NEWSWEEK
— Charges Announced for 17 People After Rockford Protests Over Two Days – MATT KEELEY (DIERSEN: If there have been no Back the Blue rallies in your municipality, why is that? In your municipality, how strong/threatening are the BLMers and LGBTQers, that is, how strong/threatening are the Democrats in your municipality?)
https://www.newsweek.com/charges-announced-17-people-after-illinois-protests-over-two-days-1522193
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Police in Rockford, Illinois announced charges Saturday for 17 people arrested during protests over two straight days. On Friday, 11 protesters were arrested after a small protest blocking East State Street, according to WTVO. Then Saturday, an additional six protesters were arrested during a counterprotest at a “Back the Blue” rally in support of police. Rockford Police Chief Dan O’Shea, Winnebago County Sheriff Gary Caruana, and State’s Attorney Marilyn Hite Ross held a press conference Saturday afternoon announcing the charges. Six of the protesters were charged with mob action alone, while three more were charged with mob action and resisting arrest. Other charges included aggravated battery to a police officer, disorderly conduct, obstruction of police officers, damage to property and resisting a police officer. “The First Amendment is very clear. It does not give unbridled freedom to infringe on the rights of others,” Ross said. Former Democratic State Rep. Litesa Wallace shared a video in which she said she raised about $2,000 from her supporters to pay the bond for six of those arrested on Friday. “I am exhausted—which doesn’t say a lot because I didn’t do a lot today. I can only imagine how tired and exhausted the individuals who were arrested are. And I can only imagine how tired and exhausted people who are older than me are, who have been in this fight and wanting justice and equality for decades upon decades,” she said. . .The Friday protest was over the treatment of protesters during a May 30 demonstration in Rockford responding to the police-involved death of George Floyd in Minneapolis. Protesters alleged that the Rockford Police used excessive force. An internal investigation by police announced Wednesday that it had found no evidence of wrongdoing by the officers. About 20 protesters announced several demands on Friday, including that the city drop all charges against demonstrators involved in the May 30 protest, and that the police hire an outside investigator to determine whether excessive force was used.)

— Arrests made after protesters, police clash following ‘Back the Blue’ rally
https://www.wifr.com/2020/08/01/arrests-made-after-protesters-police-clash-after-back-the-blue-rally/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: At least 100 attendees of a pro-police rally in downtown Rockford were met by anti-police protesters Saturday morning. The groups Concerned Citizens for America of Northern Illinois and the Illinois Family Institute held the rally at the Winnebago County Justice Center, at 650 W. State Street in downtown Rockford. Rep. John Cabello (R-68th) and former Rep. Jim Sacia (R-89th) spoke at the rally which was held to “Support all men and women in law enforcement and the amazing, vital, and dangerous work they do to protect our communities and country from lawlessness and evil.” This comes following a protest on Friday evening, where nine protesters were taken into custody and later charged. However, former Illinois Rep. Litesa Wallace raised money to help bond out those arrested Friday night.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: There’s a new Jim Crow afoot in America. Once again, it’s coming from the Democrats, but this time, instead of pitting whites against blacks, it’s pitting blacks against whites. Beleaguered white people technically have the Civil Rights Act of 1964 at their back but, in the witch hunt atmosphere currently prevailing in America, it’s unclear whether they’ll have the courage to use it. The Civil Rights Act of 1964 doesn’t mince words. It exists to outlaw discrimination based upon a person’s race, color, religion, sex, or country of national origin. It explicitly expands these protections to employment programs. Under Title VII, “It shall be an unlawful employment practice for any employer, labor organization, or joint labor-management committee controlling apprenticeship or other training or retraining, including on-the-job training programs to discriminate against any individual because of his race, color, religion, sex, or national origin in admission to, or employment in, any program established to provide apprenticeship or other training. (42 U.S. Code §2000e-2(d).)” The City of Seattle has put a program in place for its 10,000 employees. There are special whites-only aspects of the program. In the “white only” portions of the program, whites must admit that they are racist (and, presumably, any refusal is more proof of racism), and then they must have that racism trained out of them. Christopher Rufo has obtained the materials for the segregated “whites only” training. Trying to summarize the material falls far short of showing the immensity of this Title VII violation, so I’ve embedded all of the tweets below.)

