Are you a Republican Precinct Committeeman/Captain? How soon, if not already, will the anti-Trumps in your precinct demand a town hall meeting with you?  What will they accuse you of doing to help elect Trump?  211 voted for Clinton in my precinct and only 137 voted for Trump.  Ever-increasingly, anti-Trumps threaten violence.)

Roskam’s office cancels ACA meeting when reporter shows up – Linda Girardi  (DIERSEN: Ever-increasingly, anti-Trumps threaten violence.  Roskam and Hultgren endorsed me when I first ran for Republican Precinct Committeeman in 2000.  What do your critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes say to your congressman about you?  From the beginning, my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes have always badmouthed me to Roskam.  They hint/imply/argue/shout that if Roskam did not have such a low opinion of me, I would still be the TAPROOT Republicans of Illinois chairman, a Wheaton Chamber of Commerce Government Affairs Committee member, the Milton Township Republican Central Committee webmaster, an Illinois Center Right Coalition Steering Committee member, an American Association of Political Consultants Midwest Chapter board member, etc.  Certain of my nastiest critics/opponents hint/imply/argue/shout that they have tremendous influence over Roskam.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: A group of 16 constituents that arranged to meet with staff members at the West Chicago district office of U.S. Rep. Peter Roskam (R-Wheaton) Wednesday about their concerns with a repeal of the Affordable Care Act were abruptly told they would have to reschedule after staff realized a member of the press was present. Sandra Alexander said she scheduled the meeting weeks ago and was stunned that they were turned away. “We are going to be respectful and see if they will change their minds,” Alexander said. After several minutes, no one returned to speak with the group. The constituents decided to hold the meeting in the lobby without the presence of Roskam’s staff. “I am stunned at what happened,” Alexander said. After several minutes, no one returned to speak with the group. The constituents decided to hold the meeting in the lobby without the presence of Roskam’s staff. “I am stunned at what happened,” Alexander said. Alexander, of Glen Ellyn, said she arranged to meet with Roskam’s district director Lee Campuzano and outreach coordinator Eddie Corrigan. Corrigan told The Beacon-News reporter before the group had arrived that the press is not allowed in private meetings with constituents. “It is a meeting with constituents — we are not shutting down the press,” Corrigan said. Corrigan said the meeting was planned between constituents and high level staff. When the group arrived, another staff member behind a sliding glass window criticized the group for having invited the press and said that there was only to be about eight people at the meeting. “We will reschedule the meeting,” he told the group. Alexander said she was not informed of any conditions of the meeting. She acknowledged that she did inform the congressman’s office that there would be about eight constituents present. Alexander said by Wednesday, she didn’t know how many people to expect and that she did prepare the group that it was likely not everyone would be invited into the meeting. Alexander told the staff member that the reporter did not have to come into the meeting. The staffer walked away, and no one returned to provide any other explanation. “He just ran off,” Alexander said. “They never told me that the media could not be here, and the reporter was willing to leave so that we could have our meeting,” she said. “I am flabbergasted that Peter Roskam and his staff would turn us away,” the constituent said. “They didn’t have the courtesy to listen to us. We are a peaceful group.” “I told him nobody communicated to me that the media could not come. I also told him that the press was willing to leave. This is Freedom of the Press — the media has a right to be here and we have the right to talk with the media. I really don’t understand what happened here today. Shame on Peter Roskam. It is very sad that this is how he feels about his constituents,” Alexander said.)

