(FROM THE ARTICLE: President Donald Trump insisted more than once the “Resistance” movement that attempted to stop his presidency was really attacking American voters who put him in the White House, and now the Kristallnacht-like Resistance has proven him right. Bolstered by Joe Biden’s expected win over Trump, the so-called Resistance movement of Democrats and “Never Trump” Republicans is blatantly calling for Trump supporters to be punished if they voted for him and put out a yard sign, cheered for him and defended his policies, or served in his administration. “Shunning, shaming these people is a statement of moral indignation,” Jennifer Rubin, the Washington Post columnist, suggested on MSNBC over the weekend, “that these people are not fit for polite society.” Rubin made those comments (see video below) after reminding the cable news network she had cheered when then-press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders was run out of a Washington, D.C. restaurant. That incident dates back to 2018 and it appears Rubin, the Post’s supposedly conservative reporter, has no regrets about punishing political enemies two years later. “It’s not only that Trump has to lose,” she further stated, “but that all his enablers have to lose.” From ‘reconciliation’ to ‘accountability’ Even before Election Day, Berkeley economics professor Robert Reich raised eyebrows when he suggested via Twitter there should be a “Truth and Reconciliation Commission” if Trump loses re-election. What would such a commission do? “It would erase Trump’s lies, comfort those who have been harmed by his hatefulness,” he wrote, “and name every official, politician, executive, and media mogul whose greed and cowardice enabled this catastrophe.” When fellow Twitter users pushed back on the suggestion, Reich, who served as labor secretary for Bill Clinton, scoffed at warnings his idea was “undemocratic.” Then came Election Day. Democrats not only celebrated a projected win for Joe Biden but predicted an angry, crying Donald Trump would be marched out of the White House and his Hitler-endorsing, white supremacist minions should be punished, too. But there needs to be a record, right? The history of despotic regimes has shown The Right Thinkers have to take names, and document wrongdoing, in order to punish The Wrong Thinkers. One self-described revolutionary who was thinking ahead was Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, the socialist lawmaker. She asked via Twitter is anyone was “archiving these Trump sycophants for when they try to downplay or deny their complicity in the future.” Yes, infact, some people were doing just that. Just three days after Election Day, the Trump Accountability Project was born with the motto, “Remember what they did.” The group, founded by staffers associated with Pete Buttigieg, vowed to “not allow the following groups of people profit from their experience: Those who elected him. Those who staffed his government. Those who funded him.” CNN: No more ‘Kristallnacht’ Following on the heels of vows to punish Trump and his supporters, CNN reminded its viewers this week that Nov. 9 marked the anniversary of Kristallnacht, the “Night of Broken Glass” in 1938. On that night, Nazi Party members torched Jewish homes and schools, vandalized synagogues, and arrested approximately 30,000 Jews and marched them off to concentration camps. Another 100 Jews were killed. The horrors or Kristallnacht, CNN’s anchor Christiane Amanpour opined, included an attack on “facts, knowledge, history and truth” when the Nazis tossed thousands of books into the fire. “After four years of a modern-day assault on those same values by Donald Trump,” Amanpour summarized, “the Biden-Harris team pledges a return to normal.” For supporters of Donald Trump, who are not Nazis and don’t know one, the obvious question is: What in the world is going on? According to psychiatrist Dr. Karl Benzio, it boils down to emotions detached from reality, which Trump supporters have named Trump Derangement Syndrome for the bizarre, unhinged behavior of the Left. “The definition of psychosis is when somebody isn’t able differentiate reality from non-reality,” Dr. Benzio tells OneNewsNow. “The definition of delusion is a fixed, false belief.” A human being’s emotional volume is always competing with our rational volume, Dr. Benzio says, like when a rabid sports fan reacts angrily when their beloved team fails to reach the end zone or, worse, loses the game and the grief-stricken fan fails to cope with the loss. In the case of President Trump, he is the opposing team that “stole” the game from the home team — then dances in the end zone to rub it in. When the trolling, counter-punching commander in chief posts a sarcastic tweet, or drops a new nickname for a politician beloved by Democrats, Benzio says, it only makes his enemies angrier. And now those angry enemies, who likely won the game on Election Day, are plotting revenge.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: Yet despite a note in most of their “about” pages promising “to provide objective, data-driven information without political bias,” they aren’t really offering reporting. They’re offering propaganda. A mishmash of conservative political operatives, public relations professionals and think tanks act as “clients” for the sites, paying freelancers to prop up Republican candidates and knock down Democratic competitors. The writers don’t adopt traditional best practices such as, say, calling Democratic U.S. Senate nominee Sara Gideon of Maine for comment when accusing her of being a hypocrite. Sometimes they’re even instructed on precisely what to say by an article’s subject.)

