According to a tweet from Satmar Headquarters, the governor pledged to do everything to help the community. “G-d knows we will always work together when you need it,” she said

⁩Although the vast majority of orthodox Jewish leaders, both Chassidic and Litvish, endorsed Lee Zeldin, due to his staunch support of yeshiva curriculums, both Rebbe Aharon and the Skvere Rebbe endorsed Governor Hochul.

Community activist Ezra Friedlander tweeted: “This proves the endorsement will benefit the entire community! This evening Gov Hochul called the Satmar Rebbe thanking him profusely for his endorsement!”

Ezra, everyone is entitled to their opinion. Just like Bais shammai and Bais hillel or r’ Shimon and R’ Yehuda. The fact that Hochul called the Rebbe proves absolutely NOTHING. In four years we can look back and say ok she kept her promise to the rebbe let’s vote for her again or not. Many Rabbonim felt different than the Rebbe and you have no right to knock it. Especially you Ezra who gets paid by the candidates to promote them regardless of what the Rabbonim say.

A quote misattributed to Einstein, which doesn’t make it any less true: a definition of insanity is trying the same approach as before and expecting a different result.
After the completely discriminatory attacks against frum yiden during the corona by the NY Democratic Party, after the violent crime epidemic artificially created by the Democrats, after the Democratic obsession with controlling the yeshivos with the eventual goal of forcing the toeiva indoctrination, if you don’t get it now, you never will. You don’t possess a capacity for abstract thinking, and the only way you’ll get-it is when you’ll personally suffer. Unfortunately, by that point it would be too late to change anything.

why do they always say what they mean to say?

when he says, “this proves,” and “not just their own community,” he is trying to false flag it. These are THE exact issues here, that they did it for their OWN community, so of course, this guy has to go out out of his way to say that they did not do it for their own community.

like when someone says, ” honestly, (fill in the blank,)” they usually are not being totally honest.

or, “trust me,” it means they are not really sure themselves. This is psychology 101.

like when cnn said live on air, “trust us for your news and nobody else.”

and then he says it will benefit the entire community. What Community?

Her saying thank you to the satmer rebbeh does not mean proof! that she will support all jews. How does he even arrive at that conclusion? To not say thank you, would be a chutzpah.

Did the Satmar Rebbe use the opportunity of the phone call from Hochul to advocate for the Yeshivas and other frum concerns (like crime in Williamsburg) or was it a one way conversation only benefiting Hochul?

How despicable on the part of Satmar and Square to throw the rest of Klal Yisroel under the bus with this klafta. May be they will get wh at they bargained for with her, but the treachery and betrayal to the rest of us is beyond belief! What a chilul Hashem!

I would say best interests himself. You guys protest and make a chillul Hashem by the UN and every place that It doesn’t matter. When Klal Yisrael protests you sit idly. Hochul is your Rebbitzin and Netanyahu a Rasha. What’s the difference ?

Letting violent criminals out onto our streets with no bail: for the ENTIRE community. And hoping to lower the fine imposed for scamming the government out of hundreds of millions of dollars.
