I should write a book about those in Wheaton and in Glen Ellyn who demonize, who denigrate, and who condemn Crete and my upbringing there. They paint Crete back then as being full of very bad people a) who were German-American, Lutheran, conservative, Republican, and draft avoiders and b) who were White supremacists, Nazis, KKK members, haters, racists, sexists, bigots, and even worse things.)

CRAIN’S CHICAGO BUSINESS
— You got your chance, J.B. Don’t blow it. No state lawmakers—Democrat or Republican—should get behind a progressive income tax without providing significant relief to property tax payers, who currently carry the heaviest such burden in the nation. – Editorial (DIERSEN: From what I see, Democrats believe that if you own real estate, a) you are rich and b) you can and you should pay more taxes. To hint/imply/argue/shout that I can and should pay more taxes, my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes have stressed that I have owned real estate since 1972 when I was 24 years old.)

— Note to Illinois Democrats: Don’t get full of yourselves Hubris definitely was front and center in the general election. Now it’s the real risk facing Gov.-elect J.B.

POLITICO ILLINOIS
— GOP’s UIHLEIN problem – SHIA KAPOS and ADRIENNE HURST (DIERSEN: Those who want to destroy the Illinois Republican Party (IRP) want the IRP a) to dump the traditional family, right to life, immigration, and Second Amendment planks in the IRP platform and b) to dump those voters, to dump those organizations, to dump those companies, and to dump those governments that support the aforesaid planks and/or that support Trump. Will the IRP dump Uihlein and his money and seek/take money from those who promote LGBTQ activity, abortion, mass/illegal immigration, abolition of the Second Amendment, booze, gambling, pot, and other vices, patronage, political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, age discrimination, and even worse things?)
https://www.politico.com/newsletters/illinois-playbook/2018/11/12/quigley-sets-sights-on-sessions-gops-uihlein-problem-emanuels-remedy-for-congress-345324
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Illinois Democrats’ takeover of every level of government has the Illinois Republican Party is taking stock on how to shift gears. The way Pat Brady sees it, the Illinois GOP needs an “autopsy” similar to what the national GOP underwent in 2012 when Mitt Romney lost to President Barack Obama. “We need to get back to the party of Reagan, a party that appeals to a broad spectrum,” he told POLITICO. That would mean having to pull back from the politics of Dick Uihlein, the business magnate who supported conservatives across the country during this past election season, including Alabama Republican U.S. Senate candidate Roy Moore—who was accused of sexually assaulting teens when he was in his 30s. Uihlein lives in Wisconsin but has been an influence on GOP politics in Illinois, funneling $8.5 million to the Liberty Principles PAC and to conservative gubernatorial candidate Jeanne Ives (who lost to Bruce Rauner in the primary). Brady and others say the Illinois GOP would do better to stop focusing on social issues like gay marriage, especially as more young people and women get involved in the voting process. GOP state Rep. Dave McSweeney also points to the missteps of Republican Gov. Bruce Rauner. “ We have a massive tax hike, out of control spending, a big unpaid backlog of bills—and we have fewer Republican General Assembly members,” he told POLITICO. “We’re worse off than when he came in.” McSweeney says Republicans need to follow Democrats’ political tactics: Run a grassroots GOTV campaign. “This wasn’t a policy victory,” he said, referring to J.B. Pritzker’s rout over Rauner. “Pritzker ran on a vague platform. What he and Democrats did was get out the vote.”)

— School discipline: Which Will County districts reported suspending the most girls?
https://willcountygazette.com/stories/511556776-school-discipline-which-will-county-districts-reported-suspending-the-most-girls
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Crete Monee Community Unit School District 201u, Joliet Township High School District 204 and Lockport Township High School District 205 reported the highest rate of girls suspended for any reason during the 2016-17 school year in Will County, according to the latest report from the Illinois State Board of Education. In this analysis, the incident rate is calculated by dividing the number of incidents by district enrollment.)

In 1974, while I was an IRS employee, the Democrats who ran IRS investigated my partial day per diem claims. In 1968 and 1969, while I was a Post Office employee, the Democrats who ran the Post Office investigated my sick leave claims. The aforesaid investigations were adverse actions taken to end my federal career and to get rid of me. None of the aforesaid investigations would have been launched if I had been a Democrat, a minority, a female, or a veteran.)

