http://www.chicagotribune.com/suburbs/aurora-beacon-news/news/ct-abn-aurora-security-st-0928-20170928-story.html
— Dissident artist Ai Weiwei and U.S. Rep. Randy Hultgren bond over refugee rights – Kim Janssen (DIERSEN: Of course, because of this, my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes would hint/imply/argue/shout at Hultgren that I am a White supremacist, Nazi, KKK member, hater, racist, sexist, bigot, and even worse things. They would stress to Hultgren that unlike them, I am not a member of a church, I do not attend church services, and I do not give money to a church. Anti-Trumps shout at refugees that Republicans are White supremacists, Nazis, KKK members, haters, racists, sexists, bigots, and even worse things.)
http://www.chicagotribune.com/news/chicagoinc/ct-hultgren-weiwei-0927-chicago-inc-20170927-story.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Hultgren’s outspoken support of refugee rights has placed him in potential conflict with President Donald Trump, whose bans on refugees from a series of majority Muslim countries have been challenged in court. But the congressman, who votes in line with Trump’s favored position more than 90 percent of the time, was careful not to directly criticize White House policy this week. “Immigration is a foundational part of who we are … to be a place of refuge,” he said. “I understand that there are bad actors and terrorists out there … but I don’t want to shut off opportunity for people who really need refuge. I don’t think those are mutually exclusive.”)

DAILY HERALD
— DIERSEN HEADLINE: Anti-Trumps say “Immigrant rights event canceled after threats to Arlington Heights library.”
http://www.dailyherald.com/news/20170928/lester-immigrant-rights-event-canceled-after-threats-to-arlington-heights-library
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Arlington Heights Memorial Library canceled an immigrants rights workshop this week out of “concerns for safety” after the library’s voice mail and board president Deb Smart’s home phone were flooded with calls from people objecting to the meeting. “It was an unsettling process,” Smart says. “People called the switchboard, saying they’d call (federal immigration officials) and have a raid done.” She says she was called names and threatened, and ultimately involved local police. The free workshop was sponsored by the Community Activism Law Alliance and was advertised as informing immigrants on what to do and say when in contact with immigration and police officers and how to prepare “emergency kits” if they’re at risk for detention. Smart said a similar workshop might be held in the future at a different location. The library’s official statement, posted on its website, says “the decision to cancel the workshop was based on concerns for the safety and welfare of workshop attendees, library staff and library users.”)
— Undergarments for packing heat – Kerry Lester
http://www.dailyherald.com/news/20170928/lester-immigrant-rights-event-canceled-after-threats-to-arlington-heights-library
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Marilyn Smolenski of Park Ridge, who is unopposed in the Republican primary in the 55th Illinois House District, owns Nickel and Lace, a business specializing in “concealed carry holster undergarments,” which are advertised as both discreet and comfortable. She founded the business after finding holsters “were all really geared toward men,” she told Fox Business Network last year. Democratic state Rep. Marty Moylan of Des Plaines is seeking re-election in the 55th District next November.)
— Congrats to Connelly – Kerry Lester
http://www.dailyherald.com/news/20170928/lester-immigrant-rights-event-canceled-after-threats-to-arlington-heights-library
(FROM THE ARTICLE: St. Joseph High School in Westchester is honoring Naperville Republican state Sen. Michael Connelly with its St. Joseph the Worker Award. School officials say the award is given to those who’ve succeeded in business, the arts, science or community service and is traced back to the motto of the school, Vincit Qui Laborat, translated as “he conquers, who labors.” Connelly, a 1982 graduate, was recently named assistant Republican leader.)
— New flak in Roskam camp – Kerry Lester
http://www.dailyherald.com/news/20170928/lester-immigrant-rights-event-canceled-after-threats-to-arlington-heights-library
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Republican U.S. Rep. Peter Roskam of Wheaton has a new communications director. Veronica Vera, a Chicago native, worked at the Illinois Department of Aging and the Illinois Department of Human before beginning this new role. Unlike her predecessors in the office, most recently David Pasch, Vera will be based in Illinois, not Washington, D.C.)

