Daley and parents’ cousin Ald. Patrick D. Thompson (11th) for racist policymaking. – Clare Proctor and Tom Schuba (DIERSEN: Government is nasty. Politics is nasty. Ever-increasingly, to pander to minorities, to pander to women, to pander to young people, and to pander to those who have health, financial, and/or other problems, if you are White, and if you seek a government office or a political office, your critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes will paint you, paint your parents, paint your grandparents, paint your great grandparents, and paint the rest of your ancestors as being White supremacists, Nazis, KKK members, haters, racists, sexists, bigots, and even worse things. The more clout that the aforesaid have/had, the more that they are painted as being the aforesaid. In my defense, I have never had clout. Further, my parents, my grandparents, my great grandparents, and the rest of my ancestors never had clout. My outstanding father fought diabetes from age 14, never attended college, was the first of his ancestors to earn a high school diploma, worked in the office of a nasty chemical plant in Chicago Heights, almost always worked second jobs to pay the family’s bills, and died in 1969 when he was 47 and I was 21. My outstanding mother never attended high school. My grandparents on my father’s side operated a hardware store in Crete; their parents were farmers. My grandparents on my mother’s side operated a farm in Grant Park; their parents were farmers.)

POLITICO ILLINOIS
— LaHOOD’s NOD TO BIDEN. . .REP. DARIN LAHOOD says Joe Biden should be receiving security briefings, a sign he acknowledges the Democrat won the 2020 election. “It is appropriate from a national security perspective for Joe Biden to be afforded access to intelligence and security briefings,” the Republican congressman told Playbook through a spokesman. LaHood’s comment about Biden’s post-election position follows Rep. Adam Kinzinger, who took to Twitter on Nov. 7 to acknowledge Biden’s victory: “Congratulations to Joe Biden and Kamala Harris. Our nation deserves two competing parties who can work together when possible, and compete honorably when not.” Other Illinois Republican Party leaders, however, are keeping quiet about their opinions on the outcome of the presidential race. Illinois GOP Executive Director Derek Murphy and party Chairman Tim Schneider didn’t respond to requests for comment, and neither did GOP Reps. Mike Bost (12th), Rodney Davis (13th), or John Shimkus (15th). GOP Rep. Mike Bost tweeted Nov. 8 that he supports Trump’s “efforts to ensure all legal votes are counted… So while Joe Biden & supporters celebrate, our work continues.” Illinois House Minority Leader Jim Durkin and newly named state Senate Minority Leader Dan McConchie said they don’t comment on national security issues. Political strategist Collin Corbett says he’s not surprised some Illinois Republicans are keeping quiet. “Everyone knows Biden has won. It’s a matter of respect [for Trump]. They want to let the guy get through the process.” Corbett, who heads the “right of center” Cor Strategies, expects transfer of power will happen “and it will be peaceful. There’s no sense in angering him in the meantime.” – Shia Kapos

WALL STREET JOURNAL
— How Covid-19 Will Change Aging and Retirement Among other things, expect more aging in place and a wave of innovation to help make that happen – Anne Tergesen
https://www.wsj.com/articles/how-covid-19-will-change-aging-and-retirement-11605452401
(FROM THE ARTICLE: 7. We need to save more to retire While stocks for now continue to perform well, lower bond yields caused by the pandemic might make it harder to make ends meet on a fixed income. For years, retirees have relied on the so-called 4% rule, which says you can withdraw 4% from your savings in the first year of retirement, and then give yourself an annual raise to account for inflation, without running a big risk of running out of money. For someone with a $1 million portfolio, that formula produced an initial income of $40,000 and—assuming inflation of 2%—an increase to $40,800 in year two. But today’s low bond yields mean future returns are expected to be lower than in the past, says David Blanchett, head of retirement research at Morningstar Inc. Mr. Blanchett says his safe-spending recommendation is now between 3% and 3.5%. That means that someone who wants to safely withdraw $40,000 in the first year of retirement needs to save closer to $1.2 million than $1 million. . .9. We will work longer Since the 1990s, the percentage of people 55 and older in the labor force has risen steadily, to 40% in 2019 from 29% in 1993, according to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics. With bond yields low, stock values high and Social Security in precarious shape, the trend will accelerate. “There’s so much uncertainty about the future…most people are going to continue to work as long as they can,” says Prof. Carstensen. With companies embracing remote work and flexible hours and the gig economy expanding, it’s easier for many older people to remain employed, says Jack Rowe, a professor of public health at Columbia University. Of course, not everyone has the ability to work into their 70s or beyond. Some are in poor health, have jobs they can no longer perform or are victims of age discrimination. “As a society, we will have to provide ways for people who cannot work to receive support, says Prof. Carstensen.”)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: Barlow said the council’s current partisan divide — six Progs, five Dems and one independent — creates “obstacles to dialogue and compromise.” He said he would not seek a party nomination. “It’s probably easier to work on community problems without all the extra baggage and entanglement that comes with party affiliation,” he said.)

