POLITICO ILLINOIS
— Conservative activist Dan Proft took issue with my description Monday of his media company being “far right” politics-wise. “You wouldn’t refer to the Sun-Times as far left,” he said. Good point. So how to describe Proft’s political leanings? Is he a Trump conservative? Proft emailed: “My conservatism predates Trump—who I wouldn’t call a conservative—by 30 years.” – Shia Kapos

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.)

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.”)

— Former PBS Editor Alleges Sex Discrimination In His Firing Over Calling Meghan Markle ‘Not Bad’ – Michelle Kaminsky (DIERSEN: Are/were you an “at-will” employee? Federal employees are not “at-will” employees. Federal employees have federal civil service protections. Because I have always been a Republican, were it not for federal civil service protections, a) the Post Office would NOT have hired me in 1966 or let me work there for almost 3 years, b) IRS would NOT have hired me in 1971 or let me work there for almost 9 years, c) IRS would NOT have promoted me in 1972, 1973, or 1974, d) GAO would NOT have hired me in 1980 or let me work there for almost 18 years, and e) GAO would NOT have promoted me in 1986.)

(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.)

https://www.chicagotribune.com/news/local/politics/ct-met-trump-maga-rally-illinois-20181027-story.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Republican Gov. Bruce Rauner showed up at the rally despite years of actively distancing himself from the controversial president — at least until recently when the governor sought to try to unify core social conservatives angry with his signature on laws expanding abortion, immigration and transgender rights. Trump made no mention of Rauner, who sat off to the side in bleachers far behind the main podium. Wearing a motorcycle vest and a baseball cap affirming the pro-police message “Back the Blue,” Rauner did not address the audience. While Rauner was Downstate, Democratic challenger J.B. Pritzker was campaigning in the west and northwest suburbs while adding $10 million to his own already record-shattering self-funding mark, bringing it to more than $171.5 million since he launched his campaign fund in March of last year. In a campaign fundraising email appeal for other Democratic candidates, Pritzker said Rauner’s attendance at the Trump rally was a “final desperate attempt to save his failing campaign.”)

CHICAGO SUN-TIMES
— Trump ignores Rauner at southern Illinois rally; praises Bost, Hultgren, Davis – Lynn Sweet (DIERSEN: According to this article, Roskam is “wooing voters who are turned off by Trump’s divisive politics and scorched rhetoric.” What do you say to those who advise Roskam to woo anti-Trumps by dumping Trump supporting Dave Diersen and his GOPUSA ILLINOIS emails? Since 2000, those advisors have blamed Diersen and his emails for all the losses that Republicans have suffered in Illinois.)
https://chicago.suntimes.com/columnists/trump-ignores-rauner-southern-illinois-rally-praises-bost-hultgren-davis/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Republican Gov. Bruce Rauner, who must reclaim the GOP base to win re-election, showed up in the audience at President Donald Trump’s southern Illinois rally on Saturday, though Trump never mentioned the governor in his remarks nor invited him to the stage. If it was a deliberate snub, it was a remarkable rebuff — a Republican president ignoring a GOP governor who is struggling to win a second term against Democrat J.B. Pritzker. Or Rauner’s team may have said it’s OK to ignore him as he continues to try to have it both ways when it comes to Trump. While avoiding Rauner, Trump did give a big boost to three of the four Republican Illinois House members facing tough re-election races: Reps. Mike Bost, Rodney Davis and, in a big surprise, Randy Hultgren. Hultgren traveled more than 300 miles from his Chicago area district to Murphysboro to plant his flag with the president in the unannounced appearance. I heard that Rauner’s team was trying to arrange a last minute private meeting with Trump, a move calculated to try to appease the GOP base he has alienated so much that he barely won re-nomination in the March Illinois GOP primary. I’m not sure that private meeting ever took place. I did see Rauner pictured in the crowd standing next to Republican National Committee Finance Chair Todd Ricketts, who did visit with Trump at the rally. It’s hard to see how this fence straddling will work well for Rauner. While he avoided being caught in the same camera frame as Trump — which would depress his support among the independents and moderate Republicans he needs — he still was not embraced by Trump. Trump is very popular with the segments of the Republican base Rauner knows he needs. Rauner on Saturday was trying to catch a ride on Trump’s coat tails without paying much of a price. The rally was billed as a boost for Bost. Rep. Peter Roskam, R-Ill., in a fight with Democratic nominee Seat Casten in the 6th district, was the only one of the four GOP targets who did not attend the Trump rally, which made sense since his re-election depends on wooing voters who are turned off by Trump’s divisive politics and scorched rhetoric. Hultgren is in a tight race with Democratic nominee Lauren Underwood in the 14th congressional district, in prior years safe GOP turf. Hultgren needs Trump’s help to turn out Republicans who otherwise sit out mid-terms. Hultgren may have decided to journey to Murphysboro, near Carbondale, because former Vice President Joe Biden headlines a rally for Underwood on Wednesday at the Kane County Fairgrounds in St. Charles, where blues singer Keb’ Mo’ will also perform. “We need your vote,” Hultgren said to the crowd, though he was hundreds of miles away from his voters. Bost is facing a strong challenge for the 12th district seat from Democrat Brendan Kelly, the St. Clair County State’s Attorney. Davis is running against Democrat contender BetsyDirksen Londrigan in the 13th district, anchored in central Illinois.)

