Former hostages Noa Argamani, Omer Shem Tov, and Iair Horn visited my office today sharing their horrific stories of spending countless days in Hamas captivity in Gaza. They were kidnapped on Oct 7th and continue fighting to bring home friends and family still being held hostage.
I join with my colleagues, Congressman Anthony D'Esposito and Senator Patricia Canzonari-Fitzpatrick, in condemning Vice President Kamala Harris for caving in to the growing anti-Semitism in the Democrat party with respect to the selection of her Vice Presidential running mate.
A must-read no holds barred indictment of Councilwoman @ShahanaFromBK callous indifference and tacit approval of blatant antisemitism her constituents are experiencing. Hear from them directly in today's @NYDailyNews:
"In a city in which antisemitic hate crimes increased 170% between the end of 2022 and the end of 2023, Hanif’s attitude is a blatant dereliction of duty. To add to the harm, Hanif is given cover by fringe anti-Zionist Jewish groups, which do not represent the Jewish community, allowing her to ignore, if not condemn, the 95% of Jews who believe Israel has a right to exist."

.@CodePink radicals were on Capitol Hill today, doing the bidding of Hamas.
I let them know exactly where I stand.
Israel must eradicate Hamas from this planet.
HALLER went from Powell's Kraken team to representing Jan. 6 defendants — including Oath Keeper Kelly Meggs — before jumping to Trump-aligned America First Legal Foundation started by Stephen Miller.

Proud to call Ari Brown @AssemblymanAriB my friend. Ari is an Orthodox Jew, and is someone who always stands up for those in need and is a strong advocate against discrimination and antisemitism. Here he talks about his decision to give a kidney to a complete stranger. https://t.co/GlLcOYrT3P
Today Israel lost a true hero my nephew Lt Commander Eli Ginsberg — a SEAL & special forces leader who was killed rescuing hostages at Kibbutz Re’im. His father , my brother, gave his life for Israel in 2006, & now his son. Am Yisrael Hai.
The US has no better friend than Israel, & I’m grateful @AIPAC for nurturing our special relationship.
Great to be w/friends in the #FiveTowns@AIPAC “Dinner & Conversation.” Discussed ways to strengthen America’s ties w/Middle East’s lone democracy, & fight anti-Semitism. 🇮🇱 🇺🇸
I’ll help…
1. Yeshivas proudly teach right from wrong.
2. Their students have very high attendance rates.
3. Many students continue their education.
4. Yeshiva graduates live law-abiding lives almost entirely.
Looking forward to you including that in your hit piece!
