DAILY LINE
— Republicans vent frustrations after loss, and find no clear path forward – Hannah Meisel (DIERSEN: Illinois Republicans anxiously await the Illinois Republican Party (IRP) to publish a report on its December 1, 2018 State Central Committee (SCC) meeting in Bolingbrook. The meeting included reports by IRP Chairman Tim Schneider, IRP National Committeeman Richard Porter, and IRP National Committeewoman Demetra Demonte. IRP SCC members are listed at: https://illinois.gop/who-we-are/officials/. Meeting attendees included Carol Davis, Marianne DeMeritt, Jim Dodge, Diane Evertsen, Jason Helland, Babette Holder, Jeanne Ives, James Marter, Jan Shaw, Ken Shepro, and Allen Skillicorn.)
http://thedailyline.net/chicago/12/03/2018/republicans-vent-frustrations-after-loss-and-find-no-clear-path-forward/
(THE FREE PART OF THE ARTICLE: The grounds of the Bolingbrook Golf Club melted from white with five-day-old snow back to its former green as day wore on Saturday during the Illinois Republican Party State Central Committeeman meeting, as those inside the Taylor ballroom pondered what went wrong for their party on Nov. 6. FROM THE ARTICLE PER CAPITOL FAX: The main takeaway from the presentation was that Republicans actually did quite well bringing out their own voters. The problem for the GOP, the presenters said, was that the Democrats did much better. Precisely 912,979 more Illinoisans voted on Nov. 6 than did when Rauner was first elected in 2014, the presenters said. Rauner only lost 61,232 votes compared with his vote total in 2014, but Pritzker gained 794,763 more votes than Gov. Pat Quinn received in 2014. It’s this gap, the presenters said, that the GOP should focus on.)

— As expected, Ives joins call for ILGOP shakeup (DIERSEN: Illinois Republicans anxiously await the Illinois Republican Party (IRP) to publish a report on its December 1, 2018 State Central Committee (SCC) meeting in Bolingbrook.

https://capitolfax.com/2018/12/03/as-expected-ives-joins-call-for-ilgop-shakeup/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Let’s circle back to Hannah Meisel’s report this morning…“We no longer have a governor to lead us, so it’s up to us and it’s up to me to lead this party forward,” [Illinois Republican Party Chairman Tim Schneider] said. “You’re never going to have to fire me. Because if I can’t do this job, I’m going to quit. But I’m not going to quit because we can win and we can achieve victory and we can do great things as an Illinois Republican Party.” It was about then that outgoing State Rep. Jeanne Ives (R-Wheaton), who narrowly lost to incumbent Gov. Bruce Rauner in the March primary running far to the right of the governor, picked up her belongings and exited the room. “I’ve got better things to do with my time to listen to that,” Ives told The Daily Line when asked why she was leaving the meeting only an hour in. * From the Illinois Conservative Union…Almost one month has passed since the November 6th midterm elections. Many have analyzed the losses suffered by the Republican Party in Illinois. To the base of the Party – Conservatives who stand firmly on the adopted Republican Party platform – the causes are abundantly clear. Party leadership made no attempt to unify the Party, failed to support good candidates and failed to effectively communicate to voters the principles of the Republican Party. Due to this failure of leadership and lack of accepting any responsibility for the losses, Illinois Conservative Union (ICU) calls for Tim Schneider to step down from his position as Chairman. “It’s obvious that some of those in Party leadership are out-of-touch with mainstream grassroots Republicans. The grassroots want leadership to support the Party platform; support candidates approved by the Party base—not those hand-picked by leadership; support and defend the Constitution of the United States and support the policies of the President”, said Babette Holder-Youngberg, Communications Director for ICU. “They [IL GOP leadership] need to know we will work with them and be a force multiplier or we will work around them, but we are the workers in the Party, from every corner of the state,” said Jeanne Ives, Senior Fellow, ICU. The group was founded by the West Suburban Patriots. It has no active political action committee, but it does have a Facebook page with 420 “likes” and several conspiracy theories.)

— Rep. Rodney Davis tours hometown after tornado strikes (DIERSEN: Government is nasty. Politics is nasty. What is your hometown? My hometown is Crete. I lived there 1948-1972. My brother continues to live there in a home that our grandfather, who fought the Germans in WWI, had built in 1926 on land that his grandfather bought in 1864 after he had homesteaded a farm in Crete in 1854. He had immigrated from what is now Germany in 1844 and worked in a brick factory in Chicago. I get defensive when my anti-German American anti-Lutheran critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes demonize, denigrate, and condemn Crete as always having been full of German-American Lutherans who are White supremacists, Nazis, KKK members, haters, racists, sexists, bigots, and even worse things.)

