Share this with anyone who’s been duped by the 1619 Project’s version of America’s founding. Constitutional law scholar Randy Barnett explains why the historical record is far more complicated than the claim that America was founded to preserve slavery: at the time of the founding, America was on the leading edge of the anti-slavery movement, and the prevailing expectation at the time was that slavery was already on a path toward abolition. From the latest Hold These Truths podcast.

Do you know the difference between a Constitutional Republic and a Democracy? It's actually rather important, and also why our enemy within has long sought to gaslight the public into accepting the lie that our country is the latter of the two types of Government.

People in America need to stop calling us a Democracy, We are a Constitutional Republic It's important to know the difference⏬ Take a minute to watch this video/poat and share it with someone else today, it will open your eyes "The idea of Democracy is universal equality, the idea of a Republic is individual Liberty" "A democracy always degenerates in the dictatorship which promises government guaranteed equality and security but it delivers nothing but poverty and surf them for the people that robs and rules" "America was founded as a constitutional republic to safeguard the liberties of the people against the tyranny of democracy or of one Dictatorship" "In this century great strides have been made toward the goal of subverting our republic into a democracy. The foremost tactic of the subverters is subversion of language. By calling America a democracy until people thoughtlessly accept and use the term the totalitarians have obscured the real meaning of our principles of government"

"It's very unusual for any scholar, much less a junior scholar, to fundamentally change the terms of the debate over the meaning of the Constitution, and Jud's scholarship has done that." - Prof. Randy Barnett (Randy Barnett) This weekend at the 2025 Student Symposium, we presented the Joseph Story Award to Prof. Jud Campbell of Stanford Law School (Stanford Law School). Given annually, the award recognizes a young academic who has demonstrated excellence in legal scholarship, a commitment to teaching, a concern for students, and who has made a significant public impact in a manner that advances the rule of law in a free society.

The latest episode of Hold These Truths with National Review writer Noah Rothman explores the history and psychology behind the rise in left-wing political violence we’re seeing in America today. Political violence and radical movements aren’t new to the American story. What’s new is the internet’s ability to romanticize revolutionary politics and reward it in ways we’ve never seen before. Noah traces the parallels between today’s extremist movements and the waves of political terrorism that gripped America throughout the 20th century – and explains why young people are often drawn to revolutionary causes in the first place.

Mr Ruto, make no mistake, we are the United Alternative Government-in-Waiting, and Kenya is a constitutional democracy. Kenyans will hold you accountable for your unconstitutional and unconscionable looting of our Republic on August 10, 2027.

Thinking about the 250th year of the United States... why does it blow me away? It's the closest thing to utopia that has taken place in all of humanity. People came from all over the world because it was a refuge and a land of opportunity. To have this mix of people come together and experience freedom and order at the same time—to work well and create opportunity together—is incredible. But it requires us to ask: How does the rule of law balance with compromise to reach an agreement for the greater good? On this 4th of July, these are my reflections. It is something to be treasured. #4thOfJuly #America250 #Opportunity #Principles

The United States IS NOT a democracy, so quit calling it one and correct anyone who uses that word! A democracy is a political system in which people periodically by majority vote, at the poll, select their rulers. The rulers then have absolute power to make whatever laws they please buy majority vote among themselves. In a constitutional republic, the people also by majority voters, at the polls, select rulers who make laws by a majority vote among themselves. But the rulers cannot make any laws they please, because the constitution severely restricts their law making power. The ideal of a democracy is universal equality. The idea of a constitutional republic is individual liberty. In this century, great strides have been made towards the goal of subverting our republic and transforming it into a democracy. The foremost tactic of subverters is subversion of language. By calling America a “democracy” until people thoughtlessly accept and use the term. Totalitarians have obscured the real meaning of American principles of government. Writers of the constitution were anxious to safeguard liberty against dictatorship … monarchy they called it. But their chief anxiety was to protect this country against democracy. Edmund Randolph, delicate to the constitutional convention from Virginia, said the general object of the convention was to provide a cure for the follies and fury of democracy. Eldridge Gary and Roger Sherman, delicates from Massachusetts and Connecticut, urged the constitutional convention to create a system to eliminate the evils that flow from the excess of democracy. Alexander Hamilton, the delicate from New York, said we are now forming a Republican government … “real liberty is not found in democracy. If we incline too much to democracy, we shall soon shoot into a monarchy.” John Adams, one of the Giants of the American Revolutionary, said “democracy will envy all, contend with all, endeavor to pull down all, and when by chance it happens to get the upper hand for a short time, democracy will be revengeful, bloody, and cruel.” America was founded not as a democracy, but as a constitutional republic. We pledge allegiance to the republic for which our flag stands, not to a democracy. The constitution requires a republican form of government for all states, but does not mention democracy, and neither does the Declaration of Independence or the Bill of Rights. Foreman asked him (Franklin) what kind of government the convention had given America, and Franklin replied, “a republic, if you can keep it.” Very old and very wise, Franklin saw through the mist of time to the day when Americans might trade their freedom in a constitutional republic for the promise of government guaranteed equality and security in a democracy, and beyond that to the day when democracy inevitably degenerates into dictatorship … guaranteeing nothing but poverty and serfdom for the people it robs and rules.

This is Brookhaven Presbyterian Church (PCA) in Atlanta, GA. They have a female director of shepherding and formation. The title “director” isn’t the issue—but "of shepherding" raises two big questions: 1. What’s the difference between pastoring and shepherding in the PCA? 2. What’s the difference between a pastor and a shepherd? I want to be precise here. Also worth noting: they list both men and women as deacons under the same heading, using the same nomination form, with no distinction between male and female, deacon and deaconess.