— Bill proposes elimination of DuPage Election Commission pay – ANDREA EARNEST
http://www.mysuburbanlife.com/2017/01/31/bill-proposes-elimination-of-dupage-election-commission-pay/ao1ua53/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: State Reps. David Olsen, R-Downers Grove, and Jeanne Ives, R-Wheaton, have sponsored a bill that would amend the Election Code so that election commissioners will serve in an unpaid capacity. This bill would eliminate the $27,500 annual salary paid to the DuPage County Election Commission. Olsen said the initiative was actually brought forward by a constituent in DuPage County. The constituent thought the pay was disproportionate compared to other elected boards. “I thought it would be worthwhile to put that idea forward and include it in the conversation,” he said. “I want to make sure the Election Commission is as responsive as possible to the people of DuPage County.” He said he wanted people to serve on the Election Commission because they care about elections in DuPage County being conducted fairly. “Ultimately, we are trying to ensure that people are on this board for the right reasons,” Olsen said.)

— Things to know about Black History Month – AP (DIERSEN: Democrats and RINOs have always used Black History Month to paint Republicans as being racists. My critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes have always hinted/implied/argued/shouted a) that instead of me, the Post Office should have hired a Black in 1966, b) that the Post Office should gotten rid of me much sooner than it did so that a Black could have my job, c) that instead of me, IRS should have hired a Black in 1971, d) that instead of me, IRS should have promoted Blacks in 1972, 1973, and 1974, e) that instead of me, GAO should have hired a Black in 1980, f) that instead of me, GAO should have promoted a Black in 1986, and g) that GAO should gotten rid of me much sooner than it did so that a Black could have my job and my preferred corner office.)
http://www.wsiltv.com/story/34407388/things-to-know-about-black-history-month
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Every president since Gerald R. Ford through Barack Obama has issued a statement honoring the spirit of Black History Month. Ford first honored Black History Week in 1975, calling the recognition “most appropriate,” as the country developed “a healthy awareness on the part of all of us of achievements that have too long been obscured and unsung.” The next year, in 1976, Ford issued the first Black History Month commemoration, saying with the celebration “we can seize the opportunity to honor the too-often neglected accomplishments of black Americans in every area of endeavor throughout our history.” President Jimmy Carter added in 1978 that the celebration “provides for all Americans a chance to rejoice and express pride in a heritage that adds so much to our way of life,” with President Ronald Reagan saying in 1981 that “understanding the history of black Americans is a key to understanding the strength of our nation.” The White House said Trump also plans an official proclamation as well as other events. “President Trump is excited to honor the contributions, culture and rich history of African-Americans in our country,” Trump spokeswoman Omarosa Manigault said.)

Darin LaHood (R-Ill.), all of Lebanese descent, support Trump’s executive order. “I am proud of my heritage and appreciate the contributions of our forefathers, but the future greatness of the United States depends upon the safety and security of Americans today,” Graves said in a statement Monday. LaHood, son of former GOP congressman and secretary of transportation Ray LaHood, said the travel ban “should be viewed as protecting our homeland and its citizens.” “The United States will continue to be a beacon of hope and opportunity for those looking to immigrate to a better way of life, but first and foremost, national security for our American citizens and our homeland must be priority No. 1,” he said in a statement Monday. Neither Graves nor LaHood agreed to be interviewed for this article.)

— Illinois Policy Institute Pitches State Budget Plan With No Tax Hike – Craig Dellimore
http://chicago.cbslocal.com/2017/01/31/conservative-policy-group-pitches-state-budget-plan-with-no-tax-hike/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: A conservative lobbying group has outlined a plan for ending the state’s budget standoff without a major income tax increase. The Illinois Policy Institute’s budget plan would move all new employees and as many current workers as it can persuade into a 401(k)-style retirement plan, instead of defined pensions. The proposal also would make most able-bodied people without children ineligible for Medicaid, impose the state’s most recent contract offer to unionized state workers, reduce state payroll by 10 percent, and freeze property taxes for five years. Illinois Policy Institute CEO John Tillman said it also would end state revenue sharing with larger local governments, which he claimed spend more money than they should. “We want to end that charade. We want to create local accountability. If a local school district wants to engage in pension spiking at the end of a teacher’s career, they can do that. If they want to give administrators excessive compensation packages, they can do that. But they won’t be able to send the bill to other taxpayers anymore,” he said. Tillman said state mandates on local government would be reduced, but he acknowledged there would be skepticism and resistance to much of the IPI budget plan. “Every single political actor at the local level will want to hold on to every penny they can, and it won’t be until the public demands these reforms that we really see the political will,” he said. State Rep. Jeanne Ives (R-Wheaton) said she thinks the public will press for approval of the IPI budget plan. “That four-person family where the dad’s working his tail off, and maybe has a second job, and they know that they’re funding the Medicare for an able-bodied single adult who doesn’t want to get a job; I’ll tell you what, they’re all in on this plan, sir. All in,” she said.)

