November 13 Morning Edition

ROLL CALL
— Rep. Adam Kinzinger ‘Disgusted’ By Trump Mocking Unseated Republicans ‘Some of them lost because people, frankly, were voting against the president,’ GOP congressman says – Emily Kopp (DIERSEN: Democrats won on November 6, 2018 because of  Democrat success in a) promoting hatred against Trump and b) getting voters to punish Trump by voting for Democrats.)
https://www.rollcall.com/news/politics/rep-adam-kinzinger-disgusted-by-trump-mocking-unseated-republicans
(FROM THE ARTICLE: As President Donald Trump the day after Election Day read off a list of defeated Republicans whose losses he attributed to not embracing his endorsement on the campaign trail, Illinois Republican Rep. Adam Kinzinger watched in disgust. “I wish the president had shown some more grace in that and said ‘Thank you for your service,’ instead of ‘It’s because you didn’t back me,’” the 16th District congressman said in an interview with CNN Tuesday. “I was very disgusted when I heard that.” Last week Trump identified Carlos Curbelo, Mike Coffman, Peter Roskam, Erik Paulsen, Bob Hugin, John Faso and Mia Love as candidates who “didn’t want the embrace.” Kinzinger made a different case: That some of those candidates suffered losses in a wave of backlash to the White House. “Some of them lost because people, frankly, were voting against the president,” he said. Kinzinger’s critique follows similar comments by retiring Republican Rep. Ryan Costello of Pennsylvania, who likened the president’s chiding words to “dancing on somebody’s grave.” Costello declined to run for reelection this cycle, facing tough political realities in his district. Costello also placed the blame for the party’s losses squarely on the president’s shoulders. He said even candidates who eschewed Trump on the campaign trail should be credited with advancing the White House’s policy agenda. “The president should be thanking them for putting up the tough votes,” he said last week.)

 

CHICAGO TRIBUNE
— DIERSEN HEADLINE: Anti-Trumps promote Michelle Obama’s book.
https://www.chicagotribune.com/lifestyles/books/ct-books-becoming-michelle-obama-1113-story.html
(FROM THE PROMOTION: Michelle Obama manages to be inspirational, direct and naive about race and gender politics. She wonders after the 2016 election “about what led so many women, in particular, to reject an exceptionally qualified female candidate and instead choose a misogynist as their president.” The misclassification is glaring: More than 90 percent of black women voted for Hillary Clinton, but more than half of white women voted for Trump. But now, her life in politics is over. No, Michelle Obama will not run for office. The attendant “nastiness” and “tribal segregation” of the political climate soured her to the prospect. Obama names her husband’s successor fewer than a dozen times over 426 pages, but her loathing is clear. His lies about President Obama’s birthplace were “deliberately meant to stir up the wingnuts and kooks,” she writes. “What if someone with an unstable mind loaded a gun and drove to Washington? … Donald Trump, with his loud and reckless innuendos, was putting my family’s safety at risk. And for this, I’d never forgive him.” Again, she saw what was coming. In November 2011, a man who had said Obama “needed to be shot” fired a semi-automatic rifle at the White House. Bullets hit a window, a window frame and the roof. “Becoming” was finished before a white nationalist killed 11 people in a Pittsburgh synagogue in October — and before a registered Republican and fan of Hitler allegedly sent pipe bombs to CNN, 12 high-profile Democrats and Trump critics this fall. Yet one can sense Obama’s disappointment, as the pendulum of progressiveness and inclusivity swung to a nation pocked with white nationalists, neo-Nazis, alt-righters who welcomed a bullier-in-chief into the White House.)

https://www.chicagotribune.com/news/local/breaking/ct-met-michelle-obama-visit-20181112-story.html
(FROM THE PROMOTION: As she often does, Obama leaned on her personal narrative to encourage the teenagers to find their voices and use them. Rather than condemn systemic inequality, structural racism and gender bias, Obama told the students they could win allies by first acknowledging to themselves that their unique experiences are their strengths. “It’s important for you guys, that when you are at the table, you bring your full voice,” she told them. Obama subtly commented on issues she’s rarely talked about publicly before. “You think there are certain voices that are more important than others,” she said. “And they look a certain way, they have a certain title. That gets us into a lot of trouble, when we measure people just by what I call people’s stats, and not their story,” she said.)

