NEW YORK TIMES
— What’s Your Ideal Community? The Answer Is Political – Emily Badger
http://www.nytimes.com/2016/11/04/upshot/whats-your-ideal-community-the-answer-is-political.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The American political map that has emerged over the last half-century, with blue cities and red beyond, is a product of both the ideological realignment of the two parties and geographic sorting among voters. It also raises a fascinating question about how our politics are shaped by where we live. Is it simply that people who are already liberal choose dense urban environments and conservatives choose more suburban living? Or do these places influence how we feel about government — and each other — in ways that make us more liberal or conservative? Political scientists, fortunately, cannot randomly assign people to cities, suburbs or rural outposts and then wait to see if their politics adapt. But their theories of why density might matter for partisanship add a provocative layer to how we think about the differences among us that are more often defined in an election year by education, income or race. A large Pew survey two years ago of American political life found that self-described liberals overwhelmingly said they’d prefer to live where the homes are smaller and closer together but where the amenities are within walking distance. Conservatives chose the opposite trade-off: big homes, spaced farther apart, but with schools and restaurants miles away. The question got at a pattern underlying politics today: Beyond our disagreements about taxes, welfare or health care, partisans also fundamentally favor different kinds of places.)

CONSERVATIVE REPUBLICAN NEWS
— IS THIS THE LAST MAJORITY WHITE ELECTION? (DIERSEN: Since the 1960s, with Affirmative Action, with Diversity, and with Inclusion, Whites have given minorities a tremendous amount of preference. As minorities become the majority, how will minorities treat Whites?)
http://conservativerepublicannews.com/2016/11/07/is-this-the-last-majority-white-election/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: According to a WalletHub survey on the impact of minorities in America, 2016 is the last chance Republicans stand to win the White House… until 2060: “The study used two models based on population projections and matched to the overwhelming 65 percent minority turnout for President Obama in 2012 and the underwhelming 50 percent response for George W. Bush in 2004. The bottom line: In no presidential election from 2020-60 do the Republicans win. The closest the Republicans come is 2020 when the Democratic vote under the 2004 model reaches 50.48 percent, WalletHub said. The widest gap is projected for 2060, when the minority population will be its biggest, delivering the Democrats 58.8 percent of the vote.” The analysis pretty much states the obvious: that the growth of liberal-leaning minorities is outpacing the growth of both minority and white Republicans. It’s unclear, however, whether WalletHub’s survey accounted for voter fraud, or even acknowledges that it’s a real problem.)
— EUROPE’S DISMAL FUTURE – Kent Kellar
http://conservativerepublicannews.com/2016/11/07/europes-dismal-future/
— THOSE WHO CAN’T PRODUCE REGULATE THOSE WHO CAN – Seton Motley  (DIERSEN: I worked for the federal government for almost 30 years.  Motley would say that I became a federal employee and that I stayed a federal employee because I cannot produce. He would say that while I was a federal employee, I was a professional scold, a busybody, a bureaucrat, clueless, feckless, a know-nothing, and an ideological-tyrant. In my defense, in 1971 when I was 22 years old, if Oldsmobile had not withdrawn its job offer that I had accepted, I would have become an Oldsmobile employee and not a federal employee.  Once you become a federal employee, it is all but impossible to get a job in the private sector because private sector employers hate federal employees more than Motley does.  Further, in my defense, I passed the CPA and Certified Internal Auditor examinations on my first attempt, I earned four other professional certifications, I became a licensed CPA, and I earned master’s degrees in business, accounting, and finance.)
http://conservativerepublicannews.com/2016/11/07/those-who-can-do-those-who-cant-regulate-those-who-can/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: And that’s where government comes in. Populated in far, far too many instances by people steeped not in the pursuit of excellence – but in its persecution. If these people were actually good at productive work – they would be doing productive work. But they’re not. So they’re professional scolds and busybodies – government bureaucrats lording over those doing productive work. Those who can – do. Those who can’t – regulate those who can. . . .Yet a bunch of anti-free-market, clueless, feckless government bureaucrats are pretending it is. So Schneiderman can continue his years-long effort to make Exxon’s life miserable. Here’s a thought: How about we rein in the know-nothing, ideological-tyrant bureaucrats? And let those skilled in the art of productive work – get back to engaging in productive work. Unhindered and un-harassed by the know-nothing, ideological-tyrant bureaucrats. Our economy, our nation – and the world – would be so much the better for it.)

