— A midnight dinner with Fidel Castro – Michael Sneed  (DIERSEN: Those in Wheaton, in Glen Ellyn, in Milton Township, in DuPage County, and Illinois who promote Castro have always worked very hard against me.  They continue to this day to blame me for all of George Ryan’s problems.)
http://chicago.suntimes.com/news/sneed-a-night-with-castro/
(PHOTO CAPTION: Chicago Sun-Times columnist Michael Sneed, center, shares a toast with Cuban President Fidel Castro, right, during a reception before a dinner at the Palace of the Revolution Jan. 24, 2002. Illinois Gov. George Ryan, left, joins in the toast.)
— IRS agent William Witkowski an answer to prosecutors’ prayers – Mark Brown  (DIERSEN: I worked for GAO on audits of IRS’s Criminal Investigation Division 1986-1988.  I worked for IRS’s Collection Division 1971-1980.)
http://chicago.suntimes.com/politics/brown-irs-agent-an-answer-to-prosecutors-prayers/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Political corruption will never be eliminated in Chicago, but some people will tell you nobody ever did more to slow it down than William Witkowski. Those who are old enough should recognize the names of Witkowski’s investigative targets: Illinois Gov. Otto Kerner, powerhouse Ald. Thomas Keane, Attorney General William Scott, Judge Reginald Holzer and John Cardinal Cody. Others will recognize the lawyers who gained prominence prosecuting them: Jim Thompson, Sam Skinner, Tyrone Fahner, Jeremy Margolis and Scott Turow. But very few are familiar with the former IRS agent whose extraordinary investigative skills made those cases — and in the process made him a legend in certain circles. Witkowski died Nov. 13 from complications of multiple sclerosis. He was 74. Never one to take bows during his lifetime, Witkowski will have to suffer these accolades in silence. “Bill Witkowski was the single best investigator I have ever known,” said veteran investigative reporter Edward Pound, formerly of the Chicago Sun-Times. I’m quoting Pound here because many people regard him as the single best investigator ever to work in my business, and it takes one to know one. But everyone who spoke to me about Witkowski offered the same sort of superlative assessment without reservation. “We wouldn’t have been able to do the prosecutions we did without him,” said Fahner, the prosecutor who convicted Keane and went on to become Illinois Attorney General and later a successful lawyer with Mayer Brown. In the 1970s and 1980s, it was the IRS that did most of the heavy lifting on political corruption in Illinois. And in that circle, Witkowski gained a reputation as the alpha dog. Many recall his unassuming style. A large man with a flat top brush cut, Witkowski looked more the part of the neighborhood guy he was than anybody’s notion of an IRS agent.)

WORLD SOCIALIST WEB SITE
— Incoming Trump administration prepares assault on federal workers – Nick Barrickman  (DIERSEN: Because I was a federal employee for almost 30 years, my critics/opponent, their operatives, and their dupes have always foisted negative federal employee stereotypes on me. In my defense, I earned a) a job-related bachelor’s degree when I was 21 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 33.)
http://www.wsws.org/en/articles/2016/11/25/trum-n25.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The incoming Trump administration has singled out civilian federal employees for attacks on jobs, employment security and pensions. According to the Washington Post, “President-elect Donald Trump and the Republican-controlled Congress are drawing up plans to take on the government bureaucracy they have long railed against, by eroding job protections and grinding down benefits that federal workers have received for a generation.”  The federal civil service, which consists of over 2.75 million workers, excluding members of the armed forces, the judiciary and elected officials, has come under relentless attack from the political right for decades. Right-wing propaganda depicts federal workers as overpaid and privileged drones in an attempt to divide the working class and divert anger over declining living standards and growing inequality against a section of the working class itself. The aim is to dismantle whatever remains of job protections and benefits that are based on civil service laws and contracts with federal employee unions. This is despite the best efforts of the unions over many years to help impose job cuts and wage and benefit concessions. In 2012, House Republicans proposed a 10 percent federal workforce reduction as part of their fiscal budget for that year. According to the Post, the incoming administration will implement “[h]iring freezes, an end to automatic raises, a green light to fire poor performers, a ban on union business on the government’s dime and less generous pensions.” In addition, the Trump White House will seek “guidance” from the Republican governor of Wisconsin, Scott Walker, who in 2011 provoked mass protests at the state capital by shredding public employee rights and imposing sweeping concessions on public workers. The new administration will also follow the example of Vice President-elect Mike Pence, who, as governor of Indiana, tied state worker pay to performance ratings. According to Jason Chaffetz, Republican congressman from Utah and chairman of the House Committee on Government Oversight and Reform, the plan to slash federal employee pensions will be modeled on his home state, which recently replaced defined benefit pensions with market-based defined contribution plans such as 401(k)s. The switch from traditional pensions will initially affect newly hired workers, according to press reports. The assault on federal workers is based on the ten-point “Contract with the American Voter” released by Donald Trump in late October. The statement declared that within its first 100 days in office, the Trump administration would enact “a hiring freeze on all federal employees to reduce the federal workforce through attrition (exempting military, public safety, and public health).” The Post quotes former House Speaker Newt Gingrich, a member of Trump’s transition team, as saying that Stephen Bannon, Trump’s chief White House strategist, will lead the attack on federal workers. Until signing on as the head of Trump’s presidential campaign last August, Bannon headed the Breitbart News web site, a platform for the fascistic alt-right that regularly rails against the so-called “privileged class” of government workers in Washington. Contrary to the myth of a ballooning “big government” promoted by the right wing, the US civil service has undergone numerous cutbacks in its workforce under both Republican and Democratic presidents. As a result, the number of federal employees today is consistent with the number employed in the 1960s, despite a near-doubling of the US population since then. A likely precedent for Trump’s plan to slash workers’ pay and job protections is the 2014 Veterans’ Choice Act, signed into law by President Obama. Passed during the scandal at the Department of Veterans’ Affairs (VA) that year, the law facilitates the firing of VA workers while giving employees less than a week to appeal their dismissal. Prior to the Veterans’ Choice Act, workers had the option of appealing their dismissal to the Merit Systems Protection Board, established as part of the civil service system to prevent politically motivated firings. Under a Trump administration, such firings are likely to become the rule. During the presidential campaign, Trump regularly declared that if elected he would shut down government agencies such as the Environmental Protection Agency and the Department of Education. At the same time, Trump is pledging a massive increase in military spending and packing his administration-in-waiting with military figures. The planned assault on federal workers exposes the cynicism behind repeated statements by Democratic Party leaders—from Obama and incoming Senate Democratic Leader Charles Schumer to Bernie Sanders and Elizabeth Warren—suggesting that Trump may enact measures to improve the lot of workers and pledging their readiness to collaborate with him. The American Federation of Government Employees (AFGE), the largest federal employee union, has remained silent on Trump’s agenda. On November 9, the day after the election, AFGE President J. David Cox Sr. released a brief press statement declaring, “We ?will work with the Trump administration on areas of common ground, as we have with every administration for generations.”)

