PJ MEDIA
— Disagreeing With Biden’s Transgender Policy Is ‘Incitement’ Now?! Facebook Says So… – TYLER O’NEIL
https://pjmedia.com/news-and-politics/tyler-o-neil/2021/01/26/disagreeing-with-bidens-transgender-policy-is-incitement-now-facebook-says-so-n1411958
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Ironically, Gagnon’s post drew attention to Facebook’s suspension of his friend, Laurie Higgins, who got a 7-day ban for criticizing Biden’s policy. “There was absolutely no incitement to violence on our part. We abhor violence done to any person,” Gagnon told PJ Media on Tuesday. “This is just a thinly veiled and pathetic excuse for censorship of any critical views toward trans-tyranny over our consciences, religion, and reason.” Only one point of view is being allowed,” he added, ominously. “Trump was not the great danger to the Republic. Left-wing canceling is.” Gagnon, who holds a Ph.D. in Pauline theology and sexuality from Princeton Theological Seminary, has published “The Bible and Homosexual Practice: Texts and Hermeneutics.” He teaches as a professor of New Testament Theology at Houston Baptist University. In the post Facebook flagged, Gagnon had defended Higgins’ response to Biden’s pro-transgender military policy.)

Even Politico is beginning to see through its own bias enough to understand this, as noted by Jack Shafer in his recent piece: “How About a Little Sobriety Please?” In the column, Shafer says, “At a time when large portions of the country think mainstream media is a tool of the left, perhaps it’s time to tone down the Biden adulation.”)

— Biden to sign executive actions on equity – Cleve R. Wootson Jr. and Tracy Jan (DIERSEN: My critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes have always hinted/implied/argued/shouted a) that instead of me, the Post Office should have hired a Black in 1966, b) that the Post Office should gotten rid of me much sooner than it did so that a Black could have my job, c) that instead of me, IRS should have hired a Black in 1971, d) that instead of me, IRS should have promoted Blacks in 1972, 1973, and 1974, e) that instead of me, GAO should have hired a Black in 1980, f) that instead of me, GAO should have promoted a Black in 1986, and g) that GAO should have gotten rid of me much sooner than it did so that a Black could have my job and my preferred corner office. My plan for a career in the automotive industry ended in 1971 when Oldsmobile withdrew a job offer that I had accepted saying that Oldsmobile had just agreed to stop hiring Whites to settle an EEOC complaint.

(FROM THE ARTICLE: Black Americans trail Whites on every economic measure, including wealth, income, employment and homeownership. The disparities have existed for decades, even when comparing workers with similar education levels. The gaps, economists say, stem in large part from government-sanctioned policies that continue to discriminate against Black people in lending, housing, education and criminal justice.)

WIREPOINTS
— Bias Promoted: Illinois Political Reporter Natasha Korecki Goes To The White House – Mark Glennon
https://wirepoints.org/bias-gets-a-promotion-illinois-political-reporter-natasha-korecki-goes-to-the-white-house-wirepoints/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: It’s emblematic of what’s been happening in the national press. Natasha Korecki was promoted last week to White House correspondent for Politico. Until 2018, she covered Illinois government for the Chicago Sun-Times and later Politico’s Illinois operation. During her years covering Illinois politics we consistently singled her out as the most overtly biased and deceitful reporters in the state. Most of the Illinois media, at the time, was far more biased than today, though problems remain. In the meantime, most of the national media descended into something often far more sinister than bias, routinely ignoring and distorting news that doesn’t fit its political narrative. Korecki’s worst was directed at Bruce Rauner during his campaign and term as governor. It’s not like criticizing Rauner couldn’t have been accomplished with accurate reporting and fair commentary. We, too, quickly soured on him and our criticism was harsh. But Korecki showed little interest in facts and fairness.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: The new vice president of the United States called the liberal mobs who ransacked cities this summer “social justice warriors.” Apparently, it is excusable to burn down a building or assault a police officer if you are protesting racial injustice, climate change, abortion rights or cuts in social programs. The Trump Haters say that the rioters who stormed the U.S. Capitol are guilty of a treasonable offense. OK, but several years ago, when many thousands of “social justice warriors” (i.e., union thugs) stormed past the police and occupied the domed Capital building in Madison for days, the media celebrated.)