AMERICAN THINKER
— The ‘progressives’ are sending intimidating emails (in Illinois Congressional District 10) threatening to ‘out’ you – Ed Lasky
http://www.americanthinker.com/blog/2016/11/the_progressives_are_sending_intimidating_emails_threatening_to_out_you.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: I happen to live in a suburb and district that, too often, votes for Democrats (Illinois 10th, where we are currently represented by a Republican, Bob Dold). This year people in my suburb are getting mailed notices with their names on top and underneath their names, in bold print,  “Official Voting Record”.  What follows is a rundown on the history of the recipients’ voting record since 2008 in general elections — not who they voted for but whether they voted. Underneath that record is a notification that, while your vote may be secret, whether or not you vote is a matter of public record. . .The mailing continues: This year we’re sending you and your neighbors those records to help you keep track of your civic participation. How would your friends, family and neighbors feel if they saw your voting record and knew you were an infrequent voter”  Do your part and make a plan to vote on Tuesday, November 8th. In small fine print is a notice that the mailing was paid for by the “Progressive Turnout Project” and not authorized by any candidate or candidate’s committee. However, if one turns to the website of the group, http://www.turnoutpac.org/, one can see in bold headlines “Connecting with voters and getting Democrats to the polls.” At the bottom of the first page is a local P.O. Box address, leading one to think (wrongly) that the group is truly a local, grassroots effort-as they pitch themselves to be. That would be, naturally, a lie. Clicking through the website will show no names of who is running and funding this project, but one will see the races they are targeting across the country. They are in battleground districts with a substantial number of Democrats. Every single politician this group is targeting is a Republican. This “grassroots group” is no such thing and though it may boast it is some sort of civic group that is not authorized by any candidate or candidate’s committee, it is in reality an AstroTurf (fake grassroots) group, funded by the Democratic Party or its allies to increase the turnout of people who will likely vote Democratic. My friend who shared the mailing with me is not registered as a Democrat or Republican. I am registered as a Republican and did not get the mailing. Clearly the mailing was geared towards increasing the number of votes for the Democrat running in my district, since it is likely that people who are not registered as Republicans would be inclined to vote Democratic. As mentioned above, this district is very mixed between Republicans and Democrats. If you exclude from the mailings registered Republicans, the group increases the odds that their mailings can intimidate people into going to the polls and voting Democratic.  But what is most offensive is the intimidation and threat of exposure (blackmail?) to one’s friends, family and neighbors that you chose not to vote. This tactic is underhanded and repugnant-something that should not surprise since the Democratic Party, as Kimberly Strassel has written in her outstanding book, “The Intimidation Game” and as Project Veritas Action has shown with its videos, specialize in intimidation.)

