Gone is the Republic with Paul Engel

About this episode

The episode discusses the challenges facing the American Republic and whether it can be restored amidst political corruption and a broken system.

Dr. Michael Scheuer and Col. Mike are joined by America Out Loud’s Paul Engel, host of The Constitutional Study, for a hard-hitting discussion on whether America can still recover the republic the Founders built, or whether “democracy” has become the velvet-gloved road to tyranny. Engel lays out how a broken education system, unchecked courts, unvetted politicians, runaway debt, foreign influence, and imperial wars have pushed the Constitution to the margins while both parties hide behind slogans of “democracy.” From the Founders’ warnings to today’s political class, the Two Mikes expose the urgent question facing America First citizens: can the people still fire the crooks, frauds, and power-hungry elites before the republic is gone for good.