http://chicago.suntimes.com/opinion/mona-charen-thankful-for-our-pets/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Americans spent $15.4 billion on veterinary care in 2015 (only half of it by my family). The average American spends more on pets annually than on alcohol, landline phones or men’s and boys’ clothing. We spend more on veterinary care for our dogs than the average person spends for his own medical care in the Dominican Republic, Egypt, India and many other countries. Even knowing that we’re a devoted nation of pet lovers, it’s still surreal to visit the specialists’ office and see the range of possibilities on the office wall — cardiology, gastroenterology, ophthalmology, etc, etc. We’ll need the oncologist soon.)

RUSS STEWART
— CLINTON GOT 83.7% OF CHICAGO VOTE, BUT THERE WERE STILL 134,792 “DEPLORABLES” (DIERSEN: I am a deplorable, that is, I am a Republican. If I had more time, I would analyze the DuPage vote and the Milton Township vote to identify those precincts which have the most deplorabes in total and as a percentage of registered voters.)
http://www.russstewart.com/articles/2016/11-23-2016.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Mark Twain popularized the saying that there are “lies, damn lies, and statistics.” In Chicago, and by extrapolation Cook County and Illinois, there were truths, damn truths and stunning statistics on Nov. 8. The most fundamental truth is that when a candidate such as Hillary Clinton wins Chicago 907,920-134,792, a margin of 773,128 votes, Illinois is gone. There is no way for a Republican to counteract that vote margin in the Collar Counties and Downstate. Clinton won the state by 859,319 votes, with Chicago supplying 90 percent of that margin. Chicago may be a “sanctuary city,” but Republicans are vanishing quicker than illegal aliens. Wait a minute, are any “undocumenteds” vanishing? Mitt Romney got 148,181 votes in Chicago in 2012, while Donald Trump got 134,792 votes, a paltry 12.4 percent and a diminution of 13,389 votes, on Nov. 8. Trump won a majority in 25, or 1.2 percent, of Chicago’s 2,116 precincts, four in the 41st Ward and two in the 38th Ward on the Northwest Side and 13 in the 19th Ward, four in the 23rd Ward and two in the 13th Ward on the Southwest Side. Trump averaged an anemic 63 votes per precinct. Bruce Rauner averaged 64 votes in 2014, but Pat Quinn got 407,107 fewer votes than Clinton did. On that trajectory, by 2028 or soon thereafter, the Republican vote may fall under 5 percent countywide and Republicans would lose their ballot line. Clinton got 95.4 percent of the vote in Chicago’s 18 black-majority wards, 87.1 percent in the 11 Hispanic-majority wards and 84.6 percent in the seven affluent, mostly white, Lakefront wards. Chicago has become “Manhattan West,” or maybe “San Francisco East,” conspicuously, congenitally and compulsively liberal. As for Chicago’s black wards, they’re “Harlem West,” with Trump’s 13,286 votes here only slightly exceeding his total in New York’s predominantly black neighborhood. Trump got 3 percent or less of the vote in 11 of the 18 black-majority wards. He lost the 24th Ward 15,932-245. Trump averaged 738 votes in those 18 wards. The Republicans have ceased to be a nuisance, and they now are a nonentity. Truth number one is that, like the rest of the country, Clinton did not replicate Obama’s 2012 showing among black voters. Obama got 422,727 votes in the black-majority Chicago wards in 2012, while Clinton got 363,621 in this election, a falloff of 59,100 votes, as is shown in the attached chart. In Illinois that decline didn’t matter, as Clinton’s vote increased among Hispanics and white liberals. You can’t lose Illinois coming out of Chicago with a 907,920-134,792, 83.7 percent, majority, which is a margin of 773,128 votes. However, Clinton got 54,818 more votes in Chicago than Obama got in 2012. Clinton won Illinois by 859,319 votes, almost as good as Obama’s 884,296-vote margin in 2012. In other urbanized Great Lakes states, such as Michigan, Wisconsin and Pennsylvania, a 10 to 15 percent decline in the black vote tipped those states to Trump. Truth number two is that, unlike the rest of the country, white male blue collar workers and those in law enforcement failed to defect to Trump in significant numbers. Only in the Far Northwest Side 41st Ward, which is chock full of cops and firefighters, did Trump even come close. The Clinton-Trump vote was 14,042-11,457, a 52.3 percent win and a margin of 2,585 votes, with Trump winning a majority in four of 47 precincts and getting 40 to 49 percent of the vote in another 28. Clinton actually did better there than Obama, who won 13,134-11,048. Clinton got 908 more votes than Obama got in 2012, while Trump, who got 42.6 percent of the vote in the ward, ran just 409 votes ahead of Romney, who got 44.9 percent. Given all the hysteria and the nasty $4 million Michael McAuliffe-Merry Marwig race for state representative, turnout in the 41st Ward increased from 24,634 in 2012 to 26,867 in this election. The 41st Ward encompasses Edison Park, Norwood Park and Oriole Park, and it is to Chicago what Staten Island is to New York, an enclave of conservativism. McAuliffe won the ward 11,050-7,783. Debatably, the Trump vote was more of a positive than a negative for McAuliffe. McAuliffe said that he had “a lot of Trump negativity” in the Park Ridge areas of the district, but that wasn’t the case in the 41st Ward, which has 34 precincts in the district. In fact, the Nov. 8 statistics are astounding. On the Northwest Side, except for the recalcitrant 41st Ward, the Clinton vote was 5 to 10 percent greater than the 2012 Obama vote.)

