Kismet? Yom Kippur

Link to tweet

It says right in the prayerbook that Yom Kippur is the day that God smites deceivers, wrongdoers, and criminals.

And when did jesus toss the money changers out of the temple?

Think Rosh Hashanah/New Year + RBG. According to Jewish tradition, a person who dies on Rosh Hashanah, is a tzaddik, a person of great righteousness. Baruch Dayan HaEmet.

Yom Kippur is the day of atonement...we ask G-d to forgive us our transgressions...and we starve doing it..however with the 4 years of Trump garbage we have had to endure I'd say this year, for a change, G-d has a lot to answer for...
