December 7, 1941 is a day that will live in infamy. After September 11, 2001, I thought that day would live in infamy as well. However, it appears the American people have not learned the lessons from that day that many of us hoped.
To this day airline travelers suffer the spying and indignity of the TSA checkpoints, which both internal audits and external reporting have shown to have failed between 80-95% of the time. After allowing 20 “students” to enter this country and overstay their visas, 19 of which who then conducted the attack, one of which did make his flight, we still have leaders in this nation that show no concern about the flood of people illegally entering this country. If that weren’t bad enough, those same people are also allowing them to stay after they have been convicted of even violent crimes after illegally entering the country. I guess when all those signs of “Never Forget!” were posted across the country, they didn’t really mean it. - 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 However, over the last few decades, the role of the parent in these decisions has been replaced by experts.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?

As I’ve frequently pointed out here, most of Washington’s control comes from the bribery of both states and the individuals who lives in those states. To paraphrase an old saying, live by the bribe, die by the bribe. - Live 4PM ET with Host Paul Engel @CyberEngel @OutLoudNews

When is the use of lethal force legal in the United State? In every state of the union, lethal force can be used to protect an innocent part from an imminent threat of death or serious bodily injury. But is that the only time? A recently signed bill in Tennessee defines other situations where deadly force can lawfully be used within the state.

I often talk about how citizens have much more influence over state and local governments than over the federal one. Let’s look at some examples of the power of state and local governments. - Live 4PM ET with Host Paul Engel @CyberEngel @OutLoudNews