— Tax reform plan targets blue states  Just another fringe benefit of GOP tax overhaul – Michael Graham
http://www.bostonherald.com/opinion/op_ed/2017/09/graham_tax_reform_plan_targets_blue_states
(FROM THE ARTICLE: In other words, getting rid of this targeted tax break for state and local taxes would create more jobs and wealth for Americans across the board. But it’s even better than that. The states with the highest tax burden are places like New York, Connecticut, Illinois, California, and Rhode Island. Spot a trend? They are all deep, deep blue. The top 10 self-taxing states contributed a total of one Electoral College vote to Donald Trump (Thanks, Maine!).)

http://www.chicagotribune.com/suburbs/naperville-sun/news/ct-nvs-proposed-dupage-budget-st-0927-20170926-story.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: DuPage County employee salaries would be cut by up to 4 percent to compensate for a $2.7 million loss in state revenue under a budget proposed Tuesday by board Chairman Dan Cronin. The reductions are necessary to ensure that property taxes don’t increase under the 2017-18 spending plan, Cronin told county board members. “This has been an exceedingly difficult year,” he said. “I don’t know if people expect this from year to year, but we have a unique brand of government here. We do more with less.” Among the revenue cuts from the state are 10 percent less from the Local Government Distributive Fund, 2 percent less from the administrative fee on Regional Transportation Authority sales tax and a reduction in the Personal Property Replacement tax. Cronin and his finance team are asking all county departments to make across-the-board salary reductions in lieu of laying off staff.)

http://www.dailyherald.com/article/20170926/news/309269931/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The teen’s online posts mocking and criticizing the city-state’s government have twice landed him in a Singapore jail. He left his homeland in December with the intention of seeking U.S. asylum, but immigration agents took him into custody at O’Hare International Airport. He has remained behind bars during the proceedings. Attorney Sandra Grossman anticipated that Yee, in custody at a county jail outside Chicago, could be released at “any time.” “We welcome the board’s decision and we welcome it because it’s a decision that’s grounded in law and in fact,” she said. “He was persecuted because of political beliefs.”)

The generation of 76.4 million born between 1946 and 1964 who once romped in the back seats of their parents’ station wagons has determined what we drive for over a half-century. With advanced technology and designs catering to this demographic, boomers will influence our rides long past when they hang up their key chains.)

