Synopsis

America's Constitution has a hidden history of both visionary founders and opportunists who defied its principles. Senator Mike Lee uncovers the dramatic, little-known stories behind six essential constitutional provisions, revealing their original intent and their decline. He shows how their neglect fuels federal power abuses today, illustrating with examples like the Origination Clause, the Fourth Amendment, and the Legislative Powers Clause. This book makes clear how misinterpretation has led to significant governmental overreach.
