CHICAGO TRIBUNE
— FRONT PAGE TOP OF FOLD: Pritzker, never shy about criticizing Republicans, calls for ‘common ground’ at national conference – Rick Pearson and Jeremy Gorner (COMMENT: RINO leaders have more in common with Democrats than with conservatives. RINO leaders reject the individual responsibility, traditional marriage and family, right to life, immigration, illegal drugs, Second Amendment, and/or equal opportunity (no race of gender based preference giving) planks in the Republican Party platform. I should write a book about the biggest RINO leaders in Illinois, Milton Township, and Wheaton since 2000. I would focus on those who have taken the most/biggest adverse actions against me. In 2021, RINO leaders in DuPage County, Milton Township, and Wheaton rallied together and ended my role as the Republican fundraiser for Wheaton Independence Day parades and fireworks; a role that I had since 2005.)

— Chicago faces a critical moment in its affordable housing crisis. It needs more federal funding. – Tracey Scott (COMMENT: What helped you afford housing? For me, it was my working for Firestone Stores 1970-1972, for IRS 1971-1980, and for GAO 1980-1997. For my wife, it was her working for the U.S. League of Savings Institutions 1970-1992. My Democrat IRS superiors, supervisors, coworkers, and subordinates were furious a) that I could afford to buy a new town home in University Park in 1972 when I was 24 years old, a studio condo in downtown Chicago in 1974, and a one bedroom condo in downtown Chicago in 1976 and b) that my wife and I could afford to buy 1017 East Harrison in Wheaton ( https://www.redfin.com/IL/Wheaton/1017-E-Harrison-Ave-60187/home/18135528 ) in 1978. My Democrat GAO superiors, supervisors, coworkers, and subordinates were furious that my wife and I could afford to have 915 Cove Court built in Wheaton ( https://www.redfin.com/IL/Wheaton/915-Cove-Ct-60189/home/18126600 ) in 1984. My Democrat superiors, supervisors, coworkers, and subordinates always a) painted themselves as being grossly underpaid and b) demonized me, denigrated me, and condemned me as being grossly overpaid.)

— City fumbles on migrant issue again with bid to put tent camp in Brighton Park. Of all places, the city picks a site that once contained a zinc smelting operation — a process that can potentially leach toxins into the soil. It’s another example of blunders on handling Chicago’s migrant crisis. – Editorial (COMMENT: Will the Democrats who run Chicago Heights put an migrant tent camp on the Stauffler Chemical Plant Superfund Site at 111th & Arnold Street on the east side of Chicago Heights? SEE: https://cumulis.epa.gov/supercpad/CurSites/calinfo.cfm?id=0500156 My father worked in the office of that plant from 1941 until he died suddenly in 1969 when he was 47 and I was 21.)

— Democrats have an antisemitism problem on the far left. Just as Donald Trump exposed a dark and ugly underbelly of the far right, the Hamas attacks have exposed a dark and ugly underbelly on the far left, S.E. Cupp writes. – S. E. Cupp (COMMENT: Many of my Chicago office Democrat GAO superiors, supervisors, coworkers, and subordinates acted like they were anti-Semites. They acted like they did not want to supervise, work with, and/or work for Jews. Because I am conservative, Republican, White, and male, they were beyond dumbfounded when in 1989, when I was 41 years old, volunteered to work for the office’s highest profile Jewish employee, a liberal Democrat female GS-15 (currently $152,527-$183,500/year). She managed the office’s audits of federal financial industry regulators. Beyond being Jewish, they did not want to supervise, work with, or work for her because she put them to shame because she had earned an MBA from the University of Chicago and she had passed the CPA examination on her first attempt. On top of that, she was very demanding, young, attractive, and wealthy. Because I had earned an MBA from Loyola in 1976, passed the CPA examination on my first attempt in 1979, earned a master’s degree in accounting from DePaul in 1980, and passed the Certified Internal Auditor Examination on my first attempt and became a licensed CPA in 1981, I was not intimidated by her many accomplishments. But they believed that she had been unfairly promoted over them because of her demographics. They were further dumbfounded when I got her appointed to serve on the board of directors of IIT’s graduate financial markets and trading program in 1992. While I worked for her, a) I became a Certified Fraud Examiner in 1990, Certified Government Financial Manager in 1994, Certified Financial Services Auditor in 1996, and Forensic Accountant in 1997 and b) completed 16 graduate evening courses and earned a master’s degree in financial markets and trading from IIT in 1997. Nevertheless, my other two Chicago office Democrat GAO superiors, both of whom were Jewish (one a Senior Executive Service member, currently $183,500/year, and the other a GS-15 male) succeeded in forcing her a) to play a very big role in forcing me to take their early retirement “offer” in 1997 when I was 49 years old and b) to give my job and my preferred corner office to my Black subordinate.)

