David Greenfield and Chaim Deutsch Vote For Gay Mesirah Bill

Two Months ago in the City Council passed 2 bills send out spies to see if people are following the city's non "discrimination" policies.  Remember that the Williamsburg store case is still considered by the city to be gender discrimination. Bill De Blasio signed both of these bills in to law last month.  One bill Intro. 690 would establish an employment "discrimination" testing program in an attempt to proactively attempt to root out what they consider employment discrimination.  For example if a Kosher Pizza store refused to hire a homosexual spy sent by the city to trap him who was flaunting his same sex "marriage" in the face of everyone else, the store owner would be sued. The other bill Intro. 689 would establish a similar testing program to root out housing "discrimination".  For example if a landlord refused to rent a apartment in a building filled with Orthodox Jews, to a gay "couple" then he would be sued.  Unfortunately the Housing discrimination bill's main sponsor and pusher also represent the Jewish community Brad Lander (Borough Park, Kensington).  Even worse both David Greenfield and Chaim Deutsch Who claim to be Orthodox voted for both of these bills. The Commissioner of Human Rights who will decide how to do these mesirah tests, and how many is a Park Slope Lesbo who thinks she is "married" to another woman.


As city council man Brad Lander put it

One technique we will start using again is “matched-pair testing,” where two otherwise similar individuals – one black and one white, one straight and one gay, one abled and one disabled, one with and one without a housing voucher – both apply for an available apartment or job. The idea is to hold landlords and employers who systematically discriminate against New Yorkers accountable for their actions, with real investigations and tough sanctions. That’s part of how we’ll make change.

The mayor is requesting a 25% budget increase for the Human Rights Commission in fiscal year 2016, to $8.8 million from its current budget of $7 million. Those funds would help pay for a 51% staff increase to 100 employees from the agency's current staff of 66.

 In her second week on the job, Carmelyn P. Malalis, the new commissioner appointed by Mayor Bill de Blasio, was vowing to vigorously enforce the law and to revitalize the chronically underfinanced agency, which primarily serves residents who cannot afford to hire their own lawyers.

“I get that folks want to see results,” Ms. Malalis, a 40-year-old lawyer who specializes in workplace discrimination cases, said in an interview. “I know that we’re going to do some great work here.”

But the new commissioner, who lives in Park Slope, Brooklyn, also has a personal stake in the fight.

Ms. Malalis, the daughter of Filipino immigrants, is "married" to a woman from Ethiopia and has two biracial daughters.

"Orthodox" David Greenfield And Chaim Deutsch Vote For Abortion On Demand Resolution

On January 22 the City Council voted in favor of passing a resolution in favor of abortion on demand. Both "Orthodox" Jews (David Greenfield and Chaim Deutsch) in the City Council voted for this resolution, they didn't even have the decency to abstain from voting for it.  Immediately after passing this resolution they voted in favor of a resolution commemorating the 70th anniversary of the liberation of Auschwitz, leading David Greenfield making his infamous statement regarding gays, Israel, and Auschwitz.

In 2009 41% of all pregnancies in New York City ended in abortion! The African American Abortion rate was 59.8%!

The vote Greenfield and Deutsch made for abortion on demand

Text of the resolution 

Resolution calling upon the United States Congress to pass legislation to protect a woman's health, her right to determine whether and when to bear a child, and her ability to exercise that right by limiting government interference with the provision of abortion services and ensuring legal, safe abortion care is available to any woman who needs it.
By Council Members Cumbo, Crowley, Johnson, Kallos, Garodnick, Chin, Lander, Levine and Mendez

