From: Constitution Party of Clarion County http://www.ConstitutionPartyofClarionCounty.org Darrell Castle turns his attention away from the pressing issue of war and looks at Christians and Christianity as we near the end of Holy Week.Transcription / Notes:THE RESTORATION OF LIBERTYHello, this is Darrell Castle with today's Castle Report. This is Friday the 3rd day of April in the year of our Lord 2026. I'm very happy that I have something to talk about besides war today. This is in fact Good Friday and in honor of that date and with Easter Sunday just a couple of days away I turn my attention away from the pressing issue of war and look at Christians and Christianity as we near the end of holy week.First, I want to say a few words about the title of this Castle Report and where that title comes from especially since we are currently in the 250th anniversary year of America. My argument is that the founders rather than trying to build a utopian perfect world were seeking the restoration of liberties they once had. The Declaration, written by Thomas Jefferson but inspired ... http://www.ConstitutionPartyofClarionCounty.org/News?articleid=295908&view=post&blogid=11057 Fri, 3 Apr 2026 00:00:00 -0400 Darrell Castle talks about war and the President’s statement that it is basically over and we won. Is that statement true and what are the most recent developments in Iran.Transcription / NotesTHE WAR HAS BEEN WONHello, this is Darrell Castle with today's Castle Report. This is Friday the 27th day of March in the year of our Lord 2026. I will be talking about war today and the President's statement that it is basically over and we won. Is that statement true and what are the most recent developments in Iran.What is war but the most horrific thing in which a country, a people, can engage. It is killing on an industrialized scale and from the carpet-bombing campaigns of WWll to the guided munitions of today it is about killing. It is the young men of a country being ordered by the old men of that country to kill the young men of another country but they kill everybody, men, women, little schoolgirls, everybody. Unless done for purely defensive purposes it is immoral and unconsc... http://www.ConstitutionPartyofClarionCounty.org/News?articleid=295505&view=post&blogid=11057 Fri, 27 Mar 2026 00:00:00 -0400 Today, Friday, March 20, 2026, Darrell Castle talks about the resignation of Joe Kent as Director of the National Counterterrorism Center and especially about the ramifications of the letter he publicly released explaining his resignation.Transcription / Notes:GOODBYE JOEHello, this is Darrell Castle with today's Castle Report. I will be talking about the resignation of Joe Kent as Director of The National Counterterrorism Center and especially about the ramifications of the letter he publicly released explaining his resignation.Yes, Joe is gone and I for one will miss him in government because he was not afraid to ask questions and to encourage legitimate investigations into things which didn't make sense from the official government explanation. First, let's take a brief look at who he is and how he became Director of Counterterrorism.He was born April 11, 1980, so next month he will be 46 years old. He enlisted in the U.S. Army after 9-11 and made it through Ranger School where h... http://www.ConstitutionPartyofClarionCounty.org/News?articleid=295138&view=post&blogid=11057 Fri, 20 Mar 2026 00:00:00 -0400 Darrell Castle talks about the fact, proven over centuries, that war is easy to start but hard to get out of and if one gets out, the continuing effects exist long into the future.Transcription / NotesTHE SHELF LIFE OF THE IRANIAN WARHello, this is Darrell Castle with today's Castle Report. This is Friday the 13th day of March in the year of our Lord 2026. Once again my beat is war and Friday the 13th seems like a good day to talk about something so unpleasant. I will be talking about the fact, proven over centuries, that war is easy to start but hard to get out of and if one gets out the continuing effects exist long into the future.Yes, this is Friday the 13th once again and we are only two days from the Ides of March which was the date of Julius Ceasar's assassination on 15 March 44 BC. He was born in 100 BC so by my rough calculations that would make him 2126 years old today. Why talk about Ceasar more than 2000 years after his death, because he has been the gold standard for le... http://www.ConstitutionPartyofClarionCounty.org/News?articleid=294739&view=post&blogid=11057 Fri, 13 Mar 2026 00:00:00 -0400 Darrell Castle talks about the war, declared by President Trump, against the nation of Iran. Does he have Constitutional authority to declare war; why would he do so; and what does it mean?Transcription / NotesPRESIDENT TRUMP DECLARES WAR AGAINST IRANHello, this is Darrell Castle with today's Castle Report. This is Friday the 6th day of March in the year of our Lord 2026. My beat is war today and war is