Now that Democratic elites have forced President Biden out of the presidential race and anointed Vice President Kamala Harris as their new candidate, it is worth reminding ourselves just how radical she is — especially when it comes to Catholics in public life.

In December 2019, Senator Harris confronted judicial nominee Brian Buescher about his membership . . . in the Knights of Columbus. The California senator asked Buescher pointedly if his membership in an “all-male society comprised primarily of Catholic men” that affirmed teachings of his church disqualified him from sitting on the federal bench.
