About Us

Are you ready for the truth? The REAL truth of who is REALLY running this country and the world. You may be shocked or shake your head in disbelief, but the truth is that everything you have learned or been told in your lifetime has been slanted or distorted to fit an agenda. It's the way they keep the populace under control. You have been programed to believe the lies. It's hard not to when the lies and half-truths are bombarding our brains daily. Do you want to continue to be controlled or are you ready to think for yourselves? We must restore a reverence for the principles of liberty underlying the U.S. Constitution in the minds of enough Americans to tip our country back toward limited constitutional government. Those who understand the importance of the Constitution to liberty will defend it. Those who don’t, won’t. - Editor: M. Richard Maxson - Contributors: George Sontag, Zeno Potas, and Phillip Todd.

A Real Reporter's Voice Silenced

by

       George Sontag

       Everyone knows that most members of the mainstream news media are liberals; however, even staunch
left wingers should have enough integrity to fulfill their responsibilities to the public. That would be the case if we lived in an America where there  truly was a free press, but we don't. There is no such thing as journalistic independence any more in this country.Whistle blowers are routinely harrassed and prosecuted. Reporters who are trying to get to the truth are marginalized.

      Recent case in point, former CBS News reporter Sharyl Attkisson who  opened up on Sunday about her recent resignation from the network and the "unprecedented" restrictions that journalists face under this government's administration. After a 20-year career with the network, she felt that she could no longer stay with the news organization and keep her integrity intact. Her investigative reporting and questioning gained a great deal of attention for this reporter in the last few years for her coverage of Benghazi, Obamacare, and government obstruction, but it ran afoul of the government's "official" story. She said, in an interview, that she struggled to get her stories on the air, and that the problem is "part of a broader trend" happening in journalism today.

      "There's come to be a narrowing universe of stories that are desired by the broadcasts. There's just a tendency to avoid certain controversies." Attkisson said that she's not the only reporter who feels there's declining interest in investigative reporting. Journalists at CBS News and other outlets are sometimes "not happy" with the kind of work they are being told to do. "When a broadcast doesn't want a story, they don't really say those things to you," she said. "They simply don't air the story."

      We here at the American Constitutionalist have been reporting for years on this country's Corporate-Socialist propaganda. They have an agenda and we will continue to report to you until they come to take us down. We are patriots, are you?
