A friendly Reminder

The Bible teaches that believers are to impact the world around them with God’s precepts and for His glory. The ways in which this Christian influence happens vary, respective to the call God has placed on each believer. We are called to have an impact for God in our chosen field.  While some churches teach that believers should be involved only in evangelism and abstain from a career in politics, that’s not what the Bible teaches.  “You are the salt of the earth…”  and  “You

Do you permanently lose your rights when convicted of a crime? Can the federal government take away your rights protected by the Second Amendment for a crime punishable by a year in jail? What are the potential violations of the Constitution this law presents? According to federal law, if someone is convicted of a crime and punished with more than one year in jail, they lose their rights protected under the Second Amendment. A recent decision by the Ninth Circuit Court not on

Why did the Founding Fathers place the power of the purse in the hands of Congress? Does Congress have the ability to give up the power of the purse? Why would Congress voluntarily give up a tool as powerful as the power of the purse? Article I, Section 9, Clause 7 of the Constitution states “No Money shall be drawn from the Treasury, but in Consequence of Appropriations made by Law;”. That seems pretty straight forward. So how could Congress establish a government agency fun

SCOTUS’s June 2022 ruling that overturned Roe v. Wade has paved the way for the high court to question the legitimacy of its similarly overreaching decisions. D.C. insiders know that one of those past rulings ripe for being overturned is same-sex marriage. In response to the vulnerability of the Supreme Court’s same-sex marriage decision, the House of Representatives rushed through legislation to make same-sex marriage the law of the land. News stories reported that secular a

The WHO Pandemic Agreement includes a lot of powers for this U.N. agency. Many claims about what would happen should President Biden sign this agreement. Except all of the claims that this “treaty” would be legally binding in the United States are not true. The World Health Organization’s (WHO) Pandemic Agreement has been in the news again lately. Not only does this United Nation organization want the power to take over the world in a “health emergency”, but numerous politici

Does the Constitution still matter anymore? Is the Constitution a magically document that will save the day? Or is it the only tool that can restore our rights. I meet a lot of people who think the Constitution is useless, while others wonder how people can get away with violating it. While these may appear to be opposing positions, I believe they stem from the same misconception: That the Constitution of the United States is some superhero that will come flying in to save th

In a constitutional republic, is anyone immune from prosecution? When government actors are immune for their actions, how can they be held accountable? If, as the Supreme Court has said, the President is immune for his official actions, how does that not make him a king? When the delegates to the Constitutional Convention debated the role of the chief executive, many expected George Washington to become our first king. Between Mr. Washington’s humility, and the delegates rece

There’s a lie that has been repeated so many times, people think it’s black letter law. Based on that lie, Maine has illegally joined 16 other states in a compact to elect the President by national popular vote. This national popular vote myth is more than confusion about how we elect the President, it’s an attempt to destroy the republic. Maine’s governor allowed an unconstitutional piece of legislation to become “law” without her signature. LD 1578 , An Act to Adopt an Inte

FISA Section 702 has been used repeatedly by the FBI to illegally spy on Americans. There are those who claim requiring a warrant to search the Section 702 database is unreasonable. Will the American people give up their rights for the promise of safety? A policy statement released by the Executive Office of the administration’s Office of Management and Budget, effectively made the very bold statement that the Constitution of the United States was a threat to national securit

When does government encouragement become coercion? Do government actors have a legal responsibility to manage a business’s “repetitional risk”? Can government use its power to encourage others not to do business with you? If there’s a boogie man in the anti-gun community, it’s probably the National Rifle Association. Accused of complicity in almost every gun crime from gang violence to mass murder, the NRA has become the lightning rod for the vitriol of those whose fear of f

Most Americans learned about the Battles of Lexington and Concord from a Henry Wadsworth Longfellow. But is that history or propaganda? Did you realize that our war for independence was initiated in response to gun control? Will the American people learn the lessons of these battles before we have another shot heard around the world. Listen, my children, and you shall hear Of the midnight ride of Paul Revere, Paul Revere’s Ride by Henry Wadsworth Longfellow   Most of us who g

TikTok is spyware, but it’s not alone. Congress has come up with Protecting Americans from Foreign Adversary Controlled Applications Act, but does it do more harm than good? What if the American people simply stopped their children from using TikTok? I have a lot of issues with TikTok, and it’s one social media platform I refuse to use. However, when I look at how Congress plans to deal with this platform, I see even more problems. I’ve also read and listened to several comme
