U. S. Secret Service, Error Prone?
Once again, the U.S. Secret Service’s ability to protect the president is questionable. Various congressional committees will soon conduct inquisitions. Representatives and senators will stand tall, pop out their chests, pontificate, and strut about like peafowl only to lay blame. We the people will watch another dog and pony show. The pre-coordinated, pre-rehearsed play’s expenditures […]

Ain’t America Grand?
In today’s United States, a sixty-five year old man is at liberty to self-identify as a sixteen-year-old girl. Across the nation within private, public, and non-profit sectors, some decision-makers agree with and support that man’s actualization. In a few of those instances, “she,” with completely intact and fully functional male genitalia, is eligible to […]
THE DOGE REPORT: EPILOGUE
DOGE confirmed the suspicions and validated the beliefs of many Americans, that the United States government is a self-absorbed, self-serving, perpetual motion, behemoth. Its Legislative, Executive, and Judicial Branches became dense, thick, corpulent, and authoritarian. Like all monsters, the bureaucracy got bigger and stronger which necessitated the consumption of more and more — money. There […]
Code of Ethics for Government Service
The U.S. House Resolution stated, “Resolved by the House of Representatives {the Senate concurring), That it is the sense of the Congress that the following Code of Ethics should be adhered to by all Government employees, including office holders:” The U.S. Senate, by unanimous consent, “understands and intends that this resolution apply to every servant […]
THE DOGE REPORT: PRESS REPORTING
Depending on the medium and sources by which one receives one’s news, there is discussion whether or not the reporting of DOGE’s actions and effects is accurate. “Four hostile newspapers are more to be feared than a hundred thousand bayonets.” — Napoleon Bonaparte* “If the government wishes some fact to remain unknown, almost all major […]
What is an American?
As we celebrate the 249th year from when British colonial subjects, who called themselves Americans, declared their independence from both king and country, might we ask ourselves, “What does it mean to be an American?” We are, as written in that July 4, 1776 document, “created equal” and bestowed by our “Creator with certain unalienable […]
THE DOGE REPORT: EDUCATION
President Trump plans to use DOGE in his justification for eliminating the U.S. Department of Education. Recently Mr. Trump stated America’s youth ranked 40th out of forty other industrialized nations. As such, he wants to return the education of U.S. youth to the states. “Some recent studies indicate the United States has the best education […]
THE DOGE REPORT: SOCIAL SECURITY
How hard is it to create an App, write an algorithm, modify lines of code, or develop a computer program that will identify multiple users of a single social security number, multiple social security numbers used by one individual, and social security payments to deceased persons? Media reports state that DOGE found billions of dollars […]
THE DOGE REPORT: ELON MUSK – PRESIDENT TRUMP’S LOBBYIST
Recent video and photographic news reports show members of Congress and other individuals protesting against DOGE, some carrying signs that read “Nobody Elected Musk” and “Nobody Elected Elon.” The protestors and Congresspersons seem bothered that an unelected individual has access to and undue influence over American government functions. One must call to their attention that […]
