About those two guarantees in the world: death and taxes

April 11, 2026 • 57 mins
The Constitution Study with Host Paul Engel – If the federal government were any private organization, it would be totally bankrupt. In fact, the only reason the United States isn’t bankrupt is because people around the world still think we will pay our bills. Yet with interest on the debt each year exceeding what we pay for the Defense Department, how long can that last? ...

Los Angelenos would rather be servants than masters

April 10, 2026 • 56 mins
The Constitution Study with Host Paul Engel – And if you thought New York City electing a socialist mayor was an aberration, look to Los Angeles. Not only is the socialist candidate doing well, but a recent poll shows almost half of those polled wanted a socialist in charge. I guess freedom is just too much work, and Los Angelenos would rather be servants than masters...

Making my head explode

April 9, 2026 • 57 mins
The Constitution Study with Host Paul Engel – Are there things that drive you nuts? Things people say or do that drive you nuts? I know I have some pet peeves that are so annoying to me, I think my head is going to explode! Take the birthright citizenship question recently heard at the Supreme Court. Every journalist, commentator, and pundit I’ve heard talk about the case says that...

Regulatory failure or violation of our rights?

April 8, 2026 • 57 mins
The Constitution Study with Host Paul Engel – Sadly, the greatest failure is the willingness of the American people to capitulate to these illegal demands, simply because they come from the government or are based on so-called experts. Our lives are regulated by numerous governments and government actors. What happens if the data those actors are using to create their regulation is garbage?

Finding ethics in Washington

April 5, 2026
The Constitution Study with Host Paul Engel – I explore how ethics shape public life, from Congress to elections and policy decisions. I examine recent investigations, alleged violations, and questions surrounding accountability. These examples reveal growing concerns about integrity, transparency, and trust in institutions, prompting reflection on whether ethical standards are upheld or increasingly challenged in today’s political...

Another game of playing chicken

April 4, 2026 • 57 mins
The Constitution Study with Host Paul Engel – Just look at the game of chicken that members of Congress have been playing with DHS funding for the past month and a half. However, unlike with cars, it’s not the politicians who are suffering the consequences, but the American people. Then there are the cities that keep playing chicken with the violent protesters. Especially when politicians refuse...

When the lines blur on freedom of speech and press

April 3, 2026 • 57 mins
The Constitution Study with Host Paul Engel – The first five words of the First Amendment are, “Congress shall make no law…”, that means that the First Amendment only applies to the federal government. And no, contrary to what the Supreme Court has said, the Fourteenth Amendment did not rewrite the First. So if freedom of speech and press are so important, what are we doing to...

Complaining about Congress? You get what you vote for

April 2, 2026 • 57 mins
The Constitution Study with Host Paul Engel – Unhappy with the DHS shutdown? Offended that workers at the TSA, FEMA, and Coast Guard are being forced to work without pay while members of Congress, who caused this mess, still get their paycheck? Remember, when you voted for your member of Congress, personally or not, collectively we hired them; they are our employees...

Teaching the rising generation

March 31, 2026 • 57 mins
The Constitution Study with Host Paul Engel – I warn that freedom stands one generation from extinction and argue it is our duty to teach it. I criticize government schools, political overreach, and unchecked power, urging Americans to study the Constitution, defend liberty, and raise children who understand their rights before those freedoms vanish in our nation today...

I guess crime really can pay

March 29, 2026 • 57 mins
The Constitution Study with Host Paul Engel – Crime appears to reward bad behavior when enforcement fails. Police actions avoid scrutiny under qualified immunity, repeat offenders face minimal consequences, and fraudsters walk away with fines. Citizens, as sovereign, keep reelecting those responsible. The cycle continues, raising urgent questions about accountability, justice, and whether consequences truly exist in today’s system....

Who holds the gavel accountable?

March 28, 2026 • 57 mins
The Constitution Study with Host Paul Engel – What happens in the courts does not stay in the courts. We the People most often exercise our right to petition the government for a redress of grievances in the courts. But how often do we check in and see how they are doing? Did you know that the Supreme Court heard oral arguments in a case that will...

States fighting back against Washington

March 27, 2026 • 57 mins
The Constitution Study with Host Paul Engel – Read the Constitution, and you’ll see that the states created the federal government, not the other way around. Washington, D.C., has forgotten that critical fact, and so have our states. However, there are still those working within our states to restore them as overseers of the government of the United States. Here in Tennessee, the Volunteer...

The SAVE Act dilemma: Federal has no authority over state election roles

March 26, 2026 • 56 mins
The Constitution Study with Host Paul Engel – The U.S. Senate is debating the SAVE Act. But half of the act is unconstitutional. Congress can adjust the time, place, and manner of elections, but only for the U.S. House and Senate. The SAVE Act claims to tell the states someone must be a citizen of the US to register to vote, even though each of the fifty states already has that requirement...

When branches clash: Who really holds power?

March 25, 2026 • 57 mins
The Constitution Study with Host Paul Engel – I explore the balance of power among the three branches of the federal government, examining conflicts between executive authority and judicial rulings, questions about enforcing court orders, and how the Constitution shapes disputes when presidential actions and delegated powers face legal challenges in modern governance and constitutional interpretation debates...

We the People vs. the government

The Constitution Study with Host Paul Engel – This piece explores the tension between citizens and the government meant to serve them. It questions what happens when public servants overreach, challenge constitutional limits, and pursue conflicting agendas. It also considers the responsibility of the American people to hold leaders accountable and preserve the integrity of a constitutional republic...

The primary duty of government confuses millions of Americans

March 21, 2026 • 57 mins
The Constitution Study with Host Paul Engel – Think of how many recent decisions in the District Court were most likely based on an attempt to protect the American people from the so-called evil Donald Trump. How many rights have been trampled in these judges' attempts to protect us from their caricature of the current president? How many government agencies have been created...

Trusting government is a fool’s errand

March 20, 2026 • 57 mins
The Constitution Study with Host Paul Engel – Lucy pulls the ball away at the last moment, and Charlie Brown falls flat on his back. I think that’s a great metaphor for the American people. We keep trusting government actors to do the right thing, only to find ourselves flat on our backs, our wallets emptied, and in pain caused by government policies.

How can we tell the truth from a lie?

March 19, 2026 • 57 mins
The Constitution Study with Host Paul Engel – Are you aware that not only have members of Congress settled sexual misconduct allegations with hush money, but that millions of taxpayer dollars were used? If you watch Senate Minority Leader Schumer’s rant about the SAVE Act, could you spot the lies? What about the lie in Maine when they put a convicted mail sexual predator in a women’s prison?

The consequences of political rhetoric

March 18, 2026 • 57 mins
The Constitution Study with Host Paul Engel – We’ve all heard Newton’s Third Law of Motion: for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction. But what about the rest of life? In life, for every action there is a reaction, a consequence, but they are not always equal or opposite. Cities like Boston and states like California take action to implement high taxes and...

Nothing to see here: How politicians distract the public

The Constitution Study with Host Paul Engel – Politicians and public officials deflect attention from uncomfortable issues, urging people to believe there is “nothing to see.” From election controversies to protests, congressional debates, and bizarre government programs, these moments reveal how distraction, messaging, and political theater often replace accountability when embarrassing problems or contradictions come into...

This is also a story about the myth of the “perfect victim:” who gets believed, who gets doubted, and why. We follow Saskia as she works to reclaim her body, her voice, and her life.
