Here’s why FBI raided John Bolton’s home and office: ‘Nothing to do with the book’

FBI agents raided the Maryland home and Washington, DC office of President Trump’s former national security adviser John Bolton Friday morning in a high-profile probe of allegations that he sent “highly sensitive” classified documents to his family from a private email server while working in the White House.

Federal investigators went to Bolton’s house in Bethesda, Md., at 7 a.m. in an investigation ordered by FBI Director Kash Patel, a Trump administration official told The Post. Agents later went to Bolton’s office in downtown DC, but did not enter until a judge signed a warrant for that location late Friday morning.

“NO ONE is above the law… @FBI agents on mission,” Patel said in a cryptic post to X shortly after the raid began.

Bolton has not been arrested and is not currently charged with any crimes, the administration official added.

“He’s not a smart guy, but he could be a very unpatriotic guy,” President Trump told reporters of Bolton Friday morning. “We’re going to find out.” 

Investigators reopened a dormant probe into Bolton’s alleged use of a private email to send classified national security documents to his wife and daughter from his work desk before his dismissal by Trump in September 2019, according to a senior US official.

“While Bolton was a national security adviser, he was literally stealing classified information, utilizing his family as a cutout,” this person charged.

Hundreds of Chareidim in Beit Shemesh at a Kumzitz to Support the Religious Battalion in the IDF!

Hundreds of Chareidim in Beit Shemesh at a Kumzitz to Support the Religious Battalion in the IDF!

A Different Haredi Voice:

 Beit Shemesh rally backs IDF’s Hashmonaim Brigade 

Communities in Beit Shemesh announced an evening support event for soldiers of the Hashmonaim Brigade—with prayers, letters, and care-package prep—presented as “a different voice” inside the Haredi public.

The Hashmonaim Brigade is the IDF’s first all-Haredi combat formation, launched this year with strict kashrut, fixed Torah-study times, and rabbinic coordination. 

The brigade’s first beret march concluded near the Western Wall earlier this month.

While extremists block highways and rail against enlistment, Beit Shemesh residents are choosing to show up for Haredi soldiers who are already serving.

Israel and Syria to sign security agreement on September 25

The Saudi-owned newspaper Independent Arabia reported early Friday morning, citing "senior Syrian sources," that Israel and Syria are expected to sign a security agreement on September 25 under American auspices. The agreement is slated to be signed a day after Syrian President Ahmed al-Sharaa delivers his first speech at the United Nations General Assembly.

According to the sources, the agreement will be a security arrangement aimed at reducing tensions between Jerusalem and Damascus. However, a comprehensive peace deal between the two countries is not expected "in the near future."

Furthermore, Sky News Arabia reported, citing its sources, that the US is working to facilitate a meeting next month between President al-Sharaa and Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, with US President Donald Trump expected to participate. The report noted that the recent appointment of a new Syrian representative to the UN, with negotiation authority, was made "in this context."

Sky News Arabia also reported progress in talks held this week in Paris between Strategic Affairs Minister Ron Dermer and Syrian Foreign Minister Asaad al-Shibani. However, the main point of contention remains Israel’s desire to maintain an IDF presence at several strategic sites in Syria, including the radar station on the Syrian Hermon and Tel al-Hara in the Quneitra province.

The reports have not yet been officially confirmed by either Israel or Syria.

Syria’s official news agency reported late Tuesday night that al-Shaibani held a meeting in Paris with an Israeli delegation, though it did not mention that Dermer headed the Israeli delegation.

According to the report, the talks were mediated by the United States and centered on measures to strengthen stability in southern Syria and the wider region.

The discussions reportedly addressed several key issues: de-escalation along the border, adherence to the principle of non-interference in Syria’s internal affairs, regional stability, monitoring the ceasefire in the Druze Mountain area, and the renewal of the 1974 disengagement agreement.

The Syrian report emphasized that these contacts form part of a wider international diplomatic initiative aimed at safeguarding Syria’s security and territorial integrity.

