Mr. Constitution Hour by Douglas V. Gibbs

A Separation of Powers dictates that the operations of the Executive Branch belong to the chief executive, the President of the United States. Yet, organizations and people with no standing are using the courts to unconstitutionally go after President Trump for his actions within the Executive Branch. There is a constitutional crisis going on, but it's not what we are being told. The problem is, we have wandered away from our godly foundation, and we are chasing the rule of man rather than the rule of law. We need We the People and our churches to be active in the public square because the whole foundation that Trump is defending and operating under is supposed to operate on biblical principles. We ARE supposed to have an energetic President, as well as an energetic general population and an energetic church with pastors who understand they are supposed to be our community leaders and that they are supposed to be energetically influential in the public square.

Are Trump's Executive Orders constitutional? How do they compare to Joe Biden's? What are legislative powers, and how does the separation of powers work? What is the difference between a republic and a democracy and why do we have a federal government rather than a national government? Mr. Constitution explains.

Our American System was founded on Biblical Godly Principles that we are still fighting for today, and the darkness that shrouds the enemies of the Constitution is becoming more and more apparent as we move forward. Evil, however, is not on the march as we believe and can only exist when there is an absence of Godliness -- like darkness, evil is simply an absence of light. Then, Mr. Constitution explains the Presidential Power of Impoundment, and how that power constitutionally allows the President to suspend federal expenditures as Trump did recently for either review, reallocation, or elimination. That is the President's decision. However, once again, the liberal left progressives have challenged the President, using the courts to control his constitutional allowances. Mr. Constitution Douglas V. Gibbs explains the whole dilemma in detail.

As the first week of Donald Trump's presidency nearly concludes, many questions have arisen. Is he following the Constitution? Is his birthright citizenship executive order constitutional? Is he a President following the rule of law? Is he wielding the powers of the federal government as originally intended, or is he the dictator that the Democrats claim him to be? Mr. Constitution Douglas V. Gibbs examines each of these questions during this episode, working his way through the Preamble of the United States Constitution and the Fourteenth Amendment's Citizenship Clause to provide the answers.

Politicians talk about unity and defending democracy, but what do they really mean? What did the Founding Fathers expect when they wrote the Constitution. What kind of unity did they expect when they provided the words, "We the People"? Then, during the last segment of this Mr. Constitution Hour episode, Douglas V. Gibbs goes over a survey regarding the priorities respondents find most important for the incoming Trump Administration.

After providing an update regarding the fires in Southern California, Douglas V. Gibbs goes back to the basic. If you tell a lie often enough, it becomes the truth, so has been the story of the words "democracy" and "nation," both of which were never intended by the Founding Fathers.

The Trump Effect is influencing America, and the world. Donald Trump is not even officially President, yet, but the world is responding in a positive way. However, we have a sick society in need of a Savior. We have been so desensitized to immorality that when the killer of the United Health CEO was mentioned on Saturday Night Live, the crowd cheered. We better get right with God, or our new era of returning to normalcy will be a bumpy ride. The enemies of God, and our Liberty, are out there, not just politically, but as we saw in New Orleans and at the Trump Tower in Las Vegas, they wear the mask of Islam as well and they are willing to strike with terror inside the United States.

After discussing the budget stop-gap continuing resolution bill that is full of Democrat Woke Wishlist items and attempts to sabotage the Trump Administration, Mr. Constitution discusses Christmas in the Colonies and during the American Revolution. During the second half of the program Douglas V. Gibbs then discusses the Daniel Penny case, Biden's revenge not only against Trump but against the Democrats, and the Democratic Party's vengeance that they seek to carry out against President Donald J. Trump in the coming year. Support the show: http://www.douglasvgibbs.com/mrconstitutionhourradio.php See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

I have had folks who don't necessarily agree with me politically ask, "How can you support someone like Trump," referring to the flaws of the man as leveled by media and various other actors. How can such a flawed man be a part of God's Will, or God's Plan? It is not my place to determine if the man is flawed, but I do know God's Plan when I see it. Mr. Constitution explains.

Title: True Face of Liberty and Presidential Pardons While we have numerous special interest groups and "protected classes" claiming they need preferential treatment in the name of fairness, inclusion, and tolerance, the reality is that identity politics violates the true nature of what liberty is all about. As for presidential pardons, James Madison had something to say about the need for limitations of how a President uses his pardoning power, and Mr. Constitution believes that Biden may not have accomplished completely what he desired with his sweeping blanket pardon of Hunter Biden.

