[July 3, 2023] As a young man, I trained dogs, earning my way after High School.

Some trainers claim all dogs are capable and worthy. A practical way to think… Read More »
[June 27, 2023] It was my first day cleaning a pigpen, and I knew I had stepped in it big time. Yep, that’s me all right, taking on a job that I had absolutely no idea what I was doing or getting into. But I was also too hard-headed to admit I was over my head, thinking I… Read More »
[May 29, 2023] From the stories told by my parents, my first doggie – Rusty – was my forever companion. He was there when I was born and lived with us for many years.

Many of my colleagues have come to me and begged me to help them get the word out that the FBI higher-ups… Read More »
[May 29, 2022] The days before Memorial Day are full of getting the BBQ grills ready, buying hotdogs and hamburger meat, finding where we put the potato chips, and scurrying about to invite neighbors to a fun day out. We probably considered attending a local Memorial Day parade or ceremony. Many folks traditionally do that, and I’m happy… Read More »
[May 26, 2022] Until recently, I was a senior agent of the United States’ FBI, and I’m now retired some seven years. My goal in life is to tell the American people about the massive corruption within the FBI. This is a sad tale. But I’m all in on my campaign to bring back equal justice for every… Read More »
[April 2, 2022] “Don’t take yourself so seriously, Satterfield.” My Platoon Sergeant was conducting my first performance review as a new NCO and gave me some much-needed advice.

[January 31, 2022] For years now, I’ve been asked to give advice to young men and women about how to live a successful life. I’m humbled by their requests but like all people, I have a biased view.
