I’m Mad As Hell And I’m Not Going To Take It Anymore!

October 16, 2001 ~ That’s it! I’m finished – finished with all of the stupidity and apathy in this nation! Alright, we’ve been kicked – but we’re not down! But dammit, when is America and her sheeple going to wake up to that fact? If this is war – then let”s start acting like it!

No, I don”t mean by running back to the movies and the ball games – although all of us need a break – I mean by pulling ourselves up by our bootstraps (if you young punks even know what I”m talking about) and getting about the business of BEING Americans! Continue reading

What In the World Has Happened To The America We Grew Up In?

It has been but just a few months since I put pen to paper and wrote and posted the following, and yet it seems to grow in importance with each passing day. Read it for the first time, or read it again. The end draws near. People, get ready… ~ Ed.

To Granny and Cat…

April 9, 2019 ~ I have been in a state of proverbial ‘funk’ for nearly a year now. You’ll remember last July when I had made the decision to shut down Federal Observer after seventeen years of publication – only to slowly change gears for God knows what reason. Over these past nine-plus months, the site – although looking much the same – has taken new directions – or in some cases readdressing old topics – which still drive me to this day. I’ll not draw you a map today – you may review the site on your own time and come to your own conclusion… and that is where I stand at this point – conclusions – or more specifically – the Conclusion of this once great nation. MAGA? Forget it – it will never happen. We near the end of the journey. Continue reading

I am an Arizona resident…

May 3, 2010 ~ To begin with, I applaud Arizona Governor Jan Brewer and the 2009-2010 State Legislation for doing the job, that the Federal Government won’t to do (Hmmmmmm – where did I come up that line???), establishing the rule of law in Arizona. Governor Brewer’s predecessor, and, now Secretary of Homeland “Security” in Washington DeCeipt, wouldn’t do the job, while she served in our state as Federal Prosecutor, and as Governor. Maybe it’s time to replace Napolitano with someone who will do the job that she won’t do. I’ll not cry out, “Come back Shane. Come back!” We don’t want her here.

Let’s see now, if anyone in Arizona (and the rest of the nation, for that matter) are pulled over for a traffic violation, the law-enforcement person, will ask for your driver’s license, your registration, and your proof of insurance. Hmmmmm – good beginning. Continue reading

Bennett: War, What is it good for? Absolutely NOTHING!

There are times then I find it worthwhile to republish an old column that I wrote – back a long time ago. Why? To show off? NO – to show that little has changed in this nation or around the world. It has only gotten worse.

What you are about to read is quite dated – but it shows that we are living in circles these days. I will assume that I wrote and posted this piece nearly 20 years ago on the first generation Federal Observer. Tell me what has changed! ~ Jeffrey Bennett, Editor

Can you explain this to me? As I rocked my granddaughter to sleep the other night, I wept for this little girl. Second thoughts anyone? No child of any deserves this!

The following email was received by The Federal Observer in response to a picture depicting a dead child, mutilated, with her foot dangling… Continue reading

Going Faster And Faster: The Acceleration Of Decline

There are times in the 27 years that I have maintained a series of websites, that the time goes by that I choose to republish and article that has something to SAY. The following was published July 15, 2002 on the original Federal Observer, in the category, ‘Village of the Damned‘ (so named for Hillary Clintons’ reference to “It takes a Village to raise a child.”) No thanks ma’am – leave our children in the hands of their parents. ~ Editor

Get your children OUT of the System – NOW

One must be careful in remembering better days. Memory presents an improving mirror, smoothing rough edges of rougher times, giving a warm glow to things that were less roseate when they happened. Like a good editor, it revises things for the better. Thus one recalls, or half-imagines, the idyllic boyhood in Mississippi, the favorite grove where one played in the slanting afternoon sunlight that probably wasn’t as golden as one recalls, with childhood companion who perhaps weren’t as admirable as they now seem. One forgets, or half forgets, the drunken parents and the poverty and hookworm. And so one must tread cautiously when pondering a past in which all things were better, cleaner, and purer. Yet…yet sometimes things were better, and sometimes things do decay. Sometimes a society does go from better to bad to worse. I wonder. Continue reading

The Deliberate Dumbing Down of America: How They Stole Our Children’s Minds and How We Take Them Back

For generations, America produced innovators, inventors, and independent thinkers—people who challenged authority, built industries, and made this country the most powerful force in the world. But today? The average high school graduate can barely read at an eighth-grade level, lacks basic financial literacy, and has no clue how their own government works. This wasn’t an accident. It was designed.

Through a series of calculated decisions – removing civics, gutting traditional academics, replacing knowledge with indoctrination – they have deliberately dumbed us down. And the most infuriating part? We paid for our own destruction through taxpayer-funded education, massive teachers’ unions, and globalist influence over curriculum.

This is the blueprint of how they did it – and how we break the cycle. Continue reading

Bill Gates Says AI Will Replace Doctors, Teachers Within 10 Years — and Claims Humans Won’t Be Needed ‘For Most Things’

Bill Gates predicted that advancements in artificial intelligence will significantly reduce humanity’s role in many traditional tasks such as medicine and education — and the seismic shift could happen in less than 10 years.

