ILLINOIS REVIEW
— BRINKMAN: THE RISE AND DECLINE OF ILLINOIS’ ONCE-DEPENDABLE DUPAGE REPUBLICAN PARTY
https://www.illinoisreview.com/illinoisreview/2018/11/the-rise-and-decline-of-the-dupage-republican-party.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: When James “Pate” Philip left as DuPage party chair in 2003 he left it with half a million dollars. Without their long time leader the DuPage GOP quickly fragmented into the nine individual township organizations who learned to fend for themselves. The money quickly dwindled and was never replenished. Neither were these organizations created equal in their ability or resources to fend for themselves. The lasting coup of the 2010 redistricting map is that it took those districts that followed GOP organizational lines and smashed them up. Local Republican organizations long used to having one representative and one senator now suddenly had five or six in some cases. To be required to focus on too much is to focus on nothing at all. This has undone local efforts to bolster candidates. Tea Parties admirably tried to pick up some of this slack as have larger more well-heeled groups like that of Dan Proft. Tactical victories partially explain the decline, but not the broader trends. While the township organizations helped slow the decline they were not the essential force in DuPage’s rise to preeminence. How then was the county so effective at its peak? Was it all just demographics as some would argue, or purely leadership? Surely both played a role, however one feature absent over the decline of the DuPage party was its massive and systematic outreach during its peak. The county GOP sent a quarterly newsletter to each and every voter. A substantial portion of what was raised every year and at massive events (like the one where Nancy Louise met Pate) went to their distribution. These efforts helped to educate all voters and especially newer ones to see why conservative governance was essential first at the local level, then at the state level. Before they knew it, they had become reliable Republican voters!)

 

CAPITOL FAX
— The governor talks about the election and the future of the ILGOP
https://capitolfax.com/2018/11/30/the-governor-talks-about-the-election-and-the-future-of-the-ilgop/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Though he criticized Democrats, Rauner also said his own party needs to take a look at itself post-election. When asked who should lead the Illinois Republican Party, Rauner did not give a direct answer. “Well, we have a chairman, Tim Schneider and a co-chairman,” Rauner said, referring to the newly ousted Cook County Commissioner, whom he handpicked to lead the party, and conservative Lake County GOP Chairman Mark Shaw, who led a quasi-coup of the party leadership in May. “We have some wonderful elected officials who are Republicans,” the governor continued. “We have major donors and funders who are proud Republicans and I think it’s going to be an appropriate process for the Republican party to do some reflection and some discussion about where we go as a party and where we go as a state and lay out a vision for the future. Clearly, changes are needed. Clearly, improvements are needed.”)

WASHINGTON EXAMINER
— Federal workers warned: Advocating Trump impeachment not allowed until second term – Steven Nelson (DIERSEN: Of course, because I have always been a Republican, my Democrat superiors, Democrat supervisors, Democrat coworkers, and Democrat subordinates in the federal government always treated me like I was a member of the Republican “deep state.” They always hinted/implied/argued/shouted that I frustrated their efforts a) to hire, retain, and promote young Democrat minorities and young Democrat females and b) to make way for them by getting rid of employees who were Republican, White, male, and/or non-veteran who had not made GS-13 (currently $96,403) by age 25, GS-14 (currently $113,920) by age 30, GS-15 (currently $134,000) by age 35, and Senior Executive Service (currently $164,200) by age 40.)
https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/news/white-house/federal-workers-warned-advocating-trump-impeachment-not-allowed-until-second-term

(FROM THE ARTICLE: The memo was highlighted by the group American Oversight, which is calling on the OSC to rescind the guidance. “With the Trump administration already corruptly trying to root out the ‘deep state,’ the OSC should not empower Trump appointees to target people who ‘resist’ administration policies like family separation,” the advocacy group said in a statement.)

— The Religion of Leftism – Allie Stuckey
https://townhall.com/columnists/alliestuckey/2018/11/30/the-religion-of-leftism-n2536798
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Over the last decade, America has moved drastically to the left. Not only are more people on the left than ever before, the left is further left than it’s ever been. This radical brand of progressivism has come to be known as “leftism”—an extreme yet increasingly dominant segment of the political spectrum. At the same time, America has grown more secular. According to Pew, “religious nones” are rapidly growing in number. These “nones” are most concentrated among millennials: 36% of millennials are religiously unaffiliated. Millennials happen to also be America’s most politically progressive generation. This probably isn’t a coincidence, especially since the same trends have occurred in a similar way in other parts of the world, such as Europe. While correlation doesn’t prove causation, politics and religion are so closely related that it’s hard to believe the simultaneous popularization of extreme leftism and secularism is insignificant.)

