Happy Jerusalem Day! 🇮🇱 Today, we honor Jerusalem, the eternal capital of Israel. A city filled with history, faith, strength, and hope that continues to inspire and unite generations around the world. Yom Yerushalayim Sameach! 💙🤍

Imagine being so morally bankrupt that you design, order, pay for, and proudly hang a terrorist flag at NYU’s graduation. It takes a special kind of vile low-life to turn a celebration of achievement into a glorification of hate. Whoever is responsible should be expelled immediately if they’re a student and prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law. Enough is enough.

The Palestinian Authority is reinforcing and institutionalizing its notorious “pay-for-slay” policy - a system designed to incentivize the murder of Israelis. The PA through its court has now cleared the way to reinstate payments to more than 1,600 convicted terrorists.

“The Truth About Hamas” is difficult to read, and impossible to ignore. “Every night I wake to it and apologize to her,” says Nova survivor Yoni Saadon, who hid beneath the body of a murdered woman to stay alive. The Wall Street Journal displays the Civil Commission’s report - testimonies, forensic evidences and hostages accounts, that the world must neither forget nor deny. wsj.com/opinion/hamas-…

For years, Iran’s terror proxies Hamas and Hezbollah built vast underground networks beneath Gaza and southern Lebanon: kilometers of tunnels used to store weapons, hide operatives, house command centers, and launch attacks against Israeli civilians, including the October 7 massacre. This week, the IDF uncovered and dismantled major sections of these networks in Gaza (including Rafah) and in the Labbouneh area of southern Lebanon - exposing a massive terror infrastructure deliberately embedded beneath civilian areas.

The NY Times is placing accusations of “mass rape” by the IDF and Israeli officials on its front page based solely on the testimonies of 14 individuals, many reportedly linked to Hamas, without a single piece of corroborating evidence. Allegations of this magnitude demand facts, not anonymous claims presented as truth, and certainly not as opinion journalism. Truly disgusting and dangerous. More below👇🏼:

In a media landscape full of @nytimes blood libels, it's good to have people like @ScottJenningsKY, who shine a light at the truth. Watch my full interview 👇🏻

The @nytimes, in service of a Hamas-driven narrative, deliberately timed its piece to undermine today’s horrific Civil Commission report documenting Hamas’ preplanned, systematic sexual atrocities on Oct. 7 and against hostages thereafter - attempting to create false equivalence and belittle documented crimes. Built on unverified claims and Hamas-linked sources like EMHRM. No evidence. No verified complaints. A politically driven smear campaign by a biased paper designed to support efforts to blacklist Israel. This disgusting shameful piece must be removed immediately.

Join us today 🎙

The biased NYT piece relies on unverified sources tied to Hamas-linked networks. The main source: EMHRM, whose founder Ramy Abdu has documented ties to senior Hamas leaders. This isn’t journalism. It’s Hamas propaganda, a distortion of the truth and the facts all serving an anti-Israel agenda.

Full depravity of Hamas during October 7 revealed for the first time: New report details how terrorists performed almost unimaginable horrors upon Israeli families trib.al/olj7tnv

Months ago, the Civil Commission approached the New York Times with a report on Hamas’ systematic sexual violence on Oct. 7 and after. The @nytimes said it was not interested. This comprehensive and well-documented report was published this morning by CNN and other international outlets. Aware of the report and its release date, the night before its release the NYT ran a shameful attack on Israel, belittling Hamas’ sexual crimes. That tells you everything about the NYT's agenda.

“‘The most comprehensive body of evidence yet’ of Hamas’ sexual and gender-based violence on Oct. 7, described as ‘systematic, widespread, and integral to’ the attack.” CNN reports investigators spent 2 years reviewing evidence and survivor testimony. cnn.com/2026/05/12/mid…

The @nytimes and @NickKristof count on you not pulling the curtain back on their lies. Don’t buy into their blood libels - watch and find out who’s really behind this narrative.

Today, the @nytimes chose to publish one of the worst blood libels ever to appear in the modern press. In an unfathomable inversion of reality, and through an endless stream of baseless lies, propagandist Nicholas Kristof turns the victim into the accused. Israel - whose citizens were the victims of the most horrific sexual crimes committed by Hamas on October 7, and whose hostages were later subjected to further sexual abuse - is portrayed as the guilty party. This publication is no coincidence. It is part of a false and well-orchestrated anti-Israel campaign aimed at placing Israel on the UN Secretary-General’s blacklist. Israel will fight these lies with the truth - and the truth will prevail.

It was a pleasure to meet today with @RepRobinKelly in Matteson to discuss how we can strengthen the partnership between Israel and Illinois. The Illinois Second Congressional District is a microcosm of the United States, stretching from the South Side of Chicago to the southwest suburbs. The district is home to major civic, technological, and agricultural institutions, including the Obama Presidential Center, the Illinois Quantum and Microelectronics Park, and a strong agricultural sector with more than 1,000 farms. These are all areas where Israeli technology and innovation can contribute meaningfully. I thanked Congresswoman Kelly for her hospitality, and I look forward to working together to build lasting, meaningful ties between our communities. 🇮🇱🇺🇸

This month, America celebrates Jewish American Heritage Month. It is a moment to recognize the generations of Jewish Americans who helped shape this country through science, medicine, business, culture, public service, and the fight for civil rights, but also through values: responsibility, education, hard work, and hope. Especially today, at a time when antisemitism is rising and Jewish identity is challenged, Jewish American Heritage Month matters more than ever. Grateful for the friendship, leadership, and sense of community I see every day across the American Midwest, and for the deep bond between the United States and Israel rooted in our shared values. Shabbat Shalom. 🇺🇸🇮🇱

This is absolutely disgusting. Even when we disagree, @BarakRavid is a phenomenal journalist who looks first at his readers and always strive to get the the truth, even when it’s inconvenient for us, government officials. And this is what journalism is all about. There should be no room for such vile antisemitic attack.

It was just a matter of time until the Antisemites come out of their filthy holes and join the campaign of lies against me. The classic tropes: Mossad, controlling the world, trying to make money. Decent people here should come out publicly against this kind of hate

Did you know the first planetarium in the Western Hemisphere was founded by an Illinois-born Jewish American? This Jewish American Heritage Month, we’re highlighting Max Adler, a businessman and philanthropist from Elgin. In 1930, he helped bring the stars closer to Chicago by founding the Adler Planetarium. His vision became one of the city’s most beloved places for generations of visitors to explore science, astronomy, and the wonder of the universe. 🪐✨
