— IL GOP voters vow to continue fight for President Trump – Will Jones (DIERSEN: What have the following said about Biden’s claiming victory: present and past leaders of a) the Illinois Republican Party, b) your Republican county party organization, and c) your Republican township/ward party organization? According to NBC News, Hillary Clinton said that Biden should not concede the election ‘under any circumstances.’ SEE: https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/2020-election/hillary-clinton-says-biden-should-not-concede-2020-election-under-n1238156 )

(FROM THE ARTICLE: Some local Republicans who cast their ballots for President Trump are also vowing to continue the fight to keep him in the White House, adding that this election isn’t over. “We are in the second inning of this ball game, second. And the fact that people are rushing to come to a conclusion and to name a winner is absolutely ridiculous,” said Laura Pollastrini, 2020 Trump Delegate. They said ballots have yet to be counted and the president should not concede. “We know that he is a fighter. That is one of the reasons why we got elected four years ago,” said Will County GOP Chairman George Pearson. . .Going forward the Republicans voters said that the Republican Party should continue to follow President Trump’s blueprint on how to fight back.)

CHICAGO SUN-TIMES
— Suburban school board member spoke up about racial injustice, then board tried to silence her “I’m not fitting into their box, I guess, because their box leaves out so many people,” said Jill Manrique, school board vice president at Niles Township District 219. – Nader Issa (DIERSEN: Ever-increasingly, under the Democrats and under the RINOs, Republicans are silenced. Ever-increasingly, under the moderates and under the liberals, conservatives are silenced.)
https://chicago.suntimes.com/education/2020/11/8/21554574/niles-schools-racism-school-board-social-injustice
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Jill Manrique feels she made her views on social injustice clear leading up to her election to the Niles Township school board in spring 2019. When another board hopeful, answering a question about racial equity at a candidate forum, said the district needed to be careful about “reverse racism,” Manrique chimed in, saying that concept isn’t real and explained why it’s important to fight for families of color. And since she was elected to the District 219 board that runs Niles West and Niles North high schools in north suburban Skokie, Manrique believes she has lived up to voters’ expectations that she would work toward social justice. A year and a half later, Manrique’s continued expression of those beliefs has been appreciated by some parents but caused uproar among others — so much so that her fellow board members adopted a resolution in a 5-2 vote last month that essentially aimed to silence her. Manrique, the board vice president, had “disparaged community members with viewpoints that are contrary to her own” and had “taken positions on controversial political and social issues” that don’t represent the board, the resolution read. The board accused Manrique of using social media to “disrespectfully respond to community members who have complained about her Twitter comments, at times mocking said community members.” The board “implores” Manrique to stop adversely impacting the district, it said. Board President David Ko said in a statement the resolution was meant to make clear that Manrique does not speak on behalf of the board. He did not answer several questions.)

If I had been a pot user, I never would have been able to earn a) a job-related bachelor’s degree when I was 21 in 1970 and job-related master’s degrees when I was 27, 31, and 48, b) job-related professional certifications when I was 30, 32, 41, 45, 47, and 48, and c) a job-related professional license when I was 32.

TRUMP/PENCE CAMPAIGN
— The media does NOT decide who is President
https://secure.winred.com/tmagac/election-defense-fund-cond
(FROM THE ANNOUNCEMENT: This Election is far from over. We all know why Joe Biden is rushing to falsely pose as the winner, and why his media allies are trying so hard to help him: THEY DON’T WANT THE TRUTH TO BE EXPOSED. Joe Biden has NOT been certified as the winner of any states, let alone any highly contested states headed for mandatory recounts, or any states where our campaign has valid and legitimate legal challenges that could determine the ultimate victor. The American People are entitled to an honest Election; that means counting all legal ballots, and not counting any illegal ballots. This is the only way to ensure the public has full confidence in our Election. The Biden campaign wants ballots counted even if they are fraudulent, manufactured, or cast by ineligible or deceased voters. Only a party engaged in wrongdoing would unlawfully keep observers out of the count room – and then fight in court to block their access.)

