Our rights, liberties, and freedoms are under attack in America. Where do we go, what do we do to protect them? For many Americans, the answer is government. We beg governments to pass laws to protect us, we sue in government courts, and when we don’t get justice, we do nothing. Does that describe a free citizen or a subject? When we beg to the government to protect us, we may get a redress of our grievance, or we may get further injury. History has shown that we tend to get a little bit of both.

Today, on The Constitution Study, I want to look at examples of governments infringing on the rights of their citizens while claiming to protect us. I’ll also look at examples of people petitioning the government for a redress of grievance, only to receive an unjust outcome. The bad outcomes are only important because we have abdicated our responsibilities as citizens of a republic and turned ourselves into subjects of an aristocratic class.

Paul Engel

Author and speaker Paul Engel has spent more than 20 years studying and teaching about both the Bible and the U.S. Constitution. That experience helps Paul explain difficult concepts in a way most people can understand. As one manager described, “Paul can take the most complex idea and explain it in a way my grandmother can understand.” Freely admitting that he “learned more about our Constitution from School House Rock (a Saturday morning cartoon) than in 12 years of school,” he says that anyone can be a constitutional scholar. Since 2014 I have been helping everyday Americans read and study the Constitution of their country and teaching the rising generation to be free. Using news and current events as a springboard, I explain the Constitution and encourage others to stand up and secure the blessings of liberty for themselves, their children, and the nation.

Assumptions kill! How the West was undone by good intentions

What happened to Europe and Canada? Their people assumed that electing leaders with good intentions would lead to good outcomes. But good intentions, built on false assumptions, still destroy nations. That problem doesn’t stop at their borders. Joe Biden and Kamala Harris have tried to implement those same policies here. And now we have Pete Buttigieg, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, and a host of others making the same…

A government of the state, by the state, and for the state

The Constitution is under attack by leftist ideologues who are trying to change it in ways so drastic that the government, President Abraham Lincoln said, should be “of the people, by the people, and for the people” is being transformed into a government of the state, by the state, and for the state. If Americans do not do what is necessary to reverse this trend, the great experiment of America will die…

From mansion fire to national outcry: Gov. Josh Shapiro’s powerful stand

The Hidden Lightness with Jimmy Hinton – The terrorist told police he harbored deep hatred toward the governor and said that, had he seen him, he would have attacked him with a hammer. This horrifying act wasn’t just an attack on one man or one political party — it was an attack on democracy itself. Governor Shapiro could have responded with anger. He could have used the moment to score political points or attack his…

An NSL would provide a congenial stage for competition between incompatible ideas and otherwise mortal enemies. It might even lead to a compatibility of ideas not yet achieved. Get the federal government out of the business of picking winners and losers and let reality take its course. With it, there will be 50 different experiments with which to narrow down what works and what doesn’t work…

Democrats seem to glorify violence and not denounce it

After Dark with Hosts Rob & Andrew – Growing violence—from a Wisconsin teen’s family massacre to two assassination bids on Trump—stokes public fear as crime rises under current leadership. Democratic calls for unity and root causes clash with Trump’s stark law‑and‑order pledge, positioning him as the decisive candidate promising security and swift justice in the 2025 upcoming campaign.

Understanding how the income tax came to America

The Constitution Study with Host Paul Engel – Back in 1913, when the states ratified the Sixteenth Amendment, they fundamentally changed the relationship between the federal government and the American people, and it’s more than just one day of strife. So, while you go around complaining about paying your taxes and the “Infernal Revenue Service,” let’s take some time and consider why we…

Addressing the root cause & regenerating the body is not a switch you flip

Looking 4 Healing Radio with Dr. Benjamin Benulis – We live in a culture obsessed with instant gratification. We’ve been conditioned by Western medicine and mainstream health narratives to believe that every problem has a quick fix, a magic pill, or a procedure that will “cure” us instantly. But true healing doesn’t work that way. It’s not about silencing symptoms — it’s about addressing the…
