Trump's election lies are not even a minority legal view - they are simply lies

 Someone claimed Trump's stolen election claims   have the status of a valid minority view

That is false! There is no evidence supporting the possibility,

It is thus a claim like saying any laws which cause suffering to an individual are not legitimate it is merely an assertion but not  a legitimate view

Please distinguish between assertions  and views!

Former President Donald Trump on Friday discounted his own daughter’s testimony that the 2020 presidential election results were not fraudulent.

“Ivanka Trump was not involved in looking at, or studying, Election results. She had long since checked out and was, in my opinion, only trying to be respectful to Bill Barr and his position as Attorney General (he sucked!),” Trump posted on Truth Social, the social media platform he helped found.

Ivanka Trump, one of his most trusted supporters and advisers, appeared in a previously unseen video clip saying that she didn't believe the 2020 presidential election was stolen.

Following a video clip of Attorney General William Barr testifying that he told Trump at the time that the claims the election had been stolen were "complete nonsense," "crazy stuff" and "bulls***," as his team had not found evidence of voter fraud, Ivanka Trump said she accepted what Barr said.

Pence called for help -- not Trump

The committee also showed new video from its interview with Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Mark Milley saying it Pence was the one who ordered National Guard troops to respond to the violence on January 6, but that he was told by the White House to say it was Trump.

"Vice President Pence -- there were two or three calls with Vice President Pence. He was very animated, and he issued very explicit, very direct, unambiguous orders. There was no question about that," Milley says in the video.

"He was very animated, very direct, very firm to Secretary Miller. 'Get the military down here, get the guard down here. Put down this situation, et cetera,'" he added, referring to Pence.

Milley also described his interactions with Trump chief of staff Mark Meadows that day, drawing a stark contrast between those conversations with Pence.

"He said: We have to kill the narrative that the vice president is making all the decisions. We need to establish the narrative, you know, that the President is still in charge and that things are steady or stable, or words to that effect," Milley says in the video, referring to what Meadows told him.

How to Seek Inspiration in the Torah

Therefore, when today’s rabbinic authorities apply the Torah’s teachings in innovative ways, we cannot try to live in the past, complaining that the leadership of previous generations did not see the need for such innovations. On the contrary: only by reading the Torah through the eyes of our “Joshua” – today’s Moses – can we be certain that the Torah will provide us with the inspiration to fulfill our Divine mission and live our lives to the fullest.1

'החתן המתחזה' הגיע להוכיח יהדות; זה מה שענה בית הדין

 https://www.kikar.co.il/420671.html

יותר מחצי שנה לאחר הפרסום על החתן המתחזה מלבנון, הופיע עלי חאוויליה בפני הרבנות בישראל וביקש: "הכירו ביהדותי" • חאליוואה המשיך להתעקש כי היה יהודי - ובבית הדין הציעו פשרה 

Seeking Inspiration- It can't be true if it doesn't inspire

 I recently had a long discussion with someone I know and respect regarding hashkofa issues

Over and over the issue was "well that approach doesn't inspire me."

In other words truth and facts are not so important because if it inspires it must be true!

In fact for many of the issues that I find are important today - the course of action is largely decided - both by the masses and gedolim - by whether the path is inspiring or will cause a loss of inspiration.

The Senate listened in astonished silence as Trump’s lawyers coldly and methodically hurled Kushner under the bus.

According to Davis Logsdon, a law professor at the University of Minnesota, the lawyers’ new argument could be persuasive “because it fits into a larger pattern of everything Jared Kushner doing or saying turning into crap.”

Meir said: It was not even one complete day [before they sinned], for while they were yet standing near Sinai, exclaiming ’We will do, and obey’, their hearts were already concentrated on idolatry, for itsays, But they beguiled Him with their mouth, and lied unto Him with their tongue (Ps.

"Let's take a look at where the public is on some of these policies regarding gun sales," Roberts said. "Do you support or oppose requiring background checks for all gun buyers? Eighty-nine percent of Americans say they support it. Eight percent oppose it," the Fox News journalist said, reading polling data from Quinnipiac University.
