    E 326: The Case for Meritocracy in Government: Hiring Requirements & Job Qualifications
    2026/09/23

    Meritocracy is a social, political, or economic system where people get power, success, and rewards based on their individual talents and hard work rather than their wealth or family background

    The United States government operates as a democratic republic rather than a pure Meritocracy, meaning political power is won through public elections and political appointments rather than strictly through tested ability or expertise.

    But shouldn't these elected or appointed representatives have real world expertise or qualifications to be considered?

    If you have never been a low level supervisor managing a department of ten people, how could you possibly manage the numerous budgets and personnel to run one of the largest cities on the planet?

    In the corporate world, job candidates or applicants are recruited, vetted and eventually selected to fill a role based on their previous work experience and their success.

    Today we will discuss why this discipline of Meritocracy vetting needs to be reconsidered in politics today.

    Democratic Elections vs. Meritocracy

    Popularity over test scores: Voters choose leaders based on political views, campaigns, and public appeal instead of academic or technical exams. But what about job qualifications? Shouldn't that also be a criteria?

    Merit-Based Elements in Government

    Civil service rules: Lower- and mid-level government workers often get hired and promoted through exams and structured qualification standards.

  • E 325: Never Forget: A Message to Gen Z

    E 325: Never Forget: A Message to Gen Z
    2026/09/16
    A message for Gen Z. Peace & Prosperity is on the ballot.Welcome back to One Day Closer where we are rekindling a spirit of Hope and Truth into today’s conversations. If you are joining us for the first time, we have spent the past month teeing up the importance of this year’s midterms in America. For our listeners abroad who may care little for our elections, bear with us, the outcome of these elections just might affect your region of the world, either in a good way or a bad way.Which begs the question, what is on the line in the upcoming Midterms? Do you want to relive the Biden Presidency of ongoing Impeachment procedures against Trump and his cabinet or continue to enjoy the anticipated growth and prosperity coming with Trumps Golden Age Vision?The democrat party is united and has gone on record stating that their number one priority should they win the midterms and take control of the House and Senate, they will be hellbent on obstructing Trumps current success in delivering on his promise of establishing a strong foundation for Americas Golden Age.Under Biden we all endured divisive division among the races, classes and ethnic groups. Interest rates were north of 9.4%. Under Trump inflation is currently 3%. Under Biden, gas prices were as high as $8 dollars pending where you lived. The dems have vowed to pursue Impeachment proceedings day one. We have lived through this before. Instead of building a stronger America they spent their time and energy to make her weak and vulnerable on the global stage and here at home.In your episode 291 entitled “2026 House Cleaning: Sunlight is the best disinfectant,” you and Mark captured many of differences under democrat leadership and republican leadership. Here’s a quick review.Last year, Trumps first year of his second term, revealed just how severe Trump Derangement illness is. After witnessing a Trump mandate smackdown…the left learned nothing. After all the votes were counted, Kamala and Waltz were not just losers, they left the party bankrupt and in debt for over $20 million! And their supporters did not run them out of town! Their supporters didn’t seem to care. Why? While you’re there, listen to our show “2025 in the rearview mirror: The year of the American Heist.” That would be episode 288. We discuss two significant accomplishments that occurred last year.The election of Donald J Trump confirmed that Americans aren’t crazy. They voted for a FIXERElon Musk unleashed DOGE - The first American Deep state Audit in DecadesThis Long Overdue Audit of the Deep State revealed jaw dropping revelations.The level of Fraud, Waste and Abuse proved to be staggering in size and systemic in scope, known but overlooked for decades, primarily in blue cities. USAid - $9billion. In June, Senate passed the $9B Rescission Bill to cut additional spending, defunding US AID, PBS and NPR, first in 30 years! The Minnesota Somali Scam initially thought to be $1 billion in stolen tax payer dollars is now projected to pass $18 to $20 billion! An industrial scale fraud. And that’s just one blue state. Rep. Omar founded the Feed the Future scam at $250m. Fake food kitchens for children that didn’t exist. Ilhan Omar, Senator was worth $65,000 in 2018. In 2025 she was worth $30 million. How does that work? Don’t forget the Somali Autism Scam $1-$2B. Autism clinics increased from 20 to over 400 needing millions in funding to tend to the crisis…which was a scam. The amount of fraud, corruption, scamming, looting from the American treasury could exceed a half a Trillion if this same trend manifests in the other blue states.Scamsters who claimed to be over 115 years old, scored loans worth $333 million, including $36,000 to a 157-year-old. Auditors also found that $79 billion - nearly half of the improper payments - could have been prevented if simple fraud-detection questions had been asked of applicants Student Loan fraud exposed by Linda McMahon, Education Secretary. $1B in loans were issued to bots, ghost students or dead people…no oversight or ID verification requirements.Let’s take a look at what happened under TrumpForeign Affairs & US Relationships & Influence Abroad:Irans nuclear uranium enrichment pursuits was setback decadesHezbollah, Yemen, Hamas has been dealt with.Trumps approach to cleaning up the backyard…the Western Hemisphere is bold and long overdue. Global respect on the world stage restored.

  • E 324: Identifying Party Differences for the 2026 Midterm Policies and Priorities by Party

    E 324: Identifying Party Differences for the 2026 Midterm Policies and Priorities by Party
    2026/09/09

    Welcome back to One Day Closer where we are rekindling a spirit of Hope and Truth into today's crazy conversations. Today, Paul will join me again as we highlight both the hot and trendy talking points by party for the upcoming 2026 midterm elections.

    What we hope to highlight is that the "trendy" slogans of the far left that promise to make everything free, does nothing to improve anything in America. It's abolish this and cancel that with no submitted ideas or thoughts as to how to reform anything. Their platform policies and priorities construct nothing. It's destructive in every sense of the word.

    The "hot" topics that actually empower our economy, paves a way to sustainable affordability and truly lifts all boats and what you'll hear from the conservative candidates. Resolving once and for all the hostage takeover of the Strait of Hormuz by Irans IRGC is job one. Addressing and ending their feeble desire to control the economies of the entire world must end. All the rationale nations of the world realize that Iran can no longer be trusted at the table.

    TRENDY but feckless positions or priorities that do not influence Economics nor improves America tend to be only offering the far left Democrat Socialist of America have to offer. Abolish everything with no ideas or thoughts to offer for making America better.

    Abolish Ice. Abolish the Senate. Abolish the Presidency. Defund the Police. Close prisons. Reopen the borders. Free Healthcare for all. Trans rights in sports. Rent freezes. Free government run grocery stores. Can you imagine what this country would look like if these crazy loons got any of these ideas implemmented?

    Communism is on the ballot.


    HOTTEST Topics effecting Midterm elections: Economic Influencing Positions / Policies

    - Resolving the Hostage taking of the Strait of Hormuz

    - Current strategy is Operation Economic Outcast

    - Returning free flow of commerce (regional stability, falling Oil prices, lower gas, new alliances)

    - Interest rates, gas prices and affordability

    - America Save Act: Secure, Fair and Transparent Voting for all American Citizens

    - Save America Act must pass

    - Meritocracy applied to Government

    - Restoring trust and confidence in our Institutions with the American people