— ‘I’m not the Resistance, I’m a reporter’: An Interview with April Ryan – Claudia Dreifus (DIERSEN: Diersen says “I am not an operative or a dupe for anyone, I am a reporter.” While Ryan promotes the Democrat Party platform, I promote the Republican Party platform.)
https://www.nybooks.com/daily/2018/11/12/im-not-the-resistance-im-a-reporter-an-interview-with-april-ryan/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: At the top of Donald Trump’s journalistic enemies list is April Ryan, the fifty-one-year-old American Urban Radio Networks correspondent. Ryan—who has covered the presidency for more than two decades—is also an on-air political analyst for CNN and the author of three books, including the recently released Under Fire: Reporting from the Front Lines of the Trump White House. Around Washington, D.C., Ryan holds the title “Dean of the White House Press Corps.” “I watched her get up,” the president fumed last week before departing for Paris. “I mean, you talk about somebody that’s a loser. She doesn’t know what the hell she’s doing… She’s very nasty, and she shouldn’t be… You’ve got to treat the White House and the Office of the Presidency with respect.” What Trump may find disrespectful is that Ryan has a penchant for asking tough questions on topics he’d doesn’t want to hear about: voter suppression, civil rights, Russia. Ryan is also black, female, middle-aged, and resolute. In January 2018, she asked, “Mr. President, are youa racist?” This boldness has made Ryan the target of Trump’s more ardent followers. She receives frequent death threats. On a reporter’s salary, she’s had to hire a full-time bodyguard. There are reports that Cesar Sayoc Jr., who is accused of sending pipe bombs to Hillary Clinton, George Soros, Barack Obama, and others, also had Ryan on his mailing list. We spoke for two hours in New York City in the early fall, and then again, twice after the November 6 election, by telephone. An edited and condensed version of the conversations follows.)

Will the IRP dump Uihlein and his money and seek/take money from those who promote LGBTQ activity, abortion, mass/illegal immigration, abolition of the Second Amendment, booze, gambling, pot, and other vices, patronage, political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, age discrimination, and even worse things?)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: Illinois Democrats’ takeover of every level of government has the Illinois Republican Party is taking stock on how to shift gears. The way Pat Brady sees it, the Illinois GOP needs an “autopsy” similar to what the national GOP underwent in 2012 when Mitt Romney lost to President Barack Obama. “We need to get back to the party of Reagan, a party that appeals to a broad spectrum,” he told POLITICO. That would mean having to pull back from the politics of Dick Uihlein, the business magnate who supported conservatives across the country during this past election season, including Alabama Republican U.S. Senate candidate Roy Moore—who was accused of sexually assaulting teens when he was in his 30s. Uihlein lives in Wisconsin but has been an influence on GOP politics in Illinois, funneling $8.5 million to the Liberty Principles PAC and to conservative gubernatorial candidate Jeanne Ives (who lost to Bruce Rauner in the primary). Brady and others say the Illinois GOP would do better to stop focusing on social issues like gay marriage, especially as more young people and women get involved in the voting process. GOP state Rep. Dave McSweeney also points to the missteps of Republican Gov. Bruce Rauner. “ We have a massive tax hike, out of control spending, a big unpaid backlog of bills—and we have fewer Republican General Assembly members,” he told POLITICO. “We’re worse off than when he came in.” McSweeney says Republicans need to follow Democrats’ political tactics: Run a grassroots GOTV campaign. “This wasn’t a policy victory,” he said, referring to J.B. Pritzker’s rout over Rauner. “Pritzker ran on a vague platform. What he and Democrats did was get out the vote.”)

