WASHINGTON POST
— Don’t buy all the PR-style hooey about ‘dreamers’ – Mickey Kaus  (DIERSEN: Ever-increasingly, those individuals, organizations, companies, governments, and countries that promote Dreamers call members of the following groups White supremacists, Nazis, KKK members, haters, racists, sexists, bigots, and even worse things: Trump supporters, Protestant, conservative, Republican, American, White, male, older, rich, gun owners, German Americans, draft avoiders (except Bill Clinton), and/or those whose ancestors have been in America for a long time.)
https://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/dont-buy-all-the-pr-style-hooey-about-dreamers/2017/09/12/adc246d6-9738-11e7-82e4-f1076f6d6152_story.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Who wants to deport “dreamers”? Not many people, it turns out. Even veteran immigration restrictionists seem willing to legalize this subset of undocumented immigrants if it is part of a package deal. That’s true even though a lot of what’s said about the dreamers is PR-style hooey. For example, it’s often said — indeed, former president Barack Obama just recently said — that the approximately 690,000 dreamers were “brought to this country by their parents.” Well, many were. But that’s not required to qualify as a protected dreamer under the various plans, including Obama’s. You just have to have entered the country illegally before age 16. You could have decided to sneak in against your parents’ wishes. You’re still a dreamer! Likewise, we’re told dreamers are college-bound high school grads or military personnel. That’s an exaggeration. All that’s actually required is that the dreamer enroll in a high school course or an “alternative,” including online courses and English-as-a-second-language classes. Under Obama’s now-suspended program, you didn’t even have to stay enrolled. Compared with the general population, dreamers are not especially highly skilled. A recent survey for several pro-dreamer groups, with participants recruited by those groups, found that while most dreamers are not in school, the vast majority work. But their median hourly wage is only $15.34, meaning that many are competing with hard-pressed lower-skilled Americans. The dreamers you read about have typically been carefully selected for their appeal. They’re valedictorians. They’re first responders. They’re curing diseases. They root for the Yankees. They want to serve in the Army. If dreamers are the poster children for the much larger undocumented population, these are the poster children for the poster children. Still, taking the dreamers as a whole, not just the dreamiest of them, they represent an appealing group of would-be citizens. So why not show compassion and legalize them? Because, as is often the case, the pursuit of pure compassion comes with harmful side effects. First, it would create perverse incentives. Can you imagine a stronger incentive for illegal immigration than the idea that if you sneak into the country your kids will get to be U.S. citizens? Sure, the protections don’t currently apply to recent entrants — under Obama’s plan, you had to have come before 2007. But those dates can be changed — Obama himself tried to do it once. And the rationale for rewarding those who arrive when young — that they’re here through “no fault of their own” and know only America, etc. — can apply on into the future, with no apparent stopping point. What about the poor kids who came in 2008? 2018? There’s a reason no country has a rule that if you sneak in as a minor, you’re a citizen. We’d be inviting the world. Second, it would have knock-on effects. Under “chain migration” rules established in 1965 — ironically as a sop to conservatives, who foolishly thought that they’d boost European inflows — new citizens can bring in their siblings and adult children, who can bring in their siblings and in-laws, until whole villages have moved to the United States. That means today’s 690,000 dreamers would quickly become millions of newcomers, who may well be low-skilled and who would almost certainly include the parents who brought them — the ones who, in theory, are at fault. There are obvious, sensible ways to control these side effects. Pair any dreamer amnesty with a major upgrade to our system to prevent a new undocumented wave — such as a mandatory extension of E-Verify, the system that lets employers check on the legal status of hires. Curtail the right to bring in distant relatives. Sen. Tom Cotton (R-Ark.) has proposed such a compromise — and it would be easy to compromise on his compromise, say by cutting back on chain migration only by the number of people that the new Dream Act adds to the citizenry. The president could declare a one-time act of mercy for those who came here during the pre-Trump Era of Laxity, but make clear the game was changed for future entrants. Why wouldn’t Democrats jump at such a deal? For years they’ve been touting “comprehensive immigration reform,” a mix of amnesty with stepped-up enforcement to prevent another undocumented surge. But the Dream Act is uncomprehensive. It’s all amnesty, no prevention — let alone any compensating reduction in legal inflows. It’s hard to avoid the thought that Democrats (and Republicans who support the Dream Act) aren’t really interested in preventing illegal inflows. They’re not inclined to take Cotton up on his deal because they don’t think they have to. If they win, we’ll get the compassion without dealing with its consequences. That would be especially unfortunate given the signs that Trump’s immigration crackdown, simply stepping up enforcement of current laws, is already helping to tighten the low end of the labor market and boost wages of low-skilled workers. News organizations are featuring stories from employers who aren’t getting their usual supply of undocumented workers and are forced to take radical measures — such as raising wages. Proof of this connection, in the public mind, may be what terrifies the pro-immigration lobby the most.)

We desperately crave refuge from the long march of black men who have been murdered and maimed by police brutality and misconduct, as our political “leaders” looked the other way. Black folks vainly seek salvation from economically crippled communities where poverty is pervasive and economic options are slim to none. Black people don’t begrudge help for their immigrant brothers and sisters. People of color are in this together, striving and sweating under the vicious heel of bigotry. But black voters, the Democratic Party’s most loyal constituency, wonder: What about sanctuary for us?)

