https://www.conservativewoman.co.uk/how-to-defeat-the-activist-media/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: A workable solution, therefore, to the problem of the activist media must necessarily be one in which postmodern theory is jettisoned in favour of a new approach. One which abandons the neo-Marxist oppressor/oppressed paradigm, and the ‘us v them’ mentality it fosters. One which rejects the denial of objective truths to which we can all hold. Truth, beauty, reason all exist, and we must not be afraid to say so.)

— State’s new ‘thought leader’ on equity focused on ‘long game:’ Moving Illinois from diversity to equity. Nearly three and a half months after joining Gov. J.B. Pritzker’s administration, Sekile Nzinga will get to put her theory into practice as head of a new office of equity that the governor plans to create Friday through an executive order. – Rachel Hinton
(DIERSEN: What does equity mean? For example, does it mean that the percentage of minorities, females, LGBTQers, etc. who pass the CPA and Certified Internal Auditor examinations on their first attempt must be the same percentage as those who are White, male, heterosexual, etc.? Does it mean that the percentage of minorities, females, LGBTQers, etc. who UIC, NIU, Loyola, DePaul, and IIT accept must be the same percentage as those who are White, male, heterosexual, etc.? Does it mean that the percentage of minorities, females, LGBTQers, etc. who the Post Office, Firestone Stores, IRS, and GAO hire and promote must be the same percentage as those who are White, male, heterosexual, etc.?)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: Tweets and videos are putting the vaccine culture wars on full display. Some elected Republicans are speaking up in favor of getting the vax, while three GOP gubernatorial candidates say they haven’t been vaccinated — and probably won’t be. Congressman Rodney Davis tweeted “Please, get vaccinated. They’re safe and effective. Do it to protect your health and that of those around you so we can finally end this pandemic.” And just to be totally frank, he added, “Don’t give @JBPritzker an excuse to shut the economy down again.” State Rep. Avery Bourne tweeted a picture of herself getting the vaccine, saying “I’m vaccinated & I encourage others to get vaccinated too.” Meanwhile, a video surfaced (h/t Mark Maxwell) of a GOP campaign forum where gubernatorial candidates were asked if they had been vaccinated. Only former Republican state Sen. Paul Schimpf said he had been. The others — state Sen. Darren Bailey, businessman Gary Rabine, and attorney Max Solomon — all said no. The Illinois Republican Party didn’t mince words on its opinion about getting the vaccine. “We encourage people to get the vaccine to put the pandemic behind us,” a spokesman told Playbook. The vax clash comes as the debate and discussions about masks heat up. Republicans are united in not wanting to see Gov. J.B. Pritzker issue any more mandates.)

— New NPR Ethics Policy: It’s OK For Journalists To Demonstrate (Sometimes) – Kelly McBride
https://www.npr.org/sections/publiceditor/2021/07/29/1021802098/new-npr-ethics-policy-its-ok-for-journalists-to-demonstrate-sometimes

(FROM THE ARTICLE: NPR rolled out a substantial update to its ethics policy earlier this month, expressly stating that journalists may participate in activities that advocate for “the freedom and dignity of human beings” on both social media and in real life. The new policy eliminates the blanket prohibition from participating in “marches, rallies and public events,” as well as vague language that directed NPR journalists to avoid personally advocating for “controversial” or “polarizing” issues. NPR’s current ethics policy was first drafted in the early 2000s, and then given an overhaul in 2010-2011. The new NPR policy reads, “NPR editorial staff may express support for democratic, civic values that are core to NPR’s work, such as, but not limited to: the freedom and dignity of human beings, the rights of a free and independent press, the right to thrive in society without facing discrimination on the basis of race, ethnicity, gender, sexual identity, disability, or religion.” Is it OK to march in a demonstration and say, ‘Black lives matter’? What about a Pride parade? In theory, the answer today is, “Yes.” But in practice, NPR journalists will have to discuss specific decisions with their bosses, who in turn will have to ask a lot of questions. The carve-out is somewhat narrow. Protests organized with the purpose of demanding equal and fair treatment of people are now permitted, as long as the journalist asking is not covering the event. However, rallies organized to support a specific piece of legislation would be off-limits. Other events featuring a slate of political candidates from one party are also out of bounds. Even when NPR journalists can legitimately participate in a civic event, the new policy asks them to consider how their participation will impact their colleagues. When taking a public stance makes it harder for other NPR journalists to do their jobs, there is an expectation that the journalism will take precedence. This policy confronts the generations-old question in newsrooms: Where does the journalist end and the citizen begin?)

POLITICO ILLINOIS
— QUESTION FOR CANDIDATES: Have you been vaccinated? Republican gubernatorial candidate Darren Bailey declined to tell WCIA reporter Max Maxwell. Maxwell posed the question during a campaign event for Bailey, who has famously challenged Illinois’ mitigation and mask efforts, even refusing to cover his face on the floor in the state Capitol. Bailey responded: “Why should I answer that? If I’m vaccinated, is that good and, if not, bad? No, that’s not right, Mark. It’s wrong,” he says at the 2:05 time stamp. “Asking if a candidate for Illinois’ highest public office is vaccinated is hardly off-limits,” tweeted WBEZ’s Dave McKinney. “The public is entitled to know about a candidate’s health. Former Gov. Jim Edgar underwent heart surgery during his 1994 re-election. Questions about Edgar’s health weren’t off-limits.” Besides, reporters want to know how close to stand during an interview. – Shia Kapos

— GOP rep eyes plan to kick Cheney, Kinzinger out of the party. The chair of the House Freedom Caucus wants to exile Liz Cheney and Adam Kinzinger from the House Republican conference. – Steve Benen

(FROM THE ARTICLE: Also this morning, Biggs published a tweet arguing that Cheney and Kinzinger “have effectively removed themselves from the Republican Conference. We should help them out the door by formalizing their departure.” If successful, Biggs’ effort wouldn’t remove Kinzinger and Cheney from Congress, but it would exile them from the congressional GOP: the duo would, in practical terms, be independents, regardless of how they personally identified their party affiliation. It remains to be seen whether rank-and-file House Republicans are prepared to participate in such an effort, but with the memory of GOP members removing Cheney from her leadership post fresh on our minds, it’d be a mistake to discount the possibility.)