WORKER’S WORLD
— Trump targets federal workers – Carl Lewis  (DIERSEN: When you first learn that someone is a federal employee or a retired federal employee, what does that make you think of that person?  Ever-increasingly, individuals, organizations, companies, governments, and countries despise if not hate federal employees and federal retirees.  I was a federal employee for almost 30 years and I have been a federal retiree for more than 19 years.)
http://www.workers.org/2016/11/23/trump-targets-federal-workers/#.WDbIDhHxZZI
(FROM THE ARTICLE: There is evidence that the incoming Trump administration plans to target federal workers, including privatizing the Department of Veteran Affairs, to reduce the size of the federal workforce and substantially cut wages. Among the right-wing ideologues and advisors to Donald Trump on federal workers is Newt Gingrich, coauthor of the infamous “Contract with America” (more aptly called a “Contract ON ‘America’ “) released by the Republican Party in 1994. It outlined austerity plans to decimate the working class as a whole and to specifically target federal workers. Gingrich was asked how this change would be managed in an interview with Lisa Rein of the Washington Post. “So there are two groups in Washington on this issue who are initially opposed,” stated Gingrich. “First you have the hard-line federal employee unions. They’re like the teachers union in New York. They are parallels. They are the group, that no matter how sick it is, they have a vested interest in the old order.” (Oct. 19). These cryptic comments refer to limiting collective bargaining rights, removing due process rights and cutting wages. Gingrich holds up Scott Walker, the anti-union governor of Wisconsin who devastated public employee unions and employee pensions, as a model. Gingrich used the example of short-staffed VA workers in Texas who were forced by management, under penalty of being charged with “insubordination,” to make phony appointments for veterans and then list them as “no-shows.” Instead of placing the blame where it should be — on incompetent and corrupt management officials who received bonuses for the volume of calls received and answered — he blames the workers who are the victims. This scam was finally exposed by an employee whistleblower and led to a shakeup in the agency. Like sharks smelling blood and going into a feeding frenzy, the ruling class began to use this example to put federal workers further under the chopping block. Paul Ryan, current Speaker of the House, views federal workers as a “privileged class.” When Ryan sat on the House Ways and Means Committee, which determines budgets for federal agencies, he proposed freezing workers’ pay for five years; raising the bar on performance standards; increasing the workload on employees by not backfilling when workers retire, resign or are terminated; and decreasing employee leave time, among other measures. Ryan’s ideas were copied from the right-wing Heritage Foundation’s “Blueprint for Reform.” Jessica Klement, the legislative director for the National Active and Retired Federal Employees Association, refuted the blueprint: “The report starts with the assumption that federal pay and benefits are overly generous, and not in line with the private sector, and therefore need to be decreased. This assumption is wholly inaccurate. Most federal jobs lag behind their private sector counterparts.” The Federal Salary Council says federal employees are underpaid by an average of 35 percent. (fedsmith.com, July 16) Trump, however, plans to increase pay and benefits as well as new hires for the National Border Patrol and Immigration and Customs Enforcement in order to carry out his racist and anti-immigrant plans.)

CHICAGO TRIBUNE
— Donald Trump could end up being a good president – Bloomberg
http://www.chicagotribune.com/news/opinion/commentary/ct-donald-trump-good-president-20161118-story.html
— Welcome to your new job, Mr. Trump! A note from HR – Lara Weber  (DIERSEN: There are about 1.4 million civilian federal employees and virtually all of them are Democrats.  What if Trump decided make the federal government “look like America.”  What if he said that he going to fire about 700,000 federal employees and replace them with Republicans?  I would be more than happy to help him with that.)
http://www.chicagotribune.com/news/opinion/commentary/ct-human-relations-trump-hr-perspec-xxx-20161118-story.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Donald Trump will start his first job as a government employee on Jan. 20. For human resources professionals working with the White House, this must be an “on-boarding” experience like no other. In case none of their existing boilerplate welcome letters fits for this president-elect, I offer an updated version: Mr. Trump: Welcome to the company! We in the Human Resources Department of the United States of America congratulate you on your new job! Your start date is Jan. 20, 2017, and your starting salary will be $400,000 per year as a full-time employee (though we understand that you have opted for the $1/year salary plan; please be sure to complete the appropriate tax forms). Our role as human resources professionals is to help you succeed. You have a big job ahead as president, and we know it might feel overwhelming. We’re here to help you get acclimated and address any concerns you may have regarding your job description: running the free world. We understand you’ve already had a few meetings with your new staff as well as the outgoing executive team. Great. They’re a terrific bunch, with years — in many cases decades — of experience in running the federal government. We reviewed your file and noticed some gaps in work experience. It appears that, aside from a brief internship of sorts with your father, this is your first job as an employee. We can imagine the anxiety you must feel, and so we are making available our full catalog of 6,452 training videos, which you can access from your desktop computer. We highly recommend you watch them all. But because you have never been an actual employee, we thought it important to introduce you to your 314 million or so new supervisors — your bosses. This will be awkward, and we can explain the math further in our first in-person orientation session, but it’s important you know that fewer than half of your new bosses wanted to hire you. More of your new bosses actually wanted to hire another job candidate, but we have a hiring process at this company that dates to its founding more than two centuries ago — and you know how some companies are resistant to change. But we digress … To get you up to speed for your Jan. 20 start date (that’s just about two months, so make time to study!), here is an overview of the people you will be working for. For brevity, we will call them “Americans.” We recognize that you’ve already connected with many Americans who are much like you — the older-than-65, non-Hispanic white males who did not serve in the military and earn far more than the median household income, $53,482. You no doubt will find comfort surrounding yourself with those like-minded Americans, but we encourage you — for the good of the company and for your own professional success! — to get to know your other bosses, as well, including:)

— Your 90-day return policy  Early signs that a new employee is not a good fit – and may need to go – J.T. O’Donnell  (DIERSEN: After I transferred from IRS to GAO in 1980 when I was 31 years old, to see how good a fit I would be, my Democrat GAO superiors, supervisors, coworkers, and subordinates soon asked me many questions to see how strong a Republican I was. When they learned how strong a Republican that I was, they quickly tried to get rid of me, but they learned that because I had transferred to GAO from another federal agency, I was not under any kind or probationary period at GAO. They were furious.)