PARIS TEXAS EXTRA
— National Save for Retirement Week – So Take Action – Stephen Gerrald  (DIERSEN: Overwhelmingly, those who serve as operatives or as dupes for my critics/opponents have saved little or nothing for their retirement. They are filled with envy and they are furious that my wife and I have saved lots of money for our retirement. They hint/imply/argue/shout that we were able to save lots of money for our retirement only because I avoided the draft, only because I have always been overpaid, only because my wife and I gave up trying to have children, only because we did not adopt, only because we did not become foster parents, only because I do not give money to a church, only because etc.  They hint/imply/argue/shout that they are going straight to HEAVEN because they have financial problems.)
https://www.eparisextra.com/all-business/114668/its-national-save-for-retirement-week-so-take-action__trashed
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Congress has dedicated the third week of October as National Save for Retirement Week. Clearly, the government feels the need to urge people to do a better job of preparing for retirement. Are you doing all you can? Many of your peers aren’t – or at least they think they aren’t. In a recent survey conducted by Bankrate.com, respondents reported that “not saving for retirement early enough” was their biggest financial regret. Other evidence seems to show they have good cause for remorse: 52% of households 55 and older haven’t saved anything for retirement, according to a report from the U.S. Government Accountability Office, although half of this group reported having a pension. Obviously, you’ll want to avoid having either financial regrets or major shortfalls in your retirement savings. And that means you may need to consider making moves such as these: Take advantage of all your opportunities. You may well have access to more than one tax-advantaged retirement plan. Your employer may offer a 401(k) or similar plan, and even if you participate in your employer’s plan, you are probably still eligible to contribute to an IRA. You may not be able to afford to “max out” on both plans, but try to contribute as much as you can afford. At the very least, put in enough to your employer’s plan to earn a matching contribution, if one is offered, and boost your annual contributions every year in which your salary goes up.)

— Is Fox News the only suitor for Megyn Kelly? (DIERSEN: My critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes hint/imply/argue/shout that the more money that you are paid, the more credibility that you are.  They shout that because I am not paid any money to serve as your GOPUSA Illinois Editor, I have no credibility. According to this article, Fox News as willing to meet Kelly’s asking price of a $20 million annual salary.  I should ask my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes how much money are they are paid a year and who pays them.)
http://www.gopusa.com/?p=16699
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The much expected bidding war for the services of Fox News anchor Megyn Kelly has apparently fizzled, due in part to Rupert Murdoch’s indication last week that he wants to re-sign the star anchor and was willing to meet her asking price of a $20 million annual salary. According to Vanity Fair, CNN, ABC and CBS are passing on the opportunity to hire Kelly: “One CNN insider explained, ‘of course we would love to have her,’ before noting that poaching Kelly, given the likely cost of her contract, ‘is not something we are seriously considering.’ Instead, this person elaborated, CNN is investing more in documentary-style programming after the election. ‘I don’t believe anyone is pursuing her other than Fox at this point,’ said one ABC insider. A source close to CBS said that they are not making an offer, either. (The person close to Kelly noted that discussions with rival executives were ongoing.)” If that’s true, that really only leaves NBC and MSNBC as potential suitors. But in this era of tight budgets it’s unlikely they would be willing to cough up the kind of money that Kelly wants. Kelly has been under fire from conservatives ever since her tough questioning of Donald Trump at the first GOP presidential primary debate last year. Her ongoing squabbles with the nominee have sent viewers elsewhere, leading to some slippage in her ratings.)

