Despite her name, probable Biden nominee to head CDC is NOT “Jewish”
Ancestry isn’t everything.
BS”D
Preface: I know this is a weighty topic. Please see the source from Maimonides now included at the end of the article, and please contact me directly if you would like to discuss something.
In their ongoing game of theatrics, the puppet masters are working to quiet the increasing public distrust of the CDC.
They still think they can con the world by switching the lead puppets, so wicked Walensky, a prominent face of the government’s deadly “pandemic response” and COVID-19 vaccine push, is out.
She will be replaced by another brainwashed kapo, ready to do her owner’s bidding. Of course, there will be no change in the CDC culture at all. If anything, Biden nominee Mandy Cohen is even more insane than Walensky was.
Excerpted from Alex Berenson’s June 2 article on his site Unreported Truths:
URGENT: Joe Biden is about to pick the worst possible person to become the next CDC head
I'm not exaggerating. Dr. Mandy Cohen, the likely choice, is a public health Covid authoritarian and former chief of staff for censorer-in-chief Andy Slavitt.
Just what America needs.
Another Covid hysteric running the Centers for Disease Control.
Proving it has learned all the wrong lessons since 2021, the Biden Administration is about to choose Dr. Mandy Cohen to replace Dr. Rochelle Walensky as director of the Centers for Disease Control.
Cohen shares the same health authoritarian impulses as Walensky. She supported mask and vaccine mandates - and lockdowns even in 2021. But she is apparently more bureaucratically competent, and thus more dangerous, than Walensky.
Cohen is also very close to Andy Slavitt, whom I am suing in Berenson v Biden for his efforts to censor me. Her choice suggests Slavitt still has considerable influence in the Biden Administration two years after officially leaving the White House.
Stunningly, despite their vast similarities in professional training and life experience, Cohen and Walensky have tons in common.
They both approached Covid by maximizing hysteria and government overreach. Like Walensky, Cohen loves her face diapers.
In fact, she loves them more than Walensky. In December 2021, Cohen said that “everyone” needed to keep wearing masks. “Even if you’re vaccinated, you should wear a mask,” she said. Even the CDC had dropped its mask requirements for vaccinated people seven months before.
Besides pushing lockdowns through March 2021, Cohen also threatened legal action against a school district that wanted to drop quarantines and contact tracing - in September 2021, long after Covid’s lack of risk to school-age children became apparent. She pushed jab mandates for health care workers and explicitly tied loosening restrictions to vaccination levels.
In other words, Cohen has heartily supported every authoritarian measure that the last three years have proven useless. Of course, to the White House, her views are a feature, not a bug. And the Biden Administration seems to believe she will be able to make the CDC even more willing to follow its lead.
“White House officials were drawn to Cohen’s track record of leadership at the federal and state level, said people familiar with the process who spoke on the condition of anonymity,” the Washington Post reported. “That’s a stark contrast to Walensky, who was in her first leadership role in government.”
As Slavitt told the Post: “What the CDC needs now is what Mandy Cohen brings… I’ve worked with her as close as anyone and if she’s the choice, the country is in for a treat.”
Let’s all try not to choke.
But please don’t make the mistake of calling Mandy Cohen “Jewish.” There is a LOT that underlies being a true Jew, and Mandy Cohen clearly hasn’t got it.
My Rabbi - a senior Torah scholar and Halachic authority - explains:
A Jew is ONLY someone who believes in the 13 Principles as enumerated by Maimonides. As he says explicitly. Otherwise he has no right to being called a Jew.
What are those 13 Principles of Faith?
I believe with faith that is complete that the Creator - blessed be His Name - He creates and guides all that were created, and that He alone made, makes, and will make everything that is made.
I believe with faith that is complete that the Creator - blessed be His Name - He is unique and there is no uniqueness like Him in any way, and that He alone is our God, Who was, Who is, and Who always will be.
I believe with faith that is complete that the Creator - blessed be His Name - is not physical and is not subject to phenomena that are physical, and that there is not to Him any comparison whatsoever.
I believe with faith that is complete that the Creator - blessed be His Name - He is the very first and He is the very last.
I believe with faith that is complete that the Creator - blessed be His Name - to Him alone is it proper to pray, and to no other is it proper to pray.
I believe with faith that is complete that all the words of the prophets are true.
I believe with faith that is complete that the prophecy of Moses our teacher - peace be upon him - was true, and that he was the father of the prophets, both those who preceded him and those who came after him.
I believe with faith that is complete that the entire Torah that is found now in our hands is the same one that was given to Moses our teacher - peace be upon him.
I believe with faith that is complete that this Torah will not be exchanged, nor will there be another Torah from the Creator - blessed be His Name.
I believe with faith that is complete that the Creator - blessed be His Name - knows all the deeds of human beings and all their thoughts, as it is said: “He Who fashions together their hearts, Who comprehends all their deeds.”
I believe with faith that is complete that the Creator- blessed be His Name - rewards with good those who observe His commandments, and punishes those who violate His commandments.
I believe with faith that is complete in the coming of the Messiah, and even though he may delay - with all that - I await him every day, certain that he will come.
I believe with faith that is complete that there will be a revivification of the dead whenever there arises the will (for it) from the Creator - blessed be His Name and exalted be His mention - forever and for all eternity.
My Rabbi explains Maimonides’ words:
Judaism is a Religion, first.
We are a “family” only as a result of adherence to the Religion. That is why people who do not share the essential beliefs in One G-d and His Torah have no right to consider themselves Jewish.
Clearly, those who subscribe to those 13 Principles cannot simultaneously act as Walensky and Cohen have behaved. So no, they’re not actually “Jewish”, despite their ancestry.
They are NOT what true Jews are about. Walensky and Mandy Cohen et al do NOT represent us. We completely reject them and their actions.
In fact, people who act in ways that are hateful to G-d put themselves in a very unenviable position. If they are enemies of G-d, then true G-d fearing Jews are actually required to hate them - as my Rabbi reminds me. (See Psalms 139:21-22.)
Did I not hate Your enemies, O Lord? With those who rise up against You, I quarrel. I hate them with utmost hatred; they have become my enemies.
They were the Kapos in Treblinka. They are the Soroses. Evil to us first and then to the whole world.
Not only that, but he explains that these people don’t even have a share in the Next World.
(This is a good time to mention that Judaism teaches that righteous G-d fearing non-Jews who keep the 7 Noahide Laws that are incumbent upon all humanity, as commanded in the Torah, do have a share in the Next World.)
All this begs the question, WHY do they keep appointing people with Jewish-sounding names as the fall guys for their murderous policies? (Could it just maybe, possibly, have anything to do with trying to make Jewish people look bad? Just a theory….)
Someone really ought to give Mandy the memo before she accepts this suicidal nomination. She has nothing to gain and everything to lose. The woman is being used, unfortunate brainwashed puppet that she is, and she will be thrown away like a crumpled tissue when her name becomes irredeemably sullied from promoting her owners’ agendas, whether in a year, or two, or more. She has no chance of emerging smelling like a rose. None at all.
P.S. In response to the question, “doesn’t being born of a Jewish mother make one Jewish?” my Rabbi explains:
A Jewish mother just gives one the responsibilities of being Jewish. The privileges depend on Emunah.
There are a number of other situations where personal status is decided by matrilineal descent. Such as being able to have a legal marriage with a Jewish woman etc. But as Maimonides wrote, all privileges of Jewishness are dependent on firm belief in the Jewish credo.
I realize that this post will be upsetting to some people, and others will have a hard time accepting the veracity of what my Rabbi said. So, here is the actual source, which my Rabbi sent me photos of, in Maimonides’ monumental work.
