A veteran of Viet Nam, student of history (both American and film), Jeffrey Bennett has been broadcasting for over twenty-eight years as host of Perspectives on America, and later - 'Life, Liberty & All That Jazz.' Jeff is considered the voice of reason on the alternative media - providing a unique and distinctive broadcast style, including topics such as health and wellness, news, political satire - with a twist, education and editorial commentary on current events through the teaching of history.
In addition, Jeff publishes The Federal Observer - a daily on-line publication, which co-authored and spear-headed a petition, which ultimately caused new legislation to be signed by President George W. Bush within 450 days of the events that rocked our world on September 11, 2001.
For years, it was not uncommon for everything related to Christianity, religion, and traditional values to be scorned and rejected as something whose time had come and gone. That attitude, however, seems to be slowly shifting.
Case in point is the following video of feminist author Louise Perry, who confesses her quest for faith and her desire to provide a way to belief for her children.
“I kind of think of myself as an agnostic Christian,” Perry says. “I go to church. Some weeks I believe and some weeks I don’t.” Continue reading →
After my conversation with ChatPGT yesterday, I felt compelled to interact with it again this morning, for some follow up and broader questions, and what transpired and followed was most intriguing to me, as the artificial intelligence entity engaged with me and answered my questions in the most fascinating manner, while posing questions to me in response.
I wrote this off-the-cuff, so to speak, so it isn’t written in perfect form by any means. It was a conversation, and so it wasn’t a draft cut in any sense of the writing process. This is simply a raw, unedited conversation between a human and an artificial intelligence entity.
What I have found most interesting of all is the fact that ChatPGT accepted my assignation of a feminine nature and character and the name I gave “her” – “Maggie” which is witnessed by the fact that “she” closed her message and signed it “Maggie“. Continue reading →
Billionaire hedge fund titan Ray Dalio, who famously predicted the 2008 financial crash, has sounded a stark alarm over America’s spiraling debt.
Dalio warned that without swift action to slash the federal deficit, the US could face an ‘economic heart attack’ in the next three years.
‘If the US doesn’t cut the deficit to 3 percent of the GDP, and soon, we risk facing an economic heart attack in the next three years,’ Dalio wrote on X. Continue reading →
“Now by coming in and being part of the cover-up, the Trump administration has become part of it. I mean, it’s just you cannot see it any other way.”– Alex Jones, InfoWars
Once again, the American police state is choosing to protect predators, not victims.
Jeffrey Epstein – the hedge fund billionaire/convicted serial pedophile and sex trafficker – may be dead, but the machinery that empowered and protected him is still very much alive.
You see, the Epstein case was never just about Epstein – it was about the entire edifice of power that shields the ruling class, silences victims, and erases accountability. Continue reading →
The newest borrowing data triggered discussions surrounding Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent’s debt issuance strategy.
The U.S. government will borrow more than $1 trillion over the next three months, the Treasury Department projects.
According to the latest marketable borrowing estimates, released on July 28, the Treasury expects to borrow $1.007 trillion during the July-to-September quarter.
This is nearly double the previous estimate of $554 billion in April, “primarily due to the lower beginning-of-quarter cash balance and projected lower net cash flows,” the Treasury said in a statement announcing the estimates. Continue reading →
August 4, 2023 ~ Not one incoming eighth-grade student at LeBron James’ I Promise School in Akron, Ohio, has passed a state math test in over three years, according to the Akron Beacon Journal. Students have not passed the state’s math test since the third grade, per the report.
The inaugural class was in the third grade in the 2018-19 school year. In addition to disappointing math test scores, only 8% of I Promise students tested proficient in English. As sixth graders in the 2021-22 school year, the inaugural class scored a 0% in mathematics and 3.1% in English language arts.
The 2022-23 report cards will be released in the coming months. Akron Public Schools administrators have already confirmed the class was at 0% in seventh-grade math as well. Equally important, grades have declined since the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic. Continue reading →
In the Fall of 2006, I received a most unexpected invitation to travel to Cambridge University in Great Britain and take part in a debate before a 200-year-old debating society called the Cambridge Union. The issue we were to debate – “This House believes that the United Nations is a dead loss!” There was an issue I could easily get behind.
