CHICAGO TRIBUNE
— Respecting courtroom verdicts challenges us to look beyond our biases, politics, and assumptions – JERRY DAVICH
(COMMENT: Constructively, in Diersen v. GAO, the court ruled that employers can use Affirmative Action, Diversity, Inclusion, up-or-out, budget cuts, and early outs as pretexts, that is, that employers can use political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, and age discrimination to get rid of their employees who are Republican, White, male, older, and/or non-veteran.)

EPOCH TIMES
— The People and the Elite – Mark Bauerlein
(COMMENT: Who are the elites in the organizations that you are a member of, in your municipality, in your township, in your county, and in Illinois? What do they think of you? How do they treat you? I should write a book about the elites in the Milton Township Republican Organization (MTRO), DuPage County Republican Central Committee, Illinois Republican Party, Wheaton, Milton Township, DuPage County, and Illinois who have taken the most adverse actions against me. They stopped me from raising funds from DuPage Republicans so that DuPage Republicans could help sponsor Wheaton’s 2021 Independence Day parade and fireworks. They gerrymandered my precinct in 2015. They ended my TAPROOT Republicans of Illinois chairmanship in 2012. They ended my Wheaton Chamber of Commerce Government Affairs Committee membership in 2011. They ended my MTRO webmaster service in 2010 and 2004. They ended my Illinois Center Right Coalition (ICRC) Steering Committee membership in 2007. They almost got ICRC to censure me for my GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters in 2006. They ended my bid to serve as MTRO Treasurer in 2004. They ended my American Association of Political Consultants Midwest Chapter board membership in 2004.)

CNN
— Winsome Sears Blasts CNN On Critical Race Theory!
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m2l9O-hatg0
— COMMENT: Political parties exist to help elect candidates who can and will defend and advance their platform. I should survey the Republican Precinct Committeemen in DuPage County. I would ask them if they support the traditional marriage, right to life, immigration, illegal drugs, Second Amendment, and equal opportunity (no race or gender based preference giving) planks in the Republican Party platform.
https://www.cnn.com/2021/11/07/politics/bannon-podcast-war-room-election-lies/index.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: But Bannon has also urged “War Room” listeners to take long-term action. He has made frequent pleas for supporters to reshape the Republican party by signing up to serve as “precinct committeemen.” Those are low-level local positions. As Bannon has emphasized, though, they matter. People in precinct posts can be influential in choosing representatives to serve on local elections boards and to fill key offices within each state’s party apparatus. They also frequently serve as local elections workers. . .There is no hard data on the impact of Bannon’s call to activism. But ProPublica reported in September that counties around the country had seen an unusual surge in people looking to sign up for Republican precinct positions after Bannon began advocating the idea early this year.)

MSNBC

— More Women Than Men Are Going to College. That May Change the Economy. The rising gender gap in college education — currently three women for every two men — might turn out to be one of the most transformative trends of our time. – Justin Wolfers
(COMMENT: My outstanding wife earned a bachelor’s degree in finance from DePaul in 1986. Most of my GAO superiors, supervisors, coworkers, and subordinates a) did not have a spouse who had a college degree and/or a good job and b) had dependents. They demonized, denigrated, and condemned my wife and I as being selfish rich DINKs (dual income, no kids) a) because my wife had a college degree, b) because my wife had a good job, and c) because we gave up trying to have children, we did not adopt, and we did not become foster parents.)

BOSTON GLOBE
— At the top, a generational shakeup unfolds as boomers begin to step aside. – Robert Weisman
(COMMENT: I should write a book about anti-boomers. I would focus on anti-boomers in Wheaton, Milton Township, DuPage County, and Illinois who have lots of religious, government, political, and/or financial clout. I would focus on anti-boomers who look down on, if not despise, if not hate boomers who are law enforcement officers, Trump supporters, conservative, patriotic, Republican, American, White, male, draft avoiders, heterosexual, married, non-poor, gun owners, Christian, Protestant, Italian American, German American, those whose ancestors have been in America for a long time, and/or American-nameplate vehicle owners.)

(COMMENT: Democrats, Libertarians, Greens, Independents, and RINOs have declared war on Republicans and ever-increasingly make it clear that they want to get rid of Republicans once and for all. Everyone should expect that because of that, for their self-defense, Republicans are buying more and more and more firearms and ammunition, and especially Republicans who are law enforcement officers, Trump supporters, conservative, patriotic, White, male, older, heterosexual, married, non-poor, gun owners, Christian, Protestant, Italian American, German American, and/or those whose ancestors have been in America for a long time.)
