No offense to our Jewish forum members, but the Jewish community is the dumbest group of highly intelligent people when it comes to their voting habits.

agreed

I've never seen a block of voters behave the way they do

even ignoring the fact that they're New Yorkers, it boggles my mind that they can continue to vote for the most evil group of American's ever to exist - and they seem to do so with out even batting an eye

its almost like they want to be treated badly

I find it interesting that the Jewish people I have known who have lived in or were born in Israel all vote conservatively. Granted my sample size is relatively small, perhaps 100 or so families.

Well, I imagine it's rather eye-opening to find one's self in a country the size of Delaware, surrounded by people who really want to kill you.

American Jews do, in fact, tend to vote against their own interests. American Jews vote secularly, and they are overwhelmingly liberal, and who ever said that liberals make sense?

Even more baffling, given the Jewish people's experience with the National Socialist German Workers’ Party.

Leftists Warned Not to Plot Punishment for Trump Supporters

https://www.theepochtimes.com/...mpaign=mb-2020-11-20

Ronald Reagan biographer Craig Shirley has a message for Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.) and other progressive activists threatening to punish President Donald Trump’s backers for their political views.

“Tortious interference has been a law since before the Constitution. It is illegal, and has been for years for a third party to interfere with the legal commerce between one party and another,” Shirley told The Epoch Times on Nov. 19.

“If she is responsible for even one person in the United States not getting a job or getting fired and the boss says, ‘I’m not hiring you because of what AOC said,’ or ‘I’m not hiring you because of your politics,’ she has committed tortious interference and has opened herself up to massive litigation.”

Shirley was referring to the socialist New York congresswoman who was dubbed “AOC” by the media when she came out of nowhere to defeat veteran Rep. Joe Crowley in the Democratic primary in 2018.

“Is anyone archiving these Trump sycophants for when they try to downplay or deny their complicity in the future?” Ocasio-Cortez wrote in a tweet on Nov. 6. “I foresee decent probability of many deleted Tweets, writings, photos in the future.”

The purpose of the lists would be to track Trump’s appointees and supporters.

Hari Sevugan, a former Democratic National Committee (DNC) spokesman, responded to AOC by writing on Twitter, “You better believe it. We just launched the Trump Accountability Project to make sure anyone who took a paycheck to help Trump undermine America is held responsible for what they did.”

On its website, Sevugan’s group described its purpose as “to make sure those members of the Trump administration responsible for loosening the guardrails of our democracy are not rewarded with book deals, TV contracts, or six-figure salaries in the private sector based on that experience.”

Sevugan subsequently said his project would be idle, pending the outcome of Joe Biden’s promised effort to unify the country if he becomes president.

Elsewhere, in the days following the Nov. 3 election, other prominent voices on the left proposed various “truth and reconciliation commissions” to investigate the actions and statements of Trump appointees and supporters and to propose civil and/or criminal penalties for them.

University of Illinois Law Professor Colleen Murphy, for example, suggested on Nov. 18 that such a commission is needed because “the uncertainty surrounding the election—both in Trump’s refusal to concede and in the rhetoric and unfounded allegations calling into question its integrity—has generated questions and concerns in a lot of people’s minds about whether there will be a peaceful transition of power.”

And even before the election, such a commission was called for by Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) and others on the left, according to The Nation’s Elie Mystal.

Shirley is best known for his New York Times best-selling books on President Ronald Reagan, his 1976 and 1980 campaigns, and his eight years in the White House (1981–1989).

More recently, however, Shirley resurrected Citizens for the Republic (CFTR), the political advocacy organization that Reagan formed after his loss of the 1976 Republican presidential nomination to President Gerald Ford. Shirley serves as president of the revived CFTR.

Members of the board of directors of Shirley’s CFTR include former Attorney General Ed Meese, former Reagan White House Communications Director Mari Maseng Will, and former Federal Trade Commission Chairman Dan Oliver.
‘Do the Reverse’

Republicans in Congress are speaking out against AOC and others who are seeking to inflict retribution against Trump supporters and appointees.

“No matter how much Democrats talk about unity, the reality is that their goal is to bring cancel culture to Washington,” Rep. Ted Budd (R-N.C.) told The Epoch Times on Nov. 19.

“This list-making and these threats of retribution aren’t just an outrageous example of the radicalism of the socialist left, they also will forever damage the political culture of Congress and make it impossible to ever work with someone you disagree with,” Budd said.

Legal scholars interviewed by The Epoch Times agreed with Budd regarding the damage retributive actions would inflict upon the nation’s political culture.

“If Democrats want to be a majority party, they should listen attentively to what AOC says and then do the reverse,” said constitutional lawyer Walter Olson.

“Instead of keeping enemies lists, think of people on the other side as reachable. Stop trying to force politics into every realm of life. What wins on social media doesn’t win in the country,” Olson said.

“Come to think of it, this all makes good advice for Republicans too.”

Similarly, Institute for Free Speech President David Keating told The Epoch Times that it worries him that “one of the trends that we’ve seen in politics is to try to use the tools of government or the tools of private harassment to punish people with whom others disagree.”

To illustrate, Keating pointed to the threats of physical violence and other forms of harassment inflicted on attorneys representing Trump’s election fraud cases, and on two Republican members of the Wayne County, Michigan, Board of Elections, when they refused to support certifying election results due to their concerns about fraud.