— How Trump’s tax cuts hurt the GOP in America’s wealthy suburbs – BRIAN CHEUNG
https://www.aol.com/article/finance/2018/11/12/how-trumps-tax-cuts-hurt-the-gop-in-americas-wealthy-suburbs/23587443/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Proponents of the tax bill say the SALT cap, which tends to benefit the wealthier, will still be offset by a now-doubled standard deduction. Republican Peter Roskam, one of the key members of the tax-writing House Ways and Means Committee, heavily advertised how a larger standard deduction would simplify the tax filing to the size of a postcard. Roskam ended up losing his seat in Illinois’s 6th congressional district, where Democratic challenger Sean Casten took to Medium.com to attack Roskam and the Trump tax cuts. “Peter Roskam likes to hype his position on the Ways and Means committee to convince you he knows more about tax policy and you do,” Casten wrote. “It’s all a lie.” With Roskam gone, the Republican side of the tax-writing House Ways and Means Committee looks thin on members who helped drive the tax reform bill. Three of the six subcommittee members did not run for reelection.)

REPUBLICAN AMERICAN
— Legal Business: Parameters of age discrimination – Eric Brown (DIERSEN: Do you oppose age discrimination? My critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes promote age discrimination. They applaud the federal government’s “out-or-out” policy for its employees who are Republican, White, male, and/or non-veteran. They vicious demonize, vicious denigrate, and viciously condemn as being lazy, stupid, and even worse things federal employees like me who are Republican, White, male, and/or non-veteran who did 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.)
http://www.rep-am.com/news/news-business/2018/11/11/legal-business-parameters-of-age-discrimination/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: My friends and I turned 50 this year. There is a group of about 11 of us from college who get together once a year to relive our glory days and catch up on each other’s lives. Over the last couple of years, five out of the 11 have lost jobs. Losing a job when you’re in your late 40s to early 50s can be financially devastating. Those are the prime earning years and the time when a person can really start putting away for retirement and catch up if the nest egg wasn’t built large enough in their 20s and 30s. A layoff or termination after 25 years of building a career can really set a person back. The likelihood that such a person will find work at the same pay level becomes more remote. At the same time, greater financial obligations like educating kids, preparing for retirement, or caring for parents come to the forefront.)

November 11 Morning Edition

CHICAGO TRIBUNE
— FRONT PAGE TOP OF FOLD IN NAPERVILLE SUN: DIERSEN HEADLINE: Anti-Trumps crow about their success in a) promoting hatred against Trump in Naperville and b) getting voters in Naperville to punish Trump by voting for Democrats.
https://www.chicagotribune.com/suburbs/naperville-sun/news/ct-nvs-midterm-results-by-precinct-st-1111-story.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Despite a strong showing in Naperville in 2014 and 2016, unofficial DuPage numbers show Roskam took only half the Naperville precincts in 2018, helping propel Democrat Sean Casten to a victory. Results aren’t deemed official until all provisional ballots have been counted and validated. The deadline for that is Nov. 20. Hultgren’s previously red precinct map in Wheatland Township in Naperville went all blue, based on unofficial Will numbers, to give Democratic challenger Lauren Underwood of Naperville the win. Foster also gained momentum in the 11th Congressional race this year, picking up four DuPage Township precincts and a Wheatland precinct that in Naperville traditionally had been red for at least the last decade, unofficial results show. Foster performed much better in the Lisle and Naperville Township portions of the city, losing in three precincts Tuesday to his Republican challenger Nick Stella, and unofficial figures indicate the losses in those precincts were by 10 or fewer votes. Jim Ruhl, chairman of the Naperville Township Republican Organization, said what drove suburban voters to the polls was more related to personality than economics. “You cannot deny we have record job growth,” he said. And Ruhl expects voters will flip back in the next election cycle when the people they’ve elected fail to perform. “The very politics going on in Chicago are what will be coming. It will have a big impact on the DuPage County area,” Ruhl said. . .Several sections of the city remain primarily Republican. Spots where voters consistently vote Republican at the precinct level are located on the east side of Naperville between Chicago Avenue and Hobson Road and between South Washington Street and Plainfield-Naperville Road south of Oswego Road. Other pockets are located north of Book Road in the area near Naperville Presbyterian Church, in the south near Winding Creek Park, and in the area east of McDowell Grove Forest Preserve. . .Determining how a person will vote depends on multiple factors, including education, race, gender and socio-economic status, said Suzanne Chod, associate professor of political science and coordinator of gender and women’s studies at North Central College in Naperville. She said generally the more educated a person is the more likely he or she will vote for a Democrat. “Less educated people are more likely to vote Republican. Education is the biggest predictor of voting habits,” Chod said. People of color, women, and those who are on the higher end of the socio-economic scale, she said, also are inclined to vote Democratic. From a political science perspective, it’s no surprise Democratic candidates did well in Naperville. Chod said voters in suburban communities surrounding large cities tend to be wealthier and more educated. The fact that more people of color are moving into Naperville checks another box off the list. Kerr said Naperville’s demographics are changing as evidenced by the 800 people who attended a Naperville interfaith service last week in reaction to hate-motivated gun attack during a Jewish Shabbat service in Pittsburgh. The Jewish congregation was joined by the spiritual leaders of 11 faiths from the area, including Mormons, Hindus, Muslims and Catholics. “That’s the community we live in now,” Kerr said. “They’re concerned about people besides themselves.”)

