USA TODAY
— HARDCOPY ARTICLE TITLE: Ancestry ethnicity tests getting more precise – Elizabeth Weise (DIERSEN: What is your national origin? During the 1840s and 1850s, all my ancestors immigrated to northeast Illinois from what is now Germany. Of course, needless-to-say, my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes have always used that against me. In my defense, I stress that my grandfather on my father’s side fought the Germans during WWI, that my uncles on my mother’s side fought the Germans during WWII, and that my father would have fought the Germans during WWII if he had not been 4-F. Further, according to http://dna.ancestry.com, my ancestry is 33% Europe West, 28% Scandinavia, 24% Great Britain, 11% Ireland, 2% Europe East, 1% Finland/Northwest Russia, and 1% Italy/Greece. What if I had pretended to be Swedish? My critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes demonize, denigrate, and condemn people of German national origin. I should write a book about those of the aforesaid who are of German national origin themselves, but who demonize, denigrate, and condemn people of German national origin to curry favor with those who are anti-German American.)

https://www.reuters.com/article/us-china-internet/china-shuts-thousands-of-websites-in-clean-up-campaign-xinhua-idUSKCN1M302F
(FROM THE ARTICLE: China has shut down more than 4,000 websites and online accounts in a three-month campaign against “harmful” online information, the official Xinhua news agency said on Saturday, citing the country’s illegal publication watchdog. China keeps the internet under tight control and has been cracking down on a range of illegal online activities including pornography, gambling, religious proselytizing and even “spreading rumors”. In a campaign that started in May, the authorities tackled 120 violations and ordered 230 firms to rectify irregularities. More than 147,000 pieces of harmful information were removed by the end of August, according to China’s National Office Against Pornographic and Illegal Publications. Xinhua said the campaign targeted content in online fiction that spread improper values, vulgarity and obscenity, as well as content that infringed on copyright. Authorities announced last week that they had busted a live-streaming pornography platform hosted in Cambodia and said to have more than 3.5 million registered users.)

Among the reminiscences about sports and booze is a mysterious entry: “Renate Alumnius.” The word “Renate” appears at least 14 times in Georgetown Preparatory School’s 1983 yearbook, on individuals’ pages and in a group photo of nine football players, including Judge Kavanaugh, who were described as the “Renate Alumni.” It is a reference to Renate Schroeder, then a student at a nearby Catholic girls’ school. Two of Judge Kavanaugh’s classmates say the mentions of Renate were part of the football players’ unsubstantiated boasting about their conquests. “They were very disrespectful, at least verbally, with Renate,” said Sean Hagan, a Georgetown Prep student at the time, referring to Judge Kavanaugh and his teammates. “I can’t express how disgusted I am with them, then and now.”)

http://www.chicagotribune.com/suburbs/naperville-sun/news/ct-nvs-school-mock-elections-st-0919-story.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Students can be a harbinger for how the actual election might go. Becky Simon, president of the League of Women Voters of Naperville, said in past elections students have been accurate in picking the winners of the popular vote. Among the 14 percent of teens at the three local high schools who voted, Democrat J.B. Pritzker was favored by 62 percent of the nearly 1,200 teens who voted. Republican incumbent Gov. Bruce Rauner came in second with 25 percent of the vote. In the 11th District Congressional race, incumbent Democrat Bill Foster led with 72 percent of the mock vote over Republican Nick Stella’s 28 percent. Democratic Secretary of State Jesse White, probably the most familiar candidate with teens because his name is on their driver’s licenses and driving permits, was the overwhelming vote-getter in all of the races, receiving 74 percent of the ballots cast. In the other races, the Democrats were on top with more than half of the teen vote.)

