With acquittal a foregone conclusion, the real drama is what Trump does next

by Michael Goodwin

 Given that there have been only four presidential impeachments in American history, and given that only one man has twice suffered the indignity, viewers who tuned into the start of Donald Trump’s second Senate trial had a right to expect a buzz of excitement and a sense of drama.

What they got instead was buzz-kill and all the drama of watching paint dry. Who knew impeachment could be so lifeless and history so meaningless?

Certainly Chief Justice John Roberts knew. His refusal to preside reveals the exercise to be a cheap knockoff rather than the real thing.

And it’s impossible to believe the Founders would approve of Sen. Patrick Leahy of Vermont acting as both a juror and presiding officer, a conflict of interest so large that it alone renders the trial out of bounds, as Trump lawyer David Schoen effectively argued. His display of Leahy tweets calling for conviction sealed the argument that Leahy cannot be viewed as neutral.

For viewers, Day One was mostly a dud, in that they didn’t even get a trial, only a debate about whether there should be a trial. The dueling videos were the most interesting part, but they were also irrelevant to the threshold question of constitutionality.

Although it passed in a late-afternoon vote with six Republicans joining all 50 Dems, the impeachers’ victory will be temporary. Their fundamental problem is that there can be no tension about the proceedings because there is no tension about the outcome, and thus no logical reason for the trial.

Trump is a private citizen in Florida, Joe Biden sits in the Oval Office and acquittal is rightly a foregone conclusion. The smart idea would be to call the whole thing off, on both constitutional grounds and common sense.

No Hakoras Hatoiv .... Mark Cuban’s Mavericks won’t play national anthem anymore


Society starts going down the tubes when we are ingrates! When there is no hakoras hatoiv. our world as we know it collapses. This Mark Cuban guy who is on the Shark Tank, and instead of being grateful to the USA for being successful he eliminates "“The Star-Spangled Banner” 

Haven’t heard about any national anthem protests at Mavericks games? There’s a good reason for that: Dallas isn’t and won’t be playing “The Star-Spangled Banner” anymore.

Mark Cuban told The Athletic it was his decision to eliminate the tradition of playing the anthem before games. The move went by unnoticed through the first 13 combined preseason and regular-season games at American Airlines Center because the Mavericks did not publicize it, either within the organization or through an announcement to media. Monday marked the first game in which the Mavericks allowed a limited number of fans into their arena.

Cuban has been vocal about his support of those who wish to kneel during the playing of the national anthem, the practice which former 49ers quarterback Colin Kaepernick began in 2016 and which became a lightning rod for partisan political debate.

The outspoken Mavericks owner told ESPN last July of the potential for his team’s players to kneel during the anthem: “If they were taking a knee, and they were being respectful, I’d be proud of them” and that he hoped he would “join them.” He later tweeted, in response to what he called “The National Anthem Police,” that if critics of the nonviolent protest of systemic racism in the United States took issue then they could “complain to your boss and ask why they don’t play the National Anthem every day before you start work.”

Although NBA rules require players to stand during the playing of the anthem, commissioner Adam Silver has opted to overlook the rule in view of supporting his players’ decisions to express themselves.

“I recognize that this is a very emotional issue on both sides of the equation in America right now,” Silver said during a press conference in December, “and I think it calls for real engagement rather than rule enforcement.”

Why Trump lawyer David Schoen covered his head with every sip of water

 


David Schoen unwittingly gave Twitter a lesson in orthodox Jewish customs during former President Donald Trump’s impeachment trial on Tuesday.

Schoen, Trump’s attorney, rested his hand on top of his head each time he took a sip of water while making his opening argument that the case is unconstitutional.

Several viewers noted Schoen’s seemingly unusual drinking habit, with some even suggesting he was trying to keep a toupee from falling.

“Is anybody going to acknowledge the way David Schoen is drinking water?” one user wrote.

But the lawyer was  making the ritual move because he is religiously observant.

Rabbi Menchem Genack, CEO of the kosher division of the Orthodox Union, explained that since Schoen is an observant Jew, he must cover his head and say a blessing whenever he eats or drinks.

Holocaust Scholars Ordered To Apologize In Polish Libel Case

 


Not only did the Polish bastards torture and murder innocent men, women and children but now you cannot call them out on it in Poland... 
and the stupid Chareidim keep going there to pray to the dead! 

A court in Warsaw ruled Tuesday that two prominent Holocaust researchers must apologize to a woman who claimed her deceased uncle had been slandered in a historical work that suggested he helped kill Jews during World War II.

Lawyers for 81-year-old Filomena Leszczynska argued that her uncle was a Polish hero who had saved Jews, and that the scholars had harmed her good name and that of her family.

The District Court in Warsaw did not, however, rule that they should be forced to pay her 100,000 zlotys ($27,000), as her lawyers had demanded.

