🚨 Here is the full 42 minutes of my crew and I exposing Minnesota fraud, this might be my most important work yet. We uncovered over $110,000,000 in ONE day. Like it and share it around like wildfire! Its time to hold these corrupt politicians and fraudsters accountable

We ALL work way too hard and pay too much in taxes for this to be happening, the fraud must be stopped.

Some beautiful words of reflection on the eve of Yom Kippur, the holiest day of the Hebrew year. 

May we be sealed in the Book of Life, with hope and strength to carry us forward. 

Challenge is Not the Opposite of Blessing, It's Often the Beginning of It
by Rabbi Mendel Mintz

There’s a pattern in Judaism/Torah. 
A pattern we don’t always want but we always need.

When G-d wanted to make David a king… He didn’t give him a crown. He gave him Goliath.

When He wanted to make Joseph a leader… He didn’t give him a palace. He sent him to prison.

When G-d wanted to elevate Moses - he didn’t give him a stage, he gave him decades in the wilderness.

When G-d wanted to make Esther a queen, (in the Purim story), he gave her a crisis and Haman.

Time and again, we see: 
G-d doesn’t elevate people through ease, rather through struggle.

Because it’s not despite the challenge that we rise. 
It’s through it.

That’s how the human spirit is made and rises higher. 

We don’t know what the new year will bring. But we do know this: 
We were not born for comfort. 
We were born for meaning.

We weren’t placed in this world to hide from its problems — we were created to illuminate and solve them.

And if, this year, you find yourself walking through a wilderness… or standing before your own personal or professional Goliath… Remember: that’s not a detour from your destiny. That is your calling.

May this be the year G-d transforms our struggles into strength…

May this year bring peace and healing to all.

L’shana Tova — may it be a good and sweet new year.

Now that we’re out, I can speak freely about some of the things I’ve learned having accidentally found myself in a war zone, hunkering down with Israelis and other tourists in Tel Aviv shelters:

- I appear to have underestimated the power of trauma bonding

- Israelis’ insistence of living as normal of a life as possible under the most abnormal conditions is truly something to be in awe of

- there’s this thing you can do where you enter a liminal space of half-sleep so you straddle the awake world and the sleep world so you never miss a siren

- your high cortisol + adrenaline levels become a new baseline and your awareness of it fades away

- every barrage is a game of Russian roulette. Knowing your life is at the mercy of both technology and fate permanently changes the chemistry of your brain cells

- there is something truly clarifying about being in a shelter while hypersonic missiles dance overhead. You look at the person you’re in the shelter with - is this the one I want to share the terror of imminent extinction with? Have I lived well? Did I treat my family and friends right? Have I forgiven?

- while I was afraid on several occasions, I still consider it the privilege of a lifetime to witness history in the making

- the frisson of real danger cannot be replicated in our safe, prosperous societies back home. It is invigorating and forces one to jettison all utopian and luxury beliefs

- it’s inspiring to see young people exhibit qualities that in the West hasn’t been seen since WWII - resilience, duty and sacrifice

- the delta between what was going on in the kinetic war and the information war was observable; too many lies were spread in the fog of war which were far too easily believed (some big account confidently asserted that 1/3 of Tel Aviv was destroyed, which I could see with my own eyes was clearly not the case)

- there is a lot more diversity of opinion inside Israel than is apparent from the outside

- the shared, bedrock consensus that has been hammered into the consciousness of Jews because of their deep history and sense of self is a great strength the West sorely needs to emulate

@RepJerryNadler What an unbelievably ignorant, baseless, and dangerous message. Shame on you.

@ChefGruel Hello team, I own a supplement company. We have thousands of vitamin and mineral powder packets, can be crucial for keeping people healthy during these times. We already donated hundreds of electrolyte packets to a fire department station near palisades. Can drop off anywhere.

@Anc_Aesthetics Best line of his presidency "you can't love your country only when you win". Let's see if dems actually will be supportive this time.