During a recent interview with comedian Jimmy Fallon on NBC’s “The Tonight Show,” the Microsoft co-founder described a future where humans are no longer necessary “for most things” because AI technology will readily perform tasks that currently require specialized human skills.

Today, expertise in fields such as medicine and education remains “rare,” Gates said, adding that those areas depend on “a great doctor” or “a great teacher.”

Microsoft co-founder Bill Gates says that advancements in artificial intelligence will eventually negate the need for doctors and teachers. Continue reading

4 Reasons Doctors Are Leaving Medicine

The healthcare industry is facing a growing crisis as more doctors leave their jobs, citing burnout, financial pressures, and changing work environments. Physician shortages are becoming a concern, impacting patient care and healthcare access. Here are four key reasons why doctors are leaving their professions at an alarming rate. Continue reading

Smith: It’s Time to Impeach These Commie Rat Bastard Judges or Just Hang ‘Em High!

Nothing in the Constitution has given them [the federal judges] a right to decide for the Executive, more than to the Executive to decide for them. . . . The opinion which gives to the judges the right to decide what laws are constitutional and what not, not only for themselves, in their own sphere of action, but for the Legislature and Executive also in their spheres, would make the Judiciary a despotic branch.” ~ Thomas Jefferson’s letter to Abigail Adams, September 11th 1804

The U.S. Judiciary and our court system at every level has undergone a metamorphosis throughout the last six decades that has it resembling something one is more likely to find in a Third World Banana Republic or the old Soviet Union rather than in America, a country where Justice was once thought to be blind and our courts actually used to work to protect America and Her people instead of protecting Her enemies as we witness today. I am sickened to the depths of a country outhouse’s manure pit to know that there are thousands of men just like Judge James Boasberg who are all too willing to betray their oath to the Constitution [flawed and damaged at it already is] and America as if it is of no more consequence than their morning dump on the toilet.

The American people could make this change pretty damned quick, if they would only start exacting a real, meaningful, hard consequence from these rat bastards. And should they remain incalcitrant from doing the right thing for America, they should be made to suffer severe consequences, first by way of exhausting all legal means and finally dangling at the end of a rope handled by the rightfully angry American patriots who have long grown tired of witnessing their country taken apart little by little and piece by piece, while their own friends and family members are made to suffer by way of these traitors’ anti-American actions and Machiavellian mechanisms.

Dickens: Treasonous America? “It Can’t Happen Here…”

It Can’t Happen Here! ~ Frank Zappa & The Mothers of Invention… (1966)

I chose this piece precisely because of the intentional discord and how it typifies the dissonance in our republic, particularly in Congress, the opposite of progress.

America will never be a Socialist or Communist country.” ~ Donald J Trump… 2016

It can’t happen here…

Well, guess what campers… It did… Continue reading

Smith: There’s No Such Thing as “Hate Speech”; There’s Only Free Speech in America

It would be beyond fantastic and amazing, if everyone in America could get along whether they have political differences or not, but unfortunately there have been a multitude of people in our country who have strived to divide and conquer by way of coalitions of minorities in all areas of all issues, and E Pluribus Unum be damned. It’s simply not our reality in modern day United States, and it looks like it’s going to remain this way for quite some time. Continue reading

Smith: WAR – What is it Good For?

I hate war as much as anyone, probably more, especially when they are senseless wars conducted for no other reason than no one was around with the guts enough to stop them or those who started them. With that said, everyone has to know that some wars are simply unavoidable, because a tyrant intent on making war doesn’t give his victim a choice in the matter.

That’s where we find the world in regard to Ukraine and Russia. Putin wants what Ukraine has and so, Ukraine has no choice but fight or surrender and die and even slower death. Already we see prison camps in Russian occupied Eastern Ukraine and their torture chambers.

Tyranny is in the ascendant not just in Russia and China but even the European Union too, which makes it hard to want to side with them on anything; but we still have a chance to turn things around in Europe as the new alt right and populist movements are now taking hold to some degree in places like Germany and France [the U.K. appears it will present much more work].

Without God, There is No TRUE Respect for Human Life

Since my title is bound to inspire criticism that I’m a “God botherer,” I’ll preface what follows by stating that I wasn’t always the halo-adorned, floating-in-the-ether desert mystic (without the sand or heat) you behold today. I wasn’t raised with faith, and as a 12-year-old was an agnostic who’d say, “I’d never believe or disbelieve in anything there’s no proof of.” Later on I’d be rather dismissive of theists, actually, viewing them as God botherers myself, though we didn’t have that term or as many Richard Dawkins-like secularist warriors back then. I suppose we were, relatively speaking, handicapped in our exercise of supercilious anti-theism.

But that has changed — and I’ve changed… Continue reading

Dickens: Merka’s New Curse Words… Oh, the Humanity!!!!!

WARNING: this post contains language that you may find offensive – (Especially if you’re liberal!)

I want to introduce some new curse words from the Merkan Left’s lexicon. The CMC and Congress, the opposite of progress, use these words glibly in conversation to agitate their constituent base and inform the Right-Wingnuts of the connotation change from acceptable to repugnant. Continue reading