https://www.dailyherald.com/business/20201108/liz-weston-the-upsides-to-thinking-about-when-you-will-die
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Social Security’s life expectancy calculator predicts I’ll live to about 86. An insurance company’s version says I should expect to die at 98. A longevity calculator created by actuaries demurs, putting the odds at only 32% that I’ll make it to 95. Eventually, I’ll find out which life expectancy calculator was most accurate. In the meantime, the different results help illustrate one of the most important and difficult calculations in retirement planning: figuring out when it will end. People who underestimate their life expectancy could save too little for retirement and run short of cash. People who overestimate how long they’ll live might stay in the workforce longer than they want to or spend less in retirement than they could.)

AMERICAN THINKER
— Former journalist receives AP survey, laughs out loud at huge bias in questions – Laura Peterson-Lytle
https://www.americanthinker.com/blog/2020/10/former_journalist_receives_ap_survey_laughs_out_loud_at_huge_bias_in_questions.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The postcard even goes on to describe the AP as an “independent, not-for-profit news organization committed to the highest standard of objective, accurate journalism for the past 170 years.” Yes, I will admit, I laughed. Looking back, it now serves as a bright, neon, flashing sign of how dishonest and standardless the poll would turn out to be. . .The poll goes on to ask many questions that are intentionally, manipulatively inaccurate, and others that are structured to allow the AP to interpret to suit its predetermined goal. For example, in attempting to gauge the respondent’s primary issues of importance, one question asked if the “economic downturn” would factor into his selection process. The possible answers to that question range from “very likely” to “not at all.” The obvious question is what economic downturn, but the poll does not allow one to ask. Essentially, the poll attempts to subconsciously plant the idea that some undisputed “economic downturn” is taking place. Was the question referencing the economic downturn in Democrat-run, riot- and looting-ridden cities that have shut down and forbidden life outside liberal rabble-rousing? If so, it should clearly state such. That is not what the poll’s intention is, though. It is nothing more than a thinly veiled attempt to imply that the economy is not improving under President Donald Trump — something categorically false, deceptive, and intentional on the part of the AP. If respondents assert they are voting for President Trump and that such an “economic downturn” is not a factor in their decision, the AP can manipulate those results to imply that Trump-supporters simply “don’t care” about a bad economy. Never mind the fact that no such economic downturn is occurring outside Democrat-run cities.)

In 1997, when I was 49 years old, to force me to take their early retirement “offer,” my Democrat GAO superiors made it clear that they would demote me constructively, if not literally. Reasons why I succumbed and took their early retirement “offer” include a) it would be 6 long years before I would be eligible for regular retirement, b) GAO was not unionized, c) none of my superiors, supervisors, coworkers, or subordinates would have supported me, d) fighting it would have harmed my mental and physical health, e) I did not have enough support of Henry Hyde’s staff, and f) I could suffer the 59% loss of income because of my wife’s income, we had no dependents, we had no debts, we owned a home and cars, and we had retirement savings. However, my 59% loss of income for the rest of my life dramatically cut our standard of living. Further, my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes have used my being forced to take early retirement to viciously demonize me, to viciously denigrate me, and to viciously denigrate me as being a White supremacist, Nazi, KKK member, hater, racist, sexist, bigot, and even worse things. Needless-to say, I should sue my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes.)

— Blue wave drenches DuPage County, aiding Democratic transformation of one-time Republican stronghold. But will it last? – JOHN KEILMAN (DIERSEN: The Chicago Tribune has played a major role in the Democrat invasion of DuPage County. I should write a book about the Democrat invasion of DuPage County. I would focus on hypocritical hate-filled Republican-hating Republican-haters who have moved into DuPage County to hypocritically take advantage of the prosperity and safety that Republicans created there. I would focus on RINO leaders of Republican organizations in DuPage County who have dumped conservatives, that is, who have dumped Republicans, and pandered to moderates and to liberals, that is, who have pandered to Democrats. I have lived in DuPage County, Milton Township, and Wheaton since 1978 and in my precinct since 1984. I have been a Republican Precinct Committeeman since 1999. I served as the chairman of the DuPage County based TAPROOT Republicans of Illinois 2005-2012. I served as the Milton Township Republican Organization webmaster 2008-2010 and 2000-2004.

