DAILY CALLER
— THE LIBERAL JIHAD AGAINST TUCKER CARLSON – Derek Hunter
https://dailycaller.com/2019/03/12/liberal-mob-tucker-carlson-reaction-podcast/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: On the show today we get into the latest attempt by the progressive Gestapo to destroy someone who refuses to live on their thought plantation and how Tucker Carlson is standing up to the liberal mob. Plus, we discuss how more than 2,000 illegal aliens are reportedly quarantined due to communicable diseases and how the Democratic primary is embracing the concept of reparations for slavery, which could be the dumbest idea in a party of dumb ideas. Leftists have set their sights on Tucker Carlson this week, pretending to be outraged about wise-cracking jokes told on a radio show more than a decade ago. The progressive purity Gestapo demands absolute obedience, anything short of that must be destroyed. Tucker, to his credit, refused to cave and is standing strong, refusing to apologize for jokes dating back to 2006. Still, this Jihad continues and is being perpetrated not just by activists but by journalists as well. Maybe it’s time to hold liberals to their own standards? Maybe, until leftists start to live by the rules they set for others, conservatives hold them to their rules and institute an advertising boycott too? Human decency is too much to expect, maybe it’s time for some of their own medicine? Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) is currently holding more than 2,000 illegal aliens in quarantine because there is reportedly an outbreak among the illegals of contagious diseases that have largely been eradicated in the U.S. This news is odd considering how liberals attacked Laura Ingraham a few months ago for saying this very same thing, now liberal outlets have been forced to report it because the problem has grown beyond their ability to ignore it. Democrats are starting to rush toward the idea of reparations for slavery. Out of ideas the American people support, pandering is all the rage on the left and there is no greater pander than the idea of big government checks for free. The party is now supporting the concept of taking money from people who’ve done nothing wrong and giving it to people who haven’t been wronged because people were wronged more than 150 years ago.)

DAILY HERALD
— State and local taxes are making rich richer – Christopher Ingraham
https://www.dailyherald.com/business/20190310/analysis-state-and-local-taxes-are-making-rich-richer
(FROM THE ARTICLE: State and local taxes effectively redistribute national income from the poor to the very rich, according to data released by the Institute on Taxation and Economic Policy (ITEP), a progressive think tank. Many state and local governments are heavily reliant on sales taxes, rather than income taxes. Lower-income households tend to spend a greater fraction of their earnings on purchases, including necessities like food and transportation, than higher-income households do. As a result, sales taxes take a bigger bite, percentagewise, from the paychecks of low-income households than high-income ones.)

CHICAGO TRIBUNE
— OUTSTANDING: High school students rally in Springfield against legalizing recreational marijuana; lawmaker coalition seeks slowdown in process – Robert McCoppin (DIERSEN: Needless-to-say, individuals, organizations, companies, governments, and countries that claim to be religious, conservative, and/or Republican should vehemently oppose legalizing recreational marijuana.)
https://www.chicagotribune.com/news/local/breaking/ct-met-students-rally-against-marijuana-legalization-20190306-story.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Alarmed by the movement to legalize recreational marijuana in Illinois, high school students, law enforcement officials and lawmakers rallied against pot in Springfield on Wednesday. A coalition of about 40 lawmakers, led by Democratic state Rep. Marty Moylan of Des Plaines and House Republican leader Jim Durkin of Western Springs, also is sponsoring a resolution to slow down the effort to allow sales and taxation of cannabis. The resolution, supported primarily by suburban and downstate lawmakers, calls for delaying legalization so that lawmakers and stakeholders may consider the societal costs and examine data from other states. To show their opposition to legalization, about 90 students from Stevenson High School in Lincolnshire, Mundelein High School, and Kankakee High School rallied in the Capitol rotunda and met with lawmakers, according to Jamie Epstein, adult co-sponsor of Stevenson’s Catalyst Club. Carson Ezell, a member of the Catalyst Club at Stevenson, cited studies that found those who start using marijuana when they are young are more likely to become addicted, and that heavy marijuana use at a young age can lower one’s IQ. “As a teen, I feel the industry is really targeting us, with a lot of edibles in candy and fruit flavors,” he said. “It’s really scary to me.” The Illinois Association of Chiefs of Police also took part in the rally, citing data from Colorado showing more traffic accidents, fatalities and overall hospitalizations involving people with signs of marijuana use in their bodies. A spokesman for the Illinois branch of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, Robert Moore, predicted that blacks will again be victimized by legalization through greater addiction, increased law enforcement penalties for drugged driving, and loss of jobs and public housing due to zero-tolerance drug policies. He also was skeptical of claims that the tax money will go to minority communities. “We don’t need an additional substance that’s going to impair our youth and citizens,” he said. “This is just bad legislation — bad for our community and bad for the nation.”)

