CRAIN’S CHICAGO BUSINESS
— After Rauner: Ricketts, the IMA and the future of the Illinois GOP The shift of millions of dollars in dark money suggests the fight for control of the Illinois Republican Party is on, with implications for Chicago’s mayoral race, too. – GREG HINZ (DIERSEN: He who pays the piper calls the tunes. As everyone knows, anti-conservatives have always a) dominated the Illinois Republican Party (IRP) and b) blamed conservatives for all losses that Republicans have suffered in Illinois. Those anti-conservatives want the IRP a) to officially demonize, denigrate, condemn, and banish Trump, b) to officially banish Trump supporters from the IRP, c) to officially strike the traditional family, right to life, immigration, and Second Amendment planks from the IRP platform, d) to officially promote LGBTQ activity, abortion, mass/illegal immigration, abolition of the Second Amendment, booze, gambling, pot, and other vices, etc., and e) to officially banish conservatives, that is, Republicans, from the IRP.)
https://www.chicagobusiness.com/greg-hinz-politics/after-rauner-ricketts-ima-and-future-illinois-gop
(FROM THE ARTICLE: All of this is occurring as Republican chatter builds about what will happen after Rauner and the tens of millions of dollars he’s plowed into the party are gone. Ricketts reportedly is interested in stepping up his activity, perhaps with Griffin as a partner, insiders say. The Ricketts clan does have quite a political pedigree, with Todd Ricketts’ brother, Pete Ricketts, now the governor of Nebraska, and his sister, Laura Ricketts, a leading national Democratic donor. Chairman Schneider, in an interview, said his term has well over three more years to run and “at this point,” he expects to complete it. But he conceded that considerable concern about the future is being raised in a party in which conservative activist state Rep. Jeanne Ives almost defeated Rauner in the March primary, and conservative activist Dan Proft, with help from wealthy businessman Dick Uhlein, has been running millions of ads on behalf of Illinois House candidates he says will be independent of both Rauner and Democratic House Speaker Mike Madigan. “I definitely think there will be a change in leadership of the party after Rauner loses,” Ives says. “I expect to sit with all parts of the party after the election,” Schneider told me. “We’ll put our collective heads together to try to sort out things should work together.” As for Ricketts—a spokesman denied to Politico that he or his family are involved in dark money activities—I wish we had a lot of people like Todd,” Schneider said. “He’s a great guy.”)

— Reporter prevented from questioning Kushner (DIERSEN: Political consultants and campaign managers who are Democrats or Democrat plants, Libertarians or Libertarian plants, Greens or Green plants, or RINOs do not want me to ask their candidates any questions. Ever-increasingly, they want me to agree to not ask their candidates any questions before they will let attend their candidates’ press conferences. Ever-increasingly, they want me to agree to not report anything about their fundraisers before they will let me attend their fundraisers. I should write a book about the aforesaid political consultants and campaign managers and what they have done to discourage/stop me from asking their candidates any questions. Since 2005, they have viciously used against me what happened with GOPUSA, Talon News, and White House Correspondent Jeff Gannon. SEE: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talon_News They paint me as being a clone of Jeff Gannon. Ever since I became a GOPUSA reporter in 2000, my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes have hinted/implied/argued/shouted that I ask bad questions, and that because of that, activists, candidates, elected officials, party leaders, major donors, political consultants, etc. should a) stop me from learning about their events and other activities, b) stop me from promoting their events and other activities, c) stop me from attending their events, and d) stop me from reporting on their events and other activities.)

— Ignore that half-million dollars: Republican Lt. Gov. Evelyn Sanguinetti was on Quad Cities radio on Thursday to promote Gov. Rauner and told listeners the campaign doesn’t rely on polls. “We never relied on polls four years ago. We’re not relying upon polls now,” Sanguinetti said on WOC-AM in Davenport, Iowa, when asked about surveys showing the Rauner ticket trailing Democrat J.B. Pritzker by double digits. “Yeah, we do have internals that say something different. But so what? Right now we’re getting out there, we’re communicating with the people in all our counties,” she said. Team Rauner has spent $537,704 on polling since April 2017, including $143,000 from July through September of this year, state campaign records show. For the campaign four years ago, Rauner’s campaign did not directly identify any spending on polling. – Rick Pearson