Of course, needless-to-say, my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes have always used that against me.

In my precinct, only 21 voted for Trump in the 2016 Republican primary and only 137 voted for Trump in the 2016 general election.

(FROM THE ARTICLE: The vision of President Roosevelt, and of some recent proponents, is for the government to act as the employer of last resort. Teaching, child care, after-school programs, health care, elderly care and construction are among the types of jobs mentioned. More recent versions would have nonprofit groups and state and local governments act as the employers, with the federal government playing a secondary role as a provider of training. The basic idea is that every citizen would have a job at a decent-enough wage to cover housing, transportation and food. Booker’s legislation would create federally funded pilot programs in up to 15 communities. Most proposals would also provide benefits such as health care and sick leave.)

— George H.W. Bush Modeled the Kinder, Gentler and More Colorful GOP That Could Have Been The 41st president’s own family gave him reason to work toward a more inclusive and diverse Republican Party. – Keli Goff (DIERSEN: My Democrat GAO superiors took Bush’s 1991 Civil Rights Act as being a directive to get rid of once and for all their employees who were Republican, White, male, and/or non-veteran who they 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.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: But more than one GOP source has told me over the years that while President Bush wasn’t a cheerleader for liberal affirmative action policies, you could call him a pioneer of what is now called “The Rooney Rule.” Named after Dan Rooney, the late owner of the Pittsburgh Steelers, the rule calls for the NFL to interview qualified minority candidates for coaching openings. Due to its effectiveness, the rule has formally and informally been adopted across other industries. Bush was known to be conscientious of asking for qualified minority candidates to be included for consideration to fill major roles. This was allegedly one of the ways Colin Powell went from unlikely candidate, to the first black chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: There has not been this much attention for a federal job guarantee since 1978, when the Humphrey-Hawkins Full Employment Act limped across the legislative finishing line. Amid tremendous lobbying from business organizations, the bill lost its key proposal to make the federal government the employer of last resort when private employers were not up to the task.)

In the latest gubernatorial race in Illinois, how many times did we hear Bruce Rauner had $500 million at his command, and J.B. Pritzker was worth three times that? (And it would appear Rauner still couldn’t afford a tie at times.) The ads were without end, costing each candidate millions of dollars. An average person seeking such office could not ever compete. So, wealth is the answer. Sad.)

— Wheaton College students claim black pro-lifer’s talk made people of color feel ‘unsafe’ – Dorothy Cummings McLean
https://www.lifesitenews.com/news/christian-college-students-claim-black-pro-lifers-talk-made-people-of-color
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Three student officials at a Christian college have alleged that an African-American speaker made other people of color feel “unheard, underrepresented, and unsafe” with his pro-life talk. Ryan Bomberger of the Radiance Foundation gave a presentation entitled “Black Lives Matter In and Out of the Womb” at the evangelical Wheaton College on November 14. He was the guest of the Wheaton College Republicans. Bomberger’s talk touched on the “hypocrisy” of the BLM leadership in announcing its solidarity with Planned Parenthood, the “leading killer of black lives.” In response to Bomberger’s interactive talk, Lauren Rowley, Wheaton’s student body president, Tyler Waaler, the student body vice-president, and Sammy Shields, the “EVP” of the college’s Community Diversity, signed an email directed to the entire college claiming that Bomberger’s talk distressed “many” people of color. “As many of you know, a special interest club hosted an event on Wednesday night titled, ‘Black Lives Matter: In and Outside the Womb.’ The speaker of this event, Ryan Bomberger, made several comments at the event that deeply troubled members of our community. His comments, surrounding the topic of race, made many students, staff, and faculty of color feel unheard, underrepresented, and unsafe on our campus,” they wrote. Without supplying any examples, Rowley, Waaler, and Shields called Bomberger’s opinions “offensive rhetoric” and suggested that they “compromised” the college’s mission. “As Student Government, we are committed to the College’s mission to promoting student programming that ‘pursues unity, embraces ethnic diversity, and practices racial reconciliation so that it will contribute to the education of whole persons,’ and therefore, felt it necessary to respond to the offensive rhetoric from the speaker at this event that compromised this mission,” they stated. Bomberger, who is a biracial African American conceived in rape and then raised in a mixed-race family, responded indignantly to the allegations, saying that Rowley, Waaler, and Shields had demonized him. He said also that many students had told him that out of the three, only Shields had attended his talk. “I would think it would be against the college’s mission to intentionally mislead students,” Bomberger wrote in response to the student leaders’ backlash against him. He noted that the student leaders had not provided any evidence for what they allege. “As typical with ‘progressivism’ one only needs to make the claim of offense without allowing people to examine the alleged ‘offense.’ The Dean of Student Engagement, Steve Ivester…praised me for the way in which I approached such heavy issues. But it seems that only some people’s opinions matter,” Bomberger wrote.)

