Newly Elected Senator Anti-semite Raphael Warnock of Georgia Under Investigation For Potential Voter Fraud

 

Georgia election officials say they’re referring for possible criminal prosecution a potential voter fraud case involving a group recently linked to one of the state’s new Democratic U.S. senators — The New Georgia Project.

U.S. Sen. Raphael Warnock, a Democrat elected to the Senate last month, is named as a respondent in the case because of his former ties to the group, The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reported.

It’s among 35 cases involving potential violations of election law being sent from the State Election Board to the attorney general or local prosecutors, Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger said in a statement Thursday.

The New Georgia Project, which bills itself as a nonpartisan effort to register voters, is accused of submitting 1,268 voter registration applications after the 10-day deadline to do so. The missed deadline caused voters to be disenfranchised in the March 19, 2019, special election, according to Raffensperger’s statement.

It’s among 35 cases involving potential violations of election law that the State Election Board is sending to the attorney general or local prosecutors, Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger said in a statement Thursday.

Warnock was listed as the CEO for the New Georgia Project at the time, but the organization says his actual position was chairman of its board. He resigned from that post on Jan. 28, 2020.

Warnock and the New Georgia Project didn’t immediately respond to the newspaper’s request for comment.

The New Georgia Project was founded by Democrat Stacey Abrams in 2014. It has registered nearly 500,000 people from underrepresented communities to vote in Georgia. The group also advocates for civil and human rights “and works to advance justice on behalf of historically marginalized communities,” it said in a recent news release.

Also among the cases being referred to prosecutors, some of which date back several years: Four instances of felons voting or registering to vote; four cases of non-citizens voting or registering to vote; and one case of misplaced ballots during the 2020 general election, which didn’t change the outcome, Raffensperger said in a statement.

“Election fraud is not tolerated in Georgia. When there is evidence of it, the people responsible face prosecution,” said Raffensperger, chairman of the five-member election board.

“Georgia has multiple safeguards in place that allow our team of investigators to discover fraudulent voting,” he said. “They worked to catch the wrongdoing in these cases, and they maintain the security of Georgia elections.”

Anti-Vaxers Spread an Outrageous Lie ... Claiming Lady Doctor Miscarried Because Vaccine ...

 

More anti-vax depravity. This young doctor had a miscarriage 3 weeks "before" getting her vaccine. Anti-vaxxers on social media are spreading her picture around claiming that the vaccine caused her miscarriage!

This makes us believe that anything written or posted by an anti-vaxxer is false, doctored or grossly misleading

When VP Harris Joked About Killing Trump, Pence

 Vice President Kamala Harris once joked on national television about killing former President Donald Trump and former Vice President Mike Pence.

In a Twitter post Wednesday, political activist Jack Posobiec shared a video of Harris on “The Ellen DeGeneres Show” in early 2018.

The then-senator from California was asked a question that served as the setup for a kind of cage-match quip: If she had to be stuck in an elevator with Trump, Pence, or former U.S. Attorney General Jeff Sessions, which one would she pick?

“Does one of us have to come out alive?” Harris responded.

Harris laughed loudly as the show’s crowd applauded enthusiastically.

DIMWITTED DEMS IMPEACH THEMSELVES WITH STALINIST SHOW-TRIAL

 GOP Sen. Rand Paul and Rep. Jim Jordan are accusing Democrats of delaying urgent legislation in Congress by pursuing a “political impeachment charade” against former President Donald Trump in two op-eds published Tuesday.

Ahead of the first day of proceedings in his second impeachment trial, the Republican lawmakers urged the Senate to quickly acquit Trump and move on from what they called a constitutionally-dubious attempt to impeach the former president, who is now a private citizen, over his role in the Jan. 6 Capitol riot.

Paul (R-Ky.) blasted Democrats for pushing their own brand of violence toward Republicans and Trump allies, and said they were silent during rioting in 2020 and the near-fatal 2017 shooting of House Majority Whip Steve Scalise.

“I’ve spoken out against the words of many on my side, including those of President Trump,” Paul wrote in the opinion piece published Tuesday by Fox News.