CHICAGO TRIBUNE
— FRONT PAGE WITH COLOR PICTURE: Campaign signs are everywhere. But do they work? – Kate Thayer (DIERSEN: What has your Republican Precinct Committeeman/Captain done to encourage the Republican voters in your precinct to display signs for the Republican candidates on the November 6, 2018 ballot in your precinct? In August, I hand-delivered a letter (https://gopillinois.com/documents/) to all the homes in my precinct that had at least one registered Republican voter that asked them to consider displaying yard signs for the Republican candidates on the November 6, 2018 ballot in our precinct. The letter included a listing of all the candidates and the office that they are running for. I hand-delivered the letter a second time in September to the Republican homes on the busier streets in my precinct – Roosevelt Road, Warrenville Road, and Elm Street. Since September 4, 2018 my two Roskam 4X4s and my two “Vote Republican” 4X4s have been displayed on the second floor balcony of Ron Dell’s building at the southeast corner of Roosevelt and Warrenville in my precinct. Three 4X3 Roskam signs are being displayed on Warrenville south of Roosevelt, one at Park and Wheaton by Whittier Grade School, one at Elm and Wheaton by Edison Middle School, and one at Warrenville and Arbor.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: Republicans, though, have attacked Casten’s business career in campaign ads, zeroing in on a 2015 lawsuit filed by an investor in Recycled Energy Development, which converted emissions from power plants into energy. Casten was the company’s president and CEO. The suit leveled allegations of mismanagement against Casten and the company’s leadership, including “baseless accounting manipulations,” “inflated salaries,” “improperly inflated bonuses” and “irresponsible spending,” according to court documents. Casten and his family eventually settled with the investor’s management firm and sold the company. Letters sent to investors in RED in the lead-up to the sale that were obtained by the Chicago Tribune stated that while preferred interest holders in RED would recoup their investment plus interest, common interest investors would not.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: Anonymous attack letters sent to Woodstock residents with Democratic political signage on their lawns has pushed a pair of Republican leaders in McHenry County to speak against hate rhetoric in the community. “I condemn the coward(s) who wrote these letters, and ask anyone with any bit of concern for the direction in which our public conversation has gone to do the same,” state Rep. Steve Reick, R-Woodstock, said in a statement. “This transcends party, and silence is not an option.” The typed letters, signed by “The Phantom” and “The Wizard,” arrived in the mail last week for Woodstock Democrats Sarah Parisi and Lou Ness. The letters included no return address and attacked the residents for the signs planted in their yards supporting local Democrats.)

— BEYOND TRAGIC: U.N.: 40 Percent of U.S. Births Occur Outside of Marriage – Dr. Susan Berry
https://www.breitbart.com/politics/2018/10/18/u-n-40-percent-of-u-s-births-occur-outside-of-marriage/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: A new report from the U.N. Population Fund (UNFPA) says 40 percent of all births in the United States occur outside of marriage, an increase from 10 percent in 1970. The data show births outside marriage in the European Union (EU) are up even greater. “The data show such births in the U.S. and EU are predominantly to unmarried couples living together rather than to single mothers,” Bloomberg reports. Michael Hermann, UNFPA’s senior adviser on economics and demography, told Bloomberg the EU likely has even more out-of-wedlock births than the U.S. because its member countries provide greater amounts of welfare and public health funding in their socialized medicine programs. Unwed parents are also provided with tax incentives, Hermann said. Kelly Jones, director for the Center on the Economics of Reproductive Health at the Institute for Women’s Policy Research, reportedly said the data show cultural and religious norms about women and marriage have changed, and women are starting families later in life. In the U.S., the average age a woman has her first child is now 27, according to the data, up from 22 in 1970. “Women are claiming their ground professionally,” Jones said. “Delaying motherhood is a rational decision when you consider the impact it can have on your career, and that’s contributing to this trend.” The marriage rate has also declined in the U.S., according to the U.S. Census Bureau, as the number of cohabitating adults has risen. In addition, the U.S. fertility rate plummeted last year to a record low. John Santelli, professor at Columbia’s Mailman School of Public Health, told Bloomberg the traditional culture of the West “has been reversed.” “Cohabiting partners are having children before getting married,” he said. “That’s a long-term trend across developing nations.” Hermann said the trend in the cultural shift will continue. “We can’t go back to ’50s,” he said. UNFPA is the largest international provider of sexual and reproductive health services – which include abortion. The U.N. agency has been linked to the support of population control programs such as China’s coercive abortion “one-child policy.” Soon after his inauguration in 2017, President Donald Trump signed an executive order that reinstated and updated the “Mexico City Policy,” thereby ending UNFPA’s U.S. funding because of its support and funding of abortion.)

