I Could Be Wrong.

  Like most Americans, I don’t wake up thinking about the Constitution. Most of us are thinking about groceries, rent, our kids, their jobs, just the day-to-day things that we have to do to survive. But there should be one thing that nearly everyone agrees on: if you swear an oath to the Constitution, you should keep it. No excuses. No party loopholes. No hiding behind talking points. An oath is supposed to mean something. When members of Congress stop honoring it, the consequences don’t stay in Washington. They land on all of us. Over the last several years, a large block of lawmakers has repeatedly failed to carry out the basic duties the Constitution assigns to Congress. This isn’t about party or ideology. It is about whether the people we elected are doing the job the founder gave them, as prescribed by the Constitution. The truth is simple: when Congress stops doing its job, America pays the price.  Congress has a job, and it just isn’t doing it. The Constitution gives Co...

  There’s a simple way to judge a country: look at whose lives it protects, and whose lives it’s willing to forget. For years now, we’ve heard the phrase “All Lives Matter.” It sounds fair. It sounds equal. It sounds like common sense. But a country doesn’t reveal its values through slogans. It reveals them through actions, through the lives it defends, the lives it ignores, and the lives it quietly pushes out of sight. And lately, America has been doing a whole lot of looking away. When Black Americans said they were being killed during traffic stops and routine encounters, the response from many leaders wasn’t concern; it was irritation. Instead of saying, “Let’s fix the problem so fewer people die,” we heard “Blue Lives Matter,” “Stop resisting,” and “BLM is a terrorist group.” A man died in a chokehold on camera. We all saw, from the beginning to the end. It was like a modern-day lynching. Millions marched peacefully. The answer from those in power was “law and order,” and “...

  It is Easter again. I walked away from the church years ago, in fact, a long time ago. Why? I just couldn't understand what the Bible said, and what society was becoming, and how they interacted with each other. I saw the poor getting poorer and the rich getting richer, and I could no longer reconcile how this fit the teachings of the Gospel. The moment that reminded me why I walked away wasn’t a sermon or a scandal. It was watching a politician, a man who openly admits he doesn’t read the Bible much, argue with the Pope about Jesus as if he were the expert in the room. One man has spent his entire life studying Scripture. The other can’t even quote Scripture. Yet millions of Christians lined up behind the politician anyway. In fact, they have even compared him to Jesus. That was the moment I realized I hadn’t walked away from Jesus. I was walking away from what had been done to him, not by his crucifixion 2000 years ago, but by how we crucify him almost daily today. Whe...

  On Saturday, I was looking at Facebook and a person I was friends with, in fact, someone I went to High School with, posted something I knew was wrong. The post claimed that four lawmakers in Colorado decided jail time shouldn’t be mandatory for people who committed sexual assault of children. She claimed they were pedophile protectors. I opened up Perplexity and asked about the situation, and this is the reply I got back: You’re referring to a recent controversy in Colorado over a proposed bill that would change sentencing rules for certain sex crimes. Here are the verified facts to clarify what’s actually happening: • In early 2026, the Colorado House Judiciary Committee held a vote on a sentencing reform bill that aimed to give judges more discretion in certain felony cases. • Some lawmakers voted against an amendment that would have made mandatory prison sentences apply to all sex crimes, including child sexual assault, preferring instead to let judges determine sentences...

  I hope that most Americans — conservative, liberal, MAGA, independent — believe the Constitution is supposed to be the one thing every elected official must obey. It’s the rulebook. It’s the guardrail. It’s the promise that no matter who’s in power, the government still belongs to the people. But here’s the truth I can’t sugarcoat: both parties play politics, but only one party has shown a consistent pattern of treating the Constitution itself as optional whenever it becomes inconvenient. This isn’t about left vs. right. This is about whether the United States still functions as a constitutional republic. To understand the danger, we have to look at how each branch has drifted — and how the Constitution’s original design left us vulnerable to exactly this kind of breakdown. The Constitution Was Not Designed for Political Parties. The framers imagined a system where each branch would defend its own power. Congress would guard its authority . The president would faithfully ...

  A lot of people feel like we’re sliding into a form of “soft feudalism” where a small group at the top makes the big decisions, and everyone else mostly lives with the consequences. It doesn’t look like the Middle Ages on the surface—no castles or crowns—, but the underlying pattern is similar: concentrated power, limited real options for most people, and a system that quietly says, “Know your place.” In medieval feudalism, a tiny class of lords owned the land. If you were born a peasant, you worked that land, paid the lord, and hoped you survived. You were technically “protected,” but you weren’t really free. The law, the church, and custom all told you this was just the natural order. The whole setup made it very hard to move, to improve your situation, or to challenge the people on top. Your job was to keep the machine running for them. Now picture today’s version. A small number of people and corporations own or control the things you can’t live without: housing, healt...

  The Lying Mouth That Roared — And Why His Lies Hurt the People Who Trust Him Most . America has always been loud. That’s not a flaw; it’s a feature. Loudness is how ordinary Americans have always made themselves heard in a country where power tends to gather at the top. We cheer loudly, argue loudly, pray loudly, and fight loudly. Loudness built unions, won wars, and kept politicians honest. But there’s a difference between being loud because you’re telling the truth and being loud. After all, you’re covering something up. And that difference matters — especially when the person doing the roaring is a president. Donald Trump has always been loud. That’s not new. What’s new is how often the roar replaces the truth, and how often the people who end up paying the price for that roar are the very people who trust him most. This isn’t about whether someone likes Trump or hates him. It’s about whether the things he says help people or hurts them. And when you look closely, a patte...

  Most Americans – including, I hope, the millions who proudly wear those red hats- believe in something very simple and sacred: America only works if the rules apply to everyone. That is the promise of the Constitution. That’s the deal our Founding Fathers made with us. And that is the deal we are in danger of breaking. Not because of taxes. Not because of immigration. Not because of foreign enemies. But because something more dangerous. We’ve started letting one man’s labels matter more than the truth. If we don’t stop it, we will not have a constitutional republic to hand to our children and grandchildren. When Robert Mueller investigated Russian interference, Trump did not argue the evidence. He didn’t say why the allegations were wrong. He said only one thing, “Witch Hunt”. The problem is that millions of Americans believed him. Not because they saw the evidence. Not because they read the report. But because the label was repeated so loudly and so often that it drowned out e...
