“The Constitution is not a suicide pact.”
America was founded on the conviction that liberty can only survive when government is restrained. Madison, Washington, and the Framers built a structure of checks, balances, and freedoms to guard against the rise of any ideology that seeks to make government its tool.
Today, that structure is under assault. From religious dominionism and socialism, to radical identity politics, Islamism, and runaway bureaucracy — each force attempts to bend the Constitution to compel belief, speech, or loyalty.
The Constitution is not a suicide pact. It was designed to protect conscience, preserve freedom, and limit power. Our duty now is to defend that design — through clear arguments, strong legislation, and an engaged citizenry ready to stand for liberty.
The Republic We Must Keep
When government is captured by ideology, liberty dies.
Whether through socialism, religious dominionism, radical identity politics, or bureaucratic overreach — the Constitution stands as our shield.
We must defend it.
Defending liberty against every ideology that seeks to hijack government power —
restoring the Constitution as the shield of the free.
