CHICAGO TRIBUNE
— FRONT PAGE TOP OF FOLD WITH COLOR PHOTO OF PRITZKER: With Pritzker win, pot legalization is now in legislators’ hands, but not all are on board – Robert McCoppin (DIERSEN: If you promote pot, you promote destruction.)
https://www.chicagotribune.com/news/local/breaking/ct-met-pritzker-illinois-marijuana-legalize-legislature-20181108-story.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Kevin Sabet, head of Smart Approaches to Marijuana, which opposes legalization, said he thinks the study authors are biased. Sabet said they failed to account for the serious downsides of drug use, such as car accidents and substance abuse. He also said decriminalization of marijuana, which took effect in Illinois in 2016, addresses many of the social justice issues. Holdouts against legalization remain ready to fight it in the General Assembly. House Republican leader Jim Durkin said lawmakers should stop their rush toward legalization. “I will never support legalization,” he said. “I don’t like how quickly we are moving. Illinois should not be part of this lab experiment. I see no societal value.” Durkin supports medical marijuana for pain and end-of-life care and said that program appears successful in prohibiting access for underage use and the illegal drug market. He called for lawmakers to review the results when that pilot program expires in summer 2020, before moving beyond it, but said he does not know how much opposition remains in Springfield.)

— My house is worth how much? Fixes to tax assessments bring dramatic changes for Chicago homeowners – Hal Dardick (DIERSEN: If homes cannot be sold for their assessed value, should taxing bodies be required to pay home sellers a) the difference between the selling price and the assessed value and b) refunds of real estate taxes paid based on recalculated home value back 5, 10, 15, 20+ years?)

— Put on your big boy pants, Mr. President, and let CNN’s Jim Acosta do his job – John Kass (DIERSEN: I should write a book about activists, candidates, elected officials, and party leaders in Illinois who claim to be religious, conservative, and/or Republican, but a) who do NOT want me to know about their press conferences, b) who do NOT want me to attend their press conferences, c) who do NOT want me to ask questions during their press conferences, d) who do NOT want me to speak with other reporters, e) who have barred me from attending their press conferences, f) who have had me thrown out of their press conferences, and/or g) who do not want me to report on their press conferences. Ever-increasingly, they want me to agree to not report anything about their fundraisers before they will let me attend their fundraisers. Since 2005, they have viciously used against me what happened with GOPUSA, Talon News, and White House Correspondent Jeff Gannon. SEE: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talon_News They paint me as being a clone of Jeff Gannon and even worse things. Ever since I became a GOPUSA reporter in 2000, my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes have hinted/implied/argued/shouted that I ask bad questions at press conferences and share privileged information with reporters that have caused Republican candidates to be defeated and even worse things. Of course, I should sue my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes.)

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 of Swedish national origin?)

POLITICO ILLINOIS
— DIERSEN HEADLINE: To vote for Democrats is to promote abortion.

(FROM THE ARTICLE: HB40 reared its head in Tuesday’s election. Every incumbent who voted for the controversial measure was reelected, and sponsors of the HB4114 to repeal HB40 were defeated. They are state Reps. Peter Breen, Christine Winger and Sheri Jesiel. Breen’s defeat was particularly shocking. Along with being had been an outspoken opponent of HB40, which repealed the “trigger” language in Illinois stating that the day Roe v. Wade is ever modified or overturned, abortion would be illegal in Illinois with no exceptions. HB40 also removed the restriction on state funding for some abortions. After the bill passed and was signed by the governor, Breen filed suit to dismantle the legislation. Personal PAC, which supports abortion rights, spent more than $300,000 to unseat Breen, “and it was worth every penny,” Terry Cosgrove, president and CEO of Personal PAC told POLITICO, calling it one of the political action committee’s “biggest victories ever.”)

— New York Times Beats Race, Age Discrimination Class Claims (DIERSEN: Rather than fight race discrimination, fight gender discrimination, and/or fight age discrimination, virtually all of my superiors, supervisors, and coworkers in the federal government who were White, male, and/or older, and who were victims of the aforesaid discrimination, “cut deals” to keep their jobs. I should write a book about the aforesaid in GAO’s Chicago office who, to keep their jobs, agreed to help GAO a) waste my career and b) force me to retire in 1997 when I was 49 years old.)
https://news.bloomberglaw.com/class-action/ny-times-beats-race-age-discrimination-class-claims

There are too few employees in each of the proposed classes to justify class status, Judge P. Kevin Castel wrote for the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York. The plaintiffs identified 10 employees for the race class and 24 for the age class.)