https://www.thecentersquare.com/illinois/article_1ddd6e46-737e-11ee-89d9-73b7b802bd68.html

POLITICO ILLINOIS
— The governor said bringing people together is possible when government helps people succeed. “It actually brings people together if you can make it easier for people to raise their family, save for retirement, send their kids to college, buy a house. If we can make it just a little bit easier for people, I think that brings the temperature down.” The one issue that will always divide: Abortion rights, Pritzker said. “We’re just not going to come together” on that, he said. Pritzker’s kumbaya “didn’t last long,” reports the Tribune’s Rick Pearson and Jeremy Gorner. Soon after his remarks, the Democratic Governors Association sent out a fundraising email from Pritzker in which he wrote: “GOP radicals are working night and day to enact an extremist Republican agenda” to curb abortion, LGBTQ+ and voting rights, fighting gun safety and pushing discrimination and book bans.”

I did yard work 1962-1964, delivered newspapers 1962-1966, washed dishes 1964-1966, cleaned golf shoes, chipped slag, and pumped gasoline in 1966, and delivered mail 1966-1969. My critics/opponents have always made it very clear that they would never have stooped to take the aforesaid bad jobs. Further, they have always hinted/implied/argued/shouted that I had to take the aforesaid bad jobs because I have always been an unmitigated loser. They stress that I only just barely made it into the upper 20% of my high school class and my ACT score was only 24. I should write a book about my critics/opponents. I would focus on how much money their parents had/have.)

CHICAGO CONTRARIAN
— Stay or Go: Chicago’s Jewish Community Has a Choice to Make – BENJAMIN BLAIR
https://www.chicagocontrarian.com/blog/chicago-jewish-community-has-choice-to-make
(FROM THE ARTICLE: With rising anti-Semitism in the Windy City, does the urban equation still add up for the 85,000 Jews in Chicago? Roughly two percent of the world’s Jewish community resides in the greater Chicago area. According to a recent Brandeis study of the Chicagoland Jewish community, in 2020, there were 319,600 Jewish adults and children spread across 175,800 households in Chicago and its suburbs. Chicago’s Jewish population count was 85,000 at the time of the study. Chicago Jews are a diverse bunch. Some are observant, following as many of the 613 mitzvot (which comprise “doing good deeds” or “avoiding bad deeds”) as possible, including putting on Tefillin, observing shabbat and the holidays/festivals, and saying prayers daily. Others worship themselves, including Zen and the art of vaginoplasty. By the numbers, Chicago’s Jewish community was seven percent Orthodox (i.e., observant) in 2020 (the same as 2010). Conservative Jews, who generally believe they are fully observant with a few caveats, although the Orthodox would disagree, made up 16 percent of the population (down from 30 percent in 2010). Reform Jews (the Unitarians of the Jewish world) came in at 29 percent (down from 45 percent). Somewhat shockingly, 44 percent of the Jewish community had “no denomination” in 2020 (up from 14 percent in 2010). But the politics of Chicago’s Jewish community should surprise no one: 16 percent volunteer themselves as “extremely liberal”; 36 percent clock in as liberal; 18 percent are moderate; six percent are slightly conservative; 10 percent are conservative; and 2 percent are extremely conservative. In short: Most Chicago Jews don’t agree on much, but they tilt far to the political “left” outside the Orthodox community. In fact, many of Barack Obama’s biggest fanboys (inside baseball note: Who were generally responsible for driving his rise to fame even before his run for the White House) came from Chicago’s Jewish community – think the Pritzker family, for one.)

