Looking around the nation, I see many people who either have given up, or are on the verge of doing so. They've invested countless amounts of time and money, yet still see liberty waning in America. The long hard fight is nothing new in America, and is exemplified by one man, John Quincy Adams.
After serving as our sixth President, the son of John Adams won a seat in the House of Representatives on an anti-slavery platform. Sadly, at that time the House was 80% pro slavery. Bill after bill, resolution after resolution that John Quincy Adams submitted failed. His fight for legislation to ban the slave trade was so tenacious that the House passed a rule nicknamed "The John Quincy Adams Gag Rule" in an attempt to silence him, but he never gave up. When asked how he persevered in the face of every-present opposition, he observed "Duty is ours. Results are God's".
So as we wrestle with every-present opposition to our liberty, as we wonder if we will ever win, I would remind every freedom loving American of John Quincy Adam's words... The duty is ours, the results are God's. - Live 4PM ET with Host Paul Engel @cyberengel.

Who is in charge of your children? That has been a perennial question that has grown in importance over the last few years. When I was a child, it was understood that, with rare exceptions, parents were in charge of a child’s upbringing. This included medical, religious, and educational decisions. However, over the last few decades, the role of the parent in these decisions has been replaced by experts. What happens when the goal of the experts differs from those of the parents? Who decides the future of the rising generations? It was understood that the state acted in loco parentis, in place of the parents, only for the safety of the child. A recent case in U.S. District Court shows that be it health departments, child services, schools, or even the courts. Government not only believes they know better than the parents, they are more than willing to act in loco parentis tyrannis.

With the release of ChatGPT and other artificial intelligence (AI) applications, there has been a lot of speculation and downright assertions about our future. With over 30 years of experience in Information Technology (IT), not more than a passing understanding of AIs, I've come to the conclusion that much of what I've heard is more science fiction than fact. A recent court case decided in the D.C. District Court revolved around one very important question. Do AIs have rights?
In this third installment of the three-part series on the branches of government, we look at the role of the third and weakest branch. At least that is what our Founding Fathers thought of it. What is the role of the federal judiciary? What are the extent of their powers, how do they related to the other two branches of government, and why is a proper understanding of the role of the judiciary critical if the United States is to remain a constitutional republic?

When it comes to freedom of speech, there are two things that generate a fair amount of controversy. First is yelling “Fire” in a crowded theater and second is burning the United States flag. Recently, Donald Trump issued an Executive Order about flag burning. So let's take a look at the order and some of the history around flag burning.
It seems most people look to the federal government to fix every problem. I think that’s because they are under the false impression that the federal government can do anything it wants. This has led to a lot pain and suffering over the years. - Live 4PM ET with Host Paul Engel @CyberEngel @OutLoudNews

I’m not sure if there have been more acts of violence lately, or they’ve just been covered more in the media. What many of these acts have in common may surprise you. While there are plenty of people complaining about the gun, I think the problem is our immaturity. - Live 4PM ET with Host Paul Engel @CyberEngel @OutLoudNews
