In Ger the Chassan throws the Veil on the Kallah While Shloimie Wedyger is "Shoimer Ha'Nashim"
Gerer Motorcade to the Chassuna
I really had a good laugh ....just yesterday I was in Yerushalyim and I happened to drive by Prime Minister's Bennett's house when suddenly police stopped all traffic because the PM was leaving his residence... there were only three cars, one in front, him in the middle and one in back, no sirens no nothing ...oh sorry, yes there was one thing they did have, blinking lights but only the front car....
In Israel, the Gerer Rebbe travels in one car, I know, I saw him arriving at the Kotel once, the "mishtara" will have none of this nonsense, and if they tried this in Israel, they would get a hefty fine that would go straight to the Zionist coffers ..
Now watch the Shkverer Arrive
Viznitz Monsey First Heimishe Chassidus to Allow Internet into their Neighborhood
The Vizniters known for being "Chachamim from the Ma Nishtana" allowed Ger ($$$$$$$) to bring a live hookup into their hall in Monsey so that the Israeli Gerer Chassidim in Israel would be able to watch the wedding live.
In order to hide this atrocity from their residents in Monsey they asked the technicians to stick their equipment in the Ezras Nashim, hoping no one would notice.
When the word went out on the streets of Viznitz that someone brought the "Avee Avos Ha'tumah" into their holy neighborhood they started screaming "gevald" and so Viznitz was forced to issue a "Kol Korah" that states that this is a one time allowance.

At a Tuesday press conference in Kabul, the Taliban called out Facebook for censorship.
Taliban spokesman Zabihullah Mujahid was asked if his government would honor free speech and responded by pointing a finger at Facebook.
“This question should be asked to those people who are claiming to be promoters of freedom of speech who do not allow publication of all information. I could ask Facebook company. This question should be asked to them," he said.
The response was retweeted by Former US President Trump's son Donald Trump Jr., who commented that, on this issue, the Taliban spokesman was "not wrong."
Obsessed with Trump..... Cy Vance goes after pardoned man
Is there anything more politicized than the criminal justice system in an administration run by Democrats?
Yes . . . a criminal justice system run by elected Democrats in a blue-dyed stronghold, such as New York City, ensnared by one-party politics.
That is not mere politicization of the justice system. It is weaponization of the justice system against political enemies. Ken Kurson is the latest Trump World habitue to learn that the hard way.
Kurson, the former editor of The New York Observer, is a close friend of former President Trump’s son-in-law and White House adviser Jared Kushner, as well as a one-time speechwriter for Trump’s personal lawyer, Rudy Giuliani. He is also a jackass — or, at the very least, conducted himself like one several years ago when his marriage was disintegrating.
Kurson’s obnoxious behavior, which involved harassing people involved in his personal drama, came to the attention of the FBI only because Trump nominated him to sit on the board of the National Endowment for the Humanities. By normal prosecution standards, it was ancient history, having occurred in 2015, and dubious grist for criminal charges.
Federal prosecutors in Brooklyn nevertheless filed a criminal complaint weeks before the 2020 election. The “cyberstalking” case never reached the indictment stage because Trump pardoned Kurson before leaving office, reasoning that there would have been no criminal case but for the political connection.
As if to prove the former president’s point, Manhattan District Attorney Cy Vance swung into action. The federal investigation had uncovered evidence that Kurson had used a computer program to spy on his then wife, whom he suspected of having an affair. Vance has charged Kurson with felony electronic eavesdropping.
At a time when violent crime is surging and the district attorney has declined to prosecute a raft of cases arising out of last summer’s deadly rioting and looting, there is no enforcement justification for devoting resources to a six-year-old non-violent domestic-relations matter.
Kurson’s own ex-wife doesn’t want this pursued. In his pardon application, she wrote that she “repeatedly asked for the FBI to drop it . . . I hired a lawyer to protect me from being forced into yet another round of questioning. My disgust with this arrest and the subsequent articles is bottomless.”
This is sheer political retribution.
What’s stunning is how unabashed Vance is about that. Announcing the charges, he brayed, “We will not accept presidential pardons as get-out-of-jail-free cards for the well-connected in New York.” Kurson is not being punished for the alleged crimes; he’s being punished for being a Trump crony who got a pardon.
It is not the first time. Vance earlier indicted former Trump campaign chairman Paul Manafort after Trump pardoned him for convictions arising out of the Mueller investigation. It was a blatant violation of New York’s double-jeopardy protections, and the state courts threw it out.
Vance, meanwhile, has spent years and resources — including two trips to the Supreme Court — trying to nail Trump himself on what he hoped were frauds burrowed in the former president’s financial records. After finally getting access to the records, he still has no case. Did he drop it? Of course not: he is now squeezing the Trump organization’s chief financial officer — charging him with bookkeeping improprieties that, in any other instance, would be settled in civil litigation. But it’s Trump, so New York Democrats must treat it as the crime of the century.
