Tucker Carlson, we in Israel have great respect for American patriots, and certainly count your audience among them.

I want to remind you that Israel has never, and will never ask for American boots on the ground.

Kevin McMahon, of Selden, alleges that Jamaica Hospital’s negligence led to him being sent home with the wrong parents—a mix-up that went undiscovered for 60 years, according to a lawsuit filed in Queens Supreme Court.
The revelation came in late 2020, when McMahon’s sister, Carol Vignola, submitted her DNA to Ancestry.com. The results raised red flags when they showed no genetic connection to Kevin.
Instead, they linked her to a man named Ross McMahon, who coincidentally shared Kevin’s birthday–May 26, 1960–and birthplace–Jamaica Hospital.
Further digging revealed that Ross and Kevin were born just hours apart and their birth certificate numbers were consecutive. Eventually, DNA tests confirmed what seemed unthinkable: the two men had been switched at birth.
The lawsuit, filed in November 2021, accuses Jamaica Hospital of negligence and medical malpractice. McMahon claims the hospital failed to properly monitor and identify newborns, sending them home with the wrong families — a mistake he says caused “great emotional mental anguish, distress, pain, and agony.”
Even more devastating, McMahon says he was denied the chance to meet his biological parents, who both passed away before the truth came to light. The lawsuit also notes that he was raised in an “emotionally abusive” home — a life he believes could have been avoided had the error not occurred.
McMahon is seeking damages in an amount that exceeds the jurisdictional limits of lower courts. The case remains pending in Queens.
Daily Voice has reached out to Jamaica Hospital Medical Center for comment.

“To jaw-jaw is always better than to war-war,” Winston Churchill reportedly said.
We will soon know if Iran agrees.
The talks scheduled for Saturday between Iran and the United States are shaping up as a crucial test of the mad mullahs’ intentions. If they are hell-bent on building nuclear weapons, war is inevitable.
It would be war with Israel and probably with America, too. For Iran, that means taking on the Little Satan and the Great Satan simultaneously.
That’s what the crazy mullahs always said they wanted. If it hasn’t occurred to them yet, soon they will realize what a colossal mistake they have made.
“If they don’t make a deal, there will be bombing,” President Trump said recently. “It will be bombing the likes of which they have never seen before.”
Nothing subtle about that!
The president, who revealed the planned weekend talks while meeting Monday in the Oval Office with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, said, “I think everybody agrees that doing a deal would be preferable to doing the obvious.
“The obvious is not something that I want to be involved with, or frankly that Israel wants to be involved with if they can avoid it,” he said. “So we’ll see if we can avoid it . . . It’s getting to be very dangerous territory.”
The talks, to be held in Oman, will be direct negotiations, the president said, but Iran later said the talks would be “indirect,” meaning with a mediator.
Either way, Trump’s bottom line is the absolute right one: Iran must dismantle its nuclear program and not just pretend to abide by restrictions and inspections aimed at preventing it from building a nuclear weapon.
Those were the major terms of the 2015 deal Barack Obama and Europe crafted, and Trump wisely canceled it during his first White House tenure because it lacked solid verification procedures and penalties.
Because Iran was cheating on nearly every aspect of the deal and playing hide and seek with inspectors, there was no way to know with confidence what it was really doing.
Almost as bad, Iran was using billions of dollars Obama had unfrozen to fund its nuclear program and its terror proxies. Talk about a lose-lose. Naturally, Joe Biden foolishly aimed to reverse Trump’s reversal by trying to coax Iran back into another soft deal and even withdrew or stopped enforcing oil and banking sanctions to sweeten the offer.
He also paid a reported $6 billion for the return of five American hostages.
In return he got bupkis, demonstrating his fecklessness on the global stage. Thanks largely to his chaotic and deadly withdrawal from Afghanistan, our adversaries didn’t fear him, Iran included.
A security source on Wednesday morning said that the IDF has destroyed around 25% of Hamas' tunnels in Gaza, Channel 12 News reported.
According to the report, the defense echelon believes that there is a significant number of smuggling tunnels which cross from Gaza into Egypt.
Earlier this year, Defense Minister Israel Katz said that the Philadelphi Corridor will remain a buffer zone, similar to those in Lebanon and Syria.
"I saw with my own eyes more than a few tunnels which penetrate the Philadelphi," he said. "Some of them are closed and some are open. We had information that Hamas, during the ceasefire, planned to attack soldiers and towns."
Last year, The New York Times reported that that Hamas leader Yahya Sinwar approved a $225,000 project to install blast doors to protect vulnerable sections of the tunnel network a year before the October 7 massacre.
