Jona Rechnitz and his Kardashian Connections

A former crony of New York Mayor Bill de Blasio is accused of using his alleged links to the Kardashians to lure victims in a diamond fraud scheme.

Jona Rechnitz, who was already sentenced to 10 months jail after pleading guilty in a corruption scheme, is now facing a separate fraud lawsuit involving $15million in gems.

Although they have no direct connections to the alleged scheme, Rechnitz shared footage of himself partying with Kim Kardashian at a November jewelry show in New York in an attempt to convince a judge to 'go easy on him' during December's sentencing. 

In this latest fraud, however, Rechnitz is alleged to have used the jewelry show as a way to draw in more victims to his fraud.

AIPAC Cowards APOLOGIZE for ads calling Democrats ‘radicals’ pushing ‘anti-Semitic’ policies

The American Israel Public Affairs Committee, "Jewish Cowards" apologized for and removed at least four Facebook ads that slammed “radical” Democrats in Congress, including one that said Israel’s harshest critics in Congress pose a threat “maybe more sinister” than ISIS and other terror groups.

In a statement posted Saturday on Twitter, the lobby offered its “unequivocal apology to the overwhelming majority of Democrats in Congress who are rightfully offended by the inaccurate assertion that the poorly worded, inflammatory advertisement implies.”

The AIPAC apology was attached to an earlier tweet by Eli Clifton, an investigative journalist who first brought one of the Facebook ads to light. An AIPAC official told the Jewish Telegraphic Agency the apology applied also to another three inflammatory Facebook ads. 

AIPAC rarely if ever apologizes for its content.

Biden Calls a Lady "Lying Dog-Faced Pony"

New York Times Wipes Israel off the Map

Today’s New York Times, ran a front page article on Egypt and the Nile River and featured a map of the Middle East and Africa that named every country except one – the State of Israel.  A blank spot was left in the area that should have had the name “Israel” on it.

Egypt, Libya, Saudi Arabia, Ethiopia and the Sudan are all named.  Israel, which received its independence in 1948 was left out.

 The New York Times has a habit of distorting its reporting about Israel, 

According to Camera.org, “Again and again, the newspaper distorts the news, downplays inconvenient facts, and departs from journalistic norms. 

The article dealt with a new dam that threatens the Nile River.

Was Berland Involved In Disappearance Of Teenager 30 Years Ago ?

Israeli Police are currently investigating suspicions that followers of Rabbi Eliezer Berland, the leader of the Shuvu Banim movement, were involved in the disappearance of a 17-year-old boy some 30 years ago.

The missing teenager in question was Nissim Shitrit, who disappeared in Jerusalem in 1986. Shitrit was a student in a Yeshiva in Ashdod and a few weeks before he disappeared, he complained to the police that he had been attacked by “Tzniayus Police”.

The police received information from Khan 11 reporter Shani Haziza, information that apparently links followers of Rabbi Berland’s to the mysterious disappearance. Police have begun to question numerous affiliates of Rabbi Berland’s with regards to the disappearance.

On Sunday, Rabbi Berland and his wife were arrested and taken into police custody on the suspicion of exploiting ill people and their families, as well as financial crimes such as money laundering, and tax evasion on funds whose sum is in the hundreds of millions of shekels.

During the arrest, which occurred at 5:00 a.m. on Sunday morning, students of Rabbi Berland threw rocks at police officers in an attempt to prevent the arrest. Two officers were injured.

According to his lawyer, neither Rabbi Berland nor his wife impeded the arrest in any way.

Rav-Kav Being Replaced by Apps, Bracelets

The Rav-Kav transportation card will be losing its relevance in April, as new applications will begin allowing public transportation users to pay with their phone instead. While the card will still work, the apps will most likely be worth the switch, according to The Marker.

The current system allows users to charge their Rav-Kav with either a stored value or a contract. The stored value is used like a debit card on buses and trains, with each trip withdrawing the price of a ticket from the stored value. Contracts come in a variety of forms and are based on time and area, with options for monthly, weekly and daily contracts covering trains and buses in cities, regions or the entire country.

