https://www.dailyherald.com/news/20210914/parents-ask-glen-ellyn-officials-to-push-protesting-anti-maskers-away-from-elementary-school
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Former Republican state Rep. Jeanne Ives of Wheaton, who has been promoting school protests against mask use in her emailed newsletter, said it’s the Glen Ellyn parents who have been hurling insults at the protesters. . .Ives said she’s not involved with organizing the Glen Ellyn protest and hasn’t been attending daily. In her Sept. 12 newsletter, she asks readers to “join the dedicated group of parents who are standing up for parental rights in Glen Ellyn” and gives the time and address for the demonstrations. Masks in schools have been required by the state of Illinois since Aug. 4. Ives said there has been “misinformation” spread about the protesters. “There is video evidence of the other side literally dropping swear words left and right,” she said. “Those guys are unhinged.”)

— Gavin Newsom’s White Privilege. Instead of debating ideas, progressives call Larry Elder a white supremacist. – William McGurn (COMMENT: Should everyone involved in politics and in government be required to fully disclose how much education and how much money that their parents’ have/had? Neither of my outstanding parents attended college. My father fought type 1 diabetes from age 14, was the first of his ancestors to earn a high school diploma, worked in the office of a nasty chemical plant in Chicago Heights, almost always worked second jobs to pay the family’s bills, and died suddenly of heart failure in 1969 when I was 21 years old. My mother never attended high school.)
https://www.wsj.com/articles/gavin-newsom-white-privilege-larry-elder-racism-inequality-california-recall-election-11631566580
(FROM THE ARTICLE: If the polls going into Tuesday’s recall election in California hold up, Gavin Newsom will keep his job as governor. But if he does, no one should ever again take seriously progressive complaints about white privilege. Because if white privilege is a thing, Mr. Newsom is drenched in it. Mr. Newsom’s father was a well-connected state judge who once managed one of the trusts for the family of oil magnate J. Paul Getty. As for his son, the Los Angeles Times says that “a coterie of San Francisco’s wealthiest families has backed him at every step of his rise.” This privilege is reflected in the $70 million Mr. Newsom raised to fight the recall—more than five times the $13 million raised by his leading challenger, Republican Larry Elder.)

— Around Chicago, Muslims, Arab Americans say they still face post-9/11 discrimination. A suburban imam says there’s still an element that ‘kind of doesn’t want American Muslims to be part of that remembrance and grieving process. They want Islam to be the enemy.’ – Elvia Malagón