DAILY HERALD
— More than 100 people protest Wheaton landlord over ‘back to Vietnam’ sign – Justin Kmitch  (DIERSEN: Because I refuse to hate Sandberg, Sandberg-haters hate me. Sandberg-haters are anti-Trump, anti-Protestant, anti-conservative, anti-Republican, anti-American, anti-White, anti-male, anti-older people, anti-rich people, anti-gun owners, anti-German Americans, anti-draft avoiders (except Bill Clinton), and/or anti-those whose ancestors have been in America longer than their ancestors.)
http://www.dailyherald.com/news/20170923/more-than-100-people-protest-wheaton-landlord-over-back-to-vietnam-sign
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The normally bustling corner of Front and Main streets in downtown Wheaton was even busier Saturday afternoon as more than 100 sign-waving protesters gathered to protest a local landlord. The group’s members, led by longtime Wheaton resident Jessica Prewitt, were speaking out against local businessman Robert Sandberg and a sign he posted two years ago inside the front door of a former Vietnamese restaurant that says the owners “went back to Vietnam.” The groundswell developed after Prewitt Wednesday posted a picture of the sign on social media. “To me, that sign says, ‘You’re not welcome here, get out,'” Prewitt said Saturday outside Sandberg’s men’s clothing store. “Wheaton is a very tolerant, diverse community. There’s just no room for that here.” Protesters lined the corner in front of Sandberg’s store, at times blocking his front door, holding signs that read “Diversity is Delightful,” “Be Kind,” “Give Hate no Home” and “Wheaton Welcomes All.” Kate McElwee brought her two young daughters for what she called a “teaching moment.” “This is so much bigger than Mr. Sandberg versus the restaurant owners,” she said. “This is about us peacefully using our freedom of speech to speak out against an enemy of diversity in our community.” Some people not associated with the protest said they felt obligated to go buy something from Sandberg because they felt he was being treated unfairly. Others yelled things like “fake news!” and “say no to DACA” as they drove east on Front Street. Inside his store, Sandberg defended his right to keep the sign posted until he receives a handwritten apology from the owners of Luong-Loi, who he says skipped out on their rent and owe him $17,000. The operators of the restaurant, which eventually reopened across the street from its former location, deny on Facebook that they have any unmet obligations to Sandberg. “Look, what these snowflakes are doing out here is petty. I’m no racist,” Sandberg said of the protesters. “I have black friends and I’m actively supporting (former member of Congress from Florida) Allen West, who is black and a great, great man. This is a dispute between me and a former tenant who lied to me and who owes me money. Now these people have people calling my phone and telling me I’m a racist.” Sandberg said he posted the sign because he grew tired of people coming into his store and asking him what happened to the Vietnamese restaurant that had been there for about 30 years. And, he’s willing to take it down, with conditions. “It could be taken down yesterday. All you have to do is have them give me a letter saying that they lied to me. They told me wrong. They didn’t go back to Vietnam,” Sandberg said. “Give me a reason you did what you did or just say, ‘We told you wrong. We made a mistake.'” Luong-Loi serves lunch and dinner in a building formerly owned by Sandberg at 111-113 N. Main St. The city gained ownership of the long-vacant property in 2006 after six years of condemnation proceedings against Sandberg. In late 2014, the city council approved the sale of the building to the restaurateurs for $160,111. The restaurant reopened about a year later after extensive renovations of the building’s facade. Luong-Loi employees present Saturday declined to comment but pointed to a statement released Friday on their Facebook page. “On behalf of the Luong-Loi family, I want to thank Jessica and everyone here for their support and concern on this matter. Thank you to all our customers, the City of Wheaton, and the entire community for your continued support of our family and business,” the statement reads. “As for Mr. Sandberg and the ‘We went back to Vietnam’ sign: We want to thank Mr. Sandberg for allowing Luong-Loi to lease his property for the past 25-plus years. We have no other obligations to Mr. Sandberg.”)

http://www.chicagotribune.com/news/columnists/kass/ct-met-first-amendment-college-kass-0922-story.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: You may have once had doubts that the American left has spent decades feeding a weed that would grow to strangle American liberty. But those doubts have now been dispelled, haven’t they? Because a new survey of American college students by the Brookings Institution offers perhaps the most depressing forecast of the future of liberty that we’ve seen. It tells us that many of the most privileged people on the planet, American college students, are barbarously illiterate when it comes to understanding the freedoms given them by the Constitution. A barbarously illiterate people can easily be turned into an angry horde. It is dangerous work, yes, but it can be done. They can be herded, cynically, with prompts to emotion and calls to anger for short-term political gain. But having thrown away their understanding of their freedoms, such people cannot remain free for long. According to the survey, when asked if the First Amendment protected so-called hate speech, 44 percent of college students said no. And 16 percent said they didn’t know the answer. More than half, 51 percent, said they think that “shouting so the audience can’t hear,” also known as the heckler’s veto, is an acceptable tactic for silencing a controversial speaker.

— CURRIE TO RECEIVE 6-FIGURE PENSION AFTER FIRST YEAR OF RETIREMENT  The longtime House majority leader will benefit from a sweetener provision that grants massive pension spikes to career lawmakers after one year of retirement. – Austin Berg  (DIERSEN: My $50,856 Civil Service Retirement System pension is dramatically reduced because my Democrat superiors in the federal government wasted my career and forced me to take their early retirement “offer” in 1997 when I was 49 years old. But then again, that is want Democrat politicians wanted them to do.)
https://www.illinoispolicy.org/currie-to-receive-6-figure-pension-after-first-year-of-retirement/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: When she retires as majority leader, her salary will likely stand at over $91,000, including her base salary and leadership bonus. That means her first-year pension payment will be more than $77,000. Then the spikes kick in. Her second-year pension will total more than $121,000, according to GARS rules.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: The whole point of Ben Stiller’s new film “Brad’s Status,” the actor said, is how many of us spend “way too much time worrying about being less successful than our peer group. “You can be happily driving down the street or something, and if you’re an actor — especially in Hollywood where they have those huge billboards up on Sunset Boulevard — you can be easily hit in the face with a huge one-upmanship comparison. You look up and see that huge billboard for someone’s latest film, and think, ‘What?! What’s that?! How did he get that? Nobody told me about that!’ ” The entertainment business is rife with people making those kinds of comparisons, he said, but “no matter what you do, I know people are comparing their lives and levels of success to others, whether they be lawyers, hedge-fund guys, retailers or salesmen.”)

