— State senator joins select group of Democrats insisting Madigan give up speaker’s gavel now: ‘It is clearly time for a change’ While other Democrats have issued conditional calls for Madigan to resign only if charged or convicted, North Side state Sen.

https://www.chicagotribune.com/columns/john-kass/ct-cancel-culture-kass-20200729-chokjsdvezbtbokgwy2bc76nty-story.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The angry left-handed broom of America’s cultural revolution uses fear to sweep through the our civic, corporate and personal life. It brings with it attempted intimidation, shame and the usual demands for ceremonies of public groveling. It is happening in newsrooms in New York, Philadelphia, Los Angeles. And now it’s coming for me, in an attempt to shame me into silence. Here’s what happened: Last week, with violence spiking around the country, I wrote a column on the growing sense of lawlessness in America’s urban areas. In response, the Tribune newspaper union, the Chicago Tribune Guild, which I have repeatedly and politely declined to join, wrote an open letter to management defaming me, by falsely accusing me of religious bigotry and fomenting conspiracy theories. Newspaper management has decided not to engage publicly with the union. So I will.)

FREEDOM’S JOURNAL
— IS RACISM RESPONSIBLE FOR TODAY’S BLACK PROBLEMS? – Walter E. Williams (DIERSEN: I should write a book about my critics/opponents who work the hardest a) to destroy traditional marriage and b) to destroy the traditional family, that is, I should write a book about my critics/opponents who work the hardest a) to promote LGBTQ and hatred of heterosexual men and b) to destroy individuals, organizations, companies, governments, and countries that do not promote LGBTQ and hate heterosexual men.)
https://freedomsjournalinstitute.org/uncategorized/is-racism-responsible-for-todays-black-problems/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The most devastating problem is the very weak black family structure. Less than a third of black children live in two-parent households and illegitimacy stands at 75%. The “legacy of slavery” is often blamed. Such an explanation turns out to be sheer nonsense when one examines black history. Even during slavery, where marriage was forbidden, most black children lived in biological two-parent families. Professor Herbert G. Gutman’s research in “The Black Family in Slavery and Freedom 1750-1925” found that in three-fourths of 19th-century slave families, all the children had the same mother and father. In New York City, in 1925, 85% of black households were two-parent. In fact, “Five in six children under the age of six lived with both parents.” During slavery and as late as 1920, a black teenage girl raising a child without a man present was a rarity. An 1880 study of family structure in Philadelphia shows that three-quarters of all black families were nuclear families. There were only slight differences in family structure between racial groups. The percentages of nuclear families were: black (75.2%), Irish (82.2%), German (84.5%), and native white Americans (73.1%). Only one-quarter of black families were female-headed. Female-headed families among Irish, German, and native white Americans averaged 11%. According to the 1938 Encyclopaedia of the Social Sciences, only 11% of black children and 3% of white children were born to unwed mothers. As Thomas Sowell reported: “Going back a hundred years, when blacks were just one generation out of slavery, we find that census data of that era showed that a slightly higher percentage of black adults had married than white adults. This fact remained true in every census from 1890 to 1940.” The absence of a father in the home predisposes children, especially boys, to academic failure, criminal behavior, and economic hardship, not to mention an intergenerational repeating of handicaps. If today’s weak family structure is a legacy of slavery, then the people who make such a claim must tell us how it has managed to skip nearly five generations to have an effect.)

