In addition to the Pennsylvania Legislature, as mentioned earlier, the Michigan Legislature is also holding a rare emergency session to investigate election irregularities. All this is the beginning of the various state legislatures leading up to taking action to directly appoint electors supporting Trump.
November 9, 2020 5:00 pm at 5:00 pm in reply to: Could someone explain it to a non American please…? #1918292ujmParticipantjackk, you forgot about the election in 2000. It took 37 days to resolve.
Have some patience.
November 9, 2020 12:53 pm at 12:53 pm in reply to: State Legislatures Should Give Trump Reelection Win #1918199ujmParticipantENS:
1. This constitutional procedure is not illegal. It is a process outlined directly in the Constitution of the United States.
2. The joint session of Congress counting the electoral college on January 6 is presided over, as directed in the Constitution, by the President of the US Senate. The President of the US Senate is a gentleman by the name of Michael Pence. The presiding officer V.P. Pence has the authority to decide which certificates of electoral college received is recognized and announced by him in the joint session. If he doesn’t present a certificate there’s nothing to challenge.
3. The Presidential Succession Act only is relevant if no one received a majority of the electoral college. If Vice President Pence announces, per the electoral college certificates received from the state legislatures, that President Trump received a majority of the electoral college, that is the end of the matter. President Trump is reelected.
Furthermore, even IF the Presidential Succession Act had come into play, there’s a legal dispute whether the Speaker can become Acting President, since the Constitution specifies only an “Officer” of the government can assume the powers of the presidency. In legal terms an Officer is only a member of the Executive Branch. Pelosi is only a member of the legislative branch, thus arguably unqualified. So how is this legal ambiguity resolved, you ask? The Justice Department can issue a legal opinion stating the three Speaker isn’t qualified. It is binding. And the head of the Department of Justice is a gentleman by the name of William Barr.
Amil: You’re simply not following this discussion. It is going over your head. I refer you to Article 2, Section 1, Clause 2 of the United States Constitution. This has nothing to do with districts. Any state legislature can decide how to assign their state electoral college. There’s nothing to litigate. They can change the process at any time, to anything they decide.

November 9, 2020 7:25 am at 7:25 am in reply to: State Legislatures Should Give Trump Reelection Win #1918037ujmParticipantAmil: You completely missed the point. Any state legislature has the constitutional authority to directly award their state electoral votes, even now after the election, to any candidate of their choosing.
November 8, 2020 10:16 pm at 10:16 pm in reply to: State Legislatures Should Give Trump Reelection Win #1917998ujmParticipantThe state legislatures directly awarding the state’s electoral votes to Trump is the Democrats nightmare scenario because they know it is fully in line with the constitution and the Republicans control the levers of power to effect this maneuver, with the Democrats being helpless to stop it.
Which explains the leftist media’s burying discussion of this constitutional process, so that they can pretend when it happens that it was such a big shock as they hysterically will throw a tantrum with their Democrat politicians providing the convulsed quotes fit to print.
November 8, 2020 7:48 pm at 7:48 pm in reply to: State Legislatures Should Give Trump Reelection Win #1917936ujmParticipantjackk, let’s talk on December 8th.
November 8, 2020 7:29 pm at 7:29 pm in reply to: State Legislatures Should Give Trump Reelection Win #1917915ujmParticipantThe leader of the State Senate in Pennsylvania and the Speaker of the State Assembly have held a news conference announcing their intention to “audit” the vote-counting process.
The process has begun. Buckle your seatbelts, friends.
November 8, 2020 5:05 pm at 5:05 pm in reply to: State Legislatures Should Give Trump Reelection Win #1917856ujmParticipantHow will the Democrats react once the constitutional process is completed and the legislatures give Trump the electoral college votes he needs for reelection?
November 8, 2020 3:14 pm at 3:14 pm in reply to: State Legislatures Should Give Trump Reelection Win #1917824ujmParticipantAmil: The President isn’t a doctor. Meanwhile, the United States is doing as well or better in the fight against covid as other countries in Europe and the western world.
November 8, 2020 11:32 am at 11:32 am in reply to: State Legislatures Should Give Trump Reelection Win #1917790ujmParticipantcharliehall: If the state legislatures now directly appoint the presidential electors, it has no bearing or legal effect on the local and state down ballot elections.
The beauty of this upcoming plan for the state legislatures that is now being formulated when it comes into fruition as likely, IY”H, before December 8, is that the Republican legislators in Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, Michigan, Arizona and Georgia are from red local districts that voted for Trump and whose voters will appreciate and reward their representative for having reelected President Trump, and rectified the fraud perpetuated against him.
ujmParticipantThere’s a trend:
Bill Clinton pressured Israel into Oslo and otherwise was heavy handed against Israeli settlement policies.