 

NEW YORK TIMES
— NOVEMBER 22, 1991 FLASHBACK: Reaffirming Commitment, Bush Signs Rights Bill – ANDREW ROSENTHAL (DIERSEN: Of course, my Democrat GAO superiors took this as a directive to get rid of once and for all their employees who were Republican, White, male, and/or non-veteran who they 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.nytimes.com/1991/11/22/us/reaffirming-commitment-bush-signs-rights-bill.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: President Bush today signed the 1991 Civil Rights Act, hoping to end a bruising two-year fight over job discrimination, but instead found himself embroiled in a political furor over an effort within the Administration to put a conservative interpretation on the new law. Facing protests from civil rights leaders, lawmakers from both parties and members of his Cabinet, Mr. Bush this morning moved to end the uproar caused when the White House Counsel, C. Boyden Gray, circulated a draft of a directive Wednesday night that would have ended the use of racial preferences and quotas in Federal Government hiring. That draft gave rise to reports that the President would order all Federal agencies today to phase out the use of racial preferences and quotas in hiring to underscore his opposition to affirmative action. Some political opponents and those who have voiced doubt about his commitment to civil rights suggested that Mr. Bush was trying to undo by executive action what he could not achieve in his fight with Congress over the wording in the Civil Rights Act. Disputes Flare Anew Moving quickly to try to dispel that impression, Mr. Bush this morning had his press secretary, Marlin Fitzwater, say that Mr. Gray had acted without his knowledge, and the White House called civil rights leaders who had been invited to the signing ceremony to assure them that the affirmative action regulations dating from 1965 were not being wiped out. Still, some of his critics raised doubts about whether Mr. Bush really intended to abandon Mr. Gray’s effort. And late in the day, controversy erupted again over another aspect of the formal signing statement that was made public after Mr. Bush signed the bill at a ceremony in the Rose Garden. Republican and Democratic lawmakers alike criticized a passage in the statement in which Mr. Bush endorsed a hotly debated interpretation of certain provisions of the new anti-discrimination law that gives employers the broadest discretion in citing “business necessity” to defend policies that exclude blacks, women and other minority groups from hiring. In his speech, which amounted to a highly unusual repudiation of a close aide and followed a chaotic overnight review of the proposed changes in Federal hiring practices, the President cast aside Mr. Gray’s language on affirmative action.)

That will not be true for me. Since 1997, when I was 49 years old, when my Democrat GAO superiors succeeded in forcing me to take their early retirement “offer,” I have spent far less on immediate pleasures and on other discretional items. My retirement income is only 43% of what my salary was in 1997 in today’s dollars. While you can cut/eliminate spending on immediate pleasures and on other discretionary items like I have done big time, you will still face ever-increasing non-discretionary expenses including taxes, medical, food, and housing.)

AMERICAN GREATNESS
— Limousine Liberalism Goes Mainstream – Scott Yenor and Jackson Yenor (DIERSEN: What percent of the voters in your neighborhood, in your precinct, in your municipality, in your township/ward, in your county, in Illinois, and in America are limousine liberals?)
https://www.amgreatness.com/2018/11/30/limousine-liberalism-goes-mainstream/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The new suburban problem defies the old logic of American politics, where we learned to expect the upwardly mobile to favor the lower taxes, limited government, and local control offered by the Republicans. Instead, the “suburban problem” appears to be limousine liberalism gone mainstream. In the 1970s, limousine liberals forced busing while sending their own kids to tony private schools. They willingly paid high taxes that crippled small business, among other things. Today’s limousine liberals have different policies, but signal their membership with similar hypocrisies. They define themselves by “values” more than by wealth, though they are mostly well off or, at least, better off than most. They bemoan the racism and other phobias in America while pricing the middle class and minorities out of their school districts; they drive SUVs; heat and air condition large mansions while worrying about global warming; they favor amnesty and open borders, benefit from its cheap labor, yet defer the costs elsewhere; they live family life in a pretty traditional way, but they are happy to embrace policies and mores that unwind the family for the less fortunate. Despite high levels of church attendance for themselves and their neighborhood friends, they worry that faithful Christians are sources of misogyny, homophobia, and patriarchal power, and they vote to undermine the role of faith in politics accordingly.)

