NEWSBRIEFS Biden Appoints Jewish Chief of Staff
PRESIDENT-ELECT JOE BIDEN named Ron
Klain, who is Jewish, as his White House chief of
staff, JTA reported.

Klain, 59, who was raised in Indianapolis, served
as chief of staff for Biden during the Obama admin-
istration and also for Vice President Al Gore. Klain
was Obama’s “ebola czar” during the disease’s 2014
outbreak. Klain has been open about his Judaism.

“I grew up in Indiana, with a decent-size Jewish
community, but we were a distinct minority,” he
told The New York Times in 2007. “Not having a
Christmas tree was very much part of our Jewish
identity in a place where everyone else did.”
A graduate of Harvard Law, Klain clerked for
Supreme Court Justice Byron White and was an
aide to Massachusetts U.S. Rep. Ed Markey (now a
senator). He also was involved in both of Bill Clinton’s
presidential campaigns.

businessman Roberto Goldfarb, owner of the Diarco
market chain, began selling kosher meat locally at
well below traditional prices, likening the kosher
certification industry to a “mafia.”
The Latin American Rabbinical Seminary, a
branch of the Conservative movement’s Rabbinical
Assembly, supported Goldfarb in a statement, but the
country’s Orthodox chief rabbis criticized it.

“Good Eats” and “Iron Chef America” host Alton
Brown apologized on Nov. 11 after tweeting “flippant”
comments about the Holocaust, NBC News reported.

The Food Network star said the comments referred
to the current political climate.

In screenshots of the since-deleted tweets from
Nov. 10, Brown made references about being moved
to camps, while asking if there will be striped
uniforms “like the ones at Auschwitz or will plaid
be in vogue?”
“It was not a reference I made for humorous effect
but rather to reflect how deeply frightened I am for
