OP-ED: School districts should have local control in matters relating to COVID-19

The state’s mandates regarding masks and vaccinations are merely the headlines and excuses of the moment in an incremental dismantling of local control in public education – and other arenas -- that began decades ago, with the pace only picking up since. Indeed, the latest top-down decisions from the governor and Illinois State Board of Education – and at times we’ve seen this at the federal level, as well – are just a continuation of the pattern of higher officials […]

The Crypto Six: An open letter

Dear readers, This is no usual commentary piece. It is more of a letter of outrage toward a corrupt federal government and its groups of domestic terrorists. I specifically mention the Department of the Treasury and the Federal Bureau of Investigation. These thugs bombarded a house owned by Ian Freeman, talk show host of Free Talk Live and the first radio personality to promote Bitcoin on the air, on March 16 of this year. They ransacked his home, terrorized Freeman's […]

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 […]

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 […]

EDITORIAL: It’s time to push election code reforms in 2021 for Illinois

Illinois is not foreign to ridiculous election laws. As a matter of fact, they have the second-worst and second-most restrictive ballot access laws in the nation, second to Tennessee. Allow me to elaborate. Illinois v. Tennessee regarding ballot access laws In a normal election year, Illinois and Tennessee would require third-party candidates to collect ridiculous amounts of petition signatures to make the general election ballot. In Illinois, there is a 1% requirement based on the overall vote from the largest statewide […]
