Investigating the obscure

We live in an age of information. In the sea of news and opinions, there are small and often missed events that change our lives forever. These obscure events should be recognized.

For example, in the Supreme Court case of Donald Trump against the state of Colorado, a group submitted an amicus brief that has received little attention. However, if the court were to follow what is suggested in this brief, they would be interfering not only in the 2024 election but every election for federal office from here on.

Then there’s the question of mask mandates. In a case before the Third Circuit Court of Appeals, the question of protesting mask mandates was decided not on the facts but on the fiction judges and attorneys have learned in law schools.

Finally, a Florida Grand Jury published an interim report showing just how much the American people were lied to regarding COVID-19, how dangerous it was, and how effective many of the public policies were.

Perhaps searching for these obscure news items is well worth the time those of us invest in doing so.

Like many of you, I am a product of the public schools. Like many of you I thought the Constitution was for lawyers and judges. One day I read the Constitution, and was surprised to find I didn't need a law degree to understand it. Then I read the Declaration of Independence, the Federalist Papers and even the Anti-Federalist Papers. As I learned more and more about our founding fathers and documents I saw how little we know about how our country was designed to work and how many people just didn't care. I started The Constitution Study to help those who also want read and study our Constitution.