https://www.aol.com/article/finance/2018/11/12/how-trumps-tax-cuts-hurt-the-gop-in-americas-wealthy-suburbs/23587443/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Proponents of the tax bill say the SALT cap, which tends to benefit the wealthier, will still be offset by a now-doubled standard deduction. Republican Peter Roskam, one of the key members of the tax-writing House Ways and Means Committee, heavily advertised how a larger standard deduction would simplify the tax filing to the size of a postcard. Roskam ended up losing his seat in Illinois’s 6th congressional district, where Democratic challenger Sean Casten took to Medium.com to attack Roskam and the Trump tax cuts. “Peter Roskam likes to hype his position on the Ways and Means committee to convince you he knows more about tax policy and you do,” Casten wrote. “It’s all a lie.” With Roskam gone, the Republican side of the tax-writing House Ways and Means Committee looks thin on members who helped drive the tax reform bill. Three of the six subcommittee members did not run for reelection.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: My friends and I turned 50 this year. There is a group of about 11 of us from college who get together once a year to relive our glory days and catch up on each other’s lives. Over the last couple of years, five out of the 11 have lost jobs. Losing a job when you’re in your late 40s to early 50s can be financially devastating. Those are the prime earning years and the time when a person can really start putting away for retirement and catch up if the nest egg wasn’t built large enough in their 20s and 30s. A layoff or termination after 25 years of building a career can really set a person back. The likelihood that such a person will find work at the same pay level becomes more remote. At the same time, greater financial obligations like educating kids, preparing for retirement, or caring for parents come to the forefront.)

— Pinocchio Rauner’s Staffer Tells Conservatives to Abandon All Hope, Ye Who Enter the GOP – Laurie Higgins
https://illinoisfamilyaction.org/2018/11/pinocchio-rauners-staffer-tells-conservatives-to-abandon-all-hope-ye-who-enter-the-gop/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: A former staffer for Pinocchio Rauner wasted no time telling conservatives to abandon all hope. In a commentary appearing in Friday’s Chicago Tribune, Patrick Wohl tried to scare the Illinois GOP away from any rightward movement. Scaremonger Wohl ominously warned, “The Illinois GOP needs unity, not a race to the right.” That’s code language for “Abandon the social issues, you idiot right-wing lunatics!” How about this for a revision: “The Illinois GOP needs unity on the entire GOP platform, not abandonment of the parts of it ignorant RINOs and Libertarians don’t like.” Wohl describes Jeanne Ives‘ candidacy as “undoubtedly the first foray into this impending debacle” of moving the party rightward. Wohl suggests we look at the only kind of Republicans he claims can get elected in Illinois, from “Bruce Rauner to Mark Kirk to Judy Baar Topinka to Jim Edgar.” But why is that? Could it be that people like Wohl and Pat Brady relentlessly tell conservatives that they must sacrifice their beliefs on the altar of party unity, while never telling RINO and Libertarian-leaning Republicans to sacrifice their beliefs on the “social issues” for the sake of unity? (Interesting sidenote: former GOP Governor Jim Edgar is an official member of the JB Pritker transition team.) Maybe the fact that millennial Wohl previously worked for Rand Paul‘s and Eric Greiten‘s campaigns tells us something about his view of unifying around RINO positions.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: In a memo to agency leaders, Weichert acknowledged that provisions making it easier to fire federal employees, setting time limits on collective bargaining negotiations, and restricting grievances and the use of official time were ruled unlawful by U.S. District Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson last summer. But she encouraged agencies to continue to pursue the spirit of those executive orders in their ongoing negotiations for new contracts with federal employee unions.)

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.)

