POLITICO

QUESTION: Who will Democrats and Democrat plants, Libertarians and Libertarian plants, Greens and Green plants, and RINOs blame those losses on? ANSWER: Those who voted Ives in the primary and those who are Trump supporters, Protestant, conservative, patriotic, Republican, American, White, male, older, non-poor, gun owners, German American, draft avoiders, and/or those whose ancestors have been in America for a long time. Will the blamers succeed in striking the traditional family, right to life, immigration, Second Amendment, and the rest of the planks in the Illinois Republican Party (IRP) platform? Will the blamers succeed in banishing from the IRP all those who support the aforesaid planks? Will the blamers succeed in dissolving the IRP?)
https://www.politico.com/newsletters/morning-score/2018/10/29/white-house-braces-for-midterm-house-loss-392798
(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.’)

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.)

Gringrich’s not protecting GAO employees like me means that he believes in “up-or-out,” namely, that non-veteran White male federal employees who do not make GS-13 (currently $96,403) by age 25, GS-14 (currently $113,920) by age 30, GS-15 (currently $134,000) by age 35, and Senior Executive Service (currently $164,200) by age 40 are losers who should be gotten rid of.)

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. They were furious when I got her appointed the board of directors of IIT’s Financial Markets and Trading Master’s Degree Program.)

https://www.chicagotribune.com/news/sns-bc-us–media-facing-hostility-20181029-story.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: While President Donald Trump ‘s attacks on the media are usually centered on national outlets like CNN and The New York Times, the attitudes unleashed have filtered down to journalists on the street covering news in local communities across the country. When a president describes the press as enemies of the people, “attitudes shift and the field crews get the brunt of the abuse,” she wrote. “And it’s not just from one side. We get it all the way around, pretty much on a daily basis.” The Radio Television Digital News Association is spreading safety and self-defense tips to journalists, most notably advising limits on the use of one-person news crews. The RTDNA has begun compiling anti-press incidents, like last week when an intruder was shot after kicking down glass doors at Fox’s local station in Washington. The National Press Photographers Association is developing workshops to spread safety advice to its members.)

— Why Not ‘Trump Retirement Accounts’? If you want to cut middle-class taxes, go where the money is: Social Security – Tom Giovanetti (DIERSEN: To get my Civil Service Retirement System (CSRS) pension, I paid 7% of my federal salary into the CSRS.)
https://www.wsj.com/articles/why-not-trump-retirement-accounts-1541025589
(FROM THE ARTICLE: To stir up excitement before the midterms, President Trump last week said he plans to cut middle-class taxes again in the coming year. The trouble is that Republicans have been so successful in cutting taxes in recent years that 44% of Americans no longer pay any federal income tax at all, and many more pay very little. After last year’s tax reform, a family of four earning $80,000 a year could pay as little as $2,300 in income tax: an effective 3% rate. A further 10% cut wouldn’t amount to much. On the other hand, low- and middle-income workers do send the government a large share of their earnings in the form of payroll taxes. That same family of four pays $12,240 at the 15.3% combined rate for Social Security and Medicare. If you want to cut taxes for middle-class and low-income workers, that’s where you have to do it. But instead of an impotent income-tax cut or, say, a payroll-tax cut of 4% of income, why not redirect that same 4% into personal retirement accounts for every worker? Call them “Trump Retirement Accounts.” With no decline in disposable income, American workers would suddenly be investing for retirement at market rates in accounts they own and control, instead of relying on Congress to keep Social Security solvent.)

— Pre-Existing Conditions Have Become One of the Hottest 2018 Midterm Election Issues. Here’s What Is at Stake – ELIZABETH O’BRIEN (DIERSEN: What pre-existing conditions do you have? I have type 2 diabetes. I am obese (BMI 30.7). My vision cannot be corrected to 20/30, let alone 20/20. I need cataract surgery on both eyes. I have partial red/green color blindness. I do not get enough exercise. I sit in a chair 10+ hours each and every day putting GOPUSA ILLINOIS emails together and sending them out. Because I am a federal retiree, my wife and I pay only $6,000/year for $24,000/year worth of health, dental, and vision insurance. Knowing that federal retirees and their spouses have lifetime membership in the Federal Employees Health Benefits (FEHB) Program (https://www.opm.gov/healthcare-insurance/healthcare/) helped me endure the many negatives associated with being a federal employee for almost 30 years.)