Other residents who have pulled packets from the city clerk’s office include Roger Frye, Lynn Robbins, Joseph Leone, Robert McNeily, Thomas Dymit, Katherine Patel and Scott Lightbody. More than four candidates would need to file for one of the district seats to cause a primary. “We’ve had it in the past where packets have gone out but they have not been filed,” City Clerk Sharon Barrett-Hagen said. “You never know how Monday is going to go. Not everyone wants to come the first day.”)

AMERICAN THINKER
— The MSM Is Right: There Is a Racist Party in America – Tom Trinko
http://www.americanthinker.com/articles/2016/11/the_msm_is_right_there_is_a_racist_party_in_america.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The mainstream media (MSM) are right.  There is a political party today that has racism as a core value and is working incessantly to keep blacks down.  It’s the Democratic Party.  Of course, since Democrat politicians never say what they really believe, most Democrat voters aren’t aware they’re supporting racism. Like their predecessors who fought a war to keep slavery legal, who founded the KKK, who passed the Jim Crow laws, who fought for school segregation, and who opposed the Civil Rights Act of 1964, modern Democrat politicians are constantly working to ensure that blacks be poor, ignorant, and totally dependent on the government. Slave-owning Democrats believed that blacks were not really smart enough to run their own lives. Modern Democrat talking heads constantly declare that in a country where Japanese Americans could go from Democrat-mandated prison camps to having one of the highest per household incomes in America, without Democrat help, blacks somehow can’t manage to do anything.  It’s the same paternalistic attitude that earlier Democrats used to justify slavery. Of course, the new slavery is different from the old: instead of picking cotton for hours in the blazing sun, modern blacks only have to vote Democrat, settle for unsafe neighborhoods, and be willing to live with the fact that their children will never get a decent education.)

http://www.forbes.com/sites/charleswarner/2016/11/19/trump-to-the-press-youre-fired/#28b3bb013cba
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Lazy is a pretty good way to describe much of the press coverage of Trump. Many of the newspaper, magazine and online news reporters and TV hosts, like Megyn Kelly (a reported $ 9 million a year) are part of the elite, self-absorbed celebrity class. Walk though the newsroom of the New York Times, the  Washington Post, the Wall Street Journal, Time, the New Yorker or The Atlantic and you’ll run into scads of graduates from the top three journalism schools (Missouri, Northwestern and Columbia) and Ivy Leaguers. They are not deplorables.)

What is the attitude of those in your precinct who voted for Clinton toward those in your precinct who voted for Trump?)
http://www.chicagotribune.com/news/columnists/kass/ct-liberal-meltdown-kass-1117-20161116-column.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The liberal Democratic meltdown continues: the whining, the weeping, the blaming of Hillary Clinton, the gnashing of teeth and those heartbreaking, sighing questions about whether life is worth living anymore. And that’s not just in America’s newsrooms, either, but in many other places too. Outside newsrooms, half the country is in political mourning, the other half is still relishing the election. And if they don’t relish the elevation of Donald Trump to the presidency exactly, they’re at least celebrating those videos shared on social media, of precious TV talking heads and pundits laughing hysterically while mocking the “uneducated” and the “deplorables” who didn’t have the wits to deny Hillary her Restoration.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: More than half of Hillary Clinton’s 2.9 million Illinois votes came from Cook County, with most of her remainder drawing from the other highly populated counties. And while President-elect Donald Trump won 91 of the state’s 102 counties, that was not enough to turn Illinois red like its neighbors. The trend of highly populated places voting Democratic and the surrounding, less populated areas voting Republican was a pattern repeated across the country. How deeply did that trend play out in Illinois?)

— VA whistleblower resigns, citing retaliation – AP  (DIERSEN: I blew the whistle on political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, and age discrimination in the federal government.  My Democrat GAO superiors retaliated by forcing me to retire in 1997 when I was 49 years old, by not promoting me beyond GS-13, by keeping me off audits of IRS for all but 3 of the almost 18 years that I worked for GAO, and by forcing me to take an $18,459 pay cut in today’s dollars to transfer from IRS to GAO in 1980.  My Democrat IRS superiors retaliated by not promoting me beyond GS-12, by disallowing my education deductions in 1978, and by disallowing my partial day per diem claims in 1974.  My Democrat Post Office superiors retaliated by forcing me resign in 1969 and by disallowing my sick leave requests.)
http://www.wandtv.com/story/33728027/apnewsbreak-va-whistleblower-resigns-citing-retaliation
(FROM THE ARTICLE: A Department of Veterans Affairs employee who told Congress the agency was using unauthorized wait lists for mental health care in Colorado has resigned, saying he was subjected to retaliation for speaking out. Brian Smothers told The Associated Press Wednesday the VA had opened two separate inquiries into his actions and tried to get him to sign a statement saying he had broken VA rules. He said he refused. Smothers also said the VA reassigned him to an office with no computer access, no significant duties and no social contact. He called the VA’s actions punitive and his working conditions intolerable. He said he resigned as of Tuesday. VA officials had no immediate comment on Smothers’ claim that he was punished for speaking up but said the agency does not tolerate retaliation. They said previously they take any allegation about unauthorized wait lists seriously and were cooperating with an inquiry.)

