing in the video’s comment section: “White supremacy is a disease that takes on many forms and has many symptoms.”
Abortion Killed 42 Million People In 2018
While the Left frets about the inhumanity of President Trump's immigration policy and the cruelty of ICE, let it be known that 42 million people died from abortions in 2018.
According to LifeNews, data compiled by Worldometers shows 42 million abortions occurred worldwide in 2018.
Those numbers exceed deaths related to cancer, HIV/AIDS, traffic accidents, and suicide.
Woldometers collects its data from governments and other reputable organizations to compile its data. The sources for the abortion stats were provided by:
- Sexual and reproductive health - World Health Organization (WHO)
- Shah, I.; Ahman, E. (December 2009). "Unsafe abortion: global and regional incidence, trends, consequences, and challenges" (Pdf). Journal of Obstetrics and Gynaecology Canada 31 (12): 1149–58. PMID 20085681
First-hand accounts by Americans living in Berlin during WWII reveal how Germans fell under Hitler's spell
First-hand accounts by Americans living in Berlin during the Second World War have revealed how Germans fell under Hitler's spell.
One US journalist described crowds of young nurses screaming their approval at the top of their voices as the Fuhrer vowed to 'turn British cities to ash'.
A new book includes another account of how a brainwashed seven-year-old boy went door-to-door to demand money for the Nazi regime while doing Hitler salutes.
Surprisingly, American journalists were granted an almost free rein to write what they saw fit about daily life under the fascist regime. This is because Hitler was convinced the US could be an asset to him by persuading Britain to surrender.
After war was declared, Britons living in the German capital were interned or sent home. But US citizens, due to their country's neutral status at that point, were able to carry on living there without restrictions - and write about the horrors they encountered.
Arabs Start patrolling in Brooklyn With Cars Looking Like Police Cars!
How soon will the fancy Flatbush and Boro-Park ladies start wearing hijabs, speak Arabic & pray to Mecca ???
New York City residents were shocked last week to see vehicles with the words “Muslim Community Patrol” emblazoned on them cruising the streets like police squad cars.
The sight of the vehicles immediately led to concerns about “creeping Sharia.”
Democrats Kick Simcha Felder in the Ass!
When you deal with manure, you come out smelling like crap!
Thanks, but no thanks.
As they prepare to take over the majority, state Senate Democrats say Brooklyn Sen. Simcha Felder will not be welcomed back into their conference.
“New Yorkers elected the largest Democratic Majority in memory consisting of candidates who ran on a robust progressive agenda and proudly sought election as members of our conference,” Senate Democratic spokesman Mike Murphy said. “As such, we have decided to remain a 39-member majority.”
Despite being a registered Democrat, Felder the past several years caucused with the Senate Republicans, who controlled the chamber.
He remained the swing vote for the Republicans after a separate group of eight breakaway Dems broke its leadership coalition with the GOP in April to rejoin the Democratic fold.
But with the Democrats having easily won control of the chamber in the November elections, Felder has been talking with incoming Majority Leader Andrea Stewart-Cousins in recent weeks about rejoining the conference.
With the legislative session set to begin Jan. 9, Felder was told Sunday that won’t be happening, a source said.
The writing might have been on the wall when Stewart-Cousins recently appointed every Democrat in the chamber to chair a committee or subcommittee — except Felder.
Without Felder, the Senate Dems will still have 39 of the 63 seats in the chamber, far above the 32 votes needed to pass legislation.
With whomever he sits, Felder, an Orthodox Jew, is expected to vote against some of the more progressive legislation the Dems are set to pass, including bills to strengthen the state’s abortion laws and add protections for transgender people in New York’s anti-discrimination statute.
Felder, who ran in November on both the Democratic and Republican lines, had previously said he would sit with whichever conference offers him the chance to do the most for his constituents.