George W. Bush laid off Israel on settlements and otherwise was supportive of Israel.
Barack Obama condemned Israel at the UN and otherwise opposed Israeli policies.
Donald Trump was the most supportive of Israeli policy in American history, recognized Jerusalem, the Golan, moved the embassy and numerous other favors for Israel.
Is Biden coming from the Bush/Trump school of thought or from the Clinton/Obama school of thought?
You decide.
November 8, 2020 9:26 am at 9:26 am in reply to: Could someone explain it to a non American please…? #1917727ujmParticipant1 & 2. The media is leftist. Their election polls, exit polls and reporting of vote tallying is designed to make the Democrat Party numbers look better than reality.
3. They are not. But they pretend to be. And the left pretends with them. But it is of zero legal effect or meaning.
ujmParticipantBill Clinton refused for 36 days to allow George Bush to begin transition of power in 2000, until Al Gore completed all legal proceedings against his loss. Biden should expect no better. Let him wait to the completion of all legal proceedings.
November 8, 2020 1:21 am at 1:21 am in reply to: State Legislatures Should Give Trump Reelection Win #1917644ujmParticipantThe focus of the fraud was in the swing states where it mattered.
The Democrats have a long sorid history of voting fraud. They famously stole the 1960 election, with LBJ manipulating ballots. They tried to steal 2000, with Broward County in Florida miraculously turning to new ballots with every recount, against all statistical probabilities. Chicago and the Daley political machine was always famous for bringing out the dead to vote.
No wonder Democrats fight against purging voter rolls of the dead and those that moved. And fight against requiring photo ID to vote. (You can’t even get into a government building or on a plane or purchase alcohol without photo ID.)
And mail-in ballots make fraudulent voting so much easier. Especially when you automatically send out live ballots to all registered voters, dead or alive, without request.
ujmParticipantThe Orthodox Jewish community voted for Trump in even greater percentages than the above numbers indicate. Since there are non-Orthodox and non-Jews living in the same areas as the Orthodox Jews, when you see that an Orthodox neighborhood election district voted, say, 85% for Trump, the other 15% is mostly non-Orthodox/non-Jews voting. So well over 90% of the Orthodox voted for Trump.
November 7, 2020 10:43 pm at 10:43 pm in reply to: State Legislatures Should Give Trump Reelection Win #1917590ujmParticipantAmil: The poll watchers were kept 20+ feet away from the counting to prevent them from being able to see and challenge invalid ballots with late postmarks, mismatched signatures, etc.
Republicans never agreed to that distance, which was too far away to “observe” the count, as the law specifies.
November 7, 2020 9:33 pm at 9:33 pm in reply to: State Legislatures Should Give Trump Reelection Win #1917581ujmParticipantjackk: There are exactly zero states that voted for Trump and have a fully (both houses) Democrat-controlled state legislature. As such, there’s absolutely nothing Democrats can do to stop the fully legal and constitutional plan I explained in the OP.
And, yes, this is Plan B of Team Trump if the fraud is left otherwise unresolved. The state legislatures of Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, Michigan, Arizona and Georgia are as of now all still considering this option.
November 3, 2020 12:50 pm at 12:50 pm in reply to: A Vote for Biden is a Vote Against Israel #1916418ujmParticipantThe Jerusalem Post has a story today that the Palestinian Authority and Abbas are in touch with the Biden campaign.
ujmParticipantThe frum vote straight line Republican. The exception to that rule is if the local candidate has a relationship and works with the frum community. In such a case they’ll vote for him even if he’s a Democrat.
November 2, 2020 9:36 pm at 9:36 pm in reply to: New Conservative Supreme Court Supermajority #1916204ujmParticipantThere’s a solid conservative majority even without Roberts.
November 1, 2020 9:32 pm at 9:32 pm in reply to: Halachic Ramifications of Killing Whilst in the Military #1915851ujmParticipantAAQ: In the first volume of Michtav Me’Eliyahu Rav Dessler says the concept is that “emes” is not “truth,” but whatever furthers the will of Hashem. Thus, in a situation where it is proper to say an untruth, one isstill saying the “emes” (but not, of course, the “truth”). [Torah I blatantly lifted from elsewhere.]