In addition to her being a Jewish woman, they resented the fact that she was younger, she was attractive, she was wealthy, she was a CPA, she had an MBA from the University of Chicago, and she was Russian-American.

— A quarter of college students could develop PTSD because of the 2016 election, a new study suggests – Isaac Stanley-Becker (DIERSEN: What might cause you to develop PTSD?

https://www.washingtonpost.com/nation/2018/10/24/quarter-college-students-could-develop-ptsd-because-election-new-study-suggests/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Are college students “snowflakes” — triggered, traumatized and altogether too delicate for the real world? Or are they apathetic — so unconcerned that they can’t be bothered to purchase stamps to send in their absentee ballots? The two characterizations of young Americans are in conflict, observed Melissa Hagan, an assistant professor of psychology at San Francisco State University. Her research has led her to believe that neither captures what’s going on in the minds of young people. Their intense reaction to political events runs contrary to the charge of apathy, she said, while the emotional trauma they report should not be dismissed as hypersensitivity. With a team of researchers, she surveyed 769 introductory psychology students at Arizona State University in January and February 2017, asking about their satisfaction with the 2016 election, whether they were upset about the outcome and whether the results of the race had affected their close relationships.)

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

Roskam says the authors excluded the good stuff in the law. – GREG HINZ (DIERSEN: Government should encourage marriage and home ownership. Too many of those around Roskam want to punish me because I have repeatedly asked Roskam in my GOPUSA ILLINOIS emails to increase the $10,000 SALT cap to $20,000 for married filing jointly. To punish me, too many of those around Roskam a) dismiss/belittle/badmouth what I have done to help elect and reelect Roskam since 2000, b) refuse to include diersen@aol.com on Roskam’s press advisory list, c) attempt to bar me from his press conferences, d) bar me from attending his fundraisers, and e) bar me from reporting on his fundraisers. Too many of those around Roskam believe that the more that they punish me, the more votes that Roskam will get. Too many of those around Roskam want him to give preference to those who are unmarried and/or renters.)

