— Rauner: Illinois ‘won’t do very well’ under Republican health insurance plan – John Byrne and Kim Geiger  (DIERSEN: To turn them against me, my critics/opponents would have their operatives and their dupes shout at the 3 million on Medical in Illinois that because I am a federal retiree, my wife and I pay only $5,763 a year for $23,051 worth of health, dental, and vision insurance.  Sadly, most if not virtually all of the operatives and dupes who work for my critics/opponents have severe financial, health, and other problems and they appear to be on Medicaid.)
http://www.chicagotribune.com/news/local/politics/ct-bruce-rauner-rahm-emanuel-trump-healthcare-plan-met-20170307-story.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: In Illinois, about 3 million, or 1 of every 4, residents are on Medicaid, including about 650,000 people insured under Medicaid expansion. The state is getting an estimated $14.1 billion in federal money this year to support traditional Medicaid and Medicaid expansion. The House GOP plan would switch state reimbursement from a federal match to a limited amount of money, blowing a big hole in a state budget that’s already severely out of whack amid a record impasse in Springfield.)

SPRINGFIELD STATE JOURNAL REGISTER
— Senate frustrated by Rauner agencies’ budget-cut silence – AP  (DIERSEN: Obviously, during the 1980s and 1990s, when the Democrats who ran GAO were asked how GAO could/should cut its spending, those Democrats said get rid of GAO employees who were Republican, White, male, older, and/or non-veteran and especially those who did not make GS-13 (currently $94,610) by age 25, GS-14 (currently $111,801) by age 30, GS-15 (currently $131,508) by age 35, and Senior Executive Service (currently $161,900) by age 40.)
http://www.sj-r.com/news/20170307/senate-frustrated-by-rauner-agencies-budget-cut-silence
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Gov. Bruce Rauner’s administration is frustrating state senators by refusing to answer questions about where agencies could tighten their belts. Several Senate committees grilled agency directors Tuesday about spending cuts to deal with a multibillion-dollar deficit. The Democratic-controlled committees teamed up to put Rauner on the spot. They blame him for scuttling the Senate’s negotiated budget compromise last week.)

DAILY CALLER
— Gowdy: ‘Congress Is Much Better Equipped To Do Investigations Than Journalists Are’ – Christian Datoc  (DIERSEN: GAO is Congress’ investigative arm. I worked for GAO for almost 18 years, the last 11 years at the GS-13 Step 1-10 levels, currently, $94,610-$122,991. For 3 of those 18 years, I worked on audits of IRS. I passed the CPA and Certified Internal Auditor examinations on my first attempt.  I became a licensed CPA, Certified Fraud Examiner, Certified Government Financial Manager, Certified Financial Services Auditor, and a Forensic Accountant.)
http://dailycaller.com/2017/03/06/gowdy-congress-is-much-better-equipped-to-do-investigations-than-journalists-are-video/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Trey Gowdy criticized journalists reporting on alleged wire-tapping at Trump Tower in New York City, for relying on “anonymous sources” and “leaked information” during a Monday interview on Fox News. “I think Congress is much better equipped to do investigations than journalists are,” the South Carolina Republican told host bill Hemmer. “We can’t rely on anonymous sources. We can’t rely on leaked information, classified information which in and of itself is a crime.” “So with all due respect, to the reporters, I can’t cross-examine anonymous sources. You can’t even directly examine them. It’s a lot easier to write a news piece than it is to conduct an investigation.”  “What Congress needs is access to the witnesses, access to the documents and they need to understand we don’t run parallel, criminal investigations,” Gowdy continued. “We have a job to do, but it is not to investigate crime.”)

