Thank you @NYPDBklynSouth Chief Minch @NYPD61Pct @NYPD63Pct @NYPD70Pct @NYPD60Pct @NYPD66Pct @NYPD62Pct @NYPDCommAffairs @NYPDPC @BrooklynDA for the pre Passover security briefing @FlatbushJCC leadership.

The fact that Piers thinks this is fascinating is deeply telling. The visceral hate of Israel by the Palegandists and their dupes in the media has been irrational and hyperbolic. These professional bigots have stoked the masses into a froth of anti-Israel demonization based on mistruths, and predisposed antisemitic bias and less on context and facts. This kind of myopic organized gang mentality gets widely exposed every time egregious and legitimate crimes against humanity goes unnoticed and intentionally ignored. Syria, Africa and now Iran, are just the latest examples of their overwhelming hypocrisy and duplicity. "No Jews, No News" has never been more evident. Where's Greta, Cenk, and the rest of the opportunists? Silent and thats exactly the point.

Fascinating to observe the almost total silence from loudly pro-Palestinian celebrities & media figures re the courageous Iranian protestors risking their lives for freedom and democracy. Suggests their hatred of Israel overrides intellectual honesty and principle.

Today we had the pleasure to sit down with @misaskim & @NYPDCommAffairs to discuss our ongoing commitments to serve the community

Today, Deputy Inspector Wernerbach met with members of Hatzolah to discuss ways to strengthen our partnership and keep public safety a top priority in our community. 🤝 #CommunityPartnership #PublicSafety

@Uber How do you get customer support? Going around in circles. Ridiculous system

The world’s silence about the deliberate starvation of Israeli hostages—at the hands of Hamas and Islamic Jihad—is as deafening as its hypocrisy. Expect the images of emaciated Israeli bodies, starved in captivity, to appear nowhere in the pages of most major American newspapers. A humanitarianism that devalues Jewish life is no humanitarianism at all, for it has been hollowed out by antisemitism.

Police Officer Didarul Islam represented the very best of our department.  He was protecting New Yorkers from danger when his life was tragically cut short today. We join in prayer during this time of incomprehensible pain. We will forever honor his legacy. #FidelisAdMortem

Misaskim, alongside @hatzalah, Shomrim and other community leaders, attended a meeting w/@NYPDChiefOfDept @NYPDChiefPatrol as well as top brass from @NYPDTransport @NYPDHighway & @NYPDCommAffairs where we strengthened our existing partnerships to help better assist our community

