Here is my speech outside UNICEF’s Toronto office after they refused to meet with the families of the kidnapped Israeli children. The UN has failed. It is a corrupt immoral organization that exists to maintain the false narratives of the progressive Left. #BringThemHome

Like all Israelis + Jews the world over @simonwiesenthal is relieved that the first of the innocent hostages are scheduled to be released by #HamasTerrorists in exchange for five-day ceasefire. If initial reports play out, we pray for the safety of all surviving hostages. 1/4