ILLINOIS FAMILY INSTITUTE
— Is White Privilege merely “Fake News?” – Oliver Perry (DIERSEN: My critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes have always hinted/implied/argued/shouted that I have always benefited immensely from White Privilege. They hint/imply/argue/shout that were it not for White Privilege, I never would have gotten the jobs that I did doing yard work, delivering newspapers, washing dishes, cleaning golf shoes, chipping slag, pumping gasoline, delivering mail, working on an automobile assembly line, working as a security guard, selling tires, automotive services, and major appliances, collecting delinquent federal taxes, and auditing federal agencies. But wait, they demonize, denigrate, and condemn all the aforesaid jobs as being so “bad” a) that they themselves would never take those jobs and b) that no minority, no female, no younger person, and no veteran should ever have to take those jobs.)
https://illinoisfamily.org/education/white-privilege-merely-fake-news/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The White Privilege concept claims that white people have certain invisible advantages. These advantages might merely be the result of acquiring income, education, or a residence in “nice” neighborhood. A Department of Education study states that “Black students are suspended and expelled at a rate three times greater than white students.” But was the study covering disparities in just one school? Or were some data gathered from schools in peaceful communities and other data from schools serving as substitute gang battlegrounds? Again, all of the details matter. An important part of the White Privilege concept is that you can’t lose it, avoid it, or fix it. You’re guilty of racism just by living. This is important for activists, for guilty people are easily manipulated, and you’ll keep doing whatever the accusers ask for. Finally, the White Privilege concept creates its own definition of racism. The common definition of racism judges a person on their thoughts, words and deeds. The White Privilege version says that you’re guilty because the accuser doesn’t like how society is currently structured. These advocates are moving the goalposts to encourage a political and social reengineering of America. So what do we know about White Privilege? It was invented to push people into accepting a socialist or Marxist society. You are accused of being racist, but not for anything you did. There is no way for you to fix this so-called racism. Your only hope is to join your accusers and reshape society to their plans. That sounds like “fake news” to me. It is guilt inducing without cause. Throw it out.)

http://money.cnn.com/2017/03/04/news/economy/h1b-visa-expedited-suspended-reaction/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: H-1B visas allow employers to bring in skilled foreign workers; about 85,000 will be given out this year. The visas are in high demand and given out by lottery. It can take six months or longer for an application to be reviewed. But the government announced Friday that, as of April 3, it will suspend the “premium processing” option, which ensures an application will be reviewed within 15 days. It costs $1,225. Trump has accused companies of abusing the H-1B program as a way to hire foreign workers who take jobs away from Americans, at lower salaries. The Trump administration says it’s doing away with quick-turn processing so it can sort through a large backlog of applications and try to “reduce overall H-1B processing times.”)

BRADENTON HERALD
— Progressives wants to silence foes – PATRICK NEYLAN, BRADENTON
http://www.bradenton.com/opinion/letters-to-the-editor/article136275133.html
(FROM THJE LETTER: After four years of national malaise, conservatives were devastated by the presidential election results of 2012 even though they recaptured the House and Senate. While this was a definite setback for Democrats, the incumbent president defiantly declared he had a phone and a pen to enact his vision for America. The progressive reaction to the presidential election of 2016 is something to behold. Unlike conservatives, they destroy property, hold hate rallies, and spread a blizzard of lies, vulgar invective and fake news. The left wants to silence or destroy anyone who doesn’t fit in. They use terms such as the subject is settled, the discussion is over or the subject is not politically correct. This helps their lemmings avoid the headache of independent thought or objective inquiry. The national debt is never mentioned because it might cause the naïve to realize that America cannot afford the benefits that we currently enjoy. World-citizen progressives lobby for open borders and amnesty; this will provide excellent competition for the race to the bottom in jobs, wages and benefits, etc. Progressives’ idea of multiculturalism supports anti-western cultures and laws which document (in writing) a terrible human rights and antidemocratic record. They call it diversity. Qualified conservative professionals have about a one in 14 chance of gaining employment in the news media or academia. Does that sound democratic to you? Before this bias destroys America, laws like Equal Employment Opportunity must be passed. Perhaps readers will notice that world-citizen progressives avoid addressing the economy, existing unenforced laws, patriotism, borders, security, debt control and time-honored ethics, etc. What do they really have in mind, not even their lemmings know?)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: Springfield- Dozens gathered on the steps of the Illinois State Capitol to show their support for President Donald Trump. “It’s time that America realizes that Trump is our president.” said Mel Cordani, a supporter. “I love him, and he is going to change America, and make it great again. I know that he has done so much already and I just wanted to be here to show him how much we love him.” said Doug Dukeman, another supporter. The crowd was filled with many local supporters, and three Illinois politicians came to show their support for President Trump. Senator Kyle McCarter (R)-Vandalia, Representative Reggie Phillips (R)-Charleston, and Representative Brad Halbrook (R)-Shelbyville, gave speeches to the crowd. “There is only 3 of us here, and it’s because it is important for us to know what we know is right. To support our president to let him know that Illinois is supporting our president, and they we need change in the state of Illinois.” said Rep. Reggie Phillips (R)-Charleston. Some of the attendees, like Shane Bouvet, know President Trump personally.. “He’s such a beautiful guy, and that’s what you see here in the crowd is beautiful. Who are patriotic, coming to support out president and show love for our country.” he said. “Donald  Trump is a president who loves all people. You see everyone who came out to support him and people who don’t support him, you know Donald Trump loves everyone. He cares about our country.” Many of Trump’s supporters spoke of his accomplishments since taking office in January. “He’s doing what he said he was going to do, and we want to be supportive of that effort for the first time, we actually have a president that is doing what he said he would do.” said Rep. Brad Halbrook, (R)-Shelbyville. “Mr. Trump has done more already in he short time than what others have done in eight years.” added Dukeman. For many of the supporters, they hope that President Trump will be able to help to fix the trouble that Illinois is in. “We need people to have respect and want to work again in Illinois and that is a federal issue, and I think Trump is going to start answering.” Said Rep. Phillips. This was just one of many March 4 Trump rallies happening nationwide.)