obviously the most important story in the world right now as President Trump, unilaterally it seems, decided to make war against a nation that apparently had not harmed the U.S. and was not a threat to the U.S.Why then did President Trump do it. I'll give my thoughts on that but first let's look at what he did. The U.S. spent a few months building up forces in the Middle East region while negotiating or pretending to negotiate a settlement. The U.S. demands became increasingly more difficult for the Iranians to comply with including give up the use of peaceful nuclear power except fo... http://www.ConstitutionPartyofClarionCounty.org/News?articleid=294354&view=post&blogid=11057 Fri, 6 Mar 2026 00:00:00 -0400 Darrell Castle talks about the State of the Union Address by reviewing a few of the things President Trump said and the reaction of his opponents, as well as providing a Constitutional response.Transcription / NotesSOTU – A RESPONSEHello, this is Darrell Castle with today's Castle Report. This is Friday the 27th day of February in the year of our Lord 2026. I will be talking about the State of the Union Address delivered last Tuesday by President Donald Trump. I will comment on a few of the things he said and on the reaction of his opponents to those things and then I will do what I am often asked to do and that is give a Constitutional response.The President spoke for almost two hours the longest speech in SOTU history. He spoke mostly about the achievements of his second term and he mentioned that America is entering a golden age. He emphasized patriotism and heroes and he invited many of them to the speech including the gold medal winning men's Olympic hockey team.According... http://www.ConstitutionPartyofClarionCounty.org/News?articleid=293873&view=post&blogid=11057 Fri, 27 Feb 2026 00:00:00 -0400 Darrell Castle talks about the continuing saga of Jeffrey Epstein and what that saga means for the relationship between the global ruing elite and the people.Transcription / NotesEPSTEIN AND THE DESTRUCTION OF TRUSTHello, this is Darrell Castle with today's Castle Report. This is Friday the 20th day of February in the year of our Lord 2026. I will be talking about the continuing saga of Jeffrey Epstein and what that saga means for the relationship between the global ruling elite and the people.Yes, folks we are faced with a moral dilemma today and that dilemma is what to do when we find out that the ruling elite of the West, not just America but the West has completely abandoned the moral bedrock upon which the whole system is based. Western Civilization also known as Christian Civilization is based on a system of moral principles and if those principles are adhered to by everyone the system works and we can pass it on to our offspring.Now that entire belief system has been turned u... http://www.ConstitutionPartyofClarionCounty.org/News?articleid=293436&view=post&blogid=11057 Fri, 20 Feb 2026 00:00:00 -0400 Darrell Castle shares his thoughts on those who seem caught up in the Epstein files and if correct, suggests that every system of power on earth is currently run by satanic pedophiles.Transcription / NotesTHE DEVIL IS IN THE DETAILSHello, this is Darrell Castle with today's Castle Report. This is Friday, the 13th day of February in the year of our Lord 2026. Friday the 13th and it is apparently a very unlucky day for some of those caught up in the Epstein files. Who is caught up in the files, just about everybody who is anybody it seems, all the rich and powerful, but as I said in the title the devil literally is in the details.Yes, folks it is rather shocking to find that the whole world is run by satanic pedophiles but that is what the recent release of over 3 million documents that constitute about half of the Epstein files seem to be telling the world. Royal families torn apart, heads of state, cabinet secretaries, titans of banking and industry, owners of sports teams, ex-commi... http://www.ConstitutionPartyofClarionCounty.org/News?articleid=292964&view=post&blogid=11057 Fri, 13 Feb 2026 00:00:00 -0400 Darrell Castle talks about what is going on in Minneapolis as well as the state of Minnesota — what is going on there, does anyone care, and what about fraud.Transcription / NotesMINNESOTA IS A STRANGE PLACEHello, this is Darrell Castle with today's Castle Report. This is Friday the 6th day of February in the year of our Lord 2026. Although I am a little late for the party I will be talking about what is going on in Minneapolis as well as the state of Minnesota. What in the world is going on there and does anyone care about the violence and death, and also what about the fraud.Was a 37-year-old ICU nurse really a threat to the ICE agents in Minnesota? Do Americans who film such agents as they try to do their jobs belong on government lists. Should the presence of ICE agents in Minnesota be eliminated since the politicians and the people apparently are violently opposed to their presence.