Is the mayor of your municipality pro-BLM/LGBTQ/DEMOCRAT or pro-Back the Blue?)
https://www.mystateline.com/news/local-news/pro-police-back-the-blue-rally-draws-counter-protesters-in-downtown-rockford/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Attendees of a pro-police rally in downtown Rockford were met by anti-police protesters Saturday morning. Rep. John Cabello (R-68th) and former Rep. Jim Sacia (R-89th) are among the speakers expected at an “Illinois Back the Blue” rally in Rockford today. Cabello was a former Rockford Police Detective; Sacia served 28 years as a FBI special agent in Rockford before serving 11 years as an Illinois State Representative. The groups Concerned Citizens for America of Northern Illinois and the Illinois Family Institute plan to hold the rally from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. at the Winnebago County Justice Center, at 650 W. State Street. In a press release, the organization said it will hold the rally, “To support all men and women in law enforcement and the amazing, vital, and dangerous work they do to protect our communities and country from lawlessness and evil.” This comes following several demonstrations by anti-police protest groups in Rockford, the most recent of which was Friday night. About 20 protesters blocked East State Street near the Rockford City Market Pavilion. City Market had been canceled due to the protester’s planned activity. For the past month market-goers have been met by those protesters. Several vendors told Eyewitness News they do not feel save while doing business and say the disruptions were keeping people away. There were some tense moments as drivers attempted to make their way through the area. Rockford Police and Winnebago County Sheriff’s deputies moved in to help drivers get past. Nine protesters, five women and four men, were eventually taken into custody. In response, the group Rockford Youth Abolitionists announced they would be demonstrating at the “Back the Blue” rally. “We are standing in solidarity with protesters arrested yesterday at a nonviolent protest and against the fascist police state. RYA condemns the actions of law enforcement as well as the white supremacist rally happening,” the group said in a statement.)

WALL STREET JOURNAL
— The Captive Mind and America’s Resegregation Idol smashing and cancel culture are part of a broad ideological project to dominate society. – Andrew A. Michta
https://www.wsj.com/articles/the-captive-mind-and-americas-resegregation-11596222112
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Since the death of George Floyd in Minneapolis, nationwide protests, which quickly turned to riots, have been hijacked by the neo-Marxist left, morphing into an all-out assault on American cities and institutions. This assault is underpinned by an audacious attempt to rewrite history that turns specific past events into weapons not only to overpower political opponents but also to recast all of American history as a litany of racial transgressions. The radicals have turned race into a lens through which to view the country’s history, and not simply because they are obsessed with race. They have done so because it allows them to identify and separate those groups that deserve affirmation, in their view, and those that do not. What is taking place is the resegregation of America, the endpoint of which will be the rejection of everything the civil-rights movement stood for. What is driving the radical protesters and rioters—who are enabled and manipulated by the “digital intelligentsia” in the press and an expanding segment of the political and business classes—is contempt for the freedom of anyone who fails to comport with their image of a just society. In authoritarian systems those in power seek to proscribe certain forms of political speech and social activity. Totalitarians claim unconditional authority to reach deep into each person’s conscience. They prescribe an interpretation of the world and dictate the language with which citizens are permitted to express that interpretation. Authoritarian regimes leave largely untouched the private civic sphere of human activity; totalitarians destroy traditional value systems and reorder the culture. That is why they are harder to overthrow. The ill-named progressivism that has inspired shrill demands to dismantle police forces and destroy statues is only a small manifestation of a massive project aimed at the re-education of the American population. The goal of this project is to negate the story of the American republic and replace it with a tale anchored exclusively in race categories and narratives of oppression. The nature of this exercise, with its sledgehammer rhetoric that obliterates complexities in favor of one-dimensional “correct” interpretations, is as close to Marxist agitprop as one can get.)