More than 6.6 million Jews living in Israel on eve of 2019,
Israel’s population neared nine million on the eve of the new year, the Israeli Central Bureau of Statistics reported Monday.
A total of approximately 8,972,000 people lived in Israel as of December 31st, according to the CBS’ estimates.
Of those nearly 9 million people, roughly 74.3%, or 6,668,000, are Jews.
Approximately 1.88 million, or 20.9% of the population, are Arabs, while 426,000 (4.8% of the total) are neither Jewish nor Arab, and are classified as “Others”.
A large portion of this third category are non-Jewish immigrants from Eastern Europe who moved to Israel under the Right of Return after the fall of the Berlin Wall in 1989.
According to the CBS report Monday, Israel’s population grew by two percent during 2018. Of the total population growth in 2018, 81% was the result of natural growth (the number of live births minus the number of deaths), while 19% was the result of net positive migration to Israel.
A total of 28,000 new immigrants moved to Israel during 2018, while 185,000 children were born.
In addition, 12,000 returning citizens moved back to Israel in 2018.
Of the 185,000 live births in 2018, 74.4% were to Jewish mothers, compared to 22.8% to Arab mothers. Only 2.8% of live births were to mothers in the “Others” category.
By comparison, 7,000 Israelis emigrated from Israel in 2018, and there were a total of 45,000 deaths recorded.
MAZEL TOV! A 4th Chareidi Grandchild For Israel PM Netanyahu
While Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu and his wife Sara continue their visit to Brazil, his chareidi daughter, Noa Roth, gave birth to a healthy baby girl. This is the fourth child in the family, after two sons and a daughter.
Noa is married to Chabad businessman Daniel Roth and they live in the Sanhedria neighborhood of Yerushalayim, where he is viewed among the prominent figures in the neighborhood.
The prime minister’s daughter became frum years ago and got married around twelve years ago.
The birth was on Sunday at Hadassah Mount Scopus Hospital in Jerusalem, BeChadrei Chareidim reported.
Family sources tell BeChadrei that there is a connection between the prime minister and his son-in-law, his daughter and his chareidi grandchildren, but they are unaware if a call took place from Brazil to wish Noa a mazel tov.

"Havdala of Motzei Shabbos & Yom Tov"
The Halacha is that on every single Motzei Shabbos, even if Motzei Shabbos falls on the night of a Yom Tov, we make the Havdala ceremony.
The Mishna on this Daf rules that when Yom Tov falls on Motzei Shabbos, the Havdala includes the phrase
" המבדיל בין קודש לקודש'' .
"Blessed are You Hashem, Who separates between the holy and the holy."
Normally, when it comes to mark the close of Shabbos and a weekday, the Havdala blessing mentions the separation "between holy and the mundane," המבדיל בין קודש לחול''
but since in this case we have a festival come in just as the Shabbos ends, we do make a Havdala, a separation, but it is between the holiness of the Shabbos that just ended and the holiness of the upcoming festival.
The purpose of making this Havdala is because by making Havdala we are sanctifying the Shabbos that just ended.
Just like we made kiddush on Friday night to distinguish the holiness of the Shabbos and the mundane aspects of the past week, so too when Shabbos ends there is a Mitzvah to distinguish between the holiness of the past Shabbos and upcoming mundane aspects of the new week.
Before the era of the אנשי כנסת הגדולה, the "Men of the Great Assembly" there was no specific text of how to recite the Havdala; everyone who made Havdala made up the verses as he went along.
The "Men of the Great Assembly" which was made up of Ezra Ha'Sofer and his Bais Din composed the "nusach" of all organized prayer and included the Havdala text that we have today!