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

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.)

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.)

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.)

— American anti-Semitism: It’s getting worse – Jennifer Rubin (DIERSEN: Many of my Democrat GAO superiors, supervisors, coworkers, and subordinates were anti-Semitic. Many of the aforesaid did not want to supervise, work with, or work for the Jewish woman who I volunteered to work for in 1990 and continued to work for until she and my other Democrat superiors succeeded in forcing me to take their early retirement “offer” in 1997 when I was 49 years old. 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. They were furious when I got her appointed the board of directors of IIT’s Financial Markets and Trading Master’s Degree Program.)

— 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? For me, it is my Democrat superiors’ success in wasting my federal career and forcing me to take their early retirement “offer” in 1997 when I was 49 years old. The chances my developing PTSD because of that increases every time those who claim to be religious, conservative, and/or Republican make it clear that they side with my Democrat superiors.)
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.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: The Hatch Act restricts federal employee participation in certain partisan political activities. The political activity restrictions apply during the entire time of an employee’s federal service. Certain rules prohibit both on-duty and off-duty conduct. Partisan political activities are those activities directed at the success or failure of a political party, candidate for partisan political office, or partisan political group. While most Federal employees are permitted to take an active part in partisan political management and partisan political campaigns, the Hatch Act does prohibit certain participation by all Federal employees. Federal employees may not seek public office in partisan elections, use their official title or authority when engaging in political activity, solicit or receive contributions for partisan political candidates or groups, and engage in political activity while on duty.)

CHICAGO TRIBUNE
— FRONT PAGE: In 6th District, Democrat Sean Casten says remarks on Trump’s tactics he’s apologized for ‘needed to be said’ – Patrick M. O’Connell and Mike Riopell (DIERSEN: According to this article, “Roskam has said Casten’s campaign demeanor reflects Trump’s temperament.” What do you say those around Roskam who hint/imply/argue/shout that I reflect Trump’s temperament and even worse things? They have done everything that they can a) to stop me from finding out about Roskam’s press conferences, b) to stop me from attending and reporting on Roskam’s press conferences, and c) stop me from attending and reporting on Roskam’s fundraisers. These newcoming scapegoaters blame me and my GOPUSA ILLINOIS emails for Roskam’s problems, for their problems, for your problems, for my problems, and for everyone’s problems. I have been helping elect and reelect Roskam since 2000. Both Roskam and Hultgren endorsed me when I first ran for Republican Precinct Committeeman in 2000.)

— Ives urges vote for legislative candidates, not governor – Rick Pearson
http://www.chicagotribune.com/news/local/politics/ct-met-fritz-kaegi-democratic-mailer-20181022-story.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: State Rep. Jeanne Ives, the Wheaton Republican who lost a March bid for the GOP nomination for governor to Rauner by 3 percentage points, is urging a vote for Republican legislative candidates and not Illinois’ chief executive. In an appearance on KFTK-FM 97.1, a conservative talk station in the St. Louis suburb of Florrisant, Mo., that reaches southwestern Illinois, Ives criticized both Rauner and Republican state Sen. Sam McCann of Plainview who is running for governor under the Conservative Party banner. “The Republican Party’s in complete disarray. Let’s face it, Rauner’s going to lose, in my estimation,” Ives said, adding, “So, the fight is in the Illinois House and in the Illinois Senate. Those are your first line of defense against the bad policies going forward.” Ives, who has not endorsed a candidate for governor, said there are Republicans “all over the place as to what they’re going to do on the governor’s race,” in part because of Rauner’s signature on laws expanding abortion, immigration and transgender rights. She said people who thought they “could find a conservative in Sam McCann” shouldn’t trust the state senator because of mailers he’s sending out attacking some social conservatives as backers of Rauner and of being less than Republicans. “So now conservatives have been betrayed once again and they have no place to go,” Ives said.)