 

NUMBERS USA
— Republicans in Congress Cut a Deal to Double H-2B Guest Workers
https://www.numbersusa.com/news/republicans-congress-cut-deal-double-h-2b-guest-workers

(FROM THE ARTICLE: NumbersUSA Director of Government Relations told Breitbart: I don’t ever recall seeing a formal agreement between Congressional staff and employers to draft legislation to increase employers’ access to cheap, foreign labor….Donald Trump won the White House by running on a pro-American-worker immigration message, but his party lost control of the House during the midterms by abandoning that message. This agreement is evidence that Republicans haven’t learned from their recent election losses.)

https://www.fedsmith.com/2018/11/30/federal-employees-warned-not-resist-trump-administration-duty/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: One agency that gained particular attention was the Environmental Protection Agency since it was the target of numerous budget cuts by the Trump administration. FOIA lawsuits were filed seeking evidence of the existence of a “deep state” within the EPA, and the agency even was conducting its own investigation into whether employees were sending encrypted text messages after news reports surfaced saying it was taking place within the agency.)

BELLEVILLE NEWS DEMOCRAT
— OUTSTANDING: Activist voices opposition to legal Illinois marijuana sales – AP
https://www.bnd.com/news/state/illinois/article222349210.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: An opponent to legal marijuana in Illinois says it will allow white corporate exploitation of minority customers. Chicago activist the Rev. Gregory Seal Livingston on Wednesday called the effort to take over a lucrative illegal market “a gangsta move worthy of Al Capone.” He added “profit is the motive,” in legalizing the drug. Illinois has already decriminalized the possession of small amounts of marijuana. Livingston was joined in voicing opposition to legal marijuana sales by members of Healthy and Productive Illinois. That is a group that opposes legalization and is supported by Smart Approaches to Marijuana, a national anti-cannabis organization. Gov. Bruce Rauner signed legislation this summer that expands medical marijuana use to people prescribed opioids. The move increased the number of medical marijuana users by more than 46,000 patients. Democrat governor-elect J.B. Pritzker has said he hopes to legalize cannabis soon after he takes office.)

They further stress that I am no longer a TAPROOT Republicans of Illinois chairman, Wheaton Chamber of Commerce Government Affairs Committee member, Illinois Center Right Coalition Steering Committee, American Association of Political Consultants Midwest Chapter board member, GAO employee, etc. They stress that virtually all MTRCC members side with them against me. Those who dominate the MTRCC a) reject planks in the Republican Party platform and/or the Illinois Republican Party platform and work against those like me who support those planks, b) reject the MTRCC resolution against video gambling and work against those like me who support that resolution, c) focus on destroying those like me who they cannot manipulate/dominate, d) were defendants in lawsuits that I have filed, and/or e) are operatives or dupes for the aforesaid.

ILLINOIS POLICY INSTITUTE
— ILLINOIS PASSES STATE LAW GIVING PENSION BOOST TO ONE CHICAGO ALDERMAN – Vincent Caruso (DIERSEN: My Democrat GAO superiors, supervisors, coworkers, and subordinates were furious that when I transferred from IRS to GAO in 1980 when I was 31 years old, I brought with me almost 12 years of Civil Service Retirement System (CSRS) credit – almost 9 years that worked for IRS 1971-1980 and almost 3 years that I worked for the Post Office 1966-1969. They were beyond furious that while I worked for the Post Office part-time, I earned full-time CSRS credit. The aforesaid made me eligible for GAO’s $25,000 buyout and early retirement offer in 1993 when I was 45 years old. Overwhelmingly, those who GAO hires have no job-related work experience, let alone experience working for other federal agencies. GAO audits IRS and the Post Office.)
https://www.illinoispolicy.org/illinois-passes-state-law-giving-pension-boost-to-one-chicago-alderman/

(FROM THE ARTICLE: State lawmakers overrode Gov. Rauner’s veto of a bill that allows one former firefighter serving as a Chicago alderman to credit his political salary toward a more lucrative fire pension. The pension boost will also apply to future aldermen with a history of fire department work.)

https://www.breitbart.com/politics/2018/11/28/gops-h-2b-expansion-gives-business-unlimited-supply-of-foreign-workers/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Republican lawmakers are looking to slip the more than doubling of the H-2B visa program into a last-second spending bill that is expected to be passed before the new year. In total, there are roughly 1.5 million foreign workers in U.S. college-graduate jobs, plus at least 300,000 blue-collar or manual labor jobs. Meanwhile, there are five million Americans who are not in the labor force who want a job with more than 500,000 Americans saying they are discouraged by their job prospects. Every year, America’s working and middle class have their wages reduced by an inflow of more than 1.5 million mostly low-skilled foreign workers who are admitted to the country. This importation of illegal and legal foreign workers has left the country’s bottom line of workers with stagnant wages since the 1970s and forces them to compete with foreign workers for blue-collar jobs.)

