Finished and occupied in 1935, the design of the Supreme Court draws upon the classical Roman temple form, making it a definitive example of neoclassical architecture.
Sarah E. Pitlyk, a former law clerk to Judge Brett Kavanaugh, and special counsel for the Thomas More Society, a not-for-profit, national public-interest law firm dedicated to restoring respect in law for life, family, and religious liberty, explains at National Review why Judge Brett Kavanaugh would be President Trump’s best choice for his Supreme Court nomination. She writes (abridged):
Judge Kavanaugh has a clear, consistent, and rock-solid record on the issues that matter most to social conservatives. He has repeatedly taken conservative stands and fearlessly defended his textualist and originalist philosophy. And as I can say with confidence from having worked with him closely in chambers for a year — and benefited from his mentorship for a decade — he is a good and decent man who will never waver in the face of pressure from any quarters. He is exactly what constitutional conservatives should want on the Supreme Court.
Social conservatives understand the stakes in filling the Supreme Court vacancy created by Justice Anthony Kennedy’s retirement. President Trump, who has excelled in his judicial nominations to date, has the opportunity to transform the Court for a generation to come.
This is no time for a gamble. As social conservatives know from bitter experience, a judicial record is the best — really, the only — accurate predictor of a prospective justice’s philosophy on the issues that matter most to us.
On the vital issues of protecting religious liberty and enforcing restrictions on abortion, no court-of-appeals judge in the nation has a stronger, more consistent record than Judge Brett Kavanaugh. On these issues, as on so many others, he has fought for his principles and stood firm against pressure. He would do the same on the Supreme Court.
