Pay Child Support or lose your US Passport

 The Trump administration is reportedly preparing to expand enforcement of a federal law allowing the government to revoke U.S. passports from individuals owing more than $2,500 in unpaid child support. 

According to U.S. officials cited by the AP, the U.S. Department of State will soon begin proactively revoking passports using data shared by the U.S.

Department of Health and Human Services, rather than waiting for people to apply for renewals or consular services. The policy stems from a 1996 federal law but marks a significant escalation in enforcement.

 Israel is building tiny robots inside your body.

Researchers at the Technion have developed DNA origami nanorobots, programmable microscopic machines (just 100 nanometers wide) made entirely from DNA.

These tiny “robots” navigate through the bloodstream, detect specific cancer cell markers, and then deploy a targeted toxin directly into tumors, while completely sparing healthy cells.

In recent trials on aggressive cancers, they’ve shown incredible precision and effectiveness.

This isn’t science fiction anymore. It’s Israeli innovation turning the body into its own battlefield against disease.

From the lab bench to potentially saving millions of lives worldwide.

Proud every single day. 🇮🇱

Frum Teen raped in NYC after Uber driver failed to check ID

 

The family of a 16-year-old Long Island girl who was allegedly raped in NYC by a man she met on Snapchat is holding Uber partly responsible for their daughter’s nightmare.

The Orthodox Jewish victim was taken without question to Brooklyn, where she met up with a man she met on Snapchat who sexually assaulted her in his car, and filmed it, her family claimed in a lawsuit against the ride-share company.

“As a result of this assault, my daughter was caused severe physical and emotional harm,” her mother said in court papers.

The nightmare began March 10, when the teen left her “tight-knit” upper middle class home in Nassau County and got into an Uber allegedly ordered for her by the attacker, according to court papers.

The girl’s night should have ended right then, her family contended.

Uber bars strangers from calling for rides for passengers under 18, and youngsters are not supposed to ride alone, unless they have a specific account intended for teenagers, according to the company.

“When picking up riders, if you feel they are underage, you may request they provide a driver’s license or ID card for confirmation. If a rider is underage, please do not start the trip or allow them to ride,” according to the company’s web site.

*MAJOR WIN FOR REPUBLICANS:* Virginia Supreme Court OVERTURNS redistricting referendum, strikes down Democrat gerrymandered map.

“Eff around and find out”: That taunt from Hakeem Jeffries celebrating Virginia’s gerrymander did not age well.

On Friday, the House minority leader found out that Virginia’s Supreme Court was not quite as gleeful as he about Democrats’ attempt to virtually eliminate Republican representation in the purple state. 

The court just cooked the party’s infamous lobster, a district over 100 miles long that was designed to help devour the GOP’s slender majority in the House of Representatives.

It also cooked the ambitions of Gov. Abigail Spanberger and the Democratic establishment, which tossed aside any pretense of principle in a raw political gambit.

The resulting faceplant is nothing short of legendary: Spanberger’s Democrats have succeeded in alienating half of the state. 

For the governor, the court’s decision was particularly embarrassing.

 Inside Israel’s $210 Million Mega-Mansion as Billionaire Owner Slashes Price by $50 Million Amid Luxury Market Slowdown*

A massive Caesarea estate owned by Russian-Israeli billionaire Valery Kogan is back on the market with a reported $210 million asking price, even after a huge cut from its original sticker.

The mansion has Italian marble, 14-karat gold details, nearly 10,000 square feet of spa space, two kosher kitchens, and enough luxury to make it less of a house and more of a private palace. But the real story is bigger, Israel’s luxury market is still alive, just far more selective.

Israel built and defended secret base deep in Iraqi desert to support Iran air campaign

 Israel set up a secret military base in the Iraqi desert to support its aerial campaign against Iran, the Wall Street Journal reports, citing US officials and other sources.

According to the sources, Israel built the base shortly before the war began in late February to serve as a hub for logistics to support the Israeli Air Force.

It also housed special forces troops and search-and-rescue teams, the report says.

To protect the outpost, Israeli troops even launched airstrikes against Iraqi forces who nearly discovered it in early March, the report adds.

The strikes killed one Iraqi soldier, Baghdad said at the time, after Iraqi media reported that a local shepherd witnessed “unusual military activity,” including helicopters and gunfire in a remote area. According to the Journal, the Israeli strikes succeeded in deterring Iraqi forces from further investigation.

Iraq, which initially blamed the attack on the Americans, said: “This reckless operation was carried out without coordination or approval.”

The US was not involved in the operation, sources tell the American outlet.

“It appears there was a certain force on the ground before the strike,
supported from the air, operating beyond the capabilities of our units,” a top Iraqi military official said at the time.

The report points to statements made by Israeli Air Force chief Maj. Gen. Tomer Bar in March, when he said that special forces had been conducting “extraordinary” operations during the conflict with Iran.

“The troops of the air force’s special units are currently carrying out extraordinary missions that can spark one’s imagination,” Bar said, without elaborating further.

According to an expert speaking to the Journal, the western desert of Iraq, where the reported base was located, is a perfect spot for a clandestine military outpost, given its sparse population and vast size.

“It’s normal that before operations you reconnoiter and set up these kinds of locations,” says Michael Knights, the head of the Horizon Engage intelligence firm.

The IDF declines to comment on the report.

“Nazi!”: Chareidi IDF Soldiers Attacked By Charedie Mob During Banned Lag BaOmer Celebrations In Meron

 

It seems that these R' Shimon ben Yochai celebrations in Meron are bringing the worst out of people! 

R' Shimon was a Tanna and would have been very happy if they all stayed home and learned! 

This proves that this entire event is a sham! 

All my life I couldn't understand why someone would be attracted to Avoda Zara, but watching the events that unfolded in Meron with hundreds hiking for hours with babies to get to the banned Meron Lag Be'omer site, to dance around a fire and praying to someone who died over 2,000 years ago explains it all! 

It is no wonder that the RBS"O didn't want anyone to know where Moshe Rabbeinu was buried to avoid this scene!

וַיִּקְבֹּ֨ר אֹת֤וֹ בַגַּי֙ בְּאֶ֣רֶץ מוֹאָ֔ב מ֖וּל בֵּ֣ית פְּע֑וֹר וְלֹא־יָדַ֥ע אִישׁ֙ אֶת־קְבֻ֣רָת֔וֹ עַ֖ד הַיּ֥וֹם הַזֶּֽה׃

A Chareidi soldier in IDF uniform was verbally assailed at Kever Rashbi during Lag B’Omer celebrations Monday night, as thousands of pilgrims overwhelmed authorities attempting to contain the crowds.

Video footage posted to social media showed a group of men surrounding two armed soldiers, one wearing a yarmulka and sporting payos, while shouting at them. One soldier was called a “Nazi” during the confrontation.

Despite IDF Home Front Command restrictions capping outdoor gatherings at 200 people and indoor events at 600, tens of thousands arrived at Meron for Lag BaOmer.

Clashes between attendees and law enforcement erupted throughout the night. In one instance, Chareidi men threw plastic chairs and water bottles at police officers stationed nearby.

National Security Minister Itamar Ben Gvir visited Meron and praised police for their restraint, describing their approach as “gentle” while urging the public to avoid traveling there.

Magen David Adom paramedics reported 23 injuries. One person sustained a moderate head wound, while the remainder suffered light injuries.