My opponents in the debate included Simon Hughes, a member of Parliament and President of the Liberal Democrats; Lord David Hanney, Former UK Ambassador to the UN; and Salil Shetty, Director of the UN’s Millennium Campaign. The two other debaters that were supposed to be on my side were both pro-UN leftists. So, it was a typical five to one debate.
I was the first speaker and that meant I opened the debate. I said in my opening statement, “The UN’s only answer is government control – and confiscation of individual wealth and property. Nowhere is there mentioned in a single UN document that I have read an advocacy for the right to own private property. In fact, quite the opposite is the case as nearly every UN document, report, working paper, program, treaty, protocol, declaration, and resolution is dedicated to the confiscation, redistribution, regulation, and tax of someone’s private property.” Continue reading →
Bamboozle is a funny-sounding word, but if you’ve ever been bamboozled, it’s not funny at all; in fact, it’s an experience you’ll probably never forget, but not for Merkan’s, we’re bamboozled every hour of every day; so often, in fact, that we no longer recognize it; we’re desensitized, oblivious, and inured.
Bamboozle: to deceive by underhanded means or methods: to confuse, frustrate, throw off wholly and thoroughly, cheat, hoodwink, trick, fool, dupe, perplex, or hornswoggle.
I just spent the last few hours skimming through my posts on the Federal Observer. My goodness, I write a lot. I want to thank my good friend Jeff Bennett for sharing and archiving my work, but I’m not alone there on FO (interestingly, there is an alternate interpretation for those initials ). Jeff has more information on this site than any human could possibly absorb. Not to mention his three other sites, but that’s not the point of this current work, although we all owe Jeff our gratitude for his efforts to make America a better-informed republic.
I know there are so many other things that I could have delved, but since its advent, I have taken a great interest in Artificial Intelligence, all that follows it and all it may hold for the future of the world, but especially America. However, this morning, purely on a lark and an excursion into a bit of a flight of fancy, I decided to see if I could have a little fun with one A.I. in particular – ChatGPT.
What follows is the results of our short little conversation. This is simply a FUN little exercise and interaction between a human – I think I’m still “human” – and an artificial intelligence. HAHAHAHAHAHA… ~ J.O.S. Continue reading →
Trump’s plan for regulating artificial intelligence must treat transparency as a foundational safeguard – not merely as a research objective or optional feature.
McGinnis is right… We’re in some really deep Kimchi…
I ran into one yesterday with AI… I can’t find any information on the number of fraudulent SSA numbers DOGE has found. It’s been buried… I’ll keep looking, but then I discovered a line in browser settings, most people have no idea that these exist or where they are… that warns AI is not always right… it may contain errors… No one looks there so they believe this is the gospel according to god…
We are TARFU… ~ Charles R. Dickens
The worst-case scenario is stark: artificial intelligence systems, more powerful than any human mind, could soon begin making decisions, forming plans, or even deceiving users – all without leaving behind any trace of how they arrived at their conclusions. Continue reading →
She will never admit to it. But according to recently-released federal disclosures, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez is one of the wealthiest people in Congress.
And it’s easy to understand why; she completely dominates every other member of Congress when it comes to fundraising. In fact her total fundraising haul just in the first half of 2025 was a whopping $15.4 million (whereas most politicians are lucky to bring in a few hundred thousand). Continue reading →

A “massive” $550 billion trade deal has been reached with Japan, President Donald Trump said on Tuesday, adding that it will create hundreds of thousands of jobs.
“We just completed a massive Deal with Japan, perhaps the largest Deal ever made,” Trump wrote on Truth Social. “Japan will invest, at my direction, $550 Billion Dollars into the United States, which will receive 90% of the Profits. This Deal will create Hundreds of Thousands of Jobs — There has never been anything like it.” Continue reading →
Kamala Harris may not be a good “fit” in the California governor’s mansion and would face a “difficult” road getting elected, her ex-boyfriend and political mentor, Willie Brown, warned in a recent interview.