FORBES
— If You Don’t Want To Flip Burgers At 67, Do These 10 Things Right Now – Jack Kelly (DIERSEN: What are some of the things that you did to qualify yourself for better paying jobs and to keep those jobs? I earned a) a job-related bachelor’s degree when I was 21 in 1970 and job-related master’s degrees when I was 27, 31, and 48, b) job-related professional certifications when I was 30, 32, 41, 45, 47, and 48, and c) a job-related professional license when I was 32.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: Here is what you should immediately start doing if you are in your late 30s and older: 1. Think critically if your type of work can be done later in life. Does your job have certain physical manual work requirements that have a built in expiration date as you age? Could technology easily disrupt your job? Can your position be relocated? Could a junior (cheaper) person take over your responsibilities with a little training period? Will your job be too taxing and stressful to continue in your 50s, 60s or 70s? 2. If your job doesn’t easily lend itself to working into your sixties, start figuring out a second career right away before it’s too late. 3. Start a side hustle. If it doesn’t work keep trying until something clicks. 4. Consider going back to school to earn a degree which may open some new doors, and offer a new lease on life. 5. Obtain training in a niche area that could lead to a second career. 6. Save and invest as much money as possible to allow you to retire on your own terms. This will be difficult because it requires giving up fancy vacations, flashy cars, and an extravagant lifestyle. 7. If you live in an expensive and high taxed neighborhood, sell your home, move to a lower cost state, and bank the savings. 8. Maybe pivot to a job with the government, education or other sectors that can’t discriminate like the private sector does. 9. Start a side business that is a passion but could also provide a steady stream of income. 10. Don’t bury your head in the sand and pretend that you’ll never grow old.)
— How Much Longer Will You Work? – Sara Zeff Geber
https://www.forbes.com/sites/sarazeffgeber/2018/11/08/how-much-longer-will-you-work/#ba8e51a32d2a
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Are you one of the many baby boomers who have done the math and determined that even with Social Security you have not saved enough money to retire? If so, welcome to a very large club. The Employee Benefits Research Institute (EBRI) and the Federal Reserve estimate the average accumulated wealth for workers in their 50s and 60s is less than $150,000. That amount will surely not support a 30+ year retirement, especially in the coastal areas of the U.S. Most financial advisors are recommending accumulating assets of at least $1million to ensure you will be able to finance your full retirement, including health care costs and care for yourself and your spouse or loved one. If you don’t have quite that much, does it mean you will have to work forever or live in your wealthy cousin’s basement? Probably not, but it depends. First of all, if you are in good health, why do you want to retire? If you aren’t sick of what you are doing, hang in there for a while and accumulate a bit more savings.

In 1980, when I was 31 years old, while I was working for IRS as a GS-12 Step 5 (currently $91,880) Revenue Officer, I applied for a job at GAO. I had almost completed the requirements for a master’s degree in accounting from DePaul, I had passed the CPA examination on my first attempt in 1979, and I had earned an MBA from Loyola in 1976. The Democrats offered me a transfer, but only if I agreed to suffer a $19,203 (26%) pay cut in today’s dollars, that is, a downgrade to GS-9 Step 10. The Democrats who ran GAO would not have forced me to suffer a pay cut to transfer if I had been a Democrat, a minority, a female, and/or a veteran.)

https://www.chicagotribune.com/news/sns-bc-us–media-facing-hostility-20181029-story.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: While President Donald Trump ‘s attacks on the media are usually centered on national outlets like CNN and The New York Times, the attitudes unleashed have filtered down to journalists on the street covering news in local communities across the country. When a president describes the press as enemies of the people, “attitudes shift and the field crews get the brunt of the abuse,” she wrote. “And it’s not just from one side. We get it all the way around, pretty much on a daily basis.” The Radio Television Digital News Association is spreading safety and self-defense tips to journalists, most notably advising limits on the use of one-person news crews. The RTDNA has begun compiling anti-press incidents, like last week when an intruder was shot after kicking down glass doors at Fox’s local station in Washington. The National Press Photographers Association is developing workshops to spread safety advice to its members.)

— Why Not ‘Trump Retirement Accounts’? If you want to cut middle-class taxes, go where the money is: Social Security – Tom Giovanetti (DIERSEN: To get my Civil Service Retirement System (CSRS) pension, I paid 7% of my federal salary into the CSRS.)
https://www.wsj.com/articles/why-not-trump-retirement-accounts-1541025589
(FROM THE ARTICLE: To stir up excitement before the midterms, President Trump last week said he plans to cut middle-class taxes again in the coming year. The trouble is that Republicans have been so successful in cutting taxes in recent years that 44% of Americans no longer pay any federal income tax at all, and many more pay very little. After last year’s tax reform, a family of four earning $80,000 a year could pay as little as $2,300 in income tax: an effective 3% rate. A further 10% cut wouldn’t amount to much. On the other hand, low- and middle-income workers do send the government a large share of their earnings in the form of payroll taxes. That same family of four pays $12,240 at the 15.3% combined rate for Social Security and Medicare. If you want to cut taxes for middle-class and low-income workers, that’s where you have to do it. But instead of an impotent income-tax cut or, say, a payroll-tax cut of 4% of income, why not redirect that same 4% into personal retirement accounts for every worker? Call them “Trump Retirement Accounts.” With no decline in disposable income, American workers would suddenly be investing for retirement at market rates in accounts they own and control, instead of relying on Congress to keep Social Security solvent.)

Knowing that federal retirees and their spouses have lifetime membership in the Federal Employees Health Benefits (FEHB) Program (https://www.opm.gov/healthcare-insurance/healthcare/) helped me endure the many negatives associated with being a federal employee for almost 30 years.)