— Total household net worth in the fourth quarter of 2018 dropped by the largest amount since the fourth quarter of 2008 when the country was amid a steep recession, according to data released Thursday by the Federal Reserve. – Christopher Ingraham
https://www.washingtonpost.com/us-policy/2019/03/07/household-net-worth-falls-by-largest-amount-since-great-recession-new-fed-data-show/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The typical American household, however, may not feel much of a financial pinch as a result of the drop. For starters, stocks have since recovered much of their late 2018 losses, although they remain below the record highs set earlier in the year. More important, most of the household wealth in the United States is owned by the country’s richest families. In 2016, for instance, the top 1 percent of families owned 40 percent of all household wealth, with the next 9 percent of families holding an additional 29 percent. That leaves 21 percent of the country’s net worth for the remaining 90 percent of American families. Furthermore, about half of American families don’t own any stocks, while the top 10 percent of families control about 84 percent of the stock market. Taken together, the numbers are a reminder that the stock market is not the economy, and that big national-level data sets may not necessarily reflect financial reality for typical American families, many of whom live paycheck to paycheck and struggle to meet even small unexpected expenses.)

https://www.wsj.com/articles/can-the-worlds-wealthiest-absorb-the-high-end-home-glut-11551830488
(FROM THE ARTICLE: In Manhattan, there are around 500 homes asking $10 million and up, and a surfeit of mega-pricey properties is also appearing in Los Angeles and Miami. The growing glut of wildly expensive homes begs the question: Are there enough people who can afford them? Perhaps eventually. Despite a darkening economic outlook globally, a new survey suggests wealth creation will remain constant in 2019. The global population of ultrawealthy individuals—defined as having a net-worth of at least $30 million—is forecast to rise 22% to nearly 250,000 over the next five years, according to a recent report by international real-estate firm Knight Frank. That means an additional 43,000 people will be worth more than $30 million by 2023.)

DAILY HERALD
— Former DuPage GOP chairwoman remembered as ‘trailblazer’ – Katlyn Smith
https://www.dailyherald.com/news/20190306/former-dupage-gop-chairwoman-remembered-as-trailblazer
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Longtime DuPage County Republican Chairwoman Barbara Murphy may not have considered herself a trailblazer, even if her contemporaries did. Her obituary notes Murphy always gave credit to former state Senate President James “Pate” Philip for “including her as the only woman in the proverbial ‘all male smoke filled’ meetings.” But it also was Murphy’s sharp and highly regarded political mind that propelled her to the top of the male-dominated party leadership in DuPage. Long before the blue wave loosened the party’s grip, DuPage was one of the most reliably Republican strongholds in the country when Murphy was a prominent GOP operative in the 1990s. “But Barbara never blew her own horn,” said Pat Durante, the former Addison Township GOP chairman. “She did her job. She knew that what she would do was good for the party. She wasn’t one to pound her chest. That wasn’t Barbara Murphy.” . . “Barb always seemed to be everywhere,” former DuPage County Board Chairman Robert Schillerstrom said. “When you were either running for office or held office or interested in politics or part of the Republican Party, you knew of and hopefully knew Barb because she was a leader.” Schillerstrom called Murphy a “good listener” who made herself available. But she also was forceful in swaying GOP organizers to her point of view. “Barbara would let you know what she needed, what she wanted, what she expected of you,” Durante said. “She was very outspoken and the beauty of Barbara — when Barbara would say something, people would listen and she motivated people.” Durante relied on Murphy to help him start the Addison Township’s Republican Women’s Club. She was “the go-to person” for providing trusted advice to encourage women to get involved in politics. “I don’t know a statewide candidate that came to DuPage County that didn’t take five minutes to call or meet with Barbara,” Durante said. “If you were running statewide and you came to DuPage, one of the people you wanted to visit with was Barbara Murphy.” She played an instrumental role in Mary Jo Arndt’s election as Republican National Committeewoman, Durante said. And she ran DuPage County’s Lincoln Day dinners with an “iron hand.” “God help that person who would get in her way,” Durante said. “She was a tiger.”)

— President Trump Vows to Protect Free Speech on College Campuses – Here’s How – Christian Ellis (DIERSEN: Republican U.S. Senators from Illinois and Republican U.S. Representatives from Illinois have done little or nothing to protect federal employees in Illinois who are Republican from political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, age discrimination, and retaliation. Because of that lack of protection, a) 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 $19,203 (26%) pay cut in today’s dollars to transfer from IRS to GAO in 1980; b) 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; and c) my Democrat Post Office superiors forced me resign in 1969 and disallowed my sick leave requests in 1969 and 1968.)