The report was highly unusual, marking the first time in more than 25 years that an official Syrian media outlet has acknowledged direct contact between the Syrian government and Israel.

 

Hotovely to UK: Don't tell us where to build in Jerusalem

Israel's Ambassador to the UK, Tzipi Hotovely, fiercely pushed back against British officials after being summoned over a new construction project in the E1 area, which connects Ma’ale Adumim to Jerusalem.

"I wouldn't tell the British where to build in London," Hotovely told the Daily Mail Thursday night. "We see E1 as part of greater Jerusalem."

Hotovely was summoned for a meeting after UK Foreign Secretary David Lammy condemned Israel's approval of plans for 3,400 homes in E1.

Lammy said in a statement on Wednesday that the E1 plans, if implemented, "would divide a Palestinian state in two, mark a flagrant breach of international law and critically undermine the two-state solution".

"The Israeli government must reverse this decision," he added.

The Civil Administration approved the advancement of the E1 project on Wednesday, nearly a week after it was officially announced during a press conference led by Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich.

While European countries have condemned the construction, US Ambassador to Israel Mike Huckabee said that "this is not a violation of international law."

"We will not dictate to Israel what to do, we will not interfere in the running of the country. It would be very strange to say that others can live in this area but Israelis cannot," Huckabee said in an interview with Galei Tzahal (IDF Radio).

The US State Department similarly said that the construction of Jewish houses in E1 supports Israel's security and is in line with the administration's goals.

 

FIRED! Atlanta Doctor Loses Job After Antisemitic Tirade

 A few days ago,  a shocking video from Atlanta showing a couple verbally assaulting David Lubin — whose daughter, Rose, was brutally murdered by a Palestinian terrorist. Many others shared the same clip, and outrage quickly spread.

This couple has a history: they regularly display signs with antisemitic slurs like “kike,” post pro-Palestinian slogans, and rip down memorial stickers honoring Rose whenever they see them.

Now, there’s been fallout. The man in the video, Dr. Mark Bouzyk, has been officially terminated by his employer. AllaiHealth released a statement:

“We are deeply disturbed and disheartened by the video circulating involving Dr. Mark Bouzyk, a former officer of AllaiHealth. He has officially been terminated as of August 18, 2025.”

Ger losses battle to keep a rapist and pedophile from getting Jail Time!

 

Translated from Hebrew 

Gerer leaders fought to save a Gerer Chasid a pedophile who continuously raped his own sister-in-law starting when she was only 11 years old!

To add insult to injury, Ger threw the victim's father out of Ger because he couldn't convince his daughter to withdraw her complaint with the police.

 The victim's husband, a Chabad Hasid, found out about what his brother-in-law had done to his wife as a child and insisted that she file a complaint with the police. 

Gur was furious and fought with all their might to save the rapist - but today all this came to a conclusion as  the judge sentenced the rapist to 13 years in prison, and Ger is even angry at the judge for not taking into account the fact that he was a Gerer Hassid who even though a rapist and a pedophile should have immunity for such acts

The Father's name is Yosef Danieltzik, whose father had a dry cleaner on Rabbi Akiva Street in Bnei Brak, 

Ger threw him out of Ger because he had the chutzpah of supporting his daughter. 

The victim subsequently married a man named Weintraub and wasn't someone who would take all this quietly !

Ger is furious that this matter was brought to the police and the law authorities.

 the Rebbe's gabbai told him that it was a Chillul Hashem , and that there is a Bais Din (LOL) and that he should have prevented his daughter from filing a complaint, and that she should drop the civil lawsuit.

 Danielczyk, for his part, claimed that his daughter was independent and that he was willing to be tested by a lie detector that he did try his best to prevent her from filing a to complain to the police, and indeed he was tested by a lie detector and the results were that he was in fact telling the truth, after a while there was an article by Rabinovich in the Haaretz newspaper that described the entire story which angered the Gerer hierarchy , and in the end they had no choice but to throw him out of Ger.

The victim was married to this Chabad Chassid, and he could no longer hear her pain, and in order for her to heal and come out of the trauma, her husband encouraged her to file a complaint with the authorities.