What is the concept of Greater Israel and how does it relate to the Israeli destruction of Gaza? Is this retaliation, self defense or is there more to it than that?Transcription / NotesGREATER ISRAEL AND THE PROSPECTS FOR PEACEHello, this is Darrell Castle with today's Castle Report. This is Friday the 22nd day of August in the year of our Lord 2025. I will be talking about Israel, about Bibi Netanyahu and his project for a Greater Israel. Is he really working to expand Israel's borders across the Middle East or is it simply self-defense. Is the Israeli destruction of Gaza retaliation and protection from terrorists or is there more to it than that.There are many things I could be talking about right now such as the Trump-Putin meeting in Alaska followed by Trump's "summoning" Zelensky to Washington, followed by Giorgia Meloni's recognition of Europe being left out of the deal. She quickly called E... http://www.ConstitutionPartyofClarionCounty.org/News?articleid=291527&view=post&blogid=11057 Sat, 24 Jan 2026 00:00:00 -0400 Darrell Castle talks about the 80th anniversary of the end of World War Two.

Are they behaving like victors?Transcription / NotesEIGHTY YEARS AFTER WORLD WAR TWOHello, this is Darrell Castle with today's Castle Report. This is Friday the 29th day of August in the year of our Lord 2025. This is Labor Day weekend and a 3-day vacation for most of us but the day after Labor Day is an anniversary to remember. It is the 80th anniversary of the end of World War Two. Where do we stand today with the inheritance that all those men gave us so many years ago. How have the allied leaders handled the victory they were given by the blood of their ancestors. I will look at some of the things that are happening in our world today to see if the allies have truly behaved like victors.Next Tuesday, the 2nd of September is the 80th anniversary of the signing of the Japanese surrender do... http://www.ConstitutionPartyofClarionCounty.org/News?articleid=291526&view=post&blogid=11057 Sat, 24 Jan 2026 00:00:00 -0400 Darrell Castle talks about the deterioration of freedom and the imposition of top-down control of speech and thought in the mother country that once believed in the concept of freedom.Transcription / NotesFREE SPEECH OR INCITEMENT TO VIOLENCEHello, this is Darrell Castle with today's Castle Report. This is Friday the 5th day of September in the year of our Lord 2025. I will be talking about the deterioration of freedom and the imposition of top-down control of speech and thought in the mother country that once believed in the concept of freedom.From at least the year 1215 when the Great Charter the Magna Charta was imposed on King John by the British nobles English people have had the proud belief that they were free. King John did not resist but accepted the concept in writing that the law applies equally to all Englishmen, King and commoner alike. When the American colonies rebelled it was at least in part because they wanted the rights of ordinary Englishmen which they believed t... http://www.ConstitutionPartyofClarionCounty.org/News?articleid=291525&view=post&blogid=11057 Sat, 24 Jan 2026 00:00:00 -0400 Darrell Castle talks about the brutal and horrifying video taped murder of a young woman named Iryna Zarutska who escaped from the national graveyard that is Ukraine only to be murdered in the urban graveyard that is today’s American cities.Transcription / NotesLIFE AND DEATH IN CHARLOTTEHello, this is Darrell Castle with today's Castle Report. This is Friday the 12th day of September in the year of our Lord 2025. I will be talking about the brutal and horrifying video taped murder of a young woman named Iryna Zarutska who escaped from the national graveyard that is Ukraine only to be murdered in the urban graveyard that is today's American cities. We have no shortage of murder to talk about today but Charlie Kirk's assassination happened too late for this Report and anyway everything has been said but in light of the subject of today the milk of human kindness is running a little low right now.Yes, Iryna finished her shift at the pizzeria in Charlotte where she worked.

