Trump Commutes Roger Stone’s Prison Sentence: What You Need To Know


17 comments :

  1. Bravo Trump. Ha ha:
    “We made every decision in Stone’s case, as in all our cases, based solely on the facts and the law and in accordance with the rule of law,” Mueller wrote. “The women and men who conducted these investigations and prosecutions acted with the highest integrity. Claims to the contrary are false.”
    Torah thought on the parsha Mattos-Massey:

    “The Reubenites and the Gadites owned cattle in very great numbers. Noting that the lands of Jazer and Gilead were a region suitable for cattle, the Gadites and the Reubenites came to Moses, Eleazar the priest, and the chieftains of the community, and said, Ataroth, Dibon, Jazer, Nimrah, Heshbon, Elealeh, Sebam, Nebo, and Beon—the land that the Lord has conquered for the community of Israel is cattle country, and your servants have cattle. It would be a favor to us, they continued, if this land were given to your servants as a holding; do not move us across the Jordan. Moses replied to the Gadites and the Reubenites, Are your brothers to go to war while you stay here? Why will you turn the minds of the Israelites from crossing into the land that the Lord has given them? That is what your fathers did when I sent them from Kadesh-barnea to survey the land. After going up to the wadi Eshcol and surveying the land, they turned the minds of the Israelites from invading the land that the Lord had given them. Thereupon the Lord was incensed and He swore, None of the men from twenty years up who came out of Egypt shall see the land that I promised on oath to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, for they did not remain loyal to Me—none except Caleb son of Jephunneh the Kenizzite and Joshua son of Nun, for they remained loyal to the Lord. The Lord was incensed at Israel, and for forty years He made them wander in the wilderness, until the whole generation that had provoked the Lord’s displeasure was gone. And now you, a breed of sinful men, have replaced your fathers, to add still further to the Lord’s wrath against Israel. If you turn away from Him and He abandons them once more in the wilderness, you will bring calamity upon all this people.” (Numbers 32:1-15).
    Hertz Chumash p. 708:”7.turn away the heart. Their request, if granted would dishearten the other tribes, as it would reduce the fighting strength of Israe. 15.destroy all this people. The unworthy desires of these mioght infect the other tribes, and thus the whole nation would be shut out from entering Canaan and perish.”

    My theory. Hertz Chumash is so right! Moses is speaking to Jews in the USA today. Gad and Reuven tribes took over not only sheep but also women. “The amount of booty, other than the spoil that the troops had plundered, came to 675,000 sheep, 72,000 head of cattle, 61,000 asses, and a total of 32,000 human beings, namely, the women who had not had carnal relations.” (Numbers 31:32-35). Very good life in the East side of Jordan river like America. They did keep Torah. They didn’t intermarry with other tribes. They followed Moses their leader. They liked money and girls. Wow 675,000 sheep and 32.000 girls. What trade they could do with the nations. They believed Bilaam’s prophecy. See http://www.israelnationalnews.com/News/News.aspx/283232

    “How fair are your tents, O Jacob, Your dwellings, O Israel! Like palm-groves that stretch out, Like gardens beside a river, Like aloes planted by the Lord, Like cedars beside the water; Their boughs drip with moisture, Their roots have abundant water. Their king shall rise above Agag, Their kingdom shall be exalted. God who freed them from Egypt Is for them like the horns of the wild ox. They shall devour enemy nations, Crush their bones, And smash their arrows. They crouch, they lie down like a lion, Like the king of beasts; who dare rouse them? Blessed are they who bless you, Accursed they who curse you!” (Numbers 24:5-9)
    Moses is speaking to American Jews who don’t want to make aliya.

  2. Next step for Trump: “Pardon Michael Flynn
    Time for the President to end this highly politicized prosecution.”
    See https://www.wsj.com/articles/pardon-michael-flynn-11594422339?mod=opinion_lead_pos1
    “Judge Sullivan knows that once the court takes the case en banc, the panel opinion is immediately vacated under D.C. Circuit rules. That means the writ ordering him to dismiss vanishes, and the eventual en banc ruling would control. Mr. Flynn’s legal agony would continue for months and perhaps until a Biden Administration takes office. This is outrageous and continues the politicized nature of this sorry prosecution. The review of the Flynn case ordered by Attorney General Bill Barr found the FBI and Justice Department withheld exculpatory evidence, revised the bureau’s 302 interview forms, and did an end run around normal White House procedures to sandbag Mr. Flynn. All of this has tarnished two powerful executive branch institutions, and Judge Sullivan’s behavior threatens to do the same for the judicial branch.”

