Perhaps most important, Trump used the nomination of Neil Gorsuch to demonstrate to Kennedy how his own legacy could be preserved. He ensured that Kennedy was involved in swearing in Gorsuch, who used to clerk for him—something that gave Kennedy “virtually parental pride,” Turley told me, describing Kennedy’s obvious delight at the ceremony’s after-party. After Gorsuch was sworn in, the White House made sure to float two more potential Supreme Court candidates—Judge Brett Kavanaugh of the United States Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit and Judge Raymond Kethledge—both of whom also clerked for Kennedy.
Kavanaugh and Gorsuch Both Went to the Same Elite Prep School
****** The above is what makes me unsettled about Kavansugh. And I am not understanding the Jesuit religious aspect I know Catholic, what is Jesuit part...
Have to run BBL...
The Jesuits are a teaching order founded by St Ignatius Loyola, who, while recovering from a war wound decided to become a Soldier for Christ. He founded the Society of Jesus and gained many followers.
For several hundred years they were a solid group of men dedicated to teaching and missionary work, that is until about 50 years ago. They seem to have lost their charism. A few of the older guys are solid, some are saintly, then there is a lost generation. The much younger guys are better. All are highly educated, you will never meet a stupid Jesuit. My teacher had seven languages and two doctorates.
The fact that Judge K goes to church and actually follows Jesus means that they did not corrupt his faith at the prep school.
Thanks.
Since Trump has advisors who get info on SCOTUS picks, and the Heritage Foundation in particular, I trust his picks.
The Jesuit part is concerning alright. Still gonna trust Trump and Kavanaugh’s better parts to rule, however. Hoping no contrary evidence rears it’s ugly head.