SPRINGFIELD STATE JOURNAL REGISTER
— Raoul enters AG race, apologizes for ‘Miss America’ comment – Bernard Schoenburg
http://www.sj-r.com/news/20170920/raoul-enters-ag-race-apologizes-for-miss-america-comment
(FROM THE ARTICLE: State Sen. Kwame Raoul, D-Chicago, who says he will run for attorney general in 2018, on Wednesday apologized for how he referred to Republican candidate Erika Harold when discussing the office last week. “I’ve seen the reaction to the comment that I made, and I don’t blame anybody for being offended,” Raoul told The State Journal-Register. “If I read them without the full context of our full conversation, I would have the same reaction. … I take full responsibility for the bad characterization.” Raoul told the newspaper on Friday, after Democratic Attorney General Lisa Madigan announced she would not seek another term, that “I think Lisa would have acquitted herself well against Miss America. I don’t know what’s behind the attorney general’s decision … but I doubt seriously it was any fear of Erika Harold.” Harold, of Urbana, was the 2003 Miss America, and is also a graduate of Harvard Law School, and now practices law. The story yielded a statement from state Rep. Jeanne Ives, R-Wheaton, calling Raoul’s statement “blatant and belittling sexism.” “As a cadet at West Point and a woman in the political arena, I have spent much of my career fighting the dismissive, condescending sexism Senator Raoul so brazenly exhibited in his attempt to frame Ms. Harold as ‘just a pretty face,’” Ives said. “I do apologize, first off to Erika Harold, because … I don’t think it’s a small accomplishment to be Miss America,” Raoul said Wednesday. “In addition, her academic credentials are exceptional.” He said the point he was making in the full conversation last week was that he didn’t think Madigan was scared out of the race. “I think my record and people who know me demonstrates that I’m not a sexist,” Raoul said. “But I do apologize, first off to Erika Harold and to anybody else who took my comments to be intended to be demeaning to Miss Harold.”)

ILLINOIS REVIEW
— DISCUSSION: SHOULD REPUBLICAN CANDIDATES UPHOLD THE IL GOP PLATFORM? (DIERSEN: I served on the 2008 Illinois Republican Party (IRP) Platform and Resolutions Committee. Political parties exist to help elect candidates who can and will defend and advance their platform. In Illinois, if you have not and/or if you are not going to defend and advance the IRP platform, you should not seek or hold any kind of government office or political office as a Republican. In Illinois, when Republican elected officials and/or party leaders fail or refuse to defend and advance the IRP platform, the IRP should not only work against them, the IRP should censure them or remove them from the office(s) that they hold. In Illinois, when Republican candidates fail or refuse to commit to defend and advance the IRP platform, the IRP should not only work against them, the IRP should have the power to remove them from the ballot.)
http://illinoisreview.typepad.com/illinoisreview/2017/09/should-republican-candidates-uphold-the-il-gop-platform-.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Delegates representing the party’s rank and file at the 2016 Illinois Republican Convention resoundingly embraced the Platform Committee’s recommended planks. Last year’s most controversial plank was the party’s view on upholding traditional marriage. Observers counted nearly 85 percent of the delegates supporting one-man, one-woman marriage. A subsequent vote on the whole platform confirmed the delegates support for the platform. But since that time, there has been a growing discussion about just how important – or unimportant – a political party’s platform is. . .How important is the IL GOP’s party platform? Do you think candidates should hold to the planks if they are elected? Or is it merely a suggestion and irrelevant as a whole? Please comment either here on Illinois Review’s website or on Illinois Review’s Facebook page. Your ideas matter.)

