The Constitution Study with Host Paul Engel – An 18th-century French princess is known for saying "Qu'ils mangent de la brioche.” In English, “Let them eat cake.” This phrase has become part of our vernacular, showing a person with utter disregard for the people they claim to rule. In America, we have politicians, bureaucrats, and pundits who often show an utter disregard for the...

The Constitution Study with Host Paul Engel – Unique in world history, the Constitution of the United States not only established what we now call the federal government, but gives We the People tools to both defend and assert our rights.

The Constitution Study with Host Paul Engel – Ever since he took office, Donald Trump and his administration have been trying to meddle in the state voter registration system.

The Constitution Study with Host Paul Engel – Are our governments of, by, and for the people, as Abraham Lincoln claimed in his Gettysburg Address? Or have our governments devolved into bribery and intimidation? I think you’ll find much more of the latter than the former. Another Congressional committee is using subpoenas to try to intimidate a citizen into giving up their rights to...

The Constitution Study with Host Paul Engel – Does your right to free speech include the right to interrupt a gathering? What if it was a church service? What about your right to privacy, or your right to keep and bear arms? Are there constitutional limitations on those rights? What about your right to control the upbringing of your children?
