You had Kamala Harris, when she was a senator on the Judiciary Committee, going after and attacking and ultimately opposing a nominee for a judgeship specifically because he was an observant and devout Catholic and a member of the Knights of Columbus. They did the same thing with Amy Coney Barrett, who's now in the Supreme Court with now since passed away. But Senator Dianne Feinstein warned against her when she went for confirmation before the same Judiciary Committee, saying, you know, I'm concerned. The dogma lives loudly within you. All of these things going against our Constitution, which says there shall be no religious to serve in any public office, period. (04:42–05:01)