I bought my first new car when I was 17. I graduated debt-free from NIU with a bachelor’s degree in management when I was 21. I bought a new Corvette when I was 23. I bought a new town home in University Park when I was 24. I bought a studio condo in the Outer Drive East building in downtown Chicago when I was 25 and a one bedroom condo in that building when I was 27. I earned an MBA from Loyola when I was 27 and a master’s degree in accounting from DePaul when I was 31.  I passed the CPA examination on my first attempt when I was 30. I passed the Certified Internal Auditor examination on my first attempt when I was 32.  I became a licensed CPA when I was 32. I got married when I was 29 and we bought 1017 East Harrison in Wheaton when I was 29.)

— Debating the Role of Federal Employees – Ralph R. Smith (DIERSEN: From what I saw while I worked for the federal government for almost 30 years in three different agencies, its top priority was a) hiring, retaining, and promoting young Democrat minorities and young Democrat females and b) making way for them by getting rid of federal employees who were Republican, White, male, older, and/or non-veteran. Democrats use Affirmative Action, Diversity, and Inclusion to not hire and to get rid of employees who are Republican, White, male, older, and/or non-veteran.)

Ever-increasingly, my precinct, Wheaton, Milton Township, DuPage County, and Illinois are anti-Trump, anti-Protestant, anti-conservative, anti-Republican, anti-American, anti-White, anti-male, anti-older people, anti-rich people, anti-gun owners, anti-German Americans, anti-draft avoiders (except Bill Clinton), and/or anti-those whose ancestors have been in America longer than their ancestors.

— Former Bears cornerback Charles Tillman training to join the FBI – Brad Biggs
http://www.chicagotribune.com/sports/football/bears/ct-charles-tillman-fbi-training-20170919-story.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: FBI guidelines mandate prospective candidates for hiring as a special agent must be at least 23 years old but younger than 37 at the time of appointment. Tillman turns 37 on Feb. 23. “We don’t speak about personnel matters,” special agent Garrett Croon, a spokesman for the Chicago bureau, told the Tribune. Tillman earned a bachelor’s degree in criminal justice from the University of Louisiana-Lafayette before the Bears drafted him in the second round in 2003. He grew up in a military family — his father, Donald Tillman Jr., was a sergeant in the Army — and attended 11 schools from kindergarten through 12th grade.)
— Don’t expect a big raise next year, survey says – Robert Channick  (DIERSEN: What raises have you gotten?  My critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes have always been furious that because of COLAs, step increases, and/or promotions, my salary increased every year that I worked for the federal government 1966-1969 and 1971-1997 except for 1980 when I took an $18,847 (21%) pay cut in today’s dollars to transfer from IRS to GAO. In my defense, 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.)

— When you are too old to find any job – Ilana Gershon and Noah Berlatsky (DIERSEN: How old are you?  I will soon be 69. Non-veteran White males who are seeking a job with the federal government should be advised that with only rare exceptions, you will be deemed to be a bad employee, your career will be wasted, and you will be gotten rid of if you do not make GS-13 (currently $94,610) by age 25, GS-14 (currently $111,801) by age 30, GS-15 (currently $131,508) by age 35, and Senior Executive Service (currently $161,900) by age 40. I did not make GS-13 until I was 38 and I was never promoted beyond that. My Democrat GAO superiors forced me to retire in 1997 when I was 49 years old, always ranked me in the bottom half of my coworkers for pay-for-performance purposes, did not promote me beyond GS-13, kept me off audits of IRS for all but 3 of the almost 18 years that I worked for GAO, and forced me to take an $18,847 (21%) pay cut in today’s dollars to transfer from IRS to GAO in 1980.  My Democrat IRS superiors did not promote me beyond GS-12, disallowed my education deductions in 1978, and disallowed my partial day per diem claims in 1974.  My Democrat Post Office superiors forced me resign in 1969 and disallowed my sick leave requests in 1969 and 1968.)