— AS THE DEMOCRAT PARTY’S STRANGLEHOLD ON CHICAGO TIGHTENS: ‘I Can’t Believe We Survived,’ Uber Driver Says After He Was Attacked By Large Group Of Teens Downtown – Jermont Terry
https://chicago.cbslocal.com/2020/07/20/i-cant-believe-we-survived-uber-driver-says-after-he-was-attacked-by-large-group-of-teens-downtown/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: “I can’t believe we survived” – those are the words of a terrified Uber driver who was caught in the middle of hundreds of teens getting pushed through the downtown area by Chicago Police. As CBS 2’s Jermont Terry reported, the driver had to jump the curb and then go the wrong way down Washington Street on the sidewalk just to escape the group, which targeted him at a red light. On Monday night, the attack was raising bigger questions about what is being done to handle those rowdy teens on weekends. Standing on the corner of Wabash Avenue and Washington Street brings back horrible memories for the Uber driver. “I’m just scared, and it’s going to take a while to regain the trust of the city, I guess,” he said. The driver is fearful after his Kia ended up getting each and every window busted out – all by a group of teens who were getting ushered by police from Millennium Park on July 4th weekend. “I knew they were coming I said, ‘Oh f***, and so they came and jumped on the car and started dancing around on the hood,” he said. But the driver said some in the crowd turned violent and tried opening the doors. What happened next had the driver and his two passengers in disbelief. “And then they broke in the driver window, and that’s where I knew we were in big trouble, because they were trying to grab me, and I heard the back rear window shatter as well,” he said. A pitchfork crashed through the rear window, coming within inches of his Uber passengers. “Who knows what would have happened if they were able to pull us out of the vehicle? It seem like they wanted blood,” he said. “It’s terrifying just to think that there’s just basically a school a piranhas just roaming the streets of Chicago, and we don’t know where they’re going to show up.” CBS 2 first exposed how these groups of 300 to 400 have roamed the Loop and downtown for consecutive Saturdays. The CPD said it has tactical units ready to deal with the crowds. But with teens turning violent, many are concerned it will only get worse.)

CHICAGO TRIBUNE

https://www.chicagotribune.com/nation-world/ct-nw-st-louis-couple-charged-mark-patricia-mccloskey-20200720-trwnxyn4qvet5dmrgovjawpwce-story.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Several Republican leaders have condemned Gardner’s investigation, including President Donald Trump, Missouri Gov. Mike Parson and Sen. Josh Hawley, who has urged Attorney General William Barr to undertake a civil rights investigation of Gardner. Parson said in a radio interview Friday that he would likely pardon the couple if they were charged and convicted. Missouri Attorney General Eric Schmitt said in a statement Monday that he filed a brief requesting that the charges be dismissed under the state’s Castle Doctrine. “The right to keep and bear arms is given the highest level of protection in our constitution and our laws, including the Castle Doctrine,” Schmitt said in the statement. “This provides broad rights to Missourians who are protecting their property and lives from those who wish to do them harm.” Sen. Josh Hawley, R-MO, said on Twitter that the charges were an “unacceptable abuse of power and threat to the Second Amendment.” He called for a federal civil rights investigation into the St. Louis Circuit Attorney’s Office to “determine whether this investigation and impending prosecution violates this family’s constitutional rights.” Gardner said Trump, Parson and others are attacking her to distract from “their failed approach to the COVID-19 pandemic” and other issues.)

https://www.bizpacreview.com/2020/07/20/michelle-malkin-violently-attacked-by-blm-antifa-in-denver-sends-s-o-s-to-trump-949089
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Outspoken conservative firebrand Michelle Malkin was attacked Sunday by Black Lives Matter activists intent ion shutting down a “Back the Blue” rally in Denver. The peaceful pro-police event was underway at Civic Center Park when BLM activists and others wearing black-bloc and armed with collapsible batons — Malkin identified them online as Antifa — crashed the stage. Malkin can be heard in video of the attack screaming at the violent mob to get back. Not mincing words, she called the woman attacking them “b*tches” in a tweet, and said she was sprayed in the face with aerosol string and another man was beaten with a longboard. Video of the incident shows aggressive antagonists being allowed to walk right up to the very edge of the stage. Malkin shared a photo of the man she said was beaten by the mob. Malkin noted that police sat idly by doing nothing as the chaos ensued. According to the Denver Post, police “attempted to form a line around the two groups, but could not completely separate them.” The newspaper also said Denver Police Chief Paul Pazen asked the group “to reschedule or move the pro-police rally.” Malkin tweeted: “Denver Police Chief Pazen, who marched with BLM last month, let pro-police patriots get beaten and silenced.” In addition to BLM, the counter-demonstrators included the Party for Socialism and Liberation and the Afro-Liberation Front, according to KMGH-TV. The ABC affiliate reported the mob was “armed with pots and pans, whistles, hand-held sirens and other noise making gear,” and that they “crashed the Pro-Police rally and drowned out those trying to speak.” Almost reluctantly, KMGH-TV acknowledged that there were “a few scuffles between members of the two groups.” “There’s not much else to say other than every cop here is a terrorist by association,” Black Lives Matter supporter Hale Rardin told the station. Malkin took exception to how the local reporter she responded to above, KUSA-TV reporter Kyle Clark, tried to painted a “moral equivalency” between the peaceful pro-police group and the violent BLM mob attacking them. Pepper balls and a can of pepper spray were later deployed to disperse BLM activists, after police say some people “made aggressive moves” toward officers. In a somewhat foreboding wrap up, Malkin tweeted: “I’m ok. America is not.” An assessment that has merit, given the radical lawlessness seen from the left today, who intend to shut down all speech not in line with their hard-left views and are more than willing to use violence to do so, if necessary. This coming as law enforcement has been cast as the bad guys in America by both the Democratic Party and their media allies, emasculated and beaten back on their heels. Here’s a full-length Periscope video of the rally shared by Malkin — note that she also tagged President Trump, sending an SOS to restore law and order in American streets:)