— Can the Office Gray Gracefully? – NEALE GODFREY (DIERSEN: During the 1980s and the 1990s, GAO did not gray gracefully. GAO wasted the careers of and got rid of its employees who were Republican, White, male, and/or non-veteran who GAO had not promoted to GS-13 (currently $96,403) by age 25, GS-14 (currently $113,920) by age 30, GS-15 (currently $134,000) by age 35, and Senior Executive Service (currently $164,200) by age 40.)
https://www.kiplinger.com/article/retirement/T012-C032-S014-can-the-office-gray-gracefully.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Remember the good old days when your career goal was to be employed by one company and stay there until your glorious retirement? In fact, over 40% of Baby Boomers stayed with their job for more than 20 years, and 18% stayed at least 39 years, according to a NORC Center for Public Affairs Research survey. Pensions and stability were clearly driving forces. You could then look forward to your retirement party, which would include a toast to your long service, a gold watch and a pension that, along with Social Security, would guarantee you a financially secure life.)

http://www.chicagotribune.com/news/local/politics/ct-met-morning-spin-ken-griffin-jim-durkin-20181017-story.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The socially conservative Illinois Family Institute said it was rescinding its endorsement of Republican state Sen. Sam McCann’s Conservative Party bid for governor because of a McCann mailer attacking GOP state Rep. Tom Morrison of Palatine. McCann’s mail piece accuses Morrison of being a “Rauner RINO,” a reference to the acronym for “Republican in Name Only.” It reads: “Don’t vote for fake conservatives Bruce Rauner or Tom Morrison.” Rauner has come under fire from social conservatives for supporting legislation expanding abortion, immigration and transgender rights. On its website, the Family Institute accused McCann of an “11th-hour betrayal” of Morrison, who is facing a challenge from Democrat Maggie Trevor of Rolling Meadows. McCann’s candidacy is being funded almost entirely by labor union affiliates of the Operating Engineers. The institute accused McCann of being “bought and paid for” by unions.)

GOPUSA ILLINOIS email subscriptions are worth at least $1,000 a year. I spend thousands of dollars each year for newspaper subscriptions, website expenses, and internet expenses. GOPUSA ILLINOIS emails have gone out each and every morning since 2004 and each and every evening since 2015. Those emails have included links to more than 315,200 articles and information on many upcoming events. It takes me about an hour for each 6 links. That means that since 2004, I have spent about 52,500 hours of what is left of my life putting GOPUSA ILLINOIS emails together and sending them out free of charge and without any advertising. The main reason why I have a) less money to give Republican candidates, b) more time to use GOPUSA ILLINOIS emails to help elect those candidates, and c) more motivation to help elect those candidates is the success that my Democrat superiors in the federal government had in wasting my career and forcing me to take their early retirement “offer” in 1997 when I was 49 years old.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: Illinois’ 6th Congressional District Republican candidate: Pete Roskam (incumbent) Democratic candidate: Sean Casten
CBS News Battleground Tracker Rating: Edge Democrat Democrats are eager to capture Illinois’ 6th Congressional District, which Clinton won by 7 points in 2016. Rep. Pete Roskam is relatively conservative for his wealthy, well-educated suburban district outside of Chicago. He votes in line with the president nearly 95 percent of the time, according to FiveThirtyEight. He also opposes abortion and once called climate change “junk science” — even though he is currently a member of the House Climate Solutions caucus. Roskam voted for the tax overhaul and to repeal and replace the Affordable Care Act in 2017. Democrat Sean Casten holds views diametrically opposed to Roskam’s on climate change, as a scientist and a founder of a clean-energy company. Casten is also one of the Democrats running for office who has been endorsed by Obama. Although there has been very little polling in the race, a September poll by the New York Times found Casten trailing Roskam by one point.)