The case has been closely watched because it is expected to set an important precedent for independent Holocaust research. The ruling can be appealed, however.

At stake in the case was Polish national pride, according to the plaintiffs, and according to the defendants, the future independence of Holocaust research.

NY Judge Blocks Cuomo’s Restrictions On Houses Of Worship


In a big win for the Jewish community on Tuesday, a New York district judge entered a permanent injunction that bars all executive orders from Gov. Cuomo on houses of worship.

The judge’s decision comes after Cuomo’s cap of 10 and later 25 people on synagogues were found by the supreme court to be discriminatory. Other lower level courts had also previously ruled against Cuomo in these cases.

Cuomo is also reeling from a recent New York Times exposé, which revealed that nine top New York State health officials resigned after Cuomo demanded that doctors come up with scientific justifications for his COVID rules.

“Earlier this morning, the district court issued a permanent injunction barring enforcement of the restrictions on attendance at houses of worship contained in Executive Order 202.68,” said Agudah lawyer Avi Schick. “This decision restores the protection of religious practice that is guaranteed by the Free Exercise Clause of the United States Constitution and reminds those in government that religion is not less important than business and entertainment.”

“Another consequence of this decision is that all of the summonses issued to Shuls for violations of Executive Order 202.68 should now be dismissed by the City,” continued Schick.

“I am hopeful that the City will soon rescind or void all the summonses issued and penalties imposed. Any shul that still has an issue with a summons they received should contact me.”

Chareidi Death Rate In Israel 3.5 Times Greater Than General Sector


One out of 100 Chareidim over 60 in Israel have died of the coronavirus, Prof. Eran Segal, a computational biologist at Weizmann Institute, told Israel’s coronavirus cabinet on Monday.

The number is staggering in comparison to the general population in Israel, in which one in 350 people over 60 have died of the coronavirus. In the Arab sector, one out of every 140 people over age 60 died of the coronavirus.

“If the infection rate in the general sector was similar to the rate in the Chareidi sector, there would have been a possible 7,600 additional fatalities in the over 60 age group,” Segal said.

Segal added that 93% of coronavirus fatalities in Israel occurred in the above 60 age group.

Blinken "blinks" On Golan Heights ..Suggests That it's on the Table


 To those who were excited about having a Jewish Sec of State know that the Jews are the Jews worst enemy ... may he go to hell!

The Golan Heights will always be part of Israel, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said on Tuesday after US Secretary of State Antony Blinken walked back the Trump administration’s recognition of the Golan Heights as part of Israel.

“The Golan was and will remain part of Israel,” Netanyahu said while visiting a health clinic in Zarzir, near Nazareth. “With an agreement, without an agreement, we are not coming down from the Golan. It will remain a sovereign part of the State of Israel.”

Blinken said in an interview on CNN on Monday night: “As a practical matter, the control of the Golan in that situation I think remains of real importance to Israel’s security.”
“Legal questions are something else, and over time if the situation were to change in Syria, that’s something we look at, but we are nowhere near that,” he stated.

Mother makes ultra-realistic Amazon parcel cake for her son's birthday

 



A mother treated her son to a special delivery for his birthday after she baked him a cake that looked exactly like an Amazon cardboard box.

Nina Evans Williams, 54, from Anglesey, Wales, sculpted the highly-detailed cake for her son Kane Evans' 24th birthday on February 2.

Her son had been receiving weekly deliveries from the online retailer throughout lockdown and she used this as inspiration for the cake which her son thought was a 'boring parcel' at first.

The cake itself is even sat on an intricately crafted "concrete porch" which is yet another layer of sponge cake.

The Amazon delivery cake took Nina two days to complete - including spending an entire day baking the four tiers of the cake itself. 

Nina, who works as a cake designer, said: 'He actually thought it was a package delivered for him!

'He gets deliveries quite often, almost weekly - and he's known for that especially during lockdown - so I thought that would be a fantastic!

'This year he didn't want a Liverpool Football Club cake, so I told him it was a surprise,

'The day before, I banned him from the cake cabin so he didn't see it until his actual birthday.'

Nina, who runs Nina's Cake Cabin, added: 'He came into the cabin and I said there was a boring parcel for him on the table and when he got closer he was like 'oh my god!''

The 15 x 10 x 5 inch cake took a whole day to bake in the oven, and another day to ice it and add finishing touches.

Roman Soldier That Fought the Jews in Masada Was Left Broke After the Military Deducted the Price of his Uniform and Food.... 1900 year old Pay stub Found


 A payslip made from a sheet of papyrus shows a Roman soldier was left penniless 1,900 years ago after the military took out fees for certain items.

The document was made out to a Gaius Messius, who participated in the Siege of Masada that was one of the last battles during the First Jewish-Roman War.

