When Marxist ideologues have become completely acceptable to the Democrat Party but people of actual Christian faith are not qualified to hold judicial office it shows that the Democrat Part has completely lost its way.

Hey! “Fine Swine!”

Notre Dame University was, a NOTED and respected, Catholic University. It was at least, until you RATS corrupted the public’s views of it.

Perfectly in line with Democrat legacy. FDR put an anti-Catholic KKK klansman on the Suprem(acist) Court.

So, did any of DiFi’s GOP colleagues point out her Constitutional violation?

On Wiki, it says that although she was of Jewish descent, her family practiced the Russian Orthodox faith.

Feinstein enjoys seeing babies being torn from the wombs of young black woman . She calls it regulating the races . Jessie Jackson once referred to it as BLACK GENOCIDE !!!

This should have been Barret's answer.