(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.)

November 8 Morning Edition

TRUMP/PENCE CAMPAIGN
— The media does NOT decide who is President
https://secure.winred.com/tmagac/election-defense-fund-cond
(FROM THE ANNOUNCEMENT: This Election is far from over. We all know why Joe Biden is rushing to falsely pose as the winner, and why his media allies are trying so hard to help him: THEY DON’T WANT THE TRUTH TO BE EXPOSED. Joe Biden has NOT been certified as the winner of any states, let alone any highly contested states headed for mandatory recounts, or any states where our campaign has valid and legitimate legal challenges that could determine the ultimate victor. The American People are entitled to an honest Election; that means counting all legal ballots, and not counting any illegal ballots. This is the only way to ensure the public has full confidence in our Election. The Biden campaign wants ballots counted even if they are fraudulent, manufactured, or cast by ineligible or deceased voters. Only a party engaged in wrongdoing would unlawfully keep observers out of the count room – and then fight in court to block their access.)

https://www.dailyherald.com/business/20201108/liz-weston-the-upsides-to-thinking-about-when-you-will-die
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Social Security’s life expectancy calculator predicts I’ll live to about 86. An insurance company’s version says I should expect to die at 98. A longevity calculator created by actuaries demurs, putting the odds at only 32% that I’ll make it to 95. Eventually, I’ll find out which life expectancy calculator was most accurate. In the meantime, the different results help illustrate one of the most important and difficult calculations in retirement planning: figuring out when it will end. People who underestimate their life expectancy could save too little for retirement and run short of cash. People who overestimate how long they’ll live might stay in the workforce longer than they want to or spend less in retirement than they could.)

AMERICAN THINKER
— Former journalist receives AP survey, laughs out loud at huge bias in questions – Laura Peterson-Lytle
https://www.americanthinker.com/blog/2020/10/former_journalist_receives_ap_survey_laughs_out_loud_at_huge_bias_in_questions.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The postcard even goes on to describe the AP as an “independent, not-for-profit news organization committed to the highest standard of objective, accurate journalism for the past 170 years.” Yes, I will admit, I laughed. Looking back, it now serves as a bright, neon, flashing sign of how dishonest and standardless the poll would turn out to be. . .The poll goes on to ask many questions that are intentionally, manipulatively inaccurate, and others that are structured to allow the AP to interpret to suit its predetermined goal. For example, in attempting to gauge the respondent’s primary issues of importance, one question asked if the “economic downturn” would factor into his selection process. The possible answers to that question range from “very likely” to “not at all.” The obvious question is what economic downturn, but the poll does not allow one to ask. Essentially, the poll attempts to subconsciously plant the idea that some undisputed “economic downturn” is taking place. Was the question referencing the economic downturn in Democrat-run, riot- and looting-ridden cities that have shut down and forbidden life outside liberal rabble-rousing? If so, it should clearly state such. That is not what the poll’s intention is, though. It is nothing more than a thinly veiled attempt to imply that the economy is not improving under President Donald Trump — something categorically false, deceptive, and intentional on the part of the AP. If respondents assert they are voting for President Trump and that such an “economic downturn” is not a factor in their decision, the AP can manipulate those results to imply that Trump-supporters simply “don’t care” about a bad economy. Never mind the fact that no such economic downturn is occurring outside Democrat-run cities.)