Employers, including GAO, IRS, Firestone Stores, and Post Office, have always known that their hiring me, their retaining me, and their promoting me would not help them meet their Affirmative Action (AA), Diversity, or Inclusion quotas, goals, or targets. Organizations, including the Milton Township Republican Organization (MTRO), DuPage County Republican Central Committee, Illinois Republican Party, TAPROOT Republicans of Illinois, Wheaton Chamber of Commerce (WCC), Illinois Center Right Coalition (ICRC), and American Association of Political Consultants (AAPC) Midwest Chapter (MC), have always known that their giving me leadership positions would not help them meet their AA, Diversity, or Inclusion quotas, goals, or targets.

POLITICO ILLINOIS
— DIERSEN HEADLINE: Shia Kapos jabs Esther Joy King. I have lived in Illinois since 1948 and in DuPage County, Milton Township, and Wheaton since 1978. My website is at www.gopillinois.com .)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: She doesn’t really mention living in Texas and Chicago before moving to the district, which lines the state’s northwest border with Iowa, a point Bustos seizes on in her latest ad: “Who is the real Esther Joy King? She just moved from Chicago to run for Congress.” Before running for office, King headed a social media marketing company called 364.Social, a company we couldn’t find online. King says that’s because it was folded into another marketing firm that she helped start: GRP21, which also has next-to-no presence online. A few years ago, King also billed herself as founder of Flashbulb Media — another company that appears to be non-existent. King doesn’t mention those companies on her LinkedIn page — she said she just chose not to — and didn’t supply any information about them. She told Playbook she “no longer has any ownership interest” in Flashbulb or GRP21.)
— DIERSEN HEADLINE: Shia Kapos jabs Brian Timpone. (DIERSEN: He who pays the piper calls the tunes. No one pays me. No one calls my tunes. However, my critics/opponents can and do punish me.

(FROM THE ARTICLE: NEWS FAKERY EXCLUSIVE: As local news dies, a pay-for-play network rises in its place — and its roots are in Illinois: The New York Times exposes Chicago-area businessman Brian Timpone’s media empire running websites across the country and in Illinois, including the “North Cook News,” which appear as news sites. In fact, the Times says Republican operatives pay Timpone’s company to order up stories they dictate to reporters. Jeanne Ives has paid Timpone $55,000 and received favorable stories in return, according to the Times. When asked if she had paid companies for pay-for-play news stories, she said: “Oh, no, there’s none of that going on. I assure you. Oh, my gosh, no. Oh, no, not at all.” Also linked to Timpone’s companies: conservative talk show host Dan Proft and John Tillman, an activist who once led the Illinois Opportunity Project and who is connected to groups that have paid “hundreds of thousands of dollars” to underwrite Timpone’s “news” operation. … How it works: “Editors for Mr. Timpone’s network assign work to freelancers dotted around the United States and abroad, often paying $3 to $36 per job. The assignments typically come with precise instructions on whom to interview and what to write, according to the internal correspondence. In some cases, those instructions are written by the network’s clients, who are sometimes the subjects of the articles.”)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: Jeanne Ives, a Republican candidate for the U.S. House in Illinois, has had a direct financial relationship with the operation. Ms. Ives has paid Mr. Timpone’s companies $55,000 over the past three years, according to state and federal records. During that time, the Illinois sites have published overwhelmingly positive coverage of her, including running some of her news releases verbatim. In an interview, she said her payments were to create her website and monitor her Wikipedia page. One $14,342 payment included the note “Advertising-newspaper.” Ms. Ives initially could not explain why. She later called back to say Mr. Timpone had bought Facebook ads for her. Asked if she was paying for positive coverage, she replied: “Oh, no, there’s none of that going on. I assure you. Oh, my gosh, no. Oh, no, not at all.” Ms. Ives is listed as a “story watcher.” She said she did not know why.)

I should write a book about them. Better yet, I should sue them. I would focus on those in Wheaton, in Milton Township, and in DuPage County who have had little or no interaction with Blacks. While I worked for the federal government for almost 30 years, many of my coworkers and subordinates were Black. I worked in Chicago Heights 1964-1966 and 1970-1972, in Park Forest 1966-1969, in Harvey 1972-1973, at 63rd and Halsted in Chicago in 1973, and in Joliet 1973-1974. I bought a new town home in University Park in 1972, lived in it full-time 1972-1974, lived in it part-time 1974-1976 and rented it out 1976-1984.)
