Please read… I’m writing these words with tears in my eyes.
My little son, Dudi, only two years old, is fighting a severe illness—leukemia. We are doing everything in our power to save him, but we need your help.
There’s a series of surgeries that can save him, and the first surgery he needs is complex and very expensive. This is our chance to be a family… Otherwise, I can’t even bear to think about it.
Of course, we believe and hope. Each day is filled with worry, but also with hope that good people will stand by our side. Your donation is our lifeline—you can’t imagine how much it means, and I wish that you’ll never be in this place.
Please, help us save our child. Give Dudi a chance to live, to grow, and to experience the life ...
President-elect Trump teased a "big" announcement Thursday night, sharing that North Dakota Gov. Doug Burgum will lead the Department of the Interior.
"He's going to be announced [Friday]…I look forward to doing the formal announcement, although this is a pretty big announcement right now, actually," Trump said during his speech at the Americans For Prosperity Gala at Mar-a-Lago on Thursday. "He's going to head the Department of Interior, and he's going to be fantastic."
"We're going to reduce regulation waste, fraud and inefficiency," Trump said. "We're going to clean out the corrupt, broken and failing bureaucracies. And we're going to stop child sexual mutilation. We're going to stop it because it's time."
Burgum, a multi-...

Now the Lord appeared to him in the plains of Mamre, and he was sitting at the entrance of the tent when the day was hot. And he lifted his eyes and saw, and behold, three men were standing beside him, and he saw, and he ran toward them from the entrance of the tent, and he prostrated himself to the ground. And he said, “My lords, if only I have found favor in your eyes, please do not pass on from beside your servant. Please let a little water be taken, bathe your feet, and recline under the tree. (Bereishis 18:1-4)

Baltimore, MD – Nov. 14, 2024 – Baltimore Police swiftly apprehended two suspects involved in an assault and car theft that occurred earlier this evening on Clarks Lane. The suspects assaulted an elderly man who was using a walker, pushed him to the ground, and then stole his vehicle.
Thanks to the prompt response by Baltimore Police, the suspects were taken into custody just an hour after the incident. Residents are reminded: if you are being robbed, do not resist; it is safer to comply and surrender your keys.
This swift resolution highlights Baltimore Police’s commitment to community safety.

President-elect Donald Trump is expected to nominate former presidential candidate and anti-vaccine activist Robert F. Kennedy Jr. to lead the Department of Health and Human Services, according to a person with direct knowledge of the selection.
The expected pick, which will roil many public health experts, comes after Trump promised to let Kennedy “go wild” with health and food policy in his administration after Kennedy dropped his own presidential bid to endorse the now-president-elect. It’s also a sign of the opening Trump sees after he scored a decisive electoral victory and Republicans won a comfortable majority in the Senate.
Trump could still select someone else for the post. The Trump transition couldn’t immediately be reached for comme...
US State Department spokesperson Vedant Patel rejected a United Nations report accusing Israel of genocide in Gaza.
“That is something we would unequivocally disagree with. Again, we think that kind of phrasing and those kinds of accusations are certainly unfounded," Patel told reporters on Thursday.
"The accusation of genocide, specifically in that UN commission, those accusations are unfounded,” he added.
He noted factual errors in the report, including an accusation that Israel has not allowed any aid into northern Gaza when it had.
Patel also rejected a recent Human Rights Watch report that claimed that Israel's efforts to evacuate areas of civilians to get them out of harm's way before engaging in necessary military activity are themselves war crimes.
"It is...
President-elect Donald Trump told The Post on Thursday that he opposes Gov. Kathy Hochul’s revived plan for congestion pricing for vehicles that drive through certain parts of New York City, calling it the “most regressive tax known to womankind.”
The Democratic governor is proposing a $9 toll — after an earlier plan for $15 fees went down in flames amid a middle- and working-class outcry.
“I have great respect for the Governor of New York, Kathy Hochul, and look forward to working with her to Make New York and America Great Again. But I strongly disagree with the decision on the congestion tax,” Trump said.
“It has never worked, but especially so with a city, town, or village that is trying to come back from very rough times, which ca...
NEW YORK (1010 WINS) — Gov. Kathy Hochul announced on Thursday a proposed $9-a-day modified version of Manhattan congestion pricing, months after pausing the original plan that would have charged $15 for most cars entering lower Manhattan.
“And I’m proud to announce we have found a path to define the MTA, reduce congestion, and keep millions of dollars in the pockets of our commuters,” Hochul said. “Under this plan, the MTA will be able to implement a congestion pricing program with a reduced daytime toll of $9 beginning in January. You heard that correctly—it was $15 before, and now it is $9. That’s a 40% reduction. This lower toll will save daily commuters nearly $1,500 annually, and that kind of money makes a big difference for our familie...
The ice cream maker, which is known for its vocal left-wing activism, says its parent firm violates a contract signed after a previous legal fight.
Ice cream manufacturer Ben & Jerry’s on Wednesday sued its parent company, Unilever, for allegedly blocking its efforts to voice support for Palestinians in Gaza.
The lawsuit, which was filed in the United States, claims that Unilever had threatened to dismantle Ben & Jerry’s board and pursue legal action against its members over this issue, Reuters reported.
The lawsuit highlights ongoing tensions between Ben & Jerry’s and Unilever that began in 2021 when Ben & Jerry’s announced it would no longer sell its products in Israeli communities in Judea and Samaria. Doing so ran contrary to Ben &am...