I would focus on the many big adverse actions that they took against me to get rid of me including forcing me to take their early retirement “offer” in 1997 when I was 49 years old a) because I was all of the aforesaid, b) because I complained about political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, and age discrimination, c) because I became an active member in a class action lawsuit in 1988 when I was 40 years old that charged them with reverse discrimination, age discrimination, and retaliation, and c) because I had been a union member while I worked for IRS 1971-1980 and for the Post Office 1966-1969.)

He died suddenly in October of 1969 when he tried to lift a heavy speaker at the Blue Note Tap in Momence. My grandfather, my great grandfather, and my great great grandfather on my father’s side all had less money because they paid to send their children to Trinity Lutheran Grade School in Crete.)

AMERICAN THINKER
— Illegal aliens are rational investors – Andrew Hodge
https://www.americanthinker.com/blog/2023/10/illegal_aliens_are_rational_investors.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Migrants coming to the USA right now have to make a significant investment. There is a monetary investment in the form of payment given to the Mexican drug cartels to shepherd them to and across the border. Many migrants take flights from their home countries to Central or South America and then trek north. Flights costs money, which increases their investment after payments to the cartels. Often this also involves future payments earned as the result of working in this country, legally or not. These payments may be monetary or in the form of indentured labor. There are other forms of investment as well. Primary among them is human capital. Hiking from Central or South America to the U.S. border is not easy. It involves many weeks of time; many miles of walking; and risk of physical danger from snakes, terrain, and weather along the way. You have to sleep outside a lot, access to food is uncertain, and one has to negotiate the Rio Grande and the desert. We know that many are lost in transit. On top of that, there is the real risk of mistreatment by the cartels. Many, many adult and adolescent female migrants are sexually abused on their journey here. Children of both sexes are often abused as well. Once in the USA, they are often trafficked. Men and women are forced into indentured servitude by the cartels in different forms, some involving drug-dealing. The women are placed in brothels, displaying their wares on the streets of American cities. Think of the psychological and physical scars accrued by these people. That is a real cost that represents a very significant personal investment.)

Smith (COMMEMT: Virtually all my superiors and supervisors while I worked for the Post Office 1966-1969, IRS 1971-1980, and GAO 1980-1997 were Democrats. I should write a book about those who were the most anti-conservative, anti-Republican, anti-White, anti-male, anti-older people, anti-draft avoiders, anti-Protestant, anti-German American, and/or anti-those whose ancestors have been in America for a long time. I would focus on those who took the most/biggest adverse actions against me. I would focus on those who forced me to take their early retirement “offer” in 1997 when I was 49 years old.)

GOVERNING
— Volunteers Help Migrants Find Permanent Housing in Chicago. It’s the only sanctuary city that has pointed to resettlement as the primary solution to put migrants on a path to self-sufficiency. But there are not enough case managers or landlords willing or able to rent to keep up with demand. – Laura Rodríguez Presa, Lizzie Kane and Nell Salzman (COMMENT: Chicago Democrats ever-increasing promote more illegal immigration. Anticipate/expect that Chicago Democrats will ever-increasingly send more illegals to DuPage County, to Milton Township, and to Wheaton to destroy DuPage County, Milton Township, and Wheaton. The only thing that might slow them down is opposition from the ever-increasing number of rich wealthy limousine liberal Democrats, Libertarians, Greens, Independents, and RINOs who have invaded and taken over parts of DuPage County, Milton Township, and Wheaton.

