— FRONT PAGE: Possible motive for 4-town merger push: Lowering property taxes – Marie Wilson  (DIERSEN: What percent of the real estate in your municipality, in your township/ward, in your county, and in Illinois is off the real estate tax roles?)
http://www.dailyherald.com/article/20170127/news/170128917/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The attorney representing petitioners who want to merge Lisle, Warrenville and Woodridge with Naperville says the initiative is all about money. Annexing the smaller communities to Naperville would allow the larger city to use economies of scale to reduce the property tax burden on residents, Frank Avila said. The Chicago attorney said he still “is not authorized” to say who is behind the merger push. “This is about making life more affordable,” Avila said. But mayors of the four communities say talk of lowering taxes is “smoke and mirrors” and those behind the proposal have a political motive, especially because of the “clandestine and haphazard” way the idea has come to the fore. “People with serious issues bring it forward in a little more responsible manner, and this certainly was not done in a responsible manner,” Warrenville Mayor David Brummel said. “I just don’t think it’s all about taxes.”)

— Trump Pushes Voter Fraud Claim Citing Fringe Blogger Gregg Phillips – ABC News (DIERSEN: Since 2000, my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes have demonized me, denigrated me, and condemned me as being a “fringe blogger” and even worse things.)
http://www.wjbdradio.com/politics/2017/01/27/trump-pushes-voter-fraud-claim-citing-fringe-blogger
(FROM THE ARTICLE: President Trump cited a new study Thursday to back up his claim that millions of ballots were cast illegally in the 2016 election – this one from a widely discredited blogger who has thus far declined to provide any evidence. The president’s latest source: 56-year old Gregg Phillips of Austin, Texas, a man who has been roundly criticized by mainstream academics and political opponents as a conspiracy theorist. His critics note that Phillips has claimed the Obama Department of Homeland Security hacked the election. Asked by ABC News if he had evidence to support his claim that millions of people voted illegally, Phillips demurred, saying he “is building that case right now.” “I may be a whacko, I may be a nut, I don’t know, I don’t really care what they say about me,” he said. Trump thought enough of Phillips’s theory that he cited it on Twitter. “Gregg Phillips and crew say at least 3,000,000 votes were illegal. We must do better!” he tweeted on Friday morning. To Phillips, who has argued that a recent tax lien against him is the product of political persecution by the IRS, the presidential attention came as a shock. “That was a little unexpected,” Phillips said of the Trump tweet. “What are you going to say? I mean, I’m just a regular guy and all of a sudden the President tweets my name and my whole world lit up for a little while today.” . . . On Thursday, Trump made Phillips the newest expert to bolster his voter fraud claims.)

Because in 1988, I became an active member in a class action lawsuit that charged GAO with reverse discrimination, age discrimination, and retaliation.)

WASHINGTON EXAMINER
— Obama gave foreign ‘students’ 180,000 U.S. jobs, $32B in lost wages – PAUL BEDARD  (DIERSEN: Ever-increasingly, Democrat employers and RINO employers make it clear that they prefer citizens of foreign countries over citizens of America.)
http://www.washingtonexaminer.com/obama-gave-foreign-students-180000-u.s.-jobs-32b-in-lost-wages/article/2613146
(FROM THE ARTICLE: A pro-immigrant program was expanded under President Obama that paid U.S. firms $2.7 billion to hire 180,000 foreign “students,” jobs that likely otherwise would have gone to Americans, according to a new report. The so-called “Optional Practical Training” was supposedly set up for foreign students but actually included no training and put college graduates in the high-paying jobs for three years. The Center for Immigration Studies, which on Friday urged President Trump to stop the program, estimated that the jobs paid $60,000, suggesting a total of $11 billion in annual wages lost to American workers, over $32 billion over three years. In his Inaugural Address, Trump advocated an “America First” theme. The Center said the program, also used under former President George W. Bush, paid companies $10,000-$15,000 to hire the foreigner college grads for three years.)