(FROM THE ARTICLE: The electoral blue wave predicted by political scientists might have fizzled in much of the U.S., but on Tuesday it drenched a corner of the Chicago area that, not long ago, was practically untouched by Democrats. DuPage County, once known as one of the most solidly Republican areas in the country, appears to have given Democrats control of the County Board for the first time since the 1930s. Two more Democrats are leading their races for countywide office, and could be joined by another when the final votes are tallied. DuPage voters also backed Democrats in every federal race from president to U.S. representative, as well as every state senator and nine of 13 state representatives. It’s a stunning turn of fortune two decades in the making, observers say, the result of shifting demographics, shrewd campaigning and the divisive reign of President Donald Trump. “He doesn’t do well with suburban women and I think that hurts us,” said Jim Zay, a County Board member and chairman of DuPage County Republicans. “It’s time to rebrand and regroup and come back in two years.” Many of the county’s races ended on a paper-thin margin — nine were within a percentage point or two as of Friday afternoon — so it could be contested territory for years to come. But College of DuPage political science professor Melissa Mouritsen, who has written about the county’s transformation, said it’s following a path already traveled by other American suburbs. “DuPage is purple; it’s not fully Democratic yet,” she said. “But it’s at that tipping point.” A history in red  For more than a century DuPage County was as Republican as could be, home to GOP stalwarts such as U.S. Rep. Henry Hyde, who led the impeachment of President Bill Clinton, Pate Philip, president of the Illinois Senate for a decade, and two-time Illinois Attorney General Jim Ryan. As recently as 2000, the election of a single Democrat to the County Board was cause for a wonder-struck story in the Tribune. But Mouritsen said the changes that would result in the county’s political realignment were already underway. One was demographic: The county went from 79% white in 2000 to 66% now, and median household income, expressed in 2018 dollars, dropped from $99,000 to $88,000. As the population diversified by race, income and political ideology — many newcomers hailed from the Democratic power center of Cook County, Mouritsen said — a growing number of people proved amenable to the Democrats. The redrawing of political districts after the 2010 census, a process controlled by House Speaker Michael Madigan, also helped to elevate Democrats to national and state offices, she said. County offices, however, remained thoroughly red. Liz Chaplin, who was first elected to the DuPage board with two other Democrats in 2012, was by 2016 the last of her party on the 18-member panel. “Sometimes I just felt like I was hitting my head against the wall,” she said. “It’s hard when you’re the only one.” Then came Donald Trump. He was the favorite among the county’s Republican primary voters in 2016, but the DuPage electorate as a whole rejected him, giving him only 39% of the vote in the general election, the lowest GOP share in decades. Two years into Trump’s tumultuous administration, the county’s moderate Republicans were open to hearing a new message, said Cynthia Borbas, chair of the DuPage Democrats. “Previously they were like, ‘Oh, Democrats? We don’t even want to talk to you,’” she said. “But because of Trump, more people are paying attention and they’re willing to have more conversations with us. And we’re connecting on the values and issues we care about.” Trickle to a flood In the 2018 election, DuPage voters elected Jean Kaczmarek as county clerk, making her the first Democrat to hold countywide office in 84 years. They also added six Democrats to the County Board. Jamie Wood, who moved to Lisle from Detroit two years ago, said he votes Democratic all the way down the ballot, even for candidates whose names and policy stances are unfamiliar. “My mindset right now is to just have as much of a blue wave as I possibly can just because of how much I’m fed up with the status quo,” he said. Wood, 33, who grew up in Elgin, is familiar with DuPage’s political history, but said young families like his are replacing older residents who were reliably Republican. These new families, he said, consider schools their top priority and aren’t as focused on traditional GOP concerns such as public safety. State’s Attorney Robert Berlin, who ran unopposed, emphasized law and order in a letter he sent in his role as Republican committeeman to Democratic households in his precinct. He wrote that county GOP officials from coroner to auditor “stand for one thing: the importance of public safety and adherence to the rule of law.” Two of those candidates, aspiring recorder Babette Holder Youngberg and incumbent Circuit Court Clerk Chris Kachiroubas, were trailing their Democratic opponents Friday afternoon with thousands of votes left to be counted. Auditor Bob Grogan led his Democratic rival by just 676 votes. But Berlin noted that a referendum asking whether the county should keep law enforcement as its top funding priority was approved by a 3-to-1 margin, suggesting the message was still potent. He said he didn’t know why Republicans stumbled in DuPage, but added that it happened in many other suburbs across the country. “We’re not unique in that regard,” he said. Purple future? Amy Chavez, a Naperville Democrat who won election to the County Board, said her constituents are chiefly concerned about COVID-19 — “When they think safe, they want to be safe from the virus” — and that the new Democratic majority will ensure the health department has what it needs to conduct testing and contact tracing. Paula Deacon Garcia, of Lisle, who was leading her race for a board seat Friday, said her issues are climate change, sustainability and public health, along with lowering the temperature at public meetings. “Since I’ve been attending, they’ve become quite partisan,” she said. “I’m looking for a bipartisan approach.” Republican board Chairman Dan Cronin could not be reached for comment. Zay was hopeful a return to form might not be far away for DuPage Republicans. The GOP needs to do a better job claiming credit for making DuPage an appealing place to live, he said, and must bring more women and young people into the fold. He noted that every seat on the County Board will be up for election in two years. Trump won’t be on that ballot, but another polarizing figure likely will: Democratic Gov. J.B. Pritzker, whose shutdown orders during the pandemic have angered plenty of suburbanites. Borbas, meanwhile, said the county’s Democrats aren’t taking anything for granted. They fought Republicans for every vote in the 2020 election and are ready to do it again, she said. “I don’t think it’s a fluke, I don’t think it’s a one-off, I don’t think DuPage is blue,” she said. “But I think what it means is that we’re in the game now and we’re here to stay.”)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: $1 million is no longer enough to retire on You have to get rich these days just to finance a comfortable retirement. That’s the conclusion financial advisors are increasingly coming around to, as they gauge the direction of the economy in a strange new world of glacial growth and super-low interest rates. “Twenty years ago, someone with a million bucks would have said, ‘that’s great, I can draw down $100,000 a year, I’ll be just fine,’” Jim McCaughan, CEO of Principal Global Investors, tells me in the video above. “But now, with very low rates, the problem of funding a retirement is much more difficult.” Retirees don’t need to be told that low rates have cut sharply into the returns on fixed-income investments. But they may need to rethink how to prepare for what might happen in the future. Many investors are waiting for interest rates to go back up, once the Federal Reserve starts hiking short-term rates later this year or early next year. Meanwhile, the Fed is gradually winding down its vast “quantitative easing” program, which deliberately forced down long-term rates. So as that pressure eases, rates ought to go back up. Right? Maybe not. McCaughan argues that we’ll be in a low-rate environment for much longer than many people expect, for a couple of basic reasons. First, an aging population means the demand for low-risk bonds will rise, pushing up prices but pulling down yields. Second, there’s been a growing gap between global demand and global production capacity, which will keep a lid on prices of most things for the foreseeable future. Low inflation usually coincides with low-interest rates. There’s nothing magical (or scientific) about $1 million as a goal for retirement savings. As a round benchmark, however, it’s been in the ballpark for a couple hoping to retire comfortably. A $1 million principal will generate $60,000 per year in income if the portfolio’s return is 6%, and $40,000 per year at 4%. The amount you need to live on, of course, depends on many factors, including the cost of living where you reside, healthcare expenses, how much you travel and how long you live. But if rates remain in the low range they’re in now—with 10-year Treasury rates well below 3%, say—it will change the math of retirement planning. During most of the baby boomers’ working lives, it was reasonable to expect annual returns of 6% to 10% on a retirement portfolio, without taking much risk. Add Social Security and other pension payments, and a $1 million nest egg was more than adequate for most people.)

