🇺🇸✡️ INSIDE TODAY’S HISTORIC WHITE HOUSE MEETING WITH LEADING RABBONIM New details are emerging from today’s extraordinary meeting between prominent Rabbonim and senior White House officials — including a private meeting with President Donald Trump. 🎙️ Yossi Gestetner, who attended the meeting, shared several fascinating behind-the-scenes details with Kol Mevaser immediately afterward: 🔹 The two Satmar Rebbes warmly greeted one another and exchanged brachos upon arriving. Reb Ahron also wished his brother Reb Zalmen Leib Mazel Tov on a grandchild’s engagement finalized the night before. 🔹 Vice President JD Vance joined midway, personally greeting those around the table and praising the Jewish community’s emphasis on family and education. 🔹 Vance also asked about the different-colored bekitches worn by the Rebbes. 🔹 In another lighter moment, President Trump reportedly looked at the two Satmar Rebbes and asked if they were twins. They responded that they were brothers. 🔹 A major topic raised was the treatment and conditions of Jewish prisoners in federal and state prisons across the country. 🔹 Satmar Rebbe Reb Ahron later met privately with President Trump for roughly 10 minutes, together with Jared Kushner, before the other Rabbonim were brought into the Oval Office. 🔹 In the Oval Office, Reb Ahron gave President Trump a bracha, which Rabbi Segedin translated for the president. Congressman Mike Lawler and Jared Kushner were also among those present. An extraordinary glimpse behind the scenes of a historic gathering at the White House.
