And nowwwww, it’s springtime for Trump and the GOP. (Oooh, it’s springtime!) Winter for all of America.
In a glorious comeback that made us wish “The Producers” was still on Broadway, Matthew Broderick and Nathan Lane revived their roles of conniving producers Max Bialystok and Leo Bloom for Jimmy Kimmel’s annual post-Oscars show. Except this time, what the duo want to tank is an election helmed by Donald Trump instead of a show.
Helped by Cloris Leachman who supplies the “checkie,” Bloom and Bialystok are floored when Trump’s candidacy takes off.
Mel Brooks would be proud. Watch the hilarious video here:
"Why I became the Forward’s Editor-in-Chief"
You are surely a friend of the Forward if you’re reading this. And so it’s with excitement and awe — of all that the Forward is, was, and will be — that I introduce myself to you as the Forward’s newest editor-in-chief.
And what a time to step into the leadership of this storied Jewish institution! For 129 years, the Forward has shaped and told the American Jewish story. I’m stepping in at an intense time for Jews the world over. We urgently need the Forward’s courageous, unflinching journalism — not only as a source of reliable information, but to provide inspiration, healing and hope.
Support our mission to tell the Jewish story fully and fairly.
