In a case that would make Greta Thunberg proud, 16 young people ages five to 22 successfully sued the state of Montana for failing to protect their right to a “clean and healthful environment.” Their entire case rested upon the utterly unmeasurable and unquantifiable claim that the Treasure State’s Environmental Policy Act has “harmed” them since it precludes local officials from incorporating “greenhouse gas emissions and corresponding impacts to the climate” into their evaluation process when considering energy project approvals.
In other words, since Montana passed laws to prevent ecofascists from crushing the fossil fuel industry in the state, these children sued. Nothing like using gullible kids to promote a Marxist political agenda, which is what the climate change cult is really all about.

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 However, over the last few decades, the role of the parent in these decisions has been replaced by experts.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’ve all heard of the D.C. swamp, but did you know there’s a legal swamp as well? Call it the deep state, swamp, or just precedent, the entrenched bureaucracy of our so-called justice system is just as bad as the political swamp Trump ran against. - Live 4PM ET with Host Paul Engel @CyberEngel @OutLoudNews

We all know we have to pay for government. We’re reminded every April 15th of that fact. Some of you may even remember Article I, Section 8, Clause 1 and Congress' authority to lay and collect taxes. But is anyone paying attention to the actual cost of government? And just who is responsible for making sure those costs are reasonable? - Live 4PM ET with Host Paul Engel @CyberEngel @OutLoudNews

As the end of the current Supreme Court term approaches, we’ve seen a few important decisions published. Expect more during the month of June. Add to that the latest antisemitic attack in D.C., and it seems obvious that we are living in interesting times. - Live 4PM ET with Host Paul Engel @CyberEngel @OutLoudNews
