The Constitution Study with Host Paul Engel – America turns to the courtroom for nearly every conflict, but the consequences reach far beyond lawyers and judges. From Supreme Court cases on surveillance, gun rights, and sports to the American Bar Association’s grip on legal education, a deeply litigious culture reshapes everyday life and raises urgent constitutional questions for the nation...

The Constitution Study with Host Paul Engel – What can you do when you see society crumbling around you? Because that is what we are seeing in Minneapolis, and sadly, it is not a unique story. This is democracy in action, mob rule, emotions, and memes over facts and reason. And while you may not live in Minneapolis, I ask you, what’s to stop this insanity from coming to your...

The Constitution Study with Host Paul Engel – Minneapolis has been going crazy lately, first with reports of rampant fraud in the Somali community, then in the State government as well. Now, between the attempts to enforce federal immigration law and those attempting to prevent such enforcement, violence and threats have become the norm. Is this the result of a fascist government crackdown...

The Constitution Study with Host Paul Engel – Anger simmers across politics, law, and culture as public officials evade accountability, defy common sense, and bend rules for the powerful. From impeachment efforts to courtroom absurdities and unchecked insider trading, the question remains whether justified outrage leads to action. Freedom survives only when citizens are brave enough to demand responsibility from those in power...

The Constitution Study with Host Paul Engel – Does Donald Trump have the legal authority to denaturalize citizens for committing fraud? And what about members of Congress? Do they have the legal authority to simply walk into a detention center under the auspices of “oversight”? What about states passing laws to enforce Title IX’s prohibition on discrimination based on sex?...

The Constitution Study with Host Paul Engel – Many Americans sense the nation is unraveling as leaders bypass the law, courts overreach, debt explodes, and trust in institutions erodes. From unchecked executive power to flawed artificial intelligence, the country drifts toward chaos unless citizens reclaim responsibility, courage, and the will to live free again...

The Constitution Study with Host Paul Engel – Governor Hochul of New York is promising to make child care cheaper by taking the money from you to subsidize the child care of others. Then there’s Trump. He wants to ban institutional investment in single-family homes. Not only is that not constitutional, but based on the size of said institutional investment, it would probably raise prices, not lower...

The Constitution Study with Host Paul Engel – Why did the agents get out of their car to approach the woman? Why did they have their sidearms drawn, an obvious threat? Why did they believe she was armed and dangerous? And what responsibility did the agent who was impacted by the car have, since he appears to have been walking in front of a moving vehicle?

The Constitution Study with Host Paul Engel – Most people don’t think of it this way, but when you depend on government, you not only sell your freedom, but also enslave your rights to those who wish to control you. We call ourselves the land of the free, but how can we be free when we are dependent on the government to live our lives? We will only be the land of the free if we are the...

The Constitution Study with Host Paul Engel – Every so often, you’ll read or hear something and wish it just wasn’t true. Sadly, those things are frequently true, which leaves us with a choice. We can check the evidence to see if those things are true, or just bury our heads in the sand and hope it doesn’t bite us in the backside. Like the fact that the largest city in the union...
