Hatzalah provides emergency medical services to all individuals, regardless of race, religion, or ethnicity, and this policy applies at all times, including on Shabbos. As a life-saving organization, they treat any person in need of urgent care, adhering to the principle that saving a life takes precedence Saving a life takes precedence" refers to the Jewish legal and ethical principle of pikuach nefesh, which dictates that preserving human life overrides almost all other religious commandments. When a life is endangered, prohibitions regarding Shabbat, fasting, or dietary laws are suspended to ensure safety, highlighting that Jewish law prioritizes all living

Yes, a Jewish charity runs one of the biggest free Halal food distributions for Ramadan. If that bothers you, I honestly don’t care. In a crazy world, we look out for each other. Proud of my @MetCouncil team.

The Sunday New York Times wrote a terrific profile of my friend of 25 years, @jacobkornbluh. Jacob is not only one of the best journalists out there, brilliant at his craft, but also one of the nicest and kindest people you will ever meet nytimes.com/2026/02/01/nyr…

On this day, 81 years ago, the Nazi Auschwitz concentration camp was liberated by the Red Army. Millions of children, women, and men were murdered there during the Holocaust for no crime other than being Jewish. This dark chapter of history is a stark reminder of the devastating consequences of hatred and prejudice. Humanity owes it to every victim and survivor to ensure that it never happens again. Never forget where hatred can lead #HolocaustRemembranceDay

The antisemitic graffiti in Borough Park is disgusting. We must reject antisemitism and hate in all its forms, and stand strong with the Jewish community. Anyone who targets innocent New Yorkers must be held accountable.
Community Board 12@BrooklynCB12

Same park different day. A day later and this is what happened. We are requesting that @NYPDHateCrimes pull out all the stops to catch these vile Jew haters.

Shoutout to @aijamayrock for telling the truth about the Hasidic community in New York. Truth matters more than social media clicks
aijamayrock@aijamayrock

I used to be scared of Hasidic Jews. So I went to Hasidic Williamsburg and I spent several days actually talking to the Jews there, with no agenda. And I can tell you this: I was wrong. And @tyleraloevera is wrong too. This is the truth about the Hasidic Jews in New York: 1. Most of these people are the descendants of Holocaust survivors whose entire family was destroyed. The philosophy of those that survived in this community is: "Maybe the only way to survive is to preserve our culture and not interact with the outside world." 2. As a result of this philosophy, most of these communities have not assimilated. But they have built self sustaining communities for decades - their own bakeries, technology stores, schools - as self preservation. Jews and non Jews can live in these communities. 3. It is NOT a community of people "studying Torah" and defrauding the American taxpayer. I literally did not meet 1 person who just "studies" and doesn't have a job. People have normal businesses, work normal jobs. 4. They have a lot of kids, not as some big Welfare scam, but because they literally follow the Torah. "Be fruitful and multiply." 5. They are not racist. They just simply don't talk to outsiders much. They are very private and quiet. And they just want to be left alone. 6. There is a lot of poverty because of a mix of culture, religion and very large families. But they literally support one another with mutual aid. These are the least materialistic people I have ever met. @tyleraloevera's video is calculated, blatantly inaccurate, and just some good ol' fashion anti semitism.

First they came for the Socialists, and I did not speak out— Because I was not a Socialist. Then they came for the Trade Unionists, and I did not speak out— Because I was not a Trade Unionist. Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out— Because I was not a Jew. Then they came for me—and there was no one left to speak for me. (Pastor Martin Niemöller, about the Holocaust.)

🚨Welcome to Kiryas, Joel: A village of 44,000 Hasidic Jews in up-state New York living off the teat of welfare programs and according to Jewish Talmudic law. -99% of this village’s residents are Hasidic Jews -they speak primarily Yiddish -40% live below the federal poverty line -40-60% receiving SNAP assistance -reports estimate an average of 7 children per woman, some of the highest fertility rates in the developed world. -median age is 15 years old -almost all children attend private religious schools (yeshivas) -per capita income is $13,000 per year, which is extremely low compared to NY averages -they vote as a bloc -one of the fastest growing cities in New York -practically impossible to move into as a non-Jew Kiryas Joel has a very high rate of “poverty”, AND extremely high reliance on state-funded social services like Medicaid, housing vouchers, food stamps, cash benefits, and substantial federal aid, especially through its school district— because many men focus on religious study, limiting income. If Americans are upset about Somalis in Minneapolis NOT assimilating, and living according to “Sharia Law” while sucking the teat of welfare programs, then what’s the excuse for this religious ethno-state feeding their massive families with your secular tax-dollars? AND if Hasidic Jews can live exclusively together in their own Jewish ethno-state, then why can’t white people legally self-segregate in America? Here is the full 40-minute documentary. Share it with a fellow gentile 🇺🇸

1.Subway fares are set by the MTA, which is a state-run agency 2.The fare increase was approved by the MTA Board on September 30, before Mamdani was elected and more than three months before he took office 3.Mamdani never pledged to make all public transit free; it was buses he promised would be free. 4.The fare increase was decided independently of Mamdani and was not something he had the authority to approve or block Its