    In my Mo. No. 2020-352 June 29, 2020 the judges left the $25,000 sanctions and TIAA paying Susan 55% outstanding until the whole NYS Court of Appeals rules, sometime late August 2020. This is similar to the progressive Left Judge Sullivan appealing to the court to take up his refusal to exonerate Flynn.

  4. With Trump POTUS now is a good time for American Jews to make aliya. Rabbi Eliezer Melamed says that it is a modern sin of the spies not to make aliya when making aliya is so easy. See http://www.israelnationalnews.com/News/News.aspx/283399
    “The Result of the Sin of the Spies Today About a hundred and twenty years ago, close to fifty years after Rabbi Alkalai and Rabbi Kalisher had initiated their activities, at the time of the establishment of the Zionist movement, the Jewish people numbered approximately eleven million, while the Arabs who lived in all areas of the Biblical borders, including Lebanon, Syria and Iraq, numbered a little more than five million, with a little more than half a million Arabs living on both sides of the Jordan. At that point, the Jewish nation had the opportunity to return to the Land of Israel, in which to flourish and multiply. However, the majority of our nation was afraid to uproot themselves from the Diaspora, to immigrate to Israel, and to take their fate in their own hands, as the Torah commands. Indeed, the challenge was immense; immigration to Israel in those days involved many difficulties. However, the refusal to fulfill the mitzvah to immigrate to Israel when it was possible to do so, was in a sense, a modern-day sin of the Spies, and as we were warned in the Torah, the price for it is horrendous. We suffered the Holocaust, the rule of Communist oppression, and assimilation. And thus today, there are about fifteen million declared Jews in the world, and in Israel, approximately seven million. In contrast, the Arabs in the vicinity of Eretz Yisrael benefited from the fruits of the industrial revolution, the growth of food production, and the improvement of medicine, and grew from five million to more than eighty million. Still, it is not too late. It is still possible to unite around the national and divine mission, and change the situation. “Get ready! We’re going up to Zion to the Lord our God!” The Lord proclaims: Sing joyfully for the people of Jacob; shout for the leading nation. Raise your voices with praise and call out: “The Lord has saved his people, the remnant of Israel!” (Jeremiah, 31: 5-6)”

  8. Daas Torah “good for him and he knows this how?” Allow me to answer. I say Moses is speaking to American Jews who don’t want to make aliya. I cite Rabbi Eliezer Melamed. In Numbers 32:1-15 Moses reviews in detail the sin of the spies 40 years earlier. Moses says (Numbers 32:7-8): “Why will you turn the minds of the Israelites from crossing into the land that the Lord has given them? That is what your fathers did when I sent them from Kadesh-barnea to survey the land.”
    Is it a sin if American Jews don’t want to make aliya? The tribes of Reuven and Gad did not want to make aliya, to settle in Israel. Did they sin?
    במדבר ל"ב ז'
    וְלָמָּה תְנִיאוּן אֶת לֵב בְּנֵי יִשְׂרָאֵל מֵעֲבֹר אֶל הָאָרֶץ אֲשֶׁר נָתַן לָהֶם יְקֹוָק
    מלבי"ם
    ולמה תניאון. הלא במה שלא תעברו את הירדן תניאון את לב ב"י מעבור אל הארץ. שהם יחשבו שאתם נמנעתם מלכנס אל הארץ מפני פחד יושבי הארץ ויפחדו גם הם מעבור אל הארץ::