MOTLEY FOOL
— 3 Ways to Increase Your Chances of Getting a Raise for 2019 Want a pay boost next year? Here’s how to score one. – Maurie Backman (DIERSEN: Federal employees cannot get significant pay increases by just asking for them. They must apply for promotions. My Democrat GAO superiors, supervisors, coworkers, and subordinates were beyond furious in 1986 when I successfully applied for a promotion to GS-13, currently $96,403/year. Because of that, they “pulled out all the stops” to stop me from ever getting a promotion to GS-14, currently $113,920/year. In 1987, they forced the GAO manager who had promoted me to GS-13 in 1986 to retire. He had hired me in 1980 and had gotten me assigned to audits of IRS in 1986. In 1989, they really “pulled out all the stops” to get rid of me. They threw me off audits of IRS, gave me unfair performance expectations, and gave me an unfair performance appraisal. In 1989, if Henry Hyde had not intervened for me, they might have succeeded in getting rid of me. Because it frustrated their tremendous efforts to get rid of me, they were beyond furious a) when in 1990, I successfully applied to work for the young Jewish female GS-15 in the office who was responsible for audits of federal financial institution regulators, b) when later in 1990, I became a Certified Fraud Examiner, c) when in 1994, I became a Certified Government Financial Manager, d) when in 1996, I became a Certified Financial Services Auditor, and e) when in 1997, I became a Forensic Accountant. They were especially beyond furious in 1997 when I earned a master’s degree in financial markets and trading from IIT.)

https://illinoisfamilyaction.org/2018/11/pinocchio-rauners-staffer-tells-conservatives-to-abandon-all-hope-ye-who-enter-the-gop/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: A former staffer for Pinocchio Rauner wasted no time telling conservatives to abandon all hope. In a commentary appearing in Friday’s Chicago Tribune, Patrick Wohl tried to scare the Illinois GOP away from any rightward movement. Scaremonger Wohl ominously warned, “The Illinois GOP needs unity, not a race to the right.” That’s code language for “Abandon the social issues, you idiot right-wing lunatics!” How about this for a revision: “The Illinois GOP needs unity on the entire GOP platform, not abandonment of the parts of it ignorant RINOs and Libertarians don’t like.” Wohl describes Jeanne Ives‘ candidacy as “undoubtedly the first foray into this impending debacle” of moving the party rightward. Wohl suggests we look at the only kind of Republicans he claims can get elected in Illinois, from “Bruce Rauner to Mark Kirk to Judy Baar Topinka to Jim Edgar.” But why is that? Could it be that people like Wohl and Pat Brady relentlessly tell conservatives that they must sacrifice their beliefs on the altar of party unity, while never telling RINO and Libertarian-leaning Republicans to sacrifice their beliefs on the “social issues” for the sake of unity? (Interesting sidenote: former GOP Governor Jim Edgar is an official member of the JB Pritker transition team.) Maybe the fact that millennial Wohl previously worked for Rand Paul‘s and Eric Greiten‘s campaigns tells us something about his view of unifying around RINO positions.)