• Whereas, In 1973, the United States Supreme Court legalized abortion throughout the country with the Roe v. Wade decision; and
• Whereas, Central to the decision is the premise that the right to make childbearing choices is fundamental to women's lives and their ability to participate fully and equally in society; and
• Whereas, Since 1973, many states have passed measures with the intentions of whittling away at this right; and
• Whereas, According to the Guttmacher Institute, in just the last four years, states have enacted 231 abortion restrictions; and
• Whereas, Many of these restrictions create numerous delays and hardships for women such as denial of access to early abortion procedures, increased risks to health and increased expenses as well as burdensome logistical planning; and
• Whereas, Often times these burdens fall more heavily on low-income women, women of color, young women and women living in rural areas; and
• Whereas, According to July 2014 testimony provided by Nancy Northup, the CEO of the Center for Reproductive Rights, "… the only thing holding back the further spread of these very real threats to women's health and lives are court orders blocking these laws from taking effect;" and
• Whereas, In order to address many of these concerns the Women's Health Protection Act (WHPA) was introduced, and later died, in the last Congressional session; and
• Whereas, The WHPA would protect a woman's right to safe and legal abortion by limiting restrictions on the provision of abortion services ; and
• Whereas, The WHPA's findings state that "Congress has the authority to protect women's ability to access abortion services pursuant to its powers under the Commerce Clause and its powers under section 5 of the Fourteenth Amendment to the Constitution to enforce the provisions of section 1 of the Fourteenth Amendment"; and
• Whereas, It is essential that this legislation be re-introduced and passed in this current session of Congress because 42 years after the Roe v. Wade decision there is a renewed threat to women's access to safe and affordable abortions; and
• Whereas, Reproductive health care is an important component of women's overall health, and reproductive freedom is equally important to women's safety and well-being; and
• Whereas, Despite Roe v. Wade being the law of the land, many states have drastically restricted women's ability to access necessary and timely reproductive health care and limited doctors' ability to provide such care; now, therefore, be it
• Resolved, That the Council of the City of New York calls upon the United States Congress to pass legislation to protect a woman's health, her right to determine whether and when to bear a child, and her ability to exercise that right by limiting government interference with the provision of abortion services and ensuring legal, safe abortion care is available to any woman who needs it.

David Greenfield Spits In Rabbi's Faces Again

David Greenfield's response to Rabbi's letter supporting Erick Salgado

David Greenfield had the chutzpah to make a joke out of the rabbis on Twitter, right after a letter was read on their behalf, to endorse Erick Salgado.  

This is not the first time Greenfield slapped the rabbis in their faces.  During a close election between Lew Fidler and David Storobin, Greenfield arranged and put together a group of men and children, including City Council candidate, Chaim Deutsch, to ignore Daas Torah.

 

I was told by a reliable source, Duetsch and Greenfield even went one step further by bullying some rabbis with threats of losing their 501c3 and threatening them with their jobs.

Now that we know that David Greenfield is truly Dov Gordon, that source seems to be corroborated.

k But sources say that behind at least some of Gordon’s “Backroom Deals” columns is Greenfield himself, working in tandem with Yeshiva World publisher Yehuda Eckstein, with the councilman a primary source for “inside” political information.
“I’m not insinuating that David is the only person that uses the Dov Gordon pen name, but as it pertains to politics, he is far and away the only person writing about inside baseball,” Stefanie Fedak, Greenfield’s former chief of staff, said in a recent interview with City & State.

Dov Gordon (David Greenfield) wrote a false article claiming that rabbis never signed anything to oppose Lew Fidler.

Dov Gordon's (David Greenfield's) Yeshiva World New Article

On the heels of David Storobin’s latest negative attack on Councilman Lew Fidler it appears that several rabbonim are sending a message: enough. YWN has confirmed that at least four rabbonim who David Storobin has publicly claimed as endorsing him have said that they HAVE NOT endorsed him. The rabbonim, well respected in their communities, each wrote personal letters stating very clearly that they are not endorsing Mr. Storobin. The statements are a serious break in Storobin’s claim to have lined up support from rabbonim – the central claim of his campaign.

“I am not convinced that one candidates observance or hashkofas is better than the the others,” wrote Rabbi Mechel Rosenbaum. “I never authorized my name to be utilized in a political campaign or to urge a vote for David Storobin,” continued Rabbi Rosenbaum’s letter.

Rabbi Avrahom Moshe Binsky was equally forceful stating, “In no way do I endorse any candidate or any party in this political election.” Rabbi Natftoli Rottenberg echoed the same concerns, “I have never endorsed or authorized my name to be utilized in a political campaign nor have I urged anyone to vote for any particular candidate in this upcoming state senate race.” Also signing a letter proclaiming that he was not endorsing Storobin was Rabbi Chaim Krausz.