FEDERAL NEWS NETWORK
— Implementing EO to change federal hiring practices – Tom Temin (DIERSEN: Democrats run the federal government. In 1966, when I was 16 years old, the Democrats who ran the Post Office would not have hired me if I had not earned a high school diploma in 1966. In 1971, the Democrats who ran IRS would not have hired me if I had not had earned a job-related bachelor’s degree (in management) in 1970. In 1972, 1973, and 1974, the Democrats who ran IRS would not have promoted me if I had not been taking job-related (business) graduate courses. In 1980, the Democrats who ran GAO would not have hired me if I had not earned a job-related master’s degree (in business) in 1976, passed the CPA examination on my first attempt in 1979, and almost completed the requirements for my second job-related (in accounting) master’s degree. In 1986, the Democrats who ran GAO would not have promoted me if I had not completed the requirements for my a second job-related (accounting) master’s degree in 1980, passed the Certified Internal Auditor examination on my first attempt in 1981, and became a licensed CPA in 1981. The Democrats who ran GAO would have succeeded in forcing me to take their early retirement “offer” sooner than they did if I had not become a Certified Fraud Examiner in 1990, a Certified Government Financial Manager in 1994, a Certified Financial Services Auditor in 1996, and a Forensic Accountant in 1990 and if I had not completed the requirements for my third job-related (finance) master’s degree in 1997.)
https://federalnewsnetwork.com/hiring-retention/2020/07/implementing-eo-to-change-federal-hiring-practices/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Last month, the White House issued an executive order, 13-392, to curb what President Trump believes is over-reliance on credentials in federal hiring. And not enough emphasis on skills and merit. As is often the case, it’s up to the Office of Personnel Management to figure out how to implement the order.)

https://www.politico.com/newsletters/illinois-playbook/2020/07/28/whos-on-the-program-pandemic-fundraising-lightfoot-dismisses-rumor-489905
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Corinne Pierog, a Democratic candidate for Kane County Board chair, may take the cake for creative fundraising. She’s holding a Zoom dance lesson and party with special guests Congressman Bill Foster and state Rep. Karina Villa. Will Foster dance? It might be worth paying just to see. Pierog also held a drive-through fundraiser at a pizza restaurant — contributors got a slice when they dropped off their donations. Everyone’s learning to adapt while campaigning and fundraising amid a pandemic. We’re hearing about socially distant breakfasts, rooftop viewing of the Cubs and lots of socially distant golf. Paul Stoddard, a Democrat running for state rep in the 70th District, held a live gathering at the Campton Forest Preserve, where he served ice cream and encouraged social distancing. And Republican Rep. Andrew Chesney is planning a hog roast fundraiser Sept. 26. Still, concerns about coronavirus weigh heavy. Democratic Rep. Emanuel “Chris” Welch canceled a gathering at Pier 31 and held a Zoom instead. The worries about coronavirus were too great, he said during the event. Notables who zoomed in included Lt. Gov. Juliana Stratton, House Majority Leader Greg Harris, Senate Majority Leader Kimberly Lightford, Cook County Board President Toni Preckwinkle and Personal PAC CEO Terry Cosgrove. Republican Rep. Tony McCombie went ahead with her live event — a golf fundraiser. Being outdoors is safer than gathering inside, after all. But a few days after the July 18 outing, she got word that an attendee had tested positive for the coronavirus. She found herself making calls to inform all the donors who golfed. “We’ve been working hard to meet the new demands while being respectful of guidelines and people’s boundaries,” McCombie told Playbook of campaigning during a pandemic. To attendees of live events, her message is simple: “If you’re sick, please stay home and contact a medical professional.”)

https://townhall.com/columnists/georgemullen/2020/07/27/americas-second-civil-war-has-already-begun-n2573081
(FROM THE ARTICLE: America’s second civil has already begun — sans the real shooting (and abject carnage), at least yet. If you doubt this, take a hard look at New York City, Washington DC, Atlanta, St. Louis, Chicago, Seattle, Portland, and most other major urban centers — our so-called civilized society is tearing itself apart. As such, the U.S. federal government must intervene to crush the violent insurrectionists wherever they rear their heads. The Insurrection Act of 1807 authorizes this action, and if our current situation doesn’t warrant deploying it, then what does? Bottom line, we must stop this insurgency before it goes ‘hot’ like our first Civil War. Non-violent protests should continue to be respected and protected — freedom of speech and the right to ‘peaceably’ assemble are bedrocks of our republic. However, politically-motivated protesters who use violence to attack officers of the law, physically harm others, and destroy property; as well as elected public officials who encourage or condone such acts (thus violating their oath to defend the U.S. Constitution), should be arrested and charged with insurrection against the United States, a.k.a. treason. This behavior needs to be stopped in its tracks. Serious federal measures must be deployed — the risks to our republic are growing by the day. Those alive when Fort Sumter was fired upon in 1861 could not have imagined the carnage it would unleash — more than 618,000 dead Americans in just four years. By continuing to allow our current situation to fester, we risk a similar dark outcome. Our first Civil War percolated with small clashes for several years before Fort Sumter turned it into a declared hot war. As such, letting the current situation continue to percolate ignores the lessons of history and may be a major miscalculation. We don’t want future historians to point to Minneapolis as our nation’s second Fort Sumter moment.)

