When I was a child, I spoke as a child, I understood as a child, I thought as a child; but when I became a man, I put away childish things.
The New King James Version (1 Co 13:11). (1982). Thomas Nelson.
It appears that many Americans have failed to put away their childish things. From childish demonstrations to vandalism temper tantrums, these appear to be overgrown children pretending to have grown up. Then there are those who are fighting against stopping waste, fraud, and abuse, acting as if those were good things. Until We the People start hiring people who have actually become men and women in Congress, the children will keep running the nation. God help us all. - 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 However, over the last few decades, the role of the parent in these decisions has been replaced by experts.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 look at the recent legal debates about the powers of the President, I’m reminded of a quote from Mather Byles. A quote you may know better from its paraphrase in the movie The Patriot. “Which is better — to be ruled by one tyrant three thousand miles away or by three thousand tyrants one mile away?” Of course, there is one profound and fundamental difference between that discussion and ours today. While there are many who think of Donald Trump as a tyrant, he is the elected President of the United States, with all of the executive powers of the country. The tyrants in the judicial branch, and others, are usurping powers from another. - Live 4PM ET with Host Paul Engel @CyberEngel @OutLoudNews

Ronald Reagan once said “a government bureau is the nearest thing to eternal life we’ll ever see on this earth.” I believe what Reagan was is true, but there’s another question that needs to be asked. If that eternal life is one of salvation or damnation? - Live 4PM ET with Host Paul Engel @CyberEngel @OutLoudNews

Free speech jurisprudence has rested on shaky ground for decades in this country. Looking back at cases like Hill v. Colorado, Austin v. Reagan National Advertising of Austin, and Dobbs v. Jackson Women's Health has left a confusing and contradictory morass of precedence, most if not all of it contradicting the Constitution of the United States. With the recent case Coalition Life v. City of Carbondale, Illinois, the court had the opportunity to set the record straight once and for all. Instead, the court whiffed, and declined to even head the case.