It would be great if they would get together, maybe in the Wheaton Bowl Banquet Hall, go through all the articles, and identify the top 10, 50, 100, 500, 1,000, or more articles that they dislike the most. I expect that many of the most disliked articles are posted on certain websites and/or were written by certain authors.

— President Biden’s age shouldn’t matter. But it does, at least for me. – JERRY DAVICH (DIERSEN: How old are you? I am 72. All my critics/opponents, all their operatives and all their dupes promote age discrimination. In my defense, I stress that no health problem or any other kind of problem has stopped me from putting together and sending out a GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletter each and every morning since 2004 and each and every evening since 2015. That is 7,718 newsletters. Those newsletters have included links to more than 390,590 articles and information on many upcoming events.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: I’ve learned that ageism and age stereotyping are very real prejudices in our society. I’m guilty of both on occasion, including my feelings about President Joe Biden. His age, 78, was one of my biggest concerns toward his candidacy for president. It had nothing to do with his physical body or his determination to serve in office, only his mind. As he begins serving his four-year term, will he have the razor-sharp mental acuity needed for such a challenging job position, long day after long day?)

— Do You Have A Plan for Your Life? – Tim Hetzner (DIERSEN: What plans have you had? My plan for a Post Office career ended in 1969 when my Democrat Post Office superiors succeeded in forcing me to resign. My plan for a career in the automotive industry ended in 1971 when Oldsmobile withdrew a job offer that I had accepted saying that Oldsmobile had just agreed to stop hiring Whites to settle an EEOC complaint. My plan for an IRS career ended in 1974 when my Democrat IRS superiors disallowed my partial day per diem claims and it further ended in 1975 when they got rid of my mentor, in 1978 when they disallowed my education deductions, and when they made it clear that they would never promote me to GS-13. My plan for a GAO career ended in 1980 when my Democrat GAO superiors forced me to take a $20,361 (21%) pay cut in today’s dollars to transfer from IRS to GAO and it further ended when they kept me off audits of IRS for all but 3 of the almost 18 years that I worked for GAO, in 1987 when they got rid of my mentor and made it clear that they would never promote me to GS-14, when they gave me unfair performance expectations and appraisals and always ranked me in the bottom half of my coworkers for pay-for-performance purposes, and when they forced me to retire in 1997 when I was 49 years old.)

SUN JOURNAL
— Who are the rioters who stormed the Capitol on Jan. 6? Ostensibly protesting an election they may have thought was stolen, their actions fed a larger set of goals that American militants are seizing upon to take more extreme action. – JEFF INGLIS
https://www.sunjournal.com/2021/01/24/who-are-the-rioters-who-stormed-the-capitol-on-jan-6/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: What is the ‘boogaloo’? “QAnon followers, the Proud Boys and the other far-right and alt-right groups that converged on Washington imagined that they were living out the great fantasy that underlies what many consider to be the bible of the white nationalism movement, a 1978 dystopian novel, ‘The Turner Diaries,’ by William Luther Pierce,” writes Jonathan D. Sarna, a scholar of anti-Semitism at Brandeis University. “The novel depicts the violent overthrow of the government of the United States, nuclear conflagration, race war and the ultimate extermination of nonwhites and ‘undesirable racial elements among the remaining White population,’” he explains. This widespread and extremely violent conflagration is often called the “boogaloo” by its adherents.)