— Learning to appreciate the ‘Vietnam syndrome’ – Clarence Page  (DIERSEN: How did Vietnam impact you? Since 1966, my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes have hinted/implied/argued/shouted at my superiors, supervisors, coworkers, subordinates, and everyone else a) that to avoid being sent to Vietnam, I was a full-time student at UIC 1966-1968 and at NIU 1969-1970 and I sought and obtained student draft deferments 1966-1970 and a financial hardship draft deferment 1970-1971; b) that the aforesaid proved that I am a patriotic hypocrite, a coward, and even worse things; and c) that aforesaid proves why I should pay the price of Affirmative Action, Diversity, and Inclusion.  Because I am not a veteran, and therefore I did not get the veterans preference, a) some if not many federal jobs were not offered me, b) the job offer that IRS gave me and that I accepted in 1971 was delayed, and c) my Democrat GAO superiors succeeded in forcing me to take their early retirement “offer” in 1997 when I was 49 years old.  During the 1980s and 1990s, GAO had a written agreement with its employees who were veterans that they would not be adversely impacted by budget cuts or downsizing.)
http://www.chicagotribune.com/news/opinion/page/ct-perspec-page-vietnam-ken-burns-syndrome-20170920-story.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: About a dozen of us strolled wearily and unhappily into the Greyhound bus station early that morning on a date that we would never forget. It was Nov. 19, 1969, the date that our government told us to report for the military draft. . .Like most military draftees, as it turned out, I never was sent to Vietnam. But like just about every American who was around at the time, the war had an impact on my life that often drives me to movies, books and documentaries about the period to try to make sense of it. . .I served my two years in the Army and returned home as many did, looking for some silver lining in a war that, as Burns’ documentary shows, did not have to happen. The best I could come up with was to hope that, at least, we Americans had learned enough from our tragedies in Southeast Asia that we won’t make that kind of mistake again. No, we have learned how to make new ones.)

At IRS and at GAO, to move up the ladder, passing the CPA examination used to be required, but not any more. My Democrat IRS superiors, supervisors, coworkers, and subordinate were furious when I passed the CPA examination on my first attempt in 1979 when I was 30 years old.  My Democrat GAO superiors, supervisors, coworkers, and subordinate were furious when I passed the Certified Internal Auditor (CIA) examination on my first attempt in 1981 when I was 32 years old. My Democrat IRS and GAO superiors promoted many of their Democrat employees over me who not only had not passed the CPA or CIA examinations, they had not even tried to.)

http://www.americanthinker.com/articles/2017/09/the_awful_future_that_looms_for_a_majority_of_todays_americans_.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: When it comes to the future, an overwhelming majority of Americans have adopted a mindset that is a variation of Isiah 22:12: “Let us eat, drink and be merry for tomorrow does not matter.”  Recently, federal debt surpassed the $20 Trillion mark (additional state and local debt amount to another $2.9 Trillion). That milestone was greeted by the Ruling Class and a vast preponderance of the citizenry with a yawn and a shrug of the shoulder. As the ongoing determination to promote new entitlement spending and the refusal to rein in, but instead to expand, existing programs continues unabated. Any attempt to seriously discuss the financial fate of the nation is ignored and dismissed with the proviso that its someone else’s problem for another day down the road.  In reality, this dilemma is not someone else’s problem.  The average life expectancy in the United States today is 79.  That means that over 225 million citizens and non-citizens in the country today will still be alive in 30 years.)