Constructively, that rendered worthless a) my job-related bachelor’s degree, b) my three job-related master’s degrees, c) my six job-related professional certifications, d) my job-related professional license, and e) my job-related work experience.)

https://www.politico.com/newsletters/illinois-playbook/2023/10/23/whats-off-the-table-in-springfield-00122973
(FROM THE ARTICLE: RESOLUTION REPOSE: State lawmakers aren’t expected to vote on any resolutions related to the Middle East during the veto session that starts this week. Taking a position: Illinois House Speaker Emanuel “Chris” Welch and Senate President Don Harmon, both Democrats, are taking the view that state lawmakers should focus on state issues — not what’s happening in another part of the world. Critics, of course, say silence speaks louder than words. Behind the scenes: Welch and Harmon have privately indicated to lawmakers they won’t call any resolutions on the issue. They know that allowing a pro-Israel resolution to pop up would prompt a pro-Palestinian resolution to follow, and vice versa, which could create party chaos as Democrats are split on the issue. The logic: Harmon and Welch want to avoid a repeat of what happened in the Chicago City Council earlier this month that saw rowdy members of the public kicked out of the chambers and aldermen leaving the building in order to avoid going on the record on a resolution supporting Israel. Not to be deterred: Republican Rep. Brad Halbrook and Senate Minority Leader Tony McCombie have offered up resolutions condemning the deadly Hamas attacks on Israel. But with Democrats in charge, those measures aren’t likely to see the light of day.)

— To keep their jobs and to get promoted, my Democrat superiors, supervisors, coworkers, and subordinates in the federal government focused on destroying their superiors, supervisors, coworkers, and subordinates, and especially those who were conservative, Republican, White, male, older, non-veteran, Protestant, German American, and/or had ancestors who had been in America for a long time. By way of dramatic contrast, to keep my job and to get promoted, I focused on a) doing my job, b) maintaining and improving my job skills by earning job-related college degrees, professional certifications, and a professional license, and c) being active in job-related professional associations. I earned job-related college degrees when I was 21, 27, 31, and 48. I earned job-related professional certifications when I was 30, 32, 41, 45, 47, and 48. I earned a job-related professional license when I was 32. I was very active in a job-related professional association while was 34-47.

I did yard work 1962-1964, delivered newspapers 1962-1966, washed dishes 1964-1966, cleaned golf shoes, chipped slag, and pumped gasoline in 1966, delivered mail 1966-1969, worked on an automobile assembly line in 1970, sold tires, automotive services, and major appliances 1970-1971, pumped gasoline 1971-1972, collected delinquent taxes 1971-1980, and audited federal agencies 1980-1997. Anticipate/expect that your critics/opponents will hint/imply/argue/shout a) that all the jobs that you had were bad jobs, b) that you did not get better jobs because of you had many serious faults and shortcomings, c) that you were nevertheless grossly overpaid, and d) that they would never stoop to take the jobs that you took. I should write a book about my critics/opponents. I would focus on the jobs that they had, how they got those jobs, and why they got those jobs. From what I see, the wealthier that your parents are, the better the jobs that you can get. My father worked in the office of a nasty chemical plant and never earned more than $50,000/year in today’s dollars, almost always worked second jobs (playing the piano, delivering eggs, working in an A&W) to pay the family’s bills, and died suddenly in 1969 when he was 47 and I was 21. My mother never attended high school and did not work outside the home until after he died.

Quinn (COMMENT: Based on the many big adverse actions that anti-conservative leaders of the Milton Township Republican Organization, DuPage County Republican Central Committee, and Illinois Republican Party have taken against me since 2000, it is obvious that they would never have appointed me to be a Republican Precinct Committeeman.

