How many times have you heard it? Someone decides not to participate because they don’t want to be on some list? In my experience it’s not the list, but the label associated with the list that makes people nervous.
Labels are lazy. They are an easy way to dismiss someone or something without actually having to investigate it. Label someone a terrorist and you can throw due process out the window. Label someone a racist and you can simply ignore them. Label someone a threat to democracy and you can do just about anything to keep them out of office. In other words, labels allow us to be the worst kind of prejudiced filth, but feel good about ourselves. - Live 4PM ET with Host Paul Engel @CyberEngel @OutLoudNews

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 However, over the last few decades, the role of the parent in these decisions has been replaced by experts.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

I’ve heard it said that if you don’t have your health, you don’t have anything. With all of the government meddling in our healthcare system, I think it’s worth some time looking at how it’s doing. - Live 4PM ET with Host Paul Engel @CyberEngel @OutLoudNews

When I talk about gang wars in D.C., I’m not talking about the bloods vs the crips. No, I’m talking the Donkeys vs the Elephants. Today, I’ll cover some perfect examples of partisan politics trumping the law, the Constitution, and sometimes, even justice itself. - Live 4PM ET with Host Paul Engel @CyberEngel @OutLoudNews

Most of us probably remember the TV Game Show “Are You Smarter Than a Fifth Grader”, where contestants attempted to answer fifth grade questions for prizes. The answers given were often hilarious. What if they weren’t fifth grade questions, but civics questions? Would that answer the American people give still be funny?