https://townhall.com/columnists/alberteisenberg/2017/09/18/are-conservatives-prepared-to-be-censored-n2383024
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Somebody at Google is skewing the queries, in this case a form of digital affirmative action: conceivably another point scored in an endless matchup against “white supremacy,” whose presence at all turns is the greatest of progressive obsessions. The implication is that anything related to whiteness – even the telegraph – shouldn’t be searched for at all, and takes up “space” from the accomplishments of marginalized people. In both of the above examples, we receive a political indoctrination in lieu of sought after information. In the second one, we actually learn an altered version of history.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: Erika Harold is used to overcoming challenges. But the 37-year-old Urbana, Ill., attorney and former Miss America recently had a beauty of an obstacle removed from her political path, as Illinois Attorney General Lisa Madigan is not seeking a fifth term. “I announced my candidacy on Aug. 15 and exactly one month later, Lisa Madigan decided to drop out of the race,” Ms. Harold (who wants to become the state’s next chief law-enforcement officer) said Sunday at the Rock Island County Republicans’ annual Ronald Reagan BBQ at Pinnacle Country Club. “We’ve done very well so far.” She graduated from University of Illinois and was accepted at Harvard Law School, but it cost $175,000 for three years. Ms. Harold became Miss America in 2003 to help pay for law school, from which she graduated in 2007, debt-free. She’s been a practicing attorney ever since and has run for the 13th Congressional District seat in Illinois. “I see a state government that’s out of control,” Ms. Harold said. “I see a state government that’s not accountable to the rule of law, and I want to see an Attorney General’s office that works for the people. I want an Attorney General’s office that does not pick and choose the laws it enforces.” She wants to fight public corruption and hold lawmakers accountable. “That has not been done in the past 16 years,” Ms. Harold claimed of Ms. Madigan, whose father is longtime House Speaker Mike Madigan. “Too often that office is used in ways that benefit the politician,” she said. “It does not work on the side of the people.” Having been harassed in high school, Ms. Harold said she knows what it’s like to feel powerless. “People are fed up with what they see in government, on both sides of the aisle,” she said. “I am a committed, independent voice, willing to hold both sides accountable.” Ms. Harold also said she’s a fighter, and an unconventional GOP candidate. “I’m not the kind of person people think of when they think of the Republican Party,” she said. “I will win because I will not be out-worked.”)

https://townhall.com/columnists/derekhunter/2017/09/17/fundamentally-wrong-about-fundamental-rights-n2382661
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Did you realize you have a right to not be offended? That you have a right to other people’s property and their labor? Were you unaware that you, as a citizen, have the same rights in the United States of America as an illegal alien? These are among the newly declared “rights” Democrats have bestowed on people through the power of simply saying they exist. The problem is this concept is fundamentally un-American. Our rights as Americans are not granted to us by the government. Our government is empowered by us on the condition it does not infringe upon the rights with which we were born. The Founding Fathers were brilliant in that they wrote the Constitution to limit government, not citizens. The First Amendment, for example, is explicit in how it starts, “Congress shall make no law…” The rights to free speech, freedom of religion, the press, assembly, etc., are not granted by the Constitution, they are protected from government by it. The whole of the Bill of Rights is written the same way, “Shall not be infringed,” etc. Since the government is not granting those individual rights – we were born with them – it can’t take them away. For liberal progressives, this concept is a threat – they prefer the government being not only the protector of rights, but the decider of what is and is not a right. That’s not liberty; it’s closer to slavery. And slavery is what the left-wing Antifa would like to impose on the country.)

 

