If you are White and you seek a government office or a political office, expect that your critics/opponents will use your parents and use their parents against you. What is your home town? What is/was your parents’ home town and your grandparents’ hometown? Crete was my hometown. I lived there 1948-1972. Crete was my father’s hometown and his parents’ hometown. Grant Park was my mother’s hometown and her parent’s hometown. I should write a book about how my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes have used my parents, their parents, Crete, and Grant Park against me. They stress that both Crete and Grant Park were overwhelmingly German American and Missouri Synod Lutheran. They hint/imply/argue/shout that Crete and Grant Park were full of White supremacists, Nazis, KKK members, haters, racists, sexists, bigots, and even worse things.)

TOWNHALL
— Big Tech Censorship is Finally Now Coming After the Rest of Us Conservatives – Rachel Alexander (DIERSEN: My critics/opponents side with Big Tech.)
https://townhall.com/columnists/rachelalexander/2020/10/12/big-tech-censorship-is-finally-now-coming-after-the-rest-of-us-conservatives-n2577864
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Many of us thought “that could never happen to me” when rowdy right-wingers like Laura Loomer and Gavin McInnes were banned from social media. We are careful and polite about what we post. Surely Big Tech sees how reasonable we are and would never come after us too. Not so anymore. Big Tech is now starting to label regular conservative viewpoints as false and using that as justification to censor and even permanently ban us. They are threatening to ban conservatives for posting things that left-leaning fact checkers say have a very remote possibility of not being true. . .Do you see where this is leading? If you say “capitalism leads to prosperity,” that could be “fact-checked” as false because you can always point to poor people. If you say “Christianity saves lives” that could be “fact-checked” as false because some Christians were martyred for their faith. . .Rep. Jim Jordan and other congressional conservatives issued a report this month on Big Tech censorship, focusing on Facebook, Google, Apple, Amazon and Twitter. The report stated, “Big Tech is out to get conservatives. Time and again, Big Tech uses its power to suppress and marginalize conservative voices.” Google was caught blacklisting some of the top conservative media sites in July, noticeably shortly before the election. Notice we’re no longer talking about Infowars and fringe sites. These are the top conservative sites in the country, including Townhall, Breitbart, The Daily Wire and Judicial Watch. . .Jordan and Rep. Matt Gaetz were shadow-banned by Twitter in 2018, but not a single member of the 78-person Progressive Caucus was shadow-banned. RNC chair Ronna McDaniel was shadow-banned, but not the DNC chair. The report lists many incidents of censorship of prominent, regular conservatives, including President Trump. On the other hand, conduct threatening violence on the extreme left is often given a free pass. Tweets by the Ayatollah Khamenei are allowed stating that Iran will reciprocate against the U.S. for the death of Hajj Qasem Soleimani and that Israel will be uprooted and destroyed. . .Many conservatives will still blow this off, saying it’s not censorship because private companies are involved, and we just need to come up with our own competing alternatives. This may be true, but it’s not solving the problem. No platforms fair to conservatives have come anywhere near the competitiveness of the top Big Tech companies. Parler, which President Trump recommended as a social media alternative, has only 2.8 million users. Whereas Facebook has over 2.7 billion users, Instagram has 1 billion and Twitter has 48.35 million. So conservatives are being increasingly shut out of the modern-day version of the public square. . .Something has to change. The left already controls so much of society — education, most of the legal system, traditional media, Hollywood — that the addition of Big Tech will ensure that conservatives never win another election again. It’s just not clear to many of us what is the best way to fight back.)

They would stress that I do not spend all my time on Facebook like they do. They would stress the adverse actions that the Post Office, IRS, and GAO took against me.

— Want More Diverse Senior Leadership? Sponsor Junior Talent. – Herminia Ibarra and Nana von Bernuth (DIERSEN: My Democrat IRS superiors got rid of my IRS mentor who promoted me in 1972, 1973, and 1974. I might still be an IRS employee if my Democrat IRS superiors had not succeeded in doing that.

I might still be a GAO employee if my Democrat GAO superiors had not succeeded in doing that. I earned an MBA from Loyola in 1976, a master’s degree in accounting from DePaul in 1980, and a master’s degree in financial markets and trading from IIT in 1997. I passed the CPA examination on my first attempt in 1979. I passed the Certified Internal Auditor examination on my first attempt in 1981.

