A guide for new readers

Start Here

TJA explores faith, America’s founding principles, and the rule of law. I am Carl N. Merkle, a San Antonio author and retired CPA. This is a growing public project: begin with a short explanation, then follow the documents as deeply as you wish.

Meet Carl Merkle

My background, the memoir KIDNAPPED, and why I founded Truth, Justice & Accountability.

This land needs healing

My Christian conviction, the call of 2 Chronicles 7:14, and a practical path toward growing character.

God and the founding documents

The words of the Declaration and Constitution, with sources and my Christian interpretation.

The court story

Begin with the ten-page introduction or executive summary. Use the source archive to examine my allegations.

Tyranny and accountability

Read the Bible, early American quotations, and the Texas Constitution on the limits of human power.

Faith in American history

A sourced timeline of religious life, the founding era, and later developments.

A project that will become easier to explore

The source archive is extensive and is still being organized. Over time I plan to turn parts of that record into short, documented stories, articles, graphics, and studies. The aim is to let readers understand one issue at a time and check the sources behind it.