“But where is the other side? Where were they all last year when political violence ravaged our cities, when people could barely dine or walk the streets in many places? When businesses burned and people were injured or killed by mobs?” he continued.

“Where were they when it was shown the political rhetoric of Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., and the rest of the socialist left inspired the shooter who fired at Republicans at our baseball practice, nearly killing Rep. Steve Scalise, R-La.?” he wrote.

Paul and his wife were themselves surrounded by a mob of Black Lives Matter protesters in Washington, D.C. in Aug. 2020 and said they feared for their lives during the ordeal.

Paul also lashed out at House Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) for warning two Supreme Court justices they would “pay the price” if they voted to restrict abortion rights last March.

Paul forced a vote last week to dismiss the trial on the grounds that it is unconstitutional. Forty-five Republicans supported the measure, suggesting Trump will almost certainly be acquitted.

Rep. Jim Jordan of Ohio, an ardent supporter of Trump on Capitol Hill, also blasted Democrats for pursuing the trial while the country faces the urgent challenges of the coronavirus pandemic.

Echoing the arguments made by Trump’s lawyers, Jordan said the FBI was already aware of threats to the Capitol before the president addressed supporters on Jan. 6.

“Democrats ignored these facts. They also ignored the Constitution. Democrats afforded President Trump no due process in the House of Representatives,” he wrote in another Fox News piece published Tuesday.

“In fact, there was no process whatsoever – no witnesses, no depositions, no hearings, no cross-examinations,” he went on, noting that Democrats had moved to impeach Trump at least nine times since January 2017.

“In their desperation to attack President Trump, Democrats are trampling on other important constitutional rights,” he wrote.

New app allows users to block 800 New York Times journalists on Twitter to ‘fight against disinformation’

 

A new app hit the market that lets users block New York Times journalists from appearing on Twitter feeds in a bid to “fight against disinformation.”

“It’s time to block,” the Block the New York Times app’s Twitter account tweeted on Monday. “Twitter users have begun mass-blocking New York Times-linked accounts to control the flood of corporate disinformation online. Now, a new app automates the process.”

The app allows users to block 800 corporate journalists associated with the New York Times.

The tweet from the app’s account links to a page set up to appear similar to the New York Times’s homepage but instead mocks the outlet with hoax stories, including one titled, “Ten Thousand Typos A Year: One Man’s Quest to Correct the Record of the Paper of Record.” The links on the website then guide users to download the app.

“Long marketed as the ‘paper of record,’ the New York Times Company now faces an economic and reputational reckoning,” the app’s creators wrote. “Employees are revolting, traffic is plummeting, colleagues are scathing, and readers are blocking.”

The New York Times has come under increased scrutiny in recent years for bias, which was inflamed by former President Donald Trump’s repeated attacks of it being a “fake newspaper” and practicing “bad journalism.”

Reaction on twitter has been mixed, with expressing the view that as much as they loathe the New York Times, they do not believe in blocking. Even without blocking, the associated website blocknyt.com is informative. It features articles on NY Times abuses of power, retractions, and errors of omission in reporting the news. And the site uses a masthead that looks just like the NY Times itself. For which it may well get sued .

The New York Times did not immediately respond to the Washington Examiner’s request for comment

New Israeli drug cured 29 of 30 moderate/serious COVID cases in days

 

A new coronavirus treatment being developed at Tel Aviv’s Ichilov Medical Center has successfully completed phase 1 trials and appears to have helped numerous moderate-to-serious cases of COVID-19 quickly recover from the disease, the hospital said Friday.

Hailing a “huge breakthrough,” the hospital said Prof. Nadir Arber’s EXO-CD24 substance had been administered to 30 patients whose conditions were moderate or worse, and all 30 recovered — 29 of them within three to five days.

The medicine fights the cytokine storm — a potentially lethal immune overreaction to the coronavirus infection that is believed to be responsible for much of the deaths associated with the disease.

It uses exosomes — tiny carrier sacs that shuttle materials between cells — to deliver a protein called CD24 to the lungs, which Arber has spent decades researching.

“This protein is located on the surface of cells and has a well known and important role in regulating the immune system,” said researcher Shiran Shapira of Arber’s lab.

