Lakewood Bais Yaakov Shuts Down Effectively Immediately Due to Lack of Funds
DIN: I really hope I'm wrong but this is the first domino to fall!
This Kollel culture is not sustainable and the system is collapsing! In Israel I know of at least 8 yeshivas ready to close and they get government funds!
Tuition should come before supporting Kollilim!
Bnos Penina Girls School, a well-known girls’ school in Lakewood, announced that it has suspended all classes indefinitely due to a severe shortfall in tuition payments.
The school informed parents and families that the decision was made only after exhausting all available options to cover expenses, including reaching out for community support and financial assistance. Administrators said the gap between operating costs and collected tuition has reached a point where the school can no longer maintain normal educational operations.
School administrators did not specify the exact dollar amount of the deficit, but described it as “significant” and beyond what the school’s budget can absorb. They said that late and missing payments from a large number of families over recent months created a financial strain that ultimately forced the decision to halt classes. They added that the Rabbonim in Lakewood were consulted, and ultimately this was the decision of Daas Torah.
The suspension of classes affects students of all grades, and parents have expressed concern and frustration over the sudden disruption to their daughters’ education. Some families posted on community forums asking for updates and urging positive solutions, while others emphasized the need for broader community support to help stabilize the school’s finances.
School administrators said they are actively exploring ways to resume classes, including reaching out to donors, community organizations, and supporters in and beyond Lakewood. They stressed that decisions about reopening and next steps will be based on securing enough funding to ensure the school can operate responsibly and meet its obligations to staff and families.

Naive Ex Satmar Frieda Vizel cannot Understand why the Polish people hate her guts!
Frida Vizel is a former Satmar Chasid who left the community, yet she remains deeply connected to it. She has even built a business guiding non‑Jews and non‑affiliated Jews through Williamsburg so they can see firsthand how Chasidim live. There’s nothing wrong with that in itself. But when she receives antisemitic comments on a nonbinary video—(see below)—she seems genuinely shocked, unable to understand why it happened.
This confusion stems from her Satmar upbringing, which instills the belief that they are the “authentic” Jews, while Zionists are somehow outside the Jewish people. When Satmar Hasidim speak to non‑Jews, they often try to convey this distinction. But the reality is that non‑Jews do not see these internal divisions. To them, Jews are Jews. Antisemites throughout history—including the Nazis—never differentiated between Satmar Hasidim and Zionists. Hitler didn't bother to kosher the ovens between burning Satmar Chassidim and burning Zionists!
Even though Frida left the community, she still carries many of its assumptions. As the saying goes: you can bring a horse to water, but you can’t make it drink.
I truly believe Frida is a kind and gentle person with good intentions. But that is precisely what makes her influence so concerning. She has thousands of non‑Jewish followers who respect her deeply, and she now wants to use that platform to teach them about internal Jewish divisions.
In her videos, she tends to group all “victims” together. She avoids acknowledging Jewish victims specifically, instead equating Israeli women who were raped and murdered with Arab civilians in Gaza—many of whom supported a terrorist regime that launched tens of thousands of rockets at Israel long after Israel withdrew from Gaza. She insists on feeling equally for all “victims,” which ignores the moral and historical context.
She now wants to explain to her followers that not all Jews support Israel, and that some religious Jews believe Zionism caused the Holocaust and that the State of Israel should not exist. She hopes that by doing so, non‑Jews will understand that her community “has nothing to do with Israel.” She genuinely believes this distinction will matter to them.
But she fails to grasp a simple truth: antisemites do not care about these nuances.
In her recent video (above) about her trip to Poland, she again expresses bewilderment at the antisemitic comments she received. She even says she would like to “have a dialogue” with those commenters.
This kind of naïveté is dangerous.
We have seen similar tragedies in Israel. Some of the most left‑leaning Israelis—people who truly believed in coexistence and built friendships with Gazans—were brutally murdered by those very same people on October 7. Their goodwill and their "dialogs" did not protect them.
Frida has not internalized this lesson. She does not understand—and perhaps never will—that her son, who may not look visibly Jewish, is still viewed by antisemites the same way as a Jew wearing a kippah and tzitzit. To them, a secular Israeli at a music festival and a Haredi Jew in Williamsburg are the same.
Another important point that you will only see on DIN
When Satmar or Neturei Karta tell Goyim that they believe that the Torah doesn't allow a State until Moshiach comes, they don't tell them what will happen AFTER Moshiach comes!
Both Satmar and Neturei Karta believe that when Moshiach comes all the Arabs will be driven out of Eretz Yisrael to make room for the Jews!!
Deep down they have absolutely no respect for Goyim and lie to them about Zionists!
Satmar doesn't tell Goyim that they yearn for a time when ALL Jews will return to Eretz Yisrael! That they have Eretz Yisrael in ALL their prayers!
They don't tell them that there is basically one difference between them and Zionists....... and that it is ........"timing!"
Zionists believe that we have to do hishtadlis and live there now, and Satmar prays and yearns to live in Eretz Yisrael ASAP as soon as Moshiach comes, which can even happen today!
I wonder ....Why don't they share that with them?
Transgenders are slowly killing us all!
| Dorgan seen in an undated social media photo. |
In what is becoming a regular occurrence, someone trans-identifying is accused of committing a mass murder, this time during a high school hockey game, in suburban Rhode Island.
Robert Dorgan, who preferred to be called Roberta, killed his ex-wife and one of his own children and shot three more people before turning the gun on himself.
In 2020, Dorgan had told police that he was being kicked out of his home, by his father-in-law, after Dorgan had undergone “gender-reassignment surgery.”
His wife, Rhonda Dorgan, wrote “gender reassignment surgery, narcissistic + personality disorder traits” as her grounds for divorce, but those words were crossed out and “irreconcilable differences which have caused the immediate breakdown of the marriage” was written instead.
Dorgan certainly seemed like he was going through a mental-health crisis.
In the days leading up to the slaughter, Dorgan posted on X, “keep bashing us. but do not wonder why we Go BERSERK.”
But no one was bashing him.
Rabbi Yitzchok Pindrus a Bald-Faced Liar
by Harry Maryles
I can’t help it. I should be used to the myopic, self-centered attitude of Charedi leadership and their Askanim (Charedi Knesset members). But I’m not. Whenever I read an op-ed by one of them on the subject of drafting Charedim into the IDF or their insistence on no secular education, I nearly recoil with disgust.
It happened again over Shabbos as I read a guest op-ed in Mishpacha by UTJ’s Rabbi Yitzchak Pindrus.
The scary thing is that he probably believes every word he says. In this case, that amounts to a conspiracy theory: a coalition of Israeli institutions whose goal is to destroy the Torah world. Only now, with unprecedented zeal and determination. As though the State of Israel is more anti-Torah than at any other time in its history.
When in fact, it is more than obvious that the opposite is true. There is more Torah study now in Israel than at any other time in Jewish history!