According to the report, prior to the massacre, Israel focused on tunnels that were dug under the border with Gaza but largely ignored the tunnels being dug entirely within Gaza, allowing Hamas to build a vast network it has used to avoid unwanted confrontations, stage ambushes, travel in secret, and hide many of the approximately 250 hostages who were kidnapped on October 7.
Experts said that this vast tunnel network is the reason Israel has not yet succeeded in its stated goal of dismantling Hamas, as the terrorist group's forces would stand little chance against the IDF if they were forced to fight entirely aboveground.
The Supreme Court on Tuesday evening issued an interim order freezing Shin Bet chief Ronen Bar’s dismissal after 11 hours of deliberations over an issue it has no authority over.
Israeli law clearly authorizes the government to dismiss the Shin Bet chief.
Meanwhile, the court granted the government an extension until April 20 for the government and Attorney-General Gali Baharav-Miara to reach an “acceptable and creative solution” – and if one is not found, the Supreme Court will issue a ruling. The court also ordered the government not to announce a replacement for Bar or interview candidates for the position until a compromise is reached or a ruling is issued.
The Prime Minister’s Office responded to the ruling by stating: “The panel of judges repeatedly stated in the hearing that there is no dispute over the government’s authority to remove the head of the Shin Bet from his position. Therefore, the Supreme Court’s decision to postpone the end date of the Shin Bet head’s term by ten days is puzzling.”
“The Attorney General’s goal is to prevent Ronen Bar’s dismissal in any way possible for a long time, under the pretext that there is an active investigation [Qatargate]. It is inconceivable that the government of Israel would be prevented from removing a failing Shin Bet head from his position simply because of the opening of an investigation that is not related to any of the government ministers. On the contrary – such a result would allow any failing Shin Bet head who wants to remain in office to open an investigation against anyone connected to the office of any of the ministers, thereby preventing his dismissal.”
The office noted: “The Prime Minister will continue to interview candidates for the position of head of the Shin Bet.”
Communications Minister Shlomo Karhi responded to the ruling by stating: “No! The government must obey the law! Duty of allegiance to the State of Israel and its laws (!) not to an unconstitutional and unauthorized order.”
“The ‘creative solution’ is very simple: Ronen Bar will end his term on April 10.”
“This is our duty: to protect democracy and the security of the state. These are the checks and balances sometimes required to balance the judicial authority. If not in such a case of harming the security of the state, where is the red line? Right of return for Palestinians? Abolishing the Jewish state and turning it into a state of all its citizens? What is democratic about the absolute rule of Yitzhak Amit???”
Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich responded by calling on the government to boycott Bar. “The Supreme Court allows itself to harm the security of the state, and we have the responsibility to prevent this. I call on the Prime Minister not to summon Bar to discussions and not to work with him, not to enter into any negotiations with the Attorney General to find an ‘acceptable compromise.’ “We have a responsibility for the continued functioning of Israel’s security, and the arrogance of the judges must not tie our hands in a time of war.”
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s second meeting with U.S. President Donald Trump this year, while warmly staged, appears to have fallen short of delivering concrete results especially on the pressing issue of trade tariffs.
Following their first encounter in February, members of Netanyahu’s coalition loudly celebrated the meeting’s success. This time, however, there was near-total silence. The lack of public praise is telling, particularly in an Israeli political climate where positive spin is rarely withheld.
One of the major disappointments came in the form of Trump’s refusal to reverse the newly imposed 17% tariffs on Israeli goods. When pressed on the issue, Trump casually replied, “Maybe yes, maybe no.” With Netanyahu sitting beside him, the Israeli leader was left to meekly point out that Israel does not impose tariffs on the United States a comment that, while factual, underscores Israel’s one-sided vulnerability in the new trade dynamic.
This raises broader concerns about the future of Israeli-American economic ties. Netanyahu has suggested that the trade imbalance where Israel exports more than it imports from the U.S. will somehow be corrected. But he has not clarified how this will happen. Will Israeli exports shrink, or will U.S. goods be pushed into the Israeli market? Businesses and economic leaders in Israel remain in the dark.
Equally disconcerting to many Israelis was Trump’s public announcement that he intends to open direct negotiations with Iran. This marks a dramatic pivot for a president who, during his first term, exited the Iran nuclear deal at Netanyahu’s urging. Now, Trump is proposing a new engagement strategy an ironic reversal of roles that must be unsettling for a prime minister who has spent years warning the world about Iran’s nuclear ambitions.