DAILY HERALD
— MAY 17, 2011 FLASHBACK: Gresk: Get Hubble on tax rolls
http://www.dailyherald.com/article/20110517/news/705189928/
— Moving toward better balance of worker benefits, taxpayer affordability – Editorial  (DIERSEN: Do you want government to be a “model employer?”  What is your attitude toward government employees and toward government retirees?  Are/were you a government employee?  I was a federal employee for almost 30 years.  Are you a government retiree?  I have been a federal retiree for more than 19 years. Many millions have not and will not seek a job with the federal government a) because the pay and benefits are terrible, b) because the advancement opportunities are terrible, c) because they lack required education, work experience, professional certifications, and/or professional licenses, d) because they cannot pass an employment examination, e) because they cannot pass a background investigation, f) because they cannot pass a physical examination, g) because they cannot take the demonization, denigration, and condemnation that comes with being a federal employee or federal retiree, and/or h) because they are Republican, White, male, older, and/or non-veteran and they know that the federal government discriminates against its employees who are Republican, White, male, older, and/or non-veteran.)
http://www.dailyherald.com/article/20161102/discuss/161109662/
(FROM THE EDITORIAL: The public pension crisis in Illinois is a runaway train. So when we see someone actually try to apply the brakes, we take notice. The DuPage County Forest Preserve District this week approved a sweeping series of changes to its employee pay policies that leaders predict will save the county $6 million over the next 20 years. That might not seem like a lot of money, but it’s not chump change. What it is an important step in the right direction. Just think of how this could mushroom if similar steps were taken in many of the other 6,900-plus taxing bodies in Illinois. A story today by staff writer Robert Sanchez lays out how forest preserve commissioners have decided to ratchet down an established bonus program and also put the brakes on lump-sum payouts to qualifying or retiring employees for unused sick time. “These changes will curb long-term spending, especially in the area of pension costs,” Commissioner Jeff Redick said, “and allow us to responsibly serve the taxpayers and both our current and future employees.” The district for years has handed out longevity-based bonuses to retiring or qualifying employees that averaged $15,000 to $20,000. You don’t find that in a lot of private-sector jobs. Not anymore. Nor do you find many companies that still — if ever — reimburse employees for unused sick time. The district isn’t going to take money from people already expecting it. Like companies that have eliminated their 401(k) contributions in lean times, those employees who already are in the bonus program — called a “retention incentive” program — will still get bonuses, but starting Jan. 1 they no longer will grow. Those who haven’t yet qualified for the bonus program never will. The district also is putting limits on lump-sum payments for sick days accrued after the start of next year. What is even more important is that the forest preserve district has decided to eliminate both the bonus and sick time payback from the calculation of pensions. That in itself is expected to save $4.5 million in pension liability over the next 20 years. In a time when pension payments in some cases are reaching a tipping point with operational costs for governmental bodies, it’s important to look toward ways in which the private sector has managed to stay afloat in tough financial times. Other taxing bodies should follow this example.)

http://www.huffingtonpost.com/entry/trump-katy-tur-florida-rally_us_581aa7b8e4b0c43e6c1e1795
(FROM THE ARTICLE: GOP nominee Donald Trump singled out NBC News reporter Katy Tur on Wednesday during a rally in Florida, continuing to taunt reporters covering his campaign. Tur has been embedded with the Trump campaign, following the candidate throughout the presidential race. Trump in the past has called out Tur publicly by name, and has referred to her as “Little Katy, third-rate journalist.” During his usual takedown of the “dishonest media” in Miami on Wednesday, Trump called out the press  – and specifically Tur – for being biased and not reporting fairly on his campaign. “We have massive crowds. They’re something happening. They’re not reporting it. Katy, you’re not reporting it, Katy.” Trump said to cheers. “But there’s something  happening, Katy. There’s something happening, Katy.” CNN host Wolf Blitzer last week asked Trump campaign manager Kellyanne Conway to talk to the Republican nominee about singling out reporters, especially those embedded with the campaign, citing safety concerns. “He points to them, he sort of eggs the crowd on to go after them,” Blitzer said. “There are a lot of young journalists. He shouldn’t be doing that.” Conway appeared on Blitzer’s CNN show later Wednesday and defended Trump, saying he didn’t intend to suggest that anyone be mean to Tur or to attack her. “After he did that . . . she was harassed by a lot of the people over there,” Blitzer said. “The last time we spoke, you told me you shared my concerns about the singling out of these embeds … You said you would talk to him. How did that conversation go?” “The conversation was very productive and I’ve also talked to NBC News today,” Conway said. “Look, we want fair coverage and we wan’t everybody to be safe at our rallies. I don’t appreciate a lot of the threats I get either from people who I guess are worried that we may actually win this thing.” After Trump taunted Tur, other journalists tweeted #ImWithTur in support of the NBC News reporter. Editor’s note: Donald Trump regularly incites political violence and is a serial liar, rampant xenophobe, racist, misogynist and birther who has repeatedly pledged to ban all Muslims – 1.6 billion members of an entire religion – from entering the U.S.)