One suburban government already laid plans to twist through a loophole and preserve itself. Taxpayers, you might want to pay attention to this heist, which McHenry County Board Chairman Jack Franks, a Democrat, attributes to one-party rule. No, not Democratic rule in Cook County. Franks indicts Republican Party dominance in McHenry County.)

CHICAGO TRIBUNE
— Rauner facing pressure from Downstate Republicans to veto ‘very reasonable’ immigration bill – Monique Garcia and Kim Geiger  (DIERSEN: It certainly seems like Rauner’s advisors are saying to him that he has to dump the “conservative wing” of the Illinois Republican Party and pander to Libertarians to win in 2018. Libertarians want open borders, pot, and prostitution. It certainly seems like his advisors are saying to him that the more that he dumps on conservatives, that is, on Republicans, that is, on Trump supporters, the more votes that he will get in 2018 from voters who are Libertarian, 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. But the aforesaid are going to vote for the Democrat gubernatorial candidate no matter what Rauner or Trump do.)
http://www.chicagotribune.com/news/local/politics/ct-bruce-rauner-trust-act-met-20170819-story.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: But the governor also has faced intense lobbying in opposition from Republican Party’s conservative wing. . .The issue could figure into Rauner’s 2018 re-election bid, as the governor will need the support of Downstate voters, some of whom want to see immigration policy that cracks down on those who are in the country illegally. State Sen. Kyle McCarter, a Republican from Lebanon outside St. Louis, said that if Rauner does not veto the bill “this could be the last straw” for Downstate voters who have backed the governor. “There was a reason the president won so big in Downstate Illinois, this is one of those issues that we stood with the president on,” McCarter said. “I understand it’s a difficult decision for the governor to make, but he’s going to have to decide if this should be the priority, or meeting the basic needs of the legal citizens of Illinois.” McCarter said he has reached out to the governor’s chief of staff to encourage Rauner to veto the bill. “I think I can speak for downstate Illinois and most Trump supporters, this isn’t the direction that I want the country to go or the state to go,” he said. “We are a country founded by immigrants, but those were legal immigrants, and I think the last thing Illinois wants is to see a sanctuary state, and this moves us in that direction.” There are also concerns that the legislation could put Illinois crosswise with the federal government and in the crosshairs of the Trump administration’s attempted crack down on sanctuary cities. Also critical of the bill is Rep. John Cabello, a Republican of Mexican heritage who is a Rockford police detective and also co-chair of the Illinois Trump Victory fund. Cabello said the measure puts police in the position of choosing whether to uphold federal law or state law. “We can’t cherry pick which laws we are going to enforce, it doesn’t matter if this bill is signed into law or not, law enforcement will do what we have to do,” he said. “I think this bill is symbolic, no law enforcement officer is going to follow this bill.” The bill passed with mostly Democratic support. In the Senate, five Republicans voted for the Trust Act. In the House, only one Republican voted for the bill. Supporters of the legislation argue that it will help build trust between police and the immigrant community, and will give immigrants confidence that they can come forward to help police solve crimes without having to worry about being punished because of their immigration status. Cabello disputed that notion. “If people can’t trust law enforcement without this bill, they are not going to trust law enforcement with this bill,” he said.)

They hint/imply/argue/shout that my wife and I have the “ability to pay” higher taxes because I was born with a silver spoon in my mouth and I have always been privileged, because I avoided the draft, because the federal government grossly overpaid me, because my wife and I gave up trying to have children, we did not adopt, and we did not become foster parents, and because my federal retirement benefits are much too generous. My critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes side with Madigan.)

http://www.nationalreview.com/corner/449785/smuggling-deaths-what-blame
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Without E-Verify and worksite enforcement, we send the message that hiring illegal aliens is okay. Without prosecution of immigration-related Social Security fraud and tax fraud we send the message that lying and cheating is okay. Without tracking the departure of temporary visitors, and following up on those who overstay, we send the message that violating the terms of admission is okay. Foreigners hear that message loud and clear, which is why they’re so willing to pay criminals to smuggle them here.)

And How Should They Do It? – Jeff Neal  (DIERSEN: My critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes side with my Democrat superiors in the federal government against me.  Constructively, my Democrat GAO superiors fired me in 1997 when I was 49 years old. Since then, my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes have used that to viciously demonize me, to viciously denigrate me, and to condemn me. Further, they stress a) that my Democrat GAO superiors 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 pay cut in today’s dollars to transfer from IRS to GAO in 1980; b) that 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; and c) that my Democrat Post Office superiors forced me resign in 1969 and disallowed my sick leave requests in 1969 and 1968.)

