MTG Marks Yom Kippur With Image Of Menorah

September 24, 2023 Republicans, Trump cultists

In a now deleted message to X on Sunday, Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, R-Ga. fumbled a Yom Kippur greeting by using incorrect imagery associated with an entirely different Jewish holiday. In her original message, she wrote, “To all those preparing for the solemn day of Yom Kippur, I wish you a meaningful fast. Gamar Chasima Tova!”

And along with it, an image of a Shofar in front of a Chanukah menorah, which many were quick to point out was incorrect. Deleting that, she fired off a new message to social media, minus the imagery. Back in March, she was similarly called out for writing, “Happy Purim! May it bring light, happiness, joy, and honor!”

Ms. Jewish Space Lasers got her Jewish holidays mixed up (that is a Chanukah menorah). Wildly offensive — especially on the holiest day of the year in Judaism. pic.twitter.com/Wa0WcXitKI

That’s a picture for Chanukah. Different Jewish Holiday. Yom Kippur is where you atone for your sins. Lord knows you will be very busy. https://t.co/gFJHO0MD07

Here we have @RepMTG, the antisemitic genius who screamed about Jewish space lasers, offering us a Hanukkah menorah for Yom Kippur. pic.twitter.com/cVYZ1cHo9j
