Bravo!~
To be clear: @NYGovCuomo and @NYCMayor are deliberately attacking Jews. They do this because they believe it is a winning tactic for rallying their supporters. This means anti-Jewish bigotry is so bad in New York that it has become a means to mobilize political support. https://t.co/UhWGygeiJR

Catholic League Decries Andrew Cuomo’s ‘Tyrannical Edict’ Targeting Orthodox Jews
Catholic League president Bill Donohue has censured New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo for his malicious targeting of Orthodox Jews in a recent edict against the coronavirus.
Story continues below advertisementBy: Thomas D. Williams, PD.D, October 7, 2020:
In a new autocratic move, Mr. Cuomo plans to “shut down all churches, synagogues and schools — private, religious, and public — in an attempt to quell the spread of the disease,” Dr. Donohue notes.
“We know religious institutions have been a problem,” Cuomo threatened. “If you’re not willing to live with these rules, then I’m going to close the synagogues,” in reference to an uptick in coronavirus infections in Orthodox Jewish neighborhoods in New York.
AP reported Monday that many Orthodox Jews “feel the city is singling them out for criticism.”
“People are very turned off and very burned out,” said Yosef Hershkop, a Hasidic Jew from Brooklyn who works for a chain of urgent-care centers. “It’s not like we’re the only people in New York getting COVID.”
The governor also warned that he would deploy the police to enforce his edict. If there are too many people entering a house of worship, he said, “the state police officer is down the block, and he will come help you.”
Donohue said that the authoritarian language employed by Cuomo was “chilling” and has extended to Catholic churches and schools as well.
There are two major problems with Cuomo’s order, Donohue added. First, “his authority to execute it is in serious doubt” and second, “his decision to blanket Catholic churches and schools—where there are no problems—is discriminatory.”
Donohue has also underscore Cuomo’s hypocritical double standard in permitting violent mobs to go on “a rampage attacking innocent people, destroying property, looting, and tying up traffic in an illegal demonstration” last June, while making a show of force by cracking down on people of faith.
Last summer, both New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio and Gov. Cuomo “expressed sympathy with the thugs,” Donohue said, and police were ordered to stand down.
In late June, U.S. District Judge Gary Sharpe issued a preliminary injunction saying that by allowing the protests, de Blasio and Cuomo were “encouraging what they knew was a flagrant disregard of the outdoor limits and social distancing rules,” Donohue observes.
Cuomo’s duplicity is also in evidence in his contempt for Catholic churches and schools, which he has penalized despite the fact that there has been no spike in coronavirus in any Catholic church or school in the Archdiocese of New York or the Diocese of Brooklyn.
“Why is he penalizing Catholic institutions, which are not a problem, but is allowing commercial establishments in these same neighborhoods to conduct business as usual?” Donohue asks. This is “a profound injustice” to the Catholic community.
Last March 25, Cuomo ordered recovering coronavirus patients to be sent to nursing homes, leading to over 4,300 deaths, a measure branded “a death sentence,” Donohue notes. Cuomo has since sought “to compensate for his initial incompetence by shutting down New York indefinitely.”
“The man is a wreck,” Donohue concludes, and his “politicization of Covid-19 is a national disgrace.”

This is an attempt at a Coup d’etat, plain and simple. They failed at the voting poll, fake charges Hillary the FBI, CIA, Obama, Impeachment. Now if they fail again with the vote, that their prognosticators claims they’re ahead double digits, they got their universal mail in vote rife for malfesance; they’ll move to the 25th Amendment. Have they no shame? No! They’ve said by any means. This statement is very scary. What if their 25th Amendment Strategy goes South. Then I can imagine the unimagineable. The Dems are walking on eggshells and may find their leaders in prison.
Jack: I agree, and I cannot see how the 25th will “help” the Dems ‘get rid’ of Trump. It has NEVER been invoked to turf out a President, and it is way too shaky to really work. The law and the logic just don’t support using the 25th in this case.
So I agree, the Dems really do look desperate.
This is election strategy, calling the President mentally incompetent because he is on medicine for COVID-19, including dexamethasone, which is a commonly used corticosteroid, not a performance enhancing drug.
This is in the same category as politicized science, Scientific American, owned by Nature Group, which is a UK company, endorsing Biden, and now the newest, The New England
Journal of Medicine, endorsing Biden over Trump because of his handling of the coronavirus pandemic, despite Trump essentially doing what the scientists recommended most of the time, including the widespread shutdowns, which the virus likely didn’t respect anyway, and the death toll being about two hundred thousand rather than the two million as projected by the original computer models.