Every year, as the purchasing power of my CSRS, SS, and RMD drops, the more angry that I am a) against my Democrat superiors and b) against those who side with my Democrat superiors.)

Per Wikipedia “1972 was the last year for chrome bumpers at both front and rear, the vacuum actuated pop-up windshield wiper door, as well as the removable rear window common to all 1968-72 coupes. The key activated anti-theft alarm system became standard. The increasingly popular choice of an automatic transmission was installed in most Corvettes for the first time, with nearly 54 percent so equipped. This year SAE net measurement for horsepower was now utilized (away from the previous SAE gross standard), and was largely responsible for the much lower engine output figures such as the 200 hp (149 kW) rating on the standard 350 cu in (5.7 L) motor.”)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: MY BROTHER-IN-LAW recently acquired his dad’s well-preserved 1982 Chevrolet Corvette, which he drove to Thanksgiving dinner. It being a holiday, we even let him park it in the driveway. The ’82 Corvette—the last of the third-generation (C3) design—is perhaps the least-loved model-year of all, due to the fact that these wildly fast-looking cars were so shockingly slow and underpowered. Trapped inside that wasp-waisted fiberglass bod is a 5.7-liter V8 wheezing out a mere 200 hp due to its crude emissions-control plumbing. The 1982 Corvette is that zoologically unlikely thing, a sexy slug.)

REAL CLEAR POLITICS
— The Perfidy of Illinois’ Public Payrolls – Steve Cortes (DIERSEN: I worked part-time for the Park Forest Post Office 1966-1969.)
https://www.realclearpolitics.com/articles/2018/11/26/the_perfidy_of_illinois_public_payrolls_138742.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: I grew up in Park Forest, Ill., a working-class suburb of Chicago. In my youth, Park Forest was pleasantly middle-class — a solid community of well-kept lawns, strong churches, and active sports. Unfortunately for my hometown, times have been tough over the years, reflected by a jobless rate about twice the national one and a poverty rate 43 percent higher than the state of Illinois average. As a consequence, Park Forest has lost almost a third of its peak population of 30,000 since the 1970s. But like many such struggling communities, one class of people has found a way to prosper: public employees. Recently, Fox affiliate Channel 32 and Open the Books detailed the exorbitant pay package for part-time interim school Superintendent Joyce Carmine. She retired in 2017 making $398,000 annually, the highest-paid superintendent in Illinois, in a community where the median household income is $44,000. She will receive, courtesy of taxpayers, a pension of just under $300,000 for the rest of her life. Adding insult to injury, the school district hired this retiree back as a consultant at the rate of $1,200 per day for a total of 100 days, bringing her pay this year to $419,000 total for part-time work. Given the modest $75,000 median home price in Park Forest, her salary equates to 5.5 home purchases…per year.)

https://blogs.edweek.org/edweek/finding_common_ground/2018/11/why_are_we_so_uninformed_we_dont_read_what_we_share.html

In fact, this Forbes Magazine article cites research that shows that 59% of us share articles we never read. . .The reality seems to be that people don’t read the articles they share because they care less about the content of the article and more about what sharing the article does for them.)