The receipt shows Messius received 50 denarri as his stipend, but fees for barley money, food and military equipment were taken out that totaled to the amount of his full pay.

Because part of the deductions taken were for fodder, food for livestock, experts believe he was a legionary cavalryman and had to feed his horse and mule.

The pay slip was found were the Romans may have set up camp during the Siege of Masada and is dated for after the war – suggesting it was payment for participation.

The document’s translation is available in the Database of Military Inscriptions and Papyri of Early Roman Palestine, as first reported on by Task & Purpose.

‘I received my stipendium of 50 denarii, out of which I have paid barley money 16 denarii. […]rnius: food expenses 20(?) denarii; boots 5 denarii; leather strappings 2 denarii; linen tunic 7 denarii.’

And the total of deductions is 50 denarri – Messius’ entire pay check.

‘It is interesting to observe how much of his pay went to mandatory expenses: clothing, food, etc. He seems effectively penniless after payday,’ reads the notes left by the team involved with the database.

Masada is located 12 miles east of Arad and is Israel’s most popular paid tourist attraction.

It was once an ancient fortification atop an isolated rock plateau, overlooking the Dead Sea.

Herod the Great built the massive structure between 37 and 31 BCE.

During the First Jewish-Roman War, which started in 66 AD through 73 AD, rebellions sparked by the Jews against the Roman Empire that had taken over Israel, according to the History Channel.

Also known as ‘The Great Revolt,’ the battle resulted in the destruction of Jewish towns, displacement of people and the appropriation of land for Roman Military use.

When Jerusalem was destroyed in 70 AD, the remaining rebels relocated to Herod’s fortress in Masada.

The Romans followed shortly after and surrounded Masada with about 8,000 soldiers at the base of the mountain.

When it became clear the Romans were going to take the fortress, the 960 Jews, excluding two women and five children, took their lives rather than become slaves of their enemy.

Flavius Josephus was a Roman-Jewish historian in the first century and born in Jerusalem. Josephus wrote down accounts of what he called ‘The Jewish War,’ including what he saw at the Siege of Masada: ‘They had died in the belief that they had left not a soul of them alive to fall into Roman hands; The Romans advanced to the assault … seeing none of the enemy but on all sides the awful solitude, and flames within and silence, they were at al loss to conjecture what had happened here encountering the mass of slain, instead of exulting as over enemies, they admired the nobility of their resolve.’

Masada had laid hidden from the world until it was rediscovered in 1828.

Trump impeachment conviction? ‘Zero chance,’ Republicans say, as Dems move forward with case

The hearings for the second impeachment trial of former President Trump start on Tuesday and Republicans are making it clear, even before they’re gaveled in, that they believe the result is predetermined. 

“It’s a partisan farce,” Sen. Rand Paul, R-Ky., said of the impeachment effort on “Fox News Sunday.” Paul added that he does not believe it’s possible Trump will be convicted. 

“Zero chance of conviction,” Paul said when asked if he thinks there’s a chance the Senate could meet the 67-vote threshold to convict Trump. “Forty-five Republicans have said it’s not even a legitimate proceeding so it’s really over before it starts. As far as witnesses, I think unlikely to be witnesses; if they do want witnesses, there’s going to be so much evidence that the president had nothing to do with this.”

Indeed, Paul last month raised a point of order in the Senate alleging that the impeachment trial is unconstitutional. This forced a vote and only five Republicans joined the Senate’s 50 Democrats in saying that the trial is constitutionally allowed to move forward. That means that 12 Republicans would have to change their minds on whether the trial is constitutional for Democrats to have even a chance of convicting Trump.

Sen. Chris Murphy, D-Conn. ‒ who is in favor of convicting Trump and made the case on “Fox News Sunday” that the Senate has a responsibility to hold a trial of the former president ‒ even allowed that Paul makes a reasonable point that the trial is unconstitutional. 

“I admit this is of course a matter of first impression and so I don’t think the case that Senator Paul is making is a ridiculous one,” he said. 

Other top Republicans also believe Trump is highly unlikely to be convicted, which if it does happen, could result in him being barred from holding office in the future.

“They know that this has no chance of winning. There’s no chance of the president actually being convicted here,” Trump 2020 senior adviser Jason Miller said on Fox News Sunday. “This is designed to try to implement political pain, so to speak, over the course of a week, maybe a week and a half, and then they’re going to move on. They’re not even taking this seriously.”

Stalin has come back to life and he is running the editorial room at the New York Times

 Donald McNeil is a famous American reporter for the New York Times, where he has worked for 45 years and had just been nominated for the Pulitzer Prize for his articles on the pandemic.

Two years ago, McNeil led a group of high school students on a Times-affiliated trip to Peru. Subsequently, a handful of students and some parents complained that McNeil, who is white, had used the word "nigger" to repeat a story and that he had rejected the idea that there is a "white privilege".

