The love of other people’s money
Dec 10, 2025·—
—
The Constitution Study with Host Paul Engel – This piece challenges the morality of living off other people’s money, arguing that federal programs, state compliance, and taxpayer-funded incentives reflect a deeper culture of greed. By examining education, immigration, and welfare policies, it claims unconstitutional federal power persists because the public accepts and even demands redistributed wealth...

Working hard to take your money
Dec 7, 2025·—
—
The Constitution Study with Host Paul Engel – I work hard for my money, yet government agencies and politicians seem to work even harder to take it. From unconstitutional ID requirements to abusive benefit programs and deceptive tax schemes, both parties fuel reckless spending while ignoring their oath to the Constitution and the financial burden placed on everyday Americans...

America’s litigious society explains why we have more lawyers than doctors
Dec 6, 2025·—
—
The Constitution Study with Host Paul Engel – The United States of America has more lawyers than doctors. So it should not be a surprise that we have become a very litigious society, where most of our conflicts are resolved in courts. But are these courts of law or courts of opinions? For example, three cases before the Supreme Court may...

If everyone else jumps off a bridge, are you going to follow them?
Dec 5, 2025·—
—
The Constitution Study with Host Paul Engel – I don’t know which bothers me more, the evidence that there are those who are leading this nation into a dystopian nightmare, or the willingness of the people to follow along. Like lemmings, it seems many Americans are willing to sit back and be led into a socialist dystopia, with little effort to do anything. Is this the future you want for your children?

The consequences of inaction
Dec 4, 2025·—
—
The Constitution Study with Host Paul Engel – Widespread problems persist when citizens and leaders choose complacency over action. From illegal immigration and unchecked ideology to federal overreach in education, inaction allows harmful ideas to spread and take root. When responsibility is endlessly deferred, consequences multiply, institutions weaken, and the cost is ultimately paid by the nation itself...

More about political revenge than justice!
Dec 3, 2025·—
—
The Constitution Study with Host Paul Engel – When I was young, the long arm of the law conveyed the idea that if you break the law, eventually the law will get you. Today, it seems the long arm of the law is more about political revenge than justice. Take the latest news on the Arctic Frost probe. The latest data shows that a prosecutor for Biden’s DOJ subpoenaed Verizon for Rep. Jim Jordan’s personal...

Defense of self and others
Nov 30, 2025·—
—
The Constitution Study with Host Paul Engel – The right to keep and bear arms flows from a deeper, natural right to self-defense. This piece challenges Americans to consider not only defending themselves, but also their responsibility to defend others. It questions reliance on government protection and urges citizens to reclaim personal and communal responsibility for safety...

Thinking of the small things we can be thankful for
Nov 29, 2025·—
—
The Constitution Study with Host Paul Engel – While we all have a lot to give thanks for, I think limiting it to one day a year deprives us all of something important. For example, many people today stop before their feast and list what they’re thankful for: family, friends, a warm home, and a good meal. Have you taken the time to think of the small things we can be thankful for?

When the truth comes out
Nov 28, 2025·—
—
The Constitution Study with Host Paul Engel – Truth has a way of breaking through agendas, politics, and deception. From faith and government claims to climate hypocrisy, education, and public health narratives, moments arise when words and actions expose reality. These revelations challenge long-held assertions and remind us that truth, once revealed, brings clarity, accountability, and freedom...

Dangers of unlimited government
Nov 27, 2025·—
—
The Constitution Study with Host Paul Engel – The Constitution establishes a federal government with limited, enumerated powers, yet those limits are increasingly ignored. This piece questions who enforces constitutional boundaries and warns of the dangers that arise when federal authority expands without consent, oversight, or amendment, threatening liberty and self-government as power concentrates in Washington...

When truth turns into a lie
Nov 26, 2025·—
—
The Constitution Study with Host Paul Engel – What’s worse than not knowing the truth? Believing it when someone tells you the truth is a lie. Jesus said the truth will set you free. If that’s true, then the lie you call the truth will enslave you. So why is the lie of “transgender” treated as the truth? A boy cannot become a girl, and a girl cannot become a boy. Yet today, we have people fighting to protect women in...

The true cost of government
Nov 23, 2025·—
—
The Constitution Study with Host Paul Engel – Government spending reaches staggering levels while hidden costs pile up. Political attacks, show trials, shutdown fallout, and the erosion of sovereignty reveal how power can stretch beyond consent. With reputations, time, and freedom at stake, citizens face the challenge of keeping leaders accountable and limiting overreach in every layer of government that affects their lives...