 The defendant, a Gerer Chusid, as part of a plea bargain, confessed and took responsibility for criminal acts that would shock anyone reading the complaint and he received 13 years of prison plus mandatory therapy   and 3 years of suspended release plus compensation of 550,000 to the victim

Jordan introduces school textbooks justifying Hamas massacre

An investigation into Jordan’s school curriculum has uncovered textbooks for the 2023-2024 and 2024-2025 school years that legitimize Hamas’s October 7, 2023, attack on Israel, celebrate jihad, demonize Jews, and advocate the ethnic cleansing of Israelis, all while omitting any mention of the Holocaust.

A review by the Institute for Monitoring Peace and Cultural Tolerance in School Education (IMPACT-se) found that Jordan’s National Center for Curriculum Development introduced a new Grade 10 National and Civic Education textbook that frames Hamas’s October 7 attack as a response to Israeli oppression.

The textbook, introduced three months after Hamas’s attack, blames Israel for ignoring United Nations resolutions and “committing massacres.”

It omits Hamas’s slaughter of more than 1,100 Israelis and undermines Jordan’s peace treaty with Israel by calling Isarel “the Enemy.”

Inside upstate retreat for aging Holocaust survivors living in NYC — where kugel baking is therapy

 

Some of New York’s last living Holocaust survivors escaped the city — temporarily leaving economic burdens, lonely apartments and surging antisemitism fears behind — for a weeklong summer respite in the mountains to partake in “simple joys.”

More than 40 survivors ranging in age from 80 to 105 — mostly Brooklynites living below the federal poverty level — gathered for an all-expenses paid, five-day trip to the Catskill mountains this week to bake kugel, make bracelets for former Israeli hostages and bond with others who share their harrowing childhood experiences.

“It’s a lifeline for them,” said Masha Pearl, executive director of Holocaust survivor fund The Blue Card, which has organized the $30,000 getaway since 2008.

“They are able to experience activities that promote socialization, mind-body rejuvenation and …. are able to receive support for the trauma they endured,” she added.

“Some of these people have lost their spouses, we hear some responses from them that this is the first time they smiled [since]. Some of them are opening up about their experiences that they haven’t opened up [about] before.”

The trip comes at a time when antisemitic attacks in New York City are on the rise — and vulnerable survivors are even more on edge about the Israel-Hamas war, Pearl said.

“Holocaust survivors are very alarmed by the news, many of them are glued to the TV — and one thing that therapists advise is to balance news with self-care activities,” she explained. “When they see protests or certain symbols, they are alarmed.”

Since Oct. 7, 2023, Pearl has witnessed a surge in requests for specialized therapy services from survivors — as hate crimes against Jewish New Yorkers rose from 54% in 2024 to 62% in the first quarter of 2025, per NYPD statistics.

“There’s been calls, letters from survivors who are frightened,” Pearl said. “There’s that fear of ‘will I will be rounded up again,’ and ‘what are the next few years going to look like?’”

Many Holocaust survivors live below the federal poverty level for a “number” of reasons, the nonprofit said, from arriving as refugees after the war with nothing to having lost education, families and assets during the Holocaust and spending early adulthood trying to survive by working low-paying jobs.

Israel to Perform World’s First Human Spinal Cord Implant

 Israel is set to perform the world’s first human spinal cord implant using a patient’s own cells, a procedure that could allow paralyzed patients to regain mobility, Tel Aviv University announced. The surgery, expected in the coming months, will take place in Israel under the leadership of Professor Tal Dvir, head of the Sagol Center for Regenerative Biotechnology.

The procedure uses blood and fat cells from the patient to create a lab-grown spinal cord that replaces damaged tissue and reconnects the nervous system. Animal studies have shown that the implants can restore walking ability in paralyzed rats.

The technology, commercialized by Israeli biotech company Matricelf, recently received preliminary approval from Israel’s Ministry of Health for “compassionate use” trials in eight patients. Matricelf CEO Gil Hakim called the milestone “a step toward transforming an area of medicine long considered untreatable,” while Dvir emphasized the potential to help patients rise from wheelchairs.

