Your tagline is wrong. You are quoting 2 Thess. 2:15.
2 Thess. 3:6: “Now we command you, brethren, in the name of Jesus Christ, that he withdraw yourselves from every brother that walketh disorderly, and not after the TRADITION which he RECEIVED of US.”
Who is the “US” to whom he is referring?
All you need to do is read the opening salutation. Paul refers to “Paul, and Silvanus, and Timotheus.”

I have yet to have ANY Catholic answer these questions.....

Just what are those traditions Paul was referring to that he handed down that we are to keep that were not included in Scripture?

How do you know?

How do you know they’re from the apostles, Paul in particular?

How do you know they’ve been passed down faithfully?

What is your source for verifying all of the above?

Please provide the sources for verification purposes.

Thank you for that correction. You're right, it's 2 Thess. 2:15.

Warm aprpeciation to you, Paul, Sylvanus and Timotheus.