My father fought type 1 diabetes from age 14, he worked in the office of a nasty chemical plant in Chicago Heights, he almost always worked second jobs to pay the family’s bills, he did not buy a new car until he was 45 in 1967 and it was a bottom of the line 2-door Chevy, and he died suddenly of heart failure in 1969 when I was 21 years old.)

Smith (DIERSEN: I transferred from IRS to GAO in 1980 when I was 31 year old a) because my Democrat IRS superiors had made it clear that they would never promote me to GS-13 and b) because GAO audits IRS, and I could use my knowledge of IRS on audits of IRS that I had gained working for IRS for almost 9 years, the last 5 1/2 years of which at the GS-12 Step 1-5 levels, currently $85,084-$96,431/year. But my Democrat GAO superiors succeeded in a) keeping me off audits of IRS 1980-1985, b) stopping me from being promoted to GS-13 until 1986, c) keeping me off audits of IRS after 1988, and d) forcing me to take their early retirement “offer” in 1997 when I was 49 years old. They would not have done that if I had been a Democrat, minority, female, and/or veteran. After I transferred from IRS to GAO in 1980, I a) completed the requirements for a master’s degree in accounting from DePaul in 1980, b) passed the Certified Internal Auditor examination on my first attempt in 1981, c) became a licensed CPA in 1981, d) became a Certified Fraud Examiner in 1990, e) became a Certified Government Financial Manager in 1994, f) became a Certified Financial Services Auditor in 1996, g) became a Forensic Accountant in 1997, and h) completed the requirements for a master’s degree in financial markets and trading from IIT in 1997.)