— Budget, transparency among issues in Kane auditor election – DAVID SHAROS
https://www.chicagotribune.com/suburbs/aurora-beacon-news/ct-abn-kane-auditor-candidates-st-1011-20201009-eknl34msxrh7rk6kzh5vv37m5e-story.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Terry Hunt, 68, of Big Rock, is looking to continue in the position of county auditor, a job he has held since 2012. Looking at the county, Hunt says concerns include the pandemic and its impact, and concerns about taxes. “COVID has been front and center of everything and is on everyone’s list at this point,” Hunt said. “It impacts people’s lives on so many levels from personal health to the ability to buy food and work. It has overshadowed typical things like taxes.” Property taxes are still an issue, Hunt insists, “as everyone is aware of what they owe” as well as their obligation to pay. If re-elected, Hunt said he wants to continue to “increase financial transparency” as well as “audit each operation in an objective and fair way.” “The auditor’s function is that he’s the only elected official authorized to audit each county operation and it’s a responsibility to the people that elected us as opposed to someone that’s appointed,” he said. Hunt also wants to continue to work with the other team members “to balance the budget” and said he will continue to work on ad hoc committees and other tasks “that go beyond the office” and above “the lowest threshold” of just doing the auditor’s job.)

— In 25th Amendment bid, Pelosi mulls Trump’s fitness to serve after COVID diagnosis – AP
https://abc7chicago.com/politics/in-25th-amendment-bid-pelosi-mulls-trumps-fitness-to-serve/6887500/?cmp=emc-wls-news-headlines-10/9/2020
(FROM THE ARTICLE: House Speaker Nancy Pelosi is questioning President Donald Trump’s fitness to serve, announcing legislation Thursday that would create a commission to allow Congress to intervene under the 25th Amendment to the Constitution and remove the president from executive duties. Just weeks before the Nov. 3 election, Pelosi said Trump needs to disclose more about his health after his COVID-19 diagnosis. She noted Trump’s “strange tweet” halting talks on a new coronavirus aid package – he subsequently tried to reverse course – and said Americans need to know when, exactly, he first contracted COVID as others in the White House became infected. On Friday, she plans to roll out the legislation that would launch the commission for review. “The public needs to know the health condition of the president,” Pelosi said, later invoking the 25th Amendment, which allows a president’s cabinet or Congress to intervene when a president is unable to conduct the duties of the office. Trump responded swiftly via Twitter. “Crazy Nancy is the one who should be under observation. They don’t call her Crazy for nothing!” the president said. The president’s opponents have discussed invoking the 25th Amendment for some time, but are raising it now, so close to Election Day, as the campaigns are fast turning into a referendum on Trump’s handling of the coronavirus pandemic. More than 210,000 Americans have died and millions more infected by the virus that shows no signs of abating heading into what public health experts warn will be a difficult flu season and winter. Trump says he “feels great” after being hospitalized and is back at work in the White House. But his doctors have given mixed signals about his diagnosis and treatment. Trump plans to resume campaigning soon. Congress is not in legislative session, and so any serious consideration of the measure, let alone votes in the House or Senate, is unlikely. But the bill serves as a political tool to stoke questions about Trump’s health as his own White House is hit by an outbreak infecting top aides, staff and visitors, including senators. In a stunning admission, Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell said Thursday that he had stopped going to the White House two months ago because he disagreed with its coronavirus protocols. His last visit was Aug. 6.)

ACCOUNTING TODAY
— Diversity in accounting: An ethical, social and practical imperative – Avani M. Desai
https://www.accountingtoday.com/opinion/diversity-in-accounting-an-ethical-social-and-practical-imperative

(FROM THE ARTICLE: Serving in an attractive profession that offers great earning potential and a reliable array of career choices, accountants are historically sought after particularly during tough economies or similar times of crises. Despite such demand, the numbers within the profession remain unbalanced. Yes, women have come to represent more than 50 percent of accounting graduates over the last 20 years, and over the past 10, the percentages of accounting undergraduates and graduates who are minorities have also increased. In fact, aTrends report shows that 42 percent of accounting graduates are African-American, Hispanic, American Indian, Asian or Pacific Islander, multiethnic, or other. However, total minority hiring in the world of American CPAs has remained inexcusably low, and that must change so as to better serve both the workforce and its customers. The U.S. Census of 2010 predicted that minorities will be the majority by 2042 — that’s about two decades away from now — and communities and clients are shifting in their demographic makeup to reflect that. Moreover, the combined purchasing power of African-Americans, Hispanics, and Asians was at $4 trillion in 2018 according to the Selig Center for Economic Growth, and demographers predict that the growth of minority populations will contribute between 44-70 percent to the total growth of U.S. purchasing power from 2000 to 2045. Still, this isn’t groundbreaking news, and diversity initiatives have been nudging accounting departments and firms for years to sit up and notice that the United States is more of a melting pot than ever before. But the need for CPA firms to bolster diversity and inclusion — and to provide not just a seat at the table, but also a voice — has never been as critical or urgent as it is today. Because despite America being increasingly diverse, minority workers are still likelier than whites to be unemployed or declined a promotion or senior position. In 2016, Pew Research published that 40 percent of both men and women were more likely to hire men over women; in 2018, almost 90 percent of corporate executives were white and roughly 73 percent were male, and just three Fortune 500 companies in the country were headed by an African-American as CEO. Not much has changed since then, so it seems that while the world around the accounting profession is rapidly changing, the world within it is not.)

