CHICAGO TRIBUNE
— Getting retroactive Social Security benefit payments. Because of the repeal of GPO and WEP, my Social Security increased from about $3,000/year to about $6,000/year. Also, I got about $3,200 in backpay. Further, because the repeal, I am now eligible to claim 50% of my wife’s Social Security, but I will only get 43% because I took Social Security when I was 62.
https://tribunecontentagency.com/article/the-savings-game-getting-retroactive-social-security-benefit-payments/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Q. I receive a significant pension from work I have done outside of Social Security. I have not worked enough hours under Social Security to receive a benefit based on my work record. My spouse is retired and receives a generous Social Security benefit. A few years ago, I contacted Social Security and asked if I was eligible for a spousal benefit. I was informed that because two-thirds of my pension exceeded the spousal benefit I would otherwise be entitled to, that I shouldn’t even apply for a spousal benefit because of the regulations related to the Government Pension Offset (GPO). So I did not apply. When the Windfall Elimination Provision (WEP) and GPO were repealed at the end of 2024, I filed for a spousal benefit because I was told that the two-thirds reduction was no longer in effect. After I applied, I was told that because I never applied for a spousal benefit prior to the repeal of GPO, I was not eligible for retroactive payments. I am now receiving a spousal benefit, but why am I not entitled to retroactive payments? A: More than one reader has written to complain about this situation. There is no logical reason why you should not be entitled to retroactive benefit payments. Many individuals who are now receiving a spousal benefit for the first time because of the repeal of GPO also receive six months of retroactive benefit payments.)

— FRONT PAGE WITH PICTURE: Illinois adding more electric vehicles than ever before, but not enough to meet goal of 1 million by 2030. I own one of the 21,961 registered EVs in DuPage County. I bought a new 2025 Dodge Charger Daytona R/T Plus earlier this year. Because the MSRP was more than $55,000, it did not qualify for the $7,500 federal tax credit. But I did get the $4,000 State of Illinois rebate.
https://www.dailyherald.com/20250726/news/illinois-adding-more-electric-vehicles-than-ever-before-but-not-enough-to-meet-goal-of-1-million-by/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: However, according to figures recently released by Illinois Secretary of State Alexi Giannoulias, there are still less than 150,000 EVs registered statewide, well below the state’s targeted goal of 1 million by 2030. Infrastructure issues also make that goal difficult to reach though, many experts contend. . .However, according to figures recently released by Illinois Secretary of State Alexi Giannoulias, there are still less than 150,000 EVs registered statewide, well below the state’s targeted goal of 1 million by 2030. Infrastructure issues also make that goal difficult to reach though, many experts contend. . .As part of President Donald Trump’s “One Big Beautiful Bill Act,” a $7,500 tax credit for the purchase of a new electric vehicle ends Sept. 30. The $4,000 tax credit for purchasing a used electric vehicle is going away as well. . .Walton said the goal of rebates was to help lower prices for electric vehicles, which has occurred. New entry-level EVs run about $30,000, he said. The average price for any new car in the U.S. is about $50,000. Illinois charges electric vehicle owners an additional $100 per vehicle as part of the annual registration fees. The fee is intended to cover the loss of motor fuel tax revenues that go to pay for road construction and repairs statewide.)

https://www.news-gazette.com/opinion/editorials/editorial-pritzkers-vow-to-put-illinois-republicans-on-hit-list-rings-hollow/article_f7e91c5f-9f5b-43f8-97e9-ed56bcb71edf.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: When it comes to government, there are few things more unattractive than nakedly partisan power politics, as reflected by a ruthless process called gerrymandering. Too many people don’t understand the concept, but it’s as simple as it is basic. Gerrymandering is the drawing of legislative district boundary lines — both state and federal — to give one political party an advantage over the other on Election Day. The typical tactics used are called “packing” — diluting the minority party’s strength by placing most of its voters into a few select districts — and “cracking” — splitting up a geographically compact group across multiple districts in order to reduce their electoral influence. Presto, chango, legislative elections are won and lost before a single vote has been cast. In Illinois, Democrats have gerrymandered state and federal districts to give themselves a super-majority in the state House and Senate and 14 of 17 seats in the U.S. House of Representatives.)

https://www.breitbart.com/news/calif-illinois-may-fight-new-texas-congressional-maps-with-their-own/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: As the Texas Legislature plans to redraw congressional maps in an effort to increase Republican members in the U.S. House, the governors of California and Illinois may devise their own new borders. . .As the most populous state in the nation, California has 43 Democratic members of the house and nine Republican members, while Illinois is represented by 14 Democrats and three Republicans. “Everything is on the table,” Pritzker said. The Illinois governor said he doesn’t want to redraw the maps but “if they’re going to take this drastic action, then we might also take drastic action to respond.” “We want the country to understand [that] what’s going on in Texas is a national battle,” State Rep. Richard Pena Raymond, a Democrat from Laredo, said. Raymond told Pritzker that redistricting is “clearly aimed at affecting the entire country.” Responsibility for determining Congressional district maps differs from state to state. In California, an independent commission approved by voters in 2010 works on the maps. Illinois maps, on the other hand, are put together by the state lawmakers have been drawn strongly to favor the Democrat Party in the state.)

Democrat and RINO leaders ever-increasingly fight deportation of their illegals. Illegals take bad jobs. Employers want cheap labor. All my employers would have hired illegals instead of me if they could have. My critics/opponents cannot say that because they did not have to take bad jobs because their parents had lots of money. Because my parents lacked money, I had to take bad jobs. I did yard work for 2 summers. I delivered newspapers for 4 years. I washed dishes for 18 months. I cleaned golf shoes, chipped slag, and pumped gasoline during 1 summer. I delivered mail for almost 3 years. I should write about my critics/opponents. I would focus on those whose parents had the most money. They look down on people like me, if not despise people like me.

— Is Decapitation a Job Americans Won’t Do?
https://prescottenews.com/2025/07/27/opinion-is-decapitation-a-job-americans-wont-do-ann-coulter/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Oh look, another American’s been beheaded by a Mexican. This week’s beheader is Jose Luis Mendoza-Gonzalez, an illegal alien who, according to the Department of Homeland Security, decapitated 37-year-old Megan Bos, then stashed her body in a bleach storage container. Arrested for the crime in April, Mendoza-Gonzalez was promptly released from custody by Illinois judge Randie Bruno, who is the same physical type — chubby, short-haired, white woman — as the Milwaukee judge charged with helping an illegal sneak out of her courtroom to avoid ICE agents. Illinois: sanctuary state for Mexican decapitators. Because they’re not busy enough rounding up the 20 million pillars of society Joe Biden allowed to sneak into America, Immigration and Customs Enforcement had to devote time and resources this week to recapturing Mendoza-Gonzalez. Otherwise, you never would have heard about it, and liberals could keep pretending not to know that Mexican drug cartels decapitate people.)
