This is my neighbor Ed Rosenblum. He fought the Nazis on Normandy Beach, just celebrated his 98th birthday, an avid biker and a real mench. Tonight, he is celebrating the wedding of his great grand daughter. I thank him everyday for his service. Let’s show him love and thanks!

I was just walking on Newbury St in Boston with my brother and nephew who wear kippas. A Black man just walked straight up to us and yelled about us “fucking Jews” and how Black people are going to kill us all. Lots of people standing around watched and did nothing.

Heartbreaking news out of Israel. A young Canadian citizen was killed in a terror attack in Jerusalem. Thoughts are with Aliza and whose daughter was injured in this morning's attack. Pray for the injured to have an easy and speedy recovery.
