On January 5th, President Joe Biden delivered his first campaign speech seeking re-election in 2024. Before the speech was over, President Biden would use the term “democracy” twenty-nine times. There is one significant problem with the President’s rhetoric: General George Washington never mentioned the word “democracy” as America’s sacred cause. Let’s discuss “democracy” and its true meaning today on the Public Square®.

What is "the filibuster" rule we keep hearing about in the media? Is it an ancient "boundary stone" from the Constitution that limits the U.S. Senate from doing their job?

Please join in the conversation -- you might well hear some things they never told any of us back in school.

The title of today's broadcast is a trick question, in essence a mental trap. The use of the question "Does sex make us human?" is intended to help every American become aware that the United States Supreme Court believes this premise and is making rulings based upon it.

For the purpose of defining law, the Supreme Court is now operating upon the premise that sexuality defines humanity. States and local communities are acting upon those edicts and school children are now at ground zero in a civil war over sexual identity.

This issue will impact civil and religious liberties for every family, church, school, corporation and community for a generation to come. And it is happening right before our eyes. Tune in today to this very important discussion on The Public Square®.