ILLINOIS REVIEW
— BRINKMAN: THE RISE AND DECLINE OF ILLINOIS’ ONCE-DEPENDABLE DUPAGE REPUBLICAN PARTY
https://www.illinoisreview.com/illinoisreview/2018/11/the-rise-and-decline-of-the-dupage-republican-party.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: When James “Pate” Philip left as DuPage party chair in 2003 he left it with half a million dollars. Without their long time leader the DuPage GOP quickly fragmented into the nine individual township organizations who learned to fend for themselves. The money quickly dwindled and was never replenished. Neither were these organizations created equal in their ability or resources to fend for themselves. The lasting coup of the 2010 redistricting map is that it took those districts that followed GOP organizational lines and smashed them up. Local Republican organizations long used to having one representative and one senator now suddenly had five or six in some cases. To be required to focus on too much is to focus on nothing at all. This has undone local efforts to bolster candidates. Tea Parties admirably tried to pick up some of this slack as have larger more well-heeled groups like that of Dan Proft. Tactical victories partially explain the decline, but not the broader trends. While the township organizations helped slow the decline they were not the essential force in DuPage’s rise to preeminence. How then was the county so effective at its peak? Was it all just demographics as some would argue, or purely leadership? Surely both played a role, however one feature absent over the decline of the DuPage party was its massive and systematic outreach during its peak. The county GOP sent a quarterly newsletter to each and every voter. A substantial portion of what was raised every year and at massive events (like the one where Nancy Louise met Pate) went to their distribution. These efforts helped to educate all voters and especially newer ones to see why conservative governance was essential first at the local level, then at the state level. Before they knew it, they had become reliable Republican voters!)

https://capitolfax.com/2018/11/30/the-governor-talks-about-the-election-and-the-future-of-the-ilgop/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Though he criticized Democrats, Rauner also said his own party needs to take a look at itself post-election. When asked who should lead the Illinois Republican Party, Rauner did not give a direct answer. “Well, we have a chairman, Tim Schneider and a co-chairman,” Rauner said, referring to the newly ousted Cook County Commissioner, whom he handpicked to lead the party, and conservative Lake County GOP Chairman Mark Shaw, who led a quasi-coup of the party leadership in May. “We have some wonderful elected officials who are Republicans,” the governor continued. “We have major donors and funders who are proud Republicans and I think it’s going to be an appropriate process for the Republican party to do some reflection and some discussion about where we go as a party and where we go as a state and lay out a vision for the future. Clearly, changes are needed. Clearly, improvements are needed.”)

https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/news/white-house/federal-workers-warned-advocating-trump-impeachment-not-allowed-until-second-term

(FROM THE ARTICLE: The memo was highlighted by the group American Oversight, which is calling on the OSC to rescind the guidance. “With the Trump administration already corruptly trying to root out the ‘deep state,’ the OSC should not empower Trump appointees to target people who ‘resist’ administration policies like family separation,” the advocacy group said in a statement.)

— The Religion of Leftism – Allie Stuckey
https://townhall.com/columnists/alliestuckey/2018/11/30/the-religion-of-leftism-n2536798
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Over the last decade, America has moved drastically to the left. Not only are more people on the left than ever before, the left is further left than it’s ever been. This radical brand of progressivism has come to be known as “leftism”—an extreme yet increasingly dominant segment of the political spectrum. At the same time, America has grown more secular. According to Pew, “religious nones” are rapidly growing in number. These “nones” are most concentrated among millennials: 36% of millennials are religiously unaffiliated. Millennials happen to also be America’s most politically progressive generation. This probably isn’t a coincidence, especially since the same trends have occurred in a similar way in other parts of the world, such as Europe. While correlation doesn’t prove causation, politics and religion are so closely related that it’s hard to believe the simultaneous popularization of extreme leftism and secularism is insignificant.)