76.9% of Chareidim Living in Bnei Brak Own Their Apartments Yet they Earn the Least of all citizens Living in Israel ????
Data from the Central Bureau of Statistics show that the average
per capita income in the city of Bnei Brak, the city of Torah and Chassidut, is only NIS 2771
New data published today by the Central Bureau of Statistics (CBS) shed light on the average income and expenditure per capita in Israeli cities.
The report "Household Expenditures in the 15 Largest Cities in Israel in 2017" opens with the following data:
Gross income per household in Israel is NIS 20,027; The net income is NIS 16,518 and the average monthly expenditure per household is NIS 13,114.
In Rehovot, the most money spent: NIS 14,056, and in Bat Yam the average of the lowest expenditure was NIS 10,455.
As always, the ultra-Orthodox cities - mainly Bnei Brak - lead the bottom of the lists in several studies
• About a quarter of the household income in Bnei Brak comes from allowances and subsidies - more than twice the national average (only 61.1% of the income comes from work).
However, the percentage of residents of the city who live in apartments owned by them is the highest in Israel - 76.9%..
• In Bnei Brak, per capita income is the lowest in Israel - as well as expenditure per capita. The average income is only NIS 2,771, and the average expenditure is only NIS 2,357
• The average income per household in Bnei Brak stands at NIS 14,185, also the lowest in Israel.
• In Bnei Brak, the highest percentages of ownership of air-conditioners and freezers were recorded -
"Shvartzas" The New face of Anti-Semitism
Jews (Tuchis Lekkers) Marching With Rev Martin Luther King for Civil Rights |
This is what happens when you keep helping people who hate you ...
Jews were in the forefront in the Civil Rights Movement, marching with Rev Martin Luther King, Jews were murdered while helping blacks fight for civil rights ....
What do they get in return????
Then get kicked and bitten in the ass!!
The new face of anti-Semitism in America is increasingly black, liberal and famous.
Last weekend, LeBron James, the biggest name in basketball, posted on Instagram the lyrics to a song by the rapper 21 Savage.
The line James typed out to his followers feeds off the ancient libel against Jews, that they control the world's money supply: "We been getting that Jewish money, everything is Kosher."
James quickly apologized, saying he didn't understand the historical context of the slur, or even that it was offensive.
The NBA and James' Los Angeles Lakers accepted that lame excuse, and now want to move on. No mandatory sensitivity training for James, no scrutiny of pro basketball for evidence of a broader problem. Starbucks should cry foul.
Rav Eliezer Mordechai Kenig of Breslov, Tzefas Passes Away at 73
The feeling of Aveilus spread rapidly in the Breslov community on Monday morning with the announcement of the Petira of HaGaon HaTzaddik HaRav Eliezer Mordechai Kenig ZT”L, who was niftar in Tzefas at the age of 73. The Rav was the Mora D’asra of the Breslov Kehilla in Tzefas.

Rav Kenig was a major figure in Breslov, and many many turned to him for advice regularly and in addition to the local kehilla, many chassidim from outside Tzefas regarded the niftar as their rov.
Levaya information:
The levaya will begin at noon from the niftar’s home on Chassam Sofer Street in Tzefas and then towards the Trisk Beis Medrash, and then the route the niftar took daily, walking to the main Breslov Beis Medrash in Kiryat Breslov, and then to the Tzefas Cemetery for kvura.

Shmuley Boteach and Pam Anderson at Shabbat Seudah
Rabbi Shmuley Boteach made a surprise appearance at the Carlebach Shul’s annual comedy show at Stand Up NY and told how Pamela Anderson came to his Shabbat dinner one year.
A fellow guest later told him he “was the only man who could sit next to Pamela Anderson and ogle her Rolodex!” Boteach told the sold-out crowd.
The author noted it was the 20th anniversary of his book “Kosher Sex” and said, “Even for the uncircumcised, kosher sex is a cut above!”
Comic Talia Reese said, “Babies are like beer. There’s a lot of pressure to have another from people who should have stopped a long time ago.”
Reese also quipped, “They say only the good die young. Maybe that’s why I’m so afraid of the elderly.”
Comic Sam Rubinoff said, “I watch a lot of crime dramas. Fifty percent of the time, someone in a relationship murders them. I’m not in a relationship … I’ve doubled my survival rate!”
David Weinbach riffed on the horrors of airplane travel. “My aunt works for TSA security,” he said. “She makes me take off my shoes … and belt … every time I enter her living room.”
He continued, “Airplane mode on your smartphone means the phone looks [like it’s] on, but is actually dead inside — kinda like the look of most passengers in coach!”
