@DouthatNYT Here is post from years ago that may be informative: https://t.co/ULvvRaXD08

@amitsinghbagga Maybe you are right, but comparing a 2021 ED to the current one is comparing apples to oranges.
The left is 80-05 circa 2021; the right is the current 80-05.
They have zero overlap, and the current one is much larger.
Didn't check the others, but ED drastically changed.

@GwynneFitz Context: this is an area that Jumaane Williams won in June 22 primary. It's as progressive as it gets. I'm sure they attack @NYCMayor for not doing enough for immigrants, but when it touches them, they are up in arms. Selfish phonies!

Trumpism? Why did @SenSchumer - who is a bigger Trump *foe - win the Williamsburg Hasidic EDs with close to 60% were Zeldin got almost % of the votes? See snapshot of the results of the Heyward polling location EDs, which are the most Hasidic.

...And downstate at least, it looks like that's happening less. Major issue during measles was people not listening to the leaders re: vax.
Helps show why Aaron Teitelbaum is concerned about Satmar voters embracing 'Trumpism'

And even in his own base in upstate he hardly pulled off a majority, and he tries to find excuses.

[OrthodoxPundit @OPundit]

The issue isn't not following the Rabbis, but not following a certain upstate Rabbi who is upset that his true followship was now revealed like never before. And @elizashapiro probably is well aware of it, but plays along to continue her attacks on the community CC: @emmagf

@politicony @deannag18 For a reporter, covering NYC, it's worthwhile that you should know that NYC IS the largest city in the country. Saying that "NY becomes largest city to grant..." is odd. Because whenever NY does anything, they are the largest city in the country to do it.

@avitalrachel @MollyBoigon If only u would make any effort to check numbers. Fact of the matter is that @assemblymanjoe had more votes in the Hasidic districts (when including absentees) than any candidate in years, and probably EVER. I can share with you the proof, if you are interested in the real story

[OrthodoxPundit @OPundit]

@TipMahoney If he was ill, why didn't they alert authorities that he was missing for hours? They trusted him to drive around by himself; he owned or they entrusted him with a car, but suddenly he's ill. And he apparently knew whom to target. Hmmm...

.@NYCMayor on our synagogue/donor/forgery story: “I was not aware of the issue to begin w/ let alone the allegations of who did which flier until I read the articles in the papers & if someone did forge that that’s thoroughly disgusting and unacceptable." https://t.co/Ka3xId0j3e

@satmar112061 @SallyGold @SallyGold @joeanuta u were clearly sold a bill of goods. If there is any doubt if this is forged, here you have a designer who can do very quickly. Now, you can run another story with the new ads, or if you have any decency correct it and make clear who did what

[OrthodoxPundit @OPundit]

@satmar112061 @SallyGold I think after that clear forgery by an Aroni-associated account you have all the reasons in the world to update the story to show how it's an open farse

[OrthodoxPundit @OPundit]

@SallyGold I guess Room 9 doesn't adhere to @spj_tweets code https://t.co/QsDrDGIPfx – Identify sources clearly. The public is entitled to as much information as possible to judge the reliability and motivations of sources.

[OrthodoxPundit @OPundit]

@SallyGold I mean: no ones goes on record that they received the email or saw the poster. If I make an anonymous accusation, will you print it and then include a counter-accusation? This doesn't meet any decent journalistic standards

[OrthodoxPundit @OPundit]

@SallyGold @BilldeBlasio @joeanuta But no one can go on record. How often are you accepting such accusations, esepcially when a judge wrote that he & staff faced many false accusations & doctored documents from the same group and. Why isn't this included for the reader to weigh the credibility of the accusations?

[OrthodoxPundit @OPundit]

@SallyGold @BilldeBlasio @joeanuta This story demonstrates the blatant bias against Hasidim, and that when it deals with black hats all journalistic standards fly out the window. Here is an accusation based on some photos sent to a news organization. No one went on the record to state that they received that email
