Baltimore, MD – Nov. 4, 2017 - Great sadness has descended on the Baltimore community with the passing of Rabbi Mendel Freedman on Shabbos morning, Parshas Vayaera. Rabbi Freedman was one of the pillars of the Baltimore Jewish community for the past decades. He served for close to forty years as the Principal of Bais Yaakov of Baltimore. He was an extraordinary mechanech, and thousands of bnos Yisrael were educated under his supervision. He became principal in 1979 when Bais Yaakov had but a few hundred girls, and at the time of his death, the school has burgeoned to over 1700 students. He famously ensured that he knew every student’s name, and took a personal interest in every single one of them. Rabbi Freedman was particularly dedicated to students with special needs. Many...

Annapolis, MD - Nov. 5, 2025 - Former Maryland Gov. Larry Hogan criticized Gov. Wes Moore’s plan to create a new redistricting commission, warning that the move risks undoing years of progress toward fair and independent mapmaking in the state.
“Redistricting should never be used as a political weapon,” Hogan said.
In a statement released Wednesday, Hogan said gerrymandering “is a cancer on our democracy” and argued that Maryland’s progress toward nonpartisan redistricting is now “under threat.” During his eight years in office, Hogan championed redistricting reform and established Maryland’s first truly independent Citizens Redistricting Commission.
“As governor, I cre...
Annapolis, MD - Nov. 5, 2025  - A Republican lawmaker who successfully challenged redrawn congressional districts three years ago said she is preparing to go back to court if Gov. Wes Moore and other Democrats produce a new set of districts aimed at eliminating the state’s only Republican-held seat. “This just seems like Kabuki theater,” Del. Kathy Szeliga (R-Baltimore County) said of the governor’s claims that he wants fair congressional districts. “It’s very theatrical, big on theatrics and short on substantial, genuine efforts to serve the citizens of the state of Maryland.” Moore Tuesday announced the formation of a five-member redistricting advisory commission, chaired by Sen. Angela Alsobrooks (D-Md.), to recommend “fair and repr...
Heritage Foundation President Kevin Roberts told staffers Wednesday that he “made a mistake” with his much-criticized video defending anti-Israel host Tucker Carlson, but that he wants to stay and clean up what he called “the mess.” “I made a mistake and I let you down and I let down this institution, and I am sorry for that. Period. Full stop,” Mr. Roberts said during the internal staff meeting, as shown on a video posted on YouTube by the Washington Free Beacon. The nearly two-hour gathering was private, but the video of Mr. Roberts’ remarks and questions from employees was leaked almost immediately afterward to multiple news outlets. All indications are that Mr. Roberts plans to brazen it out despite rising calls for him t...
The Federal Aviation Administration said it was ordering airline traffic to be reduced by 10% at 40 airports while air-traffic controllers work without pay during the government shutdown. Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy said starting Friday, the reduction would help keep air travel safe as flight delays and cancellations pile up. The shutdown, which began Oct. 1, has exacerbated staffing issues in the ranks of federal transportation employees, leading to flight delays and long lines at security checkpoints. “This is about where’s the pressure and how do we alleviate the pressure,” Duffy said Wednesday at a news briefing. As the shutdown has stretched on, travel businesses have sounded warnings about the impact on consumers and companies. A let...

Israeli Minister of Diaspora Affairs and Combating Antisemitism Amichai Chikli issued a stark warning following the election of Zohran Mamdani as mayor of New York City, describing the result as a "critical turning point" for the city's Jewish community. In a strongly-worded opinion column published by Fox News, Chikli wrote, "The city that once stood as the world’s beacon of liberty has handed the keys of power to a Hamas sympathizer." He added, "It is almost unthinkable that New York - the proud and historic center of Jewish life - could become the American city where Jews no longer feel at home or safe." Chikli argued that Mamdani's victory signals a broader ideological shift in New York, placing the city's future in the hands of a figure he said "r...
New York City Mayor-elect Zorhan Mamdani responded to a new Anti-Defamation League (ADL) initiative to monitor his administration, as well as the harsh criticism from the organization's CEO and National Director, Jonathan Greenblatt. Speaking to the press on the day after his election, Mamdani stated that he had not met with Greenblatt and claimed that he takes the issue of antisemitism "incredibly seriously." He noted that in his victory speech, "I spoke about how my City Hall will stand steadfast with Jewish New Yorkers in fighting antisemitism across the city and making that clear in the actions that we deliver on January 1st." The Mayor-elect added, "I look forward to working with Jewish leaders across this city, whether they're elected officials, rabbis, or community...