What is the real story? McNeil was asked at dinner by a student if he thought a classmate of his should be suspended for a video made when she was twelve in which she used a racial slur. To understand what was in the video, McNeil used the insult himself .Therefore, the journalist did not want to use the word to offend, but to understand in what context the word had been used. That's enough to be destroyed.

"It is now the official policy of the New York Times that for some words intent does not matter, it only takes one strike to sink a 47-year career," wrote Reason's Matt Welch.

Two years ago the Times investigated the complaints, scolded McNeil and closed the case. End of story? No, because days ago The Daily Beast website learned of the complaints and wrote about the case.

150 Times reporters said they were "offended" by the comments reported by their colleague McNeil and complained that they had not been consulted at the time. Times editor Dan Baquet reneged on the 2019 decision, denounced "racism and discrimination of all kinds" and pushed McNeil out.

And it is certainly not the first case. “By now Twitter is running the newspaper”. It is with these words a year ago another journalist, Bari Weiss, resigned from the Times.

Not only that, but to try to calm the situation, the reporter had written a pathetic letter of apology, which Andrew Sullivan compared to the "confessions" that the Khmer Rouge extorted from prisoners. "This sounds like a Bolshevik at his trial of him farce that he admits he betrayed the revolution even though he never wanted to betray the revolution because he loves the revolution," comments Vanity Fair's Peter Savodnik.

It is the story of Arthur Koestler's “Darkness at Noon”, the Rubascëv case, the tale of a former Soviet commissioner who himself ends up in the dock and who will "confess" to crimes he was not guilty of just as the people he had accused did.

The liberal press is daily less and less liberal.

Giulio Meotti is, an Italian journalist with Il Foglio, writes a twice-weekly column for Arutz Sheva. He is the author, in English, of the book "A New Shoah", that researched the personal stories of Israel's terror victims, published by Encounter and of "J'Accuse: the Vatican Against Israel" published by Mantua Books, in addition to books in Italian. His writing has appeared in publications, such as the Wall Street Journal, Gatestone, Frontpage and Commentary.

Shomer Shabbos Trump Attorney Withdraws Request to Pause Impeachment Trial

 

An attorney for former President Donald Trump has withdrawn his already-granted request that the impeachment trial be paused during the Jewish Sabbath, according to reports.

Trump impeachment attorney David Schoen, an observant Jew, sent a letter to Senate leaders on Monday reversing course, asking that the trial continue on Friday night and Saturday to avoid delays, according to Fox News reporter Chad Pergram.

Schoen, in the letter which was obtained by Pergram, noted he “will not participate during the Sabbath; but the role I would have played will be fully covered to the satisfaction of the defense team.”

His initial request was granted by Senate leaders, who announced Monday the impeachment trial would be suspended by 5 p.m. Friday and reconvene on Sunday.

It was not immediately clear if Schoen’s withdrawal will lead to a change in the schedule of the impeachment, which begins Tuesday afternoon with arguments on its constitutionality.

ZAKA Leader Who Saved Baby In 2001 Beis Yisrael Suicide Attack Attends His Engagement 19 Years Later

 



In March 2002 a terrible terror attack took place in the Beis Yisrael neighborhood, as a suicide bomber dressed like a chareidi exploded himself, killing 10 people including six children and injuring more than 60 including a pregnant woman who lost the twins she was carrying. Many Israelis however remember from this attack the picture of Bentzi Oiring, the head of the Jerusalem branch of ZAKA, holding an injured baby in his hands.

The baby had been among those lying injured but a fire engine at the scene was nervous that there would be another explosion as a fire was raging at the scene and did not let people go past. Oiring however slipped away from the firemen and took the baby away with him just before another explosion occurred, thus saving his life.

This week, exactly 19 years after the terrible explosion, the baby, who grew up as Shimon Levy, got engaged and Bentzi Oiring came to celebrate and to tell the miraculous story of his survival.

1 in 100 people over the age of 60 in the Charedi sector have died from the coronavirus.


Prof. Eran Segal of the Weizmann Institute today (Monday) published data on deaths from the coronavirus among people over the age of 60 among the various ethnic groups which make up Israeli society.

According to data published by Prof. Segal, since the beginning of the coronavirus pandemic, 1 in 100 people over the age of 60 in the haredi sector have died from the coronavirus.

The Arab sector has also been hit hard by the coronavirus, with 1 in 140 people over the age of 60 in the Arab sector in Israel dying from the virus.

Looking at the general public in the State of Israel, 1 in 350 people over the age of 60 has died from the coronavirus. The data showed that 93% of those who died of the coronavirus were over the age of 60.

Prof. Segal said: "If the level of morbidity in the general population was the same as in the haredi sector, it could have amounted to an additional 7,600 deaths compared to today from the general sector aged 60 and over."