(FROM THE ARTICLE: A Highland councilman is expected to be stripped of his precinct committee position after publicly endorsing the town’s Democratic Clerk-Treasurer candidate in the upcoming general election. Lake County Republican Chairman and Congressional candidate Randy Niemeyer confirmed Wednesday that he’ll be removing Highland Councilman Mark Schocke, R-3, from the precinct committee after Schocke appeared in a campaign mailer endorsing current Highland Clerk-Treasurer Mark Herak. Herak is running against Republican Kathy Camp-Burke. Because Schocke was appointed to the precinct, he can be removed at the County Chair’s discretion and not go through a hearing process as an elected committeeman would, Niemeyer said. He said he hadn’t executed the order as of Wednesday afternoon, but only because he hadn’t had the chance. Niemeyer said his decision to remove Schocke isn’t personal; it’s just that he has a party to protect.)

https://www.dailyherald.com/discuss/20231021/it-may-be-that-the-only-solution-to-house-chaos-is-true-cooperation-between-parties
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Eight Republicans forced the current crisis in the House when they engineered the ouster of former Speaker Kevin McCarthy on Oct. 5. But Democrats, remember, are not blameless. Any reasonably informed observer could have foreseen that when a small cabal of extremists managed to depose their party’s leader with no plan for a successor and no likely option waiting in the wings, trouble lurked for the entire body. The GOP chaos may have provided a few temporary partisan chuckles for Democrats, not one of whom lifted a finger to try to rescue McCarthy, but the situation facing the country now is not at all funny.)

— A Migrant Windfall: Nine Grand Each for Housing in Chicago. Biden demands loans and credit cards for illegals – so much for sustainable. – Joe Schaeffer
https://www.libertynation.com/a-migrant-windfall-nine-grand-each-for-housing-in-chicago/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: As Americans struggle mightily to cope with the buckling effects of inflation on food, gasoline, and other necessities, the benefits for illegal migrant newcomers keep piling up. The state of Illinois is funding temporary housing for migrants, providing up to $9,000 in rental assistance over six months. How many Americans could use a $9,000 housing stipend right about now? “That rent lasts for six months and ideally people would have started their legal process, secured legal work authorization and be able to sustain that apartment. And so the cost, or I guess the payment toward the landlord is based on market rate, it’s based on the configuration of the parament – how many rooms, where it’s located – all those things. And so it varies from place to place,” Cristina Pacione-Zayas, chief of staff to Democrat Mayor Brandon Johnson, told the Chicago’s Fox 32 TV station October 13. As is so often the case, Democrat notions of the “ideal” results of their feckless policies are failing to materialize. In New York City, where illegal migrants have become a crushing burden on the blue-run government, the new arrivals are simply not working. . .Chicago Democrats are starting to realize that their empty platitudes about welcoming the world to America are unaffordable, something any responsible adult should have realized from the beginning.)

But in today’s dollars, my CSRS pension is only 44% of what my GAO salary was in 1997 and less than what my IRS salary was in 1972.

— Flooded basements are becoming more common in Chicago. Here’s what you (and city officials) can do. When big storms hit, basements fill with stormwater and sewage. But there are steps, big and small, that could help keep Chicago above water. – Jessica Pupovac (COMMENT: I should write a book about the many thousands of dollars and the many hundreds of hours that I have had to spend since 1984 to stop basement and lot flooding a) because Wheaton approved a subdivision lot drainage plan that was woefully inadequate and b) because Wheaton allowed many serious construction/building code violations. Wheaton and developer/builder should have but did not disclose to potential lot buyers that the subdivision was constructed on a watershed area and former septic field that was cris-crossed with subterranean drainage lines. Further, Wheaton allowed construction of 928 Golf Lane uphill ( https://www.redfin.com/IL/Wheaton/928-Golf-Ln-60189/home/18126604 ) and that dramatically increased stormwater runoff problems for the subdivision and especially for my lot.)