KIPLINGER
— Retirees, Go Ahead and Spend a Little (More) Successful savers have prospered by living below their means. Frugality often becomes a preference—sometimes to an excessive degree. – ANNE KATES SMITH (DIERSEN: Since my Democrat GAO superiors succeeded in forcing me to take their early retirement “offer” in 1997 when I was 49 years old, I have been able to increase my retirement saving because of my wife’s income.)
https://www.kiplinger.com/article/spending/T031-C023-S002-how-frugal-retirement-savers-can-spend-wisely.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: A recent study by the Employee Benefit Research Institute found that the majority of retirees are spending down their assets surprisingly slowly during the first two decades of retirement. People who retired with $200,000 to $500,000 in savings, not including their homes, had spent a bit more than one-fourth of their assets, EBRI found. Those with more assets — $500,000 or more — had parted with even less, spending down less than 12% of savings over a 20-year span. And about one-third of the retirees in the study increased their savings over the period.)

— After Rauner: Ricketts, the IMA and the future of the Illinois GOP The shift of millions of dollars in dark money suggests the fight for control of the Illinois Republican Party is on, with implications for Chicago’s mayoral race, too. – GREG HINZ (DIERSEN: He who pays the piper calls the tunes. As everyone knows, anti-conservatives have always a) dominated the Illinois Republican Party (IRP) and b) blamed conservatives for all losses that Republicans have suffered in Illinois. Those anti-conservatives want the IRP a) to officially demonize, denigrate, condemn, and banish Trump, b) to officially banish Trump supporters from the IRP, c) to officially strike the traditional family, right to life, immigration, and Second Amendment planks from the IRP platform, d) to officially promote LGBTQ activity, abortion, mass/illegal immigration, abolition of the Second Amendment, booze, gambling, pot, and other vices, etc., and e) to officially banish conservatives, that is, Republicans, from the IRP.)
https://www.chicagobusiness.com/greg-hinz-politics/after-rauner-ricketts-ima-and-future-illinois-gop
(FROM THE ARTICLE: All of this is occurring as Republican chatter builds about what will happen after Rauner and the tens of millions of dollars he’s plowed into the party are gone. Ricketts reportedly is interested in stepping up his activity, perhaps with Griffin as a partner, insiders say. The Ricketts clan does have quite a political pedigree, with Todd Ricketts’ brother, Pete Ricketts, now the governor of Nebraska, and his sister, Laura Ricketts, a leading national Democratic donor. Chairman Schneider, in an interview, said his term has well over three more years to run and “at this point,” he expects to complete it. But he conceded that considerable concern about the future is being raised in a party in which conservative activist state Rep. Jeanne Ives almost defeated Rauner in the March primary, and conservative activist Dan Proft, with help from wealthy businessman Dick Uhlein, has been running millions of ads on behalf of Illinois House candidates he says will be independent of both Rauner and Democratic House Speaker Mike Madigan. “I definitely think there will be a change in leadership of the party after Rauner loses,” Ives says. “I expect to sit with all parts of the party after the election,” Schneider told me. “We’ll put our collective heads together to try to sort out things should work together.” As for Ricketts—a spokesman denied to Politico that he or his family are involved in dark money activities—I wish we had a lot of people like Todd,” Schneider said. “He’s a great guy.”)

