The Vizhnitzer Rebbe, who visited the US last week, spoke out against the “general” Chassidish yeshivos who expel bochurim who get engaged at the age of 18. Speaking at a gathering together with his cousin, the Vizhnitzer Rebbe of Monsey, the Rebbe expressed his pain on the matter. “In past generations, they married at a very young age. Nowadays not as much but nevertheless, I have grievances against several yeshivos that forbid their talmidim from getting married during Shiur Beis even if the bochur is already 18, and they only allow them to get engaged after Shavuos of Shiur Beis. This is the minhag in several yeshivos, even in ones that operate according to Chassidish minhagim.” “In my view, this is incorrect.

The U.S. Supreme Court on Tuesday officially rejected a Trump bid to block the House Oversight Committee from obtaining his tax returns from the IRS, prompting a furious response from the ex-president. “Why would anybody be surprised that the Supreme Court has ruled against me, they always do!” Trump wrote on Truth Social. “It is unprecedented to be handing over Tax Returns, & it creates terrible precedent for future Presidents. Has Joe Biden paid taxes on all of the money he made illegally from Hunter & beyond. The Supreme Court has lost its honor, prestige, and standing, & has become nothing more than a political body, with our Country paying the price. They refused to even look at the Election Hoax of 2020.

The An Echad Jewish cemetery in Waukegan, Illinois, a suburb of Chicago, was vandalized with antisemitic graffiti this week. According to local media reports, 16 headstones were spraypainted with swastikas, and another 23 were defaced, including one that had “Kanye Was Rite” sprayed onto it. “We have no words for this depravity and evil,” StopAntisemitism.org said in a statement. “The desecration of graves is as low as it gets, and by the way, it’s also as cowardly as it gets,” the ADL’s Daniel Goldenberg said.

What happened was supposed to be great victories all over the country,” Hikind told Fox News’ Steve Doocy. “I would say to the former president, who I supported and he did great things during his term, I would say to him, move on. A couple of days before the election, he tells the country he has a major announcement. Donald Trump, it was not about you. It was about the candidates that were running and you took away from them,” said Hikind.

Candace Owens, an employee of Orthodox Jewish conservative commentator Ben Shapiro’s Daily Wire, told her audience that they should read Adolf Hitler’s infamous book, Mein Kampf, and complained about backlash that Brooklyn Nets star Kyrie Irving got for posting a link to an antisemitic movie. Owens, who was hired by Shapiro in 2020, had previously defended anti-Semitic rapper Kanye West after he went on multiple rants against Jews and promoted multiple anti-Semitic conspiracy theories and tropes.

Marc Thiessen, a conservative pundit for Fox News, blasted Republicans for their underwhelming performances in Tuesday’s midterm election contests. Anchor Bret Baier asked Thiessen if he thinks that the Pennsylvania Senate race would have resulted in a win by Republican Mehmet Oz rather than Democrat John Fetterman if the candidates’ debate had taken place in September rather than October 25th, when votes were already being cast. “I think it might have or maybe it wouldn’t have,” Thiessen replied. “There’s a broader issue, which is, think about this.