Let me give you a glimpse into one of the most misunderstood communities in the world — the Hasidic and Orthodox Jews. And this is just one example. One window. One real-life moment out of thousands happening every single day in their world. You may see them on the street and think they’re different, and sure, they dress differently, live differently, pray differently. But you don’t see what happens when things go wrong. When someone’s life is suddenly flipped upside down. When the call comes in that a child collapsed, a mother can’t breathe, a grandfather passed out, or a father had a stroke. They don’t stand around. They call Hatzalah. Their own emergency response team — made up entirely of volunteers. And I’m not talking about volunteers who sign up to feel good once a month. I’m talking about full-blown commitment. These men — most of them working full-time jobs, with families of their own — will leave a wedding, leave work, leave Shabbat dinner mid-kiddush if they have to. They run. And they show up in under three minutes. Faster than any city ambulance ever could. With equipment, with, calm, and with a sense of responsibility. Because in their world, when a Jew is in trouble, it’s all of their business. Then you’re in the hospital. You are scared, and tired. You haven’t eaten. You’re fasting without meaning to. And then someone tells you, “Go check out the Chesed Room.” You walk down a hallway, open a door with a small sign that says Chesed Room — and boom. A fully stocked kitchen. Hot coffee. Cold drinks. Kosher snacks. Fresh rolls. Shabbos food — I’m talking full meals: challah, grape juice, kugel, dips, fish, soup. All restocked constantly, and they are all freshly made by people who don’t want recognition. No sign with names. Just quiet, and powerful kindness. And if you're from out of town? With no hotel or place to sleep, they’ve already thought of that too. There are apartments, and entire homes, set aside just for families dealing with hospital stays, all free of charge, and filled with everything you need. You’ll get keys handed to you by someone who already made sure the fridge is full. They don’t just take care of the patient — they take care of the people standing beside them. But the chesed doesn’t stop with food. You’re sitting at your loved one’s bedside. It’s day 3. You haven’t smiled once. And then a guy walks in with a guitar and starts singing. A group of volunteers shows up with pastries and good vibes. Someone sits down and just listens. For 20 minutes. For an hour. Whatever you need. You don't know them and thy don't you, but it feels like you are friends from a long time. And when your family needs to switch shifts, and your wife has to go home, of if your brother wants to come visit, you call one of the countless chesed drivers. These aren’t paid car services. These are regular guys. Fathers of six. Store owners. Teachers, etc. They take time out of their own day — on a regular Tuesday — to drive people they don’t even know. Free of charge. No tips. No payment. Not even a Venmo. And if the hospital stay becomes long, and insurance bills and letters are starting to pile up — you turn to RCCS. This is not just an organization. It’s a machine of compassion. They will sit with you, walk you through the world of medical insurance, apply on your behalf, get approvals, and book you appointments with the best doctors in the country. Not just any doctor, but literally the best. The kind of doctors' people wait 6 months to see, they’ll get you in by next week. They make calls. They advocate. They push. Because to them, your fight is their fight. And they do this not just for you. They do this for everyone in their community who needs it. There’s no “Do you deserve it?” No red tape. Just: You’re in pain? You need help? Say no more. And don’t even get me started on the food deliveries back home. If word gets out that someone’s in the hospital or sick, there’s already a WhatsApp group formed. Dinners are arriving at your house. Groceries show up at your door. Before you even think to ask for help, it’s already in motion. They’ve built a world where kindness is by default. Where showing up for each other is expected. Where they may disagree, argue, stress each other out, but when someone is hurting, they drop everything and go. Because this is how they were raised. They don’t pay for this. They don’t outsource it. They are it. And all this isn’t a special story. This isn’t a one-time miracle. This is daily life. Hundreds, thousands of calls. Rides. Meals. Doctors. Smiles. Support. Day in, day out. From Brooklyn to Jerusalem, from London to Lakewood. Everywhere they are — this heartbeat follows. You can mock their clothes, roll your eyes at their customs, call them old-fashioned. But what they’ve built is something the world could learn from. Not perfection. Not holiness. Just raw, human compassion — at scale. So yeah, they might look different. But beneath the hat, behind the beard, under the black coat — is someone who will show up for you when no one else does. That’s the truth. And remember, this is just one example.

Yesterday, we met with @hatzalah of Flatbush to see firsthand how they run their operations and collaborate with the NYPD to keep our neighborhoods safe. Grateful for their dedication and partnership in serving the community.

I want to extend my sincere gratitude to the @FlatbushJCC for hosting myself and other NYPD executives as we finalized safety preparations for the holiday. Ensuring the safety of our communities is always our top priority, and our partnership is invaluable in making that possible

Today the NYPD family, we would like to welcome our community to our Pre-Passover Safety Briefing. This important event brings together NYPD leadership, faith leaders, and community partners to discuss safety measures, share vital information, and strengthen our commitment to protecting all who celebrate this meaningful holiday. Passover is a central observance in the Jewish faith, commemorating the journey to freedom and renewal. As families gather to observe this sacred tradition, the NYPD remains committed to ensuring all New Yorkers can celebrate safely and peacefully.

We are deeply grateful for our community’s heartfelt recognition of our Officers’ hard work and dedication. Together, we continue to build a safer and more connected community, and we are honored to serve you. Thank you for your continued trust with us in this important work.