    במדבר ל"ב ח'
    כֹּה עָשׂוּ אֲבֹתֵיכֶם בְּשָׁלְחִי אֹתָם מִקָּדֵשׁ בַּרְנֵעַ לִרְאוֹת אֶת הָאָרֶץ:
    מלבי"ם
    כה עשו אבותיכם. וא"כ אתם חוטאים החטא הזה שחטאו המרגלים שהיה חטאם מה שהניאו את לב ב"י לבלתי בא אל הארץ, ואגב ספר כי המרגלים נשלחו רק לראות את הארץ. הטובה היא אם רעה לא לרגל אם יוכל לכבשה. כי הכבוש היה מוכן להיות ע"י ה' וכמו שבארתי בארך בפ' שלח, והם באו בחזרתם עד נחל אשכול ויראו אותה כי טובה היא [ובפרט למה שכתבתי שם שעד נחל אשכול לא היה דעתם להוציא דבה] והיה עיקר חטא המרגלים מה שהניאו את לב בנ"י:
    The sin of the wicked spies in parsha שלח was turning the minds of the Israelites from crossing into the land that the Lord has given them. Surely there is a command to settle in Israel. Surely there is a prohibition to turn the mind of Israelites through fear to making aliya. See http://www.israelnationalnews.com/News/News.aspx/283345
    “Dr. Sam Minskoff, a member of the Aliyah Team at Arutz Sheva, talks about the pressure that is building up in the Diaspora inducing Jews to immigrate to Israel, that is inevitably expanding and finally taking rightful control of the Land that G-d has given them. Once it is clearly observed, Minskoff states, that the False Evidence Appearing Real (FEAR) is discernible, Aliyah will increase further as it has, and not be tormented by the rest of the World—Thank G-d.”
    Did I answer the question, DT?

  9. It's tradition in the Mercaz harav world (having been accused by satmar etc of violating 3 oaths). I think Rav Teichtal ztl also pointed out this sin.

  10. and therefore they are the sole source?

  11. They blamed each other for the holocaust. After satmsr and friends blamed the Zionists, the religious Zionists countered with this argument.
    Presumably there wasn't much debate on the holocaust before it happened.

  13. “Trump Commutes Roger Stone’s Prison Sentence” of course, Roger Stone did nothing wrong. I did nothing wrong Aranoff v Aranoff. Allow me:

    TRACTATE
    KETHUBOTH
    CHAPTER 13
    Mishnah 1
    There were two judges of civil law in Jerusalem, Admon and Chanan ben Abishalom. Chanan states two decisions, Admon states seven. Whosoever went to a country beyond the seas, and his wife claims maintenance, Chanan says, She should swear at the end but let her not take an oath at the beginning. The sons of the High Priests argued against him and said, Let her swear both at the beginning and at the end. R. Dosa ben Harkinas decided in accordance with their view. R. Jochanan ben Zakkai said, Chanan said well that she should take an oath only at the end.

    We like R. Jochanan ben Zakka (the street close to me in Bnei Brak). A husband that leaves Israel, abandoning his wife in Israel, the wife should get maintenance immediately with no need of swearing in court.

    Mishnah 11
    All can be compelled to move to the Land of Israel but no one may be compelled to move out. All may be forced to go up to Jerusalem but none can be made to leave, whether they be men or women.

    If the NYS Court of Appeals accepts Mo. No. 2020-352 June 29, 2020 for review, the court will review:

  15. According to R. Jochanan ben Zakka a husband that leaves Israel, abandoning his wife in Israel, the wife gets maintenance immediately with no need of swearing in court. In Jewish law I have the upper hand since I moved to Jerusalem, Israel July 1991 despite Susan's objections. Judge Prus knows this.

  16. “Trump Commutes Roger Stone’s Prison Sentence”
    See https://www.wsj.com/articles/of-pardons-and-presidents-11594584012?mod=opinion_major_pos1
    “Mr. Stone is no martyr. He is by his own description a political performance artist, and he finally ran into prosecutors who weren’t amused. There are legitimate questions about the anti-Trump bias of the jury forewoman, but the full jury found Mr. Stone lied to investigators and tried to bully witnesses. He was probably trying to protect the lies he had previously told to make himself seem more influential than he was. The proper avenue for addressing trial bias is on appeal. The commutation spared Mr. Stone from having to report to prison on Tuesday, where the 67-year-old would have been vulnerable to Covid-19. But Mr. Trump didn’t issue a full pardon, which means Mr. Stone’s felony conviction stands and so does his appeal.”
    I’m addressing trial bias in Aranoff v Aranoff. The proper avenue is appeal. This is my letter today to the NYS Ct of Appeals:
    “2.Exhibit A: Exhibit A: Judge Prus Final Order November 18, 2016 states:
    The defendant's opposition lays out the long and tortured history of this case and the seemingly endless litigation she was subject to by Mr. Aranoff. The time to object or appeal the pension award or any other award to the plaintiff has long since passed.
    3.Judge Prus knew very well the long history of this case. If the NYS Court of Appeals accepts my case for review, they will review...
    4.Jewish law is clear on the rights of a husband moving to Israel over the objections of his wife. Allow me:
