Hasidic Yeshivas

Speaker of the House Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) made one of his first trips as leader to a Hasidic town in New York — to tout the Republican policy of parents’ rights in education and meet with the local head rabbi — amid an assault on Orthodox Jewish communities by the state government.

The New York Times announced Monday that it won a George Polk Award for its “news report” about Hasidic Yeshivas, which was exposed to have been part of a political operation targeting the religious group, through an investigation published by Breitbart.