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
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The New York Times Co. convinced a federal court Nov. 8 that employee allegations of race and age discrimination can’t be certified as a class action. 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. If you are chomping at the bit to leave your current employer or stop doing whatever draws a 1099 at the end of the year, then it may be time to consider what else you might want to do that would still earn a paycheck and be more aligned with your current interests and values.)

CHICAGO CITY WIRE
— How will Illinois’ political journalists vote on Tuesday? We have a guess. – LGIS News Service (DIERSEN: LGIS News Service DOES NOT CONSIDER ME TO BE A POLITICAL JOURNALIST.  My GOPUSA ILLINOIS emails drive lots of traffic to websites owned by LGIS News Service. I have been the GOPUSA Illinois Editor since 2000. Since 2004, I have sent out a GOPUSA ILLINOIS email each and every morning. Since 2015, I have also sent out a GOPUSA ILLINOIS email each and every evening. Since 2004, those emails have included links to more than 317,000 articles and information about many upcoming events. What do you say to my critics/opponents who state that they are religious, conservative, and/or Republican, but who hint/imply/argue/shout that I AM NOT A POLITICAL JOURNALIST? Most commonly, to discredit me and to discredit my emails, they stress that no one pays me for what I do as the GOPUSA Illinois Editor, that GOPUSA ILLINOIS email subscriptions are free, that the emails contain no advertising or pictures, that I am a Republican Precinct Committeeman, and that I do not have a degree in journalism. I should write a book about my critics/opponents. They a) reject planks in the Republican Party platform and/or the Illinois Republican Party platform, most commonly, the traditional family, right to life, immigration, illegal drugs, Second Amendment, and equal opportunity (no race or gender based preference giving) planks, and work against those like me who support those planks, b) reject the Milton Township Republican Central Committee resolution against video gambling and work against those like me who support that resolution, c) focus on destroying those like me who they cannot manipulate/dominate, d) were defendants in lawsuits that I have filed, and/or e) are operatives or dupes for the aforesaid.)
https://chicagocitywire.com/stories/511621503-how-will-illinois-political-journalists-vote-on-tuesday-we-have-a-guess
(FROM THE ARTICLE: If Illinois’ political journalists were the only ones voting on Tuesday, J.B. Pritzker, Mike Madigan and the rest of the state’s Democrats would win in a landslide. Chicago City Wire analysis of the primary voting records of 100 leading Illinois political journalists found that 93 percent of the primary votes they’ve collectively cast have been for Democrats, versus just seven percent for Republicans. All told, out of 424 total primary votes recorded by the Illinois State Board of Elections (ISBE), 395 of them were for Democrats. In the March 2018 primary, 57 of the 100 journalists reviewed voted in the Democrat primary. One, Fox 32 Political Editor Mike Flannery, voted in the Republican one. Of the 100 journalist voting records analyzed, 79 had cast more Democrat ballots than Republican ones and 18 recorded no primary votes. One journalist cast an equal number of Democrat and Republican ballots, and two cast more ballots for Republicans than Democrats. Those two are Capitol Fax’s Rich Miller (5 GOP / 4 DEM) and Doug Finke, a veteran reporter of the Springfield State Journal-Register (1/0). Miller, who founded the popular Capitol Fax newsletter in 1993, voted in Democrat primaries in 1994, 1996 and 1998, then Republican ones in 2000, 2010, 2012, 2014, and 2016 before pulling a Democrat primary ballot again this past March. Finke has cast one primary ballot since 1992, in a four-way 2006 Republican primary that included State Treasurer Judy Baar Topinka, Jim Oberweis, Bill Brady and Ron Gidwitz. Topinka won 38 percent of the primary vote before falling to incumbent Democrat Rod Blagojevich in the general election. . .How do your favorite Illinois political journalists vote in primary elections? Chicago City Wire analyzed the voting records of 100 of the state’s top politics and government journalists to test the conventional wisdom. Are they really Democrat-leaning?)

