A source for your direct quote of hirono's would be appreciated.

The National Review excerpt you posted is not a quote, they reworded the original quote so it would better fit the narrative they wished to convey. For instance, you can’t be bigoted toward the Knights of Columbus since it’s not a religion, but you can be bigoted toward Catholics. So they substituted one for the other.
Comparing Sharia law to the Catholic religion does not deserve an answer.
If you read the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution, the founding fathers specifically made a point that every religion had freedom to practice and worship in America. There are no exceptions listed. Muslims have the same rights as Catholics.
Mike is a member of... the Knights of Columbus" was your opinion
Yes, my opinion. Based on Tulsi’s early compliance with her father’s beliefs, and her later support for his political agenda. Her comments about Mazie struck me more like someone who took a personal offense to Hirono’s mention of the Knights, which Tulsi then defended with more zeal than I’d expect if it were simply about a stranger, Brian Buescher, someone she has nothing to do with, since she’s not even voting on his appointment.
Pay attention.
Be astonished.
Tell about it.