LANCASTER ONLINE
— Lancaster County conservatives ponder what it means to be Republican, direction of the party in post-Trump era – CARTER WALKER and GILLIAN McGOLDRICK (DIERSEN: 2,446,891 in Illinois voted for Trump. 193,611 in DuPage County voted for Trump. 20,080 in Milton Township voted for Trump. 157 in my precinct voted for Trump. In Illinois, in DuPage County, in Milton Township, and in Wheaton, hate-filled Trump-hating Trump-haters want everyone to punish Trump a) by voting for Democrats in the April 6, 2021 election, b) by demonizing, denigrating, and condemning their Republican Precinct Committeeman/Captain, and c) by demonizing, denigrating, and condemning all the Republicans who represent them in Illinois, DuPage County, Milton Township, and Wheaton.)
https://lancasteronline.com/news/politics/lancaster-county-conservatives-ponder-what-it-means-to-be-republican-direction-of-the-party-in/article_4ef7c0aa-5d13-11eb-a1b9-27885db06829.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: On the one hand are those who were horrified by the Jan. 6 attack and the no-holds-barred efforts to overturn Trump’s loss in the two months after the election. On the other are staunch Trump supporters who believe local GOP officials didn’t do enough to support the president’s fight. The most outspoken of those expressing these opposite views say they can no longer support the Republican Party as it exists today. As a result, the Lancaster County GOP saw hundreds of its registered voters leave the party in the first half of January. In the week of the Jan. 6 attack, 249 Lancaster County Republicans switched their registration to other parties. Of those, 146 became Democrats. These party switches continued into the following week: From Jan. 11 to Jan. 18, 87 Lancaster County Republicans switched their registration to other parties, with 76 becoming Democrats, according to county Pennsylvania Department of State data. For all of 2020, 858 GOP voters in the county switched to other parties, meaning that in just the first two week of 2021 the party lost nearly 40% of the number of voters it lost to other parties in the entire preceding year. Although the party’s margin has narrowed over the past decade, Republicans still make up a slim majority of the county’s registered voters, currently 51.4%, giving the party a firm grasp on elected offices up and down the ballot outside Lancaster city and its suburbs, blue dots on the county’s otherwise dark red political terrain.)

— Section 230’s unconstitutional delegation of power to Big Tech – WILLIAM L. KOVACS (DIERSEN: My critics/opponents want Google, Facebook, etc. to regulate my speech. In addition, they want the Illinois Republican Party, DuPage County Republican Central Committee, Milton Township Republican Organization, Illinois, DuPage County, Milton Township, and Wheaton to regulate my speech. They want the aforesaid to take adverse actions against me if I include links to articles in GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters that they do not like.)
https://thehill.com/opinion/technology/535497-section-230s-unconstitutional-delegation-of-power-to-big-tech
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Two questions must be answered: Can private parties controlling the public square deprive citizens of their right to free speech? and Can Congress empower private parties to regulate competitors? What does section 230 do? Section 230 has two primary provisions. The first exempts internet providers from civil liability for publishing any information from another content provider that is objectionable. The second provision exempts Big Tech from liability when it takes voluntary, good faith actions to restrict objectionable materials or provides the technical means to restrict them. Private parties cannot deprive unpopular citizens of constitutional rights when governing the public square: By granting Big Tech immunity from civil liability when restricting material from the internet it deemed objectionable, Congress encouraged and indirectly authorized private parties to regulate speech. Congress has no constitutional power to authorize private parties to deprive even unpopular citizens of their constitutional rights. Moreover, when private parties control the new public square they function as a government and must provide constitutional rights for all.)

— FROM THE ARTICLE: From Sen. Dave Syverson (R-Rockford)…Adam is a friend of mine but in this case he made a mistake. People are very angry with him. They believe he overreacted before doing his homework. Instead of calling out those who broke the law, some who have now been proven not to be Trump supporters he joined Pelosi in a political impeachment not a legal one. Politically it becomes a problem. Locally Democrats are saying he supported Trump’s initiatives all these years and he did this just to try to get cover going into remapping. And Republicans also think the motive was political. He has a difficult road ahead.