— Trump campaign table on campus walkway is about all one triggered college student can stomach – Dave Urbanski
http://www.theblaze.com/news/2016/10/31/trump-campaign-table-on-campus-walkway-is-about-all-that-one-triggered-college-student-can-stomach/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Trouble didn’t take long to find University of Pittsburgh students who set up a campaign table for Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump on a campus walkway last week. It started harmlessly enough, depending on your definition, when passers-by yelled things such as, “F*** the white male patriarchy!” at those manning the table across from Hillman Library, the Pitt Maverick reported. Another “student came up to us and made a claim about how Trump wants to get rid of ‘his people,’” sophomore Kirk Breiner added to the Maverick. Then things escalated. A man declaring the table supported a “racist” candidate approached Breiner and another student volunteer Matt Kerlin, grabbed a stack of Trump door-hangers and nearly started a fight, the paper said. Later two students came over to the table, and one swept all the Trump literature to the sidewalk while the other flipped the table upside-down: The culprit then scurried away: “And we’re the violent ones,” one person, presumably a Trump supporter, was heard sarcastically noting on a video of the incident. Sophomore Steven Evanovich shot the clip and contacted campus police, who are investigating, the paper said. “It’s a shame that different opinions are met with such hostility at institutions of higher learning,” Evanovich told the Maverick. “Calling Trump’s rhetoric ‘hate speech’ actually reinforces and encourages the notion that violence against conservative or dissenting students is justified, and my own campus shouldn’t be a place where my friends or I are fearful for having opposing opinions.”)

http://triblive.com/opinion/editorials/11371626-74/federal-veterans-hiring
(FROM THE EDITORIAL: The lip service that the Obama administration pays to veterans about their health care — given excessive waits at Veteran Affairs facilities and suicide hotline delays — extends to hiring them for federal jobs. By law, disabled veterans and those with active-duty service are supposed to get preference in federal hiring. But a government report shows that’s not always the case, specifically when political appointees are considered for plum jobs. “There is a clear bias against veterans,” Darin Selnick, a retired Air Force captain and former Veterans Affairs official, tells The Daily Signal. “They think veterans should start at the bottom like everyone else.” Of course, experience and qualifications are factored for federal job applicants; the law is supposed to prevent political favoritism. But in hiring a quarter of President Obama’s political appointees, federal agencies didn’t follow policies to avoid favoritism, according to the Government Accountability Office. The GAO report sampled 30 federal agencies from January 2010 to October 2015. Never mind proposed changes to hiring policies that would limit veterans’ job preference to a single use. For vets who have secured civilian government jobs, that would eliminate any preference consideration when they apply for higher positions. Our country owes its veterans a debt for their service. Playing fast and loose when it comes to federal job hiring is an intolerable disservice that deserves no place in any administration.)

On September 16, 1996, I presented oral arguments to Chief Judge Posner and to Circuit Court Judges Coffey and Kanne.  On March 31, 1997, the Appellate Court agreed with me and ruled that DOT’s exemption for cars over 10 years old was invalid.)

AMERICAN THINKER
— The Place of Race in Air Traffic Control – Dan Subotnik  (DIERSEN: Ever-increasingly, since the 1960s, to promote Affirmative Action, Diversity, and Inclusion, that is, to give preference to young minorities and to young females, the federal government has lowered its hiring and promotion standards, made those standards less objective, and made those standards more subjective.)
http://www.americanthinker.com/articles/2016/10/the_place_of_race_in_air_traffic_control.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Since we cannot be sure that the FAA can be trusted to put safety first, its initial mandate, one has to wonder whether diversity might be weighted too heavily.  The larger point here is that the FAA has not been straight with us. The first order of FAA business then should be to explain itself in full. Has technology replaced the need for technical skill?  If the FAA continues to stonewall, we are left with the kind of government arrogance that rallies people to Donald Trump and, to the extent that the FAA is training people who may not have competitive skills, to a distinct sense of foreboding. Dan Subotnik, Professor at Touro Law School, is author of “Toxic Diversity, Race, Gender, and Law Talk” (NYU) and many articles (the latest in Academic Questions).)