Of course, their purpose to get information a) to justify their wasting my career, b) to justify their taking adverse actions against me, and c) to justify forcing me to take their early retirement “offer.” They most frequently asked me questions to confirm my support for the traditional family, right to life, immigration, illegal drugs, Second Amendment, and equal opportunity (no race or gender based preference giving) planks in the Republican Party platform.)

LOS ANGELES TIMES
— To measure the real base of California’s Republican support, look no further than Trump’s approval numbers – John Myers (DIERSEN: What are Trump’s approval numbers in your precinct, in your municipality, in your township/ward, in your county, and in Illinois? What do you say to Republican candidates in districts that have low Trump approval numbers a) who dump Trump to get elected/reelected and b) who dump Trump supporters like me to get elected/reelected?)
http://www.latimes.com/politics/la-pol-ca-california-republicans-2018-election-analysis-20181105-story.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: To calculate the size of the Republican base, just look at the president’s job-approval number. Find that loyal Trump supporter, goes the logic, and you’re looking at a voter who will stick with Republican candidates through hell or high water. That number, according to a recent poll, is about 39% of statewide likely voters. The nonpartisan Public Policy Institute of California found that this core group of GOP voters is centered among the ranks of white male voters. Many live near San Diego or in the Central Valley. Most are registered Republicans, though some are unaffiliated “independent” voters. Many attended college but didn’t leave with a degree. Given the animus of the state’s elected officials toward Trump’s policies, 39% support for the president among likely California voters is a reasonably strong showing. (And it’s worth noting that the president’s job approval is much lower among all adults — another example of how the electorate doesn’t accurately reflect the state as a whole.) It’s less uplifting, though, for a Republican who’s trying to win statewide office. Trump may have helped reveal the contours of the party’s base, but his reputation could also create a shatterproof ceiling come election day.)

Will the blamers succeed in banishing from the IRP all those who support the aforesaid planks? Will the blamers succeed in dissolving the IRP?)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: “White House political director Bill Stepien wrote a three-page memo this week in which he outlined the political landscape confronting the GOP and bluntly warned that the party’s prospects for the House are ‘challenging.’ … [I]n the memo, Stepien attempted to divert blame from Trump toward several other factors that he said made a ‘traditionally challenging year even more difficult.’)

— You’ve Been Offered a Great New Job, but Is It Worth a Pay Cut? – Rob Walker (DIERSEN: I should write a book about taking pay cuts. GAO audits IRS. 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.)

— FRONT PAGE TOP OF FOLD WITH GRAPHIC: The Yawning Divide That Explains American Politics Two groups of voters—white women with college degrees and white men without—have moved drastically in opposite directions, the WSJ/NBC poll shows – Aaron Zitner and Dante Chinni (DIERSEN: What percent of the voters in your precinct are “white women with college degrees.” There are many in my precinct, and tragically, anti-Trumps have been extremely successful in getting them to hate those who are Trump supporters, Protestant, conservative, patriotic, Republican, American, White, male, older, rich, gun owners, German American, draft avoiders, and those whose ancestors have been in America for a long time.)

https://www.wsj.com/articles/the-yawning-divide-that-explains-american-politics-1540910719
— DIERSEN HEADLINE: Democrats want immigrants because immigrants vote for Democrats. RINOs want immigrants because RINOs want cheap labor.
https://www.wsj.com/articles/rewriting-the-fourteenth-amendment-1540939660
— DIERSEN HEADLINE: Ever-increasingly, the longer that your ancestors have been in America, the harder that anti-Trumps work to bring in immigrants to get rid of you.

FORBES
— The Problem With 25% Of Working Mother 100 Best Companies – Mary Beth Ferrante (DIERSEN: Are you a White male? Did you avoid the draft? My critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes have always hinted/implied/argued/shouted that I have always had a tremendous unfair advantage in life because I am a White male and because I avoided the draft, and therefore, b) I should pay the price of Affirmative Action, Diversity, and Inclusion.)
https://www.forbes.com/sites/marybethferrante/2018/10/30/the-problem-with-25-of-working-mother-100-best-companies/#5d56e4ad3134
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Here’s the bad news. There is something appalling absent in 25% of these 100 Best Companies: they have less than eight weeks of paid parental leave. After further investigation, I discovered the requirement to be considered on the top 100 list is only one week of paid leave. I was shocked.)