https://www.newsmax.com/politics/social-media/2021/01/19/id/1006337/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Social media giants crossed a threshold in banning President Donald Trump and an array of his supporters — and now face a quandary on defining their efforts to remain politically neutral while promoting democracy and free speech. After Jan. 6, with its unprecedented violence in the seat of Congress, Trump was banned for allegedly inciting the rioters — on platforms including Facebook, Twitter, Google-owned YouTube and Snapchat. The alternative network Parler, which drew many Trump backers, was forced offline by Amazon’s web services unit. The bans broke new ground for internet firms but also shattered the longstanding notion that they are simply neutral platforms open for all to express any views. “Banning Donald Trump was a crossing of a Rubicon for social media firms, and they can’t go back,” said Samuel Woolley, a professor and researcher with the University of Texas Center for Media Engagement. “Up to now their biggest goal was to promote free speech, but recent events have shown they can no longer do this.”)

WALL STREET JOURNAL
— Trump Has Discussed Starting a New Political Party – Andrew Restuccia (DIERSEN: From what I see, Democrat plant, Libertarian plant, Green plant, Independent plant, and RINO leaders of Republican organizations a) despise/hate Trump supporters, b) want Trump to start a new political party, and c) will use the Capitol Riot to destroy the Republican Party once and for all.)
https://www.wsj.com/livecoverage/trump-impeachment-biden-inauguration/card/90pPMzFPqr5fMzg1Bkbs
(FROM THE ARTICLE: It’s unclear how serious Mr. Trump is about starting a new party, which would require a significant investment of time and resources. The president has a large base of supporters, some of whom were not deeply involved in Republican politics prior to Mr. Trump’s 2016 campaign. Third parties have typically failed to draw enough support to play a major role in national elections. Any effort to start a new party would likely face intense opposition from Republican party officials, who would chafe at the thought of Mr. Trump peeling off support from GOP candidates.)

KMJN
— NBC News Poll: Voters Bleak on US Track, Future (DIERSEN: From what I see, the more of the following that you are, the more bleak that your future is: law enforcement officer, Trump supporter, conservative, patriotic, Republican, American, White, male, older, heterosexual, married, non-poor, gun owner, Christian, Protestant, Italian American, German American, and/or if your ancestors have been in America for a long time.)
https://www.kmjnow.com/news/nbc-news-poll-voters-bleak-on-us-track-future/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: More than 70% of voters think the country is on the wrong track and that the next four years will remain politically divided — while a majority are pessimistic about America’s future, a new poll showed. The NBC News poll released a day before the Wednesday inauguration of Joe Biden paints a bleak picture of a worried nation. Here’s the breakdown: 73% say the country is on the wrong track. 73% say the United States will remain divided in the next four years. 53% say they’re worried and pessimistic about the nation’s future — the first time that response has been given to the question since 1998. The poll also showed voters find Biden likable and ethical, but didn’t give him high marks on the economy or for sharing their positions on the issues. 39% gave Biden a “4” or “5” on a five-point scaled on the economy; 38% gave him those high marks on sharing their positions on the issues. 55% of voters give Biden a “4” or “5” on a five-point scale of being knowledgeable and experienced enough to handle the presidency, and 53% as being easygoing and likable. 47% gave Biden high marks for having the ability to handle a crisis, and 45% give him high marks for having high personal and ethical standards.)

