(FROM THE ARTICLE: Erika Harold is used to overcoming challenges. But the 37-year-old Urbana, Ill., attorney and former Miss America recently had a beauty of an obstacle removed from her political path, as Illinois Attorney General Lisa Madigan is not seeking a fifth term. “I announced my candidacy on Aug. 15 and exactly one month later, Lisa Madigan decided to drop out of the race,” Ms. Harold (who wants to become the state’s next chief law-enforcement officer) said Sunday at the Rock Island County Republicans’ annual Ronald Reagan BBQ at Pinnacle Country Club. “We’ve done very well so far.” She graduated from University of Illinois and was accepted at Harvard Law School, but it cost $175,000 for three years. Ms. Harold became Miss America in 2003 to help pay for law school, from which she graduated in 2007, debt-free. She’s been a practicing attorney ever since and has run for the 13th Congressional District seat in Illinois. “I see a state government that’s out of control,” Ms. Harold said. “I see a state government that’s not accountable to the rule of law, and I want to see an Attorney General’s office that works for the people. I want an Attorney General’s office that does not pick and choose the laws it enforces.” She wants to fight public corruption and hold lawmakers accountable. “That has not been done in the past 16 years,” Ms. Harold claimed of Ms. Madigan, whose father is longtime House Speaker Mike Madigan. “Too often that office is used in ways that benefit the politician,” she said. “It does not work on the side of the people.” Having been harassed in high school, Ms. Harold said she knows what it’s like to feel powerless. “People are fed up with what they see in government, on both sides of the aisle,” she said. “I am a committed, independent voice, willing to hold both sides accountable.” Ms. Harold also said she’s a fighter, and an unconventional GOP candidate. “I’m not the kind of person people think of when they think of the Republican Party,” she said. “I will win because I will not be out-worked.”)

https://townhall.com/columnists/derekhunter/2017/09/17/fundamentally-wrong-about-fundamental-rights-n2382661
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Did you realize you have a right to not be offended? That you have a right to other people’s property and their labor? Were you unaware that you, as a citizen, have the same rights in the United States of America as an illegal alien? These are among the newly declared “rights” Democrats have bestowed on people through the power of simply saying they exist. The problem is this concept is fundamentally un-American. Our rights as Americans are not granted to us by the government. Our government is empowered by us on the condition it does not infringe upon the rights with which we were born. The Founding Fathers were brilliant in that they wrote the Constitution to limit government, not citizens. The First Amendment, for example, is explicit in how it starts, “Congress shall make no law…” The rights to free speech, freedom of religion, the press, assembly, etc., are not granted by the Constitution, they are protected from government by it. The whole of the Bill of Rights is written the same way, “Shall not be infringed,” etc. Since the government is not granting those individual rights – we were born with them – it can’t take them away. For liberal progressives, this concept is a threat – they prefer the government being not only the protector of rights, but the decider of what is and is not a right. That’s not liberty; it’s closer to slavery. And slavery is what the left-wing Antifa would like to impose on the country.)

DAILY CALLER

Since 1999, I have exercised less and less and less, I have put on 50 pounds, I have come down with uncontrolled type 2 diabetes, my gall bladder has been taken out, I have had tremendously expensive dental problems, diabetes medications increasingly cause me tremendous digestive problems, my eyesight is failing, etc. I would be dead by now if my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes had not succeeded in ending my TAPROOT Republicans of Illinois chairmanship in 2012, my Wheaton Chamber of Commerce Government Affairs Committee membership in 2011, my Milton Township Republican Central Committee webmaster service in 2010 and 2004, my Illinois Center Right Coalition Steering Committee membership in 2007, my American Association of Political Consultants Midwest Chapter board membership in 2004, and my GAO employment in 1997.)
http://dailycaller.com/2017/09/17/washington-post-writer-says-trump-is-killing-him-literally/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Dana Milbank, a writer for The Washington Post, believes President Donald Trump is literally killing him. Milbank said he discovered Trump’s presidency is affecting his health after visiting the doctor for his first physical in 49 years, in an opinion piece published Friday. Milbank said he had to report that he had not been feeling well recently. “President Trump is killing me. No, really. He’s killing me,” Milbank wrote. The WaPo writer said he has been suffering from fatigue, headaches, trouble sleeping, and chest pain. Milbank said his blood pressure was “alarmingly high” after his doctor tested it, making a point that his blood pressure has “always been normal.” Milbank said he was suffering from “Trump Hypertensive Unexplained Disorder,” a disorder he created and diagnosed himself with. “For almost five decades, I had been the picture of health, but eight months into Trump’s presidency, I was suddenly ailing,” he wrote. “Trump is the only variable, I told my doctor. ‘He sure is variable,’ my doc replied, endorsing the diagnosis.” Throughout Milbank’s piece he explained how he knows his “disorder” caused by Trump is a real thing, claiming he performed a longitudinal study to test his “hypothesis.” Milbank said he purchased a blood pressure monitor and would wrap it around his bicep throughout various parts of the daily news cycle. “I am spending the evening with friends. Blood pressure: 116/67. Trump says he is going to respond to North Korea with ‘fire and fury.’ Blood pressure: 150/95,” Milbank continued. “I’m at home with the kids. Blood pressure: 117/69. Jeff Sessions says they’re scrapping the DACA program: 137/92.” Milbank said he has spoken with psychotherapists who have told him that they are unusually busy with clients who continue to speak about Trump. He claims that Trump is “exacerbating whatever neurosis, depression or other conditions they had.” The WaPo writer said he addressed his self-diagnosed illness of Trump Hypertensive Unexplained Disorder with blood pressure medication prescribed by his doctor. “My prescription is renewable until January 2021, at which point I expect it will no longer be medically necessary,” he concluded.)

EDITOR AND PUBLISHER
— To Avoid Media Bias, News Organizations Are Lifting the Veil – Gretchen A. Peck  (DIERSEN: Ever-increasingly, “news organizations” focus on destroying Trump and destroying his supporters, and especially his supporters who are Protestant, conservative, 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.)
http://www.editorandpublisher.com/feature/to-avoid-media-bias-news-organizations-are-lifting-the-veil/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Take note of conversations about policy, politics or politicians. Often, they will devolve into a smearing of sources and the news organizations that provided the information; they’re perceived as being for one ideology and against another. It would be disingenuous to suggest that there are not news organizations that have a definitive perspective when it comes to controversial topics such as these. The same might be said for journalists and pundits, too, and the public has become hip to it. In fact, when you consider how most consumers of news choose their sources of information, which often align with their own perspectives and beliefs, it’s easy to see how the lines in the sand have been drawn. Part of the daily mission for many conservative news outlets is to seed distrust among fans, making them leery of all other sources of information from “the liberal media,” including local, regional and national newspapers. Meanwhile, representing the Left, there are organizations like Media Matters for America, which spend resources on correcting or exposing misinformation perpetuated by conservative news sources. And on social media, “fake news” lives on. The public is rightfully confused and unnecessarily agitated, and newspaper brands have suffered because of it. Objectivity as a Guidepost  Perhaps the greatest misconception that the public has about journalists and the business of newsgathering is that pure objectivity is not just possible, but that it’s the whole job. What they may not realize is that sticking to “just the facts,” or merely the “who, what, when, where, and why,” makes for an interminably hollow story, like a naked skeleton. It lacks context, flavor, understanding based on research and knowledge. A “just the facts” story is both boring to read and a dereliction of a journalist’s duty to go beyond the “5 Ws,” with insight, perspectives, and things that become known during the newsgathering that should not be unknown for the sake of appearing purely objective.)