“If the retribution just keeps ramping up after each election, it’s not just going to be on one side,” Keating warned.

Tripe. If you don't get hired for a position you rarely are ever told what the decision was based on. And if you are you are most likely being lied to. Oh, we just had a better qualified candidate. What employer in his right mind is going to say we didn't hire you because we think you are a Trumper or because of what AOC said. Roll Eyes

Goya Foods CEO: AOC Called For Boycott. Our Sales Jumped, So We Named Her Employee Of The Month

Goya Foods and president CEO Bob Unanue revealed that after Rep. Alexandria Cortez (D-NY) echoed a call for a boycott of Goya products back in July because Unanue supported President Trump, his company named her “Employee of the Month” because sales rose so dramatically.

Unanue had visited the White House, where he stated, “We’re all truly blessed at the same time to have a leader like President Trump, who is a builder.”

That prompted Julian Castro, former Housing and Urban Development secretary in the Obama administration, to tweet that Goya Foods “has been a staple of so many Latino households for generations. Now their CEO, Bob Unanue, is praising a president who villainizes and maliciously attacks Latinos for political gain. Americans should think twice before buying their products.”

Ocasio-Cortez chimed in, “Oh look, it’s the sound of me Googling ‘how to make your own Adobo.'”

Unanue was interviewed on The Michael Berry Show, where Berry commented:

When you see the radical plans like the Green New Deal, when you hear politicians like AOC spouting these things off, agriculture is a major employer in this country but it’s also a major consumer of energy, as you noted earlier. It’s an intensive process for labor and energy. And they are talking about things that would drive the cost of energy through the roof in some cases making it prohibitive for marginal players. How much does that concern you and how much do you feel the need to step up and say, “Hey, guys, you want me to lay off these thousands of employees because that’s what would have to happen?”

Unanue replied:

You know, communism works until you run out of other people’s money to spend. We’re not going to be able to do that. It’s interesting that AOC was one of the first people to step in line to boycott Goya; go against her own people, as supposedly a Puerto Rican woman, to go against people of her own Latin culture. She’s naïve. To some extent I can understand AOC; she’s young; she’s naïve; she doesn’t get it. But you’ve got someone like (Bernie) Sanders, who’s older than us, older than me, and he still doesn’t get it.

“We still have to chat with AOC; I love her,” Unanue continued. “She was actually our Employee of the Month; I don’t know if you know about this, but when she boycotted us, our sales actually increased 1,000%. So we gave her an honorary — we never were able to hand it to her but she got Employee of the Month for bringing attention to GOYA and our adobo. Actually our sales of adobo did very well after she said ‘Make your own Adobo.’”

Berry wondered, “Was it P.T. Barnum who said, ‘Say what you want just spell my name right. All publicity is good publicity.”

Unanue replied, “She’s our hero. She helped boost sales tremendously.”

Berry asked, “I don’t know, I’m sure you know your demographics better than anyone, but I would be interested to know how many samplers you achieved after that because I suspect a lot of people went to the grocery store and said for the very first time, ‘Can you tell me where I can find a can of Goya?’ and bought a cart full of ’em that had never bought your products and some of that residual stays?”

Unanue answered, “What happened was we reached so many new people at the same time we maintained our base…”

Can’t argue with that a bit. However, by mocking her by recognizing her as the Employee of the Month and characterizing her as young and naive, he comes off as charitable while still showing her to be a moron.

Looks like her fellow Dems are getting tired of her shit.

AOC passed over by Democrats for spot on key House committee

https://nypost.com/2020/12/18/...key-house-committee/

WASHINGTON — Democrats on Friday shot down Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez’s campaign for a prized seat on the House Energy and Commerce Committee — instead appointing fellow New York Rep. Kathleen Rice.

The New York congresswomen had been jockeying for the seat and lobbying colleagues behind the scenes, but Rice ultimately won in a vote of 46-13, Politico reported Friday.

The committee oversees everything from public health to climate issues, foreign commerce and consumer protection.

Democratic lawmakers on the Steering and Policy Committee were reportedly forced into an awkward vote Thursday when some members presented their views on who should win.

According to Politico, some Democrats cautioned against giving the plum role to AOC, 31, because she had encouraged several liberal challengers to take on her own colleagues.

“I’m taking into account who works against other members in primaries and who doesn’t,” Rep. Henry Cuellar (D-Texas) said on the call.

Other members on the Energy and Commerce Committee reportedly worried how Ocasio-Cortez’s progressive policies, including the Green New Deal, could cause problems in the new Congress, where Democrats will have a slimmer majority.

Rice, 55, a Long Island Democrat and former prosecutor, said she was honored to be selected.

“New Yorkers deserve a fighter to lower the cost of prescription drugs, address climate change and improve our drinking water,” Rice said in a statement to Patch.

“I look forward to working with my colleagues to help the incoming Biden-Harris Administration combat the COVID-19 pandemic and build back our economy.”

Rice’s appointment to the committee marks a huge turnaround in fortunes for the lawmaker, who was denied a seat on the powerful House Judiciary Committee after she spoke out against Nancy Pelosi’s speakership.

Ocasio-Cortez has recently echoed Rice’s calls, telling the Intercept she believes the 80-year-old needs to go but has no clear successor.
