GABE’S TAKES: Hey, Saint Louis University, what the hell is a Billiken?

Saint Louis University is a private Jesuit research university with campuses in St. Louis, Mo., and Madrid, Spain.

KNAPP: Why not take Congressional proxy voting all the way?

The Hill reports that US House Republicans, who made a show earlier this year of opposing remote and proxy voting in Congress, are warming to the latter practice. US Representative Paul Mitchell (R-MI) gave his proxy to US Representative Abigail Spanberger (D-VA) in early December, declaring by tweet that “I will not risk my family’s health in order to vote on key items.” Fast-food cooks and grocery store cashiers don’t get to assign their work to proxies. They show up […]

OP-ED: Local elections plagued with low voter turnout

The post-presidential election hangover has hit most people. Congress and current President Donald Trump battled over COVID-19 and Congressional appropriations over the week. About the only real effect everyone will feel from either of those two massive spending bills is a $600 a week check of your own money and probably a tax hike down the line when Congress has to figure out a way to pay for it. The things that do affect you directly are coming up in […]

KNAPP: Biden wants welfare for the wealthy? What else is new?

In Joe Biden’s “Emergency Action Plan to Save the Economy,” the president-elect proposes to “[f]orgive a minimum of $10,000 per person of federal student loans.” Wait, some protest. That would be a subsidy for the more well-off, at the expense of the less well-off. They have a point. “[D]ebt relief overall, the New York Times notices, “would disproportionately benefit middle- to upper-class college graduates … especially those who attended elite and expensive institutions, and people with lucrative professional credentials like law […]

KNAPP: I’m so sick of superlatives in 2020

“2020: The Worst Year Ever,” reads the cover of Time magazine’s December 14 issue. “There have been worse years in U.S. history,” admits author Stephanie Zacharek, but not, to her way of thinking, since World War Two. Between a heavy hurricane and fire season, police violence and the accompanying protests, a circus of a presidential election, and a global pandemic, Zacharek opines, none but the oldest among us can remember a year nearly as bad. Just how bad a given year […]

KNAPP: There’s no such thing as a “must-pass” bill

“Congress,” The Hill reports, “is barreling toward a veto showdown with President Trump over the mammoth must-pass annual defense policy bill.” At issue: The annual National Defense Authorization Act, which as usual has little to do with actual defense. NDAA bill to fuel more corporate welfare into the military-industrial complex Trump says he’ll veto the NDAA if it requires military bases named after Confederate generals to be re-named, as Congress desires. He also says he’ll veto the bill if it doesn’t […]

NFL: Who’s the best coach of all time?

When you think of the NFL or professional football, it's easy to default to the players. More often than not, it all leads to the quarterback. However, there's always a head coach in the mix that's deserving of credit as well. Coaches are essential to all sports. With every legendary NBA championship team, there's a coach who staked their claim into the list of best NBA coaches in history. The same is also true in the NFL. Today, we take […]

EDITORIAL: Debunking lies about Libertarians from recent article

Ah, the nonsensical drivel of Republicans crying over their cups of coffee over Libertarians. The most recent entry in this department was in the U.S. edition of The Spectator. This "article" is also a feature in the December issue of said magazine. The target: Libertarian voters who cast their vote for Jo Jorgensen on Nov. 3. Exhibit A: The logical fallacy of Libertarian votes "belonging" to Republicans Columnist Michael Warren Davis goes right to the logical fallacy. The fallacy: that […]

COMMENTARY: A New Illinois won’t fix anything, Alan Webber

So, I'm spending a half-day on my 34th birthday working on the website when I get bombarded with a bunch of Google Alerts. One of these alerts relates to anything relating to the state of Illinois. Among one of these alert blasts, this ridiculous op-ed today from the Kankakee Daily Journal was among them. Not even two paragraphs in did op-ed columnist Alan Webber make some factual inaccuracies: Webber states, "However, if you review election returns, Biden didn’t win the […]