CHICAGOIST
— Rahm Calls Out Rauner, Trump As Budget Sails Through City Council – STEPHEN GOSSETT
http://chicagoist.com/2016/11/16/trump_rauner_budget.php
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Aldermen introduced a resolution that urged Rauner to defend undocumented immigrants and support Chicago’s sanctuary-city status. Rauner danced around the topic of Trump in the months preceding the election, trying to not embolden Democrats or hurt Republican chances in downstate races where red-leaning voters are more fond of Donald. The governor still seems shy about even speaking the president’s name. According to Tribune City Hall reporter John Byrne, Emanuel received a standing ovation from the City Council after an immigrant-support speech in which the mayor said Trump “uses a stereotype [of Jews] to justify he’s not anti-Semitic.” Emanuel on Sunday evening released a statement confirming that Chicago would stay a sanctuary city for undocumented immigrants, a pronouncement he reaffirmed at a press conference on Monday with several local officials. Emanuel—who, it should be said, accepted $50,000 in donations from Trump in 2010—began to publicly challenge Trump most notably during the honorary street sign kerfuffle.)

http://www.theblaze.com/news/2016/11/16/more-millennials-came-out-to-vote-for-donald-trump-than-expected/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Our pre-election poll of Millennials ages 18-34 had Clinton 49% vs. Trump 28%, a 21-point preference for the Democratic candidate. The National Exit Poll suggests that the actual split in the election was 55% for Clinton to 37% for Trump (an 18-point gap) among youth aged 18-29. Throughout the election season, our analysis has emphasized the demographic and ideological heterogeneity of Millennials, contradicting facile generalizations that characterize them as the “Obama generation.” In particular, there are regularly stark differences in ideology and issue positions among Millennials of different races, genders, and socioeconomic status.)

I should write a book about the aforesaid in Wheaton, in Glen Ellyn, in Milton Township, in DuPage County, and Illinois.)
http://www.theledger.com/opinion/20161117/mccaughey-trump-vs-federal-bureaucracy
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Donald Trump’s triumph over Hillary Clinton presages an even bigger battle against the heart of the Democratic establishment: the federal workforce. This army of bureaucrats – almost 3 million strong – gave Clinton a large majority of their votes and more than 90 percent of their campaign contributions. Count on federal workers and their union bosses to use every trick in the book to block Trump’s reform agenda. Trump’s ability to fix the Department of Veterans Affairs, clean up IRS abuses, rollback job-killing regulations and get taxpayers’ their money’s worth all hinge on uprooting the entrenched civil service. Newt Gingrich, a top Trump adviser, warns that “if you don’t fix this problem, nothing in government is going to work.” That’s a tall order. The bureaucracy generally retains its vise-like grip on the executive branch, as presidents come and go. Public unions are already digging in for a fight. Responding to the election, J. David Cox, President of the American Federation of Government Employees dismissed Trump’s plans as more or less irrelevant. AFGE members have their own big-government agenda, and “that never changes no matter who sits in the White House.” Protection of the status quo at any cost. Even death. Thousands of sick vets died at the VA because of employee self-dealing. Bureaucrats doctored the medical wait lists to earn bonuses while vets languished without care. Despite Congress enacting “reforms” and President Barack Obama appointing a new VA secretary in 2014, the bureaucracy continues to block giving vets access to civilian care. How impossible is it to fire anyone at the VA? A surgeon found guilty of abandoning a patient on the operating table and leaving the medical center still got an $11,000 bonus. Candidate Trump promised to make swift changes at the VA. Exit polls show military families voted for him 2-1 over Clinton. Dan Caldwell of Concerned Veterans for America says he’s encouraged to see civil service reform at the top of Trump’s agenda.)

DAILY HERALD
— The GOP plan to regain the suburbs – Kerry Lester (DIERSEN: Ever-increasingly, Democrats and Democrat plants, Libertarians and Libertarian plants, Greens and Green plants, RINOs, LGBTQ activists, and everyone else who wants to destroy the Illinois Republican Party (IRP) make it clear that they want Rauner to dump Tim Schneider as IRP chairman and replace him with the anti-traditional family and anti-Trump Pat Brady.)
http://www.dailyherald.com/article/20161113/news/161119604/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: With Chicago reliably liberal and conservatism spreading downstate, the suburbs are a fertile and crucial battleground for political parties in Illinois. “If the Republican party is not the party of the suburbs, we will never be the majority party in the state again. We have got to reestablish our leadership in the suburbs,” said Dan Proft, a conservative radio host and former gubernatorial candidate whose Liberty Principles PAC helped finance a number of suburban campaigns. That did not play out on Tuesday, when the suburbs with the exception of McHenry County pulled heavily for Hillary Clinton and the GOP gained just one suburban seat from the Democrats — not surprisingly, the McHenry County spot vacated by retiring Democratic state Rep. Jack Franks of Marengo, who often voted with Republicans on key issues. But it wasn’t always that way. In the 1990s DuPage County was the GOP epicenter as the home of state Senate President James “Pate” Philip and House Speaker Lee Daniels. Illinois Republican Party Chairman Tim Schneider of Bartlett says with population shifting from Chicago out to the suburbs, the GOP’s mission must be to “identify those folks who’ve traditionally voted Democratic and explain why we’d like them to be Republican.” The GOP’s focus needs to be “getting back to basics” and getting people to sign on to the message “Democrats created a lot of the mess that we are in,” said former Illinois GOP Chair Pat Brady of St. Charles, a political strategist.
Republican Gov. Bruce Rauner has jumped in by using his personal wealth to bankroll campaigns against the Democrats and the deep coffers controlled by Democratic House Speaker Michael Madigan. Rauner’s success in the suburbs was not as great as downstate, where Republicans gained three more House seats and two in the Senate. But Democrats maintain a strong majority in the legislature. Rauner’s now said to be focusing on a gubernatorial election in 2018 and redistricting — which is controlled by the majority party — after the 2020 census. “The addition of Rauner and his campaign team are night and day, resource wise and putting together firepower and the ability to know how to win,” Brady said.)