— Former FERC Chair Chatterjee on demotion by Trump: ‘I don’t give a f@&!’ – REBECCA BEITSCH (DIERSEN: What if I had taken Chatterjee’s attitude? In 1997, when I was 49 years old, to force me to take their early retirement “offer,” my Democrat GAO superiors made it clear that they would demote me constructively, if not literally. Reasons why I succumbed and took their early retirement “offer” include a) it would be 6 long years before I would be eligible for regular retirement, b) GAO was not unionized, c) none of my superiors, supervisors, coworkers, or subordinates would have supported me, d) fighting it would have harmed my mental and physical health, e) I did not have enough support of Henry Hyde’s staff, and f) I could suffer the 59% loss of income because of my wife’s income, we had no dependents, we had no debts, we owned a home and cars, and we had retirement savings. However, my 59% loss of income for the rest of my life dramatically cut our standard of living. Further, my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes have used my being forced to take early retirement to viciously demonize me, to viciously denigrate me, and to viciously denigrate me as being a White supremacist, Nazi, KKK member, hater, racist, sexist, bigot, and even worse things. Needless-to say, I should sue my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes.)

How will newly elected Democrat leaders treat RINO leaders who did everything that they could to destroy the Republican Party? How will newly elected Democrat leaders in DuPage County and Illinois treat RINO leaders in DuPage County and Illinois who did everything that they could a) to destroy the Milton Township Republican Organization, DuPage County Republican Central Committee, Illinois Republican Party, TAPROOT Republicans of Illinois, Wheaton Chamber of Commerce Government Affairs Committee, Illinois Center Right Coalition, American Association of Political Consultants Midwest Chapter, etc.; b) to stop me from sending out GOPUSA ILLINOIS emails; and c) to stop everyone from reading those emails?

(FROM THE ARTICLE: A student senator at Northern Illinois University wants to remove the vice president of the student government because of his conservative beliefs and activism. Kyle Jacobson, the Student Government Association vice president at the public university, has found himself the target of a removal attempt by senator Samantha Gurrola because Jacobson helped start a Turning Point USA group on campus. Jacobson’s Facebook page also shows support for the “Blue Lives Matter” movement, which shows support for law enforcement.)

DAILY HERALD
— ‘A very stressful situation’: Why election night results were delayed in DuPage, Lake counties – Lauren Rohr (DIERSEN: According to a report, the DuPage County Election Division is processing 24,000 vote-by-mail ballots (VBM) that came in Friday-Monday that the signatures were verified on and those will be posted soon. There are 2,547 provisional ballots and 23,000 VBM ballots that have not been returned yet.)
https://www.dailyherald.com/news/20201104/a-very-stressful-situation-why-election-night-results-were-delayed-in-dupage-lake-counties-
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The DuPage County clerk’s office had posted some early and vote-by-mail counts, but none from its 930 precincts, before a 45-minute glitch snarled the transfer of data from the tabulation system to the website, Chief Deputy County Clerk Adam Johnson said. Tallies weren’t updated again until well after 10 p.m., and vote totals from all precincts weren’t posted until 1 a.m. . .A slew of tight races in DuPage, paired with the national attention placed on vote-counting processes, resulted in a “very stressful situation,” made worse when the data export tool froze, Johnson said. Election judges continued tabulating votes while the technical problems were being addressed, he said. Election authorities anticipated processing a high volume of ballots, Johnson said, and aside from the glitch, everything went according to plan. Additional vote-by-mail ballots were being processed Wednesday, with more expected to roll in over the next two weeks, he said, and the clerk’s office communicated frequently with party leaders on both sides. But DuPage County Republican Party Chairman Jim Zay called the delay “unacceptable,” saying the state’s second-largest county should be better equipped to handle the election night rush. “We’ve had too many elections that we’ve had these issues,” he said. “It has to be fixed.” Johnson acknowledged the county’s systems are slow and outdated, adding to what is already a high-pressure situation for candidates, voters and election officials. “We’re being as transparent as possible,” he said. “We have a constant inflow of ballots … and we just had a lot of data to update over the course of the evening.”)