DAILY HERALD
— Constituents crowd Hultgren office to discuss president – James Fuller  (DIERSEN: Anti-Trumps are nasty.)
http://www.dailyherald.com/article/20170131/news/170139747/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: “People are very concerned about President Trump,” Scown told a nodding Goncher. “He has no understanding of his limited powers under the Constitution. He shows no discipline. We feel it’s our Congress’ duty to address an out of control president. We want to know that Mr. Hultgren will protect the Constitution and protect our rights.” Specifically, Scown pointed Trump’s recent ban on immigration from seven Muslim-majority nations as unconstitutional. Miller, an armed services veteran, said preventing Muslims who are non-U.S. citizens who helped U.S. military efforts in the Middle East is “a disgrace.” Hultgren released a statement Monday calling the ban “overly broad” with an “inconsistent and confused” interpretation. Hultgren said he supports efforts to review immigration screening processes to strengthen them. However, he said the process to vet refugees is “already extensive and thorough.” Miller said Hultgren’s statement was “weak” and didn’t go far enough. “He didn’t stand up and say it’s immoral, illegal, and we should ban it,” Miller said. The constituents also called on Hultgren to make his position known on various presidential cabinet appointments, especially those involving the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency and the education department. “Will the congressman stand up and protect the environment?” Miller asked. “Will he stand up for public schools?” Goncher said Hultgren does plan on hosting a town hall shortly. The staff has not set the time and place for such a public meeting, she said. Goncher pledged to call every one of the constituents who came to the office Tuesday and make separate appointments to listen to their concerns if need be. “We will always be available,” she said. “What we’re asking if that they make an appointment. If they give us a heads up on the topic, we can have a little bit more information to share with them.”)

REPUBLICAN NEWS WATCH
— President Trump v. Useful Idiots, et al. – DOUG IBENDAHL
http://republicannewswatch.com/wp/?p=14253
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The protests against our new Commander-in-Chief aren’t going to stop. In fact, expect the hate and anger to get hotter, and the size of the protests to get larger, as President Trump keeps winning for America. And the winning has only begun. So don’t let the protests dampen your post-election joy. Just sit back and savor the spectacle. The Extreme Left – which is the only wing left in the Democratic Party — is nothing if not entertaining. The Democrats have proven they don’t care an iota about expanding economic opportunity for the millions abandoned by their failed ideology and political idols. And they have also made it painfully obvious that keeping Americans safe is the least of their concerns. I seriously question whether there’s a single protester out there who truly believes Trump will harm the interests of women, the LGBT community, African-Americans, Hispanics, or anyone else. It’s actually quite the opposite. What’s keeping the Democrats up at night is a recurring nightmare in which Donald Trump continues to make good on his promises to lift-up all and unite the country. The typical Trump hater out there marching and/or inciting violence isn’t concerned about others. It’s purely a selfish concern centered on their fear of becoming even more irrelevant – if that’s even possible. Donald Trump and his supporters can take heart in the fact that another great President faced similar opposition from a hysterical Left, and it only made him stronger.)

