DAILY HERALD
— Hearing Trump’s vision – Kerry Lester  (DIERSEN: What do you say to those “Republican” activists, candidates, elected officials, party leaders, major donors, political consultants, fundraisers, etc. in Illinois, in DuPage County, in Milton Township, in Glen Ellyn, and in Wheaton a) who do not want me to know about their activities or their events, b) who do not want me to promote their activities or their events, c) who do not want me to attend their events, and/or d) who do not want me to report on their activities or their events?  The aforesaid blame me for their problems, for your problems, for my problems, and for everyone’s problems.)
http://www.dailyherald.com/article/20161229/news/161229008/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Major Republican donors in Illinois might have voted for President-elect Donald Trump, but their money hasn’t followed into his war chest as it has for past candidates, such as former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney. The tide could be beginning to change, thanks to a visit to Chicago on Friday by Vice President-Elect Mike Pence that’s being organized by Wheaton resident and GOP fundraiser Lisa Wagner, who developed deep ties over the years with Republican officials in Indiana, Pence’s home state. “Pence didn’t come to Illinois during the campaign,” says Wagner, who tells me she had a week to organize the 11 a.m. Chicago Club event, after the Republican National Committee called and told her Pence was available. “He’s been around Donald Trump in a way few others have, and this is an opportunity for people to hear about his vision and what it’s like.” The event’s host committee includes GOP Gov. Bruce Rauner, U.S. Rep. Peter Roskam of Wheaton and Illinois GOP Chair Tim Schneider of Bartlett. Tickets start at $2,700 per person and go as high as $33,400 per couple who sign up as co-chairs.)

— FRONT PAGE TOP OF FOLD WITH BIG COLOR PICTURES: Maine Twp., Naperville teachers among highest paid in suburbs – Russell Lissau  (DIERSEN: Who says that you are/were overpaid?  According to this article, “Maine Township High School District 207 topped the list with an average teacher salary of $110,929. That’s well above the $63,453 state average.”  In 1997, when I was 49 years old, in today’s dollars, GAO paid me $120,427 (GS-13 Step 10). My critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes have always demonized me, denigrated me, and condemned me as being overpaid. In my defense, I earned a) a job-related bachelor’s degree when I was 21 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 33.  I worked for IRS 1971-1980, the last 5 1/2 years of which at the GS-12 Step 1-5 levels, currently $77,899-$88,286.  I worked for GAO 1980-1997, the last 11 years of which at the GS-13 Step 1-10 levels, currently $92,632-$120,427.)

NORTHWEST HERALD
— Rauner prepares for tough 2018 governor race – Scott Reeder (DIERSEN: Those who want Rauner to lose will advise him to pander to Illinois voters who are anti-Trump, anti-Protestant, anti-conservative, anti-Republican, anti-American, anti-White, anti-male, anti-older people, anti-rich people, anti-gun owners, anti-German Americans, anti-draft avoiders, and/or anti-those whose ancestors have been in America longer than their ancestors.)
http://www.nwherald.com/2016/12/27/reeder-rauner-prepares-for-tough-2018-governor-race/a3xk2qh/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The interesting thing is that despite his loaded campaign coffers, Rauner is vulnerable. First of all, midterm elections almost always favor the party that doesn’t hold the White House. And given the animosity Democratic voters hold toward Donald Trump, particularly in blue states such as Illinois, Rauner likely will be swimming against the tide. It doesn’t mean he will drown, but it will be a tougher race than when he first captured the Executive Mansion. And I make that statement reluctantly. Of all of the governors who have served in my lifetime, he comes the closest to matching my own libertarian ideology. I want government out of my wallet and out of our private lives. But Illinoisans are weary of the constant war between Madigan and Rauner. Rauner views his election as a voter indictment of the longtime political boss, who he blames for Illinois’ fiscal ills. And he’s right for blaming Madigan. But Rauner has done a poor job of messaging about why he is engaged in this struggle. I’ve covered every governor since James R. Thompson, and this administration has done the worst job by far of sharing its vision for the state. Because of this, voters view this conflict as a personality clash between two egos rather than a conflict between divergent political philosophies.)

