CHICAGO TRIBUNE
— DIERSEN HEADLINE: Trump-hating Democrats run Illinois and especially Cook County and Chicago. Ever-increasingly, Trump-haters call those who do not hate Trump racists. Ever-increasingly, to call someone a racist in America today is like calling someone a Jew in Germany during the 1930s and 1940s. Those who hate Trump are consumed with hatred and want to get rid of those who do not hate Trump once and for all.

The Wheaton Police Department and City of Wheaton will continue to keep the community up-to-date. To receive updates, follow the City of Wheaton on Facebook and Twitter (@CityOfWheaton), or sign up to receive email updates ( www.wheaton.il.us/emailupdates ).)

https://www.thesun.co.uk/news/11259120/coronavirus-high-risk-obesity-old-diabetes-who-vulnerable/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: According to the Government website, people aged 70 or older, regardless of their health, are deemed as high risk. Those with chronic respiratory diseases, chronic heart disease, or people who are severely overweight or with a weakened immune system from conditions such as HIV and Aids are also on the list. Obesity has become a major issue as the fight against coronavirus has worn on as it exacerbates symptoms, making fighting the infection ten times harder for those with a BMI over 30 like the PM. New research has found that being obese doubles the risk of needing hospital treatment for coronavirus. It is also known to exacerbate other risk factors like diabetes and heart disease as well as putting excess weight on the diaphragm which makes breathing harder too. There is also a category deemed as extremely vulnerable. Those listed include people who have recently had an organ transplant, people with cancer who are undergoing active chemotherapy or radiotherapy and people with cancer of the bone. Using the Government website, we have pulled together both high risk and extremely vulnerable lists.)

— Republican voters give Trump and GOP governors cover to reopen A partisan divide over coronavirus has widened in POLITICO/Morning Consult polling over the past month, increasingly leaving Republican voters in the minority. – STEVEN SHEPARD (DIERSEN: From what I see in Illinois, in DuPage County, in Milton Township, in Wheaton, in Wheaton’s West District, and in my precinct, ever-increasingly, there are fewer and fewer and fewer members of the following groups: Trump supporters, Protestant, conservative, patriotic, Republican, American, White, male, older, non-poor, gun owners, German American, and those whose ancestors have been in America for a long time. Ever-increasingly, Democrats and Democrat plants, Libertarians and Libertarian plants, Greens and Green plants, and RINOs use that to dump those who are Trump supporters, Protestant, conservative, patriotic, Republican, American, White, male, older, non-poor, gun owners, German American, and those whose ancestors have been in America for a long time.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: NHGOP VIRTUAL CONVENTION. Like its counterpart across the political divide, the New Hampshire Republican Party is scheduled to hold a virtual state convention on May 9 to ratify four pro-Donald Trump activists nominated as electors and to adopt a party platform. The party said the convention will be held via Zoom. Trump campaign senior advisor Corey Lewandowski of Windham recently sent a letter to the delegates on behalf of the campaign asking that they consider him as an elector, along with Judy Baldasaro of Londonderry, Mary Ann Gargiulo of Hampton Falls and NHGOP Chair Steve Stepanek of Thornton. If the convention delegates ratify the nominees as expected, they would cast the state’s four electoral votes for Trump if the president wins the state in the November election. The party’s Platform Committee, meanwhile, voted unanimously to ask the convention to adopt the current party platform as is, with no changes, according to a letter by the committee chair, Chris Ager. “This is driven largely by the logistical difficulty in conducting a full and transparent debate” during the CODID-19 pandemic, Ager wrote. “We received over 40 suggestions from 30 Republicans. Our intention is to carry-over these suggestions into the next cycle for review.” One proposal placed on hold would remove from the party platform its recognition of marriage as only being between one man and one woman. Jim Morgan, a Derry town councilor, business executive and an openly gay married man, was sponsoring the proposal as the leader of the New Hampshire Log Cabin Republicans – the GOP’s largest pro-LGBT rights group. Morgan said Monday that the once it became clear that the convention could not be held in person, he, on behalf of the Log Cabin Republicans, suggested in a letter to party chair Stepanek that all proposed platform changes be put off until an in-person convention can be held and all proposals can be fully debated. “The ideas suggested in addressing our platform require Republicans to be in an objective, open and focused frame of mind,” Morgan wrote in the letter. “This pandemic creates challenges that require the absolute unity of this party.”)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: What is Recessionary Discrimination? It is an unfortunate reality that during a downturn, companies sometimes choose which employees to fire and lay off for reasons that are not only illegitimate but may even be unlawful. During the financial crisis of 2008, the term “recessionary discrimination” was developed to describe situations where employers use poor economic conditions to conceal their discriminatory decision-making while conducting layoffs or reductions in force.)
