With Pesach fast approaching, Israel’s Agriculture and Finance Ministries have announced an increase in the egg import quota to ensure there’s no shortage during Pesach preparations. The new quota is now set at 105 million eggs, with 40 million already imported, ensuring that residents will have ample supply for all their Yom Tov needs. As in previous years, quotas are adjusted in the months leading up to Pesach to accommodate the surge in demand, which typically peaks between January and April. However, this year’s decision to expand the quota even further comes as egg production has been hit hard by multiple factors, including the ongoing war with Hamas, extreme weather conditions, and outbreaks of bird flu.

The U.S. Department of Justice has revealed the formation of Joint Task Force October 7 (JTF 10-7), a new initiative aimed at ensuring justice for the victims of the October 7, 2023, terrorist attack in Israel and addressing the persistent threat posed by Hamas and its affiliates.
“Those brutal Hamas terrorists will not prevail—and there will be repercussions,” declared Attorney General Pamela Bondi. “In my role as Attorney General, I have had the profound privilege of meeting with families of U.S. citizens whose loved ones were taken by Hamas during that tragic day. This task force will bolster the Department’s determination to secure justice for these families and their loved ones, while we continue combating antisemitism in all its forms.”

Most of us have spent time in the emergency room or hospital with a loved one. As the hours tick by, we go to the hospital’s Kosher Hospitality Room to grab a hot drink, a sandwich, nosh, or something to read. We are very thankful that one of our haimishe organizations provides this vital service for our community. Perhaps we even bless the generous gvir that donated the money for the food that is giving us the strength to go on. But did you know that the one funding all of those necessities is actually a young man with special needs? Meir Efraim Turner is a wheelchair bound young man born with Cerebral Palsy who can barely speak, yet his heart burns with desire to help his fellow Jews.

On Monday, President Trump canceled the Secret Service protection for Hunter and Ashley Biden after the former first son was seen on a lavish vacation in South Africa while he was scheduled for a court deposition. Hunter was accompanied by more than a dozen agents during his getaway.
“Hunter Biden has had Secret Service protection for an extended period of time, all paid for by the United States Taxpayer,” Trump shared on Truth Social. “There are as many as 18 people on this Detail, which is ridiculous!”
Trump further commented, “He is currently vacationing in, of all places, South Africa, where the Human Rights of people has been strenuously questioned. Because of this, South Africa has been taken off our list of Countries receiving Economic and Financial Assistance.”

A well-choreographed combination of protests, news stories, and “legacy” polls, all of which will make it appear that Donald Trump’s actions and policies are already becoming unpopular. All “coinciding” with the first Congressional break since Trump was sworn in.
There will be well organized “invasions” of GOP congressional town hall meetings, pointed articles from the press about “the sudden collapse of the economy” and well-coordinated and staged events targeting Elon Musk.