STATE REPTESENTATIVE SCOTT DRURY
— After not voting for Michael J. Madigan for Speaker of the House, this is what has happened: I did not receive a committee chairmanship;
I lost my Vice Chairman position on the Judiciary-Criminal Committee; I was removed from the Judiciary-Criminal Committee; and What can only be described as petty, the day after the Speaker vote, Speaker Madigan’s staff provided Democratic caucus  members with an engraved clock as a gift — I did not get one. The message: “Represent the public at your own risk.” (DIERSEN: Generally, those with lots of religious, government, political, and/or financial clout punish those who do not pander to them, those who do not serve as one of their operatives, those who do not serve as one of their dupes, and/or those who do not give them money.  Who gets punished in your municipality, in your township/ward, and in your county?)

http://www.dailyherald.com/article/20170125/news/170129345/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: “We’re asking you to put on your Sherlock Holmes hats and investigate,” said presenter and Teen Librarian Alice Son. “Constantly play the devil’s advocate.” One evaluation method — which had an acronym that amused the crowd — was the CRAAP Test. It stands for currency, relevance, authority, accuracy and purpose — things a reader should consider. “There is a bias for certain sources, so consider both sides,” Son said. The presentation included discussions on reading news on social media and asking people to place different media outlets on a “political bias spectrum.” They encouraged people to read and evaluate articles before instantly sharing them online; to read stories on both side of the spectrum or something that challenges their opinions; to regularly clear the cookies from their internet browsers to prevent the same types of stories from showing up; and to fact-check information at credible websites like Snopes.com, Politifact.com and FactCheck.org. “It’s sad that libraries, and various other institutions, have to teach people how to protect themselves,” said attendee Ralph Blasko of Arlington Heights. “We are all being manipulated every day … we have to be wary of everything.” The library will host another presentation on the topic March 23, and similar events are being planned at other libraries around the suburbs.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: Media Matters asked for help building a “comprehensive” database of reporters who “get to ask” questions at the White House Wednesday, sending a series of bizarre tweets in which the heads of various journalists are circled in red ink. “[Media Matters] is going to try to maintain a comprehensive database of who gets to ask questions at press briefings,” senior fellow Matthew Gertz tweeted. “We need your help to ID some!” Gertz then began tweeting out image after image of reporters asking questions in the White House briefing room, describing the question asked in each one and asking followers to identify the reporter. Each one’s head is circled in red ink. “Who is this?” he tweeted, along with one of the photos. “On Monday he asked about the Women’s March on Washington and the March for Life.” . . .White House press secretary Sean Spicer has switched up the pecking order in the first few briefings, opting to give outlets such as The New York Post and Christian Broadcasting Network an opportunity to ask questions, in addition to the more traditionally favored networks and wires.)

— How the wealthy Obamas could become wealthier – Thomas Heath  (DIERSEN: Democrats demonize, denigrate, and condemn Republicans who are wealthy, but not Democrats who are wealthy.)
https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/business/wp/2017/01/23/how-the-wealthy-obamas-could-become-wealthier/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Speaker? Professor? Author? Board member? Owner of a professional basketball team? Those are among the job prospects being bandied about for Barack Obama’s time post-presidency. All ex-presidents receive an annual pension of $205,700 annually, which is pegged to inflation. And Obama’s kicked in on Jan. 20. They also receive federal money for offices and administrative help. Beyond that, they are on their own. Obama is a relatively young man of 55, so the ex-president — who is kicking back for a few days near Palm Springs in Rancho Mirage, Calif. — could spend decades making a living from several income streams. One safe bet is public speaking, which has enriched most former presidents. An ex-president can command $250,000 or more for a speech. “We don’t know what Obama is going to do, but I’m comfortable saying he isn’t going to go out and grab as many high-priced speeches as he can get,” said James Thurber, director of the Center for Congressional and Presidential Studies at American University. “He’s going to lean toward book writing, writing his memoirs. He’s an intellectual who has had good success with two books and probably will have good success with future books.” In just 2009, Obama earned $5.1 million from those two books, “The Audacity of Hope,” and “Dreams From My Father.” The New York Times estimated that Obama and his wife, Michelle, could earn anywhere from $20 million to $45 million from future book contracts. And Obama said in his farewell news conference that he would like to write after leaving office. It worked for Ulysses S. Grant. The former president secured his family’s financial future when the Civil War hero finished his memoirs while suffering from terminal throat cancer. The Obamas are already wealthy. One report a year ago pegged the president’s net worth at $12.2 million. That and his pension should keep him comfortable as he rents a home in Washington’s upscale Kalorama neighborhood for $22,000 a month. Obama, an avid golfer, is also reportedly noodling around for a home in Rancho Mirage, where golf is akin to a religion. Obama could go back to teaching. He was a lecturer at the University of Chicago Law School for 12 years before he was elected to the U.S. Senate. The Harvard Law School graduate could return to Chicago, where the Obamas own a $1.5 million home, or teach in Washington, or at Columbia University in New York, where he studied as an undergraduate.)

