President Donald Trump has pardoned former U.S. Rep. Michael Grimm, a New York Republican who resigned from Congress after a tax fraud conviction.

Newly uncovered online messages have shed light on the deeply troubling mindset of Elias Rodriguez, the pro-Palestinian gunman who murdered two Israeli embassy staffers outside the Capital Jewish Museum last week. Rodriguez, a 31-year-old Chicago resident, was arrested at the scene of the May 21 attack, which claimed the lives of Yaron Lischinsky and Sarah Milgrim — two young diplomats who were leaving a reception when gunfire erupted.

In a firm response to the growing tensions over the draft law and the recent uptick in arrests of yeshiva students who failed to report to IDF recruitment centers, Slabodka rosh yeshiva Rav Dov Landau has issued a clear directive: any yeshiva student who has received a draft notice is forbidden to leave the country without explicit permission.

A healthy marriage is the bedrock of a stable home, and stable homes are the bedrock of a healthy society. Research consistently shows that children thrive in environments where parents have positive, stable relationships, while exposure to marital conflict can lead to various emotional and behavioral challenges, such as increased anxiety and depression and impaired social and academic functioning.
