Once again, we have seen that we are living in historic times. Very rare occurrences are transpiring on a regular basis, dramatically impacting our lives, the world in general, and history. Each event strikes fear into the hearts of men, women, and children as they change the trajectory of modern life.
More so, each event demonstrates to man that he is not in charge of what happens anywhere and anytime, as the only explanation for their occurrence is the Yad Hashem. We can go back to the period of the Covid pandemic, but we don’t have to go that far back. We can examine things that took place within the past year.

The United States is currently facing something it has never previously faced. Its presidential elections are several months away, and its president, who is also his party’s candidate for president, is senile. No, he didn’t just now become senile. He has been slipping for several years, likely even prior to his election to his current term. The more astute citizens were able to perceive that Joe Biden, the candidate in 2020 and president since 2021, is not operating at full capacity.

It was a beautiful Shabbos morning in Camp Romimu where I spent my summers as a division head. The grass was glistening in the sunlit sky after an overnight thunderstorm. There was barely a sound besides a few chirping birds as I made my way to the dining room for a pre-shacharis coffee.

In April 2023, President Biden felt comfortable enough about his age to tell a joke about it at the White House Correspondents’ Association dinner. It came at the expense of a certain media outlet. “Look, I get that age is a completely reasonable issue. It’s on everybody’s mind. And by ‘everyone,’ I mean the New York Times.”
The quip was funny because of printed matter: The Times had turned out story after story after story about the president’s age and fitness for office – so much material, in fact, that it helped stir a feud between the newspaper and White House.

Dear Editor@Matzav.com,
I am writing to express a concern that has been troubling me deeply. In some portions of the frum community, there is ostensibly concern about avoiding “hisgarus ba’umos” (provocation of the nations) concerning the growth and actions in Eretz Yisroel. However, I find it perplexing and disheartening that the same level of concern does not seem to be applied to Yidden‘s conduct here in places like Boro Park, Williamsburg, and elsewhere.

To those who follow the news and have been following politics since the 2020 election, President Biden’s performance at last week’s debate came as no surprise. The confused man who wasn’t able to formulate coherent thoughts and seemed lost at times is the same man who was plucked from his fifth place finish in the New Hampshire Democrat primary and declared the official party candidate for president. He barely campaigned or left his Delaware home. While his campaign attributed the basement strategy to Covid, many suspected that the people who selected him as their candidate feared that if voters would be exposed to Joe Biden, they wouldn’t be able to vote for him. The gambit worked and Biden was sworn into office on Jan. 20, 2021.

There are times that are described as historic, but aren’t. There are times when, in hindsight, it becomes apparent that they were historic turning points. And then there are times such as ours, when it is obvious to all that they are historic. We are living through historic times on so many levels and in so many areas that it is hard to keep track.
We see the world changing before our eyes, but we don’t know where the changes will lead and how they will affect us.