— Statehouse Democrats have a better than 50 percent chance of winning that supermajority they so want, according to new research. Political forecaster Carl Klarner has factored in a range of data points to determine the probability of victory—Democrat or Republican—in the 5,500 state legislative races nationwide. His analysis shows Illinois Democrats have a 57.4 percent chance of getting 60 percent or more House seats for a veto-proof supermajority. – Shia Kapos

— Placing blame where it belongs
https://capitolfax.com/2018/11/01/placing-blame-where-it-belongs/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: MCQUEARY: “The environment in Illinois politics is telling. Among the least-represented voices in Springfield is that of conservative women. The House and Senate, made up of 177 members, include 61 women of both parties. That number should be higher, but it’s not abysmal. Of those women, the majority are Democrats and mostly lean left. The House right now has only 13 Republican women. The Senate has two. Let me repeat that data point for emphasis: Of the House’s 118 members, 13 are GOP women. Of the Senate’s 59 members, only two are Republican women. If the movement is truly about lifting women, shouldn’t it be focused on raising those numbers? Bringing more capable, opinion-diverse women into the pink-hat pavilion?” MILLER: “As I reminded subscribers earlier today, three Republicans have resigned from the Illinois Senate since the summer of 2017. All three were women and all three women were replaced by men. One of the women who stepped down was Senate Republican Leader Christine Radogno. The Senate Republicans elected a man, Sen. Bill Brady, to replace her. The #MeToo movement is not some top-down political action committee. The Republican Party, particularly in the Illinois Senate, is the entity truly in need of a dressing-down here. After all, they’re the ones who recruit the candidates and they’re the ones who exert influence on local retiree replacement decisions.”)

In addition to her being a Jewish woman, they resented the fact that she was younger, she was attractive, she was wealthy, she was a CPA, she had an MBA from the University of Chicago, and she was Russian-American. They were furious when I got her appointed the board of directors of IIT’s Financial Markets and Trading Master’s Degree Program.)

AMERICAN GREATNESS
— Because We Live Here – Pedro Gonzalez
https://www.amgreatness.com/2018/10/27/because-we-live-here/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: What surges toward the United States from the south is not a “caravan,” it is an invading force. Mothers who take money from leftist activists to drag their children on for thousands of miles in front of cameras are not brave, they are mercenary. Men who tear apart metal barriers and cry, “Donald Trump is the antichrist,” are not “just looking for work,” they are looking for a fight and are daring anyone to stop them. Just as well, I would refer the “free market” fearmongers, who insist that America needs a constant influx of fresh “diversity” as tribute to satiate the Invisible Hand, to Chilton Williamson Jr.: “You could ‘prove’ to me that, without the immediate transference of the entire population of Hong Kong to the state of California, the United States would be in a major economic depression by the middle of next year, and I would still be against transferring it there.” Yet even as we scramble to address the threat before us, another rears its head. There is now a second mob 2,500 strong organizing to march on the United States.)

THE HILL
— President Trump’s war on federal waste – TOM COBURN AND ADAM ANDRZEJEWSKI (DIERSEN: I should write a book about a) those who wasted me and wasted what I learned while I worked for the Post Office 1966-1969, b) those who wasted me and wasted what I learned while I worked for IRS 1971-1980, c) those who wasted me and wasted what I learned while I worked for GAO 1980-1997, d) those who wasted me and wasted what I learned as an Association of Government Accountants Executive Committee member 1983-1996, and e) those who have wasted me and wasted what I learned as a Republican Precinct Committeeman since 1999, as the GOPUSA Illinois Editor since 2000, as the Milton Township Republican Central Committee webmaster 2000-2004 and 2008-2010, as an American Association of Political Consultants Midwest Chapter board member 2001-2004, as an Illinois Center Right Coalition Steering Committee member 2003-2007, as a Wheaton Chamber of Commerce Government Affairs Committee member 2003-2011, and as the TAPROOT Republicans of Illinois chairman 2005-2012.

Those who wasted me and wasted what I learned are Democrats and Democrat plants, Libertarians and Libertarian plants, Greens and Green plants, and RINOs.)

GOPUSA ILLINOIS
— Republican event reports – Dave Diersen
http://www.gopillinois.com
(THE ARTICLE: It would be great if those who host Republican events in Illinois would post reports of their events on their website homepages ASAP after their events and email the hyperlinks to their email lists ASAP and to me ASAP for inclusion in the next GOPUSA ILLINOIS email. But if that is not possible, because I cannot attend every Republican event in Illinois, please urge those who host Republican events in your municipality, in your township/ward, in your county, and in Illinois to email me the following information ASAP after their events:

– Name of event host(s)
– Day, date, and time (morning, afternoon, or evening) of the event
– Event location
– Event type – fundraiser, rally, regular monthly meeting, etc.
– Names & titles of event speakers
– Approximate number of event attendees
– Names of attendees who are past or present candidates, elected officials, and party leaders in last name alphabetical order
– Name and phone number of person who provides the above information

Thanks.)