To be sure, the Trump-Netanyahu meeting wasn’t entirely without value. Trump reaffirmed his support for Israel’s right to self-defense in Gaza and issued a stern warning to Iran. Yet these gestures were largely symbolic. They may boost morale, but they do little to address Israel’s growing economic concerns or to contain Iran’s regional aggression in a meaningful way.
In the end, the meeting produced more headlines than substance. While Netanyahu sought strategic reassurance and economic relief, he left Washington without either. For Israeli leaders and citizens alike, it’s a sobering reminder that even close friendships in politics can carry sharp limits.
Prior to Pesach, which begins on Saturday night, the rabbis of Beit Shemesh published a special public notice (“Kol Koreh”) with specific instructions for the disposal of chametz (leavened products), emphasizing a prohibition against discarding chametz via the toilet.
DIN: There is no such "prohibition"; they made it up! It's a common-sense issue! I see signs in the toilets on an airplane and in malls that one shouldn't flush down anything except toilet paper, and no rabbi ever signed beneath those signs!
The notice, signed by Rabbi Natan Kupshitz—chief rabbi of the Haredi quarter in Beit Shemesh and a judge on the Badatz of the Edah HaChareidis—along with about 30 other rabbis from the city, states that the prohibition applies to flushing chametz down the toilet “whether on its own, and all the more so if wrapped in plastic or placed in a container.”
DIN: its erev Pesach and everyone I see on the street has no time to talk to each other, yet these rabbis got together to discuss this? When was this "asifa?" was this on zoom? Wasn't there one single rebbitzen screaming at their husband " stop with the shutsim, go unpack the Pesach stuff"
Because Passover Eve this year falls on Shabbat, it requires special preparations for the removal of chametz. Many people have been accustomed to disposing of chametz on Shabbat by flushing it, but the rabbis are now ruling that this is not permissible.
DIN: Are they ruling? For whom are they "ruling" this? Every sane person knows not to flush down stuff that can clog the plumbing! Apparently, the Yeshiva Leit are so naive and dumb that they need a ruling to "prohibit" something that makes common sense!
This letter comes in response to a request from Rabbi Meir Shechter, a member of the city council and the supervisor of the municipal water corporation “Mei Shemesh.” He reported that in previous years with the same calendar setup, incidents occurred where flushing chametz caused clogs, pipe bursts, and even flooding that led to chametz resurfacing in people’s homes during the holiday.
DIN: My premonition is correct, they are addressing the Yeshiva Leit who are so far-frumt or should I say far-krumpt, that they have no problem flushing down plastic bags with chumetz! And this krum thinking comes from not working for a living! Someone who works for a living and knows how difficult it is to support a family knows not to clog his pipes, because they don't need an extra expense!
The rabbis stress that this is not only a technical or infrastructure concern, but also poses significant halachic (Jewish legal) problems.
“There have been several cases where, due to clogged pipes, chametz surfaced in other people’s homes, causing both damage and halachic stumbling blocks. This falls under the category of a ‘mitzvah achieved through a transgression,’ which is forbidden.”
DIN: "halachic stumbling blocks?????" What???? "Significant halachic problems????".......I am asking in all seriousness... would anyone in their right mind eat their neighbor's chumetz that came up through his pipe? What "halachic problems other than having a mess is there? I cannot for a second believe any of the signed rabbanim even know about this. This must be a sick prank!!
As an alternative, the rabbis recommend a different solution:
“Therefore, in a year like this, leftover pieces of chametz should be thrown into a public garbage bin such as one on the street or sidewalk [where there is an eruv], and it must be done before the deadline for chametz burning.”
The city’s rabbis, representing all community sectors, add that this solution is fully acceptable, stating:
“The municipality does not intend to take possession of what is in the public bins and will officially renounce ownership of all public garbage bins before Shabbat.”
According to some poskim one must include the garbage can in one’s Mechiras Chametz and also put bleach on the chametz one throws into the garbage to render it unfit for consumption.
The Beit Shemesh rabbis also instructed that the traditional burning of chametz must be done on Friday morning, as early as possible, as in other years—not in the later hours of the day.
We are facing a critical moment:
*Progressives are trying to take over* the World Zionist Congress.
If they succeed, they’ll use that power to fund movements that oppose Torah, Jewish identity, and tradition.
DIN: I truly believe that Rabbi Feldman and Rav Malkiel Kotler and his gang of 4, who are vehemently against voting, are secretly wishing that the Progressives take over and that they destroy Torah, Jewish identity, and tradition in Israel!