The problem is the scientific community largely failed in the approach to the pandemic, being unprepared, CDC being completely incompetent, wrong to the point they were responsible for the widespread dissemination of the virus with contaminated test kits violating ordinary preparation procedures,
Trump actually had to cut the red tape, get the private sector involved and try to get manufacturing for ventilators and personal protective gear mobilized.
Trump also got the U S out of WHO, which is the liberal community pet, because they lied, along with Communist China, early on about the virus for political purposes.
So expect politicization of science by the liberal affiliated groups, for their own purposes.
They don’t give a d*** about jobs, ordinary people, people’s livelihood, and the catastrophe their widespread shutdowns have caused, in the name of “science”.
Steven: “The problem is the scientific community largely failed in the approach to the pandemic.”
Yes, they failed in many ways. But please remember that this epidemic is by far the most studied and most carefully handled epidemic in human history, by far.
The 2009 H1N1 swine flu epidemic was badly handled, and it just went away on its own. Previous epidemics mostly went away on their own, or were only responded to sluggishly over many years. The Spanish flu 1918 went away on its own, smallpox was wiped out after many decades of work, and polio took a long time to even be diagnosed. TB is still around.
This is the first time that a microbe is attacked like a war, and it’s working pretty well. Infection rates are high, but most people don’t know anyone who is infected. And mortality rates in the USA are SO LOW that they are almost undetectable in the US population. Every day, about 7,700 die in the USA from ALL causes [CDC data]. Multiply that by 365 to get the average annual, ‘all causes’ mortality. BUT the all causes mortality for 2020 so far, is LOWER than it was in 2019 ! Does this mean that Covid-19 is having NO effect on mortality? I don’t know, and the CDC does not know either. So for sure, Covid-19 is not as lethal as the Spanish Flu was.
The worst problems happen when scientists and politicos lie about their knowledge and capabilities. For example, they have to admit that we don’t really know how effective masks are in the real world. Etc.
They can not wait for 3 month, because Trump has enough material to arrest them immediately for treason. DNC worked with Russian Agent to get the dossier and are working with China now to rig the elections.
Her mental status and Biden’s mental status should be checked first. He is demented and she is criminally insane.
tatka: Yes, exactly. And Pelosi plans a ‘ commission’ to examine Trump’s ‘fitness’. But the 25th has never been tested this way, so the commission will set new precedent for what ‘fitness’ for office really is. And if having the sniffles is inadequate ‘fitness’, then half the Dems in power are not ‘fit’. Biden is demented, and Harris is sick in the head too, in different way. When confronted with a simple logic problem, she just shakes her head, laughs, and makes funny faces.
But the ‘fitness’ issue is even worse than that for the Dems. ‘Bad’ House Representatives can be fired, expelled from the House, even if they were duly elected. This is rarely done. But these new fitness criteria could also be used to label crazy reps as ‘bad’, and fire them. The Dems would lose 10% of their Representatives in the House!

Is ‘tatka’ short for Tatiana?
The House alone, cannot do a damned thing.
Talk is cheap. Just look at how we’ve been promised full declassification for a few years.
Talk is cheap.
Peeloosi and Bidet’s mental status is clear:
They know that they are corrupt and electing one of their own is the only way to keep it under the rug.
They don’t give a damn about the country, or even about their party. They have to keep power to stay out of jail.
Michigan Gov. Whitmer blamed white supremacists for the kidnap attempt, but those “right-wing militia” turned out to be anti-Trump left-wing anarchists. Brandon Caserta, one of anarchists who was arrested for plotting to kidnap Whitmer, actually hates President Trump and is on video calling Trump a “tyrant.”.. “Trump is not your friend dude,” Trump is “a tyrant”, and Trump is an “enemy.”

Was “Fargo” the first word that crossed anyone else’s mind when they first saw this story?
White supremacist idiots are just idiots! Democrat leftist idiots are just idiots! Let the idiots fight it out and we Americans will take care of the rest!
You INBREDS could FU_K up a wet dream.
Well I don’t intend to take that personally…
You are the worst idiot on here, you dunce troll.
You DEMOCRAT NAZIS, will be taken care of very very soon, when you least expect it.
Hi, robbi. Did your best buddy, joey bidet, not take your phone call again. And, did your fave BFF Nancy “Drinker of the House” Pelosi tell you that she couldn’t meet you for drinks this afternoon?
You’ve had a bad day, all around, haven’t you little robbi?
I’am so sorry you were WHELPED from a SWINE (pig) that was IMPREGNATED by a DOG (canine). I guess I would be out of sorts also just finding this out.