The new system will monitor how users travel and will choose the cheapest option based on their travel at the end of each month. If, for example, a user travels multiple times between multiple cities throughout the month, the payment application will charge the user for a monthly contract in the region he traveled. If, however, the user only travels between two cities or with multiple types of transport on one day, the application will charge them for a day contract in that area.

Convicted Sex Fiend Berland arrested Again ...

Rabbi Eliezer Berland, a convicted sex offender and leader of the Shuvu Banim Breslov community, was arrested Sunday morning in a police raid on his home on suspicion of fraudulent receipt and tax offenses. His wife and senior members of the Shuvu Banim community were detained for questioning. 

Following a covert investigation, police forces raided the homes of six suspected offenders. 

The investigation focused on two main issues. The first was criminal - gathering evidence and testimony against the 18-20-year Jerusalem suspects who allegedly exploited hundreds of civilians and their families by demanding tens of thousands of shekels in exchanges for blessings of healing.

The second track was economic - investigators managed to uncover a variety of alleged money laundering offenses, including tax evasion with millions of shekels. The money was purportedly laundered using dozens of bank accounts.

Chareidie Who Raped His Own Sister Is Upset That He Was Arrested On Shabbos

This "holy" Jew is yelling and screaming to the Israeli Press that the cops could have waited until Motzeit Shabbos to arrest him ..

I think he is right ... what was the hurry since he had been raping his sister for years?

I guess he learned a new lesson... that the Mishtara... isn't going to ask a shaaleh from Rav Tuvia Weiss or Rav Sternbach ...whether they can arrest a serial rapist on Shabbos...

They arrest when it's least expected..!

Here they were right ... I hope he made Kiddush before and got some Schmaltz herring in because he won't be making kiddush for a very long time!

Trump Fires Vindman the Ukrainan Born Official Who Testified On Impeachment

Exacting swift punishment against those who crossed him, an emboldened President Donald Trump ousted two government officials who had delivered damaging testimony against him during his impeachment hearings. The president took retribution just two days after his acquittal by the Senate.

First came news Friday that Trump had ousted Lt. Col. Alexander Vindman, the Ukranian born soldier and national security aide who played a central role in the Democrats’ impeachment case.

Vindman’s lawyer said his client was escorted out of the White House complex Friday, told to leave in retaliation for “telling the truth.”

“The truth has cost Lt. Col. Alexander Vindman his job, his career, and his privacy,” attorney David Pressman said in a statement. Vindman’s twin brother, Lt. Col. Yevgeny Vindman, also was asked to leave his job as a White House lawyer on Friday, the Army said in a statement. Both men were reassigned to the Army.

Of course anyone who listened to his testimony came away with the feeling that Vindman was a little nothing in the White House basement who wanted to destroy his boss the President of the US.

Next came word that Gordon Sondland, Trump’s ambassador to the European Union, also was out.

“I was advised today that the President intends to recall me effective immediately as United States Ambassador to the European Union,” Sondland said in a statement.

New York Man Who Was Set to Testify Against MS-13 FOUND DEAD! Under NEW NY Law .. Criminals Get to Know Who Called Police

A New York man willing to testify against MS-13 members who attacked him in 2018 was found dead earlier this week after his identity was disclosed to defendants’ attorneys in pre-trial proceedings, police say.

The bludgeoned body of 36-year-old Wilmer Maldonado Rodriguez was found Sunday outside an abandoned home in New Cassel, the Nassau County Police Department announced Wednesday. Investigators said Rodriguez in October 2018 came to the defense of two boys who were being threatened by the gang — only to be beaten with a bat and stabbed, according to Newsday.

"This courageous man was prepared to testify against his alleged assailants at an upcoming trial, but he was brutally beaten to death before he could," Nassau County District Attorney Madeline Singas said in a statement provided to the newspaper.

