[Yair Rosenberg @Yair_Rosenberg]

Watching sports radio hilariously yet knowledgeably reckon with how observant Jews might (or might not) watch the Knicks on Shabbat is an antidote to the angst and negativity that accompanies everything Jewish on here. Great work by @EvanRobertsWFAN.

[La Giornata Tipo @parallelecinico]

La prima foto è del 2026, precisamente di due giorni fa.
La seconda è del 1997, ventinove anni fa.
Nella prima c’è Gregg Popovich che parla e Tim Duncan che ascolta.
Nella seconda la stessa cosa.
Tra una foto e l’altra sono trascorsi 29 anni, i due hanno riscritto la storia del basket, hanno vinto e infranto record, sono diventati uno dei migliori coach e uno dei migliori giocatori nella storia del basket.

Nel mezzo, però, Gregg Popovich ha avuto problemi di salute che lo hanno costretto ad abbandonare il basket. Ma nonostante i problemi a deambulare, a parlare e di vista, continua oggi a stare vicino alla sua squadra, gli Spurs, seguendo gli allenamenti e parlando di tanto in tanto anche negli spogliatoi.
Ad accompagnarlo ovunque, ad aiutarlo a scendere dall’auto e salire le scale, a portargli la stampella, a trascorrere con lui intere giornate a parlare di basket, e a portarlo di tanto in tanto in tribuna a vedere le partite, c’è Tim Duncan.

In questi 29 anni, da quando si sono conosciuti, un ragazzo, diventato uomo, continua ad ascoltare.
Ascolta la persona che ha dichiarato di avergli cambiato la vita, di averlo reso un giocatore migliore e soprattutto una persona migliore.

Il rapporto tra Popovich e Duncan è una storia che travalica i confini dello sport perché contiene tutto: stima, amicizia, rispetto, riconoscenza, gratitudine.

È una storia semplicemente meravigliosa.

Following considerable research, I discovered that Rav Yisroel Salanter spent the latter part of his two-year Paris sojourn in the 1880s residing at this hotel.

Remarkably, it still bears the same name.

I walked through it recently, and the interior doesn’t seem to have changed all that much either.

@ChaskelBennett @NYMag If only NY Magazine had the same extremly high journalistic standards that Dovi @safier has. If only their articles would be as 10% enlightening for their readers as Safier's articles are. Instead, one loses some braincells after reading this new low of a journalistic piece.

[Chaskel Bennett @ChaskelBennett]

So this is what NY Magazine calls journalism?

A brilliant Orthodox Jewish historian, from a prestigious family becomes a target not for corruption, scandal, or misconduct, but for the apparent offense of being a yarmulke-wearing, unapologetically pro-Israel intellectual with influence and a close relationship with Senator Fetterman.

Spare us the sanctimony. This reads less like journalism and more like ideological enforcement wrapped in glossy prose.

The script is painfully familiar: identify the religious Jew who refuses to chant the approved slogans, magnify his associations, imply something sinister, and let insinuation do the work facts cannot.

And the timing is hard to ignore. Senator Fetterman has faced well reported staff turmoil and departures, with reports indicating frustration among some aides over his strong support for Israel and refusal to follow prevailing progressive orthodoxy on the issue.
Who do you think fed this warped woke drivel to this activist masquerading as a journalist.

Apparently, modern political tolerance stretches endlessly across every fashionable cause and identity, but still finds itself deeply unsettled by a religious Jew who wears a yarmulke, supports Israel without apology, and refuses to fit the ideological alphabet soup of the moment.

Good journalism investigates wrongdoing. This screams at the manufactured sin of deviation from leftist political doctrine. How hollow and ugly.

Readers know the difference between substance and assassination. And increasingly, they and we are tired of media outlets confusing ideological policing with actual reporting. Wrap the fish up. This hit job stinks to high heaven.

[Rabbi Poupko @RabbiPoupko]

I have seen many gross and grotesque media hit pieces. This @NYMag bottom feeding, gutter journalism piece on @safier and @SenFettermanPA is one of the lowest ones. What is the big deal?

That John fetterman has a Jewish friend/advisor???

[The Kobeissi Letter @KobeissiLetter]

This is absolutely insane.

President Trump is currently flying to China with all of the following people to request "deals" with China's President Xi:

1. Elon Musk, Tesla and SpaceX CEO
2. Jensen Huang, Nvidia CEO
3. Tim Cook, Apple CEO
4. Larry Fink, BlackRock CEO
5. Stephen Schwarzman, Blackstone CEO
6. Kelly Ortberg, Boeing CEO
7. Brian Sikes, Cargill CEO
8. Jane Fraser, Citigroup CEO
9. Larry Culp, General Electric CEO
10. David Solomon, Goldman Sachs CEO
11. Sanjay Mehrotra, Micron CEO
12. Cristiano Amon, Qualcomm CEO

President Trump also says there are "many other" CEOs joining him on the trip who have not yet been disclosed.

Never in history has such a trip even remotely near this scale and caliber occurred.

This Trump-Xi meeting is far bigger than most realize.