Frank Caprio, Compassionate Viral Judge, Dies at 88

 Frank Caprio, the Rhode Island judge who became a viral sensation for his kindness and understanding in the courtroom, has died at 88 after a battle with pancreatic cancer.

Caprio gained worldwide attention in 2017 when videos showed him helping people with traffic tickets in Providence, calling children to the bench to participate in judgments, encouraging students to attend college in exchange for dropped fines, and arranging payment plans for those struggling financially.

“Beloved for his compassion, humility, and unwavering belief in the goodness of people, Judge Caprio touched millions through his work in the courtroom and beyond,” an Instagram post on his official account read. Less than a day before his passing, Caprio shared a video asking for prayers, smiling softly throughout.

Reflecting on his approach, Caprio once said, “I don’t wear a badge under my robe. I wear a heart under my robe,” emphasizing the importance of understanding individual circumstances rather than strict enforcement alone.

 

Dumb Israelis keep producing life-saving drugs worldwide while they get kicked in the derriere

 

Italy
Throwing Israeli drugs in the bin

 Doctors in Italy are facing backlash after a video showed Dr. Rita Segantini and nurse Giulia Checcacci tossing Teva Pharmaceuticals products in protest against Israel. The footage, shared on social media, ignited outrage as anti-Israel sentiment rises in the country.

The two later apologized, saying it was “a symbolic gesture for peace” and that no actual medicine was discarded. Segantini clarified that the items—free samples like wet wipes and supplements—were immediately removed and that the video was filmed outside working hours.

Both work at a community hospital in Tuscany, and their actions drew criticism online and from lawmakers, including Deborah Bergamini of Forza Italia, who called it “ideological activism” and urged disciplinary measures. The Southeast Tuscany Health Authority launched an internal inquiry to protect the hospital’s reputation and staff professionalism.

Teva, founded in Israel, produces life-saving drugs worldwide, including in Italy. Observers said the video highlighted a concerning misuse of medical authority, even if the act was symbolic.

Speculation why Rav Landau Called OFF Thursday's Mass Demonstration ... The Arrested are not really "Bnei_Torah"

 

Meir Sharki on Channel 12: 

There are differences of opinion as to why the protests were shelved. 

Some claim that this is because the yeshivot are on vacation and there was concern that the demonstrations would get out of control. 

But the more credible claim is that the demonstrations were canceled because the detainees are not from frum traditional cities and they are not really yeshiva students. 

The huge rallies will be held when young men from the heart of the frum cities are arrested.

Any action to recognize Palestinian state will be met with opposing reaction from Israel

 Isaac Newton’s third law of motion – for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction – seems to apply everywhere but to Israel, at least judging by the shock and dismay displayed in the wake of its recent moves.

How else can one explain the international uproar over Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich’s announcement of construction plans in the E1 corridor linking Jerusalem and Ma’aleh Adumim, France’s protests over reports its Jerusalem consulate may be closed if Paris recognizes a Palestinian state, or Australia’s outrage after Israel revoked visas for its representatives to the Palestinian Authority following its decision to bar MK Simcha Rothman from visiting the Jewish community there?

It is as if the world believes it can take steps that Israel views as profoundly inimical to its interests, such as a recognition of a Palestinian state, and that Jerusalem will acquiesce without responding. It is as if Israel has no agency of its own.

While Israel Struggles in Gaza ..Bein Hazmanim Craziness....Peleg Paralyzes Israel As They shut Down ALL Main Roads.. Ambulances Cannot get Through

 While organizers officially announced a protest near Prison 10, the real plan was to block major highways — Route 6, Route 2, and Route 4. 

Police forces had already been reinforced around the prison, unaware of the diversion.

The Jerusalem faction declared:

 “Roads will be shut down for the coming hours.”

Due to roadblocks set up by the Peleg Faction, thousands of drivers are stuck in heavy traffic jams.

