The IDF on Sunday revealed intelligence documents showing that the "Spokesperson for the Civil Defense in the Gaza Strip," who has been the primary source for hundreds of false statements by media outlets worldwide, is not merely under the influence of Hamas, but is an actual Hamas agent.
Throughout the current war, the IDF has recommended that media outlets be wary of reports and casualty statistics provided by Mahmoud Zabar Tafesh Bassal and his team at the "civil defense" for Gaza based on the idea that almost any official institution in Gaza was under Hamas's influence, given that the terror group was ready to kill or mame anyone who did not toe its line on public relations messages.
However, on Sunday, the IDF revealed an analysis of actual intelligence documents found dur...
The National Guard will be deployed to Los Angeles County after anti-ICE protests continued to escalate Saturday afternoon, Trump administration border czar Tom Homan told Fox News Saturday.
On Saturday, tear gas was deployed near Home Depot in Paramount, California, where Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) officers were allegedly conducting a raid.
Following the raid, a violent protest broke out and several arrests were made for assault on a federal agent, according to U.S. Border Patrol Chief Michael W. Banks.
President Donald Trump took to Truth Social to call out state and local leadership's inaction.
"If Governor Favin Newscum, of California, and Mayor Karen Bass, of Los Angeles, can't do their jobs, which everyone knows they can't, then the ...
Baltimore, MD - June 7, 2025 - Officials with Johns Hopkins Medicine confirmed Friday night that 5,000 gallons of diesel fuel spilled into the Inner Harbor.
Early estimates were initially at 2,000 gallons.
There continues to be no impact on the drinking water and the spill remains contained in the marina at the South Central Avenue Bridge in Harbor East.
Governor Wes Moore and Mayor Brandon Scott released a joint statement Friday saying the State of Maryland, City of Baltimore, and the United States Coast Guard are continuing to clean up remnants of the spill that occurred Wednesday morning.
The Maryland Department of Environment, in partnership with the United States Coast Guard, and in coordination with the City of Baltimore, will assume oversight of the sustained cleanup operation S...
The Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) and the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) have issued a public service announcement highlighting an increased threat to Jewish and Israeli communities in the United States. This alert follows two violent incidents in recent weeks.
On June 1, 2025, an individual attacked a pro-Israel gathering in Boulder, Colorado, by throwing two Molotov cocktails, injuring at least nine people. This incident came shortly after a separate attack in late May, where two Israeli Embassy staffers were shot and killed after attending an event at the Capitol Jewish Museum in Washington, D.C. The assailant in the Washington attack reportedly cited grievances related to Israel's treatment of Gazans.
The FBI and DHS warn that the ongoing Israel-Hamas conflict may...
The Trump administration has moved to return Kilmar Abrego Garcia from imprisonment in a Salvadoran facility in order to file a criminal case against him with charges stemming from a 2022 traffic stop in Tennessee, an attorney for Abrego Garcia told The Hill.
The return of Abrego Garcia, who was mistakenly deported despite being protected from removal to his home country, comes after administration officials had fought court rulings ordering his return. White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt said he would never live a “peaceful” life in the U.S.
Abrego Garcia was pulled over for speeding as he was driving from St. Louis to his home in Maryland, and video of the incident shows the officer skeptical of a van full of passengers without any luggage.
Newly unseale...

Baltimore, MD - June 5, 2025 - Every Sunday morning for the past 18 months, Baltimoreans have marched in solidarity with the hostages held in Gaza, and with the hostages' families. The march in Baltimore is part of an international campaign to ensure that the plight of the hostages is not forgotten and to demand the hostages' immediate release.
The reprehensible attack that took place last Sunday was an attempt to cower, intimidate, and silence not only the marchers in Boulder, but all who pray for the release of the hostages—both worldwide and right here in Baltimore. We cannot, and will not, allow this to happen.
This Sunday, June 8 (marking 611 days in captivity), the entire community is urged to join the march and demonstrate to the media and to the general publi...
A federal judge has blocked President Donald Trump’s bid to prevent international students from entering the U.S. or getting visas to attend Harvard University.
U.S. District Judge Allison Burroughs issued a temporary restraining order Thursday night instructing the Department of Homeland Security and the State Department to disregard a proclamation Trump issued Wednesday wielding presidential immigration authority to effectively ban foreign nationals from entering the U.S. to study or teach at Harvard.
In a two-page order, Burroughs said Harvard showed it “will sustain immediate and irreparable injury before there is an opportunity to hear from all parties” about the legality of Trump’s directive. The judge’s order came less th...

Dear Friends,

After seven incredible years of devoted leadership, we share bittersweet news that Rabbi Yossi Kohen will be stepping down from his role as Director of Torah Youth Association (TYA), a position he has held since 2018.

Baltimore, MD – June 6, 2025 – A huge Mazal Tov to Rabbi Flamm’s TA 10th grade shiur for learning Mesechta Sota throughout the school year, culminating in a well-earned and delicious siyum!!
Mazal Tov gentlemen — what an incredible accomplishment!!
A wife who had been warned by her husband from secluding with a man he suspects may have immoral intentions, and then ignores her husband's wishes, may be forced by her husband to drink the 'bitter waters' to prove her innocence or face the horrific consequences if she committed adultery.
The husband must bring a meal-offering on her behalf before the test of the Sotah water. It consists of barley rather than the usual ingredient of meal-offerings, wheat. The departure from the norm is to symbolize her having acted like an animal who normally feeds on barley, so too her offering is the 'meal' of an animal.
We also omit the customary oil that is mixed into a meal-offering to signify her having done a dark deed, denying her the medium that produces light.
