TOWNHALL
— America’s Second Civil War Has Already Begun – George Mullen (DIERSEN: How soon will the BLMers, that is, the Democrats, riot in your municipality?)
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.)

— 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.”)

(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.)

— 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.)

LAW OFFICER
— OUTSTANDING: Oklahoma prosecutor charges rioters with acts of terrorism
https://www.lawofficer.com/oklahoma-prosecutor-charges-rioters-with-acts-of-terrorism/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Two teenagers are the latest to face terrorism charges after reportedly helping to break in the windows of an Oklahoma City bail bonds business in late May during the riots that swept the nation in the wake of the custodial death of George Floyd in Minneapolis. Several dozen protesters conducted a sit-in at the office of Oklahoma County District Attorney David Prater on Monday to demand that he drop the terrorism charges and resign, Fox News reported. But Prater maintained last month that those who incite violence in the streets are “criminals” who “have subverted peaceful protests and impaired the open discussion regarding race in our country.” “When you employ these tactics for a political purpose, you are a terrorist,” he said. Prater also accused Black Lives Matter protestors of trying to intimidate him and law enforcement and of defending “criminals who are violent, exploitive and unscrupulous.” The district attorney said: “It is my job to protect innocent citizens and their property and I will continue to do it to the best of my ability.” Haley Lin Crawford and Sydney Lunch, who both turned 18 within the past month, were charged last week with acting with a large crowd to unlawfully break the windows of CJ’s Bail Bonds in Oklahoma City on May 30, the Oklahoman reported. The charges came after investigators identified the two young women using Facebook Live video streamed by other demonstrators and tips to CrimeStoppers.)

The board also voted to alter the sociology, music and philosophy departments, possibly by incorporating more interdisciplinary collaboration.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: Now, Congress will get the opportunity to pass a relief measure that protects your access to trustworthy local news, helps grow local businesses through ads placed in local news media — and rewards you for subscribing to a newspaper like this one. The Local Journalism Sustainability Act, introduced on Thursday, is a bipartisan bill co-sponsored by U.S. Representatives Ann Kirkpatrick, a Democrat from Arizona, and Dan Newhouse, a Republican from Washington state. In brief, the legislation provides for tax credits for subscribing to a local newspaper, payroll credit for paying journalists who provide local news, and credit for advertising in local newspapers and local media. This act responds to the insidious way the pandemic has deeply damaged American communities in a malevolent cycle.)

— OUTSTANDING: Kendall County GOP hosts campaign rally at Town Square Park – SHEA LAZANSKY (DIERSEN: Hopefully, the officers of Republican township, ward, and county party organizations across Illinois will be hosting such rallies. If I was still the chairman of TAPROOT Republicans of Illinois, the organization would be hosting such rallies. But I acknowledge that Democrats and Democrat plants, Libertarians and Libertarian plants, Greens and Green plants, and RINOs would continue to discourage attendance at such rallies.)
https://www.kendallcountynow.com/2020/07/11/kendall-county-gop-hosts-campaign-rally-at-town-square-park/dnhg5fq/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Thunder and lightning didn’t stop Kendall County Republicans from gathering in Yorkville’s Town Square Park Saturday afternoon for a campaign rally for area candidates and a chance to show their support for law enforcement and the military. Oswego resident and Republican precinct committeeman Jason Hudson helped to coordinate and organize the event for the Kendall County chapter of the Republican Party. The rally, he said, was intended to give officers and veterans a moment of recognition. “We see so many counter protests, shaming our police departments. I wanted to do a rally saying, ‘Hey look, we support our police, we support our veterans’,” Hudson said. “We all know that all the police aren’t bad, they keep us safe and protect us. Yes there are bad apples within the bunch, but the group is really great…more people are good cops than there are bad cops.” Hudson and the Kendall County Republicans did ask that the news of the rally not be publicized in advance. When asked to explain that action, Hudson said that he thought it would be a ” good idea to keep this down low.” “The people on the left, they don’t really want to come out and have a discussion about this,” Hudson said. “Had we had a counter protester here, I would have given them two minutes on the stage. “The last thing we want is for somebody to come out here and incite any kind of violence or anything like that. We’re peaceful. If somebody were to set up across the street from us and have a counter protest and they wanted to come over here and speak, we’ll give them two minutes, as long as they’re reasonable.” “We all have common grounds,” Hudson said. “We all want to raise our kids, we all want to have safe streets, we all hate racism…we all have that in agreement. It’s just a matter of coming together and communicating about it.” Several candidates for state and federal office spoke at the rally, touching on points like the COVID-19 pandemic, Black Lives Matter protests, supporting law enforcement and the military, and the 2020 election. “Battle lines have been clearly drawn,” State Senator Jim Oberweis (R-25) told the crowd. Oberweis is running for the position of U.S. Representative against incumbent Lauren Underwood. Oberweis called a growing movement to defund police departments, “A direct assault on our country and our values.” While Oberweis stated his support for peaceful protests, he acknowledged that “bad actors” have turned the rallies across the country violent. “The answer to the violent and wrongful death of George Floyd is not more violence,” Oberweis said, “And it certainly isn’t defunding the police. “We need to take steps to heal this nation and address radical discrimination. But we do not need to adopt radical policies like defunding the police.” State leaders’ response to the coronavirus pandemic was also a hot topic for speakers. State Representative David Welter (R-75), campaigning for re-election, called out the actions of “King” Pritzker, in his response to the pandemic. Welter highlighted several lawsuits in various phases throughout the state, challenging Governor JB Pritzker’s actions over the past several months. “Small business owners, churches, different individuals and organizations trying to save their livelihood, trying to get by, and we continue to have a governor who is trying to make it as difficult as possible,” Welter said. “The Democrats want to tell us that it’s okay to riot, but it’s not okay to open our business. They want to tell us it’s okay to riot, but it’s not okay to praise God, to go to church,” Tom McCullagh, state senate candidate for the 49th district said. McCullagh, who touted his distribution of face shields to first responders, also reminded the crowd to pay attention to the status of several lawsuits against Pritzker’s coronavirus response. Jeanette Ward, running to fill Oberweis’ seat, also criticized the governor’s response to the pandemic, comparing his behavior to that of a “Socialist dictator.” “His unconstitutional mandate was supposed to end after 30 days, and it was defeated in court last week,” she said. “Yet he still keeps on making rules and laws as if he was a socialist dictator.” “If you are not free to enter public spaces and go shopping without a face covering, you are not free. If you are not free to hold church services and worship God while abortion clinics continue their murderous spree, you are not free,” Ward told the crowd. “If you aren’t opening your business to the public without government permission, you are not free. If you’re not free to take your children to public playgrounds that you pay for, you are not free. If you’re not free to send your children to school, paid for with your money, and allow them to play freely with other children, you are not free.” “It’s amazing to me how ‘my body, my choice’ only applies to certain things. That’s only if you want to kill the unborn,” she said. “2020 is not just a fight for the heart and soul of Illinois,” McCullagh reminded the crowd during his remarks. “It’s a fight for the heart and soul of our country.”)