I will be talking about recent events in the history of America from assassinations to simple murders and how we never seem to get the complete and truthful picture of what happened.If we go back in history only so far as World War ll we find that psychological warfare was an important weapon for all combatants. It was important but also primitive compared to the worldwide grip it holds on us today. Sometimes it was millions of leaflets dropped from airplanes across Europe and sometimes it was Tokyo Rose broadcasting from Japan to American sailors opposing the Japanese navy. There were no video cameras, no satellites, no social media, and no internet whereby everyone was monitored and ordina... http://www.ConstitutionPartyofClarionCounty.org/News?articleid=291523&view=post&blogid=11057 Sat, 24 Jan 2026 00:00:00 -0400 Darrell Castle continues analyzing the murder of Charlie Kirk especially the aftermath including his memorial service.Transcription / NotesWAS CHARLIE'S MURDER A FORT SUMTER EVENT?Hello, this is Darrell Castle with today's Castle Report. This is Friday the 26th day of September in the year of our Lord 2025. I will continue talking and analyzing the murder of Charlie Kirk especially the aftermath including his memorial service. Was this event of such magnitude that it could be a Fort Sumter level tectonic separation of opposing forces. I only know that the official explanation of the murder is not truthful because it simply could not happen that way.Since the assassination of President Kennedy this has been an assassination nation with so many that it would be impossible to list them all in this report.

This is Friday the 3rd of October in the year of our Lord 2025.  I have decided to talk about what seems to be most important for the United States and the world in this report. The government shutdown will have to wait but it might be a good thing anyway. President Trump's 20-point proposal to bring peace or at least the absence of war and famine to Gaza is my beat for today.The people of Gaza are certainly important and certainly worth talking about because they and their land are central to Mr. Netanyahu's plan for the Middle East. Israel seems to appear in almost every discussion about almost everything today. Keeping all that in mind, I have a question to ask before I begin the discussion of Trump's proposed peace plan.According to artic... http://www.ConstitutionPartyofClarionCounty.org/News?articleid=291521&view=post&blogid=11057 Sat, 24 Jan 2026 00:00:00 -0400 Darrell Castle talks about the second anniversary of the attacks by Hamas against the nation of Israel and its people on October 7, 2023.

This is Friday the 10th day of October in the year of our Lord 2025. I will be talking about the 2nd anniversary of the attacks by Hamas against the nation of Israel and its people on October 7, 2023. What is going on in the Middle East especially in Gaza today. Is all the mass trauma a reaction to October 7 or is there a lot more to it than that. This was recorded too late for the settlement in Gaza but I don't think that changes my report.The question I have and will explore in this report is this, is the nation of Israel and especially its leader, Bibi Netanyahu, as bad as they ... http://www.ConstitutionPartyofClarionCounty.org/News?articleid=291520&view=post&blogid=11057 Sat, 24 Jan 2026 00:00:00 -0400 Darrell talks about the peace agreement or ceasefire orchestrated by President Trump to end the slaughter in Gaza and return the hostages to their families.Transcription / NotesDAY OF REJOICINGHello, this is Darrell Castle with today's Castle Report. This is Friday the 17th day of October in the year of our Lord 2025. I will be talking about the peace agreement or ceasefire if you prefer, orchestrated by President Trump to end the slaughter in Gaza and return the hostages to their families.Yes, it was a glorious day anticipated for two years and on the day they arrived 65,000 people gathered in Hostage Square to welcome them home. Many did not survive but for those who did it was indeed an emotional and glorious day. Imagine the joy of seeing your loved one who survived two years of captivity underground in the tunnels of Gaza. For two years you didn't know whether he was alive or dead and what suffering he might be enduring.The peace might not hold and it might be just a temporary ... http://www.ConstitutionPartyofClarionCounty.org/News?articleid=291519&view=post&blogid=11057 Sat, 24 Jan 2026 00:00:00 -0400 Darrell Castle talks about the military actions taken by president Trump against the nation of Venezuela as well as some other South American and Latin American nations.

This is Friday the 24th day of October in the year of our Lord 2025. I will be talking about the military actions taken by President Trump against the nation of Venezuela as well as some other South and Latin American nations. I argue that there is more involved in these actions than an effort to stop drug trafficking and also assert that countering the import of narcotics into the United States is at best a side benefit of the action against those countries.The original Monroe Doctrine has been the policy of the United States for a little over 200 years, but it has been more or less abandoned in recent years.

