This misleading tweet has been up for 2 hours.
I just walked around Borough Park. Peaceful as ever.
This video is from the pro-Palestinian protest on Feb. 18, 2025 outside an Israeli real estate expo, which turned violent.
This quoted post is unavailable.

This is despicable. Antisemitism and hate have no home in New York.
I urge anyone with information to contact local law enforcement.

New York Attorney General Letitia James visited Rockland County today, where she was hosted at the home of Reb Joel Eisdorfer. The gathering was attended by multiple elected officials, askanim and community leaders from across the county.

PHOTOS: Ahead of the upcoming elections, New York State Attorney General Letitia James visited Airmont in Rockland County on Sunday, stopping at the home of community Askan Joel Eisdorfer, where she met with local Askonim, Mosdos representatives, elected officials, and community leaders who expressed their support and appreciation for her efforts in standing up against antisemitism.

New York needs an Attorney General who has actually delivered, and tonight that was clear. @TishJames has fought for working families, taken on billionaires and predatory corporations, and stood up to Washington. She has my full support. #AGDebate2026 #TeamJames

Today, we honor the innocent people murdered and families forever changed by the Hamas terrorist attacks in Israel three years ago.
Let us pray for lasting peace, and continue working together to combat hate and violence in all their forms.

I had a great time celebrating Williamsburg Shomrim at their Member Appreciation event this week!
Thank you to all the Shomrim volunteers for everything you do to help keep our neighborhoods safe.

Wishing all Jewish New Yorkers observing the solemn day of Tisha B’Av an easy and meaningful fast.
May this time of mourning bring comfort, strength, and renewed hope.

It was a pleasure welcoming NY State Attorney General @TishJames to Kiryas Joel where she met with the Mayor and Village leaders, and toured the beautiful post-natal center serving mothers and babies of the community.

My heart breaks over this horrible tragedy that took a 7-year-old girl’s life in Rockland County.
I’m keeping her family, loved ones, and community in my prayers.
May her memory be a blessing.

This plot targeting Jewish New Yorkers and communities across the world is horrific.
I’m grateful to the @NYPDnews and federal law enforcement for their swift response to this and I’m relieved that everyone is safe.
Hate has no home in New York.

Best part of @GovKathyHochul’s Jewish leadership event? Seeing my friend @YLefkowitz up and running again!
With some very serious Gabbaim, I might add! Joel, you look great! Refuah Shelayma!

This evening marks Yom HaShoah, where we honor and remember the six million Jews who were killed and the survivors whose lives were never the same.
We say their names and tell their stories.
We must stand united to fight antisemitism and hate in all its forms.

Chag Pesach Sameach, New York!
This evening, families gather for the Passover Seder, a cherished tradition celebrating the resiliency, freedom, and hope of the Jewish community.
I'm wishing all those celebrating a happy Passover filled with joy and blessings.

The antisemitic graffiti in Borough Park is disgusting.
We must reject antisemitism and hate in all its forms, and stand strong with the Jewish community.
Anyone who targets innocent New Yorkers must be held accountable.
Same park different day. A day later and this is what happened. We are requesting that @NYPDHateCrimes pull out all the stops to catch these vile Jew haters.

Thank you @GovKathyHochul for intervening to save the historic Kingsbrook Shul.
This synagogue has been meaningful to the community for decades, and I am grateful a treasured piece of Jewish history in New York will be preserved.

Sobibor. Sukkos. 1943.
A Jew from Rostov decided to do what no one else dared: lead a revolt against the Nazis.
Alexander Pechersky, together with Arkady Vayspapir and Semyon Rosenfeld, led the Sobibor uprising that gave hundreds a chance at life.
Over 80 years later, we will honor their memory in our communal sukkah this Shabbos.
May their neshamas have an aliyah.
