Thanks, just curious why Arnold, Maria, the Kennedys, Pelosi, the Kerry's, and all prominent Catholics are not denied communion. Or called out publicly by their Cardinals.

And why Catholics in general that vote for Dims feel free to partake of communion in the Catholic Church?

And knowing that RG has campaigned vigorously for pro-life Republicans in my state and others since 98, (I have NEVER heard of any Democrats listed above campaigning for prolife pols), it all seems curious to me.

But of course you must have noticed that I'm not Catholic, and very ignorant on the rules.

Is this calling out of a pol in public to embarrass them, an order, rule or law in the Church?

As you can probably imagine, there is no short answer to this question. I plan to post a thread later today specifically on this topic and will ping you to it, okay?

The "rules" as you put it, all stem from Canon law which, in turn, is based on Scripture. Will include you in the ping to the thread and expect it will raise additional questions ;-) Not a problem. Ask away.