(ANTI-TRUMPS SAY: Illinois’s Sixth District The suburbs of Chicago were a base of the Republican Party before Mr. Trump. One need only visit a shopping mall in Burr Ridge or a youth baseball game in Barrington Hills to see throngs of the white, highly educated voters who are the electoral backbone of the area, and once voted solidly for presidential candidates like Mitt Romney. But if these voters have leaned right in the past, drawn to promises of lower taxes and smaller government, Mr. Trump has pitched many of them back in the other direction. In Illinois’s Sixth Congressional District, the president’s combustible persona and administration have put Republican candidates in dire peril. Jane Melvin, 55, said she has typically voted Republican in the past and still yearned for a version of the party that has been fading away. “If John Kasich was running in my district, I would vote for him,” said Ms. Melvin, referring to the right-of-center Ohio governor who routinely chides Mr. Trump. Ms. Melvin said she had long supported her congressman, Peter Roskam, but was reconsidering this year because Republicans had failed to check the president. “It’s a character question and a silence question,” she said. “Because they won’t stand up to Trump and say this is wrong.” Mr. Roskam, a former member of the House Republican leadership team, represents one of 21 seats where college-educated white suburbanites could upend the Republican majority in the House. Most of these seats, in relatively homogenous communities around cities like Minneapolis and Philadelphia, are seen as electoral toss-ups. In 2016, Mr. Roskam easily secured re-election by nearly 20 percentage points, but Mrs. Clinton carried the area in the presidential race by about seven points. A Times/Siena College poll found Mr. Roskam effectively tied with his Democratic challenger, Sean Casten, a clean-energy businessman. Mr. Casten has closed in on Mr. Roskam with help from voters like Karrie Sullivan, a former Roskam supporter who said she now favors divided government — both in Washington, where Republicans are in charge, and in Illinois, where Democrats may take full control of government in November. “It seems like the best situation is when neither party has complete control,” Ms. Sullivan said. Mr. Roskam, like other Republican candidates in similar wealthy suburbs, has tried to make the Republican tax overhaul an asset to his campaign. But many suburban voters have bristled at changes to federal deductions for state and local taxes. Highlighting the gulf between the Republican white-collar base and Mr. Trump’s hard-line following, candidates like Mr. Roskam have broken with Mr. Trump on critical issues like tariffs. Pursuing both wavering moderates and hard-core conservatives, Mr. Roskam said at a recent debate that he considered Mr. Trump’s performance “middling.” “Good on the economy, jumbling on other issues,” he said.)

They stress that while I have been a MTRCC member since 1999, they have never asked me to a) serve on any MTRCC committee, b) serve as a chairman of any MTRCC committee, or c) serve as a MTRCC officer. They stress that their candidate destroyed me when I ran for MTRCC Treasurer in 2004. They stress that they rudely ended my MTRCC webmaster service in 2004 and 2010. They blame me for all defeats that Republican candidates have suffered in Wheaton, in Milton Township, in DuPage County, and in Illinois since 2000.)

— Christine Blasey Ford remembered in Dewey Beach bar scene (DIERSEN: What were you doing when you were 17 years old? I worked as a part-time dishwasher for the minimum wage in the basement of the S.S. Kresges in Chicago Heights. I bought a new 1966 Pontiac Tempest Sprint with the money that I had earned and saved washing dishes. I graduated from Crete-Monee High School. I just barely made into the upper 20% of my class. My ACT score was only 24. Nevertheless, I got accepted by UIC. During the summer of 1966, I worked as a golf shoe cleaner for the Flossmoor Country Club, as a slag chipper for Thrall Car in Chicago Heights, and as a gasoline pumper for John’s Sinclair in South Chicago Heights. I lived with my parents and brother in Crete. I saved money for college expenses. My eyesight could not be corrected to 20/20. I had partial red/green color blindness.

— Ben Carson’s HUD: Political loyalty required, no experience necessary – Tracy Jan (DIERSEN: GAO audits IRS. The Democrats who ran GAO 1980-1997 wasted my knowledge of IRS’s Collection Division. I worked for IRS’s Collection Division for almost 9 years, the last 5 1/2 years of which at the GS-12 Step 1-5 levels, currently $81,070-$91,880, before I transferred to GAO in 1980. While my Democrat GAO superiors assigned me to audits of IRS’s Criminal Investigation Division 1986-1988, they refused to assign me to audits of IRS’s Collection Division. They would have assigned me to audits of IRS’s Collection Division if I had been a Democrat, minority, female, and/or veteran.)
https://www.washingtonpost.com/business/economy/ben-carsons-hud-political-loyalty-required-no-experience-necessary/2018/09/20/addb8e74-9b0c-11e8-b60b-1c897f17e185_story.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development awarded promotions and pay increases to five political operatives with no housing policy experience within their first months on the job, demonstrating what government watchdogs and career staff describe as a premium put on loyalty over expertise. The raises, documented in a Washington Post analysis of HUD political hires, resulted in annual salaries between $98,000 and $155,000 for the five appointees, all of whom had worked on Donald Trump’s or Ben Carson’s presidential campaigns. Three of them did not list bachelor’s degrees on their résumés. The political hires were among at least 24 people without evident housing policy experience who were appointed to the best-paying political positions at HUD, an agency charged with serving the poorest Americans. They account for a third of the 70 HUD appointees at the upper ranks of the federal government, with salaries above $94,000, according to the Post review of agency records. The limited experience at the upper reaches of the agency — HUD Secretary Carson, a retired neurosurgeon, has no prior housing, executive or government background — injected confusion into the rollout of policy initiatives and brought delays to even routine functions, according to interviews with 16 current and former career staff members. “This administration is different, because the people coming in really don’t know housing at all,” said Ron Ashford, who retired as director of HUD’s public-housing supportive-service programs in January after 22 years at the agency. “As a result, they’re pursuing initiatives that aren’t grounded in reality.”)