— Playing the Trump card in Bolingbrook mayoral race – Mark Brown  (DIERSEN: Who are anti-Trumps punishing the most in your precinct, in your municipality, in your township/ward, in your county, and in Illinois?)
http://chicago.suntimes.com/politics/brown-playing-the-trump-card-in-bolingbrook-mayoral-race/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Longtime Bolingbrook Mayor Roger Claar hosted a big fundraiser for Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump last fall at the fancy village-owned golf clubhouse known locally as the “Rog Mahal.”  Barely a month later, residents of the southwest suburban village voted 66 percent for Hillary Clinton to 27 percent for Trump. Will County board member Jackie Traynere, a Democrat, hopes to use that apparent political disconnect between Claar and his constituents to bring an end to his sometimes controversial 30 years in office. Since announcing her intention to run against Claar in the April 4 municipal elections, Traynere has sought to make the race in part a referendum on Claar’s support for the new president. “Trump isn’t the reason Roger should go. It really is his management of the village,” Traynere, 54, told me recently in a phone interview from Leavenworth, Kansas, where she was traveling on business in her role as a union organizer for the American Federation of Government Employees. But she adds: “The Trump support really pushed people over the edge.” Claar, just back from Trump’s inauguration, argued Tuesday that traditional party politics don’t belong in municipal elections and that he will gladly run on the record that has made him one of the longest serving mayors in the Chicago area. “I think people are generally pretty happy with what’s going on in Bolingbrook,” said the 71-year-old Claar, who aggressively steered the village’s growth from a population of about 33,000 when he took over to more than 75,000 today. Indeed, it’s a tricky business to inject national politics into a municipal election. Candidates don’t even run under party labels. And voter turnout is usually only a small fraction of what it is in a presidential election. But the fact is that Bolingbrook, an increasingly diverse community in every sense of the word, has been trending Democratic in statewide and national elections for the past decade. That suggests an opening for a Democrat mounting a serious campaign, and Traynere seems to be doing just that. She has hired a professional campaign manager and claims the endorsements of Sen. Dick Durbin and Cook County Board President Toni Preckwinkle among others. Traynere was just re-elected to her third term on the Will County Board and served last year as a Bernie Sanders delegate to the Democratic National Convention. Claar starts the election season with a campaign fund of more than $500,000, barely half of what he once kept on hand, but says he has what he needs. “This whole thing is about power. They see this as an opportunity to take over. They want to be in charge of Bolingbrook,” said Claar, who vowed that he will not seek endorsements from any Republicans, including Trump. That doesn’t mean Claar is backing down from his support for Trump, whom he describes as a “breath of fresh air” on the political scene. “He called it like it is. That’s kind of the way I operate,” said Claar. Claar operates as a full-time mayor and pays himself commensurately with a salary of $140,102, not including a $6,000 car allowance. He emphasizes that’s less than Bolingbrook paid the village administrator whose job he eliminated. Claar also is collecting two public pensions: $55,757 from his previous life as a school administrator and $4,532 from his tenure on the Illinois Tollway Authority. His total annual taxpayer compensation of $200,000 looms as a potential campaign issue. Claar resigned from the tollway board in 2000 after the Sun-Times reported he was raising campaign funds from tollway vendors. That was just one of many minor scandals that have dogged Claar through the years, but nothing that has turned the voters of Bolingbrook against him. “I have been vetted on numerous occasions over false accusations,” Claar declared. He predicts Traynere’s emphasis on Trump could backfire. I predict it will make for a more interesting than usual municipal election season.)

