This is Friday, the 9th day of May in the year of our Lord 2025. I will be talking about the use of politics to address the world's problems and how that use repeatedly fails. Specifically, how the use or lack of use of politics to solve the disputes in the Middle East and in Ukraine make good political campaigning but when push comes to shove politics fails to solve the problems.The dictionary defines politics as: "the activities associated with the governance of a country or other area, especially the debate or conflict among individuals or parties having or hoping to achieve power."We might be able to glean something from that defin...
Darrell Castle endeavors to give his opinion on the subject of tariffs and what they mean for the United States.Transcription / NotesRESETTING THE ORDERHello, this is Darrell Castle with today's Castle Report. This is Friday the 11th day of April in the year of our Lord 2025. It's difficult to leave the subject of war and talk about tariffs but I have been waiting for the wars to pause long enough for me to do it. The wars haven't cooperated, but I have to pause them for this week since the subject of tariffs can no longer be ignored.I don't claim to be an economist but I do know something about economic history so, I will, therefore, endeavor to give an opinion on the subject of tariffs and what they mean for us. I used to study the marketing theory of one of the great marketers in the world today, Dan Kennedy. People would pay handsomely for Dan's advice and they would often ask him, so what should I do, this or that, and his answer was, yes. In other words, he would advise them t...

Darrell Castle talks about the war in which Europe currently finds itself as well as the seemingly inevitable war against Iran and its affiliates.Transcription / NotesWAR LASTS FOREVERHello, this is Darrell Castle with today's Castle Report. This is Friday the 25th day of April in the year of our Lord 2025. I talk of war today as we are about two weeks away from May 8th which is the 80th anniversary of the German surrender in WWll or what became known as victory in Europe Day. I speak today not of the German surrender but of the war in which Europe still finds itself as well as the seemingly inevitable war against Iran and its affiliates.It is very easy to get into a war and so very hard to get out of one. The efforts to resolve the conflict between Ukraine and Russia have become more difficult because neither side has been defeated. They have killed each other and invented new technological methods of warfare but neither is in a position of absolute defeat. Many seem disappointed t...

Darrell Castle continues to discuss how important free speech is to the American view of freedom with an emphasis on how Vice President Harris views our right to speak freely as revealed by her own words.Transcription / NotesSPEECH IS A PRIVILEDGE TO KAMALA HARRISHello, this is Darrell Castle with today's Castle Report. This is Friday, the 6th day of September in the year of our Lord 2024. I will be continuing my discussion of free speech and how important it is to the American view of freedom with an emphasis on how Vice President Harris views our right to speak freely as revealed by her own words.It seems that to Ms. Harris, as a faithful authoritarian, speech is something that has to be regulated and controlled by the federal government which she hopes to lead someday soon. I wonder if she has ever stopped to consider that when the government claims the authority to regulate speech it is no longer free. It seems that despite all the "joy" attached to her campaign by the media she...

I will be talking about some of the people who have seen the light and decided to work for the election of Kamala Harris. Perhaps the worst and most disgusting, lying war criminal in American history, Dick Cheney and his designated successor, his daughter Liz went public with their endorsement of Kamala Harris.She must be so proud to have received such a ringing endorsement from such a gentleman as Dick Cheney. I know she is proud to have the endorsement because she said publicly that she was proud. No, on second thought she didn't say she was proud and I don't want to misquote her. She said she was "honored" to have Cheney's endorsement. So, ya...
Darrell Castle talks about the second assassination attempt against the life of Donal Trump.Transcription / NotesCRIMINAL NEGLIGENCE OR INTENTIONAL ACTHello, this is Darrell Castle with today's Castle Report. This is Friday the 20th day of September in the year of our Lord 2024. I will be talking about the second assassination attempt against the life of Donald Trump in two months. The question that should be answered is, was this latest attempt just criminal negligence on the part of the federal government and its various agencies or was it an intentional act.When I look at what happened this time I can't help but wonder what is going on here with this political party in charge of our government. The same political party that tells us Donald Trump is a threat to democracy and a threat to America. Was this an amazing coincidence or could people inside the federal government and its ruling elite be out to stop Donald Trump at any price.The two soft approaches that are available to a ...
