It will be a great day for the U.S.A. when Nadler, a pathetic lightweight, is out of office and leaves our beautiful, and NOW VERY SAFE, Washington, D.C. MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN! President DJT
Confused and badly failing Democrat Party did nothing about Jeffrey Epstein while he was alive except befriend him, socialize with him, travel to his Island, and take his money! They knew everything there was to know about Epstein, but now, years after his death, they, out of nowhere, are seeming to show such love and heartfelt concern for his victims. Does anybody really believe that? Where were they during his very public trials, and for all of those years before his death? The answer is, “nowhere to be found.” The now dying (after the DOJ gave thousands of pages of documents in full compliance with a very comprehensive and exacting Subpoena from Congress!) Epstein case was only brought back to life by the Radical Left Democrats because they are doing so poorly, with the lowest poll numbers in the history of the Party (16%), while the Republicans are doing so well, among the highest approval numbers the Party has ever had! The Dems don’t care about the victims, as proven by the fact that they never did before. This is merely another Democrat HOAX, just like Russia, Russia, Russia, and all of the others, in order to deflect and distract from the great success of a Republican President, and the record setting failure of the previous Administration, and the Democrat Party. The Department of Justice has done its job, they have given everything requested of them. It’s time to end the Democrat Epstein Hoax, and give the Republicans credit for the great, even legendary, job that they are doing. MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!!!

ReplyDeleteBH the "toras hagashmiyus" of Lakewood is spreading to Boro Park. Who would have thought this 20 years ago. Does everyone remember the days when you wanted a nice suit in Lakewood you got it in Brecher's basement? This is what Rav Berel Wein Z"L would say "G-d's sense of humor".
ReplyDeleteLakewood became such a king of gashmias, that it stores are opening up branches in Brooklyn instead of vice versa
ReplyDeleteI saw a picture recently of one of the visiting rivers to Lakewood he was dressed and such a outlandish garb it looked like it was made from the same material is the wedding gown that my wife wore at our daughter's wedding. What happened to beged ishsa? Lol
ReplyDeleteI've seen some rosh yeshivas that have hairstyles that are longer than my wife. What about lo silbash and other related issurim? Do you even know the reason behind the colors? Maybe inquire before spewing your ridiculous comments.
DeleteWell, I would hope so because your wife probably shaves her head
DeleteRidiculous kids were in school for an hour this morning because of busing
ReplyDeleteIs this why the schools charge tuition for 1 hour on Friday??
Do you pay full tuition, or you just love to complain? I have found that those that pay in full have the least complaints.
DeleteReally, @9:29, did you actually take a survey and count up the amount of people who pay full tuition and match them up with the amount of people who complain?
DeleteI feel sorry for you, if you did.
I have been involved in a number of schools in this town, and the statistic is very accurate.
DeleteIt makes sense. People who don't pay tuition are struggling financially and therefore they will be the most stressed about missing hours of work/losing pay.
DeleteThis fits with Gemarah in Moed Koton Daf 23 that L"A a hesped is said on the death of a young child of a poor person but not on the young child of a rich person. Rashi explains, the poor person only has his children so he feels more pain when they die than a rich person.
DeleteThe poor people only have their children, that's why the complain when the school isn't performing. The rich person has his mind on his money & doesn't get so involved to complain.
Lsta has to open the books
ReplyDeleteThey have no oversight while they spend 50 million of tax dollars from the BOE.
DeleteThey should be forced to a public audit and show how much they take in salaries
Why is Avi Schnall not demanding accountability from the LSTA
Cause Avi Schnall is on the payroll of the LSTA.
DeleteStupid there book are open ever heard of a 990 non for profit… you will never be happy stop complaining.
DeleteIt's very easy to hide things on a 990.
DeleteIf you can’t read the 990 good luck. A audit by big accounting firm would also be able to hide things just like a 990, in fact most states require the 990 to be audited. So I guess open the books just means complain since there is no solution for since they will always be hiding…
DeleteAll the real gashmiyus here started with the importation of the boro park culture.
ReplyDeleteודי למבין
Yes I'm sure it's based on very deep mystical reasons that rebbes with long white beards where beketshed made out of women's gown material
ReplyDeleteThere's an important, practical reason. See ב"ק יא: - דלשתמען מילים.
DeleteBut to a cynic who lacks perspective and purpose, everything and everyone is an opportunity to knock down to make themselves feel better. How sad
Why no shloshim event for r shmuel deutsh in Lakewood.? His son chaim Tzvi formerly of woodlake and his son in law from one of his marriages live here.
ReplyDeletePerfect opportunity for an event.
DeleteBut maybe the singers are booked up for another event already.
The LSTA needs to be fired (ha they hired themselves how do they get fired?) There is nothing right about the bussing in this town right now it's 1 huge mess especially now that the PS started school. No one takes accountability for anything in this town. The rabbanim don't rule it's the $$$ that rules. Why do morahs charge whatever they feel like??? Where'd this whole playgroup tuition raise come from?It trippled in the last 5 years. No one got such huge raises as the morahs. They claim their expenses went up well so did everyone else's and they knew good and well that a morahs salary doesn't compare to someone working in an office. Well guess what now the morahs make alot more than the ladies working in offices. 90k cash not bad when some months they work maybe 10-12 days if ur lucky. This town needs alot of help in all areas. It's a standard what goes on in Lakewod on all fronts.