AMERICAN THINKER
— Why American Jews Are Overwhelmingly Liberal – Steve Feinstein  (DIERSEN: Democrats are nasty.  While I worked for the federal government for almost 30 years, many of my superiors, supervisors, coworkers, and subordinates were Jewish.  My Democrat superiors, Democrat supervisors, Democrat coworkers, and Democrat subordinates stressed to them a) that I was baptized, raised, and confirmed as a Missouri Synod Lutheran, b) that I was conservative, c) that I was Republican, and d) that I was 100% German national origin.  In my defense, I stressed a) that all my ancestors immigrated to northeast Illinois during the 1840s and 1850s, b) my grandfather on my father’s side fought the Germans in WWI, c) that my uncles on my mother’s side fought the Germans in WWII, and d) that my father would have fought the Germans in WWII if he had not been 4-F.)

— How the wealthy Obamas could become wealthier – Thomas Heath  (DIERSEN: Democrats demonize, denigrate, and condemn Republicans who are wealthy, but not Democrats who are wealthy.)
https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/business/wp/2017/01/23/how-the-wealthy-obamas-could-become-wealthier/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Speaker? Professor? Author? Board member? Owner of a professional basketball team? Those are among the job prospects being bandied about for Barack Obama’s time post-presidency. All ex-presidents receive an annual pension of $205,700 annually, which is pegged to inflation. And Obama’s kicked in on Jan. 20. They also receive federal money for offices and administrative help. Beyond that, they are on their own. Obama is a relatively young man of 55, so the ex-president — who is kicking back for a few days near Palm Springs in Rancho Mirage, Calif. — could spend decades making a living from several income streams. One safe bet is public speaking, which has enriched most former presidents. An ex-president can command $250,000 or more for a speech. “We don’t know what Obama is going to do, but I’m comfortable saying he isn’t going to go out and grab as many high-priced speeches as he can get,” said James Thurber, director of the Center for Congressional and Presidential Studies at American University. “He’s going to lean toward book writing, writing his memoirs. He’s an intellectual who has had good success with two books and probably will have good success with future books.” In just 2009, Obama earned $5.1 million from those two books, “The Audacity of Hope,” and “Dreams From My Father.” The New York Times estimated that Obama and his wife, Michelle, could earn anywhere from $20 million to $45 million from future book contracts. And Obama said in his farewell news conference that he would like to write after leaving office. It worked for Ulysses S. Grant. The former president secured his family’s financial future when the Civil War hero finished his memoirs while suffering from terminal throat cancer. The Obamas are already wealthy. One report a year ago pegged the president’s net worth at $12.2 million. That and his pension should keep him comfortable as he rents a home in Washington’s upscale Kalorama neighborhood for $22,000 a month. Obama, an avid golfer, is also reportedly noodling around for a home in Rancho Mirage, where golf is akin to a religion. Obama could go back to teaching. He was a lecturer at the University of Chicago Law School for 12 years before he was elected to the U.S. Senate. The Harvard Law School graduate could return to Chicago, where the Obamas own a $1.5 million home, or teach in Washington, or at Columbia University in New York, where he studied as an undergraduate.)

AMERICAN THINKER
— An idea for $60 billion per year in federal savings – Bob Fitzhenry  (DIERSEN: Does Fitzhenry approve or disapprove of the federal government’s wasting my career and forcing me to retire in 1997 when I was 49 years old?  Democrats and Democrat plants, Libertarians and Libertarian plants, Greens and Green plants, and RINOs HAVE NO PROBLEM WITH the federal government’s wasting my career and forcing me to retire in 1997 when I was 49 years old.)
http://www.americanthinker.com/blog/2017/01/an_idea_60_billion_per_year_in_federal_savings.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: I dusted off an old idea of mine because of President Trump’s freeze on federal hiring, his tasking to create an attrition plan, and a statistic I read yesterday in a Washington Post article by Juliet Eilperin.  Eilperin reported that in the federal workforce, “there are nearly three times as many employees over age 60 as under age 30.”  Yikes.  That’s no way to run a railroad. The idea I’d roughed out gave a way to cut back the federal workforce by tempting people to retire or move on earlier than they would otherwise.  Depending on whom I’d run the idea past, I’d hear that it’s fantasy, fantastic, or the best sense of fantastical. The cliché to address what I’d like to see happen is, “You’ve got to spend money to make money.”  What if we spent a bunch of money offering departure incentives high enough to entice 750,000 feds to resign or retire?  Then, how about filling one third of the vacated positions with veterans, graduates, and the un- and underemployed?  We’d be spending billions to save billions more every year, and to get 250,000 people into careers they and the country need them to have.)

