Do you remember the grammar school game, Telephone? The teacher would whisper something into one child’s ear, who would then whisper it into the next child’s ear, and on and on until the message got all the way around the room. Then the teacher would compare what they had whispered into the first child’s ear with what the last child heard, and it would be completely different.
Our judicial system today works like a bad case of the game “Telephone,” the idea that small errors occur when something like a message is replicated, compounded with each new replica until the original message is lost. When it comes to our judicial system, the effects are disastrous. In the case of Groff v. Dejoy, Postmaster General, most people see a win for religious liberty. I, however, see another generation of a compounding replication error in judicial opinion that, while granting the correct outcome today, lays the groundwork for the destruction of our rights and the rule of law tomorrow.

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 However, over the last few decades, the role of the parent in these decisions has been replaced by experts.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