Well, little robbi, since you’re the product of a descendant of the cross-breeding of monkeys with pigs, that bred a cockroach …. You poor poor little thing. What is left for me to say, other than I truly pity you. You poor, poor little thing.
Now be a good little Democrat Party member and stop ATTEMPTING to address your cultural and intellectual betters.
Hey JERKOFF. I’ve been a REPUBLICAN since the beginning of time. Perhaps you should return to whatever third country you were WHELPED. Apparently you don’t understand the English language
Hello, little robbi. What is it about you muslimas that makes you all so very angry, at how this moniker ridicules YOUR prophet?
Obviously, ASE (American Standard English) is not your “mother tongue. Firs, little muslima, when addressing someone, it is not followed by a period(.). Rather, it is followed by a comma (,).
However, that’s to be expected out of a somali muslima, such as you.
You poor, poor little thing. I truly pity you.
No one can justify this scum! TRUMP 2020!
The button above Jews for Biden is actually more true for Liberal Non Religious or Reform possibly conservative Jews. Most of the Orthodox Jews will be voting for Trump/Pence. Perhaps this another reason Cuomo/de Blasio are slamming, punishing and singling out Orthodox Jews. The squeeze!
As far as tormenting the Catholics it would be best for a Catholic to write in since I am illprepared to address his motivation other than they are religious.
Letter “N” in DNC is for NAZI.
Cuomo is Italian Fascist and Wilhelm (DeBlasio) is the Nazi.
Trump made the Peace Deal in Israel.
That’ll trigger the Messiah’s Coming.
They all agree on that be it Ivanka/Jared, or Pence/McEnany.
Everybody can see that coming.
Gee, Anthony, you genius, are you including Muslims, Black Lives Matter and Antifa criminals in this group who are NOT paying attention?
Barr just said they’ve got enough goods on Obama Hillary to take them to court for Russia Meddling.
Trump’s going to waste Biden big time in the next few weeks til the election!!!!
I think we could “ride shotgun” for Trump and have his back by revealing Obama’s forged birth certificate.
The proof that Obama’s the Antichrist is also available.
BTW I’ve got Obama’s real name from his Kansas kin and it’s Barry Parks /Rosa Parks’ nephew and THAT’S THE BIGGEST HEADLINE NEWS IN THE LAST 2500 YEARS.
I love these people more than ever!
Who’s the white guy on the right? Are they black or white? Where do those blacks come from? Not Europe, none of them in Europe.
https://www.theguardian.com/world/2013/apr/02/americans-obama-anti-christ-conspiracy-theories
One in four Americans think Obama may be the antichrist and one in eight say HE’S THE ANTICHRIST 100% FOR SURE!!!!!!!!! AND THEY’RE 150% RIGHT. OBAMA’S LUCIFER-IN-PERSON aka the ANTICHRIST/SATAN-IN-PERSON. Those of you that stand up now and say that, will be saved but the others will doomed so close to the election and with the bad polling. If you don’t stand up and defend your turf now you’re gone. Bye. U gone. We’re now gathering the Chosen Ones and there are few seats for many requests. be one of the number but the offer is for now. Not later. Be a Chosen One TODAY (not tomorrow)…hurry. Join us the Chosen Ones. We’re the Anointed Ones and YOU ARE NOT. Join us now and enter a new beautiful life of wisdom and get out of your hole.
There is never any criticism for Muslims. They are treated like royalty.
Deblazio gave Muslims free halal meals delivered at taxpayer expense for their last holiday. – over 500,000 of them. NYC still claims to be bankrupt too! Jews and Christians were ignored for Easter and Passover. Were Jews given free delivered meals for Rosh Hashanah?
Check out Michael savages site for a video of a large religious celebration of half naked men in the streets of NYC.
No issues cuz not Jewish. I don’t think it should be illegal for them cuz this is the USA. But we want equality. Don’t round Jews up and shut them down when they dance and celebrate a holiday. While waving don’t tread on me, TRUMP 2020 and US flags. Also they were calling “Blue Lives Matter” and respectful of the police.
I will do that. He’s better than Rush as far as I am concerned.
Never and never will.
Buddhists neither.
We’re still waiting for our fried noodles DeBlazio/Hitler.
If you could choose who to share a prison cell with for your life sentence, who would you choose?
Would you prefer a black lady like your wife or a black homosexual Chicago criminal illegal undocumented (you’d have to change his name from Obama to “whateveryourgoddammednameisthereboynowcometoheelboyheel“) like Obama? (he’s also the God-dammed Antichrist btw fyi Deblazio/Stalin.)