— Are we afraid to put up election signs? – Karen Schlabach, Glen Ellyn  (DIERSEN: If you do not display a Clinton/Kaine sign in your front yard, does that mean that you have already voted for Trump/Pence or that will vote for Trump/Pence?)
http://www.dailyherald.com/article/20161029/discuss/161028739/
(FROM THE LETTER: Here it is, less than 30 days until the most contentious presidential campaign that I can remember, yet driving through the Glen Ellyn and Wheaton areas I have seen just one election sign and that was for Hillary Clinton/Tim Kaine. I personally think this election is so negative that no one wants to have a sign in their yard declaring which candidate they choose. I believe they are afraid of a brick or worse, being thrown through their window. Good thing the election booths are private.)
— Trump is our last line of defense – Nancy J. Thorner, Lake Bluff
http://www.dailyherald.com/article/20161028/discuss/161028771/
(FROM THE LETTER: The shameless “Borking” of Trump has become nonstop since he became the Republican presidential nominee, fostered by print media and TV networks which have unabashedly joined forces with the Democratic Party. Trump, not of the establishment, would shake up the status quo and the power and money that flows to those who support the globalist agenda of the rich and powerful working behind the scenes to control this nation’s destiny. How will Hillary’s call for (1) open borders as a portal through which flow murderers, drugs, drug lords, cartels, and hundreds of thousands of illegal immigrants and (2) extending a welcome mat to thousands of un-vetted Syrians for whom we could query our database until the cows come home and yet find nothing if no records exist?  Keep Americans safe? Hillary can’t even define who the enemy is, and she supports the Iran Nuclear deal travesty. Spineless establishment Republicans created the Trump movement, giving Obama the upper hand to leave this nation with a $20 trillion-plus unsustainable debt and a dismal economy. Obama is on track to be the only U.S. president in history who fails to deliver a single year of GDP 3 percent-plus economic growth, his, a dismal overall 1.55 percent rate. Hillary’s announcement to raise taxes on the rich will cripple business expansion, a job creator, and stifle GDP growth. Trump is the last line of defense against a continuation of Obama’s failed policies through a Hillary administration. Hillary’s Supreme Court appointees would render the Second Amendment (gun rights) meaningless and imperil religious liberty. Trump desires to help this country and is committed to secure our freedom and restore our nation’s greatness, militarily and economically.)

— Election campaign tame compared to the debacle of 1968 – Chuck Sweeny  (DIERSEN: What were you doing in November of 1968?  I was a full-time UIC student and a part-time Park Forest Post Office employee.  I lived with my parents and brother in Crete and I drove a 1968 Oldsmobile 442.)
http://www.journalstandard.com/news/20161029/chuck-sweeny-election-campaign-tame-compared-to-debacle-of-1968
(FROM THE ARTICLE: So, as crazy as this year’s campaign seems, I’m not afraid the country will crack up. In 1968, as a student about to enter the University of Illinois Chicago, I really did fear for what would happen to the U.S.A. Both the Rev. Martin Luther King, Jr., and Democratic presidential candidate Robert Kennedy had been assassinated that spring; there were riots in many cities; 500,000 U.S. troops were in Vietnam; college campuses were in turmoil and people like me wondered, “Can anybody here operate this place?” Chicago’s reputation as a political convention location was ruined. Between 1860 and 1968, Chicago hosted 14 Republican and 10 Democratic presidential nominating conventions. Since 1968, the Republicans have not been back. Democrats did come back finally, but not until 1996. I covered that and let me tell you, Mayor Richard M. Daley, son of Richard J. Daley, must have sent all his cops to charm school. They were the friendliest folks in uniform since Captain Kangaroo.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: Shugart has made Welter’s youth an issue in the campaign. At 49, she is nearly double his age. She contends life experience makes for better lawmakers. “Surviving through adversity builds character, knowledge and the ability to understand people,” she said. Welter countered his age was no problem, especially given his experience in government. He said Shugart’s criticism was “discouraging” for young people. “It doesn’t matter how old you are. When I came prepared, people started listening to me. You don’t get to be Grundy County chairman, the youngest in the state at the time, without building coalitions. I had Democrats and Republicans support me.”)