— Suburban Republicans struggling to survive Trump – David M. Drucker (DIERSEN: Too many of those around Roskam want Roskam to run as an anti-Trump. Of course, because I support Trump and because many opinion leaders in Roskam’s congressional district read GOPUSA ILLINOIS emails, too many of those around Roskam want Roskam to dump me completely.)
https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/news/campaigns/suburban-republicans-struggling-to-survive-trump
(FROM THE ARTICLE: BARTLETT, Ill. — The Republican Party is on the ropes in America’s upscale suburbs, usually friendly territory that is poised to rebuke President Trump and deliver the House majority to the Democrats, in the final days of a volatile fall campaign. In suburban Chicago, Rep. Peter Roskam is battling to survive amid political headwinds Republicans last experienced in the late 2000s with dual blue waves that booted the GOP from power in Congress and elevated Illinois Democrat Barack Obama to the White House. Roskam always beat the odds, overcoming challenges more daunting than his Democratic opponent this year, businessman Sean Casten. None of these hurdles were Trump. In galvanizing a loyal coalition of conservative populists that won an unlikely 2016 victory simultaneously drove moderate Republican women and independents in the suburbs into the arms of the Democrats, putting the House in play and the GOP majority in serious jeopardy. In Roskam’s district, Democrat Hillary Clinton defeated Trump by 7 points; similar results played out in nearly two-dozen traditionally Republican seats. “I’ve said early on in this presidency that the president should stop tweeting; just throw the Twitter feed away and there’s really nothing good I’ve seen that has happened as a result,” Roskam said Wednesday in an interview with the Washington Examiner, after a campaign swing through the 6th Congressional District. “When it’s been appropriate for me to stand up to the administration, I’ve done that, and I’ve been vocal.” Putting an “independent check” on Trump is a big theme of the Casten campaign. This is “something that Peter Roskam has failed to do as he’s voted with Trump 94 percent of the time,” Casten spokesman Greg Bales said. Casten declined a request for an interview. The Trump revolt in suburbia is fueling the Democratic Party just down the road in the neighboring 14th Congressional District, a roughly half-rural, half-suburban seat drawn to protect Republican incumbents and that voted for the president over Clinton by nearly 4 points. Republican Rep. Randy Hultgren is in measurably better shape than Roskam, according to the available polling data and the analysis of party insiders on both sides of the aisle. But the congressman’s dynamic Democratic challenger, Obama administration veteran Lauren Underwood, an African-American woman, is forcing Hultgren to fight for a fifth term. The rise of quality Democratic candidates in usually sleepy GOP districts like the 14th is a key component of what House Republicans are spread so thin as they labor to defend their 23-seat majority. Early Thursday morning, more than two-dozen Underwood supporters packed a meeting room at a local community college for a round table on climate change and the environment. This sort of fresh energy in GOP districts on the margins of competitiveness is boosting Democratic prospects, putting even more pressure on Republican incumbents in battleground districts that are on the frontlines of the Democrats’ assault. “You are finding a lot of women, in particular, that are motivated and angry and upset and are actually taking that next step to actually get involved, not only through traditional routes in terms of the county party structures or the county parties, but also just kind of forming their own pop-up groups,” said Kristina Zahorik, chairwoman of the Democratic Party in McHenry County, in the 14th District. “In previous cycles, we didn’t see that,” Zahorik added. Democrats less than two weeks before Election Day are maintaining a generic ballot lead of between 7 and 8 points, just enough for them to win the House but not enough to guarantee victory. Some Republicans, though still in danger, have seen their numbers improve as GOP enthusiasm has ticked up in the aftermath of the explosive confirmation of Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh. Roskam, hard-working and battle-tested, is beginning to feel a change in the tide that the sixth-term congressman said reminds him of past hard-fought finishes in tough environments. On Wednesday, a relaxed Roskam accepted the endorsement of a local chamber of commerce before assembled dignitaries and employees at an automotive repair shop in Crystal Lake, a leafy community of 40,000 in his district, as he talked up tax reform and its impact on the economy. The $1.3 trillion tax overhaul has been a tough sell in affluent blue-state suburbs, as voters calculate the loss of the federal deduction for state and local taxes. Roskam, as member of the House tax-writing committee, has come under fire for the legislation in some quarters. But signs of pressure were nonexistent as he traversed the district, asking voters to talk about how the law improved their finances. The Roskam campaign is hitting Casten for supporting a hike in the gas tax, an issue that could offset blowback for his support of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act. Backng a gas tax is a curious position in an area where voters are so dependent on their automobiles for transportation. Roskam said his opposition is “common sense,” an approach that he believes has helped him weather past storms, and will do so again. “I love campaigns like this — because campaigns like this are about worldview. This is not donkeys and elephants; it’s not shirts and skins, it’s about how do we view the economy ultimately,” Roskam said as he accepted the chamber endorsement.)

The president cast himself as a uniter after bombs were sent to several top Democrats, infuriating critics and touching off an argument about America’s political discourse.” I should write a book about Democrats and Democrat plants, Libertarians and Libertarian plants, Greens and Green plants, and RINOs in my precinct, in Wheaton, in Glen Ellyn, in Milton Township, in DuPage County, and in Illinois who stoke hatred against those like me who support a) the traditional family, right to life, immigration, Second Amendment, illegal drugs, equal opportunity (no race or gender based preference giving), and the rest of the planks in the Illinois Republican Party platform and the Republican Party platform and b) the Milton Township Republican Central Committee resolution against video gambling.)
