Justice Samuel Alito also attended but did not speak.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Over decades, the Federalist Society has helped propel a pipeline of conservative lawyers from law schools to powerful judgeships, and the group\u2019s members have helped usher in the Supreme Court\u2019s current 6-3 conservative majority.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The group\u2019s annual convention has struck an elated tone this year, with attendees receiving coins at an earlier session commemorating recent blockbuster conservative victories at the Supreme Court.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Speaking to the packed crowd at the Washington Hilton, both Kavanaugh and Barrett were asked to reflect on the criticism and threats they\u2019ve received since joining the bench.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cTo all the students here: Don\u2019t lose civility, don\u2019t lose civility,\u201d Kavanaugh said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Sign up for the Morning Report<br>The latest in politics and policy.

When a court blocked the president\u2019s sweeping tariffs this spring, Trump called Leo a \u201csleazebag\u201d and said the Federalist Society had given him \u201cbad advice.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Thursday\u2019s gala came one day after the tariff case was heard by the Supreme Court.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Justice Amy Coney Barrett had a simple message for conservative women in law school attending the Federalist Society\u2019s gala Thursday night: don\u2019t be afraid to defy stereotypes. \u201cBeing a conservative woman in a law school, particularly, takes a lot of courage and independence and in many ways shows more feminism than just falling into some [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":6,"featured_media":13605,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[5],"tags":[3760,3759],"class_list":["post-13604","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-international","tag-nzm","tag-wfnlztkpnvsu"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v19.0 -
