Larry David’s show “Curb Your Enthusiasm” is doing pretty, pretty, pretty good.

In the 76th annual Emmy Awards, the show—which often draws on Jewish content in its outlandish gags—is a nominee for outstanding casting for a comedy series, outstanding lead actor in a comedy series (Larry David), outstanding comedy series and outstanding sound mixing for a comedy or drama series (half-hour) and animation.

Ebon Moss-Bachrach (“The Bear”) and Paul Rudd (“Only Murders in the Building”), both of whom are Jewish, are also up for Emmys, as are comedians Seth Meyers, who is of Jewish ancestry, and Jon Stewart, who is Jewish.

There was never a question whether bar and bat mitzvahs were going to continue, says Rabbi Marla Hornsten at Temple Israel, despite the havoc that had teachers and children evacuate the building.
“We will not rest in the mission to stop the spread of radical Islam,” Texas Gov. Greg Abbott stated.
The panel conducts research on antisemitic activity and works with public and private entities on statewide initiatives on Holocaust and genocide education.
“If it’s something that families are attuned to, then I think it may be a good way to engage the kids on that level,” Rabbi Steven Burg, of Aish, told JNS.
“I was a little surprised at the U.K. to be honest with you,” U.S. President Donald Trump told reporters at the White House. “They should have acted a lot faster.”
“It is imperative that university administrators rise to the occasion to take a firm stand against antisemitism and racial violence,” Sen. Bill Cassidy wrote.