LEADER & TIMES
— Calls of illegitimacy are first steps of declaring civil war – Larry Phillips (DIERSEN: I should write a book about those who treat me like I am not a legitimate reporter. They include activists, candidates, elected officials, party leaders, major donors, political consultants in Wheaton, in Glen Ellyn, in Milton Township, in DuPage County, and in Illinois. They a) reject planks in the Republican Party platform and/or the Illinois Republican Party platform and work against those like me who support those planks, b) reject the Milton Township Republican Central Committee resolution against video gambling and work against those like me who support that resolution, c) focus on destroying those like me who they cannot manipulate/dominate, d) were defendants in lawsuits that I have filed, and/or e) are operatives or dupes for the aforesaid. The aforesaid candidates glorify and praise, pander to, give news scoops to, return phone calls from, and/or give money to a) Rich Miller and/or b) the rest of the Democrat news media in Illinois.)

IRS promoted me in 1972, 1973, and 1974 and GAO promoted me in 1986. In my defense, I earned a) a job-related bachelor’s degree when I was 21 in 1970 and job-related master’s degrees when I was 27, 31, and 48, b) job-related professional certifications when I was 30, 32, 41, 45, 47, and 48, and c) a job-related professional license when I was 32.)

https://www.cpajournal.com/2018/09/21/reflections-on-my-66-years-in-public-accounting/

(FROM THE ARTICLE: The concept of “up-or-out”—either get promoted in a reasonable time or find another job—did not exist until around 1965, when the large firms started to adopt the policy. Eight years after starting at Touche and after many rapid promotions, I was made a partner at the age of 31. I did not think I was too young to be a partner; others did. Today, 40 years after I left the firm, I am amazed how often someone introducing me says, “He was a partner of Deloitte,” to establish my credentials.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: 1. Eliminate electronic distractions Distractions can increase your workload and stress levels. The constant ding of e-mail and text notifications and Internet temptations can easily disrupt your focus and concentration. According to a study by the University of California, Irvine, it can take up to 23 minutes before you’re able to refocus on the work you were doing before you were interrupted. To start, set up temporary barriers to help keep you focused. Some web tools that can help are Freedom, a website blocker for your computer and phone, and Inbox Pause, which stops new e-mails from coming into your inbox for a time. While the prospect of quieting electronic noise like this may seem daunting at first, it can help maximize your work day and minimize the amount of overtime needed.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: The specific provision in the bill that Foster and the nine other representatives were concerned about was the cap on deducting state and local taxes, known as the SALT deduction, to $10,000 a year. “The newest tax scam hurts families in Illinois by making the cap on state and local tax deductions for individuals permanent, and I call on Governor Rauner to address the damage the new tax law will have on Illinois taxpayers,” Foster said in a statement. “I opposed both pieces of legislation because they impose a significant burden on hardworking Illinoisans.” The letter states the representatives are “disappointed” Rauner didn’t oppose the SALT deduction provision in the bill and said other states have already taken steps to offer solutions.)

POLITICO ILLINOIS
— Conservative mega-donor Richard Uihlein and Gov. Bruce Rauner parted ways bitterly after Rauner signed the HB40 abortion legislation supported by pro-choice advocates. Uihlein went on to bankroll Republican state Rep. Jeanne Ives’ primary campaign to the tune of $2.5 million. When she lost, Uihlein seemed to step back from political races. He gave only $1.5 million to various candidates across the state during Q2. That changed in Q3. He ramped up his support, giving $3.5 million to Dan Proft’s conservative Liberty Principles PAC, which is backing numerous GOP candidates in statehouse races. Uihlein also gave $150,000 to Bill Brady’s state Senate campaign in the 44th District (he’s running unopposed); and $300,000 to Barrett Davie, who’s running against Dem incumbent Julie Morrison for the 29th state Senate District seat. – Shia Kapos

