- Baby Judah meeting the boss 🇺🇸 Hoping my son grows up to be as kind, empathetic, and caring as @POTUS.
- NSC’s John Kirby: "Israel isn’t trying to wipe the Palestinian people off the map. Israel isn’t trying to wipe Gaza off the map. Israel is trying to defend itself against a genocidal terrorist threat. So if we’re going to start using that word, Fine. Let’s use it appropriately.”
00:00 - Saul Dreier, 98-year-old founder of the Holocaust Survivor Band, had a lifelong dream to play at the @WhiteHouse. He fulfilled that dream this week. After meeting @POTUS at the Hanukkah reception, he rocked it on drums with the President’s Own Marine Band. Keep Rockin’ Saul!
00:00 - The @SecondGentleman leads in a candle-lighting ceremony at @AuschwitzMuseum’s International Monument to the Victims of Fascism. He’s joined by @StateSEAS, @StateSEHI, and @USAmbPoland. Today marks 78 years since Auschwitz was liberated.
00:00 - During his press conference with @ZelenskyyUa, @POTUS invokes the 4th night of Hanukkah when we "honor the small band of warriors fighting for their values and their freedom against the much larger foe. And how they endured and how they overcame." The story of survival.
00:00 - If you watch one thing today it should be this. “What’s harsh is the way Hamas is using people as human shields. What’s harsh is taking a couple of hundred hostages + leaving families and anxious, waiting and worrying to figure out where their loved ones are,” NSC’s John Kirby.
00:00 - Getting chocked up speaking of his own family’s history with antisemitism, Attorney General Merrick Garland made a promise to the Jewish community that @TheJusticeDept will do “everything in its power” to “secure the community’s safety” and “hold perpetrators accountable.”
00:00 - I had the opportunity to visit my Bubbie’s old apartment in Krakow. Her mother, sister, and brother were all sent to the Krakow Ghetto and later killed. You can see the traces of the mezuzah that was once affixed on the doorpost.
- Happy Presidents Day @POTUS Joe Biden! 🇺🇸 Thank you for inspiring us to be better public servants. We’re always cheering you on.
00:00 - A public servant like no other. Truly the best of us. NSC Spokesperson John Kirby reciting a prayer for the hostages at @IsraelinUSA’s Hanukkah reception. He ended with “Am Yisrael Chai.”
00:00 - .@WhiteHouse statement on protests at @Columbia: “Calls for violence and physical intimidation targeting Jewish students and the Jewish community are blatantly antisemitic, unconscionable, and dangerous –they have absolutely no place on any college campus, or anywhere in the US”