They want Frum Jews to remain in Chutz Le'aaretz!! Their hatred towards the only Jewish State, a home for close to 8 million Jews, makes no sense, just like the hatred that Arabs have against the State makes no sense! They are deliberately sabotaging Israel at the expense of Frum Jews!
That's why The Lakewood gang of 4 had thousands of Koill Guys slam their Gemarras Shut so they could attend an Asifa against the WZO vote, but turned into a Hate-Fest against the State of Israel. Their featured Speaker was R' Aaron Feldman a hater of the State! That's why last week Thursday they had another Asifa for Lakewood Avreichim and Bocrim and shlepped in an accused Sexual Pervert and vile, vicious hater of Israel, R' Schapiro, who wrote a Nazi-Like Book called "The Empty Wagon," a book similar to Mein Kampf!
Just like the Meraglim, that were the Torah Leaders of their time, wanted to stay in the Midbar and not enter Eretz Yisrael, the modern-day Meraglim are no different and want to enrich their own Moisdois in Chutz Le'aaretz
They are עתיד ליתן דין וחשבון
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu met with US President Donald Trump on Monday evening. The American president received Netanyahu warmly upon his arrival at the White House.
The two were expected to discuss the hostage deal, Iran, and the tariffs imposed last week on Israeli imports. Netanyahu arrived in the US directly from his state visit to Hungary - during which he spoke with the US president.
Before the meeting, the two leaders spoke to the press in the Oval Office. "I want to thank you for inviting me again to the White House. You've been a remarkable friend to the State of Israel. You stand by us, you are a great champion of our alliance. You actually do things that you say you would, and people respect that enormously," Netanyahu told Trump.
Regarding the meeting, Netanyahu summed up: "We had the opportunity to talk about many subjects. First if I can mention tariffs. I said to the President a very simple thing: We will eliminate the trade deficit with the US. We intend to do it very quickly, we think it's the right thing to do and we're going to also eliminate trade barriers. I think Israel can serve as a model for countries that ought to do the same." Netanyahu noted that he recognizes the US's position on imposing tariffs on countries that have tariffs on US imports.
Netanyahu also noted that he and the President discussed the hostages as well as the elimination of Hamas in Gaza and enabling the people of Gaza to leave.
A diplomatic source admitted this morning (Tuesday) that Prime Minister Netanyahu did not receive prior updates on the move announced by President Trump - the initiation of direct talks with Iran regarding its nuclear program.
The source noted that while the possibility that Trump would renew contacts with Iran was considered, it was evident from the joint press conference of the US President and the Prime Minister that Netanyahu did not know in advance about the move and was surprised by the statement.
He added that the fact that the Prime Minister was informed about the negotiations and that the USA has pledged to report to Israel on any developments that arise from them is very positive.
The source believes the talks will be noticeably different from those held under the Obama administration. The source claimed that these negotiations are imposed on Iran by American shows of force and sanctions, aligning with the Israeli insistence that America only negotiate through demonstrations of power.
President Trump announced that the US will start direct talks with Iran regarding its nuclear program this coming Saturday during his recent press conference with Prime Minister Netanyahu.
Netanyahu emphasized that the negotiations should lead to a situation where Iran has no way to obtain nuclear weapons.
Iran on Monday responded to US President Donald Trump’s announcement, made during a meeting with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu at the White House, that the US and Iran would hold direct talks on the Islamic Republic’s nuclear program.
The Islamic Republic said the comments are "a planned psychological move designed to influence local and global public opinion", according to the Reuters news agency.
Meanwhile, three Iranian officials with knowledge of plans for talks with the United States told The New York Times that Iran’s understanding of the talks was somewhat different from what President Trump described to reporters in the Oval Office.
According to the Iranian officials, representatives from Tehran and Washington plan to meet in Oman on Saturday for indirect talks, where representatives from each country would sit in separate rooms and Omani diplomats would carry messages back and forth.
The Iranian officials told The New York Times that Iran would be open to direct talks with the United States if the indirect negotiations went well.
Interior Minister Moshe Arbel on Monday stated that the initiative to evacuate civilians from the Gaza Strip is ongoing and 16 evacuation flights have already departed from Israel’s Ramon Airport.
“Over 16 flights have already departed from Ramon Airport – this will increase in the near future,” Arabel said at a conference.
Last month, Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu ordered the Mossad to locate countries willing to accept large numbers of Gazan residents.
Israel has already begun discussions on the initiative with several countries, including Indonesia, Somalia, and South Sudan.
