What happens when public vs. private agendas collide?
The Constitution Study with Host Paul Engel – Many of the restrictions found in the Constitution of the United States only apply to public entities, but not all. Take the lawsuit Donald Trump filed against 60 Minutes, CBS News, and their parent company, Paramount. Trump didn’t claim that they didn’t have the right to edit their interview with then-candidate Kamala Harris, but that they did so interfere with…

Garbage in and garbage out! Raising our standards…
The Constitution Study with Host Paul Engel – I don’t know where some of the crazy ideas I hear people support come from. It seems the ability to think critically, to analyze what we read, even to verify what we hear, is in critical condition today.

Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard is in the spotlight over the Russia hoax, and it’s easy to cheer when political opponents are exposed. But I remind myself: without prioritizing truth, any call for consequences is just revenge…

What happened to… limited and enumerated powers?
The Constitution Study with Host Paul Engel – The Constitution of the United States created a government with limited and enumerated powers, at least according to the Tenth Amendment. Yet those limits seem to have no effect on government today, regardless of which political party is in power. Does the federal government have the authority to make a de facto national ID, where every state and federal actor has…

Dealing with opposition in a divided America
The Constitution Study with Host Paul Engel – Americans face growing challenges in disagreeing without becoming disagreeable. From political violence to families avoiding each other over opposing views, tensions run high. I explore whether debates, lawsuits, and focusing on facts can bridge these divides. Finding common ground seems harder than ever, but honest conversation and respect remain essential for any hope of moving…

Have we survived an American coup?
The Constitution Study with Host Paul Engel – A coup d’état is defined as “The sudden overthrow of a government by a usually small group of persons in or previously in positions of authority.” Recent news events suggest not only that there was an attempted coup in this country, but several of them. DNI Tulsi Gabbard not only accuses former Pres Obama and members of his administration of a coup…