My grandfather on my father’s side fought the Germans during WWI. My uncles on my mother’s side fought the Germans in WWII. My father would have fought the Germans in WWII if he had not been 4-F. I should write a book about my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes who demonize, denigrate and condemn German Americans. I would focus on those who are German American themselves, but who demonize, denigrate, and condemn German Americans to curry favor with and to pander to those who demonize, denigrate, and condemn German Americans.)

https://www.breitbart.com/politics/2020/07/11/bidens-2020-party-platform-proposal-seeks-to-abolish-americas-suburban-communities/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Joe Biden’s radical proposal for the Democrat Party platform for 2020 seeks to put an end to America’s suburban communities by forcing low-income housing into every neighborhood and flooding every community with immigrants, legal or otherwise. The proposal, known as the Biden-Sanders Unity Task Force Recommendations, would provide instant amnesty and a pathway to U.S. citizenship for the 22 million illegal aliens now living in the nation. Astoundingly, it would also give legal status to all the world’s refugees regardless of the legitimacy of their claim to the status.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: In 2014, I wrote the book “The Murder of the Middle Class.” Don’t look now, but sadly … tragically … it’s really happening. The left is crazy, extreme, radical, violent and ready for civil war. The Republican right — outside of President Trump — is a bunch of pathetic wimps ready to raise the white flag. We are the closest we’ve ever been to losing America. Have you ever seen as many spineless Republican politicians as we see today? Black Lives Matter is a Marxist group that is said to fund the Democratic National Committee. Republican Sen. Mike Braun says he supports Black Lives Matter. He also supports eliminating qualified immunity for cops. That’s the end of police in America. With Republicans like him, who needs enemies? Republican Sen. Mitt Romney marched with Black Lives Matter. How can anyone be such a dupe?)

— Wall Street campaign to hire Black talent isn’t going so well – Kelsey Butler (DIERSEN: GAO audits federal financial industry regulators. Compare and contrast how GAO treats its Democrat employees who are minority, female, and/or younger. GAO focuses on retaining and promoting its Democrat employees who are minority, female, and/or younger. To make way for them, GAO gets rid of its employees who are Republican, White, male, and/or non-veteran who do not make GS-13 (currently $101,176) by age 25, GS-14 (currently $119,559) by age 30, GS-15 (currently $140,634) by age 35, and Senior Executive Service (currently $170,800) by age 40. Extremely few GAO employees make the aforesaid promotion deadlines.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: For Black professionals who get job offers on Wall Street, there’s pay and benefits to consider. But also isolation, bias and racism. As big U.S. banks and asset managers vow at long last to address the industry’s dearth of Black executives, those who have been around a while warn progress will require more than the usual hiring spree. Offices remain alienating and even inhospitable. Most organizations lack mentors who can help guide the way up the org chart. Recruiters say top Black candidates have learned to be skeptical. “Folks are looking for welcome signs,” said Anthony Wright, founder of Diversity Recruiters, a Seattle-based executive search firm that helps clients including banks with inclusive hiring. “And when you’re a minority, the sign doesn’t say ‘Welcome,’ the sign says ‘Is there anybody there that looks like me?’ ”)

(FROM THE PROMOTION: This event will celebrate the retirement of the majority rule over the second-largest county in the state, which we predict will happen after the county election this November. We hope to educate participants about and demand the removal of Peter DiCianni, a member of the DuPage County board who has shown disrespect towards his constituents and the black community as well as endangered their health, as detailed by Hinsdale for BLM here and by multiple news outlets (Patch, MySuburbanLife.com). We also are pushing for 22 state policy initiatives that could be done in the next Illinois legislative session that would help stop the killing of BIPOC when they are signed into law. We will aim to raise awareness about things like the Census, Mail-in Voting, and the Illinois Fair Tax proposal. This event includes speakers (local candidates, youth activists and organizers, and educators), a COVID-19 testing car caravan, voter registration, public commenters sent to the DuPage County board meeting, a march, music, and a celebration to mark the upcoming retirement of the Republican majority in the board, which we predict will happen by the end of this year.)