With one week to go, every campaign in the company is kicking into high gear, including JB “Toilets” Pritzker record ad spending, Bruce Rauner’s “Unholy Union,” and President Trump’s rally tour of the country. Plus, should elected officials be able to run for re-election & a new office at the same time?)

— Would a ‘mansion tax’ to fight homelessness turn off high-end buyers? High-end buyers would pay tens of thousands of dollars to help fight homelessness under a proposal being introduced at a Chicago City Council meeting this week. Brokers worry about the effect on the luxury market. – DENNIS RODKIN (DIERSEN: Do/did you own a “mansion?” To demonize, denigrate, and condemn my wife and I as being selfish undeservedly filthy rich DINKs (dual income, no kids), my Democrat IRS and GAO and superiors, supervisors, coworkers, and subordinates painted as being “mansions” 1017 East Harrison that we bought in Wheaton in 1978 and 915 Cove Court that we had built in Wheaton in 1984. Previously, they painted as being “mansions” the one bedroom condo in the Outer Drive East building that I bought in 1976, the studio condo that I bought in that building in 1974, and the new town home that I bought in University Park in 1972.)

WIRE POINTS
— Illinois Speech Police Have A New Bill Pending – Mark Glennon (DIERSEN: Will Martwick argue that by reading GOPUSA ILLINOIS emails without paying for them, you are accepting an in-kind contribution? GOPUSA ILLINOIS email subscriptions are worth at least $1,000 a year. Given that, individual GOPUSA ILLINOIS emails are worth at least $1.37 ($1,000 divided by 730).)
http://www.wirepoints.com/illinois-speech-police-have-a-new-bill-pending-quicktake/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: How far has respect for freedom of speech sunk? How unaware are some Illinois lawmakers about constitutional protection for speech? House Bill 5977, now pending in the Illinois General Assembly, informs us. The bill would provide that any expenditure made by a news publication or an entity that owns a news publication for the purpose of supporting or opposing a public official or candidate shall be treated as an in-kind contribution for the purposes of the Illinois Election Code. “Expenditure” does not include normal publication costs associated with a news story, commentary, or editorial, but does include costs associated with advertising related to a particular news story, commentary, or editorial. Think about that. Wirepoints certainly would be considered a “news entity.” So would countless other publications beyond traditional media, such as Huffington Post, Politico and dozens of others, including many with a particular ideological bent. Now, suppose we write a glowing article explaining why State Rep. Robert Martwick (D-Chicago) is the finest statesman in Illinois government. (That requires some imagination because, among many other reasons, he’s one of the bill’s sponsors.) No problem so far. But suppose we take the additional step of spending some money to promote our article, maybe by sending money to Facebook or Google to run an ad highlighting it. Boom. Under the pending bill, we’d be making a regulated campaign contribution subject to reporting and spending limits. Or suppose, instead of a cash payment like that, we have somebody working Facebook and Twitter all day, as many organizations do, to help spread and post our work. Is that person’s salary any different? Consider even standard SEO software most websites use. It’s designed to optimize search engine results to drive pageviews. Isn’t the cost of that essentially the same?)

 

COOK COUNTY RECORD
— Northbrook opts in to Cook County paid sick leave ordinance, more uncertainty for employers, lawyer says – Gabriel Neves (DIERSEN: A major reason why my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes hate past and present federal employees is that federal employees get paid sick leave. How much an hour do my critics/opponents pay their operatives and their dupes to demonize me, to denigrate me, to condemn me, to threaten me, to harm me, and to get rid of me? I hope that it is at least $15 an hour. Do my critics/opponents give their operatives and their dupes sick leave? Many of their operatives and their dupes have severe health, financial, and/or other problems. I should write a book about them.)