CHICAGO HEADLINE CLUB
— Chicago Headline Club demands White House reinstate Jim Acosta’s credentials (DIERSEN: I should write a book about activists, candidates, elected officials, party leaders, major donors, political consultants, and fundraisers who claim to be religious, conservative, and/or Republican, but who have refused to accept my GOPUSA Illinois press credentials or constructively or literally revoked them. Better yet, I should sue them.)
http://prod.headlineclub.org/2018/11/09/chicago-headline-club-demands-white-house-reinstate-jim-acostas-credentials/
(FROM THE ANNOUNCEMENT: We, the board of the Chicago Headline Club, the largest chapter of the Society of Professional Journalists, demand that the White House immediately reinstate the full credentials of CNN reporter Jim Acosta. A free press is a pillar of our democracy. Without a free press, there are no independent agencies to inform the public, expose injustice and hold the powerful to account. Some of the most important reporting comes from those who cover the White House and our nation’s government each day. The president first insulted Mr. Acosta as he asked a question during a news conference. An intern then tried to remove a microphone from Mr. Acosta’s hand to stop him from asking questions. This is clearly confirmed by video, and accounts of other reporters at the press conference. Hours later, White House Press Secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders announced Mr. Acosta’s credentials were being revoked indefinitely, meaning he would no longer have access to cover the White House on behalf of one of the country’s largest cable networks. To justify this outrageous retaliation, Ms. Sanders falsely accused Mr. Acosta of accosting the intern. Hours later, she followed up by propagating a doctored video, edited to make it appear as though he assaulted the young woman. This is disgraceful. Ms. Sanders, in announcing the revocation of Mr. Acosta’s credentials, said the administration appreciates and welcomes tough questions from journalists. This is comically absurd and there is only evidence to the contrary. This administration has routinely disparaged free press and belittled its value, it has demeaned strong news coverage, and has attacked reporters who dare set the record straight in the face of lies. It was bad enough to accuse Mr. Acosta of doing something he obviously did not do. That the White House would then attempt to support the lie by disseminating an altered video is especially detestable and shows the lengths to which this administration will go to wage war against the truth. Jim Acosta did nothing wrong. He is a devoted journalist who did exactly what his colleagues, bosses and the public expect of a reporter in his position: He questioned the leader of our country and demanded answers. He sought accountability. The banishment of Mr. Acosta from the White House is unprecedented in this country. Sadly, it is not an unfamiliar tactic. Public officials and elected leaders at all levels of government routinely refuse to speak to reporters they deem unfriendly and block access to entire news outlets. We saw this occur on Election Day when Rep. Steve King of Iowa barred the Des Moines Register from covering his election night event, refusing to credential any of their reporters. This treatment of journalists is inexcusable whether they cover the White House or a local school board. More importantly, a public official rebuffing accountability for their actions is a disservice to the people they are supposed to serve. No public official should be above scrutiny. And no journalist in this country should be punished for doing their job. If the White House truly values the work of the press, as Ms. Sanders indicated in her statement, there is an obvious way to demonstrate that: restore Jim Acosta’s credentials and end its vicious attacks on journalists.)

GOPUSA
— Jim Acosta: CNN’s Political Activist at the White House (DIERSEN: I should write a book about activists, candidates, elected officials, party leaders, major donors, political consultants, and fundraisers who claim to be religious, conservative, and/or Republican, but who have refused to accept my GOPUSA Illinois press credentials or constructively or literally revoked them. Better yet, I should sue them.)
http://www.gopusa.com/?p=58739
(FROM THE ARTICLE: At that point Acosta wasn’t a reporter asking questions. He was an activist debating policy and trying to change the president’s mind. “Most of the people there were serious reporters asking serious questions, but Jim Acosta, I thought, embarrassed himself today,” Fox News Sunday anchorman Chris Wallace said after the briefing. Let’s cast aside the officially stated reason for pulling Acosta’s White House credentials — that he laid his hand on a White House intern trying to pull the microphone away. Video shows physical contact. Viewers still are debating whether the contact actually was combative or just a byproduct of Acosta’s gesturing. Let’s instead talk about Acosta repeatedly interrupting Trump during a January 2017 press conference more than a week before his inauguration. Let’s talk about last June, when Acosta interrupted a historic signing ceremony with North Korea with his questions. Let’s talk about he shouted at those two leaders about nuclear weapons. When he didn’t get an answer, a hot microphone seemed to pick up a flustered Acosta saying, “Hey, if they’re not going to let me in the (expletive) meeting, that’s what happens … That’s the way it goes, baby.”)

