Is the U.S. Constitution Under Attack from the Inside?
The movie “In Search of Liberty” was created by two filmmakers who believe that the U.S. Constitution is under attack, not by a former president who attempted to overthrow the government, but by the radical left. Its screenwriter, Tom Solari, writes:
The Constitution is the policy that guaranteed this (country’s) freedom and caused (its) expansion. Yet, with our educational systems now largely in the hands of our country’s enemies, we discover generations of Americans with only the slightest knowledge of the Constitution and very little sense of its vital importance to our continued survival as a free people.
It’s undeniable that our school kids don’t receive as much exposure to the Constitution as they should. We’re cranking out semiliterate high school graduates who can’t tell you where Wisconsin is, let alone what the 4th Amendment reads.
But “Our educational systems (are) now largely in the hands of our country’s enemies?” That’s quite an accusation. There are 3.0 million U.S. public school teachers and another 500K in private schools. There are 1.5 million college and university professors. They all work within a framework of hundreds of thousands of administers, deans, headmasters, advisors, developers of curriculum, etc. I know personally many dozens of them, and not a single one seems like an enemy of the United States.
Of course, this needs to be taken within the context of Tom’s other beliefs, e.g., that the insurrection was instigated by Antifa, that the Deep State removed Donald Trump, an honest and effective servant of the American people, and that COVID-19 and its vaccinations are part of a government plot.
Needless to say, I’m not on board.