KENDALL COUNTY NOW
— OUTSTANDING: Kendall County GOP hosts campaign rally at Town Square Park – SHEA LAZANSKY (DIERSEN: Hopefully, the officers of Republican township, ward, and county party organizations across Illinois will be hosting such rallies. If I was still the chairman of TAPROOT Republicans of Illinois, the organization would be hosting such rallies. But I acknowledge that Democrats and Democrat plants, Libertarians and Libertarian plants, Greens and Green plants, and RINOs would continue to discourage attendance at such rallies.)
https://www.kendallcountynow.com/2020/07/11/kendall-county-gop-hosts-campaign-rally-at-town-square-park/dnhg5fq/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Thunder and lightning didn’t stop Kendall County Republicans from gathering in Yorkville’s Town Square Park Saturday afternoon for a campaign rally for area candidates and a chance to show their support for law enforcement and the military. Oswego resident and Republican precinct committeeman Jason Hudson helped to coordinate and organize the event for the Kendall County chapter of the Republican Party. The rally, he said, was intended to give officers and veterans a moment of recognition. “We see so many counter protests, shaming our police departments. I wanted to do a rally saying, ‘Hey look, we support our police, we support our veterans’,” Hudson said. “We all know that all the police aren’t bad, they keep us safe and protect us. Yes there are bad apples within the bunch, but the group is really great…more people are good cops than there are bad cops.” Hudson and the Kendall County Republicans did ask that the news of the rally not be publicized in advance. When asked to explain that action, Hudson said that he thought it would be a ” good idea to keep this down low.” “The people on the left, they don’t really want to come out and have a discussion about this,” Hudson said. “Had we had a counter protester here, I would have given them two minutes on the stage. “The last thing we want is for somebody to come out here and incite any kind of violence or anything like that. We’re peaceful. If somebody were to set up across the street from us and have a counter protest and they wanted to come over here and speak, we’ll give them two minutes, as long as they’re reasonable.” “We all have common grounds,” Hudson said. “We all want to raise our kids, we all want to have safe streets, we all hate racism…we all have that in agreement. It’s just a matter of coming together and communicating about it.” Several candidates for state and federal office spoke at the rally, touching on points like the COVID-19 pandemic, Black Lives Matter protests, supporting law enforcement and the military, and the 2020 election. “Battle lines have been clearly drawn,” State Senator Jim Oberweis (R-25) told the crowd. Oberweis is running for the position of U.S. Representative against incumbent Lauren Underwood. Oberweis called a growing movement to defund police departments, “A direct assault on our country and our values.” While Oberweis stated his support for peaceful protests, he acknowledged that “bad actors” have turned the rallies across the country violent. “The answer to the violent and wrongful death of George Floyd is not more violence,” Oberweis said, “And it certainly isn’t defunding the police. “We need to take steps to heal this nation and address radical discrimination. But we do not need to adopt radical policies like defunding the police.” State leaders’ response to the coronavirus pandemic was also a hot topic for speakers. State Representative David Welter (R-75), campaigning for re-election, called out the actions of “King” Pritzker, in his response to the pandemic. Welter highlighted several lawsuits in various phases throughout the state, challenging Governor JB Pritzker’s actions over the past several months. “Small business owners, churches, different individuals and organizations trying to save their livelihood, trying to get by, and we continue to have a governor who is trying to make it as difficult as possible,” Welter said. “The Democrats want to tell us that it’s okay to riot, but it’s not okay to open our business. They want to tell us it’s okay to riot, but it’s not okay to praise God, to go to church,” Tom McCullagh, state senate candidate for the 49th district said. McCullagh, who touted his distribution of face shields to first responders, also reminded the crowd to pay attention to the status of several lawsuits against Pritzker’s coronavirus response. Jeanette Ward, running to fill Oberweis’ seat, also criticized the governor’s response to the pandemic, comparing his behavior to that of a “Socialist dictator.” “His unconstitutional mandate was supposed to end after 30 days, and it was defeated in court last week,” she said. “Yet he still keeps on making rules and laws as if he was a socialist dictator.” “If you are not free to enter public spaces and go shopping without a face covering, you are not free. If you are not free to hold church services and worship God while abortion clinics continue their murderous spree, you are not free,” Ward told the crowd. “If you aren’t opening your business to the public without government permission, you are not free. If you’re not free to take your children to public playgrounds that you pay for, you are not free. If you’re not free to send your children to school, paid for with your money, and allow them to play freely with other children, you are not free.” “It’s amazing to me how ‘my body, my choice’ only applies to certain things. That’s only if you want to kill the unborn,” she said. “2020 is not just a fight for the heart and soul of Illinois,” McCullagh reminded the crowd during his remarks. “It’s a fight for the heart and soul of our country.”)

DAILY HERALD
— DIERSEN HEADLINE: Ever-increasingly, discrimination in past is blamed for the problems that minorities have today. Did your parents, your grandparents, your great grandparents, or any of the rest of your ancestors discriminate against minorities? Mine did not. But nevertheless, my Democrat superiors in federal government made me pay the price of Affirmative Action (AA), Diversity, and Inclusion. None of my ancestors attended college. My father was the first of his ancestors to earn a high school diploma. My mother never attended high school. My great grandparents were farmers in Grant Park and Crete. My grandparents on my father’s side operated a hardware store in Crete. My grandparents on my mother’s side operated a farm in Grant Park. My father worked in the office of a nasty chemical plant in Chicago Heights. After my father died, my mother worked in a dental office in Crete. What if AA, Diversity, and Inclusion were only for those whose parents did not have a college degree?

(FROM THE ARTICLE: In recent days, more and more large companies are boycotting Facebook as part of a growing protest that claims the social media platform hasn’t done enough to prevent the spread of hate speech. . .A civil rights coalition that includes the Anti-Defamation League (ADL) and the NAACP launched the #StopHateforProfit campaign last week, calling on major corporations to put a pause on advertising on Facebook. Their reasoning is the social media giant’s “repeated failure to meaningfully address the vast proliferation of hate on its platforms.”)