The Republican Party fails because it lets its leaders to not only reject planks in its platform, but to destroy leaders who support those planks.

https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/restoring-america/fairness-justice/student-with-1590-sat-score-rejected-by-16-colleges
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Zhong’s story has begun to gather some media attention, which was the subject of discussion at a recent House Committee on Education and the Workforce hearing. Yet almost all of the stories failed to mention the likely reason Zhong was rejected: He’s Asian. For years, colleges have been quietly discriminating against Asians in the admission process, admitting white, black, and Latino students with lower SAT scores and lower GPAs in the name of inclusivity. The problem for Asians is that, as a group, they tend to score really well. This means there’s an abundance of highly qualified Asians applying to universities each year. This would not be a problem for Asian students if not for race-conscious universities, which, in recent years, have demonstrated a preference for social equity and racial balance over merit. As a result, untold numbers of Asians have found themselves excluded from universities simply because of their race.)

— IN WHAT SENSE ARE ILLEGALS ILLEGAL? – JOHN HINDERAKER (COMMENT: Of course, illegals do/will use their false identifications to vote for Democrats. Soon, if not already, Democrats and RINOs will have brought in enough illegals that no Republican will ever be elected again.)
https://www.powerlineblog.com/archives/2023/10/in-what-sense-are-illegals-illegal.php
(FROM THE ARTICLE: So there isn’t much left of the illegality that comes with sneaking across the southern border. The Biden administration, with help from blue states, has effectively rewritten–or, more accurately, repealed–the nation’s immigration laws. They had no legal power to do this. Congress never voted to abolish our immigration laws, nor would it. The acceptance of illegal immigration is opposed by an overwhelming majority of Americans, but we never had a chance to vote on it. This is perhaps the clearest indication of the fact that the cabal that controls America has zero regard for democracy, for democratic processes, or for the views of most Americans.)

https://townhall.com/columnists/jimrosslightfoot/2023/10/17/seven-new-states-n2629934
(FROM THE ARTICLE: According to the United States Census Bureau, the most significant number floating around is 6,777,807. That represents the number of illegals who have entered our country since 2020. They came from around the world and flowed across our Texas – Mexico border. With them came pounds and pounds of drugs, millions of fentanyl pills, and we do not know how many Cartel members, murderers, child sex offenders, and others with criminal intent on their minds. As well, our Canadian border has been hemorrhaging. We do not see much about it on the news for some reason. 6,770,807. It is a huge number that is difficult for most of us to comprehend. Let us strive to put the 6.7 million amount into comparative numbers with something easy to understand. First, do a little research and find out the population of some of our smallest states. Those with populations under 1 million people are Wyoming, Vermont, the District of Columbia, Alaska, North Dakota, and South Dakota. Wyoming has the smallest population of 576,837, and Delaware is the largest among those with under 1 million people, with 989,957.)

NATION
— As Democrats ever-increasingly run America and give more and more and more employment preference to women, fewer and fewer and fewer men get college degrees. The Democrats who ran GAO in 1980 hired me because they could not find a qualified woman who would take the job. The Democrats who ran IRS in 1971 hired me because they could not find a qualified woman who would take the job. The Democrats who ran Firestone Stores 1970 hired me because they could not find a qualified woman who would take the job. The Democrats who ran the Post Office in 1966 hired me because they could not find a qualified woman who would take the job. My critics/opponents reject the equal opportunity (no race or gender based preference giving) plank in the Republican Party platform. I should write a book about them.

I should write a book about them.

October 13, 2023

Democrat leaders ever-increasingly bring illegals into America because Illegals vote for Democrats. However, everything is a zero-sum-game. To give preference to one group is to discriminate against another group. Democrat elected officials ever-increasingly give more and more and more preference to illegals, that is, to the citizens of foreign countries who they brought in. Consequently, Democrat elected officials ever-increasingly discriminate against citizens of America. Overwhelmingly, those citizens of America are Democrats who are poor, minority, female, and/or younger.