Far too many suburban Republican party leaders hint/imply/argue/shout that they failed/refused to promote Trump because of Trump’s negatives.  But the real reason was that Trump supports many planks in the Republican Party platform that they reject.)
http://www.dailyherald.com/article/20161113/news/161119605/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Standing alone surrounded by a sea of red states, is Illinois suffering from postelection blues? Republican President-elect Donald Trump won Wisconsin, Indiana, Iowa, Missouri and Kentucky Tuesday night while Illinois delivered for Democrat Hillary Clinton. It’s no surprise Chicago and Cook County backed Clinton, who grew up here, but so did all of the suburban counties with the exception of McHenry County. Why did most collar counties, which went for Republican Gov. Bruce Rauner in 2014, buck the Trump wave? Party insiders give several reasons. The Democratic Party of DuPage got a sudden influx of young foot soldiers, like organizer Alex Franklin, who campaigned for charismatic Democrat Bernie Sanders until the Vermont senator conceded to Clinton in July, then went to work for Clinton. Clinton won DuPage County by 14 percentage points on Tuesday. “If you look at the holes right now, even where Democrats lost in DuPage there were absurdly high numbers, which are a direct result of the Sanders people and what we were doing out here,” said Franklin, of Glen Ellyn. He sees the merger of Clinton and Sanders supporters as the beginning of a beautiful friendship that will spill over into spring municipal elections. “We’re not going to walk away,” Franklin said. It wasn’t always that way. The growing diversity of the suburbs and the rise of Barack Obama, Illinois’ former U.S. senator, helped flip the suburban electorate from red to blue in presidential years 2008 and 2012. For decades before that, the suburbs were relentlessly Republican. This year, support for local candidates by minorities down ballot helped Clinton at the top of the ticket, experts said. In Lake County, Grayslake incumbents state Sen. Melinda Bush and state Rep. Sam Yingling had a strategy to connect with Hispanic voters, Democratic former state Sen. Bill Morris of Grayslake said. Using old yearbooks, the Democrats identified likely Hispanic graduates in Avon Township and linked up with them and their families. “What put them over the top in a traditionally Republican district was the help of Hispanic voters,” Morris said. Meanwhile, Democrat Raja Krishnamoorthi of Schaumburg generated a lot of excitement among Indian-Americans as he ran for the 8th Congressional District, DuPage County Democratic Party Chairman Bob Peickert said. Asian voters “came out heavily for Raja and that translated into a lot of support for Hillary,” Peickert said. Republican Joseph Gomez, a tollway board member, said Trump’s controversial remarks about Mexicans likely cost him Hispanic GOP voters. Gomez didn’t back Trump and said, “I don’t see how (the average Hispanic) could support him.” Clinton picked up nearly 1.4 million of her 3 million Illinois votes in the suburbs, with Chicago adding 893,000 more. That urban bloc more than offset Trump winning 91 of Illinois’ 102 counties and gave Clinton Illinois’ 20 electoral votes. Clinton also might have benefitted from the cold shoulder Republican standard-bearers — such as Rauner and U.S. Sen. Mark Kirk — gave Trump, with both refusing to attend his nominating convention in Cleveland. Shunning the New York billionaire might have cost Illinois Republicans down ballot, said Mark Fratella, a Trump delegate and Addison Township GOP organizer. Independent Trump supporters walked into the polling booth and said, “if the governor isn’t embracing our candidate, we’ll vote for Mr. Trump but that’s going to be it. We’re not going to help the party out,” he theorized. Incumbents including Kirk and 10th District U.S. Rep. Bob Dold lost to Democrats, and just one suburban legislative seat — the 63rd House in McHenry County, won by Steven Reick — flipped from Democrat to the GOP. McHenry was the sole collar county that went red for Trump, showing 71,117 votes for him compared to 59,827 for Clinton. “As a Republican, I feel like the state of Illinois is surrounded by the USA,” said McHenry County Board member Andrew Gasser, referring to the electoral college map. “I thought we would have done better for Mr. Trump, but we did what we could. Like Tip O’Neill used to say, ‘all politics are local.'” What put McHenry County in the GOP column was old-fashioned shoe leather, the Algonquin Township Republican Party chairman said. “The Algonquin Township Republican Party had close to 100 volunteers. We nailed everything, we walked everything, we did all we could and it showed,” Gasser said. Still, Illinois voters ended up with two Democratic U.S. senators and one additional Democratic congressman, Brad Schneider of Deerfield. Will its blue leanings cost the state? Morris thinks it won’t hurt federal funding, noting Trump hails from New York City and is not anti-urban. “He and his family are much more urban than the Clintons … he can’t ignore the cities in America and hope to have the country be great again.” Gomez pointed out Chicago’s Democratic Mayor Rahm Emanuel hasn’t endeared himself to Trump, standing up in front of Trump Tower to denounce the billionaire and backing the removal of the city’s Trump Plaza sign. But he said he believes fellow Republicans Rauner and Trump need each other and will likely make amends. “It makes sense that they would be strong allies.” Trump is not as heavy-handed as people think, Fratella said. “The region should not worry about any punitive action from the White House in terms of Illinois.”)