At the Same time as Antisemites Protest Jews All Over the World, 1,000 Satmars Protest and Denigrate Israel in New York

 

More than 1,000 Frum Jews filled the streets outside the Israeli Consulate this afternoon to protest Israel’s newly intensified military draft policies. 

The rally, organized by the Satmar community of Williamsburg, drew a larger-than-expected crowd, spilling beyond the designated protest area. Police opened an additional street and expanded traffic lanes to accommodate participants.

DIN: I was debating whether I should post this video, and I held back for three days. I was waiting to see if this video would go viral, and it did. It managed to get over 300,000 hits on various platforms, even though most people don't even understand Yiddish, but I guess they read the posters in the video.

Over the years I have gotten much criticism and hate mail from people accusing me of being anti-Charedi, anti-frum, but anyone who knows me, knows that I actually love every single Jew, and this accusation is so far out that it begs an explanation, since most of the time I just post a story that I copy and paste with no comment, I let the readers decide! 

100% of all my posts have already been posted elsewhere with thousands of views, so if you say that this is Loshon Hara, you have to go back and learn the criteria of what Loshon Hara really is!

I'm 100% positive that no one who understands Yiddish and listened to the guy who is barking and wailing on the video at the protest, would accuse him of being anti-Jewish and no one would accuse him of spreading hate against his fellow Jews, yet that is exactly what he did, and this is only one a tiny part of his hate-speech at the hate-fest! And he did this in front of the entire world, with the entire press present thanks to Satmar ASSkanim. The protest was reported in the international media though I see that it didn't make it in US media, yet, thank G-d! 

He quoted Rav Elchonon Wasserman hy"d who he says wrote that "Zionists are the real Amalekites"

I have to ask you to pause, to let those words sink in!

Every Jew has an obligation to kill and murder and wipe Amalek off the face of the earth if he knows for certain who that is! 

Well, it seems that according to Rav Wasserman hy"d we know who that is, as he has positively identified them.

Now to be sure, Rav Wasserman hy"d wrote that in the 1920's, some 25 years before the State of Israel was established! It is true that the then Zionists were definitely a threat to frum Jews, but at the same time they were planting the seeds for a home where all Jews would be welcome.

Since then, Zionists without the help of Charedim built a home for 8 million Jews, a State that has the most Torah Institutions than anywhere in the entire world and has the most Torah being learned there since the times of Yehoshua, and the Zionist entity supports those Institutions to the tune of 800,000 Shekels, $235 million Dollars a year! 

Rav Elchonon Wasserman hy"d murdered in Europe by the Nazis, is now in the World of Truth and now knows that the Zionists that established the State in 1948 did so only because that was what Hashem wanted, and it was a specifically divinely designed plan ! (Listen to Rabbi Wein's tapes)

Why the RBS"O would want non-Torah Jews to build this State is answered in the Sefer "Eim Habanim Semicha" by Harav Teichtal hy"d! 

Question: Why would over 1,000 Jews congregate in New York City to denounce and denigrate the only Jewish State, home for 8 million Jews, with posters similar to what we see at pro-Hamas protests?

This at a time where the entire Europe and parts of the USA is backing Hamas in the fight for Israel's very survival!

Putting aside that he quoted Rav Elchonon Wasserman hy"d, how is it possible for a Jew, any Jew, to call another Jew an "Amalekite?" 

This Rabbi in the video calls millions of Jews "Amalekites" that even Jews have an obligation to annihilate! 

What should we expect from the gentiles that are calling for the elimination of Israel, if "Frum" Jews themselves are calling for their elimination?

Why are Torah leaders silent? 

Why is it that the Aguda is silent?? 

What is ironic is that the very people that this Rabbi calls "Amalikites" saved the life of his rebbe whose Yurzeit was just this week! A Zionist an Amalekite saved the life of Rav Yoel Teitelbaum z"l ! 

Less than two years ago, Hamas killers murdered and raped Jewish wives and daughters for the sole reason that they were Jews. Were these victims "Amalekites?'  

So who exactly is he referring to? 

Is he referring to other Jews that asking legitimate questions:
