Late May in the United States is usually a time of cook-outs and remembrance as we memorialize those who gave their lives in service to this country. 2024 however, should be remember for another death, the death of courts of justice.
First it was the International Criminal Court. Prosecutor court Karim Khan sought arrest warrants for the leader of both Hamas and Israel, alleging he had reasonable grounds to believe they had criminal responsibility for war crimes. Then, barely a week later, Judge Merchan concluded his biased case against Donald Trump with biased instructions to the jury, which found Mr. Trump guilty on all 34 counts. After some consideration, I realized that these cases are so similar, they could be fraternal twins.
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 However, over the last few decades, the role of the parent in these decisions has been replaced by experts.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?

Contrary to all the claims of an “American democracy”, the United States and each of the Several States are republics. This means that we hire representatives, who exercise our power in our name, via elections. As our faith in our elections have crumbled, so does the republic. - Live 4PM ET with Host Paul Engel @CyberEngel @OutLoudNews

There has been a lot of talk about misinformation lately. Who gets to decide what is and isn’t misinformation, its danger to our “democracy”, and how to deal with it. Sometimes lost in the discussion is the very important point, if someone is deciding what is true, then we are not free and independent to decide for ourselves. - Live 4PM ET with Host Paul Engel @CyberEngel @OutLoudNews

Politics is a dirty business. Third-world politics is famous for being a blood sport, literally. When the lies and cheating don’t work, political opponents are simply… eliminated. But that is not how things are supposed to work here in America. Yet there have been two attempts on the life of Donald Trump, and now there are reports of an additional five assassinations teams in the country. Add to that reports that an Alaska had treated six Supreme Court Justices, and you should see a disturbing trend in America’s political “discourse”. This is not the first time American politics has been threatened with violence, and I doubt it will be the last. - Live 4PM ET with Host Paul Engel @CyberEngel @OutLoudNews