How much money in the form of increased taxes are anti-Trumps in the aforesaid going to make you pay to give illegals “free stuff?”)
http://www.bostonherald.com/news/columnists/howie_carr/2018/11/howie_carr_asylum_caravans_future_democrats_dream_of_life_in_land
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Thanksgiving’s over, so now it’s back to covering the ongoing invasion — I mean, the asylum caravan — on the southern border of the United States. Invasion — that’s how the lawless mobs seeking the eternal gravy train are described by both the president of the U.S. and the mayor of Tijuana, where the hordes are currently getting drunk and creating their own local crime wave while massing for the upcoming big crossing. It’ll be like the 49ers, or the Sooners, only this mob won’t be looking for gold or land. They’ll be sprinting toward the welfare offices of the gringos. Everything free in America! Proudly waving the flags of the hellhole countries that they claim “persecuted” them, the vast majority of these invaders will end up on the dole, voting Democrat to protect their handouts, just like the tens of millions who preceded them to the Land of the Free (Stuff). We are told the “Dreamers” are the best of the illegal immigrants. Yet according to a Harvard researcher, even 74 percent of them are indigent wards of the state. Where do the working classes of America go to get “asylum” from the millions of foreign criminals swarming across the border? Speaking of asylum, there’s interesting local news this week about some infamous “asylum” seekers, i.e., welfare recipients. Remember the Tsarnaev brothers, Muslim mass murderers from the Third World? These terrorists came here for “asylum,” lived in Section 8 housing, flaunted their EBT cards, gamed college scholarships and MassHealth benefits and finally expressed their gratitude by murdering their American benefactors. Now the lawyers for the younger Tsarnaev fiend have filed briefs reiterating what we already knew — that the older brother, Tamerlan “Speedbump” Tsarnaev, celebrated the 10th anniversary of 9/11 back in 2011 by slitting the throats of three Americans in Waltham — Jewish Americans. “Committing jihad,” as one of the other terrorists is quoted as saying in the court filing. Of course, not all invaders participating in the “fundamental transformation” of America want to commit jihad. Some just want to commit crimes, because they know nothing will happen to them when they do. Consider Luis Rodrigo Perez, a Dreamer, age 23, illegal immigrant from Mexico. His dream was to murder Americans, and this month he has succeeded beyond his wildest dreams, thanks to the fact that New Jersey refused to hold him on an ICE detainer when he was jailed on domestic violence charges. Not only did New Jersey Democrats not honor the feds’ detainer, they didn’t even tell ICE when they cut him loose. Days later, the career criminal was in Springfield, Mo., accused of murdering three Americans. Two were heard begging for their lives. He allegedly wounded two others before finally being collared. Last week a video went viral of a Mexican illegal immigrant in Arkansas shooting at cops. Luis Cabos-Cenabio had two previous arrests during the Obama years, but the Democrats decided he should remain in the country, on welfare. America wasn’t always like this. Once we were a sovereign nation. We had borders, and everyone had to obey the law, not just taxpayers, citizens and legal immigrants. But something happened. Fifty-five years ago today, John F. Kennedy was buried. With JFK’s murder, something happened to the American psyche, at least the Democrats’ psyche. Eighteen months later, at the behest of Ted Kennedy, the Democrats passed the Immigration Reform Act of 1965. The floodgates opened, and the slaughter began. Now the Democrats demand ever more of what’s destroying this country — illegal immigration. Lee Harvey Oswald, or whoever killed JFK, has a lot to answer for.)

Black, white, Hispanic, Christian, non-Christian working side by side for 18 months to help form their values for the rest of their lives – before being brainwashed by college intellectuals, gangs, imams and other bigots. 2. Stop the massive immigration to give us time to fix things. 3. Return to pay-as-you-go for college. Make students work for a college education. 4. Recognize this division for what it is and ignore all the other demonization against politicians by the other party or by fake news media. The media hide this root cause of our divisions. Politicians refuse to discuss it.)

Ever-increasingly, non-Whites talk and act like they agree with Democrats.
https://www.nytimes.com/2018/11/22/us/white-americans-minority-population.html

(FROM THE ARTICLE: The graphic was splashy by the Census Bureau’s standards and it showed an unmistakable moment in America’s future: the year 2044, when white Americans were projected to fall below half the population and lose their majority status. The presentation of the data disturbed Kenneth Prewitt, a former Census Bureau director, who saw it while looking through a government report. The graphic made demographic change look like a zero-sum game that white Americans were losing, he thought, and could provoke a political backlash. So after the report’s release three years ago, he organized a meeting with Katherine Wallman, at the time the chief statistician for the United States. “I said ‘I’m really worried about this,’” said Dr. Prewitt, now a professor of public affairs at Columbia University. He added, “Statistics are powerful. They are a description of who we are as a country. If you say majority-minority, that becomes a huge fact in the national discourse.”)

Needless-to-say, if I ran for any kind of government or political office, my opponents would follow Hebreard’s lead and call for a) cutting, if not eliminating, my Civil Service Retirement System pension, b) cutting, if not eliminating, my Social Security and Medicare, and c) cutting, if not eliminating, my federal health, dental, and vision insurance subsidies.)

While he will be new to the office if results hold up, Hebreard is not at all new to the Forest Preserve District of DuPage County. The 41-year-old Downers Grove native has worked for the district for the past 13 ½ years, including the past 10 as a senior ranger. “As a park ranger, we’re on the front lines with residents and users, so we get a very good idea of what people want and what’s needed,” Hebreard said.

Joshua Partlow and Josh Dawsey (DIERSEN: What if many thousands of U.S. citizens formed caravans seeking refuge status and attempted to invade Canada, Mexico, and other foreign countries? They would shout that they are poor and that they are poor because they are being discriminated against and oppressed by the United States, and especially discriminated against and oppressed by individuals, organizations, companies, municipalities, townships/wards, counties, and states that are Trump supporters, Protestant, conservative, patriotic, Republican, American, White, male, older, rich, gun owners, draft avoiders, German American, and those whose ancestors have been in America for a long time.)