NEW YORK TIMES
— A Different Bargain on Race – Ross Douthat  (DIERSEN: Are you White?  How long have your ancestors been in America?  How much did you benefit from discrimination against Blacks by your parents, by your grandparents, by your great grandparents, and by the rest of your ancestors?  My critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes a) have always hinted/implied/argued/shouted that I benefited tremendously from discrimination against Blacks by my parents, by my grandparents, by my great grandparents, and by the rest of my ancestors. My critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes stress that my ancestors have been in America since 1844.)
https://www.nytimes.com/2017/03/04/opinion/sunday/a-different-bargain-on-race.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: So, this week’s immodest proposal: Abolish racial preferences in college admissions, phase out preferences in government hiring and contracting, eliminate the disparate-impact standard in the private sector, and allow state-sanctioned discrimination only on the basis of socioeconomic status, if at all. Then at the same time, create a reparations program — the Frederick Douglass Fund, let’s call it — that pays out exclusively, directly and one time only to the proven descendants of American slaves. What would it pay out? Reparations advocates talk in trillions, which would take this already-unrealistic proposal into the realm of the utopian. But right now, giving every single African-American $10,000, perhaps in a specially-designed annuity, would cost about $370 billion, modest relative to supply-side tax plans and single-payer schemes alike. The wealth of the median black household in the United States was $11,200 as of 2013; a $10,000 per-person annuity would more than double it. In so doing it would hardly eliminate racial disadvantage, but then again neither has 50 years of affirmative action. What it would offer is a meaningful response to an extraordinary injustice, but a response that does not involve permanent discrimination. There is no clear or easy path to becoming a multiracial nation that isn’t divided politically by race. But reparations for the descendants of slaves today, rather than affirmative action for nonwhites forever, might be a better path than the one we’re on right now.)

In 1980, after working for IRS for almost 9 years, the last 5 1/2 years of which at the GS-12 Step 1-5 levels, currently $79,563-$90,173, I transferred to GAO. Because I was an old (31) non-veteran White male Republican who complained about political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, age discrimination, and retaliation, the Democrats who ran GAO forced me to accept an $18,847 pay cut in today’s dollars to transfer from IRS to GAO.  To justify that pay cut, they ignored the fact that much of what I had done for IRS was very similar to what I would be doing for GAO including fact gathering, interviewing, summarizing and analyzing data, investigating, report writing, and developing recommendations.  My Democrat GAO superiors, supervisors, coworkers, and subordinates were furious when I passed the Certified Internal Auditor examination on my first attempt in 1981 and that I became a licensed CPA in 1981.)

Schielke did not answer the question directly, speaking instead about how Batavia’s immigrant history and how it adopted a fair housing ordinance decades ago and is an integrated community. Dinwiddie said the city should not become a sanctuary city because it would put a burden on police, and Salvati said he didn’t know if he would “put the onus” on police to “be out there looking proactively.”)

They plan to gather two hours before the pro-Trump group so the marchers will see the already gathered crowd and move on before they even get started. “We hope they’re demoralized,” Lynch said. “We hope they drive on by. We hope they decide to hold their rally somewhere else.” Lynch says he doesn’t promote violence or vandalism, but noted that hate speech could incite some of the protestors. “We’re not going to let a fringe group of bigots come in and target our immigrant and local communities,” he said.)

