why did our conservative news site go liberal?

Because there’s very little if any original reporting. And the services that resell news wires and media outlets are virtually all left-wing. So they lazily repost mainstream media fake news. The decision here is economic not ideological.

APY: 1) What conservative news stations are your referring to? 2) Which of those offer a syndicated subscription to other websites?

Calling the YWN liberal is a surely a joke. I guess since Trump decided that Fox News is not enough of a sycophant the so-called conservatives here (really they are Trump cultists) are all on OANN and Brietbart and now think that even generic right-wing stuff is liberal.

There’s no doubt that this site lazily reposts unedited syndicated/wire stories from the AP, Reuters, NY Times and other mainstream media left-wing fake news outlets.

“there is evidence of election fraud”

There is the following evidence of election fraud:

1) Two Trump voters in Pennsylvania got caught trying to cast a second vote in the name of a dead person.

2) A guy in California got caught committing absentee ballot fraud in California in an attempt to steal a local election. A few thousand fraudulent absentee ballot applications in a state Biden won by five million votes, and there were no illegal votes in this case, either, because the guy got caught. I have not been able to determine whether the perpetrator is a Republican or a Democrat as all local elections in California are nonpartisan.

3) The US Postal service failed to deliver 1/3 of the mail in ballots in Philadelphia and 1/5 of the mail in ballots in Detroit. Then Trump’s goons went to court to prevent these legal ballots from being counted if they arrived late. This cost Biden a lot of votes but he won anyway. The source here is the “liberal” Trump propaganda rag called the New York Post.

Giuliani admitted in open court that there was no fraud. So there is nothing for YWN to report on.

Charlie, perhaps you should actually read the lawsuits just recently filed by Sidney Powell in Georgia and Michigan. Might, *might* , make you sound smarter in your future posts. Not sure how any of trumps “goons” would go about overturning a “fair and free” election.

@torahvaluesoverparty
Sidney Powell’s filings are a joke.

They read terribly. The sentences appear to have been spliced together, erroneously divided with misplaced full stops or end with closing quotation marks that were never opened and are filled with debunked conspiracy theory hogwash.

Like the primary source for the complaint’s claims about Dominion’s supposed Venezuelan connection appears to be a Wall Street Journal article from 2006.

My question is how so many people on YWN are convinced there was election fraud without there being any concrete evidence proving so?

@godoalhatorah, The GOP was here before Trump and will be here after Trump, same as the Democats and Clinton or Obama

1. YWN purchases most of its goysha news from the Associated Press, which is opened by the major newspapers, which means it is liberal. The less partisan news sources, such as the Wall Street Journal, are probably more expensive, and perhaps unwilling, to let YWN reprint their news sources.

2. YWN has much “sponsored content”. On Covid19, much of the “sponsored content” is from people who wish to promote panic in order to enhance fund raising. Ask yourself, if someone who is schnorring told you not to worry about something, will that make you more or less likely to give money to him to take care of what he just told you isn’t worrisome.

Three Republican appointed appeals judges just shot down the lastest Trump appeal.

This has nothing to do with the media. This has to do with the fact that Trump has no case and he has incompetent lawyers.

Didn’t anyone notice that Trump has been spouting baseless conspiracy theories since before he was president? For example, Birthergate. It’s no different now. Don’t be a fool.

It’s also easy to prove that Trump lies multiple times almost every single times he speaks. Neutral facts checkers routine document numerous proven lies in a single speech.

Many politicians occasionally make misstatements but Trump obviously makes up things off the top of his head, or repeats some conspiracy theory that he read from some anonymous tweet. That’s just his personality.

Also due to his personality, it was widely (and correctly!) predicted that he would refuse to concede, because his narcissism keeps him from doing anything but bragging about his supposed victories. He claimed there was fraud before even looking at evidence, and he paid people to find it and yet they still haven’t found any.

So you’re claiming every single fact-checking website is part of the liberal conspiracy?

Do some research. Most fact-checkers are non-partisan and debunk the right and left alike.

Spend a few minutes looking at any fact-checker website. You’ll find dozens of proven lies by Trump in seconds.

It is completely ludicrous to deny that Trump is a pathological liar, far beyond any other contemporary American politician.

Think about frum Jews’ politics before Trump. Were we into far-right conspiracy theories, and the politicians who embraced them?

No, we mainly supported mainstream Republicans like Bush I and II who had more-or-less normal middos, acted in a “presidential” manner and lacked any obvious personality disorders.

““fact checkers” count that as a lie”

It was. Objectively. The best the US economy ever has been was when Lyndon Johnson was President. Oh, and he balanced the budget, too.

“He is an unapologetic conservative, and he pushed his conservative policy ”

No he isn’t. He is a bigoted nativist racist licentious promiscuous lying cheating business fraudster narcisist snowflake who is melting down because America decide it cared about morality.

And his policies aren’t conservative either. Conservatives used to want free trade, high levels of immigration, limited government regulation, and clean government. Trump has given us trade wars, immigration bans, government dictates on business conduct, and more scandals and corruption than any President since Harding. And unlike Harding, Trump is *personally* benefitting from the corruption.

It is a Chilul HaShem that anyone claiming to be religious can support this. It degrades Orthodox Judaism in the minds of the world when non-frum people and non-Jews see that we support such a rasha. Those who support him have turned their backs on the Torah.

And now you make it worse by endorsing Trump’s attempt to overturn a free and fair election. Orthodox Jews Oppose American Democracy. Have you no sense of gratitude for all the good that America has given Jews that you want to overturn its elections to keep such a rasha in charge? You are giving ammunition to the anti-Semites, and in this case the anti-Semtism would be justified.

And you know that everything I wrote is true. You just can’t admit you are wrong. It is okay. Tshuvah is available at any time.

A Pashute Yid,
“obama did not get one thank you letters to presidents from the gedolei hador are reserved for good presidents.”

That is not my understanding of the shita of the gedolim on writing thank you letters. It also does not sound like the Torah’s hashkafa.

The one who slammed the door on R Moshe’s hand?

@commonsaychel, That is exactly what I meant. I am not sure how it was misinterpreted.
I meant that it is not a torahdige hashkafa to say that ,” thank you letters to presidents from the gedolei hador are RESERVED FOR GOOD PRESIDENTS.”

@commonseychel,
You are saying that it is a torah hashkafa to not thank a president or person that helped you and deserve thanks because they are not “good” ?
And Trump is the only president to be “good”?
And thanks can only come in a public letter signed by gedolim ?

@commonseychel,

The letter has a sponsor. (In fact every letter that gets Gedolim’s signatures has a sponsor.) The sponsor is the driving force behind the actual letter and is responsible for getting the signatures.
Rabbi Moshe Margareten shlit”a was the driving force behind the letter.
He loves doing good things for klal yisrael and he felt that the letter was a good thing and succeeded. He deserves tremendous credit for it.

But I am not sure that this defines a shita of the Gedolim.

If Rabbi Margareten hadn’t walked in to them, none of them would have run after him.