If their treatment of me at the Wheaton Chamber of Commerce January 19, 2017 State of the City Address is any indication, now that Trump is our President, they are dramatically increasing their efforts a) to harm the parade and patriotism, b) to discourage/stop Republican participation in the parade, and c) to discourage/stop Republicans from donating for the parade.  They are fully aware that I will raise $2,500 for the parade this year from Republicans, even if that means that I donate all of that $2,500.)

NEW YORK POST
— How these unemployed people survive in America – John Crudele  (DIERSEN: Are you unemployed?  If so, how do you get by? As a 68-year-old unemployed retired federal employee, I have received a dramatically reduced Civil Service Retirement System pension (currently $50,856 a year) since 1997.  In addition, I have received dramatically reduced Social Security (currently $2,028 a year) since 2010.)
http://nypost.com/2017/01/22/how-these-unemployed-people-survive-in-america/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Dear John: In a nutshell, I am getting by because I still have a good credit score (690, I believe). I am a 66-year-old retired civilian federal employee. I was able to retire when I was age 55 after 32 years of service and receive my full pension (currently about $3,600 net monthly). I retired to “pursue other interests,” as the cliche goes.)

FED SMITH
— I Do Solemnly Swear That I Will… – Jeff Neal (DIERSEN: My Democrat superiors, supervisors, coworkers, and subordinates in the federal government hinted/implied/argued/shouted that the Constitution of the United States required them to get rid of federal employees who were Republican, White, male, older, and/or non-veteran. It is called Affirmative Action, Diversity, and Inclusion.)
http://www.fedsmith.com/2017/01/18/i-do-solemnly-swear-that-i-will/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: People in the private sector do not take an oath of office when they get a job. They get an offer, report to work, and that’s it. For federal employees it is different. Reading so many articles about the inauguration that refer to the president-elect taking the oath of office on the 20th of January got me thinking about oaths and what they mean. I have taken that oath of office as a civil service employee. Raising your right hand and swearing to “support and defend the Constitution of the United States” is not something most people take lightly. It is a solemn oath and it means something to most people who take it.)

— A Big Drag: How Much Puffing In Illinois Costs Smokers – Kelly Bauer  (DIERSEN: I have never been a smoker.  While I worked for the federal government for almost 30 years, many, if not most of my Democrat superiors, supervisors, coworkers, and subordinates who worked the hardest against me were smokers.  Almost all of them were White, male, and/or older.  Many of them had severe health problems.)
https://www.dnainfo.com/chicago/20170117/downtown/big-drag-how-much-puffing-illinois-costs-smokers
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Smoking will cost you big time in Illinois.  The habit will cost a smoker an estimated nearly $1.8 million throughout his or her lifetime, making Illinois among the costliest states in the nation for users, according to a new study. The study from WalletHub looked at the out-of-pocket cost to smokers as well as financial opportunity cost (how much money smokers would have made by investing money instead of spending it on cigarettes), healthcare cost, income loss per smoke and other expenses. The study found smoking in Illinois will end up costing people more than $34,000 a year or $1.77 million over a lifetime of smoking for about 50 years. For a pack-a-day smoker, the habit can cost more than $2,700 per year just to buy cigarettes, the study found.)

http://www.sj-r.com/news/20170117/illinois-is-short-600-school-substitutes-day-study-finds
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Public-school administrators are scrambling to find substitute teachers for as many as 600 Illinois classrooms a day, a survey finds. The review released Tuesday by the Illinois Association of Regional Superintendents of Schools revealed that teachers call in more than 16,500 absences each week. School officials have trouble finding replacements for nearly 20 percent of them.)