The protein helps calm down the immune system and curb the storm.

“The preparation is inhaled once a day for a few minutes, for five days,” Arber said. “The preparation is directed straight to the heart of the storm — the lungs — so unlike other formulas… which selectively restrain a certain cytokine, or operate widely but cause many serious side effects, EXO-CD24 is administered locally, works broadly and without side effects.”

The medicine will now move on to further trial phases, but hospital officials were already hailing it as a possible game-changer in fighting serious COVID-19 illness.

Ichilov director Roni Gamzu, the former coronavirus czar, said the research “is advanced and sophisticated and may save coronavirus patients. The results of the phase 1 trial are excellent and give us all confidence in the method [Arber] has been researching in his lab for many years.”

He added: “I am proud that at Ichilov we are… possibly bringing a blue and white remedy to a terrible global pandemic.”

Divorcing In COVID

by  Miriam Miedzinski

I am sure many couples are separated, or even getting divorced as a result of the the many stresses that the coronavirus came along with.

There must also be the fair few who got divorced during the pandemic, having initiated the process before the pandemic took over the world.

I am one of those who found myself standing in a court room with a judge far away from me, wearing a mask.

I found myself looking at my now ex husband in the eyes, literally, as that was all I could see with most of his face covered by a mask as we parted ways.

We finished the legal dealings and walked out of the room.  Squirt, squirt, we doused our hands in hand sanitizer, and headed out the building.

It was weird.  I mean it would have been no matter what, but it felt extra weird.

Israel set to limit access to cafes, culture and more to those who didn't vaccinate

 The Health Ministry is reportedly closing in on a plan to spur more Israelis to get vaccinated by bringing back certain leisure activities in the near future, but making them hard to access for those who have not gotten shots.

Channel 12 News reported Wednesday that officials are looking to limit access to gyms, hotels, restaurants and cultural and sports events for those who refuse to be vaccinated, while the inoculated will be able to enter freely.

As it is legally problematic to completely ban those who do not want to take the shots, a path will be available to those with fresh negative COVID-19 test results from the past 48 hours.

But health officials hope to find ways to make getting tested more difficult — thereby further encouraging more people to go for the vaccine — including charging for tests, limiting their numbers and cutting back on testing locations.

In the last three days, only about 65,000 Israelis a day have been vaccinated with their first shots, even though vaccinations are now available to all Israelis aged 16 and over.

Unnamed senior Health Ministry officials told the network they were working on formulating an exact list of activities that would hard to access for the non-vaccinated.

One official told the network, “If they are required to pay a few dozen shekels [fora COVID test] every couple days so they can enter their workplace, gym or restaurant, it will encourage them to get vaccinated.”

Israel’s Manufacturers Association has asked government officials to be able to put workers who refuse vaccinations on unpaid leave, Channel 12 also said. The association was said to request permission to demand non-vaccinated workers present a negative coronavirus test every 72 hours.

Facebook removes R' Amnon Yitzchak's anti-vaxxer group that peddled fake news

 

As Facebook ramps up its fight against rampant misinformation about COVID-19 vaccines, the social media giant on Tuesday deleted a group associated with popular Israeli rabbi Amnon Yitzhak that peddled fake news about the pandemic and the immunizations.

The group, which had over 12,000 members, featured false information about the virus and the vaccines’ efficacy and safety, alongside conspiracy videos and efforts to thwart the country’s rapid vaccination drive, according to the Ynet news site.

Amnon Yitzhak is known for convincing hordes of secular Israelis to embrace religious observance by warning them, among other methods, of the grisly fate that awaits them in hell should they persist in their errant ways.

The rabbi, who boasts a sizable online presence and following, launched a failed bid in 2013 to enter the Knesset as the head of his own political party.

Facebook still has a series of other groups and pages associated with Yitzhak, with tens of thousands of members, many of which are also peddling misinformation about vaccines. These include his own online TV channel called “Virus TV.” They were being reviewed by the social network as well, Ynet reported.

The report said Yitzhak’s videos were still up on YouTube and were regularly being shared on WhatsApp and Telegram.