SOUTHERN
— Rep. Bost’s office confirms Trump visit to (Murphysboro) October 27 – ISAAC SMITH (DIERSEN: How would the religious, government, political, and financial leaders in your municipality, in your township/ward, and in your county react if Trump came to your municipality, to your township/ward, or to your county?)
https://thesouthern.com/news/local/govt-and-politics/rep-bost-s-office-confirms-trump-visit-to-carbondale/article_01a5645f-e92a-5e71-8e47-3e5d007a1f3e.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: This sparked outcry from some on City Council. Councilman Adam Loos drafted a four-page resolution declaring Trump unwelcome. However, he later rescinded his request to have it placed on Tuesday’s City Council agenda because some council members withdrew support for the resolution. It wouldn’t have mattered, because after deep consideration and notification that there would be considerable civil disobedience from people supporting and opposing the president’s visit, Mayor Mike Henry canceled Tuesday’s council meeting, electing to reschedule it after Trump’s visit. Henry said there was not a threat of violence, but those from the community action group The Flyover Social Center disagreed. The group, which is vocally opposed to Trump’s visit and politics, on Saturday received a business card for white supremacist group Patriot Front. They took this as a subtle threat of violence against their group.)

I should make a list of all the Republican candidates who have been on Republican primary ballots and general election ballots in my precinct since 2000 who have lost and ask them if they agree with my critics/opponents that me and my GOPUSA ILLINOIS emails caused their defeat.)

— With members getting Trump-averse, the federal workers union targets midterms Defending what Newt Gingrich blasted as “the job for life,” federal civil servants join the battle for the midterms – BOB HENNELLY (DIERSEN: If Gingrich had not decimated GAO during the 1990s, I might still be a GAO employee.)
https://www.salon.com/2018/10/21/with-members-getting-trump-averse-the-federal-workers-union-targets-midterms/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Among those with the most at stake in the Congressional midterm elections are the rank and file of the unions that represent the Federal Government’s two-million-member workforce. Since President Trump took office 21 months ago, they have been the target of him and allies like former House Speaker Newt Gingrich, who served on his transition team. Mr. Gingrich urged the President to wage a “straight-out war” aimed at ending what he called “the job for life” with the Federal civil service. Mr. Trump has canceled a Federal pay raise, proposed budgets to cut workers’ health and retirement benefits and issued executive orders to eliminate employee protections that evolved over decades of collective bargaining.)

My vision cannot be corrected to 20/30, let alone 20/20. I need cataract surgery on both eyes. I have partial red/green color blindness. I do not get enough exercise. I sit in a chair 10+ hours each and every day putting GOPUSA ILLINOIS emails together and sending them out. Because I am a federal retiree, my wife and I pay only $6,000/year for $24,000/year worth of health, dental, and vision insurance. Knowing that federal retirees and their spouses have lifetime membership in the Federal Employees Health Benefits (FEHB) Program (https://www.opm.gov/healthcare-insurance/healthcare/) helped me endure the many negatives associated with being a federal employee for almost 30 years.)

NBC NEWS
— Americans are divided over everything except division Across a broad collection of groups – Democrats and Republicans, Clinton voters and Trump voters – more than 70 percent say the nation is divided. – Dante Chinni and Sally Bronston (DIERSEN: What do you say to those who say that they are religious, conservative, and/or Republican AND who ever-increasingly blame Trump and blame his supporters like me for their problems?)
https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/first-read/americans-are-divided-over-everything-except-division-n922511
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The poll asked respondents who they blame for the nation’s disunited state and when you look at their answers through the frame of Donald Trump’s presidency, sharp divisions emerge. Among the 30 percent of respondents in the poll who strongly approve of President Trump’s job performance, there is a pretty clear line of blame for the nation’s divided nature. The “Democratic Party/Liberals” lead the way with this group, as one might expect. Next on the list is former President “Barack Obama.” Trump’s supporters also cast a somewhat wider net. They give some blame to “Godless”ness, “The Media,” and “The People/General Public of America.” Some even go as far as mentioning “Donald Trump,” but on the whole, there is a distinct partisan cast to the list. On the other side of the Trump divide, the 43 percent who strongly disapprove of President Trump’s job performance, we can see an even clearer picture. Donald Trump’s name stands apart from every other option on the list of potential causes with this group. Following behind the president is the “Republican Party/Conservatives” but no other answer rates very high. This is a distinctly blue view of the nation’s disunity. And among the 27 percent of respondents who neither strongly approve nor disapprove of Trump’s job performance, the president takes most of the blame, but his opponents take a hit as well.)