— U-46 board member: New curriculum ‘glorifies communism,’ presents ‘pseudoscience’ – Madhu Krishnamurthy
http://www.dailyherald.com/article/20170124/news/170129496/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: A proposal for new digital literacy curriculum and resources has one Elgin school board member concerned about students being indoctrinated. The Elgin Area School District U-46 school board Monday night voted 5-2 to approve curriculum for prekindergarten through 12th grades. One school board member voting against, Jeanette Ward, objected to some of the materials that are part of the digital curriculum. “I will be voting ‘no’ on any curriculum proposal that relies on any text or resource that glorifies communism and denigrates capitalism, deliberately misrepresents Israel’s history and right to live in its own land, presents the pseudoscience of climate change as established scientific fact, or celebrates Planned Parenthood Founder Margaret Sanger as a champion for women when, in fact, she was a racist who believed in eugenics, more specifically in killing as many unborn African-American babies as possible,” Ward said.)

I worked on audits of federal financial industry regulators for almost 9 years, on audits of IRS for 3 years, and on audits of many other federal agencies for almost 6 years. While I worked for GAO, I earned a master’s degree accounting from DePaul; I passed the Certified Internal Auditor examination on my first attempt; I became a licensed CPA; I became a Certified Fraud Examiner, Certified Government Financial Manager, Certified Financial Services Manager, and Forensic Accountant; and I earned a master’s degree in financial markets and trading from IIT.)
http://www.nationalreview.com/article/444148/government-accountability-local-watchdogs-citizen-action-makes-big-difference
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The experience inspired Allen to co-found the Edgar County Watchdogs along with fellow Edgar County resident John Kraft, who was also frustrated with government officials. Since the small-town Illinoisans founded their group, they have forced out 185 public officials in the state, all of whom resigned or chose not to seek reelection. More impressive still, the pair has accomplished all of this without any funding, through the use of FOIA requests, pro se litigation, and comments at public government meetings. Due to their exemplary achievements, Allen and Kraft won the State Policy Network’s 2016 Unsung Hero Award, a cash prize of $25,000 that is sponsored by the Vernon K. Krieble Foundation. The award is part of the foundation’s citizenship program, “Lens of Liberty,” which encourages citizens to defend their rights and freedom.)

AMERICAN THINKER
— An idea for $60 billion per year in federal savings – Bob Fitzhenry  (DIERSEN: Does Fitzhenry approve or disapprove of the federal government’s wasting my career and forcing me to retire in 1997 when I was 49 years old?  Democrats and Democrat plants, Libertarians and Libertarian plants, Greens and Green plants, and RINOs HAVE NO PROBLEM WITH the federal government’s wasting my career and forcing me to retire in 1997 when I was 49 years old.)
http://www.americanthinker.com/blog/2017/01/an_idea_60_billion_per_year_in_federal_savings.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: I dusted off an old idea of mine because of President Trump’s freeze on federal hiring, his tasking to create an attrition plan, and a statistic I read yesterday in a Washington Post article by Juliet Eilperin.  Eilperin reported that in the federal workforce, “there are nearly three times as many employees over age 60 as under age 30.”  Yikes.  That’s no way to run a railroad. The idea I’d roughed out gave a way to cut back the federal workforce by tempting people to retire or move on earlier than they would otherwise.  Depending on whom I’d run the idea past, I’d hear that it’s fantasy, fantastic, or the best sense of fantastical. The cliché to address what I’d like to see happen is, “You’ve got to spend money to make money.”  What if we spent a bunch of money offering departure incentives high enough to entice 750,000 feds to resign or retire?  Then, how about filling one third of the vacated positions with veterans, graduates, and the un- and underemployed?  We’d be spending billions to save billions more every year, and to get 250,000 people into careers they and the country need them to have.)