http://www.positivelynaperville.com/2017/03/04/naperville-mayor-will-present-state-city-address-march-20/70236
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The 2017 State of the City Address hosted by the Naperville Area Chamber of Commerce (NACC) will be held on Monday, March 20, at Embassy Suites Chicago-Naperville, 1823 Abriter Court in Naperville.  This luncheon event is presented by BMO Harris Bank N.A. The address serves as an inspiring recap of the year’s events.  The discussion will highlight the monumental progression of the area’s growth including new and existing businesses.  Additionally, the address will turn an eye toward the future, as highlighting a number of programs and initiatives scheduled for the coming year. The NACC has hosted the State of the City Address for the past 33 years for the Naperville community starting with Mayor Peg Price. “The Naperville Area Chamber of Commerce plays an important role in success and retention of businesses in our region,” said Nicki Anderson, NACC President/CEO.  “Our partnership with the City and Naperville Development Partnership are crucial to the strength and viability of a successful business climate.” The Mayor also uses the program as a time to not only to recognize Naperville’s accomplishments, but also the people who made it possible.  The State of the City Address honors city officials and their years of service to the community. “The State of the City address is an important venue to showcase the City’s commitment to economic growth, efficient government and serving our community well,” Mayor Steve Chirico stated in the news release.  “This year’s address will celebrate our shared accomplishments, provide a roadmap for the year to come and inspire our businesses to continue making Naperville the premier location to live, work and play in the region.”)

— Silicon Valley’s dirty little secret: The way it treats women – Jessica Guynn and Marco della Cava  (DIERSEN: How does/did your employer(s) treat women?  All my federal employers were always under tremendous pressure from Democrat politicians to give preference to women. Consequently, all my federal superiors, supervisors, coworkers, and subordinates who were women were given preference. To give preference to one group is to discriminate against another group. Therefore, to give preference to women is to discriminate against men.  My federal employers were GAO 1980-1997, IRS 1971-1980, and Post Office 1966-1969.)

CHICAGO SUN-TIMES
— Staying home from New Trier – Shia Kapos
http://chicago.suntimes.com/news/kapos-making-political-oratory-great-again/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: New Trier High School’s seminar day examining civil rights has gone off without a hitch. No numbers yet on attendance, but the auditorium seating was nearly filled. At least one family, however, chose not to send their student to school. Robert Blackwell Jr., a Chicago entrepreneur and friend and supporter of President Barack Obama, says his daughter stayed home. While the school took some heat from conservative parents who thought the curriculum leaned too far left, Blackwell worried the content just wasn’t appropriate. He lives on the South Side and his daughter lives on the North Shore with her mom. Blackwell said negative images were being reinforced, and he pointed to a session called “Blackenomics 101,” based on a rap song that uses the N-word. “This session tells white teenagers that blacks need to express themselves through vulgarity and violence,” he said. Blackwell is chairman of EKI-Digital, which helps companies monetize technology investments, and he’a chairman of Killerspin table-tennis company. Keynote speakers were Colson Whitehead, who wrote “The Underground Railroad,” and Andrew Aydin, who with U.S. Rep. John Lewis, co-authored “March.”)

To postpone/avoid being gotten rid of by anti-Whites, more and more and more Whites are becoming anti-White. Should I write a book about the leading White anti-Whites in Wheaton, in Glen Ellyn, in Milton Township, in DuPage County, in Illinois, and in America?)

— Here’s What Wrong With The Claim That Female Reporters Make 26% Less Than Male Counterparts – Andrew Follett  (DIERSEN: What percent of those organizations and companies that employ reporters are Democrat – 97%, 98%, 99+%)
http://dailycaller.com/2017/02/28/heres-what-wrong-with-the-claim-that-female-reporters-make-26-less-than-male-counterparts/
(FROM THEARTICLE: The study’s claim ignores much of its own data.  Its data clearly suggests the salary gap is because female journalists are, on average, six years younger than their male colleagues, and have 5.3 less years of work experience. They are also less likely to work full time and hold management positions. . .The study did find the average after-tax income of a male journalist in the country is $55,552, while the average female journalist earns $44,104. This statistic on its own can be misleading without the context of the work experience gap.)