It’s not artificial intelligence, let’s be clear, it’s imitation intelligence!
Nov 22, 2025·—
—
The Constitution Study with Host Paul Engel – With all the focus on “Artificial Intelligence” and its impact on our lives, there’s one fundamental fact that keeps getting lost. These systems, like Grok, ChatGPT, and Gemini, aren’t really “artificial intelligence,” they’re imitation intelligence. By that, I mean these systems don’t artificially create intelligence; they are designed to mimic or imitate human intelligence...

Why civics education is failing America
Nov 21, 2025·—
—
The Constitution Study with Host Paul Engel – Civics is rarely taught in schools, and even law students graduate without studying the Constitution. This gap fuels misunderstandings about government power, federal overreach, and citizens’ rights. By learning the Constitution ourselves, we recognize violations sooner and become better prepared to defend our freedoms. Civic understanding starts with We the People taking...

Is the Second Amendment really there to protect the First Amendment?
Nov 20, 2025·—
—
The Constitution Study with Host Paul Engel – Some people claim that the First Amendment is first because it’s of first importance. But is that true? And is the Second Amendment really there to protect the first, as some people say? What if that isn’t true? Let’s take a closer look at these common statements. When the Constitution was being debated in the states...

Why have so many people lost trust in the federal government?
Nov 19, 2025·—
—
The Constitution Study with Host Paul Engel – Trust is a fickle thing. It can take years to gain and seconds to destroy. So when I found out about a Gallup poll that showed almost half of Americans do not trust the federal government, I wasn’t really surprised. However, when I dug into the details, I found much more than I was expecting. Could it be the repeated frivolous investigations into...

Shutdowns, shootings, and socialism: The real cost
Nov 16, 2025·—
—
The Constitution Study with Host Paul Engel – Recent events reveal deeper trends as shutdowns test government power, shootings expose failures of responsibility, and socialism promises more than it delivers. These issues highlight growing overreach and a widening gap between leaders and their constitutional duties. The path forward depends on citizens reclaiming limits, defending rights, and insisting on accountable leadership...

SCOTUS’s new term to include tariffs, elections, and states’ rights
Nov 15, 2025·—
—
The Constitution Study with Host Paul Engel – With the Supreme Court back in session, there are plenty of cases we should be interested in. Some of the cases, the court will hear; just as important are the cases the court decides not to hear. Today, I want to take a look at some of those cases, especially those that involve the constitutional powers of government...

Democrats or Republicans not responsible for the shutdown mess?
Nov 14, 2025·—
—
The Constitution Study with Host Paul Engel – Everyone likes to point the finger, to blame someone for whatever mess they’re currently dealing with. When it comes to the government shutdown and its aftermath, who should we blame? So most people are pointing the finger at Congress, or more accurately, their opposing political party. But is that the source of the problem?

The direct correlation between your free speech and America’s Veterans
Nov 13, 2025·—
—
The Constitution Study with Host Paul Engel – What better way to honor our veterans than by exercising the rights they defended? The best way to honor them is to exercise the blessings of liberty the Constitution was designed to defend. That is why I will have Dr. Chloe on to discuss her new book: Can I Say That: Why Free Speech Matters and How to Use It Fearlessly...

Is socialism the future of America?
Nov 12, 2025·—
—
The Constitution Study with Host Paul Engel – America faces a defining choice between freedom and government control. As socialist ideas gain traction through elections and policy promises, citizens must decide whether to trade liberty for security. The movement toward socialism challenges personal responsibility, economic freedom, and family values—testing the nation’s character and shaping the future of American...

What we can learn from the recent elections
Nov 9, 2025·—
—
The Constitution Study with Host Paul Engel – The recent elections reveal how citizens continue to repeat old mistakes, believing in promises of free benefits and government fixes. From New York’s local choices to national fiscal irresponsibility, we see lessons ignored and ideology triumphing over reality. These outcomes remind us that democracy’s strength depends on voters learning from history and demanding accountability...

We need more free speech, not less!
Nov 8, 2025·—
—
The Constitution Study with Host Paul Engel – I’m sometimes amazed by the people who claim to support free speech, but don’t actually support it. From those trying to silence “disinformation” to those who won’t express ideas because they are not politically correct, censorship in all its forms is dangerous to the republic. Take, for example, the “No Kings” rallies around the country...

Arctic Frost comes full circle and bites back
Nov 7, 2025·—
—
The Constitution Study with Host Paul Engel – For anyone who’s spent time in an arctic environment, you’re probably aware of the dangers of frostbite. In politics, we seem to have found a new type of Arctic Frost Bite. Not the freezing of your fingers and toes, but a preverbal bite in the backside from the backlash from the Arctic Frost investigation...