— Recent Florida Supreme Court ruling on quotas, diversity has far-reaching effect – Gary Beatty
(DIERSEN: My critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes reject the equal opportunity (no race or gender based preference giving) plank in the Republican Party platform. They side with my Democrat superiors in the federal government who took adverse actions against me because I oppose political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, and age discrimination. They side with leaders of the Milton Township Republican Organization, DuPage County Republican Central Committee, Illinois Republican Party, Wheaton, Wheaton Chamber of Commerce, Wheaton Park District, Milton Township, DuPage County, Illinois, TAPROOT Republicans of Illinois, Illinois Center Right Coalition, American Association of Political Consultants Midwest Chapter, etc. who took adverse actions against me because I oppose political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, and age discrimination.)
https://www.floridatoday.com/story/opinion/2021/07/28/ruling-quotas-diversity-has-far-reaching-effect-opinion/8089282002/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The Florida Supreme Court recently ruled that “quotas” to achieve “diversity” are illegal, if those quotas are based on certain “characteristics.” Quotas based on those characteristics “are antithetical to basic American principles of nondiscrimination.” The decision involved rules regulating the Florida Bar, but its holding affects all “diversity” policies statewide.)

From what I see, ever-increasingly, Milton Township Republican Organization leaders, DuPage County Republican Central Committee leaders, and the 6th Congressional District IRP SCC representative are anti-Trump. As anti-Trumpism builds, they will do more and more and more to get rid of Republican Precinct Committeemen who do not hate Trump.)
https://illinoisnewstoday.com/ap-norc-poll-many-republicans-are-worried-about-the-partys-future-wgn-radio-720/317398/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Republicans also have a lot of concerns about their party. Less than half, 41% of Republicans, say they are optimistic about the future of the GOP. Only 13% say they are “very” optimistic. And one-third, 33% say they are pessimistic . . .Polls show that Trump remains the commander of the party. Most former presidents tend to give up the spotlight after resigning, but Trump continues to insist on his power, holds rallies, supports and teases the 2024 comeback run. While 60% of the population has a negative view of Trump, 76% of Republicans have a positive view of him. And most want him to maintain at least some influence over the Republican Party in the future. Almost half of Republicans, 47%, say Trump should exert “more” influence on the party’s future, and another 34% say he should have “slight” influence. It states. Only 18% say Trump should have nothing. . .For the 2020 elections, 62% of Republicans say it is “very” or “very” important to continue investigating the elections. He was dismissed by a number of judges, including some of the state election authorities and his own attorney-at-law president. In contrast, only 38% are “very” or “very” important to continue investigating the January 6 incident, in which a group of Trump supporters slammed the Capitol in an attempt to stop the change of power. It states that. Only 10% of Republicans, like Democrats, say that democracy is working “very” or “very” well in this country today. But Republicans are more negative than Democrats. 63% of Republicans say democracy isn’t working well. Only 17% say they think the country is heading in the right direction.)

That income also enabled me to buy a new 1972 Corvette in 1971 and to pay for tuition and books for graduate business courses at Loyola for the previous 9 months.)

(DIERSEN: When I graduated from NIU in 1970 with a bachelor’s degree in management, when I was viewed as being “draft bait,” I took the only job offer that I got — Retail Sales Manager for the Chicago Heights Firestone Store. My father had died suddenly in 1969 and potential employers did not believe that my financial hardship draft deferment application would be approved. The job did not really require a college degree. Constructively, I was the store’s salesman. The Firestone Stores Chicago District Office hired me. I asked to be assigned to the Chicago Heights store because I lived with my mother and brother in Crete. My Chicago Heights Firestone Store manager would not have hired me. Sadly, he disapproved of my following demographics: Republican, draft avoider, German American, and Missouri Synod Lutheran. He refused to let me start until I passed a probationary period working for the Firestone Store in Gary. After I had worked for him for 7 months, he rudely fired me when I gave him my 2-week notice that I had accepted a job offer from Oldsmobile.)

https://www.breitbart.com/politics/2021/07/26/another-house-democrat-vows-to-oppose-budget-that-excludes-amnesty-for-illegal-aliens/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Specifically, Correa said an amnesty via reconciliation ought to give green cards to illegal aliens enrolled and eligible for the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program as well as those who Democrats consider “essential workers,” along with others. Correa joins Rep. Jesús García (D-IL) in his pledge to oppose a budget without amnesty. Weeks ago, García said “a robust and equitable budget reconciliation deal must include” amnesty for illegal aliens. For months, Senate Democrats have been working to slip an amnesty past Congress via reconciliation. Senate Budget Committee Chairman Bernie Sanders (I-VT) said last week that Democrats are doing “the best we can” to ensure the amnesty is included.)
