| 0:00.0 | It's Tuesday, September 6, 2022. I'm Albert Molar and this is the briefing, a daily |
| 0:10.8 | analysis of news and events from a Christian worldview. |
| 0:14.0 | Few issues are more politically fundamental than constitutional issues, |
| 0:18.0 | and constitutional issues are right in the forefront of headlines this week. Recent events, not only in the United States |