Iranian scientist was killed using one-ton gun

 Mohsen Fakhrizadeh, the Iranian nuclear scientist who was shot dead near Tehran in November was killed by a one-ton automated gun that was smuggled into the country piece-by-piece by the Mossad, the British-based Jewish Chronicle revealed on Wednesday.

According to the report, the 20-plus spy team, which comprised both Israeli and Iranian nationals, carried out the high-tech hit after eight months of painstaking surveillance, intelligence sources disclosed.

Israeli analysts have concluded that Fakhrizadeh's death has extended the period of time it would take Iran to achieve a nuclear bomb from about three-and-a-half months to two years — with senior intelligence figures privately putting it as high as five years.

Fakhrizadeh, 59, known as the “father of the bomb”, lost his life in a burst of 13 bullets as he travelled with his wife and 12 bodyguards in Absard, near Tehran, on November 27 last year.

Neither his wife nor any of his security team were harmed in the attack, which was carried out using a hyper-accurate automated weapon in order to protect civilians from collateral damage, according to JC.

The report confirmed that the Mossad spy agency was behind the hit, which was carried out by mounting the killing device in a Nissan pickup.

The weapon, operated remotely by agents on the ground as they observed the target, was so heavy because it included a bomb that destroyed the evidence after the killing, according to JC.

It was carried out by Israel alone, without American involvement, the report added. US officials were only given a “little clue, like checking the water temperature” prior to the attack, according to top international intelligence sources.

Iran has repeatedly baccused Israel of directing Fakhrizadeh’s death, calling his elimination an act of "state terrorism".

Senior Iranian military officials have vowed to avenge the killing of the top nuclear scientist.

 In recent months, the Palestinian Authority has paved a new road near the altar of the Biblical Prophet Joshua on Mount Ebal, north of the city of Nablus (Shechem) in Samaria.

The road is intended to connect the village of Atzira a-Shamalia and the city of Nablus. In response to an urgent question on the subject submitted by MK Michal Shir in the Knesset about two months ago, Minister in the Defense Ministry Michael Biton replied that the works were approved by the Civil Administration and that there was no damage to the archeological site.

The 'Shomrin al Hanetzach' (preservers of eternity) organization has documented that in recent weeks the Palestinian Authority has carried out work with heavy machinery that has breached the site.

Stones making up one side of an ancient fence were crushed using a gravel crusher to serve as a substrate for the new road. The PA is operating unhindered due to the site's location in Area B.

The physical damage to the site is a direct continuation of the attitude PA's attitude towards the site over the years, who set themselves the goal of suppressing the Israeli presence and visits to the site. According to PA officials, identifying the site as a Jewish altar is a falsification of Palestinian history which they are working to combat. In the video, it can be seen that the stone was crushed knowingly and intentionally.

Israel’s Chareidim Reject Criticism, Defy Virus Rules

 

Mendy Moskowits, a member of the ultra-Orthodox Belz Hassidic sect in Jerusalem, doesn’t understand the uproar toward believers like him.

In recent weeks, ultra-Orthodox Jews have defied coronavirus restrictions by holding big funerals for beloved rabbis who died of COVID-19, celebrating large weddings, and continuing to send their children to schools. The gatherings have led to clashes with police and an unprecedented wave of public anger toward the religious community.

On Tuesday night, hundreds of ultra-Orthodox demonstrators protested lockdown restrictions, set dumpsters on fire, and faced off with police officers in Jerusalem.

Moskowits, like many other ultra-Orthodox faithful, says Israeli society doesn’t understand their way of life and has turned his community into a scapegoat.

“The media gives us, in my opinion, a very bad misrepresentation,” he said.

The ultra-Orthodox community makes up about 12% of Israel’s 9.3 million people. Gilad Malach, a researcher at the Israel Democracy Institute, says ultra-Orthodox believers accounted for over a third of the country’s COVID-19 cases in 2020. Among Israelis over 65, the community’s mortality rate was three times that of the general population, he added.

Health Ministry data show vaccination rates in ultra-Orthodox areas lag far behind the national average.