JOURNAL COURIER
— GOP sees tide turn across state  (FROM THE ARTICLE: Trump won 91 of Illinois’ 102 counties, compared with Romney’s 79 in 2012, and Trump also outperformed Romney in almost all those places — in some by double digits.)
http://myjournalcourier.com/news/102437/gop-sees-tide-turn-across-state
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The state where both Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton used to live is still reliably Democratic when it comes to picking a president. But drill a little deeper and it’s clear the political map changed, with more counties flipping from Democrat to Republican just as they did in states like Michigan, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin, helping Donald Trump become president. While Trump won a smaller percentage of the state’s overall vote than Mitt Romney did in 2012 due to dismal support in Chicago and its suburbs, he won a dozen more counties than Romney. Those included large portions of northwest Illinois and one southern county that hadn’t backed the GOP presidential candidate since Richard Nixon’s landslide 1972 victory over George McGovern. On Trump’s coattails, Gov. Bruce Rauner and the GOP eroded a Democratic supermajority in the Illinois House. But with Clinton atop the ticket, fellow Democratic women won statewide offices for U.S. Senate and comptroller. Here’s a look at Tuesday’s results: TRUMP COUNTRY  Illinois has long been divided, with Chicago, its suburbs and some downstate cities voting Democratic and the rest of the state solidly Republican. That split widened this election year. Trump won 91 of Illinois’ 102 counties, compared with Romney’s 79 in 2012, and Trump also outperformed Romney in almost all those places — in some by double digits. Adrienne Logue is a substitute teacher who lives in rural Vermilion County, east of Champaign. Trump won more than 62 percent of the vote there, thanks to people like her. The married mother of three called choosing Trump over Clinton a “no-brainer.” “He was against abortion, he is for my gun rights and the thought of Hillary Clinton appointing a Supreme Court justice that would tip the courts in favor of, it would be an anti-gun majority, it made my decision easy,” Logue said. She liked that Trump stood up to the media and said he’d get rid of the Affordable Care Act. And she’s looking to him to bring back manufacturing jobs, like she believes President Ronald Reagan did in the 1980s. “The ’80s were a great time to be alive,” Logue said. “That’s where the American dream for all people was attainable. I know it could be done again under Trump.”  CLINTON TERRITORY  Clinton dominated in Chicago and the collar counties, including DuPage — a place Obama barely won in 2012 but Rauner took easily in his 2014 defeat of then-Gov. Pat Quinn. Statewide, she received more than 55 percent of the vote. Four in five women chose Clinton over Trump, according to exit polling conducted for The Associated Press and the television networks. Susan Gilbert, a retired teacher from Naperville, said Trump’s comments about women were a factor in her supporting Clinton. The wealthy businessman was caught on a video boasting to a TV show host about groping women and was known to rank women based on their looks. “It feels like we’re going backward,” Gilbert said after Trump’s win, adding that she cried when she watched his victory speech. “We’re going to lose our rights.” BLUE TO RED  The counties that flipped from Democrat to Republican include much of the northwestern part of the state and a few counties in southern Illinois, an area that has been affected by closings and layoffs at coal mines and steel plants. Clinton was haunted on the campaign by remarks she made at a town hall that she was going to put “a lot of coal miners and coal companies out of business,” a comment that came in the context of helping blue-collar workers adjust to new jobs and her plan to provide billions of dollars for training. But the damage stuck. That, along with decreased turnout, may have been enough to flip the tiny Democratic stronghold of Alexander County, its county seat Cairo. Bordering Missouri and Kentucky, the county has voted for just one GOP presidential nominee — Nixon — since 1964. On Tuesday, voters chose Trump, 53 percent to Clinton’s 45 percent.)

Signs read “Unity, not hate,” and organizers called the rally a “march on love.” WBBM’s Bob Roberts reports. But many misgivings were aired at the 45-minute rally. Students spoke about fear of discrimination on the basis of religion, sexual preference and legal status. Openly gay North Central sophomore Tommy Verdala said he does not know what to expect from a Trump administration, especially from Trump’s running mate, Indiana Gov. Mike Pence. Junior Kaitlin Roydal said she has many misgivings but decided she did not have time for fear to become hate. The College Democrats sponsored the rally, but club President Kevin Oyakawa said he and the club have received compliments from campus conservatives for their effort to dial down campus tensions.)

CHICAGO SUN-TIMES
— BEYOND DISGUSTING: Video gambling interests betting on politicians’ backing – BGA  (DIERSEN: Gambling is a vice. If you promote video gambling, you promote vice.  If you promote vice, you should not seek or hold any kind of government or political office as a Republican. Democrats and RINOs promote vice.)
http://chicago.suntimes.com/news/bga-video-gambling-interests-betting-on-politicians-backing/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: In February 2014, eight days before it applied for a liquor license, Illinois’ largest chain of gambling parlors contributed $1,000 to the political fund of Elmwood Park Mayor Angelo “Skip” Saviano. Blackhawk Restaurant Group got the liquor license. It since has given another $2,000 to Saviano, who doubles as the suburb’s liquor commissioner. And it has taken in $622,000 since August 2014 from its video-gambling machines in Elmwood Park. “If people want to participate in the political process, they can, and they will,” Saviano says. “Sometimes, they give. Sometimes, they don’t.” The video gambling industry operates more than 24,000 machines statewide — enough to stock 20 full-service casinos. To continue to grow, it has given more than $1 million in the past eight years to Illinois politicians, election records show. Giving money to politicians “allows us to educate them to make decisions,” says Pete Pontius, director of loss prevention and compliance for video gambling machine owner B&B Amusement. Video gambling in Illinois is big business, with more than $32 billion in bets on the machines generating $784 million in state and local taxes since the machines went live in 2012. The biggest portion of that revenue — about $1.8 billion — is split between the thousands of small establishments where people go to play the games and the 55 companies that own the machines and lease them out. In the Chicago area, video gambling interests have given more than $83,000 since 2012 to mayors, who typically must sign off on liquor licenses because they also serve as liquor commissioner for their communities.)

