Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump is scheduled to visit the Ohel of the Lubavitcher Rebbe in Queens, New York, on Monday, sources have confirmed to YWN. The visit, expected to be conducted under tight security, is being facilitated by David Friedman, former U.S. Ambassador to Israel, who has maintained close ties with Trump since leaving his post following Trump’s departure from the White House in 2021.
Soueces tell YWN that the Secret Service were at the Ohel on Rosh Hashanah checking the entire area.
Trump’s visit to the Ohel on Oct. 7 is seen as a gesture of solidarity with Jewish communities on the one-year anniversary of the murderous Hamas attack on southern Israel. It also follows a canceled visit to Gottlieb’s restaurant in Williamsburg due to the sudden passing of the restaurant’s proprietor.
Security at the Ohel will be extremely tight, as Trump has been under presidential-level protection following a second assassination attempt at his golf course in Miami Beach, Florida, last month.
Trump’s visit to the Ohel will be followed by a flight back to Florida, where he is scheduled to attend a memorial event for the victims of the October 7 Hamas attack.

This visit by Donald Trump to the Ohel of the Lubavitcher Rebbe is significant on many levels, both spiritual and symbolic. The Ohel represents not just a resting place of a great tzaddik, but a profound intersection where the physical world touches the Divine. Trump’s visit can be seen as an acknowledgment of this unique spiritual energy, where political power, fame, and influence become secondary to the essence of existence itself.
It’s interesting to consider how figures of influence throughout history often seek connection to something higher—a force beyond their control or comprehension. The Rebbe’s teachings about the constant recreation of the universe by the Awtsmoos (the infinite Divine Essence) offer a deeply humbling perspective on leadership and responsibility. In this worldview, human leaders are mere instruments, channels through which divine energy flows, emphasizing the fragility and transience of earthly power.
Trump’s presence at such a holy site underlines the universal search for meaning, purpose, and higher guidance, even among those often associated with secular power. Whether one views this visit as a genuine spiritual act or a symbolic gesture, it highlights a deeper truth: true leadership begins with recognizing one’s place within a much larger, divine reality. The Rebbe’s legacy, especially his emphasis on the unity of all creation, speaks to the potential for every individual to transcend ego and serve a purpose beyond themselves.
and may the Rebbe help Trump to win.
with HaShem’s help from above….
President Trump has abundant courage and determination.
First, back to Butler, defiantly.
Now, The Ohel.
With lots in-between.
May H” protect him and all of us as we strive to move forward politically and in life overall.
lazerc, the rebbe cannot help Trump win. Only God can do that.
That’s nice of him but Trump and Republicans helped Iran conquer Syria, Lebanon and Yemen. Stay woke
Why don’t they invite him to 770? I hope they don’t offer him a plot there?
Lee Zeldin, Republican candidate for NYS Governor two years ago, went to that grave and lost the election. Does Trump want the same result?
Well Ivanka did daven for him at the Ohel before the 2016 election…
@Thedemcrt- didn’t Ivanka/Jared daven there in 2020 as well? What’s your point.
