Acting Commissioner of Education Angelica Allen-McMillan continues to drag her feet on her Court-ordered to render a final agency decision on a precise question - whether the denial of T&E was because “the funding structure of the School Funding Reform Act (SFRA) was unconstitutional as applied to Lakewood’s unique demographic situation.”

- Several prominent conservative figures have disseminated video footage from the Capitol Hill riot on January 6, 2021, just released by the new House Speaker, Mike Johnson. According to one commentator, this disclosure signifies the collapse of the “J6 Committee’s violent insurrection narrative.” On Friday, Johnson made approximately 90 hours of security footage from that day available on a committee website. Charlie Kirk, the leader of the pro-Trump group Turning Point USA, shared a 37-second clip depicting police officers and demonstrators in a congressional corridor without apparent conflict, declaring the demise of the J6 Committee’s narrative. Another snippet shared by Citizen Free Press suggested an arrested man being uncuffed by a police officer in a corridor, followed by a fist bump.
“The Capitol Police facilitated the protesters passage through the building. The vast majority of J6ers should be immediately released,” Kirk added.
The controversy around the TVOL article are from people who are jealous. The fact is that today Lakewood is the center of rich frum jews, and it is they that enable this town to function. They are showcasing extremes, and no one is expected to follow suite.
ReplyDeleteyou're joking right?
DeleteYou know the world stands from the Bnei torah no one else and the town is the town because of them. Evreything else is a sideshow
DeleteEvreything else is a sideshow
DeleteWhy, of all towns in NJ, is it Lakewood which became what it is? Why only Lakewood? Nothing to do with BMG, right 馃憖?
So two big issues in Lakewood Reb Osher Eiseman and the funding formula both got no mention from Avi Schnall campaign and Murphy is fighting the lawsuit and did nothing to help Reb Osher
ReplyDeleteAgain what exactly are we sending Schnall to Trenton for?
To do favors for a fee powerful rich guys?
Oh free tuition for everyone which was a campaign promise that will probably not happen
Oh he's good buddies with Murphy and texts him, so did he do anything about the funding formula or is the relationship with Murphy more important that Funding Lakewood and taking care of Reb Osher
Schnall is going to widen the wine.
DeleteWe sent Schnall to Trenton so that Adirei Hatorah can spend Thanksgiving with Tammy Murphy. That helps, because when Adirei Hatorah are happy, they give more $ to the Bnei Torah.
DeleteThe article this week in TVOL was just as bad as last weeks.
ReplyDeleteWhy isn’t there any normal people paying for their own simchas within their budget?

DeleteThere are no more normal people making simchas within their budget. That is so '60s and '70s This is Lakewood 2023!