CBS NEWS
— The high cost of systemic racism in the U.S. (DIERSEN: I should write a book about the many millions of dollars that my Democrat superiors in the federal government wasted on me so that they could give preference to my coworkers and to my subordinates who were Democrat, minority, female, younger, and/or veteran. They wasted what I learned a) working for GAO 1980-1997, b) working for IRS 1971-1980, c) earning a master’s degree in financial markets and trading from IIT in 1997, d) passing the Certified Internal Auditor examination on my first attempt in 1981, e) earning a master’s degree in accounting from DePaul in 1980, f) passing the CPA examination on my first attempt in 1979, g) earning an MBA from Loyola in 1976, and h) earning a bachelor’s degree in management from NIU in 1970. My Democrat GAO superiors forced me to retire in 1997 when I was 49 years old, gave me unfair performance expectations and appraisals, always ranked me in the bottom half of my coworkers for pay-for-performance purposes, did not promote me beyond GS-13, got rid of my mentor in 1987, 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 a $20,157 (21%) pay cut in today’s dollars to transfer from IRS to GAO in 1980. My Democrat IRS superiors did not promote me beyond GS-12, disallowed my education deductions in 1978, got rid of my mentor in 1975, and disallowed my partial day per diem claims in 1974. In 1971, I would have become an Oldsmobile employee if Oldsmobile had not withdrawn its job offer because of EEOC. My Democrat Post Office superiors forced me resign in 1969 and disallowed my sick leave requests in 1969 and 1968.)