They would focus on those who took the lead in ending my TAPROOT chairmanship, WCC Government Affairs Committee membership, MTRCC webmaster service, ICRC Steering Committee membership, AAPC Midwest Chapter board membership, GAO employment, etc. They would especially focus on those Republican candidates since 2000 who were on ballots in my precinct a) who blame me for their defeat or b) blame me for their not winning by a greater margin.

ILLINOIS VALLEY TIMES
— McGlasson says Long is latest target of GOP cleansing campaign – W.J. Kennedy
https://illinoisvalleytimes.com/stories/511571904-mcglasson-says-long-is-latest-target-of-gop-cleansing-campaign
(FROM THE ARTICLE: John McGlasson, central committeeman for Illinois’ 16th Congressional District believes the Republican Party is attempting to torpedo the re-election of Rep. Jerry Long (R-Streator) in a campaign to rid the party of anyone not in lockstep with Gov. Bruce Rauner. “[The Illinois GOP] targeted me and three others in our run for Central Committee (last spring),” McGlasson told the Illinois Valley Times. “I saw what dirty tricks they can play. Bob Winchester knows this too.” Sen. Chapin Rose (R-Mahomet) ran against Winchester in the race for Republican State Central Committeeman in the15th Congressional District. The Republican Party declared Rose the winner after tallying votes by acclamation and not individually, a procedure that counters both Illinois Election Code and party rules, according to the Prairie State Wire. Winchester challenged the results, but the case is still languishing in U.S. district court. Despite being targeted by the party, McGlasson, Mark Shaw in the 10th district, and Fred Floreth in the 13th district all won their races for Central Committee. Shaw went on to cut a deal with the party and is now state co-chair. Long doesn’t talk the “same line” as Rauner, who trails Democrat J.B. Pritzker by double digits in the polls, McGlasson said. “It’s my opinion that Rauner believes the only way he can win this thing is to have everyone talking the same line and get only those targeted votes to come out,” he said. Rauner, McGlasson added, isn’t looking for a big turnout out but a select one. “He has to be hoping for a big snowstorm on election day,” he said. The Republican party recently dropped support for Long, including funding from the House Republican Organization (HRO), after it was “made aware of allegations into Rep. Long’s behavior,” according to a statement by House Republican Leader Jim Durkin. The accuser, an HRO employee, accused Long of harassment. Long quickly released a statement saying he was only guilty of having a different perspective on HRO’s level of support for his race and that he will continue campaigning at a grassroots level. “This is not sexual harassment of any kind but merely a difference of opinion on the lack of support by the Republican Party that goes back several months,” Long said. “At this time I have no intention on pulling out of the race because this just proves that I’m not a part of the ‘Good Ole Boys’ club.” Long is expected to release another statement after consulting with his lawyers, a source said. McGlasson and local Republican leaders in the 76th district recently met and reaffirmed their support for Long. “It’s unimaginable to me that they (GOP) would cede such a hard-won seat,” McGlasson said. In 2016, Long defeated Andy Skoog (D-Utica) by 607 votes. The Democrats had held the seat for decades. On Nov. 6, he faces off against Democrat Lance Yednock of Ottawa.)