Can an Austro-Hungarian Jewish soldier c’v engage in an action that will possibly, likely or certainly result in the killing of a Russian Jewish soldier? Or of a Russian Jewish civilian.
ujmParticipantWM: Have you ever c’v had to say Kaddish for someone halachicly required of you? If not, are you even allowed to say Kaddish for someone not halachicly required of you?
If you c’v had to say Kaddish for someone halachicly required, would you be asking the same question you ask in your OP? Why would it be less applicable?
November 1, 2020 6:51 pm at 6:51 pm in reply to: Halachic Ramifications of Killing Whilst in the Military #1915769ujmParticipantAAQ: Murder is a whole ‘nother level than lying (is that even against halacha?) or even stealing (assuming it is stealing, which is unlikely.) Violating Shabbos when working for a police department in a non-pekuach nefesh situation is indeed forbidden.
But whatever you think of any of the above, comparing it to murder is out of line.
November 1, 2020 1:19 pm at 1:19 pm in reply to: Halachic Ramifications of Killing Whilst in the Military #1915665ujmParticipantAnd what does he psaken?
ujmParticipantWith us being almost on the eve of Election Day, as strongly as I pray and hope that Trump wins, my intelligence tells me that will not be the case, most unfortunately. I also think that the Republicans will lose the Senate. This second prediction, if correctly combined with the first, will result in a completely disaster for the United States and its citizens over the next (at least) four years, much moreso than if the Republicans lose the presidency but retain the Senate. That said, while losing the Senate is likely I believe, it is less certain than losing the presidency.
I say all this not from desire, as I very much hope I’m wrong on both accounts, but out of analysis.
October 30, 2020 2:05 pm at 2:05 pm in reply to: New Conservative Supreme Court Supermajority #1915309ujmParticipantThe next goal of the left abortion supporters is the legalization of doctor assisted suicide. As GHD above describes his support of abortion, it being illegal for doctors to assist in suicide (no less than doctors assisting abortion) is a “violation of personal liberty”.
ujmParticipantN95 is supposed to be 95% effective (hence its name), not just 88%.
October 28, 2020 3:56 pm at 3:56 pm in reply to: New Conservative Supreme Court Supermajority #1914499ujmParticipantWhen general society has immoral laws, it certainly affects the Yidden in their midst. Even the Shomer Torah uMitzvos Jews. All the more so the Jews who utilize the immoral laws.
Even before Roe v Wade mother’s whose lives were endangered were permitted to abort to save their lives. Reversing Roe v. Wade would not change that.
ujmParticipantAAQ: Better to give up a percent of economic growth (especially as even with the lower economics we’re still the richest nation without becoming impoverished) if the upside of doing so is having more moral laws and policies (i.e. legal proscription and/or disapproval of toeiva, abortion, improper gender roles, etc.)
ujmParticipantAbsolutely “A”. Morality is more important than better economics. Even assuming the economic program was worse than his opponent, supporting more moral national policies and laws is far more vital.
ujmParticipantGoldstein caused Jews to be murdered in revenge for his attack.
If BLM has a first amendment right to mass protest, Jews have a first amendment right to mass religious prayers and mass religious schooling.
Tischler is an idiot. But from a legal perspective he has a first amendment right to publicly protest Kornbluh by jeering him as a moser and to protest him outside his home.

Those people have a nil intermarriage rate, a close to nil assimilation rate and a very high staying very frum rate.

February 25, 2009 6:25 am at 6:25 am in reply to: Talking With Members of The Opposite Gender #662998ujmParticipantames, did I ever identify my gender? I think it is mostly irrelevant. Part of the problem is when people unnecesarily think it important to advertise their gender here. I think you even made clear you’re married. How is that relevant?
Obviously here it isn’t as bad as in real life. But if you read some of the kibbutzing threads and see what is going on between the genders, it raises many red flags. Talking “issues” is one thing. I see you and others deeply involved in chatting on non-issue familial terms chatting. This is wrong.
ujmParticipantYou are supposed to get drunk to the point of not knowing the difference between cursed is haman and blessed is mordechai (according to many poskim, including my own) Therefore, it takes quite a bit of drunkedness to reach this halachic state.
Please don’t interfere with my religious obligations. Even U.S. law allows MINORS to drink alchol when it is for religious obligations.
February 25, 2009 4:20 am at 4:20 am in reply to: Talking With Members of The Opposite Gender #662997ujmParticipantSJSinNYC, I am talking about Chareidishe Yidden. You are MO (and by some MO, there is even mixed swimming.) So you are no raya.
By Bnei Torah, talking with the other gender is minimized to the bare possible minimum. And that’s the way it should be.
