No one should have to drive 50-100 miles to see a specialist. Many of Dr. Cara Leahy’s patients do.
In today’s Solving Alzheimer’s piece, she lays out the policy fixes to change that, starting with Medicare covering the new FDA-cleared blood biomarker test.

Look at this image.
It is the entire story of the Jewish people captured in a single heartbreaking frame.
Tonight, as Israel marks Holocaust Remembrance Day, Channel 12 broadcast a special 'Zikaron BaSalon' (Memories in the Living Room). Sitting side by side are two men who have looked pure evil in the eyes and lived to tell the tale.
On the left is Rabbi Yisrael Meir Lau. He is a Holocaust survivor who was liberated from the hell of the Buchenwald concentration camp as an eight-year-old orphan. He rose from the ashes of Europe to help build the State of Israel, eventually becoming its Chief Rabbi.
On the right is Eli Sharabi. On October 7th, Hamas terrorists invaded his home, murdered his wife and two young daughters, and dragged him into the dark terror tunnels of Gaza. He miraculously survived 491 agonizing days in captivity before finally being freed.
Two generations. Two unfathomable traumas. Two different monsters separated by eight decades who sought to eradicate the Jewish people.
Rabbi Lau survived the Nazis. Eli Sharabi survived Hamas.
Together on screen, their presence is a testament to an unbearable collective grief, but also to an unbreakable spirit. One rebuilt his life from absolute nothingness, and the other is just beginning the unimaginable journey of doing the exact same thing.
It is a picture of ultimate defiance.
They tried to destroy us then. They tried to destroy us now.
But we are still here. We will always be here. Am Yisrael Chai. 🇮🇱🕯️

On the 27th June, 1976, two “Palestinian” PLO terrorists and two German militants hijacked an Air France plane in Greece with 248 passengers and air crew. They forced the plane to land in Libya for refueling, and then to Entebbe, Uganda. The hijackers were greeted by the Ugandans and three more Palestinian hijackers joined them in Entebbe.
They separated the Israeli passengers from non Israelis, releasing the non Israelis who were flown to France. The crew chose to remain with the Israeli hostages. The Ugandan military was deployed to assist the hijackers and the Ugandan airforce was put on standby to prevent any foreign forces from any potential rescue missions.
On July 3rd, 1976, the Israeli government authorized a rescue mission. Yonatan Netanyahu (Benjamin Netanyahu’s older brother) was head of the elite commando unit sent to Uganda to rescue the 106 remaining hostages. Once there, they destroyed most of the Ugandan aircraft, took out all the hijackers, and killed almost 50 Ugandan soldiers who were helping the hijackers.
The Israelis were helped by the Kenyan government, and this led to the Ugandan president to order all Kenyans in Uganda to be slaughtered. Over 240 Kenyans were killed and several thousand fled.
Only one Israeli commando was killed in the operation… Yonatan Netanyahu. Four hostages were also killed, one of which wasn’t killed during the operation, but rather by Ugandan soldiers who murdered her at the hospital where she was being treated.
This was one of the greatest rescue operations of all time.
And who were the most vocal critics that condemned the rescue operation??? None other than the United Nations led by Kurt Waldheim who himself was later found to have been a senior Nazi officer during World War Two.
Think about that for a moment. Innocent people were taken hostage by armed bloodthirsty Islamist terrorists and aided by an entire army of Muslim soldiers, and yet it was Israel that was criticized for daring to have the courage and morality of rescuing the innocent hostages who were the ones being condemned.
Fast forward 50 years, and absolutely nothing has changed. The Islamists are still the ones killing and kidnapping. The Israelis are still the ones having to stand alone rescuing their people from the terrorists. And the United Nations are still the ones supporting and protecting the terrorists and condemning and vilifying Israel.
There is nothing new in 2026 except for one thing… today we fight side by side for the first time together with the United States under Donald Trump, and boy do we kick ass when we stand united.
So the next time the media tries to tell you that we’re the bad guys for fighting to save and protect our people, remember this story.
Am Israel Chai, and G-D Bless The United States of America.

You can now watch and follow Israel's leading right-wing TV station, Channel 14, right here on X.
Great reporting on the war with Iran and analysis with English subtitles.

IRAN IN CHAOS: PRESIDENT WANTS OUT "There’s a real upheaval in Iran... President Pezeshkian is considering resigning from his post." Channel 14's Senior Iran Analyst @DBalazada explains what inside sources tell him is happening today inside the government: Pezeshkian is reportedly "exceptionally angry" at the Revolutionary Guards, accusing them of "reckless" conduct. He claims the failure to protect Ali Larijani was not negligence, but a deliberate move to ensure his elimination. The IRGC is reportedly "very pleased" with Larijani’s death, having already prepared an "elimination dossier" on him and his brother. The bottom line - Iran is transitioning into an extremist military regime where Mojtaba Khamenei acts as a mere "puppet" of the Revolutionary Guards, who completely control the country.

This is a great video summary of what @Chabad stands for, and a powerful response to Tucker, Candace, and all the haters out there.
We are Chabad.