They would stress that during those years, very few depended on government, on charity, or on welfare and that Crete was overwhelmingly White, German-American, Lutheran, conservative, and Republican.)
http://www.dailyherald.com/discuss/20170722/the-soapbox-daily-herald-editors-offer-brief-thoughts-on-suburban-topics-in-the-news
(FROM THE EDITORIAL: Each week the Northern Illinois Food Bank feeds more than 71,500 people in 13 counties. It relies on hundreds of people, including volunteers. This week about 250 people from Kellogg’s pitched in to pack food. Kellogg’s also donated $10,000 toward hunger relief programs. Yet another ray of sunshine keeps the food bank thriving. I should write a book about the leading Crete-haters in Wheaton and in Glen Ellyn.)

During my last 4 years at GAO 1993-1997, I reported directly to a GS-15 Step 10 (currently $161,900). Most, if not virtually all of my GAO superiors, supervisors, coworkers, and subordinates DID NOT want to work for her or work with her because she was very demanding, female, younger, Jewish, and wealthy. She had an MBA from the University of Chicago and had passed the CPA examination on her first attempt. To turn her against me, my Democrat GAO superiors, supervisors, coworkers, and subordinates stressed to her that I was conservative (she was liberal), Republican (she was Democrat), I was 100% German national origin (she was 100% Russian national origin), I was baptized, raised, and confirmed as a Missouri Synod Lutheran (she was Jewish), and that my ancestors had been in America since the 1840s (her ancestors were recent immigrants).)

That part-time income helped me a) help support my mother and brother, b) pay for tuition and books for graduate business classes at Loyola, c) pay off my 1972 Corvette car loan, and d) have a down payment to buy a new town home in University Park in September of 1972.)

— After Election, More New Yorkers Tell Volunteer Groups, ‘I Can Help’ – JAMES BARRON  (DIERSEN: Anti-Trumps always glorify and praise other anti-Trumps. If anti-Trumps are glorified and praised in your municipality, in your township/ward, in your county, in Illinois, and in America, then your municipality, your township/ward, your county, Illinois, and America are run by anti-Trumps. From what I see, overwhelmingly, those who are glorified and praised in Wheaton, in Milton Township, in DuPage County, in Illinois, and in America are anti-Trumps. Because I am a Trump supporter, anti-Trumps in Wheaton, in Milton Township, in DuPage County, in Illinois, and in America a) demonize, denigrate, and condemn me and b) demonize, denigrate, and condemn what I do.)

BREITBART
— AP Hires Leftist Activist as Freelancer to Sneak Into Closed Press NH GOP Event to Attack KellyAnne Conway – PENNY STARR  (DIERSEN: I should write a book about Democrat plant, Libertarian plant,  and RINO activists, candidates, elected officials, party leaders, major donors, political consultants, etc. in Wheaton, in Glen Ellyn, in Milton Township, in DuPage County, and in Illinois a) who do not want me to know about their events or their other activities, b) who do not want me to promote their events or their other activities, c) who do not want me to attend their events, and d) who do not want me to report on their events or their other activities.)
http://www.breitbart.com/big-government/2017/05/22/reporter-attends-and-falsely-reports-on-closed-press-gop-fundraiser/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: A freelancer for the Associated Press has drawn the ire of the GOP in New Hampshire after working her way into a “closed press” fundraiser last week and then falsely reporting on the event–all after it turns out that the so-called “reporter” is actually a hardcore leftwing activist. Following the fundraiser, the Associated Press published a short story without a byline that was “grossly inaccurate,” NHGOP adviser Patrick Hynes told local television outlet WMUR-9. “President Donald Trump’s counselor Kellyanne Conway has told supporters in New Hampshire they should ‘just ignore’ his critics and the incessant chatter about the scandals dogging him,” the “reporter,” later learned to be Melanie Plenda, wrote for the AP. The report also said about 150 attended, and attendees were “largely friendly” to Conway, but “some people in attendance withheld applause when Conway let loose with snarky comments about Democrat Hillary Clinton.” “The Associated Press in New Hampshire appears to be engaged in leftwing activism rather than journalism,” Hynes told Breitbart News. “And Melanie Plenda is a leftwing activist not a journalist.” “They conspired to sneak this leftwing activist into an event for which they were not credentialed and deliberately misreported on the attendance and the enthusiasm with which Kellyanne Conway was greeted,” Hynes said. “Republicans across the country should be aware that the AP cannot be trusted to be fair and balanced,” Hynes said. Breitbart News has obtained a screenshot of Plenda’s Facebook page from Nov. 10, 2016–just days after Donald Trump won the presidential election–that shows her making an explicit call to action against the then-incoming Trump administration.)

https://www.bloomberg.com/politics/articles/2017-05-23/trump-seeks-3-6-trillion-in-spending-cuts-to-reshape-government
(FROM THE ARTICLE: President Donald Trump made an impassioned plea for support from minority voters during his election campaign by asking them, “What do you have to lose?” On Tuesday, they got an answer, as did many of the rural, poor and working-class voters who propelled him into office. In his fiscal 2018 budget proposal, Trump asked Congress for $3.6 trillion in spending cuts that would mean steep reductions in food stamps, Medicaid health insurance payments, disability benefits, low-income housing assistance and block grants that fund meals-on-wheels for the elderly. The plan found little favor in Congress, even among Republican lawmakers from districts and states that gave Trump wide margins in the November election, and it had Democrats talking about a deal on spending that would exclude the White House.)