Mr. Constitution Hour by Douglas V. Gibbs: Electoral College, Birthright Citizenship, and Lawfare -- A line by line explanation as to why we need to keep the Electoral College, and how it's been tampered with over the last two hundred years. Birthright Citizenship is not in the Constitution, and isn't even supported by the courts as argued. Doug goes over the Fourteenth Amendment's Citizenship Clause, and the United States v. Wong Kim Ark (1898). With the election of Donald Trump as President the Lawfare cases by Democrats is going away...was it even constitutional in the first place?

Mr. Constitution Hour by Douglas V. Gibbs: Recess Appointments, Compact of Resistance, and which federal departments we need to constitutionally get rid of -- There are concerns about the likelihood of some of Donald Trump's department head picks being confirmed by the U.S. Senate, so the Trump team has threatened using recess appointments to get them in. Is that constitutional? And, even if it is, would it be wise to take that route? How likely is it? Mr. Constitution explains. Then, Blue State governors and attorney generals have banded together to create a compact called Governors Safeguarding Democracy. Is it constitutional? And, finally, Douglas V. Gibbs addresses the call by Trump to eliminate the Department of Education. Can he? Is it a good idea? What other federal departments may be unconstitutional and either need to be canned, or refined?

From Dangerous Rhetoric to the Election of Trump -- Last episode we talked about dangerous political rhetoric. This week we discuss the rise of the dangerous rhetoric against Trump (calling him a danger to democracy, Nazi, fascist, Hitler, and the like) and how Americans didn't buy into any of it, and elected Donald J. Trump as the 47th President of the United States on Election Day, 2024. But now that he's been elected, what do we do next? What should we expect? Mr. Constitution, Douglas V. Gibbs, explains.

We are seeing a lot of dangerous political rhetoric, including calling Donald Trump a fascist. Interestingly, it is nothing new. In this episode of the Mr. Constitution Hour we will talk about the rhetoric and go through what has happened each election season from 1964 to 2016...then we will conclude the discussion during the next episode.

Doug opens by discussing Project 2025, and the decline of formalism (which opened the door to a broad interpretation of the United States Constitution) during the first segment. Then, Doug answers the question: "Can the ATF regulate ghost guns?" He also discusses the Pennsylvania ban of guns to 18-20 year-olds and the Supreme Court's stance on the issue, and whether or not the court was right regarding the EPA's regulatory stance on emissions for private industry. Then, Mr. Constitution wraps up the show discussing the alleged attempted assassination by Vem Miller of President Trump in Coachella, California and Doug made comment about the press conference regarding the situation by Sheriff Chad Bianco. Was it yet another Deep State operation? Support the show: http://www.douglasvgibbs.com/mrconstitutionhourradio.php See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Do you think the Founding Fathers would recognize today's America? What about truth? The Declaration of Independence indicates that the Founding Fathers were operating on truth, self-evident truth, and that they were putting the truth out there for the world to see. Today, truth is based on narrative, not natural law or the natural order of things. We face censorship for misinformation, disinformation, and anything else that does not fit a particular narrative. Even when it comes to hurricanes, the enemies of the Constitution has proclaimed that any argument that does not support that they are doing their job is misinformation, as they sent corded electric chainsaws to North Carolina to help them cut away the trees that have fallen on power lines so that they can, you know, get electricity. Meanwhile, Michigan's Governor Whitmer is mocking Christian Communion in a video with a leftist writer, and then later laughs about post-birth abortion. It's worse than a narrative. It's worse than communism. These people are stupid -- and evil. That is a taste of this week's program, as well as Doug talking about the upcoming election and the antics of the Democrats and their leftist allies.

Jack Smith has filed a new lawsuit claiming Donald Trump's questioning of the 2020 Election does not fall under immunity as defined by the United States Supreme Court. The Constitution says otherwise. Also, JD Vance in his debate was fact checked, and he was correct in his answer, and has backed it up with evidence. The Biden/Harris regime has been slow to respond to Hurricane Helene's march through the eastern edge of the United States, but Trump was there quickly -- what is expected of the President during such emergencies according to the Constitution? Iran attacked Israel, and the Biden/Harris administration funded it. And, according to CNN Donald Trump is calling for a 25th Amendment regarding the Vice President -- Mr. Constitution explains.

A continuation of my response to the article, "The Constitution is Sacred. Is it also dangerous?" by New York Times writer Jennifer Szalai.
