After the midterm elections, it is quite clear that many in government at all levels have gotten the message. The American people will put up with just about anything, at least in certain locations. With this confirmation that they will not be held accountable for anything they do, we see not the political class, but the pundit and media classes as well, flooring the throttle and heading America full speed over the cliff of tyranny.
In my mind, there are two ways we can see this situation. First, things just aren’t bad enough. Maybe there aren’t enough of us who lived through Jimmy Carter and David Dinkins (mayor of New York City) to see the pain we have in store for us. The other possibility is that a significant percentage of the American people like being ruled.
Why deal with all of that message responsibility stuff when those in government promise to take care of you from cradle to grave? And, of course, they always have “experts,” and who cares how often these so-called experts have screwed things up in the past. Either way, it seems quite evident that the American people are not ready to return to freedom and liberty. We can only hope that changes in the near future.

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 However, over the last few decades, the role of the parent in these decisions has been replaced by experts.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

We all have people we disagree with. The problem isn’t that we disagree, but with how we do it. Do we resort to violence, shaming, or silencing our opposition. Then again, if both sides resort to these tactics, things get pretty ugly, very quickly. So how do we deal with opposition? - Live 4PM ET with Host Paul Engel @CyberEngel @OutLoudNews

Have we survived an American coop? The fake Russia hoax? Biden’s DOJ labeling parents “domestic terrorists”? Are these isolated incidents or part of a larger plan? I try not to put too much trust in conspiracies, but I think these events, and a few others, are worth taking a closer look. - Live 4PM ET with Host Paul Engel @CyberEngel @OutLoudNews

Most people seem to think that the people they are voting for are “leaders”, but is that true? Sure, we expect those in office to watch over things, make sure the right laws are passed and then enforced. But in a constitutional republic, are the people we hire supposed to be watching us, or are we supposed to be watching the watchers? - Live 4PM ET with Host Paul Engel @CyberEngel @OutLoudNews