Because members of the aforesaid groups want dependency on government, dependency on charity, LGBTQ activity, abortion, mass/illegal immigration, abolition of the First and Second Amendments, booze, gambling, pot, and other vices, patronage, political affiliation discrimination, revere discrimination, age discrimination, retaliation, and even worse things, should Republicans promise to give them the aforesaid?

(FROM THE ARTICLE: Hyde-Smith’s campaign did not respond to a request for comment. On Tuesday night, the Associated Press reported that Hyde-Smith had apologized for her “public hanging” comment, saying there was “no ill will.” “I’ve never been hurtful to anyone,” Hyde-Smith said in a debate against Espy, according to the AP. “This comment was twisted. It was turned into a weapon to be used against me.” . . . At the White House on Tuesday, before leaving for Florida, President Donald Trump said that Hyde-Smith’s comment about attending a public hanging was made “in jest” and she “feels bad” about it. He went on to predict that she will still win the Mississippi runoff against Espy.)

POLITICO ILLINOIS
— Call it a second blue wave. With mail-in ballots finally counted in Lake County, Democrat Mary Edly-Allen defeated Republican state Rep. Helene Miller Walsh. It was one of four races to swing from red to blue Monday, two weeks after the general election. In the Lake County Sheriff’s race, Democrat John Idleburg defeated incumbent Republican Mark Curran. Because just 137 votes separate the candidates, Curran is expected to ask for a recount. . .Lake County is considered a battleground area. So everyone has a view on why it’s swinging more left in this election cycle. Were voters pushed there by President Donald Trump’s rhetoric? One Democratic campaign strategist credits J.B. Pritzker’s investment of millions of dollars in mail ballots for giving Edly-Allen and other Lake County races a boost. “Those down-ballot races are won on the margins and being able to have that program and money taken care of from the top of the ticket is huge,” he said. A GOP lawmaker grumbles that it was Gov. Bruce Rauner’s negatives that pulled Republican candidates down in Lake County. And a Democratic observer says those anti-Mike Madigan ads back-fired. – SHIA KAPOS and ADRIENNE HURST

— Eight men are suing retailer Saks Fifth Avenue, alleging that its New York City outlets discriminated against them on grounds of race and age – Ryan J. Farrick (DIERSEN: During the 1980s, and 1990s, GAO discriminated against all its employees in its Chicago office a) who were Republican, White, male, and/or non-veteran and b) who had not made GS-13 (currently $96,403) by age 25, GS-14 (currently $113,920) by age 30, GS-15 (currently $134,000) by age 35, and Senior Executive Service (currently $164,200) by age 40. None of the aforesaid employees joined the agency-wide class action lawsuit that charged GAO with reverse discrimination, age discrimination, and retaliation like I did. Instead, they “cut deals” with GAO to keep their jobs. Those deals included a) forcing me to retire in 1997 when I was 49 years old, b) giving me unfair performance expectations and appraisals, c) always ranking me in the bottom half of my coworkers for pay-for-performance purposes, d) not promoting me beyond GS-13, e) getting rid of my mentor in 1987, f) keeping me off audits of IRS, and g) forcing me to take a $19,203 (26%) pay cut in today’s dollars to transfer from IRS to GAO in 1980.)

https://capitolfax.com/2018/11/20/the-democrats-vote-by-mail-juggernaut/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The overwhelming success of the Democrats’ vote-by-mail program is one of the least-covered stories of this election year. In 1994, the Democrats lost 13 House seats by something like 2,000 votes. Lots of races are won and lost at the margins and the Democrats essentially had the vote-by-mail field to themselves. So, as the Republicans talk about what they can do differently in 2020, a solid VBM program should be at or near the top of their list.)

— The way forward
https://capitolfax.com/2018/11/20/the-way-forward/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: I just don’t think that much of anything is going to change between now and 2020, when President Trump is likely to be on the ballot for reelection. The suburbs are gonna be brutal yet again for Republicans. They should focus mostly on Downstate (where the President will help), while doing the best they can to defend suburban incumbents and make an effort at picking off some of the fluke Democratic winners. Start early, work hard and smart and hold Gov. Pritzker to his promise to veto a redistricting map that isn’t fairly drawn and then help make sure his veto isn’t overridden by Democratic super-majorities. Also, find a way to get Dick Uihlein back on the same page. With Rauner and his checkbook making an exit, these primaries will only drain the resources necessary for the general election.)
