UNBIASED University is in session! While Jordan is on maternity leave, she’s breaking down the most critical aspects of the United States government — the Constitution, the Bill of Rights, the three branches of the federal government, presidential elections, the evolution of political parties, and more.
In this episode of UNBIASED Politics, we explore two foundational constitutional principles that continue to shape major legal and political debates: separation of church and state and due process. What does the First Amendment actually require when it comes to religion in public life, and how have courts interpreted the boundaries between government and faith? We break down the Establishment Clause and the Free Exercise Clause, examining how the Supreme Court has navigated issues involving public schools, religious expression, and government funding.
We also take a deep dive into due process, the constitutional guarantee that the government must follow fair procedures and respect certain fundamental rights before depriving someone of life, liberty, or property. From procedural protections in courtrooms to broader questions about substantive rights, this episode provides a clear, nonpartisan explanation of how these doctrines developed and why they remain central to constitutional law today.