"This case underscores the importance of safeguarding the identities of witnesses and victims of crime and our hearts are with Mr. Maldonado’s family and friends as we grieve his loss.”

Singas says prosecutors tried to keep Rodriguez’s identity secret by obtaining a protective order in December 2018.

Trump proudly displays 'Acquitted' headlines, mere feet from Pelosi at prayer breakfast

President Trump proudly displayed two newspapers with blaring “Acquitted” headlines Thursday morning, waving them before a National Prayer Breakfast audience in his first appearance since he was declared not guilty in his Senate impeachment trial.

The president brandished the headlines mere feet from House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., after both arrived at the breakfast.

Trump first picked up a USA Today newspaper and presented it before the audience. He then put it down and picked up a copy of Thursday’s Washington Post, which had a similar headline.

He later addressed the audience and took some not-so-subtle swipes at Pelosi once more.

"I don't like people who use their faith as justification for doing what they know is wrong, nor do I like people who say 'I pray for you' when you know that is not so," he said. Pelosi had publicly said during the impeachment process that she and fellow Democrats were "prayerful" and that she prays for the president.

Trump also called impeachment a "terrible ordeal by some very dishonest and corrupt people."

For Trump, the moment was payback not only for impeachment but her conduct at the close of Tuesday's State of the Union address.

Scientists bewildered after monster galaxy ‘dies’ without warning

Guys... I posted this interesting article since I can't prove them wrong ....

but can anyone prove them right?

Also .... I'm amazed that they keep searching the universe looking for life ... spending billion of dollars hoping that they will find a similar earth environment that contains life ....

Looking for life yet they have no compunction of destroying and aborting life right here on this planet......

Burn bright; die young.

Scientists are left scratching their heads after a hugely productive galaxy went dark without warning, according to a new study.

The monstrous star system, known as XMM-2599, reportedly existed 12 billion years ago when the universe was a ripe young 1.8 billion years old, reports SciTech Daily. But researchers at the University Of California in Riverside are bewildered over how the “ultramassive galaxy” could suddenly die.

The study was published in the Astrophysical Journal Letters.

New York City renters no longer have to pay broker fees

Tenants will no longer be forced to pay a broker’s fee when renting an apartment in New York City, a report said Wednesday.

The ruling — which was made on Friday and went into effect Wednesday — came as a welcome reprieve for city residents who have been forced to plunk down broker costs in addition to a security deposit and first month’s rent, according to The Wall Street Journal.

New York is one of a few cities in the US where residents are charged a fee to rent an apartment. The move is the latest push in creating more favorable rules for tenants.

The apartment listing site StreetEasy said about 45 percent of New York City rental listings last year included a broker’s fee.

Renters may still, however, choose to hire a broker to help them rent an apartment and then pay a fee.

Landlord groups said the change would force them to raise rents on their apartments.

“You might have some owners who decide to just try to do it on their own,“ Andrew Barrocas, founder of the brokerage MNS, told the Journal.

“I’m leasing thousands of apartments a year and all of these landlords, if they thought they could do it better themselves, they would.”

Kirk right with the Tallit 

Kirk Douglas, the legendary actor who portrayed legions of tough guys and embraced his Jewish heritage later in life, died at his home in Beverly Hills on Wednesday. He was 103.

"It is with tremendous sadness that my brothers and I announce that Kirk Douglas left us today at the age of 103," Kirk's son, Michael Douglas, wrote in a statement shared to social media.

"But to me and my brothers Joel and Peter he was simply Dad, to Catherine, a wonderful father-in-law, to his grandchildren and great grandchild their loving grandfather, and to his wife Anne, a wonderful husband," he added.

Michael concluded his post by writing: "Kirk's life was well lived, and he leaves a legacy in film that will endure for generations to come, and a history as a renowned philanthropist who worked to aid the public and bring peace to the planet.Let me end with the words I told him on his last birthday and which will always remain true. Dad- I love you so much and I am so proud to be your son."

The statement did not indicate exactly how or where he died.