CONSERVATIVE HQ
— Transition to Trump: Trump receives warning from the affirmative action police – Jeffrey A. Rendall  (DIERSEN: How bad are your demographics?  My critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes stress that my demographics are terrible – conservative, Republican, American, White, male, old (68), non-poor, gun owner, 100% German-American, baptized, raised, and confirmed as a Missouri Synod Lutheran, ancestors have been in America since the 1840s, childless, no pets, American-nameplate car owner, union member for almost 12 years, federal employee for almost 30 years, retired federal employee for more the 19 years, overweight, etc.)
http://www.conservativehq.com/article/24795-transition-trump-trump-receives-warning-affirmative-action-police
(FROM THE ARTICLE: As the Donald Trump transition team has worked diligently since Election Day to find the most qualified people to serve in leadership roles in his upcoming administration, the forces of the left are keeping score — not only in terms of the backgrounds and histories of the nominees, but also on what they look like. Of course there have been a plethora of media reports about Trump choosing too many out-of-touch rich people, militaristic generals and greedy profit-centered business tycoons to run federal departments. But what’s really bothering liberals the most is the lack of so-called “diversity” in Trump’s proposed leadership circle. S.A. Miller writes in the Washington Times, “A top adviser to Donald Trump on diversity issues is offering no apologies for the preponderance of white men filling the Cabinet and key jobs in the new administration, insisting that the lack of minorities reflected the president-elect’s color-blind approach to hiring decisions. “Bruce Levell, who spearheaded a minority outreach effort for the Trump campaign and now serves as an adviser to the transition team, said that Mr. Trump isn’t looking to check off diversity boxes with his hiring decisions — and that’s OK with black and Hispanic Americans.” Well, it’s not okay to the most race-conscious black and Hispanic Americans. They want to see as many non-white faces surrounding Trump as possible. Miller also notes that of 18 Cabinet-level picks so far, Mr. Trump has selected 13 white men, two women of Asian descent and one white woman. The only black nominee so far is retired neurosurgeon and former presidential candidate Ben Carson, tapped to run the Department of Housing and Urban Development. And that’s not all — of seven senior counselors named to his point, only Kellyanne Conway has two X chromosomes. Almost sounds like a poker game, doesn’t it? There’s little doubt that “affirmative action” will be a hot topic for the left in assaulting the Trump administration in the coming years. Whereas our society judges organizations such as the NFL for the quantity of minority coaches it employs, the left will certainly be counting the number of minorities in positions close to Trump – and they’re not going to like what they see. These same people may not feel as much angst towards the dearth of representation of women, however, because to liberals, Republican and conservative women don’t count towards their quotas. To them, if a woman doesn’t have some sort of bra-burning advocacy for abortion on demand in her background, she doesn’t count towards membership in the female gender. And the same definitely goes for homosexuals as well, or as is more commonly accepted these days, folks in the “LGBTQ community.” (What exactly does the “Q” – queer – demographic constitute that isn’t covered by the other letters?) It’s common knowledge that close Trump advisor Peter Thiel is homosexual, but he hasn’t yet been offered an official position in the administration, so he won’t count towards an affirmative action head count either. In fact, Thiel is enduring the usual level of leftist hatred for his willingness to work with Trump. As a candidate to lead the Food and Drug Administration, Thiel is being attacked from all sides. Robert Goldberg writes at The Hill, “Trump has promised to find ways to accelerate the pace of medical innovation. And so groups such as Public Citizen and the Center for American Progress that make a living and maintain a media presence bashing the pharmaceutical industry are howling that Thiel wants to water down the scientific and conflict of interests standards regulating the FDA and NIH, in order to allow Big Pharma to get rich by exposing consumers to dangerous, ineffective treatments.” While it’s true that in this case the liberals aren’t specifically targeting Thiel’s sexual orientation, the fact that “one of them” is actually advocating for loosening government controls must anger them to the core. The same goes for their opposition to Ben Carson taking over the direction of HUD. If a black man favors more private enterprise in housing, that’s a bad thing. Meanwhile, the media and liberals fail to note that Trump has placed several Jewish individuals in prominent roles. Commerce and Treasury nominees Wilbur Ross and Steve Mnuchin are both Jewish, right? Muslims must feel slighted. I’m sure that’s the way the left looks at it. It all doesn’t really matter, however. When push comes to shove, Trump could assemble a cabinet chock full of so-called ethnic minorities, women and folks with alternative lifestyles and he would still be labeled as racially and culturally biased by the left because of his colorblind policies. They’re not interested in someone’s background half as much as what he or she believes government’s role should be in enforcing the leftist accepted cultural norms. Need proof? George W. Bush elevated African-Americans to positions never held before by people of color and was there any credit given? Wasn’t Colin Powell and Condoleezza Rice black enough? Does Elaine Chao lose her Asian identity because she’s a Republican and is married to Mitch McConnell? And we don’t even need to mention Justice Clarence Thomas here, a man who’s endured decades of race hatred and scorn because he dares to be conservative and black at the same time. So don’t give too much credence to the left’s ethnic scorecard where Trump’s team is concerned. There’s just no way to satisfy them, short of packing his cabinet with the Eric Holders and Loretta Lynches of the world.)
