WBEZ
— Feds Probe Illinois Gov. JB Pritzker, First Lady For Property Tax Appeals On Gold Coast Mansion – Dave McKinney, Tony Arnold (DIERSEN: To avoid prosecution, will Pritzker offer a) to house scores if not hundreds of illegals in the “126-year-old mansion they purchased next to their Gold Coast home” and b) to have them push pot in the neighborhood?)
https://www.wbez.org/shows/wbez-news/source-feds-probe-illinois-gov-jb-pritzker-first-lady-for-property-tax-appeals-on-gold-coast-mansion/afb5e34e-e7f5-4113-a110-ac8ec98bca63
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Democratic Illinois Gov. JB Pritzker, his wife and his brother-in-law are under federal criminal investigation for a dubious residential property tax appeal that dogged him during his gubernatorial campaign last year, WBEZ has learned. A law-enforcement source familiar with the investigation confirmed to WBEZ that the probe, which has not been revealed publicly until now, began last October and remains active. There are no signs that criminal charges are imminent. WBEZ has also confirmed that Illinois First Lady MK Pritzker’s personal assistant who was involved in the property tax appeal, Christine Lovely, is being represented by one of Chicago’s most high-powered lawyers. Her attorney, Reid Schar, is a former federal prosecutor who helped convict ex-Illinois Gov. Rod Blagojevich on corruption charges. The developments demonstrate that the billionaire governor and his wife may face a serious legal threat arising from their controversial pursuit of a property tax break on a 126-year-old mansion they purchased next to their Gold Coast home.)

— Volunteers are Making a Difference at Wheeling Township (DIERSEN: What do you do? Twice a day, I put GOPUSA ILLINOIS emails together and send them out. Are you making a difference? According to my critics/opponents, I am not making a difference. They stress those leaders of conservative and Republican organizations in Wheaton, in Milton Township, in DuPage County, and in Illinois who not only do not encourage members of their organizations to read GOPUSA ILLINOIS emails, but who discourage them from reading the emails. Ever-increasingly, those leaders make it clear that they want their organizations to dump the traditional family, right to life, immigration, Second Amendment, illegal drugs, and equal opportunity (no race or gender based preference giving) planks in the Illinois Republican Party platform and in the Republican Party platform.)

https://www.wsj.com/articles/at-yale-diversity-means-more-of-the-same-11556058975
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Yale President Peter Salovey announced a major expansion of the school’s diversity bureaucracy this month, providing a case study in how not to lead a respected institution of higher education. The pretext for this latest accretion of bureaucratic bloat was a May 2018 incident in a graduate student dorm. Sarah Braasch, a 43-year-old doctoral candidate in philosophy, called campus police at 1:40 a.m. to report someone sleeping in a common room, which she believed was against dorm rules. Yale administrators knew Ms. Braasch had psychological problems and that she had a history of bad blood with the sleeping student, Lolade Siyonbola, a 35-year-old doctoral candidate in African studies. But because Ms. Braasch is white and Ms. Siyonbola is black, the administration chose to turn the incident into a symbol of what Mr. Salovey called the university’s “discrimination and racism.” Yale leaders immediately announced a slew of new initiatives: “implicit bias” training for graduate students, grad-school staff and campus police; instruction in how to run “inclusive classrooms”; “community building” sessions; a student retreat to develop the next phase of equity and inclusion programming. Despite this flurry of corrective measures, Kimberly M. Goff-Crews, Yale’s secretary and vice president for student life, ominously declared there was still “much more to do.”)

WACO TRIBUNE HERALD
— Texas bill would allow state to sue social media companies like Facebook and Twitter over free speech – ELIZABETH BYRNE (DIERSEN: I should sue television stations, sue newspapers, sue websites, sue etc. that “advertise as unbiased,” but discriminate against individuals, organizations, companies, governments, and countries that are Trump supporters, Protestant, conservative, patriotic, Republican, American, White, male, older, rich, gun owners, German American, draft avoiders, and/or those whose ancestors have been in America for a long time. Further, I should sue leaders of conservative and/or Republican organizations who discriminate against members who are Trump supporters, Protestant, conservative, patriotic, Republican, American, White, male, older, rich, gun owners, German American, draft avoiders, and/or those whose ancestors have been in America for a long time.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: A bill before the Texas Senate seeks to prevent social media platforms like Facebook and Twitter from censoring users based on their viewpoints. Supporters say it would protect the free exchange of ideas but critics say the bill contradicts a federal law that allows social media platforms to regulate their own content. The measure — Senate Bill 2373 by state Sen. Bryan Hughes R-Mineola — would hold social media platforms accountable for restricting users’ speech based on personal opinions. Hughes said the bill applies to social media platforms that advertise as unbiased but still censor users. The bill was unanimously approved by the Senate State Affairs Committee last week. “Senate Bill 2373 tries to prevent those companies that control these new public spaces, this new public square, from picking winners and losers based on content,” Hughes said in the committee hearing. “Basically if the company represents, ‘we’re an open forum and we don’t discriminate based on content,’ then they shouldn’t be able to discriminate based on content.”)

WIKI HOW
— How to Choose Your Political Party in the United States – Bridget Connolly (DIERSEN: From what I see, ever-increasingly, in Illinois, in DuPage County, and in Milton Township, conservatives are discouraged from a) joining Republican organizations, b) staying a member of Republican organizations, and c) seeking leadership positions in Republican organizations because they see how Republican organizations in Illinois, in DuPage County, and in Milton Township treat conservatives. They see how the Illinois Republican Party (IRP), DuPage County Republican Central Committee (DCRCC), Milton Township Republican Central Committee (MTRCC), TAPROOT Republicans of Illinois, and Illinois Center Right Coalition (ICRC) have treated me and treated my GOPUSA ILLINOIS emails. They see how MTRCC rudely fired me as its webmaster in 2010 and 2004. They see how MTRCC viciously crushed me when I ran for MTRCC Treasurer in 2004. They see how ICRC viciously crushed me when I ran for reelection to its Steering Committee in 2007. They see how ICRC almost succeeded in censoring me in 2006. Ever-increasingly, IRP, DCRCC, MTRCC act like they want to get rid of their members who are Trump supporters, Protestant, conservative, patriotic, Republican, American, White, male, older, non-poor, gun owners, German American, draft avoiders, and those whose ancestors have been in America for a long time. From what I see, beyond tragically, conservatives, that is Republicans, are ever-increasingly shrinking minority in the IRP, DCRCC, and MTRCC.)
