She is an extremist and holds radical views that will cause peril to women in the USA. Don't expect Trump to withdraw her nomination because he believes women are not equal partners in marriage. He believes his wife has to submit to his will. That is very obvious.
People of Praise amount to what is considered a CLUB for Christians. I would like to know why she belonged to this group for so long. This type of club is my pet peeve because they are not religiously sanctioned. The Roman Catholic Church has parishes organized by the leadership of a Bishop. There are no clubs within the Catholic Church, there are churches and the social groups that exist within that church.
All these crackpot groups try to have political clout in carrying on about strict religious standards that are supposed to be exhibited by elected officials. It is nonsense and only matters because of enough amounts of money to assist in elections like the Federalist Society and/or because citizens believe these groups are important to their worship.
When a so-called religious group comes out to leverage the negative opinion of people running for office, they are doing so without any authority. They are nothing more than clubs that like to follow religious tradition in their meetings and priorities.
The government of the United States of America is not affiliated with a religious organization. The Evangelicals have a huge covet of the USA, but, they are not an official religion. Where Barrett gets it wrong is that her personal view, both about her judicial review (professional) and personally of religious bias should matter within the freedoms of the USA Constitution.
I don't think so.
She will no doubt seek to hide that predilection in words in any document she produces within the jurisdiction of the Supreme Court. Monitoring her is going to be interesting, but, if she continues to seek to undermine THE RULE OF THE MAJORITY it will be caught. It is no joke to attempt within a federal authority to undermine the USA Constitution.

Former members have said the group’s leaders teach that wives must submit to the will of their husbands.
A spokesman for the organization has declined to say whether the judge and her husband, Jesse Barrett, are members....