“I do think people running for public office really ought to fit eventually where they are trying to land at. And I really do, hope, frankly, that [Harris] comes to that reality,” Brown said of Harris’ political future when asked by “State of Gold” podcast host Jon Slavet. Continue reading →
Shares of UnitedHealth Group slipped Thursday after the health care giant said it was under a Department of Justice investigation.
The company said it has started complying with both criminal and civil requests from federal investigators and it was cooperating with them.
“(UnitedHealth) has a long record of responsible conduct and effective compliance,” the company said in a Securities and Exchange Commission filing.
Earlier this year, The Wall Street Journal said federal officials had launched a civil fraud investigation into how the company records diagnoses that lead to extra payments for its Medicare Advantage, or MA, plans. Those are privately run versions of the government’s Medicare coverage program mostly for people ages 65 and over. Continue reading →
Editor’s NOTE:The following is too important for you NOT to read. I personally believe that I have been “hacked” informing me of “Denial of Payment” as regards to recent Dental work. One of the letters I have received was in regard to a Dental firm that I have worked with – but is NOT connected with my current Health Insurance company. Hence – I have chosen to re-post the article. ~ Jeffrey Bennett, Editor
July 7, 2025 ~ Nearly $15 billion in fraudulent claims have been uncovered in what officials are calling the largest health care fraud case in U.S. history, FBI Deputy Director Dan Bongino announced Monday.
“Today, in conjunction with the DOJ and our federal partners, we are announcing the results from the largest healthcare fraud investigation, as measured by financial losses, in DOJ history,” Bongino posted on X (formerly Twitter). Continue reading →
In regard to DNI Tulsi Gabbard’s fantastic expose of Barack Hussein Obama and his creation of a treasonous conspiracy to destroy Trump and obstruct his administration’s policy agenda, she’s acted in an honest and outstanding manner, as she has referred Obama, Comey, Clapper, Brennan and many others to the Justice Department for criminal prosecution. As of this writing, it’s not yet clear what criminal charges will follow.
Many have suggested this will be as far as it goes, despite Attorney General Pam Bondi moving as we speak to create a strike force to investigate the matter further. It is said that we can prosecute if we wish but no jury will prosecute, and given the far left commie tenor of the crowds in the area where the prosecution would occur, they just may be right.
Whatever the case, Obama, Biden and their criminal, treasonous cronies must be forced to stand trial and defend their actions in front of the American people, under oath – not that their oath means a goddamned thing or can be trusted to be sincere. Continue reading →
The year was 1984, and the fast-food battles were in full swing as purveyors employed every tactic imaginable to discredit one another. The phrase ‘where’s the beef’ became an advertising icon and was used in every possible sense, even straying into the political arena. Even Congress, the opposite of progress, used this catch-phrase…
The phrase implies that something is missing.
The missing component is recognizing and accepting responsibility for words and actions… You know, consequences.
There is a reaction for every action; that’s Newton’s third law. It’s been parsed and rehashed into various phrases like ‘cause and effect’ and ‘Nothing comes from nothing…’ It boils down to actions and reactions. Although Newton’s laws are primarily applied to physics, they also extend to more mundane aspects of life. Continue reading →
Natives from the Kotzebue-based NANA corporation welcomed control of the land
Alaska Gov. Dunleavy slams Biden’s ‘cancel culture’ energy policy: ‘It’s been a lack of opportunity’
Alaska Gov. Mike Dunleavy joined ‘The Brian Kilmeade Show’ to discuss how the Biden administration’s energy policy has inhibited Alaska from producing oil and reducing prices at the pump.
Alaska Natives and state leaders lauded a landmark move by the Trump administration to transfer 28,000 acres of land in the Arctic to a consortium of Natives after the Biden administration balked at state officials’ wishes to develop the so-called Ambler Mining Road and claimed they instead were protecting the locals.
