A VINNEWS Op-ED

Jewish law teaches that, in general, if someone threatens your life unless you violate one of the commandments – it is better to violate the commandment than to give up your life.
There are three famous exceptions: killing others, untoward impropriety, and idol-worship. Now let’s take a look at all three as they pertain to our governor.
- On March 25th, 2020, Governor Cuomo issued a directive that caused some 15,000 deaths. It said, “No resident shall be denied re-admission or admission to the NH solely based on a confirmed or suspected diagnosis of COVID-19. NHs are prohibited from requiring a hospitalized resident who is determined medically stable to be tested for COVID-19 prior to admission or readmission.”
- Thus far, as of today, two aides have come forward with allegations of untoward harassment on the part of the governor. They were reported to others at the time that they took place. The aides had nothing to gain and everything to lose at the time. There may be more.
- On April 13th, 2020, when there was temporary lull in new COVID cases, Cuomo took credit denying any role to G-d. “The number is down because we brought the number down. G-d did not do that. Faith did not do that.” https://www.c-span.org/video/?c4868256/user-clip-mario-cuomo
These three issues are not inconsequential.
There is a concept in the Torah not to be afraid to speak up in the face of horrific immorality – it is called lo saguru mipnei ish. According to many commentators this Mitzvah does not just apply to judges but to all leaders.
The Governor should resign.
Seriously!
Where was VIN in April? I Remember op eds written on this site excoriating those of us that publicly questioned herr Cuomo.
He started up with Yidden and his downfall didn’t take long in coming! De Blasio is next!
Cuomo needs to GO TO JAIL
Why should he have to go???
He wrote such an amazing book on leadership during the pandemic, and he won an Emmy for his news conference!!!!!
He even missed about 15 conference calls with the Governor’s and the vice president on how to deal with the pandemic at that time, because he was busy writing his book and giving news conference’s.
Oh I forgot he killed 15,000.00 people and then lied about it????
He killed the NY economy for good!!!!!
But he is still not as bad as the great Donald Trump who got the vaccine in record time!!!
Donald Trump has to be impeached for a 3rd time for Cuomo great job that he did.
Oh how right was the old great Bod Grand!!!!
On a serious.
With out Hashem, Donald Trump will not have succeeded in getting the vaccine done so quickly, Trump was HASHEMS messenger!!!
There is no recall vote in ny. Only way to get rid of him is through impeachment. It could happen. He isn’t well liked
So much concern about an anti semitic governor. When you live in Eretz HaKodesh, you worry a lot less about Cuomo’s and Murphy’s. So concerned about non Jews, takes away from your concern about Jews, another side effect of the galus pandemic. Galus infects the mind and soul of a Jew. Its affects are so deep the affected are unaware until they step away and land in Eretz HaKodesh. When they learn Gemara and halacha, their eyes open in Eretz Yisrael and they can see how much influence the galus has had on them. You can’t know hashkafa unless you know halacha, and you can’t know halacha without Gemara. The self imposed galus must end.
Coumo is the liberal version of Trump.
what the heck is NH?
Cuomo stood up to and knocked down Herr Trumpf. 500,000 DEATHS under Trumpf but not a peep from the sheep. Now go after Cuomo? Too late buchers. He already won.
No, the Jewish biased auto against democrats has to go!
Culminations didn’t know any better at the time, and the crazy republicans are making a big deal ove a small amount of deaths.