This agreement is evidence that Republicans haven’t learned from their recent election losses.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: One agency that gained particular attention was the Environmental Protection Agency since it was the target of numerous budget cuts by the Trump administration.

The blowup coincided with the agency’s rollout of new ethics procedures prepared in response to concerns about potential favoritism regarding contracts and hiring. “The tollway is a well-run, transparent organization, but we can always look for better ways and better practices,” Chairman Robert Schillerstrom said. However, Director Joseph Gomez criticized the ethics report for failing to address “what might be considered political firings.” Gomez said high-ranking managers in communications and human resources were terminated this year and told “the toll road was headed in a different direction.” “I don’t find that a good reason to fire senior members of the toll road staff,” Gomez said. “What was the ‘new direction’ at the tollway?” Gorman told Gomez, “If you’re inferring that I’m a woman and can’t handle it, I don’t appreciate it and that’s not the case.” “I don’t believe in firing people. They fire themselves,” she said. And when one department head left this spring, “I believe the building was in (unison) in singing, ‘Ding, dong, the witch is dead,'” Gorman said. At that point, Senior Assistant Attorney General Robert Lane admonished Gorman and board members that personnel discussions should occur in executive session. “I am so sorry you would think that anybody is disparaging you because of being a female,” Gomez told Gorman. “There are no political firings,” Schillerstrom clarified, adding personnel issues are handled by tollway executives, not board members.)

REAL CLEAR POLITICS
— The Perfidy of Illinois’ Public Payrolls – Steve Cortes (DIERSEN: I worked part-time for the Park Forest Post Office 1966-1969.)
https://www.realclearpolitics.com/articles/2018/11/26/the_perfidy_of_illinois_public_payrolls_138742.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: I grew up in Park Forest, Ill., a working-class suburb of Chicago. In my youth, Park Forest was pleasantly middle-class — a solid community of well-kept lawns, strong churches, and active sports. Unfortunately for my hometown, times have been tough over the years, reflected by a jobless rate about twice the national one and a poverty rate 43 percent higher than the state of Illinois average. As a consequence, Park Forest has lost almost a third of its peak population of 30,000 since the 1970s. But like many such struggling communities, one class of people has found a way to prosper: public employees. Recently, Fox affiliate Channel 32 and Open the Books detailed the exorbitant pay package for part-time interim school Superintendent Joyce Carmine. She retired in 2017 making $398,000 annually, the highest-paid superintendent in Illinois, in a community where the median household income is $44,000. She will receive, courtesy of taxpayers, a pension of just under $300,000 for the rest of her life. Adding insult to injury, the school district hired this retiree back as a consultant at the rate of $1,200 per day for a total of 100 days, bringing her pay this year to $419,000 total for part-time work. Given the modest $75,000 median home price in Park Forest, her salary equates to 5.5 home purchases…per year.)