http://foxillinois.com/news/local/auditor-dispute-in-champaign-county
(FROM THE ARTICLE: George Danos, who is running for Champaign County Auditor, had some comments to say about his opponent and current auditor, John Farney. He suggests that Farney violated an Illinois Public Act by falsely stating his chief deputy auditor was a certified accountant. He said that this violates the Illinois law by not having an active license with the Illinois Department of Financial and Professional Regulation. Farney called these allegations false and said his chief deputy auditor is highly qualified. “I really find it disappointing and disturbing that my opponent is dragging her good name through the mud,” said Farney. “I find it appalling that he would expose one of his employees to professional risk, she is under the discipline of the profession we share, he’s not an accountant and shows no such risk,” explains Danos. But Danos also included that Farney does have a comprehensive financial report where he incorrectly puts the designation CPA.)

They stress that I was a federal employee for almost 30 years, and that for a non-veteran White male federal employee like me to be successful, you must make GS-13 (currently $92,632) by age 25, GS-14 (currently $109,463) by age 30, GS-15 (currently $128,759) by age 35, and Senior Executive Service (currently $160,300) by age 40.  They shout that because federal employees are stupid and lazy, my not making GS-13 until I was 38 and my being forced to retire when I was 49 proves that I am extremely stupid and lazy.)
http://www.nctv17.com/success-in-naperville/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: A group of six African-American professionals in fields ranging from government to medicine to entertainment spoke to a group of Jefferson Junior High students as part of their first SUCCESS Career Day. Assistant Principal Jeremy Christian praised the event. “It helped to really give them a visual of what it’s like to be successful,” he said. “A lot of times African-American students, especially in Naperville, they don’t have something that’s positive to look to because they don’t see anyone that looks like them, so our goal today was to offer them alternatives, giving them some tangible people or tangible things to look at, processes and systems where they can kind of mimic their pathway to their future.” SUCCESS, which stands for “School Using Coordinated Community Efforts to Strengthen Students,” focuses on empowering black and other minority students to achieve greatness. This was the first SUCCESS event at Jefferson, which has around 70 black students out of their nearly 900 total, a sense of minority that panelists addressed.)

— A Woman Was Arrested for Voter Fraud. It Was a Donald Trump Supporter  She was afraid her first ballot for would be changed to a vote for Hillary Clinton – Mahita Gajanan  (DIERSEN: How many of the many millions who are in America illegally will use their false identifications to vote for Clinton and for the other Democrats in the November 8, 2016 election?)
http://fortune.com/2016/10/29/trump-supporter-voter-fraud/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Police in Des Moines, Iowa, arrested a woman on suspicion of voting twice in the general election. Terri Lynn Rote, a registered Republican, is accused of submitting ballot at two different early voting stations, the Des Moines Register reports. Rote told Iowa Public Radio that she was afraid her first ballot for Donald Trump would be changed to a vote for Hillary Clinton. “I wasn’t planning on doing it twice, it was spur of the moment,” she said. “The polls are rigged.” Polls being “rigged” has become a common refrain in Trump’s campaign, as the Republican nominee has repeatedly insisted that voter fraud is common. “Of course there is large scale voter fraud happening on and before election day,” Trump tweeted on Oct. 17. “Why do Republican leaders deny what is going on? So naive!” Rote was arrested Thursday on a first-degree election misconduct charge, which is a Class D felony. She was released Friday on a $5,000 bond.)

Give ‘Em a Gift Card  Perks work. – Kristen Bahler (DIERSEN: Did your employers reimburse their employees for tuition for job-related courses?  My employers did not except for some small token amounts by GAO.  My Democrat superiors, supervisors, coworkers, and subordinates used that to justify their not taking job-related courses.  Instead, they focused on destroying employees who were Republican, White, male, older, and/or non-veteran.)