January 23 Evening Edition

DAILY HERALD
— DuPage County Election Commission director Robert Saar retiring – Robert Sanchez
http://www.dailyherald.com/article/20170123/news/170129582/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Robert Saar, the longtime executive director of the DuPage County Election Commission, no longer is overseeing the day-to-day operation of the agency — and hasn’t been since mid-December. Election commissioners said Monday that Saar officially will retire March 14 but has not been in the office since Dec. 16, when he informed them about his plans to step down. He has been using accrued time off since then, they said, and has no plans to return to work. Joseph Sobecki, the commission’s assistant executive director, is serving in the agency’s top administrative role on an interim basis. “The election commission wishes Mr. Saar the best in his retirement,” said Cathy Ficker Terrill, chairwoman of the election commission board. Saar has been with the commission since 1981 and served as executive director since 1997. Pat Bond, the commission’s attorney, said retirement was on Saar’s “radar” in recent years. “As each election approaches, he doesn’t want to leave anybody in a lurch,” Bond said, “so he stuck around.” This year, the circumstances are different. Saar told commissioners about his retirement just days after DuPage officials announced a plan to ask state lawmakers to return election oversight power to the county clerk’s office by merging it with the election commission.)

NEW YORK TIMES
— Where Americans Still Stand Together  A year of photographs from parades on the nation’s streets, where communities become visible to themselves. – GEORGE GEORGIOU  (DIERSEN: What do you know about Wheaton’s Independence Day Parades? I have attended and/or participated in them since 1978 and I have raised money from Republicans each and every year for them since 2006.  I should write a book about the Democrats and Democrat plants, Libertarians and Libertarian plants, Greens and Green plants, and RINOs in Wheaton, in Glen Ellyn, in Milton Township, in DuPage County, and in Illinois a) who work against the parades and against patriotism, b) who work against Republican participation in the parades, and/or c) who work against my efforts to raise money from Republicans to support the parades. If their treatment of me at the Wheaton Chamber of Commerce January 19, 2017 State of the City Address is any indication, now that Trump is our President, they are dramatically increasing their efforts a) to harm the parade and patriotism, b) to discourage/stop Republican participation in the parade, and c) to discourage/stop Republicans from donating for the parade.  They are fully aware that I will raise $2,500 for the parade this year from Republicans, even if that means that I donate all of that $2,500.)

NEW YORK POST
— How these unemployed people survive in America – John Crudele  (DIERSEN: Are you unemployed?  If so, how do you get by? As a 68-year-old unemployed retired federal employee, I have received a dramatically reduced Civil Service Retirement System pension (currently $50,856 a year) since 1997.  In addition, I have received dramatically reduced Social Security (currently $2,028 a year) since 2010.)
http://nypost.com/2017/01/22/how-these-unemployed-people-survive-in-america/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Dear John: In a nutshell, I am getting by because I still have a good credit score (690, I believe). I am a 66-year-old retired civilian federal employee. I was able to retire when I was age 55 after 32 years of service and receive my full pension (currently about $3,600 net monthly). I retired to “pursue other interests,” as the cliche goes.)

THE BEAST
— DIERSEN HEADLINE: Anti-Trumps ask “Where Were All The Women’s March Protesters in November?” and say “It was huge. It was emotional. But it’s hard not to wonder what all these people were doing during the election, and what they will do after the protest has ended.”  What will the anti-Trump women in your precinct, in your municipality, in your township/ward, in your county, and in Illinois do to get rid of Trump and to get rid of Trumps’s supporters?