“Our community should participate in the upcoming elections and vote based on who will represent us best and produce the most accomplishments for our community’s needs,” concluded Rabbi Rosenbaum.

It is unclear if the Storobin campaign will take responsibility for this latest embarrassment or pass the blame on the organization that is believed to be responsible for originating the letter – Jews for Morality. According to several sources, Joseph Hayon and Joseph Friedman, both of Jews for Morality, actively solicited signatures for the letter. However, it appears that in the case of these four rabbonim they were not told by Mr. Hayon or Mr. Friedman that the letter was an endorsement of Storobin or that it was being organized by Jews for Morality.

Jews for Morality was founded by Rabbi Yehuda Levin (it was really founded by Rav Avigdor Miller). Levin is well known in the Jewish community for his strong views on all things related to Toeiva. Levin quite famously endorsed Republican Carl Paladino in his race for Governor of New York last year. Levin later withdrew his endorsement in front of Saint Patrick’s Cathedral after Paladino refused to endorse all of Levin’s anti-toeiva platform. Ironically, Democrat Andrew Cuomo went on to win the election and immediately passed same-gender marriage into law. Rabbi Levin is also well-known for his endorsement of renowned anti-Semite Pat Buchanan for President. Less know is that Levin has run for Congress, Mayor and New York City Council twice. He lost each and every time.

(Dov Gordon ?David Greenfield?– YWN)

However, Matzav then outed Gordon (Greenfield) as a liar. 

Unfortunately, there has been significant fallout from irresponsible claims regarding rabbonim “withdrawing” endorsements and the like with regard to yesterday’s race in New York between Democrat Lew Fidler and Republican David Storobin.

As first reported on Matzav.com, both candidates have declared victory, though the race is still too close to call. An unofficial tally from the New York City Board of Elections has 10,756 for Storobin and 10,636 for Fidler, with at least 750 paper ballots yet to be counted. The outcome won’t be known for some time.

“Regardless of the result, however,” an askan told Matzav.com this morning, “it is important for Yidden to have a clear understanding of the views of the gedolim, especially because there was an underhanded attempt by some to misrepresent their views.”

Those who were said to have “withdrawn” endorsement, in the cases known, had actually never issued endorsements, said the askan. What was stated by those individual rabbonim was that they were not sure that one candidate’s hashkafos were preferable over the other, and, in addition, they never authorized their names to be utilized in political ads or literature.

“Those rabbonim did not withdraw anything,” related the askan.

More importantly, gedolei Torah made clear yesterday their stance on the issue of Yidden voting for a politician who supports marriage redefinition.

Rav Yisroel Neuman, rosh yeshiva of Beth Medrash Govoha in Lakewood, NJ, himself recorded an audio message that was sent to frum Jews throughout the New York and New Jersey area making it clear that rumors that he had retracted his statement in this regard were completely false. Rav Neuman made clear that it is a chillul Hashem to vote for or assist a candidate who does not stand for moral values, such as supporting marriage redefinition.

Rav Shmuel Kamenetsky, rosh yeshiva of Yeshiva of Philadelphia, also made clear his feelings on the matter, stating that one should vote for the candidate who stands for values consistent with the Torah. He added that he hopes that candidate would emerge victorious. Rav Kamenetsky’s comments can be heard by calling 712-432-8533 and then pressing 1.

For those unable to call the number, after the last two paragraphs of the recent p’sak was read, Rav Kamenetsky said, “I signed it, and I still stick to it, and I hope he’ll win.”

The rosh yeshiva was then asked, “And the rosh yeshiva was encouraging people to act on that p’sak not to vote for Fidler, and if indeed Mr. Storobin is endorsing these values that (i.e., then) people should support him…?”

Rav Kamenetsky responded, “Correct.”

In addition, Rav Avrohom Binsky of Kehillas Moreshes Yaakov, who was depicted by some as having retracted his signature against supporters of marriage redefinition, issued a statement making it clear that he had never done so.

Rabbi Binsky letter

And as reported on Matzav.com yesterday, Rav Chaim Krauss and Rav N. H. Rottenberg  emphasized that although they did not endorse a particular candidate, they did not retract their view regarding voting for a candidate who has pledged support for legislation regarding toeivah.