— Champaign County Republicans working on 2020 vision – Debra Pressey
http://www.news-gazette.com/news/local/2018-11-25/champaign-county-republicans-working-2020-vision.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Less than three weeks after a brutal election outcome for Champaign County Republicans, they’re looking down the road at the next big challenge. That is: How to avoid another blue sweep of countywide offices in 2020. Six Champaign County-wide offices will be up for election when Americans choose their next president — county coroner, county recorder, circuit clerk, state’s attorney, circuit judge and county auditor. Democrat George Danos won the auditor’s office in the Nov. 6 election for a two-year unexpired term — which places the office back in play in 2020. And Circuit Judge Jason Bohm said he’ll be running as a Republican in his first election after being appointed to the bench earlier this year. Three other countywide offices up for election are currently held by Republicans — Circuit Clerk Katie Blakeman, Coroner Duane Northrup and Recorder Mark Shelden — and all three said they plan to run again in 2020. . .He sees three issues for his party to address. One is acknowledging it wasn’t a single problem — such as voter dissatisfaction with President Donald Trump — but multiple problems in the last election, “and we have to identify what those problems are and mitigate the ones we can’t get rid of,” he said. . .The Trump factor Republican county board member Jon Rector is also in a seat up for election in 2020. In 2016, he won by just 38 votes, “and two years from now, with what’s happening at the top of the ticket with the Republicans, it’ll be a challenge,” he said. . .Given his promise to always vote his conscience first and his party second on the county board, Rector said he found it disappointing that many voters didn’t do their homework. “These students on campus are so bright, and all they went by — they were told that Donald Trump is horrible and don’t vote for any local ‘R,'” he said. “I applaud them for voting, but they need to do their homework.” A particular challenge for Republicans at the local level, Shelden said, is that the average students who live outside the area but vote in Champaign County naturally gravitate toward national politics. “For the Republican Party, we absolutely need to have a better message for younger voters,” he said. Republican John Farney, who will be handing over the county treasurer’s office to Democratic opponent Laurel Prussing next month, said he ran his most grassroots campaign ever in the recent election — but work done by him and fellow GOP candidates couldn’t trump voter dissatisfaction with Washington. Some of the feedback he has gotten post-election is that he didn’t do enough to position himself as anti-Trump, Farney said, though he doesn’t see that making a difference. “A certain segment of the voting population sees Republican and thinks Trump, especially folks who are not tied into local issues,” he said. Despite the outcome, Farney said he still regards the campaign as having been a great experience — though he doubts he’ll ever run for office again. “I have a sense of relief that has come over me,” he said. “There are a lot of issues facing county government, and, quite honestly, the keys to the castle have been handed over to the local Democrats, and they’re going to have a lot of decisions to make over the next few years. And I wish them the best of luck.”)

WASHINGTON TIMES
— Trump and the ongoing culture war – Robert Knight
https://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2018/nov/25/trump-and-the-ongoing-culture-war/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Since November 2016, the media and the progressive left have been pounding the same two claims. The first is that Donald Trump was not really elected, since Hillary Clinton got more popular votes. The second is that anyone who voted for Mr. Trump or supports him today is a white male supremacist bigot. And probably homophobic and xenophobic to boot. Regardless of actual race or sex. Regarding the first claim, Hillary’s national margin of 2.8 million votes can be explained entirely by California, which has become a one-party, socialist state with enormous potential for vote fraud. Mrs. Clinton collected 4.3 million more votes in the Golden State than Mr. Trump, and, as Investor’s Business Daily noted after the final count, “If you take California out of the popular vote equation, then Trump wins the rest of the country by 1.4 million votes. And if California voted like every other Democratic state — where Clinton averaged 53.5 percent wins — Clinton and Trump end up in a virtual popular vote tie.” There weren’t even any Republicans on the ballot in the U.S. Senate race, and no Republicans were running for House seats in nine of California’s 53 congressional districts, of which 45 now are represented by Democrats.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: So why should we be glad for this mediocre performance? Because the Democrats dominate education, the media and Hollywood (they also dominate the legal system, but that’s another story for another day). And aging hippy Baby Boomers have raised the latest generation of adults, the Millennials. We should have done worse. The Democrats spent years brainwashing our children in the public schools and universities. K-12 and college youth are now taught that Republican ideals are racist, sexist, homophobic — so wrong that they must be censored out of society. Those who disagree with this groupthink are punished. It takes guts to stand up and be a pariah among your fellow students and risk getting a bad grade from your teachers. Democrats constitute 41 percent of K-12 teachers. Only 27 percent are Republicans. Half voted for Hillary Clinton in the 2016 presidential election, in contrast to 29 percent for Donald Trump. The school administration forces liberal curriculum on the teachers, which counters any conservatism they may have. Democratic professors in college outnumber Republicans even worse, 10 to 1. The Harvard University faculty backs Democrats 96 percent of the time. One of the few faculty members there who is not a Democrat was too afraid to comment about it. “Sorry, but the smart thing for me to do about this kind of issue is not to comment!” he said when asked for a comment by Fox News. The Democrats control most of the media, constantly spinning the news to make Republicans look mean and Democrats look like saints. More than 96 percent of donations from media figures to either of the two major-party presidential candidates went to Hillary Clinton. The three major TV broadcast networks have the most hostile coverage of a president in TV news history — 92 percent. Only eight percent of the coverage of Trump is positive. Hollywood movies do the same thing. I just watched “The First Purge,” which is a classic example of this bias. It features a party in power known as “The New Founding Fathers of America.” This administration starts a “purge,” where for one day a year, crime is legal and people are free to go around murdering other people and committing any crime they want. The NRA supports the purge. The administration justifies it with the need for population control of poor people. It’s the same old tired Hollywood plot to portray Republicans as evil and Democrats as righteous moral crusaders. Beautiful minorities comprise the opposition fighting back against this oppressive regime. Republicans are always portrayed as old white men and Democrats as that attractive person you’d like to be friends with. Teenage minds are more impressionable than adults; what are they going to think of the mostly white (translate: racist) party that wants to murder poor people? None of the stereotypes are accurate, it’s become pretty well-known lately that Democrats were the party of racism, and there are plenty of minorities in the Republican Party who don’t buy into the Democrats’ lies. Millennials reached voting age after the worst of this indoctrination and consequently vote more Democratic than previous generations. This was also due to the influence of their left-leaning Baby Boomer parents. NPR exit polls from the midterm elections reported that two-thirds of people age 18-29 voted Democrat, which is a major bump from previous midterms. They also turned out in bigger numbers than they did in the last midterms. Young-adult turnout surged by 188 percent in early voting compared with 2014. One quarter of all voters now are Millennials. I’ve said for years during Barack Obama’s presidency that Republicans would need a celebrity in order to take back the White House due to the amount of indoctrination — and sure enough, along came Donald Trump. Trump was a Democrat for much of his adult life, and palled around with the top Hollywood elites. He was able to attract a portion of the population that is wowed by celebrities. He may not reflect conservative values perfectly due to his background, but to the left’s dismay, he is getting a lot accomplished for Republicans. And he is making significant inroads against the left’s dominance of the media by tweeting directly to the American people every day. Fortunately, there are signs things may be changing. The #WalkAway and BLEXIT movements are composed of minorities leaving the Democrat Party and exposing its deception. As technology continues to evolve, there are new areas of influence online opening up to influence the younger generations, bypassing education, the media, Hollywood and their parents. And the children of Gen X are now becoming adults, who are more conservative than the Millennials. There is some hope we haven’t lost it all.)

