The Reform and Reconstructionist Rabbinate will be the death of Judaism.
In this case, literally.
NYC we can't actually want a former cop as mayor when we know we desperately need to #DefundThePolice. Please rank @mayawiley #1!

How has that defunding of the police going in NYC?

In the biggest surge of anti-Semitic violence, NYC has seen in decades, this Rabbi is calling for defunding of the police, who have had to put out extra patrols to keep Jews from being beaten up in the streets.
Reform and Reconstructionists hate Conservative and Orthodox Jews because they are Leftists and hating practicing Jews is what Leftists do.
Defunding the police will harm mostly the Conservative and Orthodox Jewish communities because they are the most visibly Jewish.
This is why I have such a burning hatred for Leftist Jews, especially Leftist Rabbis, like all Leftists, everything they do hurts actual, practicing Jews.
Note she says “ private…citizen, not a rabbi” and then signs her name Rabbi. I’m a secular Jew and I despise these Judenrat candidates.
You made a mistake on her religion.
First and foremost, she is a leftist/progressive/statist. That is her real religion.
Devotion to God, Judaism, or even any kind of moral code or prayer probably runs second, or third in her belief system.
Make no mistake about this. Leftism/progressivism/socialism/communism IS a religion disguised as a political system. And, this particular religion MUST be paramount above all other belief systems.
What Jack said. One of the current Leftist pushes is to strip Christian churches of their 501(c)(3) non-profit statuses. Their reasoning is that saying Christians should vote their values is inherently political — even if there’s no endorsement of any politician, ballot measure, or position — and is thus engaging in political activism.
I have no doubt, if a conservative Christian preacher (priest, minister, pastor, whatever your denomination calls it) posted anything like that, even with the “saying this as a private citizen, not a pastor” disclaimer, the weaponized IRS would be all over it. Lois Lerner should have been an object lesson in what NOT to do, but the Biden Administration’s IRS playbook is pretty much “Lois Lerner dialed to 11 (and that only until we can get the knob re-wired to go to 15)”.
But because this “rabbi” is spouting the “right-thinking” Narrative [TM], she’ll get a pass.
If she really wanted to say it as a private citizen, she’d have a separate Twitter handle for herself, and this one would be her “official” handle for rabbinical postings. By posting it under her digital rabbinical letterhead it’s going to imply rabbinical endorsement regardless of the “saying this as a private citizen” disclaimer.
And she damn well knows it.
Any self-proclaimed “rabbi” who ignores the first commandment “Thou shalt have no other gods before me” by worshipping Marx doesn’t deserve any respect, no more than a self-proclaimed “veteran” who perjures his oath of office and insists our right to be armed should be taken away.