Facebook Inc., Twitter Inc. and others have since implemented changes to limit the reach of state-run media. Yet RT continues to draw a large American audience, helped unwittingly by some of America’s most prominent conservative websites. The reason: Those news outlets agreed to join a distribution network that allows other members’ content to be displayed on their home pages. The company responsible for RT’s presence on RealClearPolitics is Mixi.Media. Since its launch in 2018, Mixi has assembled a network of right-leaning publishers, including National Review, The Daily Caller and Newsmax, as well as mainstream sites like RealClearPolitics.)

More than 2 million Illinois voters have applied for mailed ballots, and more than 107,000 people already have cast early votes statewide. While it likely won’t take months to record tallies, as suggested by Trump, it could be weeks before candidates in tight races know for sure whether they’ve won.)

https://www.nytimes.com/2020/10/07/us/politics/mike-pence-debate.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: They always had Mike Pence. Deeply religious, strait-laced and unfailingly loyal, the vice president was supposed to be an insurance policy for the social conservatives and evangelical Christians who found President Trump too crude, domineering and politically unreliable.​ . .“There are some qualities that Mike Pence has that I’ll continue to hope and pray that Donald Trump adopts — and the reverse is true as well,” said Tony Perkins, the president of the Family Research Council, a pro-Trump, social conservative group. “There are qualities that Donald Trump has that I hope and pray Mike Pence adopts. And that is that he picks up a little bit of the fight and courage that Donald Trump shows on a daily basis.” Mr. Pence now finds himself in a position that he likely never could have imagined four years ago. The steady, paint-inside-the-lines manner that social conservatives once found so reassuring in him might be devaluing his political stock today.)

In recognition of the impact of racism, Dr. Horton said, Evanston schools would give students from marginalized groups first priority for seats for in-person learning and all other students would be taught remotely. This is “about equity for Black and brown students, for special education students, for our LGBTQ students,” he said during a public meeting, held via Zoom.)

https://www.politico.com/newsletters/illinois-playbook/2020/10/06/bidens-illinois-trumps-staged-return-cannabis-dispensary-lawsuit-490533
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Illinois Democrats are licking their chops at a blowout Nov. 3. Some folks even wonder if Joe Biden will break a record in Illinois for votes cast for a president. Maybe. President Donald Trump is expected to make a strong showing downstate. According to the latest FiveThirtyEight data, Biden is up 17 points up in Illinois — 55.6 percent, to Trump’s 38.6 percent. If that holds, it still wouldn’t beat the margin in the 2008 presidential election, when Barack Obama won 61.9 percent of the Illinois vote against John McCain. In 2012, Obama took 57.6 percent of the vote to Mitt Romney’s 40.7. And neither Obama, nor Hillary Clinton, who also counts Illinois as home, could beat the record set by Warren G. Harding in 1920. He captured 67.8 percent of the vote in Illinois. Clinton, btw, won Illinois with 55.2 percent of the vote four years ago. “Biden should triumph here and they’ll probably call the election immediately after polls close in Illinois,” Christopher Mooney, professor of state politics at University of Illinois at Chicago, told Playbook. “That’s under normal circumstances. Given there are more mail-in ballots this year, that may not be the case.” The bigger race to watch, adds Mooney, is the graduated income tax ballot measure. Both sides say their polling shows they have an edge, which suggests it’s going to be close. And that means it may not be decided on election night. Voters in Illinois aren’t used to waiting for results, Mooney said. But given how gummed up Washington is over stimulus aid for states, Illinoisans have plenty at stake.)