 

WJBD
— Donald Trump: ‘I Don’t Like Tweeting’ – ABC NEWS (DIERSEN: I do not like putting GOPUSA ILLINOIS emails together and sending them out each and every morning and each and every evening.  Like Trump, “I have other things I could be doing.” But tremendous communication voids continue to exist in Illinois, in DuPage County, in Milton Township, in Wheaton, in etc. that no one is filling.  The Illinois Republican Party, the DuPage County Republican Central Committee, the Milton Township Republican Central Committee, and other conservative and Republican organizations in Illinois do not have the time, the motivation, the experience, and/or the money like I do to help keep Illinois Republicans up to date with government and political news and commentary every 12 hours.)
http://www.wjbdradio.com/politics/2017/01/18/donald-trump-i-dont-like-tweeting
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Despite appearances to the contrary, President-elect Donald Trump says he isn’t a fan of tweeting. In an interview with Fox News slated to air Wednesday, Trump said he uses Twitter to defend himself against the “dishonest media.” “Look, I don’t like tweeting,” Trump told Fox & Friends co-host Ainsley Earhardt. “I have other things I could be doing. But I get very dishonest media, very dishonest press. It’s my only way that I can counteract.” He continued: “When people misrepresent me — because the press is very dishonest, unbelievably dishonest … When people misrepresent me, I have at least a way of saying it’s a false statement. If the press were honest, which is not, I would absolutely not use Twitter. I wouldn’t have to.”)

— Wheaton City Council approves facility for single moms at former Wheaton Inn  Facility to serve as many as 12 new and expectant single mothers – ERIC SCHELKOPF
http://www.mysuburbanlife.com/2017/01/18/wheaton-city-council-approves-facility-for-single-moms-at-former-wheaton-inn/a5r6lc4/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The Wheaton City Council on Jan. 17 voted 6-0 to approve plans for the former Wheaton Inn building at 301 W. Roosevelt Road to become a facility for new and expectant single mothers. The Clarendon Hills-based company Love From Above plans to offer a two-year transitional housing program for women 18 to 26 years old that will serve single mothers in DuPage County. The facility would serve as many as 12 women at any given time who find themselves in “crisis pregnancies,” Love From Above President and founder Yvonne Florczak-Seeman previously said. City Council members approved the plans contingent on the installation of landscaping for the property and the replacement of any required landscaping that has died or is dying. In addition, the facility will only be able to serve a maximum of 12 women at any given time. While Wheaton Mayor Michael Gresk said he would have preferred to have seen a commercial use for the building, “it’s good to see that building occupied.” “It’s an appropriate use,” he said. Council members previously asked if the facility would have to be licensed or regulated by the state. Greg Dose, attorney for the applicant, wrote a letter to the city stating the facility is not subject to regulation or licensing by the Department of Children and Family Services under the Illinois Child Care Act. In the letter, Dose said the facility will be the primary residence of the women. “While they reside there, it will be their home and the home of their infant and toddler children,” Dose said in the letter. “There will be no children on the premises other than those of the moms. Thus all child care that occurs on the premises will be home-based child care.” Dose said the facility is exempt from DCFS licensing and regulation because the children will not be apart from their parents. Wheaton’s city attorney has agreed with Dose’s opinion. As proposed, the women staying at the facility would have to be enrolled in college to participate in the program. This would be the company’s first facility, which will be called The Butterfly Garden…A Place for Healing and Transformation. The Wheaton Inn originally was built in 1987 and most recently was used as office space by an investment company that relocated to Downers Grove a few years ago. Council member Suzanne Fitch was absent from the meeting.)

