Note to Biden Administration: Election Years Are Particularly Bad Times to Call Black Voters Stupid

A year ago, the Washington Post reported that the Biden administration was poised to propose a ban on menthol cigarettes. On April 28 the US Food and Drug Administration (supposedly an independent agency, but clearly operating per Joe Biden’s “suggestions”) finally announced its plan to move forward with the ban, which also includes cigars. Now, … Continue reading Note to Biden Administration: Election Years Are Particularly Bad Times to Call Black Voters Stupid → - by Thomas L. Knapp

Can Elon Musk Save Twitter?

Mere days after my column explaining why Elon Musk shouldn’t buy Twitter, Elon Musk bought Twitter  — sort of. His offer’s been accepted, but there’s likely a good deal of red tape to get over before he hands over the cash and the current board hands over the keys.

Why Elon Musk Shouldn’t Buy Twitter

When Elon Musk bought the single largest stake in Twitter, then announced plans to acquire the whole company instead of just accepting a seat on its board, the response varied: Hosannas from many on the “right” who feel like they don’t get a fair shake from Twitter’s moderation/ban policies.

Whose Security?

Insanity has often been defined as trying the same thing over and over and receiving the same result. Case in point, Ukraine was seeking NATO membership to bolster its security.

Attention! Deficit Disorder!

On March 28, US president Joe Biden unveiled his 2023 budget proposal. It totals $5.8 trillion, which would bring federal spending and deficits back below their pandemic-era heights (although not back to 2019 levels).