WALL STREET JOURNAL
— An Asian-American Dissident at Harvard Of course I’m grateful to have been admitted despite my background. But why shouldn’t I be critical? – Kelley Babphavong (DIERSEN: The Democrats who run the federal government use Affirmative Action, Diversity, and Inclusion to not hire and to get rid of those who are Republican, White, male, and/or non-veteran who the Democrats who run the federal government do not promote to GS-13 (currently $96,403) by age 25, GS-14 (currently $113,920) by age 30, GS-15 (currently $134,000) by age 35, and Senior Executive Service (currently $164,200) by age 40. GAO hired me in 1980 because it could not find a qualified Democrat, minority, female, younger person, or veteran who would take the job. IRS hired me in 1971 because it could not find a qualified Democrat, minority, female, or veteran who would take the job. The Post Office hired me in 1966 because it could not find a qualified Democrat, minority, female, or veteran who would take the job.)
https://www.wsj.com/articles/an-asian-american-dissident-at-harvard-1539546451
(FROM THE ARTICLE: It’s not easy to voice my opinion about Harvard’s admissions policies on campus. For all the talk about “diversity,” many fellow students won’t tolerate my views. I often get comments such as, “How can you be against affirmative action? That’s racist,” and “You should be grateful to Harvard. Why are you critical of them?” . . . On campus, I’m often labeled as ignorant and bigoted for opposing affirmative action. I’m one of the few students who openly criticize Harvard. Even among friends and fellow Asian-American students, this is a polarizing issue that has fallen on partisan lines. Yet real alternatives to race-based affirmative action exist. Race-blind admissions processes that prioritize socioeconomic status, taking into account how applicants have dealt with life’s challenges, would do a far better job of creating genuine diversity. Asian-Americans know they are being unfairly discriminated against under a defense of diversity. Let’s hope the courts recognize it too.)

http://www.chicagotribune.com/business/ct-biz-religious-health-care-cost-sharing-1014-story.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The Barazza family belongs to a health care sharing ministry, a religious nonprofit in which members pay for each other’s health care needs. Compared with traditional health insurance premiums, ministries’ monthly member costs are often much lower. But unlike traditional insurance, members must often commit to religious principles. The ministries generally won’t pay for services that don’t align with those principles, such as abortion and substance abuse treatment, and they often limit coverage of pre-existing conditions and prescriptions.)

http://www.chicagotribune.com/suburbs/daily-southtown/opinion/ct-sta-slowik-highest-paid-superintendent-st-1011-story.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: A system that rewards public servants with excessive compensation should rile south suburban homeowners struggling to pay high property taxes and other bills. Paraday’s base salary this year is $309,306, but that’s only part of the story. The cost of health insurance, an annuity, pension contributions, a car allowance and other expenses drove Paraday’s total compensation for the year to $407,145 — making him the highest-paid superintendent in Illinois. Paraday oversees 1,130 students in three schools, which were delayed from opening in August due to mold in the junior high. Yet, Paraday makes more than the CEO of Chicago Public Schools, who oversees 371,382 students in 644 schools. Open the Books, a Burr Ridge-based watchdog group, discovered that on top of his other compensation, Paraday is set to receive a “golden handshake” of $762,615 for unused paid days off. “Unused, earned sick leave, unused vacation days and unused personal business days shall be allowed to (accumulate), without limit,” Paraday’s contract states. “The superintendent, at his discretion, may submit for payment, at the current per diem, any unused sick, personal or vacation day(s).” Paraday, 56, who has been superintendent since 2005, accumulated 567 days at a rate of $1,345 per day, Open the Books said, based on information it obtained from the district through the Freedom of Information Act. “The bloated Illinois education bureaucracy rewards those who know how to play the pay-and-pension lottery,” Adam Andrzejewski, Open the Books founder and CEO said in a statement. “It’s time the dollars start following the children rather than the bureaucracy.”)

Under the new plan, taxpayers will be able deduct state individual income, sales and property taxes up to $10,000. The deduction is currently unlimited. All Illinois Dems but Rep. Dan Lipinski signed the letter saying the provision will have “serious consequences for Illinoisans.” – Shia Kapos (DIERSEN: Roskam should increase the $10,000 SALT cap to $20,000 for married filing jointly.)