DAILY BEAST
— Fox News Launches ‘Purge’ to ‘Get Rid of Real Journalists,’ Insiders Say ‘BLOOD BATH’ Fox laid off at least 16 staffers, including Chris Stirewalt, who defended the election-night call that pissed off Trump. Insiders say the firings are part of an ideological purge. – Diana Falzone and Lachlan Cartwright
https://www.thedailybeast.com/fox-news-launches-purge-to-get-rid-of-real-journalists
(FROM THE ARTICLE: But a dozen current and recently departed Fox News employees who spoke with The Daily Beast all said the “purge”—as a few characterized it—was part of the network’s larger effort to pivot its website from straight-news reporting to right-wing opinion content in the mold of Fox’s primetime programming. “There is a concerted effort to get rid of real journalists,” said one recently departed Fox staffer. “They laid capable people off who were actual journalists and not blind followers.” Others said it was an attempt to silence leakers from speaking to outside media about the changes being instituted by Porter Berry, a former producer for Hannity and Bill O’Reilly, who recently transitioned from the TV side to running Fox’s digital properties. “Porter’s uncomfortable around and is suspicious of experienced editors,” one Fox News insider remarked to The Daily Beast. “They make him feel inept because his background is entirely in TV.” “Porter is at the helm,” one current employee declared of the layoffs, while a recently departed staffer said: “This is all Porter. Both an ideological purge and a purge of people he was threatened by.” “It’s essentially the final nail in the coffin for digital journalism at Fox,” another recently departed staffer declared. Though, this former staffer noted, the shift to focusing on right-wing opinion has paid off for Berry. “What has slightly been working for him are recaps of the network’s primetime opinion shows,” the source said, and so the desire is for more “cheap labor to write a dozen 250 word recaps of the network’s primetime shows.”)

— DIERSEN HEADLINE: Hate-filled Trump-hating Trump-haters promote Kinzinger. 2,446,891 in Illinois voted for Trump. 193,611 in DuPage County voted for Trump. 20,080 in Milton Township voted for Trump. 157 in my precinct voted for Trump.

(FROM THE ARTICLE: It’s moderate Republicans like Kinzinger, willing to make a quick and clean break with Trump, who are the future of the state Republican Party. Trump’s loss — finally — is good news for the Illinois GOP. Although he won six of the state’s 18 congressional districts (by between 1.7 and 45.7 percentage points), he lost the other 12 by anywhere from 2.5 to 74 percentage points. Overall, he lost the state by a stunning 17 percentage points, twice. Trump will no longer be a handicap to Republicans in the Chicago suburbs and in places like Champaign County, where he could manage no more than 37 percent of the vote and where the once-dominant GOP lost six countywide offices since Trump became president. Democrats also have gained a pair of seats in both the Illinois House and Senate since 2016. Trump’s loss, combined with the demise of Michael J. Madigan, the longtime Speaker of the House who has bedeviled Republicans in the Legislature for 50 years, makes January 2021 one of the best months for the Illinois GOP in years. The political pendulum may finally be moving in favor of Republicans in the Land of Lincoln.)

https://www.nprillinois.org/post/after-capitol-riot-backlash-sen-josh-hawleys-book-will-hit-shelves-may#stream/0
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Republican Sen. Josh Hawley of Missouri has a new reason to raise a clenched fist in the air: After much controversy, his book The Tyranny of Big Tech will be published. Washington-based Regnery Publishing, which aims to spread the message of “prominent and lasting voices in American conservatism,” announced on Monday it will publish the title in May. “We’re proud to publish Mr. Hawley’s book, which his original publisher has made more important than ever,” Regnery President Thomas Spence, said in a column published in The Wall St. Journal. Spence said he expects the book “will get additional attention,” and added, “We have a long tradition of publishing authors some of the mainstream publishers prefer to ignore.” “We don’t have to agree with everything—or anything—Mr. Hawley does. We ask only if his book is well-crafted and has something true and worthwhile to say. The answer is yes.” The book itself, The Tyranny of Big Tech, makes the argument that mega-tech companies, including Google, Facebook, Amazon, and Apple, wield too much market power and political influence. As a result, he says, these companies are threatening America’s republican form of government by quashing competition while raking in massive profits.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: As for the Republican party going forward, even after losing the election, Donald Trump’s ability to rally his base remained a valuable asset to the GOP. Pickerill said the party is dealing turmoil between Trump backers and more traditional conservatives. “There are obviously more traditional Republicans who don’t like ‘Trumpism’ who would like to get back to a kind of more traditional conservatism and libertarianism, so I think there is going to be a battle,” Pickerill said.)