— John’s Gospel of Trump’s Illegitimacy – Charles M. Blow  (DIERSEN: Are you a draft avoider? I sought and obtained student draft deferments 1966-1970 and I sought and obtained a financial hardship draft deferment 1970-1971.  Since 1966, my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes have used that against me. They focus on turning veterans against me.  While I worked for the federal government for almost 30 years, most of my superiors, supervisors, coworkers, and subordinates were veterans, and at times, virtually all of them were veterans.)
https://www.nytimes.com/2017/01/16/opinion/johns-gospel-of-trumps-illegitimacy.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Trump attacks Lewis as, “All talk, talk, talk — no action”; Lewis, who repeatedly thrust his body unto the breach for justice, who was arrested, beaten and terrorized, including during the time that young Trump was at his well-heeled schools, receiving draft deferments from the Vietnam War. In fact, one of Trump’s five deferments was in 1965, the same year as the Selma marches and “Bloody Sunday,” during which Lewis was struck so violently by a state trooper wielding a billy club that Lewis’s skull was fractured. Coincidentally, Trump finally received his permanent exemption from the draft, a 4-F status, in the year before he and his father were sued by the Department of Justice for violating the Fair Housing Act of 1968 — one of the many justice issues Lewis championed. As The New York Times noted at the time: “The government contended that Trump Management had refused to rent or negotiate rentals ‘because of race and color.’ It also charged that the company had required different rental terms and conditions because of race and that it had misrepresented to blacks that apartments were not available.” Let’s be clear: Donald Trump doesn’t even deserve to stand in John Lewis’s shadow. The spectacular obscenity of Trump’s comment is incomparable and deeply repulsive.)

http://www.wsj.com/articles/china-tightens-apps-oversight-1484568024
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Plugging a gap in the Great Firewall, China on Monday began requiring internet app stores to register with the state. China has long censored websites, barring outlawed content such as pornography, the promotion of illegal activity including terrorism and “rumors,” a term regulators often apply to antigovernment statements. But apps create a special challenge for government censors, experts say, because they often incorporate a wide variety of functions and serve as platforms for users to exchange information, making them harder to oversee. They are also multiplying quickly.)

— Pulling Retirement Cash, but Not by Choice  Baby boomers’ mandatory withdrawals from 401(k)s, IRAs and other tax-deferred retirement accounts start in full force this year, touching off a massive shift of cash – VIPAL MONGA and SARAH KROUSE  (DIERSEN: The cost of living in Wheaton is very high.  Because my Democrat superiors in the federal government wasted my career and forced me to retire in 1997 when I was 49 years old, my Civil Service Retirement System pension is dramatically reduced.  Because of that, increasingly, my wife and I are spending more than our income. When I am 70 1/2, we will use my required minimum distribution to help pay for things like real estate taxes, income taxes, medical expenses, food, utilities, and insurance.)
http://www.wsj.com/articles/pulling-retirement-cash-but-not-by-choice-1484568043
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The largest generation in U.S. history has to start pulling its retirement money this year, kicking off a mandatory movement of cash that could total hundreds of billions in the coming decades. U.S. law requires anyone age 70 ½ or older to begin annual withdrawals from their tax-sheltered retirement accounts and pay taxes on those distributions. The oldest of the nation’s 75 million baby boomers cross that threshold for the first time this month, according to a U.S. Census Bureau estimate of when that demographic group began. The obligatory outflows from 401(k)s and IRAs are expected to ripple through the U.S. economy, the stock market and a money-management industry that relies heavily on fees from boomers’ tax-sheltered savings plans and assets. Boomers hold roughly $10 trillion in tax-deferred savings accounts, according to an estimate by Edward Shane, a managing director at Bank of New York Mellon Corp. Over the next two decades, the number of people age 70 or older is expected to nearly double to 60 million—roughly the population of Italy. Firms that manage 401(k) plans are trying to persuade clients to reinvest their withdrawals in other products rather than spending or donating the cash to charity. It’s another pain point for many traditional money managers already struggling to keep some clients from shifting into lower-cost index-tracking mutual funds.)