— Illinois is nearing its contact tracing hiring goal. Is it too late? – HAL DARDICK (DIERSEN: From what I see, those who are the following are negatively stereotyped as being potentially infectious COVID-19 spreaders: older, overweight, and/or have health problems, including diabetes. Therefore, because of that, one would anticipate that a) employers will get rid of their employees who are the aforesaid and b) organizations will get rid of their members who are the aforesaid.)
https://www.chicagotribune.com/coronavirus/ct-coronavirus-illinois-contact-tracing-slow-start-20201102-rrbutujsbfhytb454vvu2yddhu-story.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: As Illinois finally nears its goal of employing 3,800 people to track down and warn the contacts of people infected with COVID-19, experts say that number may no longer be sufficient to help control the virus. That’s because contact tracing — which aims to reduce disease spread by identifying and isolating people who could be infectious — works best when infection rates are relatively low. The state is seeing record numbers of daily confirmed cases.)

— How seniors and their money would fare under a Trump or Biden presidency – Lorie Konish (DIERSEN: Interest rates are far lower than inflation. Democrats and RINOs use age discrimination to get rid of Republicans, and especially to get rid of Republicans who are Trump supporters, conservative, patriotic, White, male, older, heterosexual, married, overweight and/or have other health problems, non-poor, gun owners, Protestant, German American, and/or those whose ancestors have been in America for a long time.)
https://www.cnbc.com/2020/11/01/trump-vs-biden-what-the-election-could-mean-for-seniors-wallets.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Biden’s platform calls for strengthening age discrimination laws, Johnson noted, which could help seniors who want to continue working. A 2009 Supreme Court decision made it so that workers had to prove age was the only factor that led to a job loss, a higher bar to prove age discrimination in the workplace. Democrats in Congress have been trying to address that concern for the past decade, and Biden has said he supports those efforts, Johnson noted.)

My Democrat GAO superiors did everything that they could to turn those who I supervised against me. They stressed to those who I supervised that I was healthy, White, male, draft avoider, Protestant (baptized, raised, and confirmed as a Missouri Synod Lutheran), 100% German American, non-poor, married, Republican, conservative, Wheaton resident, my ancestors have been in America since 1844, I had three job-related master’s degrees, I had six job-related professional certifications, and I had a job-related professional license.)