Efrat Brenner 19 Killed in by a Car Driven by Palestinian Arab

19-year-old Efrat Brenner, a resident of Yitzhar, was killed on Tuesday evening after she was hit by a Palestinian Arab car at the Yitzhar junction in Samaria.

Brenner (nee Ben Pinchas) was married only four months ago. She is survived by her husband, parents, seven sisters and three brothers.

She was married to the son of Rabbi Giora Brenner, the head of a yeshiva in Rehovot and president of the kollel in Givat Assaf.

United Hatzalah and Magen David Adom EMS personnel responded to the emergency and performed CPR on the woman but to no avail and her death was pronounced at the scene.

United Hatzalah volunteer EMT Menachem Halpern who was one of the first responders at the scene relayed: "When I arrived at the intersection I saw a young woman who had no signs of life. According to eye-witnesses, she had been hit by a car. I began CPR on her and attached a defibrillator. Sadly, she had suffered a full-system trauma and due to the severity of the injuries IDF medical personnel were forced to pronounce her death at the scene."

MDA paramedic Moshe Shimon said, "When we arrived at the scene, we saw the young woman lying on the side of the road unconscious. With the help of an IDF medical force, we performed medical tests on her, but were forced to determine her death at the scene."

The driver of the vehicle was detained at the scene for questioning and police traffic inspectors are investigating the circumstances of the incident. Soldiers and witnesses at the scene made it clear that there is no suspicion that the incident was an attack.

Kloizinbergers Learned from the Best As They Attack Filmmaker in their Netanya Neighborhood

The strained relations between secular and religious reached another boiling point yesterday - this time in the world of entertainment when a camera crew of a new film starring Maor Schweizer was attacked by residents of Netanya while filming in a haredi neighborhood. The attackers attacked the crew, threw objects at them and their cameras, and shouted insults at them.

Mako reports that the catalyst for the attack was a film about the culture of matchmaking in the haredi world. The main role is played by Amit Rahav, who plays in the series "The Rebel", and is familiar with the Haredi world. He arrived with actresses Liana Iyun and Naya Federman and director Maor Schweitzer, only to be greeted with considerable public outrage at the costumes involved.

Yaki Reisner, the film's producer, did not expect this reception when he came to shoot in the predominantly haredi Kiryat Sanz neighborhood, commented, "I think today, especially in light of the coronavirus crisis, people thought they were conducting some kind of surveillance.”

Yaki added that this is not the first time the photography team has entered a haredi neighborhood and said: "We have been filming for a month in Bnei Brak. There are always people watching, but it always goes smoothly. In Bnei Brak, people acted naturally and it was quite nice." This incident ended without damage or injuries when the production people chose not to confront the locals, and moved to film in another location in the city. The filming will continue as planned.

The Shocking Inhumanity of a Liberal toward a kind Trump supporter

 

Let’s all get acquainted over what a liberal media figure assures us is the latest philosophical crisis:

If your driveway is buried under thick snow, and your Trump-supporting neighbor plows it, for free and without even asking, are you to speak to him? Acknowledge him? Would saying “Thank you” be a betrayal of all your superior and infallible political beliefs?

Such is the quandary explored by Virginia Heffernan in a column for the Los Angeles Times. “What to Do with the Nice-Guy Trump Voter Next Door” has quickly gone viral, and not for the reasons Heffernan surely hoped.

Let’s imagine for one moment a role reversal, a Trump supporter cawing like this in the public square over a liberal neighbor’s kindness. Imagine the smug, snide commentary sure to stream from late-night talk show hosts and MSNBC pundits. The New York Times op-ed page would have fodder for days. “Deranged” and “mentally ill” would be the most common appellations.

“When someone helps you when you’re down, or snowed in, it’s almost impossible to regard them as a blight on the world,” Heffernan writes.

But no. After asking, “What do you do with one kind act after years of support for a man who showed near-murderous contempt toward most Americans?,” Heffernan compares her neighbor to Hezbollah, Louis Farrakhan and the Nazis — the latter while informing us that, as a teenager, she spent a year abroad with an “upper-middle class family” in France.

Oh, the classism disguised as virtue-signaling! It all reeks off the page or the screen or whatever may catch your falling tears of laughter.
