Top Catholic Magazine Rescinds Kavanaugh Endorsement

Citing credibility issues and the #MeToo movement, the influential Catholic Jesuit magazine America has rescinded its endorsement of its once-favorite Catholic son, Judge Brett Kavanaugh.

“There are many good reasons to support the nomination of a qualified judge who is committed to a textualist interpretation of the Constitution to the Supreme Court,” the magazine editors wrote after the hearings ended Thursday.

But they went on to say they don’t want to be associated with a man whose sexual-assault allegations may never be completely put to rest. “His nomination has also become a referendum on how to address allegations of sexual assault,” the Jesuits wrote. 

“We continue to support the nomination of judges according to such principles—but Judge Kavanaugh is not the only such nominee available.”
