When the Oath Of Office Fails: How Long-Term Border Non-Enforcement, Emergency Governance, and Norm Erosion Undermine the Republic

from Craig Bushon Show · host Spreely Media

On today’s show, before we talk about borders, politics, or policy, we need to talk about something far more fundamental: the oath of office.Every public official in the United States swears an oath to support and defend the Constitution. That oath is not symbolic. It is the legal foundation of their authority.When laws go unenforced for decades, when emergencies never end, and when discretion replaces duty, the problem is not just policy failure—it is oath failure.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info. Can the pulpit become a political weapon? In this episode, Craig Bushon examines the growing intersection of faith, politics, and constitutional government, asking whether modern political ideologies should ever be preached in the name of Jesus Christ. This conversation explores free will, civic responsibility, the role of Christian leaders, and the importance of preserving both the integrity of the Gospel and the constitutional framework of the American Republic.Disclaimer: The views expressed in this episode are editorial opinions of the Craig Bushon Show Media Team.
