In an exclusive interview with the Washington Examiner, Rep. Randy Fine (R-FL) said an antisemitic radical, possibly inspired by Zohran Mamdani, attacked an elderly Israeli educator visiting New York City last night.

Rivi Ben Noon Glickstein, the wife of 58-year-old Rami Glickstein, told Jewish News Syndicate that the attacker shouted “What is your religion?” at the couple visiting the city from Israel, threw his kippah on the ground, spat on it, and proceeded to beat him repeatedly.