A Minister, a Priest and a Rabbi . . . . .
“the state police officer is down the block, and he will come help you.” Oh, sort of like when certain camp guards told Jews ‘the showers are for your own good. We’ll help you in if you have problems.’
Cuomo is indeed a thug, but comparisons to Nazi leaders are cheap.
Italian Fascism, perhaps, is a better fit – if one must look to pre-war analogies.
Moreover, Cuomo is governor, again, because the electorate in New York is itself debased.
Consider that Cuomos’s recent Democrat challenger was Cynthia Nixon.
Consider also, after all, that New York state sends Gillibrand and Schumer to the Senate, AOC to the House, Spitzer, Weiner and Sheldon Silver to prison – and DeBlasio to Gracie mansion.
Is it any wonder that Cuomo, a self-serving primitive, is calling the shots?
Wall Street revenues have mitigated the mismanagement for years – but in the end, the piper must be paid: six-thousand + residents killed in nursing homes was the first real installment.
The crash of the criminal justice system was next.
Does Bill Donahue, God bless him, or anyone else, for that matter, think that what comes next will be better, or less hostile to people of faith?
What the hell right does ANY politician have to close ANY venue at this point on the excuse of the WuFluManchu virus? The “pandemic” has been contained and anyone with a backbone should be demanding an immediate lifting of the onerous lockdowns, mask-wearing edicts, and ridiculous “stay safe” plexiglass and floor traffic arrows in businesses throughout this country. Until enough members of the public start growing a spine and telling the politcians “NO”, this regimentation will continue until everyone is sunk too deep in “learned behavior” to find their way back to true normal, not “new normal”.
Since Cuomo and DeBlasio in New York are telling my Community that they will permanently close down Our synagogues, if we don’t tow the line; I imagine they plan to exercise much more draconian edicts. It always starts with scapegoating us because some people think the Public at Large will go along with it or not care; it never ends there. NAZI Germany is a Prime Example. It move from Jews to Gypsies to Slavs not to mention Political persecutions and deportations to either Concentration Camps or Labor Camps. There are other examples in Europe Spain, France, the Balkans, England. So, now we have a brazen new Anti-Semite trying to divide the Jewish Community with the help of some of our own, and this singling out of Our People will have reprucussions against our entire Community. Can you imagine Cuomo or De Blasio singling out the Muslim Community and threatening to close their Mosques. They cloister together as the rest of us. I doubt that they social distance in all Mosques. They are a bonded in faith as the rest of us fostered in community as a family. When they lay out their prayer mats and bow in prayer, I’d be hard pressed to believe they have markers keeping them separated. Prayer call comes 5 times a day and allowing for adequate space to accomadate everyone they need every inch. Yet, we can count on Mayor Bill de Blasio to shut his mouth since they match his political sentimentalities. He won’t stop close contact amongst maskless #BLM and #Antifa Rioters since he made a declaration he wouldn’t allow demonstration except for #BLM. So, we have 2 Leading Democrats in New York, Governor Cuomo and Mayor Bill De Blasio who allow for Special Class Citizens to defy their edict because of Political considerations. On the other hand these two Quislings have shown their Anti-Semitism in Word and Deed towards Jews and Catholics. Sure they will try to relate it to a specific incident or two but ask yourself, have they done the same towards other groups singling them out? No! Tradition these two groups are relatively easy to villify and gain popular support but Andy and Red Bill, it’s not working this time. You’ve shown your prejudices once too many times. @simonwiesenthal @ADL @JGreenblattADL @StandAgainstAnti-Semitism
Be careful, the socialist government is out to destroy religion. Como and Deblasio are of the same mind ! Both should be charged its their crimes and tried.
,
Thank God the catholic league is speaking out for the Jews. I don’t hear a peep from the religious liberal Jewish organizations. They don’t care because they’re not Jews in their hearts!
Il Duce Cuomo,
Make sure to break a lot of glass. Historically speaking, your “base” has always really lapped that kind of thing up.
Just read an article in Beyond Today that pointed out that BLM is run by Thousand Circuits, a Marxist group. The agenda is clear, divide and conquer. And of course they hate religion of any brand. My own opinion is that there is nothing as base or despicable ad Antisemitism.
“FREDO” CUOMO = NAZI.
When do you want to go fishing ? Call me.
How about closing down mosques, churches, temples, sweat lodges, druids, and so on. See how he won’t touch them. I wonder why?
Now Killer Cuomo is blaming the recent protests in Brooklyn against his fascistic policies, on the Trump campaign. Yeah, right.
