Just curious: do the Kushners observe Christmas?

[question everything]

Supposedly they are Orthodox, certainly not like Lieberman who, at least, kept the Sabbath and ate Kosher food. (I think)

1. pretty sure they keep kosher

She converted so they would not celebrate Christmas.

They might be joining the same DC shul Lieberman used to go to, they are "shopping around" according to the Times of Israel.

2. I read he was/is very observant,

and that she's followed him. Surely they don't 'observe' Christmas, but they (and anyone) should respect that others do.

3. If only they would follow the ethical tenets.

4. They are allegedly MO.

Her conversion was under Orthodox auspices, I assume under the RCA.

What irritates me is some conversions have been overturned if they were judged to be for the wrong reasons or the beis din was questionable or the sponsoring rabbi was questionable. AFAIK a conversion can be questioned by a beis din if the convert suddenly is not keeping the big 3 (kashrut, shabbos, Taharat HaMishpacha) or the convert is pretty much living their former life even after conversion.

Everything about Ivanka Trump in questionable but I'll bet everything her conversion is never questioned. Even if she put up a tree and posed next to it and a nativity scene.