— Gov. Rauner Says He’s Working With White House To Curb Violence – Derrick Blakley  (DIERSEN: Yes, but what about also working with the White House to create good jobs in Illinois; to end the promotion of dependency on government and on charity in Illinois; to end sanctuary cities in Illinois; to send the illegals in Illinois back to their motherlands; to end abortion in Illinois; to end the promotion of LGBTQ activity in Illinois, that is, end the destruction of the traditional family in Illinois; to end the promotion of vices in Illinois including booze, pot, and gambling; to end patronage in Illinois, that is, end political affiliation discrimination in Illinois; to end race and gender based preference giving in Illinois, that is, end reverse discrimination in Illinois; to end age discrimination in Illinois; to end further erosion of the Second Amendment in Illinois; etc.?)
http://chicago.cbslocal.com/2017/02/27/gov-rauner-says-hes-working-with-white-house-on-violence-in-illinois/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Gov. Bruce Rauner contends he’s working with the Trump White House to attack crime in Illinois.  Just who he’s working with he won’t say, and Rauner continues to try to distance himself from the new administration. CBS 2 Political Reporter Derrick Blakley has more. President Trump met with at least 46 of the nation’s governor’s today, fellow Republican Rauner wasn’t there. Rauner returned to Chicago Sunday night, after spending the weekend huddling with other Republican governors. “I have personally been in communication with members of the Trump administration on the violence issue — the folks who are developing the policy,” he says. Unclear is what policy that is. Rauner would not elaborate, nor say who he met from the Trump administration. What’s clear is Rauner still hasn’t met with President Trump, unlike Mayor Rahm Emanuel and a host of other governors. Because he wasn’t with Trump on Monday, Rauner missed another trump verbal barrage directed at the state’s biggest city. It’s no secret Rauner is not exactly fond of the president. He didn’t endorse him, skipped the inauguration, and refuses to even use the words “President” and “Trump” together. It’s fair to ask if avoiding Trump is helping Rauner. A new poll shows Rauner losing in 2018, to an un-named generic Democrat by about 15 points.)

ILLINOIS REVIEW
— RAUNER’S BOYCOTT OF WHITE HOUSE EVENT DOESN’T SET WELL WITH TRUMP SUPPORTERS
http://illinoisreview.typepad.com/illinoisreview/2017/02/rauner-.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Governor Rauner’s actions were noticed by Macoupin County’s GOP Chairman Terri Koyne, who said Rauner not attending the White House event was disrespectful, but not surprising. “Trump won Illinois in the Primary election – the Republican voters spoke,” she told Illinois Review. “If Rauner chooses to disrespect the voters, that is his choice.” In Koyne’s Macoupin County, more votes were cast for Trump in the General Election than any other presidential candidate – Republican or Democrat – in decades. “It seems by his actions that counties like mine don’t matter to the governor in his re-election strategy,” Koyne said. “It will be interesting to see if Rauner can help the lower offices in their races in Central/Southern Illinois in the next election as much as Trump did in this past election.” To be noted, those statewide races in November where GOP candidates were more closely aligned with Rauner than Trump didn’t turn out so well.)

WORLD NET DAILY
— ‘CENTURIES OF RELIGIOUS CONFLICT’ NOW ON U.S. SOIL ‘To leave would be like giving up on our Constitution’ – LEO HOHMANN  (DIERSEN: Ever-increasingly, Democrats make it clear that if you do not promote Islam, they will get rid of you.)
http://www.wnd.com/2017/02/centuries-of-religious-conflict-now-on-u-s-soil/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: After the Sterling Heights City Council agreed to settle a lawsuit with the U.S. Justice Department and allow a third mosque to be built in the city, this time right in the midst of a neighborhood populated by Christian refugees who escaped persecution from Islam, some residents said they planned to move out of the city. Sterling Heights, Michigan, is home to the nation’s second largest community of Chaldean and Assyrian Christians, many of them coming directly from Iraq where their families were the victims of a genocide by ISIS, al-Qaida and other Islamic militants over the past 50 years. While understandable, picking up and moving in the wake of a mosque approval is exactly the wrong response, say Michigan activists. “This is our city and our country and our community,” said Tom Mitchell, a 52-year resident of Sterling Heights who says the council’s vote gave him renewed determination to help support his Chaldean neighbors. “To leave would be like giving up on our Constitution, giving up to a culture that doesn’t believe in our Constitution and our laws. I tell people to stick it out, get more active but don’t move out.” Mitchell is a former member of the Army’s 82nd Airborne unit. “I never surrender. I’m a veteran,” he said. “God, family, country, that’s where I stand.” But real-estate transactions are often a fact of life when a mosque gets built in a previously non-Muslim area. The newly released book, “Stealth Invasion,” documents homes being snatched up by Middle-Eastern buyers in certain neighborhoods of Idaho and Minnesota after the U.S. State Department began sending heavy numbers of Islamic refugees to those areas. The same trend has been seen in Warren, which borders Sterling Heights in Macomb County, Michigan.)
