Kavanaugh has tutored at Washington Jesuit Academy, where he sits on the board of directors, and at J.O. Wilson Elementary School, according to the D.C. Circuit Court of Appeals website. He went to high school at Georgetown Prep which Justice Neil Gorsuch also attended and is a graduate of Yale College and Yale Law School.
Trump chose a judge reared in Washingtons finest Jesuit institutions, including Georgetown Preparatory School. Kavanaugh, who serves on the U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit, is active in several Catholic organizations in the area. Trump pointed out that he coaches his daughters Catholic Youth Organization basketball team.
The Scofield prots have been beaten down, and they're loving it.
Catholics don't even know what "Scofield Prots" are. We simply have our set of interests and beliefs, and we want to see them enacted as the law of the land. Nothing more, nothing less.
We know, given that we're a minority, that we cannot get our way on everything, so we compromise as necessary in order to get, in the main, what it is that we most care about.
This isn't different from any other political grouping, like yours for instance.
Per the US Constitution: "Treason against the United States, shall consist only in levying war against them, or in adhering to their enemies, giving them aid and comfort."
Wanting to see my moral beliefs become the law of the land is not levying war against the United States or adhering to their enemies.
So, your accusation of treason is un-American. You want to shoot me because you don't agree with my politics. That's not American at all. But hey, you do you.
Anyone that wants their religious beliefs enacted as our as our law of the land, ---- should be shot for treason..
Per the US Constitution: "Treason against the United States, shall consist only in levying war against them, or in adhering to their enemies, giving them aid and comfort."
Wanting to see my moral beliefs become the law of the land is not levying war against the United States or adhering to their enemies.
"Treason against the United States, shall consist in -- to their enemies, giving them aid and comfort."
You want to see your RELlGIOUS beliefs become the law of the land, ---- this is giving our enemies aid and comfort, --- by violating the first amendment to the Constitution...
Our enemies want to see our Constitution infringed and violated. ---- As does your proposal...

More word redefinitions, I see.
Jesuit Academy, J.O. School, Georgetown Prep. Jesuit, Jesuit, and Jesuit.
Dang right he's Jesuit! What's your redefinition of Jesuit, Mark of the Beast Jesuit tattoo on his forehead?
A clergyman who has taken his vows and joined the Society of Jesus. That's a Jesuit.
Lay people may agree with the Jesuits, but they're not ordained clergy and they're not themselves Jesuits.
"Catholic" is not synonymous with "Jesuit", or vice versa.
A Jesuit is not a Franciscan, and neither is a Domincan. All three are clergy alone. All three are Catholic. And none of them are synonymous with Catholic. If you haven't taken holy orders and vows, you're not a Jesuit by definition.
That's how I define it - which is to say, that is what the word actually MEANS.
The other point is that you think Jesuits are very bad, but I think Jesuits are very good. You use the term as a term of alarm and accusation. I use the term to recognize some of the brightest and most capable clergy in the Catholic religion.
To distill it down: You - Jesuit BAAAAD. Me - Jesuit GOOD.