DAILY CALLER
— Washington Post Writer Says Trump Is Killing Him, Literally – Henry Rodgers  (DIERSEN: My serving as your GOPUSA Illinois Editor since 2000 and my serving as a Republican Precinct Committeeman since 1999 is killing me, and my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes in my precinct, in Wheaton, in Glen Ellyn, in Milton Township, in DuPage County, and in Illinois look forward to my death. Since 1999, I have exercised less and less and less, I have put on 50 pounds, I have come down with uncontrolled type 2 diabetes, my gall bladder has been taken out, I have had tremendously expensive dental problems, diabetes medications increasingly cause me tremendous digestive problems, my eyesight is failing, etc. I would be dead by now if my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes had not succeeded in ending my TAPROOT Republicans of Illinois chairmanship in 2012, my Wheaton Chamber of Commerce Government Affairs Committee membership in 2011, my Milton Township Republican Central Committee webmaster service in 2010 and 2004, my Illinois Center Right Coalition Steering Committee membership in 2007, my American Association of Political Consultants Midwest Chapter board membership in 2004, and my GAO employment in 1997.)
http://dailycaller.com/2017/09/17/washington-post-writer-says-trump-is-killing-him-literally/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Dana Milbank, a writer for The Washington Post, believes President Donald Trump is literally killing him. Milbank said he discovered Trump’s presidency is affecting his health after visiting the doctor for his first physical in 49 years, in an opinion piece published Friday. Milbank said he had to report that he had not been feeling well recently. “President Trump is killing me. No, really. He’s killing me,” Milbank wrote. The WaPo writer said he has been suffering from fatigue, headaches, trouble sleeping, and chest pain. Milbank said his blood pressure was “alarmingly high” after his doctor tested it, making a point that his blood pressure has “always been normal.” Milbank said he was suffering from “Trump Hypertensive Unexplained Disorder,” a disorder he created and diagnosed himself with. “For almost five decades, I had been the picture of health, but eight months into Trump’s presidency, I was suddenly ailing,” he wrote. “Trump is the only variable, I told my doctor. ‘He sure is variable,’ my doc replied, endorsing the diagnosis.” Throughout Milbank’s piece he explained how he knows his “disorder” caused by Trump is a real thing, claiming he performed a longitudinal study to test his “hypothesis.” Milbank said he purchased a blood pressure monitor and would wrap it around his bicep throughout various parts of the daily news cycle. “I am spending the evening with friends. Blood pressure: 116/67. Trump says he is going to respond to North Korea with ‘fire and fury.’ Blood pressure: 150/95,” Milbank continued. “I’m at home with the kids. Blood pressure: 117/69. Jeff Sessions says they’re scrapping the DACA program: 137/92.” Milbank said he has spoken with psychotherapists who have told him that they are unusually busy with clients who continue to speak about Trump. He claims that Trump is “exacerbating whatever neurosis, depression or other conditions they had.” The WaPo writer said he addressed his self-diagnosed illness of Trump Hypertensive Unexplained Disorder with blood pressure medication prescribed by his doctor. “My prescription is renewable until January 2021, at which point I expect it will no longer be medically necessary,” he concluded.)

EDITOR AND PUBLISHER
— To Avoid Media Bias, News Organizations Are Lifting the Veil – Gretchen A. Peck  (DIERSEN: Ever-increasingly, “news organizations” focus on destroying Trump and destroying his supporters, and especially his supporters who are Protestant, conservative, Republican, American, White, male, older, rich, gun owners, German American, draft avoiders, and/or those whose ancestors have been in America for a long time.)
http://www.editorandpublisher.com/feature/to-avoid-media-bias-news-organizations-are-lifting-the-veil/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Take note of conversations about policy, politics or politicians. Often, they will devolve into a smearing of sources and the news organizations that provided the information; they’re perceived as being for one ideology and against another. It would be disingenuous to suggest that there are not news organizations that have a definitive perspective when it comes to controversial topics such as these. The same might be said for journalists and pundits, too, and the public has become hip to it. In fact, when you consider how most consumers of news choose their sources of information, which often align with their own perspectives and beliefs, it’s easy to see how the lines in the sand have been drawn. Part of the daily mission for many conservative news outlets is to seed distrust among fans, making them leery of all other sources of information from “the liberal media,” including local, regional and national newspapers. Meanwhile, representing the Left, there are organizations like Media Matters for America, which spend resources on correcting or exposing misinformation perpetuated by conservative news sources. And on social media, “fake news” lives on. The public is rightfully confused and unnecessarily agitated, and newspaper brands have suffered because of it. Objectivity as a Guidepost  Perhaps the greatest misconception that the public has about journalists and the business of newsgathering is that pure objectivity is not just possible, but that it’s the whole job. What they may not realize is that sticking to “just the facts,” or merely the “who, what, when, where, and why,” makes for an interminably hollow story, like a naked skeleton. It lacks context, flavor, understanding based on research and knowledge. A “just the facts” story is both boring to read and a dereliction of a journalist’s duty to go beyond the “5 Ws,” with insight, perspectives, and things that become known during the newsgathering that should not be unknown for the sake of appearing purely objective.)
