Sefer Chasidim (#1170) Why do spirits harm on Shabbat Eve? Because the spirits are not in Gehenim. This is referring to the spirits of the wicked, when they die, are the harmful demons, like all the descendants of Cain who died, their souls became harmful demons and they were given permission to harm those who violate the Sabbath. Or if they were upset on Shabbos. Or even if they are not enjoying it.

House Democrats release Epstein email that claimed Trump ‘spent hours’ with victim

Emails released by Democrats show convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein telling associates in the 2010s that “of course” President Trump knew about his relationships with underage girls.
In the short exchanges, Epstein says Trump “spent hours at my house,” while another says the president “knew about the girls.”
Trump sued The Wall Street Journal for defamation after the outlet published a story this year alleging Trump wrote a birthday note to Epstein in 2003 referencing their relationship.
Jeffrey Epstein: Trump ‘asked Ghislaine Maxwell to stop’ recruiting girls from Mar-a-Lago spa
Convicted pedophile Jeffrey Epstein acknowledged in a bitter email months before his death that Donald Trump told Epstein accomplice Ghislaine Maxwell to stop plucking young girls from the spa at Trump’s Mar-a-Lago resort to groom and sexually abuse.
Nearly eight years earlier, on April 2, 2011, Epstein described Trump in an email to Maxwell, who is serving a 20-year prison sentence for sex trafficking conspiracy and other charges, as “that dog that hasn’t barked,” adding that an unnamed victim “spent hours at my house with him [and] he has never once been mentioned.”
A bipartisan petition to force a House vote on a measure compelling the Justice Department to release its Epstein files was expected to receive the required 218th signature later Wednesday, when Rep.-elect Adelita Grijalva is sworn in by Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.).

Old Age is good?
Zohar Chodesh Bereishis #861) If there is an old person in the house it is a good omen for the house Similarly if there is a tzadik in the generation it is a good omen for the world
Archin (19a) Ḥizkiya said that people say a popular saying: If there is an elderly man in the home, there is a burden in the home, as he does not help with anything; if there is an elderly woman in the home, there is a treasure in the home,as she assists with various domestic labors.

Long-term use of melatonin supplements to support sleep may have negative health effects
A review of 5 years of health records for more than 130,000 adults with insomnia who had used melatonin for at least a year found they were more likely to be diagnosed with heart failure, require hospitalization for the condition or die from any cause.
The association between melatonin and increased risk of heart failure or death found in this study, which cannot prove a cause-and-effect relationship, raises safety concerns about the use of melatonin, which is widely available, and may warrant more research on melatonin to assess its cardiovascular safety, researchers said.
Move to ‘Undo’ SNAP Payments Blocked As Judge Rebukes ‘Vindictive Games’
A federal judge has said she will continue to block the Trump administration from enforcing a directive ordering states to reduce or revoke full SNAP benefits.
The administration is now attempting to retract hundreds of millions of dollars in food assistance benefits distributed after the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) - which pays for the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) - informed states last week that it was "working to implement" benefits in compliance with a court order.
"It would seem to me that if the agency is trying to comply with the law and with the executive branch's preferences on policies, a piece of that wouldn't be trying to play vindictive games with the states. That's not part of it," said U.S. District Judge Indira Talwani on Monday, according to NBC News.
Donald Trump Stimulus Check Update Given By Scott Bessent

Erica York, vice president of federal tax policy at the Tax Foundation, said that excluding those with incomes over $100,000 would mean 150 million adults still qualify for the rebates, putting the total cost at $300 billion. This compares to the roughly $217 billion the Tax Foundation estimates current tariffs will raise in 2026.
"The math gets worse accounting for the full budgetary impact of tariffs: a dollar of tariff revenue offsets about 24 cents of income and payroll tax revenue," she wrote. "Adjusting for that, tariffs have raised $90 billion of net revenues compared to Trump’s proposed $300 billion rebate."
York added that the rebate scheme "would increase the national debt."
Whistleblower docs show Maxwell seeking commutation, receiving ‘concierge-style treatment’ in prison
https://thehill.com/homenews/5597856-maxwell-prison-perks-whistleblower/?tbref=hp
The information provided to the committee alleges a series of remarkable steps taken to accommodate Maxwell after she was quietly transferred to a medium-security facility in Texas shortly after her meeting with Blanche.
According to the documents, Maxwell has been receiving customized meals that have been personally delivered to her cell.
They also describe unusual treatment of her guests, with Democrats relaying the creation of a “special cordoned off area for visitors to arrive, as well as an assortment of snacks and refreshments for her guests.” Her guests have also been allowed to bring computers, which is something not typically allowed for visitors.