— See why Trump protesters are wearing safety pins after Donald Trump’s big win – Chris Enloe  (DIERSEN: Should I write a book about those in Wheaton, in Glen Ellyn, in Milton Township, in DuPage County, and in Illinois who focus on marginalizing others?)
http://www.theblaze.com/news/2016/11/12/see-why-trump-protesters-are-wearing-safety-pins-after-donald-trumps-big-win/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Many Americans are wearing safety pins on their shirts following President-elect Donald Trump’s decisive win over Democrat Hillary Clinton earlier this week to show they are a “safe space” for those who feel hurt by Trump’s victory. The pins became a symbol of marginalized people following the Brexit vote earlier this summer, when Great Britain narrowly voted to leave the European Union.)
— ‘An absolute embarrassment’: This Democratic senator lashes out at Harry Reid over Trump comments – Chris Enloe
http://www.theblaze.com/news/2016/11/12/an-absolute-embarrassment-this-democratic-senator-lashes-out-at-harry-reid-over-trump-comments/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Democratic Sen. Joe Manchin (W.Va.) sharply criticized Democratic senatorial leader Sen. Harry Reid (Nev.) late Friday, calling the longtime Democratic leader “an absolute embarrassment to the Senate as an institution, our Democratic party, and the nation.”  Manchin’s comments came in response to Reid releasing a statement on Friday that completely denounced President-elect Donald Trump. In part, Reid labeled Trump a “sexual predator” that “lost the popular vote.”  Machin, who is one of the most conservative Democrats in the Senate, believes Reid’s outright opposition to the will of the people is a disgrace — and that it’s only helping to further divide the nation. “I want to be very clear, he does not speak for me,” Manchin said of Reid, according to a statement. “As difficult as it is for anyone to lose an election, the American people have spoken and Donald Trump is our President-elect. Senator Reid’s words needlessly feed the very divisiveness that is tearing this country apart.” “We are Americans first, not Democrats or Republicans first,” he added. “Unfortunately, there are some who forget that at times like these it is wrong to put party and politics above our country.” Several news publications on Election Day reported that Manchin would begin to caucus with the Republicans in the Senate, but he later denied the reports. Manchin is up for re-election in 2018.)

The Progress Unity Fund is a tax-exempt 501(c)3 organization — the same classification as the Red Cross. The group’s mission is to “provide a progressive alternative to mainstream charities,” according to its IRS filings. The fund provides the financial backing for Act Now To Stop War & End Racism (ANSWER) Coalition, a left-wing activist group that began organizing “emergency protests” immediately after Trump’s election. Cities where ANSWER held protests included: Chicago, New York, DC and San Francisco, among others.)

http://www.nytimes.com/2016/11/12/books/review-megyn-kelly-tells-tales-out-of-fox-news-in-her-memoir-settle-for-more.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Even had there been no news in Megyn Kelly’s new memoir, “Settle for More,” the book would have drawn a considerable audience. Ms. Kelly, the 45-year-old anchor on Fox News, has emerged as this presidential election’s unlikely feminist heroine and Hildy Johnson, the intrepid gal reporter who made herself indispensable to the brass and resisted the herd mentality of the men around her. She was the hen in the Fox house, taking it upon herself to ask at nearly every turn: Shouldn’t we be concerned that the Republican nominee for president is profoundly disrespectful of women in his public discourse? And accused of being a sexual predator at that?  That man, Donald J. Trump, is now America’s president-elect. After reading Ms. Kelly’s book, scheduled to be published on Tuesday but obtained early by The New York Times, I must say I feel nervous for her. According to her book, Mr. Trump did not take kindly to Ms. Kelly’s questions, and he appeared to retaliate in creepy, personal ways. Many journalists are already concerned that he has little regard for their professional responsibilities or First Amendment rights. “Settle for More” won’t allay their fears.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: An engineer and lawyer, Mr. Ditlow collaborated with Mr. Nader on “The Lemon Book” (1980), on “The Lemon Book: Auto Rights” (1990) and on many safety articles. He also wrote about the tendency of some vehicles to roll over, to jump from Park into Reverse gear and to power off with a loss of all controls and airbags while being driven. . .In addition to millions of other recalls in the ’80s and ’90s, Mr. Ditlow and his organization achieved lemon laws in all 50 states to protect consumers.

— To-do lists for an unprepared president-elect – JOE DAVIDSON  (DIERSEN: What do you know about the federal government?  GAO audits the federal government.  I worked for GAO for almost 18 years, the last 11 years of which at the GS-13 Step 1-10 levels, currently $92,632-$120,427.  I worked on audits of federal financial industry regulators for almost 11 of those years, audits of IRS for 3 of those years, and audits of many other federal agencies for almost 6 of those years.)
http://www.miamiherald.com/news/politics-government/article114137548.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Learn from career federal employees: Go beyond the rhetoric and recognize that the federal workforce “has many great and committed people,” as a Trump campaign statement said, is Stier’s advice. Trump should view federal employees, “the real engine of the government,” as “your most important asset,” he added by phone. But Trump would subject agencies to a federal hiring freeze, his first 100-day “Contract With the American Voter” promises. “Job No. 1 is to bring in a qualified and effective team quickly,” Stier said. The transition “begins with people.”)

FORD AUTHORITY
— This 97-Year-Old Swede Drives A Brand-New Ford Mustang GT – AARON BIRCH  (DIERSEN: How old are you? What is your position on age discrimination?  My critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes have always viciously demonized me, viciously denigrated me, and viciously condemned me as being old. This spring, when I was only 67 years old, I bought a new 2016 Ford Mustang.  I bought a new 2013 Dodge Charger R/T Max when I was 63.  I bought a new 2005 Corvette when I was 56.)
http://fordauthority.com/2016/11/this-97-year-old-swede-drives-a-brand-new-ford-mustang-gt-video/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: There is an unwritten rule that those of a certain age retire, hire a geriatric nurse or move into an assisted living facility, and just generally give up on ever having much fun ever again. Lennart Ribring, a 97-year-old man living in Sweden, has opted not to follow protocol, instead buying himself a brand-new Ford Mustang GT with a manual transmission and cramming as much driving fun as he can manage into whatever time he has left. According to Road & Track, Mr. Ribring is the oldest Ford Mustang owner alive, and regardless of whether or not that’s true, he’s inarguably just about the coolest. Surprisingly, this is not Lennart Ribring’s first Ford Mustang; he bought a first-generation example way back in the 1960s, and he’s “hardly thought about another car since then.” The above video from Ford Sweden was put together to tell Ribring’s unique story to the world, and in the process, it demonstrates that a passion for driving knows no bounds – not age, nationality, gender, religion, or race. Way to do Ford fans everywhere proud, Mr. Ribring.)
