Pre-Inauguration Proposal: Arm The Undocumented

Thomas Knapp: “TRUE!!!” That’s president-elect Donald Trump’s response to a post on his social media platform claiming that he plans to declare a “national emergency” and use the US armed forces to abduct and deport immigrants on a very large scale. It’s not a good idea to bet the ranch on campaign promises, especially Trump’s. In 2016, … Continue reading Pre-Inauguration Proposal: Arm The Undocumented → - by Thomas L. Knapp

A Serious Question About the US Constitution

Thomas Knapp: Let’s get my “news hook” out of the way: President-elect Donald Trump has been offering up names for appointments to his cabinet, and rattling a constitutional saber about using “recess appointments” to get around the constitutional  requirement that those appointees be confirmed by the US Senate. I’m not really interested in the details of that … Continue reading A Serious Question About the US Constitution → - by Thomas L. Knapp

Social Media Users Can Walk And Chew Gum. Why Abandon One For The Other?

Thomas Knapp: In the wake of the latest presidential election, it’s morning in America! Well, maybe not, but a lot of people seem to be talking about Bluesky, which implies sun, which implies morning.

Bloomin’ Onion! Or, Alex Jones And Poetic Injustice

Thomas Knapp: Confession: I’ve just never been much of an Alex Jones fan.

Election 2024: The Obligatory Explanation Column

Thomas Knapp: I hate election explanation columns. I had no intention of writing such a column for two reasons.

The other — and the one justifying this column — is that no matter how … Continue reading Election 2024: The Obligatory Explanation Column → - by Thomas L. Knapp

Election 2024: Neither “Landslide” Nor “Mandate”

Thomas Knapp: With 95% of precincts reporting nationwide according to Wikipedia (as of 4am on Saturday, November 9), it’s safe to say that the US presidential election is decided.
