The Preamble to the Constitution lists the reasons why it was drafted. The second item on that list is to establish justice:
We the People of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defence, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America.
But have We the People, fulfilled that promise? If not, are we going to do something about it? After all, if one of the reasons we ordained and established this Constitution for the United States of America is to establish justice, shouldn’t we also make sure it fulfills that promise, and all of the purposes behind it?

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 However, over the last few decades, the role of the parent in these decisions has been replaced by experts.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?

In our justice system, we have triers of fact and courts of appeal. Triers of facts are things like Grand Juries and District Courts, where the facts and evidence comes to light. As opposed to courts of appeal who try the process. When we let the triers of facts do their jobs, we can often find some very interesting facts. - Live 4PM ET with Host Paul Engel @CyberEngel @OutLoudNews

According to the Merriam-Webster Online Dictionary:
Fact: something that has actual existence
Check: to compare with a source, original, or authority
So when something is being “fact checked”, it would be reasonable that someone was comparing whether there was a source or authority that something actually existed. However, that has not been true for modern “fact checkers”. - Live 4PM ET with Host Paul Engel @CyberEngel @OutLoudNews

There are a lot of things I'd like to see done better in this country. On that list, education is right up near the top. But is it right to break the law to improve education? That's the question I asked myself when I read the text of H.R. 5349, The "Crucial Communism Teaching Act’’. You see, while teaching the truth about communism's history is important, should this bill pass Congress and be signed, it cannot be the supreme law of the land, because it was not made pursuant to the Constitution of the United States.