— What Happens When the Caravan Gets Here? It’s not just a practical problem, but an existential one. Are we ready for it? – ROBERT W. MERRY (DIERSEN: Employers want cheap labor. Ever-increasingly, employers make clear that they want to replace their employees who are Trump supporters, Protestant, conservative, patriotic, Republican, American, White, male, older, non-poor, gun owners, German American, and/or those whose ancestors have been in America for a long time with employees who are anti-Trump, anti-Protestant, anti-conservative, anti-patriotic, anti-Republican, anti-American, anti-White, anti-male, anti-older people, anti-rich people, anti-gun owners, anti-German Americans, and/or anti-those whose ancestors have been in America for a long time.)

WASHINGTON EXAMINER
— Donald who? Neither Democrat nor Republican wants to talk Trump in crucial House races – David M. Drucker (DIERSEN: What do you say to those around Roskam who advise Roskam a) to dump Trump and to dump Trump supporters like me, b) to stop me from attending Roskam press conferences fundraisers, c) to stop me from reporting on Roskam press conferences and fundraisers, and d) to blame me and my GOPUSA ILLINOIS emails for all the problem that Roskam has had, that Roskam is having, and that Roskam will have?)
https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/news/campaigns/top-house-democratic-challenger-this-election-is-not-about-donald-trump
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Like Underwood, Republican Rep. Peter Roskam, facing a challenge from Democrat Sean Casten, is less interested in talking national issues. With a tough race in suburban Chicago, in the neighboring Sixth Congressional District, it’s understandable that Roskam doesn’t want to discuss Trump. Instead, the embattled Republican incumbent tries to keep the focus on the low unemployment rate and high rate of economic growth that have resulted since the Republican-controlled Congress pass a sweeping $1.3 trillion tax overhaul. Notably, Roskam in an interview with the Washington Examiner last week didn’t raise the issue of the migrant caravan headed toward the Southern border; the threat of illegal immigrant gangs; or the #jobsnotmobs meme being pushed by some Republicans, including some in vulnerable suburban districts just like his. Indeed, Roskam didn’t even bother warn about House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., becoming the speaker. Rather, he spent a campaign swing through his district promoting tax reform and his work to address the opioid crisis — issues that interest voters but that get less national airtime. “I’m running against one person,” Roskam said. “My goal is to win a majority on Nov. 6 and so I’m focused on one person who’s the messenger of policies and tone that don’t reflect this district and so. I don’t like the all or nothing business. I don’t think it’s persuasive.”)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: Hugh Heckman, former editor for PBS NewsHour, has sued his former employers over his termination, which he alleges came two days after he referred to Meghan Markle, the Duchess of Sussex as “not bad.” Heckman claims he was fired as a result of sex discrimination in violation of Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and the New York State Human Rights Law because a similar comment by a female colleague about a man wasn’t subject to investigation or discipline. According to the complaint filed in the District Court for the Southern District of New York, Heckman, an at-will employee, was working on a story about the British Royal Family in November 2017 when he viewed a photo of Markle. To his male colleague next to him, Heckman said “‘not bad’ . . . in a low tone of voice.” This comment was overheard by a female colleague 20 feet away, who remarked that Heckman wasn’t abiding by the principles of the recent sexual harassment training session the employees had attended. Another female co-worker commented, “haven’t you learned?” The complaint alleges that Heckman “immediately explained that he had not intended any sexually harassing remark,” and that he was referring to Markle’s suitability as a match for Prince Harry with regards to her charm and beauty. One of the female co-workers reported Heckman’s comment to executive producer Scott Davis, who, two days later, told Heckman he was “regretfully” terminating his employment, offering “this latest incident” as a reason.)