This is Friday the 31st day of October in the year of our Lord 2025. Yes, this is Halloween day, a traditional spooky, bad news day, but I have decided to use this spooky day and borrow a bit from the classic novel written by Charles Dickens entitled "A Tale of Two Cities".  Mr. Dickens opened his novel with "It Was the Best of Times; It Was the Worst of Times" and that is a pretty good description of our times, today.Dickens wrote those words in 1859 as the title and opening of his novel which was set in London and Paris during the French Revolution. "It was the best of times, it was the worst of times, it was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness, it was the epoch of belief, it was the epoch of incredulity." That sounds so much like today because the more things chang... http://www.ConstitutionPartyofClarionCounty.org/News?articleid=291517&view=post&blogid=11057 Sat, 24 Jan 2026 00:00:00 -0400 Darrell Castle talks about the 250th Birthday of the U.S. Marine Corps, the NYC mayoral election held last Tuesday, and how a self-described socialist won the election.Transcription / NotesTHE MARINE CORPS LIVES FOREVERHello, this is Darrell Castle with today's Castle Report. This is Friday the 7th day of November in the year of our Lord 2025. Next Monday the 10th of November is the 250th anniversary of the birth of the United States Marine Corps, an organization that I served with for four years more than 50 years ago. The title comes from a belief drummed into our heads back then, Marines live and they die but the Marine Corps lives forever.I am not going to spend this entire report taking you down memory lane because there are just too many bad things to talk about. This Report that I do each week is in a way a journey through the sewers of the world. People often ask me why don't you ever talk about any good news and my answer is, because I just don't see any.

This is Friday the 14th day of November in the year of our Lord 2025. Last Tuesday the 11th was Veterans Day here in America or what they still call Armistice Day in Great Britain. I will be talking about that by using an interview of a British veteran named Alec Penstone that was given on British television and the "viral" result of his comments.Mr. Penstone was selected as the veteran to be interviewed and to represent all British veterans on the British television show Good Morning Britain. His interview was live and obviously intended to convey to the British public that the TV show, its hosts, and the network in general are just as patriotic and honoring of veterans as the genera... http://www.ConstitutionPartyofClarionCounty.org/News?articleid=291515&view=post&blogid=11057 Sat, 24 Jan 2026 00:00:00 -0400 Darrell Castle talks about the economy in general as well as the United States economy specifically, and why American families are struggling financially.Transcription / NotesIT'S THE ECONOMYHello, this is Darrell Castle with today's Castle Report. This is Friday the 21st day of November in the year of our Lord 2025. I will be talking about the economy in general as well as the United States economy specifically. You probably remember when Democrat policy advisor James Carville told then candidate Bill Clinton, "it's the economy stupid." He was correct and the advice is still correct today. Remember that next week is Thanksgiving so there will be no Castle Report. I will join you again on Friday December 5.Carville was a very effective political operative in those days and was apparently able to convince Mr. Clinton that the people who would elect him or his opponent cared more about their standard of living than they did about any foreign policy issue. They should have cared m... http://www.ConstitutionPartyofClarionCounty.org/News?articleid=291514&view=post&blogid=11057 Sat, 24 Jan 2026 00:00:00 -0400 Darrell Castle discusses President Trump’s 28 point proposed peace plan along with a few words about the other war, the one in the Middle East.Transcription / Notes:PEACE IN UKRAINEHello, this is Darrell Castle with today's Castle Report. This is Friday the 5th day of December in the year of our Lord 2025. Although the title of this Castle Report is peace, my beat is war today and as usual there is no shortage of war to talk about. Specifically, I will be discussing President Trump's 28 point proposed peace plan along with a few words about the other war, the one in the Middle East.Yes, President Trump is proposing peace in Ukraine. Perhaps he wants to turn his attention to other wars and potential wars or maybe he feels bad about campaigning that he could end the Ukraine war in 24 hours with just a few phone calls. I will be telling you what I propose the U.S. do in Ukraine and the Middle East but before we get to that listen to this important information.I am currently in th... http://www.ConstitutionPartyofClarionCounty.org/News?articleid=291513&view=post&blogid=11057 Sat, 24 Jan 2026 00:00:00 -0400 Darrell Castle ushers in 2026 by talking about the world as he sees it today along with some year-end thoughts about the past, the present, and the unknown future.Transcription/NotesBLESSED ARE THE PEACEMAKERSHello, this is Darrell Castle with today's Castle Report.

Those are the words of the Prince of Peace whose birth we just celebrated, and his words have been the bed rock of Western Civilization for over 2000 years.