— Evanston gathering turns violent overnight, police say – Jesse Kirsch (DIERSEN: How prepared are the police in your municipality for Democrat vandalism, Democrat looting, Democrat rioting, and Democrat arson?)
https://abc7chicago.com/evanston-gathering-turns-violent-overnight/7540524/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: A gathering that included some Northwestern University students turned violent in Evanston overnight Sunday. Some Whole Foods windows were boarded up Sunday morning after a gathering in downtown Evanston became violent, according to police. Police said an unruly crowd began throwing bricks and fireworks at officers. There were windows broken and other property damage in the city’s downtown shortly before midnight Saturday. Several officers were treated for minor injuries. Other police departments from neighboring communities were called in to help restore order. It is unclear what the students were protesting last night. Recently, a student group has been demanding that the Northwestern University cut ties with campus police. University President Morton Schapiro wrote a letter to the community after an earlier incident acknowledging the concerns of injustice, but he also made it clear the school has no intention of dissolving its police department. In a letter last week, Schapiro highlighted a new safety oversight board that will be made up of faculty, staff and students.)

In 1980, when I was 31 years old, I suffered a $20,157/year (21%) pay cut in today’s dollars to transfer from IRS to GAO. My critics opponents shouted that was a) proof that IRS had overpaid me, b) proof that I had changed careers, and c) proof that the experience that I had gained by working for IRS almost 9 years, the last 5 1/2 years of which at the GS-12 Step 1-5 levels, currently $85,084-$96,431/year, was worthless. In fact, much of what I did for IRS as a Revenue Officer was similar to what I would do for GAO as an Analyst, including financial investigation; interviewing; gathering, summarizing, and analyzing data; writing reports; and making recommendations. My Democrat IRS superiors had made very clear that they would never promote me beyond GS-12. They had disallowed my education deductions in 1978, gotten rid of my mentor in 1975, and disallowed my partial day per diem claims in 1974. They had dismissed and belittled the fact that I had passed the CPA examination on my first attempt in 1979 and that I had earned an MBA from Loyola in 1976.)

https://www.forbes.com/sites/andrewsolender/2020/10/28/trump-calls-republican-critics-lowest-form-of-human-life-says-hes-running-against-them/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: President Trump offered perhaps his most scathing attacks on members of his own party who have criticized him publicly – referred to as ‘RINOs’, short for Republicans in Name Only – amid a deepening divide between the president and Republican lawmakers as his reelection prospects have become increasingly grim. At a rally in Arizona on Wednesday, Trump claimed he is not only running against former Vice President Joe Biden and the Democratic party, but the “left wing mob,” the “big-tech giants” and “the RINOs.” Just in the last few months, Trump has used the term ‘RINO’ to describe Sens. Pat Toomey (R-Pa.), Mitt Romney (R-Utah) and Ben Sasse (R-Neb.), as well as Massachusetts Gov. Charlie Baker, former House Speaker Paul Ryan, former Michigan Gov. Rick Snyder and former Rep. Tom Ridge. Trump has also used the term to refer to former George W. Bush adviser Karl Rove, the members of The Lincoln Project, a group of anti-Trump Republicans, Republican governors who criticized his handling of coronavirus and any Republican voters who do not approve of his job performance. Trump has increasingly incorporated RINOs into his stump speech in recent months as part of his “drain the swamp” narrative, calling them “sickos” and declaring they are “worse than the Democrats.” He took his denunciations one step further on Wednesday, stating he prefers leftists to RINOs, who he called the “lowest form of human life,” and even speculating that audio difficulties at his rally were caused by one: “It’s probably a RINO operating the thing.” Trump’s increased focus on RINOs comes as sitting Republican officials have shown an increasing willingness to break with him publicly.)