I should write a book about the successes that Democrats and their Libertarian, Green, and RINO enablers have had in DuPage County, DuPage County’s 4th District, Milton Township, Wheaton, Wheaton’s West District, my precinct, and my neighborhood. According to those who run your municipality, your township, your county, and Illinois, what percent of those in your municipality, in your township, in your county, and in Illinois are racist?

— JULY 5, 1996 FLASHBACK: DOLE TAKES PULSE OF THE HEARTLAND – Dan Balz (DIERSEN: I attended this rally and that made my Democrat GAO superiors furious.)
https://www.washingtonpost.com/archive/politics/1996/07/05/dole-takes-pulse-of-the-heartland/913b56e4-dd07-4491-9bb3-7de45ad54d5f/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Republican presidential candidate Robert J. Dole came to the heart of Republican territory in Illinois for a Fourth of July parade and patriotic celebration and said America had endured as a great nation because of “the values of the heartland.” On a warm, summer morning, Dole joined thousands of local residents at the annual Wheaton parade, walking the length of the 1.3-mile parade route that was lined with people who cheered and applauded as he passed by. Wheaton lies in the heart of one of the most GOP counties in the country, a suburban Republican bastion that is crucial to his hopes of unseating President Clinton in November. The enthusiastic reception at the end of a week in which Dole had once again stumbled on the tobacco issue seemed to boost his spirits and buoy his confidence in the race to overtake Clinton. “We’re going to make it,” Dole crowed as he stopped to greet some of the well-wishers. “Wipe him out.” Later at a rally at Memorial Park, Dole recalled the spirit of 1776 as he extolled American virtues and recounted the nation’s triumph over Nazi Germany in World War II and the Soviet Union during the Cold War. “Look around the world this beautiful summer day and ask yourself what has endured,” Dole said. “All those empires have passed away. They were built on raw power and heartless ideology. After more sacrifice and suffering that can never be measured, they are gone.” What has endured, Dole said, are places that symbolize the strength of heartland America, like his home town of Russell, Kan., or like Wheaton. He added, “As long as we hold to the values of the way we began on July 4, 1776, the United States of America will always endure.” But Dole said the United States must never allow its defenses to be weakened, and pointed to the truck bombing in Saudi Arabia that killed 19 Americans as evidence of the terrorist threats and anti-American forces that exist around the world. “We don’t know exactly who’s responsible for this latest outrage,” he said. “The long list of suspects makes clear there is no shortage of those willing to attack innocent people. But together as a nation we resolve that the murderers will be captured and brought to justice — and they should be — and the punishment ought to be death.” Dole also offered his audience this bit of patriotic rhetoric: “I would tell this audience here today, there’s no place like America. There’s no place on Earth like America. This is America. Right today is America. The Fourth of July is America. This is America.” Wheaton is the county seat of DuPage County, the biggest Republican county in Illinois, which has regularly supplied enough votes to help Republican candidates offset Democratic Chicago. Clinton captured only 31 percent of the vote in DuPage four years ago, but President George Bush received just 47 percent, far below the normal level of support for Republicans. Gov. Jim Edgar (R), who accompanied Dole today, said the Republican candidate needs a big victory in suburban Chicago and still has some ways to go. “He’ll do very well downstate,” Edgar said, referring to the counties outside the Chicago metropolitan area. “In the suburbs, the key is to carry it by as big a margin as possible. . . . He needs to be here more. They just don’t know him as well as they should.” Gayle Franzen, the county executive and a Republican, agreed that Dole needs to spend more time in the suburbs but said by November the Republican candidate will be in strong shape here. “The whole integrity issue is sticking {on Clinton},” he said. “In this county {integrity} means everything. Dole is going to set the tone for this.” Walking the parade route this morning, Dole often set a brisk pace, but he paused along the way to shake hands and pose for photographs with those who had come to see him. Local residents said this year’s crowd was larger than usual because of Dole’s participation. “Even a 100-year-old woman at the nursing home knew Dole was coming to town,” said Susan Whelton, who watched Dole pass by. The parade was filled with fire trucks and old cars and floats and the parade route was lined with families with small children. “Go citizen Bob!” yelled one man as the candidate walked by. Jon and Leigh Ann Vock said they had reserved their places along the parade route by putting down chairs at 5 p.m. on Wednesday, 12 hours earlier than usual. Both said they were strong Dole supporters. “If he picks a candidate {for vice president} who’s pro-life, we’ll really, really be supportive,” she said. “We’ll go door to door.” Jim and Diane Neptune also said they support Dole. “We’re Republicans,” she said. Her husband said that unless Dole can come up with something fresh, “it’s going to be a tight race” against Clinton. “But there’s still a lot of time. It’s good that he is out here. People need to know who he is.”)

