The Constitution Study with Host Paul Engel – Have you heard the saying, “Be kind to your children; they will choose your nursing home”? It’s one of many idioms designed to show that the generation we are raising will one day take over from us, which means that training the next generation is one of the most important jobs someone can have. So who has been raising the latest generations? A little observation leads me to...

The Constitution Study with Host Paul Engel – For decades I’ve watched as our so-called judicial system has trampled the rights of the American citizen. However, there have been rays of hope for the last couple of years. Last year at the Supreme Court, it was the Dobbs and Boston flag decisions. This year we have the Harvard, 303 Creative, and USPS decisions. Let’s not forget the federal judge told Biden to stop illegally forgiving...

The Constitution Study with Host Paul Engel – Most of us are aware of the Hans Christian Anderson story entitled "The Emperor's New Clothes." In that story, the emperor is conned into paying an exorbitant sum for clothes that do not exist. Even the people go along with the con, that is, until a child points to the emperor and declares, "He's naked!" What most people in America do not know is just how naked the power of the...

The Constitution Study with Host Paul Engel – First, the was the January 6th Committee, then the Government Weaponization Committee. Now there are calls for a new “Church Committee.” All of these with the alleged goal of government oversight to clean up Washington, D.C. This has been done before. In 1975, Senator Frank Church had public hearings of the Senate Select Committee to Study Governmental Operations with...

The Constitution Study with Host Paul Engel – By now, I’m sure you’ve heard about the latest round of whistle-blowers to testify before Congress. The latest testimony reminds me of Albert Einstein’s definition of insanity, doing the same thing over and over again, expecting a different outcome. How many whistle-blowers have testified before Congress to nothing more than political grandstanding? How many have blown the whistle...

The Constitution Study with Host Paul Engel – We’ve spent years investing our trust in one newspaper or another, one news program or another. Now that we’re fully in the information age, we are able to easily access other sources of information. As these “alternate” sources are providing not just a different view of what’s going on, but evidence that...

The Constitution Study with Host Paul Engel – Sadly, the American people have been avoiding the painful truths for decades, and now we are dealing with the more painful infections we failed to deal with, or dealt with incorrectly in the past. Let’s take some time today and deal with a few painful truths. You may find it unpleasant, but just as the pain that drives us...

The Constitution Study with Host Paul Engel – Who is in control? That is a question we should all be asking ourselves. Because the answer to that question directly impacts who you are. Do you control your life? If so, then you live at liberty. If not, then you are dependent on others. The question of control is also a question of freedom. Are you free to live your life as you see fit, or are you enslaved to a system that tells you how to...

The Constitution Study with Host Paul Engel – Ethics, it’s one of those words we use all the time, but I’m not sure we use it properly. Or, as Inigo Montoya said, “You keep using that word. I do not think it means what you think it means.” Let’s face it, the members of the Senate who are calling for a code of ethics for the Supreme Court are a clear example of the pot calling the kettle black. Then you’ve got the almost political...

The Constitution Study with Host Paul Engel – I am frequently amazed when people who do not trust big corporations place all their trust in the federal government. Some think a federal agency, unlike a private corporation, would not bow to money or political pressure. Others act like simply bestowing someone with a government job and a government paycheck means they will “look out for the little guy” rather than...