ILLINOIS LEAKS
— DuPage County Election Commission sued for moving election district boundaries – JOHN KRAFT
http://edgarcountywatchdogs.com/2018/09/dupage-county-election-commission-sued-for-moving-election-district-boundaries/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: A Complaint has been filed against the DuPage County Election Commission alleging the commission moved boundaries of one precinct and two legislative districts without proper authority to move the boundaries. It involved moving certain properties out of Naperville Township Precinct #25, the 49th Representative District, and the 25th Legislative District. Those properties were moved, without authority into Naperville Township Precinct #6, the 41st Representative District, and the 21st Legislative District. It seeks to have the commission reverse its move and ensure that residents of certain real estate within the county vote in the legislative districts that they are actually part of, based on the most recent approved map. It asks the Court to order the commission to distribute the correct ballots to the properties in question, and order the commission to refrain from delivering the wrong ballot to those properties, and complains of a violation of voter’s rights. Complaint (http://edgarcountywatchdogs.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/09/Verified-Complaint-for-Injunction-FILED-4848-7192-1011.pdf) Exhibits (http://edgarcountywatchdogs.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/09/Exhibits-A-F-FILED.pdf) Candidate and incumbent State Representative Grant Wehrli is the Plaintiff. His attorney is Keri-Lyn Krafthefer of Ancel, Glink, Diamond, Bush, DiCianni & Krafthefer P.C. We understand there is a Hearing on the Complaint scheduled for September 19th in DuPage Circuit Court.)

BOSTON HERALD
— Kavanaugh allegation can’t be taken back – Rich Lowry
http://www.bostonherald.com/opinion/op_ed/2018/09/kavanaugh_allegation_can_t_be_taken_back
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Brett Kavanaugh, who the day before yesterday was an unimpeachable pillar of the legal establishment, stands accused of a heinous offense that is almost impossible to definitively rebut. Even if he is completely innocent of the charge that he sexually assaulted a teenage girl at a high school party 36 years ago, he will be forever considered guilty of it by some portion of the public. This is not due process, or any kind of decent process at all, but how the Senate conducts its business, especially if you are a conservative jurist on the cusp of confirmation to the Supreme Court. A 51-year-old research psychologist named Christine Blasey Ford went public with the accusation in a Washington Post interview over the weekend, saying she feared for her life when the teenage Kavanaugh attacked her. The charge was inevitably viewed through the prism of #MeToo. But it lacks the credibility of allegations that have felled powerful men over the past two years. There is no contemporaneous corroboration. There is no pattern of conduct on the part of Kavanaugh. There is no weaselly, “Well, I don’t remember it that way, but I’m sorry if she was offended” denial; Kavanaugh rejects the charge categorically. Contrast the allegations against, to take a Republican from another moral universe, the Alabama Senate candidate Roy Moore. A key accuser from decades ago told friends about her relationship with Moore at the time. There was more than one allegation — indeed, Moore had a reputation for unsavory interest in teenage girls. When he first reacted to the stories, Moore gave a mealy mouthed denial.)

 

TIME
— Colleagues Defend Brett Kavanaugh’s Accuser as a Person of Integrity – AP (DIERSEN: How many demographics do you share with Kavanaugh? Both Kavanaugh and I are old non-veteran White male conservative Republicans whose ancestors have been in America for a long time. While Kavanaugh is a federal employee, I am a retired federal employee. While Kavanaugh is Catholic, I was baptized, raised, and confirmed as a Missouri Synod Lutheran. While Kavanaugh is Irish national origin, I am German national origin. If you were accused of wrongdoing by a woman, who would defend your integrity? My accusers would hint/imply/argue/shout that I am “guilty as charged” if the following failed/refused to defend my integrity: a) past and present Milton Township Republican Central Committee, DuPage County Republican Central Committee, Illinois Republican Party, TAPROOT Republicans of Illinois, Wheaton Chamber of Commerce, Illinois Center Right Coalition, American Association of Political Consultants, etc. members; b) past and present GAO, IRS, Post Office, etc. employees; c) defendants in lawsuits that I have filed; d) all the candidates who have been on Republican primary ballots in my precinct since 2000, e) etc.)

I should write a book about the worse of them.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: As a recruiter, I am the canary in the coal mine. Speaking with hiring managers, human resources professionals and candidates every day offers insight into the hiring trends before they hit the mainstream. One of the most disturbing recent trends I’ve noticed is the blatant and unabashed discrimination against older employees. These are the loyal, corporate veterans in their mid-to-late-40s and older with 20-30 years of relevant experience.)

— Can white people experience racism? (DIERSEN: Ever-increasingly, anti-Whites demonize, denigrate, and condemn Whites as being White supremacists, Nazis, KKK members, haters, racists, sexists, bigots, and even worse things. How soon, if not already, signs will be posted that say “Whites not welcome.” Anti-Whites vote for Democrats.)
