Sen. Rand Paul, R-Ky. asked this question to Attorney General Eric Holder: “Does President Obama have the power to authorize lethal force, such as a drone strike, against a U.S. citizen on U.S. soil, and without trial.” Our current Attorney General replied, “It is possible, I suppose, to imagine an extraordinary circumstance in which it would be necessary and appropriate under the Constitution and applicable laws of the United States for the President to authorize the military to use lethal force within the territory of the United States,”  More briefly, he answered “Yes.” Before a dam bursts, it begins with a...

Egypt is used to locusts. It happens often. But this year is different. They are calling it a 'plague' of locust. It is somewhat ironic that this is happening at approximately the same time period before the Jewish Passover as it occurred in the Bible.The Jewish 'Passover' refers to the last plague that Jehovah sent upon the Egyptians before the children of Abraham left for the Promised Land. The Jews took an unblemished white lamb and put its blood on the doors of their homes in the shape of a cross.That night a death angel went throughout Egypt and the...

He made space travel possible. He made personal computers and iPads and nearly every modern electronic devise big and small possible. And his innovations generate billions of dollars of commerce every year. Our entire technological revolution exists because of him: Robert Noyce.  Long before Gates, Jobs, and Zuckerberg, in 1957, eight brilliant men began the Fairchild Semiconductor division. The glass vacuum tube on which such modern devises as televisions, radios and telephones ran had just been replaced by a tiny electronic device called a transistor. It functioned far better and was a fraction of the size and cost. These eight scientists...

Whether you are Blue, Red or some other spectrum like me, this book should be read. It shares the American voices and ideas and answers from people in a variety of ethnicities, fields and experiences about one of these foundational pillars of our society: US military veterans. It is time for a comprehensive and permanent solution to US veteran unemployment to be put into place for perpetuity. The technology of the 21st century allows us to do so. But the answers will not be implemented effectively if we leave it to our politicians and government bureaucracy. They have already had more...

Good morning...Welcome to the United States of America !      True Story..... Luke AFB is west of Phoenix and is rapidly being surrounded by civilization that complains about the noise from the base and its planes, forgetting that it was there long before they were... A certain lieutenant colonel at Luke AFB deserves a big pat on the back. Apparently, an individual who lives somewhere near Luke AFB wrote the local paper complaining about a group of F-16s that disturbed his/her day at the mall. When that individual read the response from a Luke AFB officer, it must have stung quite...

Senator Paul Rand is obviously a different kind of politician. He held a 13 hour filibuster in Congress after Attorney General  Eric Holder declared that drone strikes against American citizens would be legal, even without legal due process and any conviction. (http://hirepatriots.com/news-and-blogs/entry/drone-strikes-against-us-citizens-legal) In response, Paul said Thursday that "we're proud to announce that the president is not going to kill unarmed Americans on American soil." He later took to the floor to promote the attorney general's response, as the Senate moved to confirm Brennan.  Read more: http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2013/03/07/historic-filibuster-renews-bipartisan-focus-on-drones-regulation/#ixzz2MuDpTj9X  ...

Belief in God and Jesus Christ has always been the foundation of my life. I encountered God in a dramatic way when I was very young. Some discount my experience and tell me that I was too young for it to have been as significant that I claim it to be. But they are wrong. It was then and remains the focal point of my entire life.   My parents never attended church or a synagogue. I was never encouraged to believe in God. In fact, my home life was filled with terror due to extreme alcoholism and the resulting...

I will never fill the world enough with praises of my wife. Like soft waltzes my poetry sings when writing these for her, and they shall all of my life.   There are other issues, profound and pressing, that deserve consideration and concern. But nothing else stirs my soul with such passion, nor makes my heart with fire burn.   It's not just the curves of my woman; but also her countenance and soft eyes that causes me to feel like some seagull, carried by wind, who over the ocean glides.   Yet what she possesses that's most precious and amazing...

HirePatriots helps create public speaking and TV, radio and press interviews for US veterans and patriotic citizens. We do this for several reasons, but the preeminent  reason is to continually educate the American public about the value of US military training and service so that companies and civilians will give them the honor and respect they deserve. In WW II one of ten US citizens served in America's armed forces. Today it is approximately one in 200. And with the advent of drone technology and the increasing use of special forces, that number continues to dwindle. As a result, fewer US...

The News media is constantly in search of breaking news and stories that interest, inform, entertain and assist their subscribers. If you are able to offer the News  networks such programming, then you will most certainly be welcomed by the producers, station managers, reporters and editors who are responsible for finding such content. It makes it all the more easy to be featured, interviewed or published if you represent a not-for-profit. If your approach is to promote a commercial endeavor their first thought will be to get you to pay for advertising. However, if you reach out to them in an...