November 9 Morning Edition

CHICAGO TRIBUNE
— FRONT PAGE TOP OF FOLD WITH COLOR PHOTO OF PRITZKER: With Pritzker win, pot legalization is now in legislators’ hands, but not all are on board – Robert McCoppin (DIERSEN: If you promote pot, you promote destruction.)
https://www.chicagotribune.com/news/local/breaking/ct-met-pritzker-illinois-marijuana-legalize-legislature-20181108-story.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Kevin Sabet, head of Smart Approaches to Marijuana, which opposes legalization, said he thinks the study authors are biased. Sabet said they failed to account for the serious downsides of drug use, such as car accidents and substance abuse. He also said decriminalization of marijuana, which took effect in Illinois in 2016, addresses many of the social justice issues. Holdouts against legalization remain ready to fight it in the General Assembly. House Republican leader Jim Durkin said lawmakers should stop their rush toward legalization. “I will never support legalization,” he said. “I don’t like how quickly we are moving. Illinois should not be part of this lab experiment. I see no societal value.” Durkin supports medical marijuana for pain and end-of-life care and said that program appears successful in prohibiting access for underage use and the illegal drug market. He called for lawmakers to review the results when that pilot program expires in summer 2020, before moving beyond it, but said he does not know how much opposition remains in Springfield.)

Ever-increasingly, they want me to agree to not report anything about their fundraisers before they will let me attend their fundraisers. Since 2005, they have viciously used against me what happened with GOPUSA, Talon News, and White House Correspondent Jeff Gannon. SEE: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talon_News They paint me as being a clone of Jeff Gannon and even worse things. Ever since I became a GOPUSA reporter in 2000, my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes have hinted/implied/argued/shouted that I ask bad questions at press conferences and share privileged information with reporters that have caused Republican candidates to be defeated and even worse things. Of course, I should sue my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: HB40 reared its head in Tuesday’s election. Every incumbent who voted for the controversial measure was reelected, and sponsors of the HB4114 to repeal HB40 were defeated. They are state Reps. Peter Breen, Christine Winger and Sheri Jesiel. Breen’s defeat was particularly shocking. Along with being had been an outspoken opponent of HB40, which repealed the “trigger” language in Illinois stating that the day Roe v. Wade is ever modified or overturned, abortion would be illegal in Illinois with no exceptions. HB40 also removed the restriction on state funding for some abortions. After the bill passed and was signed by the governor, Breen filed suit to dismantle the legislation. Personal PAC, which supports abortion rights, spent more than $300,000 to unseat Breen, “and it was worth every penny,” Terry Cosgrove, president and CEO of Personal PAC told POLITICO, calling it one of the political action committee’s “biggest victories ever.”)

BLOOMBERG
— Orange County Leans Purple in Shift for California Republicans – Christopher Palmeri
https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2018-11-08/orange-county-leans-purple-in-shift-for-california-republicans
— New York Times Beats Race, Age Discrimination Class Claims (DIERSEN: Rather than fight race discrimination, fight gender discrimination, and/or fight age discrimination, virtually all of my superiors, supervisors, and coworkers in the federal government who were White, male, and/or older, and who were victims of the aforesaid discrimination, “cut deals” to keep their jobs. I should write a book about the aforesaid in GAO’s Chicago office who, to keep their jobs, agreed to help GAO a) waste my career and b) force me to retire in 1997 when I was 49 years old.)
https://news.bloomberglaw.com/class-action/ny-times-beats-race-age-discrimination-class-claims
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The New York Times Co. convinced a federal court Nov. 8 that employee allegations of race and age discrimination can’t be certified as a class action. There are too few employees in each of the proposed classes to justify class status, Judge P. Kevin Castel wrote for the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York. The plaintiffs identified 10 employees for the race class and 24 for the age class.)

