What the Terrorists Could Not Take, Americans Are Giving Up
The Constitution Study with Host Paul Engel – It’s hard to believe it’s been 22 years. Then again, it seems many Americans have forgotten that 19 terrorists tried to destroy what made America great. Our freedom and the advantages it gives us were attacked on Sept. 11th, 2001, by terrorists from overseas. Today, our freedoms are under attack by our fellow citizens. When we think about attacks on our liberty, we often think about…

The Politicization of Public Health
The Constitution Study with Host Paul Engel – “If you haven’t got your health, you haven’t got anything.” These words from Count Rugen in the movie Princess Bride have merit.

Shame on Us: Failing To Learn From Past Elections
The Constitution Study with Host Paul Engel – Fool me once. Shame on you. Fool me twice. Shame on me. Fool me three times… It appears the American people have not learned from either the 2020 or 2022 elections. I still hear people claim there was no significant voter fraud during either election; evidence be damned.

The Woke Shall Destroy the Earth
The Constitution Study with Host Paul Engel – I’m sure you’re familiar with the saying, “The meek shall inherit the earth.” You may recognize it from the Psalms or Jesus’ Sermon on the Mount. But today, we are not talking about the meek but the woke. I am not entirely sure who came up with the term “woke,” but according to Merriam-Webster’s Dictionary Online, “woke” means: “Aware of and actively attentive to important facts and…

Totalitarianism or Kleptocracy?
The Constitution Study with Host Paul Engel – What happens when the people are no longer the ones elected by the representatives? Where does that leave the republic that the Framers of the Constitution left us? It leaves us somewhere between totalitarianism and a kleptocracy. To be blunt, I’m not sure which is worse.

Judicial Revenge
The Constitution Study with Host Paul Engel – Noah Webster said, “An independent judiciary is the firmest bulwark of freedom.” But what happens when that bulwark is used to destroy our freedom? When courts of law are used as courts of revenge? Can liberty survive in such a climate?
