  2. More noise about security funding for schools .It's shameful how Agudah keeps talking about it like the best thing ever. The funds don't bring down tuition or keep the children safer. The schools have nothing to do with all the extra funding besides for installing security cameras every 2 feet to spy on the kids. The tablets and computers are a waste but they keep lobbying the politicians over this while it helps nobody. It is turning into like the Erate program that did not work out well

    2. Thr bigger question is how much money did Lakewood township give for the tuition grant
      How much money did Agudah spend advertising it as they had non stop ads in all the papers websites and billboards.
      Did they get good media coverage or free advertising in return for the ad revenue from the grants?
      How much money actually went to lakewood residents from the tuition grant.
      Would aguda and the Township be transparent about how they distributed our tax dollars?

  3. Trump's shameful behavior should not shock us.
    But people still support him.
    They think that small stories like freeing this felon or another is worth having a loose cannon, who plays around with law, as president with access to the nuclear football.

    1. What's shameful is your ridiculous comment. You're one of the gullible fools that belives every story peddled by the fake news media, their crony supporters, and the rabid anti-trump haters.

    2. “There was ketchup dripping down the wall and a shattered porcelain plate on the floor”
      Hmm... I wonder who that was said about.

    3. I totally agree about Trump being a loose cannon. Although most of us agree with his policies, his personality is too unpredictable and volatile for a responsible position. Some, like anonymous 4:16 choose to ignore this and parrot what they hear and see on Fox News, Sean Hannity and the like.

  4. “People still support him”? People? You don’t have a clue how much support he has!! The democrats and the media didn’t take him seriously last time and they still don’t understand the support he has. If he runs in 2024 he will be the nominee and will be the next President. I personally don’t want him to run but don’t underestimate his base.

    1. That's the problem
      We live in a country of morons, bumpkins and irresponsible people. We went from the foolish Poretz in Poland to the stupid politician in America.

  5. Camp tuition is actually way past $3000 for 3 and1/2 weeks for boys if you include bussing, tips trips and canteen. Throw in the obligatory shopping for nosh and clothing and the price is closer to $3500 and you don't even get a full month.