 

FORBES
— If You Don’t Want To Flip Burgers At 67, Do These 10 Things Right Now – Jack Kelly (DIERSEN: What are some of the things that you did to qualify yourself for better paying jobs and to keep those jobs? I earned 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.)
https://www.forbes.com/sites/jackkelly/2018/11/08/if-you-dont-want-to-flip-burgers-at-67-do-these-10-things-right-now/#452f15ff3586
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Here is what you should immediately start doing if you are in your late 30s and older: 1. Think critically if your type of work can be done later in life. Does your job have certain physical manual work requirements that have a built in expiration date as you age? Could technology easily disrupt your job? Can your position be relocated? Could a junior (cheaper) person take over your responsibilities with a little training period? Will your job be too taxing and stressful to continue in your 50s, 60s or 70s? 2. If your job doesn’t easily lend itself to working into your sixties, start figuring out a second career right away before it’s too late. 3. Start a side hustle. If it doesn’t work keep trying until something clicks. 4. Consider going back to school to earn a degree which may open some new doors, and offer a new lease on life. 5. Obtain training in a niche area that could lead to a second career. 6. Save and invest as much money as possible to allow you to retire on your own terms. This will be difficult because it requires giving up fancy vacations, flashy cars, and an extravagant lifestyle. 7. If you live in an expensive and high taxed neighborhood, sell your home, move to a lower cost state, and bank the savings. 8. Maybe pivot to a job with the government, education or other sectors that can’t discriminate like the private sector does. 9. Start a side business that is a passion but could also provide a steady stream of income. 10. Don’t bury your head in the sand and pretend that you’ll never grow old.)
— How Much Longer Will You Work? – Sara Zeff Geber
https://www.forbes.com/sites/sarazeffgeber/2018/11/08/how-much-longer-will-you-work/#ba8e51a32d2a
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Are you one of the many baby boomers who have done the math and determined that even with Social Security you have not saved enough money to retire? If so, welcome to a very large club. The Employee Benefits Research Institute (EBRI) and the Federal Reserve estimate the average accumulated wealth for workers in their 50s and 60s is less than $150,000. That amount will surely not support a 30+ year retirement, especially in the coastal areas of the U.S. Most financial advisors are recommending accumulating assets of at least $1million to ensure you will be able to finance your full retirement, including health care costs and care for yourself and your spouse or loved one. If you don’t have quite that much, does it mean you will have to work forever or live in your wealthy cousin’s basement? Probably not, but it depends. First of all, if you are in good health, why do you want to retire? If you aren’t sick of what you are doing, hang in there for a while and accumulate a bit more savings. If you are chomping at the bit to leave your current employer or stop doing whatever draws a 1099 at the end of the year, then it may be time to consider what else you might want to do that would still earn a paycheck and be more aligned with your current interests and values.)

METRO EAST SUN
— Republican Jason Plummer gets a clear mandate with 70 percent of the vote – Glenn Minnis (DIERSEN: How clear was the mandate that your Republican Precinct Committeeman got on March 20, 2018? My critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes would stress that only 81 of 112, or only 72%, of those who cast March 20, 2018 Republican primary ballots in my precinct voted for me. However, what do you say to those who cast votes to do damage? There are about 30 of the aforesaid in my precinct a) who vote in Republican primaries to do damage, b) who never vote for candidates in uncontested Republican primary races, c) who have never voted for me to be their Republican Precinct Committeeman, and d) who have always voted for Democrats in general elections.)

— Under the bus he goes (DIERSEN: Who has thrown you under the bus? I should write a book about those who have thrown me under the bus. They blame me for their problems, for your problems, for my problems, and for everyone’s problems. They blame me for all defeats that Republican candidates have suffered in Illinois since 2000, and especially the defeats that Republican candidates on ballots in my precinct have suffered.)
https://capitolfax.com/2018/11/07/under-the-bus-he-goes-7/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: House Republican leader Jim Durkin of Western Springs said Tuesday’s results showed a gain for Democrats. “We got hit pretty hard, and statewide it was really difficult for the Republicans,” he said. “The governor underperformed in areas that were important to us.” Durkin also said antipathy toward Trump in the suburbs hurt his party, as evidenced by losses of Republican U.S. Reps. Peter Roskam and Randy Hultgren, even though the president helped Downstate Republicans.)
