This morning I got to go to their house and, by chance, their daughter, who was born while my family was there in hiding, was there. She welcomed me in, showed me around the house and the room where the bunker had been built and shared her family's scrapbook of photos and letters.

With the help of the Krakow JCC and an incredible guide I was able to visit my grandparents' village of Nowy Korczyn, Poland, today. My great grandparents and great aunts were hidden underground for 2.5 years by the Macugowski family.

Fun fact: the Rabbis removed the Ten Commandments out of our core liturgy (Shema &tc) bc the Jewish Christians were SOOPER into it & the Rabbis wanted to be clear that the 10 weren’t superior to the other 603 mitzvot in Torah. So we’re clear that this 👇 is Christian supremacy. & a 1A violation.

There's video of the truck used by the IDF in its hostage rescue. It has the logo of Pril, not the Red Cross or any protected symbol. So no, the IDF did not use an aid truck. Francesca Albanese was wrong and should take responsibility for her error and resign. nitter.poast.org/NuritBaytch/...

With this being his last week hosting Wheel, it strikes me as a good time to say FUCK PAT SAJAK He's the chairman of Hillsdale College board. Hillsdale is a school who does things like the below linked story. And its a feature to them, not a bug, as they purposely avoid having to follow Title IX

This is a good time to remember that if we valued women—AT ALL—we wouldn't have allowed Trump to get within shouting distance of the Oval in the first place. Imagine a world in which being a serial sexual predator made one persona non grata in business, entertainment, and/or politics. Imagine.

One former student (a senior in high school) asked me if I'm anti-Israel because I posted about being compelled by Judaism to mourn for the loss of life in Rafah and oh man did I lay into him But still, that he even thought it a reasonable conclusion...

1/9 One reason for antisemitism is that Jews do things differently in ways that frustrate systematizers, and control cannot happen without systematizing. We're a religion, but not like any other religion.