CBS NEWS
— Caravan confirms what Trump has been saying for weeks – Michael Graham
https://www.cbsnews.com/news/commentary-caravan-confirms-what-trump-has-been-saying-for-weeks/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: On Sunday, hundreds of would-be illegal immigrants gathered at the U.S. border to make a massive contribution to the Trump 2020 re-election campaign. They chanted that they weren’t bound by the idea of borders and laws (“We are not criminals! We are international workers!”). They hurled rocks at U.S. Border Patrol agents. They rushed the border itself, cutting holes in fencing and climbing walls. They forced authorities to use tear gas to protect themselves and turn back the mob. The San Ysidro Port of Entry was forced to close for more than five hours. In other words, they confirmed what President Trump has been saying for weeks about the caravan and what it represents. And, like clockwork, the president’s progressive opponents have been answering his extreme rhetoric with their own. The video of crowds of caravan participants pushing their way through border fencing or throwing rocks at uniformed Americans is disturbing. Even more disturbing is the fact that the caravan’s participants and organizers (like the subtly-named group “People Without Borders”) have been telegraphing their plans for weeks. Weeks ago, while media outlets criticized President Trump over the caravan issue and insisting that it posed no threat, actual participants were looking into TV cameras and announcing their intention to cross the U.S. border — no matter what. And now they’ve tried to do just that. The situation is so bad that Mexico’s interior department announced Sunday it will deport around 500 migrants because they ignored Mexican authorities and tried to cross the border “violently” and illegally.” Does it now seem so ludicrous to put a few thousand American soldiers at that border? The American Left still thinks so.)