— Democrats acknowledge that IRS acknowledges that “Gap between U.S. income taxes owed and paid is set to keep growing.” GAO audits IRS. The Democrats who ran IRS and GAO intentionally wasted my knowledge of IRS. I worked for IRS for almost 9 years, the last 5 1/2 years of which at the GS-12 Step 1-5 Levels, currently $92,279-$104,583/year. I worked for GAO for almost 18 years, the last 11 years of which at the GS-13 Step 1-10 Levels, currently $109,732-$142,650/year. The Democrats who ran GAO kept me off of audits for all but 3 of those 18 years. During those 3 years, I worked on audits of what IRS’s Criminal Investigation Division did to close the tax gap. Further, after the Democrats who ran GAO forced me to take early retirement, Republican U.S. Senators and Representatives in Illinois, their staffs, and candidates for those offices further wasted my knowledge of IRS.

I earned a bachelor’s degree, three masters degrees, six professional certifications, and a professional license.

https://ibendahlonpolitics.com/2023/09/30/trump-republicans-must-take-the-reins-of-the-illinois-gop/
(IBENDAHL UPDATE: A big thank you to everyone who already emailed me saying they wanted to be added to the list of Republicans who want a direct vote & a voice again in their Illinois Republican Party. It’s heartwarming to see so many standing up for their fellow Republicans. You folks truly get it. . .We’re still collecting names, so just let me know if you would like to be added to the growing list of supporters. We’re going to publish the list of supporters soon. We’re also going to publish the list of opponents–which I’m delighted to say is a very short list right now. Actually that’s not surprising. Anyone who actually cares about our Republican Party, as opposed to just their own selfish interest, does not have a problem with the idea of Republicans voting in their own party–just like we used to when Illinois was still a Red State. And yet there is a tiny handful, but those few names won’t surprise you. Thank you again, and just let me know if you have any questions. Also, your help in spreading the word would be greatly appreciated. We invite any and all Republicans in Illinois to stand up and proudly lend her or his name to a long past-due reform. When some selfish old GOP bosses took our vote away years ago, THAT was the radical & inexplicable change. All we’re talking about now is restoring some common sense & professionalism to the Illinois Republican Party. It’s a major first step towards becoming something other than a perpetually losing party in Illinois.)

https://www.wsj.com/politics/policy/steve-scalise-struggles-to-build-support-for-house-speaker-post-99be48e6
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The number of Scalise opponents was thought to stretch to as many as 20 members, beyond the dozen or so who had publicly rejected him. Those holdouts include Rep. Lauren Boebert of Colorado and Max Miller of Ohio. Disgraced New York Congressman George Santos, who faces federal fraud charges, also said he would oppose Scalise, saying the lawmaker had ignored him. Santos has denied wrongdoing. Many of the holdouts said they viewed electing Scalise as simply extending the status quo, while others have specific objections tied to strategy around spending bills or the process used to conduct the speaker election. Former President Donald Trump, who had endorsed Jordan in the GOP contest, said he would back whomever the party unites behind, while also pointing to health worries about Scalise. “I’m going to be with anybody they pick,” he said on Fox News Radio. “The one thing with Steve, he’s got to get well…he’s got to get strong.”)

ILLINOIS PLAYBOOK
— Democrats say “Pritzker tackles touchy issue of age.” It is OK to stress someone’s mental/physical problems/shortcomings/failings, but it is not OK to stress someone’s age. After I turned 25 years old in 1973, because my Democrat IRS superiors had not promoted me to GS-13 (currently $109,732/year) by that age, they stressed my age to justify never promoting me to GS-13. To justify that, they ignored/dismissed the fact that a) I had made GS-12 in 1974, GS-11 in 1973, and GS-9 in 1972, b) that I had earned an MBA from Loyola in 1976, c) that I had passed the CPA examination on my first attempt in 1979, and c) that I had earned a master’s degree in accounting from DePaul in 1980. If I had been a Democrat, minority, female, and/or veteran, my Democrat IRS superiors would not have subjected me to the aforesaid up-or-out type age discrimination.