I left Israel last night on a rescue flight full of Americans.
I originally went to the Middle East because there was a South Carolina family who was stranded. And because when your people are stranded in a war zone getting hit with missiles and rockets, the only answer worthy of the office - worthy of our country - is to get them out.
I have not slept. Not eaten much. And seen things. I am grateful for every exhausting moment of it.
There are those who govern from a distance - who weigh the optics or wait for the situation to resolve itself - and then there are those who get on a plane.
I am the person who has always gotten on the plane.
The family I traveled here for are safely home. But then I learned about more families. Hundreds of families. Thousands. Still stranded. Whom Grey Bull Rescue and others are helping.
Grey Bull has been evacuating Americans. This was their 808th mission. They got out 155 Americans yesterday, families with infants and students. They had the people but didn’t have the plane. I jumped in to get the plane (Thank you State Dept, Embassy Jordan, Israel and Greece).
Seeing this conflict firsthand reminds you of what's at stake when the world becomes dangerous and leadership becomes a question of character, not convenience.
Tonight I am grateful. And I will never forget what I saw. What I learned. And the Americans who volunteered to help their fellow Americans, and those who are serving our nation patriotically tonight and always.

@DovLipman @yadlolim Does this apply just for Israelis/olim? Or does it also apply to tourists?

The best answer to Tucker is for everyone to attend services at their local Chabad houses and donate to @Chabad immediately!

היום רוני אשל הייתה אמורה לחגוג את יום הולדתה ה-22.
רוני הייתה תצפיתנית בנחל עוז ובאותו בוקר ארור הייתה במשמרת בחמ"ל והייתה מהראשונות שזיהו את כניסת המחבלים, היא תיפקדה בקור רוח והקפיצה כוחות במקצועיות.
רוני נפלה שם באותו יום כשמחבלי הנוח'בה פשטו על המוצב, והיא רק בת 19.
נזכור אותה תמיד, גיבורה🇮🇱🕯
יהי זכרה ברוך.
שנהיה ראויים.

היום התצפיתנית שחף ניסני ז"ל הייתה אמורה לחגוג יום הולדת 23.
היא נולדה בתאריך הכל כך מיוחד 03.03.03. שחף הייתה הותיקה בתצפיתניות ששירתו בבסיס נחל עוז, והשבת של השביעי באוקטובר הייתה למעשה השבת האחרונה שלה בצה"ל כשאחריה הייתה אמורה להשתחרר. בערב לפני כן עוד הספיקו לערוך לה מסיבה, בלי לדעת שכמה שעות לאחר מכן השמחה והצחוקים יגמרו בטבח קשה של מחבלי הנוחבה במוצב.
שחף נפלה במיגונית בנחל עוז, כשהיא בת 20.
נזכור אותה תמיד, גיבורה ומלאכית עם תלתלים וחיוך ענק🇮🇱🕯
שנהיה ראויים.

This is like celebrating Juneteenth by holding a series of workshops for blackface minstrels who want to improve their performances.
International Women’s Day is for WOMEN.

Wow. Emunah and bravery. Am Yisrael Chai
Rawan Osman روان عثمان@RawaneOsmane
On Friday, I flew into Israel with my 17-year-old son—likely on one of the last flights before the airspace closed. At security, sweet Israelis tried to warn me about the balagan that was about to begin. “I know,” I said. “Yihye tov.” They smiled and answered: “Yihye tov.” My son almost freaked out. So I asked him: If we had the chance to witness the fall of the Berlin Wall, would we stay away? This time, I couldn’t argue the way I do in synagogues. I couldn’t tell him that Emunah precedes logic. But the truth is, Emunah (faith) has been my compass since October 7. With absolute certainty—not a shred of doubt—I have said it hundreds of times, even before skeptical crowds in Israel and around the world: Israel will prevail. The so-called “Axis of Resistance” committed suicide on October 7. They are already smoke—they just don’t know it yet. And with that same certainty, I say: the fantasy called “Palestine” will not survive this war. Do I bet my money on it? I am here. In Israel. With my only son. Not theorizing from Europe. May my fate be that of Israel. Our lives are not more precious than yours. I grew up in Lebanon. For eighteen years, I lived through war. We didn’t have a shelter. My mother was convinced we were “safe” in the pantry, where I slept on a mattress behind the washing machine, head to toe with my sister. Every time a missile struck nearby, she would wet herself in her sleep. We would wake in the middle of the night, washing her with cold water as explosions echoed outside. So when I am accused of being indifferent to the suffering of children in Gaza, my blood boils—especially when lectured by those who have never experienced war. War is ugly and sometimes inevitable. Diplomacy does not soften the hearts of genocidal leaders. I hope the West finally understands. I don’t even know how many wars we survived. And yet, we are alive. Because our time was not up. In Arabic, there is a saying: ‘ala barakat Allah’ — by God’s grace. Does this war with Iran scare me? Not even a little. But how do I explain that to my son? To someone I raised without faith? To people who don’t know me? How do you explain certainty without Emunah? I believe in God. In good. In miracles. I have seen the impossible happen—again and again—against all odds. Surviving wars is nothing compared to that. One of those miracles hangs around my neck. A Star of David. If Israel is not one of the most astonishing miracles in human history, I don’t know what is. After two thousand years of exile—pushed east and west, north and south—after repeated attempts to erase them from history; enslaved, expelled, tortured, forcibly converted; after Kishinev, after Hebron, after the Holocaust… For Israel to rise in spite of that history is nothing short of extraordinary. #Israel #amisraelchai

I didn’t have my grandson having his Bris during a siren in a shul that is also a Mamad, on my bingo card for Erev Purim this year. But he was given the name Mordechai and he is going to do big things for the Jewish people.