WALL STREET JOURNAL
— Conservatism Isn’t Dead Yet The great contradiction is between what liberals claim to believe and the way they live their own lives. – Bobby Jinda
https://www.wsj.com/articles/conservatism-isnt-dead-yet-1543176293
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Liberals rail against supposedly rampant structural inequalities, and cite disparate impacts as proof of inherent racism and sexism. Women and minorities are broadly disadvantaged, according to this perspective, due to the evils of “white privilege.” Structural bias counts more than individual effort, so that neither success nor failure is truly earned. . .Liberals embrace multiculturalism, claiming all cultures are at least morally and practically equivalent, while they also denigrate Western culture as intrinsically tied to a history of slavery and colonialism. College campuses are filled with students and professors arguing that America is the greatest threat to world peace and development. Yet despite the West’s imperfections, modern liberal democracy still offers the best governing system on earth to promote freedom and human dignity. Few women would willingly trade its equality for the female genital mutilations, child marriage, sex-selective abortions and other gender-based injustices found in other societies. Even a Churchillian acknowledgment from the left that American culture is the least-bad choice would be progress. Liberals have championed the sexual revolution to overturn traditional mores around ethics and marriage, and to promote freedom from restraint as the ultimate sexual—though not economic—good. Pursuing pleasure and abandoning restraint make for popular bumper stickers, song lyrics and movie plots. Yet the benefits of monogamy and fidelity, for both adults and the children they bring into the world, have been demonstrated repeatedly. Marriage and intact families are correlated with higher incomes, stronger economic growth, upward mobility, higher workforce-participation rates, decreased child poverty and lower dropout rates. Indeed, marriage is most common and more enduring among affluent, educated Americans. Liberal elites would rather folks do as they say, rather than as they do.)

How much money in the form of increased taxes are anti-Trumps in the aforesaid going to make you pay to give illegals “free stuff?”)
http://www.bostonherald.com/news/columnists/howie_carr/2018/11/howie_carr_asylum_caravans_future_democrats_dream_of_life_in_land
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Thanksgiving’s over, so now it’s back to covering the ongoing invasion — I mean, the asylum caravan — on the southern border of the United States. Invasion — that’s how the lawless mobs seeking the eternal gravy train are described by both the president of the U.S. and the mayor of Tijuana, where the hordes are currently getting drunk and creating their own local crime wave while massing for the upcoming big crossing. It’ll be like the 49ers, or the Sooners, only this mob won’t be looking for gold or land. They’ll be sprinting toward the welfare offices of the gringos. Everything free in America! Proudly waving the flags of the hellhole countries that they claim “persecuted” them, the vast majority of these invaders will end up on the dole, voting Democrat to protect their handouts, just like the tens of millions who preceded them to the Land of the Free (Stuff). We are told the “Dreamers” are the best of the illegal immigrants. Yet according to a Harvard researcher, even 74 percent of them are indigent wards of the state. Where do the working classes of America go to get “asylum” from the millions of foreign criminals swarming across the border? Speaking of asylum, there’s interesting local news this week about some infamous “asylum” seekers, i.e., welfare recipients. Remember the Tsarnaev brothers, Muslim mass murderers from the Third World? These terrorists came here for “asylum,” lived in Section 8 housing, flaunted their EBT cards, gamed college scholarships and MassHealth benefits and finally expressed their gratitude by murdering their American benefactors. Now the lawyers for the younger Tsarnaev fiend have filed briefs reiterating what we already knew — that the older brother, Tamerlan “Speedbump” Tsarnaev, celebrated the 10th anniversary of 9/11 back in 2011 by slitting the throats of three Americans in Waltham — Jewish Americans. “Committing jihad,” as one of the other terrorists is quoted as saying in the court filing. Of course, not all invaders participating in the “fundamental transformation” of America want to commit jihad. Some just want to commit crimes, because they know nothing will happen to them when they do. Consider Luis Rodrigo Perez, a Dreamer, age 23, illegal immigrant from Mexico. His dream was to murder Americans, and this month he has succeeded beyond his wildest dreams, thanks to the fact that New Jersey refused to hold him on an ICE detainer when he was jailed on domestic violence charges. Not only did New Jersey Democrats not honor the feds’ detainer, they didn’t even tell ICE when they cut him loose. Days later, the career criminal was in Springfield, Mo., accused of murdering three Americans. Two were heard begging for their lives. He allegedly wounded two others before finally being collared. Last week a video went viral of a Mexican illegal immigrant in Arkansas shooting at cops. Luis Cabos-Cenabio had two previous arrests during the Obama years, but the Democrats decided he should remain in the country, on welfare. America wasn’t always like this. Once we were a sovereign nation. We had borders, and everyone had to obey the law, not just taxpayers, citizens and legal immigrants. But something happened. Fifty-five years ago today, John F. Kennedy was buried. With JFK’s murder, something happened to the American psyche, at least the Democrats’ psyche. Eighteen months later, at the behest of Ted Kennedy, the Democrats passed the Immigration Reform Act of 1965. The floodgates opened, and the slaughter began. Now the Democrats demand ever more of what’s destroying this country — illegal immigration. Lee Harvey Oswald, or whoever killed JFK, has a lot to answer for.)