DAILY HERALD
— ‘Unmasked’ rally defies school virus rule, Pritzker critique – AP
https://www.dailyherald.com/article/20200725/news/307259926/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The ‘Million Unmasked March,’ which took its name from the social-justice march a quarter-century ago, drew about 250 people, including a stalwart group of counter-demonstrators who periodically let loose their own shouted protests from across the street. It came a day after Pritzker put four of Illinois 102 counties on ‘warning level’ status for dangerously increased numbers of COVID-19, which officials traced to ‘risky behavior’ such as large gatherings and out-of-state travel. Saturday, officials announced 1,426 newly confirmed cases of the illness, with 12 new deaths. COVID-19, the illness caused by the coronavirus, has now contributed to 7,397 deaths among 169,883 cases, although many of those infected have recovered.)
— How Evelyn Sanguinetti plans to fight for fair housing in the suburbs – Marie Wilson (DIERSEN: What about political affiliation discrimination? From what I see as a resident of DuPage County, DuPage County’s 4th District, Milton Township, and Wheaton since 1978 and as a resident of Wheaton’s West District and Milton Township’s Precinct 9 since 1984, it seems ever-increasingly clear that Democrats are being steered into the aforesaid political jurisdictions. It seems ever-increasingly clear that Democrats are being told that Republicans are rapidly dying off and that Democrats will soon control all the units of government in DuPage County. Further, it seems ever-increasingly clear that Democrats are being told that those who are older, conservative, Protestant, German American, heterosexual, married, and those whose ancestors have been in America for a long time are also rapidly dying off. Further, it seems ever-increasingly clear that Democrats are being told about the ever-increasing number of votes that Democrat candidates get in the aforesaid political jurisdictions. Further, it seems ever-increasingly clear that those who are minority, female, younger, and/or non-poor AND who are religious, conservative, and/or Republican are being steered away from the aforesaid political jurisdictions. The aforesaid is political affiliation discrimination.)

EVANSTON ROUNDTABLE
— Reparations Subcommittee Decides on Three Housing Programs, $25,000 for Each – Larry Gavin
https://evanstonroundtable.com/Content/City-News/City-News/Article/Reparations-Subcommittee-Decides-on-Three-Housing-Programs-25-000-for-Each-/15/26/18318
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Eligibility of Applicants Under the housing remedy proposal, people seeking to participate in one of the three housing programs must meet one of the following two criteria: First, “Be a Black resident and suffered discrimination in housing as a result of City ordinance, policy or practice;” OR Second, “is a direct descendent of a Black Evanston resident who resided in Evanston between 1919 to 1969 who suffered discrimination in housing as a result of City ordinance, policy or practice.” (Sometimes called the “legacy” provision). These criteria have not change since they were last discussed by the Subcommittee. Ald. Simmons said, “I think that is an area that we are going to have to rely heavily on our law staff.” Nick Cummings, Deputy City Attorney, said applicants must demonstrate that they meet one of the two criteria. He said if an applicant was seeking to qualify under the legacy provision, there were a lot of historical documents, recorded deeds, census data and other records available. In addition, Dino Robinson, the founder of Shorefront, and Dr. Jenny Thompson, Director of Education at the Evanston History Center, are putting together a report providing information about historic policies and practices, both governmental and societal, that discriminated against Black people in Evanston. Whether an applicant could rely on this report to prove a legacy claim is not yet clear. Mr. Cummings added that if a person was claiming they personally suffered discrimination at the hands of the City, “that is certainly something else entirely different and may require or may necessitate the assistance of an attorney,” Mr. Cummings said, “but I can’t say that for certain.” The Subcommittee has not yet considered who would decide if an applicant satisfied one of the two criteria. Mr. Cummings said, “It certainly is the understanding, you don’t expect it to be City staff to make those decisions solely.” He suggested that the determination might be made by the proposed Stakeholders Reparations Authority.)