Two Canadian teens who were arrested in December and February planned to bomb a pro-Israel rally at Ottawa’s Parliament Hill, court documents obtained by Global News showed on Tuesday.
The suspects, whom Canadian police have identified only as “young persons,” are “alleged to have formed a plan last fall to violently attack Jewish persons in Ottawa, possibly through the detonation of an explosive device at a pro-Israel rally,” the Department of Justice said.
The assertion that a pro-Israel demonstration was the target of the thwarted terror attack appeared in an application by federal lawyers to withho...
Former New York State Assemblyman and founder of Americans Against Anti-Semitism Dov Hikind spoke to Arutz Sheva-Israel National News about his reaction to the reelection of Donald Trump and the recent appointments of pro-Israel officials to the new Trump Administration.
Yesterday, Hikind recorded a video of himself praying at the Western Wall in thanks for Trump's victory and appointments. He explained why he made the video this week and not the day after the election.
"I think, first of all, it's very, very important, while everyone is very excited, in the United States and in Israel, that Donald Trump was successful and has been appointing amazing individuals, I think the first thing was the message to everybody: Let's not forget HaKadosh Baruch Hu. Let's...
Dedicated in memory of the six Golani soldiers just killed in Lebanon.
On my way home, I always encounter traffic in Talpiyot, but tonight I was surprised to find that there was more than usual. I soon realized that it was because of Rachel Imeinu’s yahrzeit. On this sacred day, tens of thousands visit her grave to cry and share their pain with our mother — Mama Rachel.
Rachel Imeinu
Rachel is the one who cries for us all — her children, the Jewish people. Yaakov buried Rachel on the road out of Yerushalayim (on which I travel home) so she could cry for our ancestors as they were exiled. Hashem sent Yirmiyahu HaNavi to Rachel to ask her to cry for us, which she has continuously done ever since. She emphatically cries for our pain and suffering, but mainly over the exil...
Members of President-elect Donald Trump's transition team are drawing up a list of military officers to be fired, potentially including the Joint Chiefs of Staff, two sources said, in what would be an unprecedented shakeup at the Pentagon.
The planning for the firings is at an early stage after Trump's Nov. 5 election victory and could change as Trump's administration takes shape, said the sources, who are familiar with the Trump transition and requested anonymity to speak candidly about the plans.
One of the sources questioned the feasibility of a mass firing at the Pentagon.
It was also unclear if Trump himself would endorse the plan, although in the past, he has railed extensively against defense leaders who have criticized him. Trump has also spoken during the campaig...
