דער הייליגער קאסובער רבי זי״ע פלעגט זאגן:
״מען דארף אוועקשטעלן א שטיין און זאגן: "כביכול, כביכול, פה הקב״ה - וועט דער עולם אנהייבן דאווענען צום אויבערשטן, אנשטאט צו לויפן צו קברים.״

UPDATE: The attacker allegedly used a syringe to stab a Jewish victim today in Manhattan. It is not yet clear if the syringe contained anything.
The victim is in stable condition.
Manhattan Shomrim are advertising this image of the attacker.

Governor @KathyHochul is sweeping the organized Jewish community.
Why?
1. She has been unequivocally supportive of yeshivas.
2. She passed the buffer-zone bill protecting schools and shuls.
3. She stands with Israel.
4. She genuinely likes Jews.
5. We like her back.

This afternoon, I stood in solidarity with horse-drawn carriage owners on the steps of City Hall to call for a fair transition and present a practical solution as the horse-carriage industry phases out.

Thanks to all my constituents who stopped by my mobile office hours today outside @Masbia in #ForestHills. My team and I provided information on federal resources, offered assistance with government agencies and distributed PPE. 1/2

The Masbia pantry in Borough Park, Brooklyn, drew long lines this week, with some traveling from across the city to collect staples as the pandemic has increased food insecurity. buff.ly/36gDEnn

Your questions are based on bizarre myths:
1. This new development is privately funded.
2. They are NOT actively keeping anyone out. They are simply marketing to communities that would want to live there, which makes sense.
3. Girls do not receive an inferior education to boys.

America is not a Catholic country. It's not an "any religion" country. But if it were one religion, it would be Protestant, not Catholic. You're being silly. The extremists on the right hate you as much as anyone else.

There’s something ironic about watching @EylonALevy, famous for pushing back against hostile, loaded questions from pro-Palestinian TV anchors, turn around and use similar tactics when questioning @NechumiYaffe of @hatziburha about the Haredi Public.
Sometimes, the hostility Jews face from the outside sounds disturbingly similar to the hostility religious Jews face from fellow Jews. Different topics, but the same generalizations, double standards, and underlying contempt.
This time, the tables turned. Nechumi pushed back and gave Eylon a taste of his own medicine.
Quite an exchange. Worth watching!

This is so sad.
These same 25 people show up to support Hamas at every rally in NY but none of their Hamas-supporting friends show up for them.
“Massive support” indeed.
Coming up shortly on News 12! We’re all watching the weather and wondering how it will affect our experience in the #Sukkah during the first days of #Sukkos. I spoke with reporter #EstefaniaSalinas from @News12BK about the weather, the Sukkah, and what it could mean for the holiday.

The mystical guests of #Sukkos, the USHPIZIN, cannot eat the food on your table. The #Zohar (Kabalah) teaches that their spiritual nourishment comes from the food you gave to the poor before #YomTov.
Feed a family. Welcome the #Ushpizin.