In New York, unlike in the federal government, top prosecutor posts are elected rather than appointed positions. That’s why state attorney general Letitia James, a progressive darling, campaigned on a promise to spare no effort to sue or prosecute Trump. The system lends itself to abuse.
There is a term for the exploitation of government police power to crush political foes: banana republic.

Shmuel (Shmuli) Silverberg 19 Murdered In front of His Yeshiva in Denver
A Yeshiva Bochur was shot and killed in front of the Denver Yeshiva
Police say the horrific incident unfolded early Wednesday morning, in front of Yeshiva Toras Chaim, located at 1555 Stuart Street in Denver.
Sources say that a vehicle drove up and opened fire. The vehicle immediately fled the area. The boy was rushed to a local hospital where he was Niftar.
The victim has been identified as HaBochur Shmuel (Shmuli) Silverberg Z”L (son of Reb Mordechai) from Cleveland. He was 19 years old.
Police do not believe the victim was deliberately targeted or that the assailant had targeted the yeshiva, as there have been several other similar shootings in the area which did not target Jewish people or institutions.
Misaskim was notified in middle of the night, and was working with the authorities and the family.
The Levaya and Kevura will be held in Lakewood, NJ. Time and location will be published when that becomes available.
The Denver Police Department is searching for three vehicles connected to the shooting which Detectives say was a deadly crime spree.
The crime spree started near Colfax Ave. and Grape St. at 10:50 p.m. with a car jacking. No injuries were reported.
Next, a shooting and car jacking took place in the 1500 block of Lafayette St around 11 p.m. One person was critically injured.
The crime spree ended with the fatal shooting of the Yeshiva Bochur at 11:30PM.
Police are looking for three vehicles connected to the crime spree.
- 2018 maroon Honda CRV, Colorado License Plate: CGOW44
- 2020 dark blue Toyota Camry, Colorado License Plate: AGNZ29
- 1998 black Toyota Rav 4, Colorado License Plate: QFO701
The suspects are considered armed and dangerous. If you see the vehicles, call 911. You can also remain anonymous by contacting Metro Denver Crime Stoppers at 720-913-7867.
Taliban parade two men through streets with blackened faces and nooses around necks
Sickening images show two men being paraded through an Afghanistan street with their faces tarred black — and being pulled by nooses around their necks.
“Taliban accused these men of theft, their faces were colored with black color — to embarrass them,” tweeted Bilal Sarwary, one of Afghanistan’s leading journalists, who said he was sent the images late last week.
The photos show the unidentified pair surrounded by a mob of heavily armed men, many punching the air in apparent celebration as others hold assault rifles aloft.
The men’s faces were both completely blackened, seemingly with a tar-like substance, and both had nooses tight around the neck, which was pulled by at least one in the mob, the images show.
“This was after the Friday prayers inside Herat city,” Sarwary also tweeted, with a video of the parade showing dozens of supposed Taliban supporters marching alongside the accused thieves.
“Taliban style Justice often means hands of thieves are chopped off,” the journalist noted.
“This is medieval and barbaric,” wrote one of Sarwary’s followers. “I cannot believe this is happening now and I weep with sadness and with shame.”
The sickening sight came as Herat, a city of about 600,000 people near the border with Iran, was left like a “ghost town,” provincial council member Ghulam Habib Hashimi told Reuters. “Families have either left or are hiding in their homes.”
The parade appeared further proof that the Taliban were already returning to the extreme version of Islamic Sharia law that the US invasion previously appeared to have crushed.
The Taliban notoriously imposed strict punishments under their initial rule, including stoning suspected adulterers and carrying out public executions.
Many of the harshest restrictions were against women, many of whom were raped and forced into arranged marriages, as well as being forbidden from jobs or schooling and forced to be subservient to men.
After the US invasion, women finally started finding freedom — something seemingly already being erased by the Taliban as reports emerge of them ejecting women from their workplaces and forcing girls as young as 12 to marry militants.
As the insurgents took control of the presidential palace in Kabul early Sunday, a photo circulated on social media showing someone painting over posters depicting women.
“This is a new dark era for women,” tweeted activist and former beauty queen Sarah Idan, who shared the images and blamed “radical Islamist misogynists Taliban.”
Rabbi Who Could See into the Future Didn't See this Coming
Rabbi Ezra Sheinberg, convicted of sexual offenses against eight women, was released early from prison on Tuesday, serving just six years of his seven year sentence.
The rabbi, a renowned yeshiva head from Safed, was originally indicted in July 2015 on 12 charges of sexual offenses including rape, sodomy and indecent assault.
Religious Zionist head Betzalel Smotrich expressed outrage at the decision to release Sheinberg early, saying the decision is "shameful and constitutes a stab in the back of the victims."
"The punishment was too light in the first place and the early release is adding sin to crime," said Smotrich, calling for the decision to be appealed.
Sheinberg, 48, who is married and has eight children, is the founder of Yeshivat Orot HaAri in Safed, which he established in 1999. He was a respected and prominent figure in the National Religious community and lauded as a particularly spiritual rabbi with preternatural abilities to see into the future and give advice.