https://www.nbcchicago.com/news/local/dupage-county-election-judge-fired-after-allegedly-stealing-political-signs/2361977/
(FROM THE DUPAGE COUNTY REPUBLICAN CENTRAL COMMITTEE: Democrat Election Judge Beverly Johnston was arrested yesterday for stealing campaign signs erected by District 2 County Board Member Republican nominee Sean Noonan. Villa Park police arrested Johnston, who was found to be in possession of campaign signs of other Republican candidates at the time, as she was in the process of removing Noonan’s 16 square foot sign that was securely anchored in front of Midland Plumbing & Sewer 187 E. North Avenue in the Village of Villa Park. “As a police officer and current county board member who makes a point of campaigning fairly and honestly, this type of illegal behavior is shocking coming from a Judge, even if she is only a limited authority election Judge. She still takes an oath to uphold the law,” said Noonan. DuPage County Republican Chairman Jim Zay has asked candidates and volunteers to document all cases of sign theft and vandalism since September 1st. “We have a large number of Cook County Democrat political operatives and Madigan’s Chicago precinct swarming all over DuPage County practicing machine politics and we expect this from them because that’s how they were taught to campaign — illegally,” said Zay. “I am as amazed as anyone that an election Judge duly appointed by the DuPage County Clerk would resort to this kind of action while she is supposed to be an honest, fair and impartial part of the election system.” The Police Report number assigned by the Villa Park Police Department in the Johnston case is VPPC2002506.)

— ‘I don’t trust them’: Young Fall River voters look beyond traditional media to inform their voting decisions – Charles Winokoor (DIERSEN: My critics/opponents a) do not want anyone to read GOPUSA ILLINOIS emails, b) want everyone to read only what they put out or bless, and c) focus on destroying those like me who they cannot manipulate or dominate. I should write a book about my critics/opponents. Better yet, I should sue them.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: They rarely read or listen to actual news reports, but most of them are ready to cast their votes on Nov. 3. Six young adults, who live or work in the Fall River area, were asked if they could identify any news or media outlet that might have informed and influenced them, as to whether they’ll vote for President Donald Trump or Joe Biden on Election Day. Five of the six said they rely nearly exclusively on social media sites for political insight, while one says she favors listening to the British Broadcasting Corporation for the latest news. None of them said they pay much attention to American mainstream media. “I don’t trust them. There’s a lot of slant in the media,” said Robert Perry, who works for Epicurean Feast Cafes and manages the cafeteria at Bristol Community College’s Elsbree Street campus. Perry, 28, says he began to adopt a cynical view of national news media outlets even before Trump defeated Hillary Clinton in 2016.)

TORONTO STOREYS
— Nearly a Quarter of Millennials Expect $100K from Family to Be Able to Purchase a Home – Kayla Gladysz (DIERSEN: I bought a new town home in University Park in 1972 when I was 24 years old. The down payment came from what I had earned and saved a) working for IRS in Harvey for the prior 9 months and in Chicago for 6 months before that and b) working for the Firestone Store in Chicago Heights for the prior 18 months part-time and for 7 months before that full-time. That money also enabled me to a) buy a new Corvette in 1971 and b) pay tuition for graduate business courses at Loyola.)
https://torontostoreys.com/first-time-homebuyers-survey-bmo-millennials-family-support-mortgages/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: According to a new survey from BMO Bank of Montreal conducted by Pollara Strategic Insights, 56% of participants said they would seek help from family as they geared up to purchase their first home. Prospective buyers in Ontario were second-most likely to look for financial assistance, as 58% of respondents declared they would do so. British Columbia’s home-hunters took the top spot; there, 59% said they’d seek aid. What’s more, Millennials (an arguably debatable age range, but defined by Pew Research Center as those born between 1981 and 1996) were more likely to search for financial assistance than those defined as Gen X (individuals born between ’65 and ’80). While who is seeking support in making the big (literally and figurative) move is interesting, what might be even more intriguing is just how much these could-be-buyers are looking to obtain from external sources. Among those looking for financial aid, nearly 25% are seeking between $10,000 and $50,000; on average, first-time buyers are questing after $44,500 in assistance. But Millennials aren’t stopping there. According to the survey, 23%, or nearly a quarter of buyers in this age range, are expecting $100,000 or more in financial support as they prepare to purchase a home.)
