My father died suddenly in 1969 when he was 47 and I was 21. My mother had never attended high school and she had never worked outside of our home. After I earned a bachelor’s degree in management from NIU in August of 1970, I applied for and eventually got a financial hardship draft deferment to help support my mother and brother. I lived with my mother and brother in our Crete home and helped pay their bills until September of 1972 when I bought a new town home in University Park. I helped pay their bills with money that I earned a) working for the Firestone Store in Chicago Heights full-time 1970-1971 and part-time 1971-1972 and b) working IRS in Chicago during 1971 and then in Harvey.)

In my defense, first, none of my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes would have taken the jobs that I held because the pay was too low. Second, most, if not virtually all of them lack education, work experience, professional certifications, etc. required for the jobs. And third, I earned a) a job-related bachelor’s degree when I was 21 in 1970 and job-related master’s degrees when I was 27, 31, and 48, b) job-related professional certifications when I was 30, 32, 41, 45, 47, and 48, and c) a job-related professional license when I was 32.)

— What’s your why? Share it with your audience to sustain your future. – Jennifer Hefty
https://medium.com/trusting-news/whats-your-why-share-it-with-your-audience-to-sustain-your-future-a070669f317
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Why do we do it? Why do we work in a highly unstable career with no job security? Why do we cover stories so unimaginably terrible that sometimes all that’s left for us to do at the end of the day is cry? Why do we endure a high-pressure, fast-paced environment with little pay while at the same time dealing with a constant barrage of criticism from those we are trying to serve? (You’ve unfortunately probably heard some of this before: you’re a liberal rag; you’re in Politician X’s pocket; have you EVER even HEARD of a copy editor?) We do it because we care. We do it because our passion for our communities runs deep in our veins. We do it because we feel a responsibility to tell our neighbors’ stories, keep our cities safe and hold our governments accountable. We do it because we can’t imagine doing anything else. Historically, we haven’t been very good at telling the story of our why. But it’s one that is key to sustaining local journalism for years to come. As the news industry continues to face more layoffs, I’ve heard my colleagues ask, “So what can we do? How can we help ensure the future of our news organization?”)

— The Economy Is Strong. So Why Do So Many Americans Still Feel at Risk?

Hacker (DIERSEN: Are/were you “in power?” I have never been “in power.” But my critics/opponents are/were “in power.” They dominate/dominated Wheaton, Milton Township, DuPage County, Illinois, and the federal government. I should write a book about them, their operatives, and their dupes.)

— How the Rural-Urban Divide Became America’s Political Fault Line Such a conflict isn’t unique to the U.S., but the consequences are far-reaching here. – Emily Badger
https://www.nytimes.com/2019/05/21/upshot/america-political-divide-urban-rural.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: In the United States, where a party’s voters live matters immensely. That’s because most representatives are elected from single-member districts where the candidate with the most votes wins, as opposed to a system of proportional representation, as some democracies have. Democrats tend to be concentrated in cities and Republicans to be more spread out across suburbs and rural areas. The distribution of all of the precincts in the 2016 election shows that while many tilt heavily Democratic, fewer lean as far in the other direction. As a result, Democrats have overwhelming power to elect representatives in a relatively small number of districts — whether for state house seats, the State Senate or Congress — while Republicans have at least enough power to elect representatives in a larger number of districts. Republicans, in short, are more efficiently distributed in a system that rewards spreading voters across space. . .The median congressional district in America looks ideologically more Republican, Mr. Rodden finds (the median precinct in the chart also voted slightly Republican). And so Democrats have to find a way to win in those places, even as the progressive wing of the party is ascendant and lobbying for control of the party’s message. If Democrats hold on to some suburbs they recently flipped — a possibility as suburbia diversifies and as college-educated whites move toward the Democrats — Republicans could one day be as concentrated in rural areas as Democrats have been in cities. In that situation, one where Republicans pack their votes more tightly in rural America and the median suburban district becomes slightly Democratic, the urban party might actually start to benefit from geographic polarization. But there will still always be the Senate.)

At DuPage Care Center in Wheaton, 70% of the residents are Medicaid recipients. It also happens to be the special place where Judge Moy’s wife resides, Patricia Moy has battled Alzheimer’s disease for 8 years. The Care Center plans to make a host of renovations with the new funds. To honor their benefactor, the new name of the facility is the Kenneth Moy DuPage Care Center.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: If Illinois Governor J.B. Pritzker legalizes recreational marijuana, Clark County will ban dispensaries in their backyard. It was a unanimous decision made Friday morning by the Clark County Council. They plan to draft a resolution against the law. Some say by keeping the community together and on the same page, they’ve been able to keep illegal things out. That includes drugs and crime. News 10 spoke with members of the community who attended the meeting. They told us that Clark County has a low crime rate. A few spoke out. One man told us that no one in the community is wanting this legalization. “There’s no public outcry to legalize this stuff,” said Warren LeFever, a concerned citizen. This law has not been passed yet. County Council members say they are being proactive rather than reactive.)

https://www.foxnews.com/politics/illinois-republicans-push-to-turn-chicago-into-its-own-state
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The outlet reports that a resolution calling on Congress to declare Chicago America’s 51st state now has eight Republican co-sponsors in the state’s House, as well as growing support from conservative activists. Supporters of the move have noted that Chicago is where much of the state’s political power and money rests, and its politics are different than other more conservative parts of the state. The sponsor of the bill, state Rep. Brad Halbrook, said he supports the split due to differences on issues such as the Second Amendment and abortion. “Our traditional family values seem to be under attack at every angle,” Halbrook said, according to The State Journal-Register. “We are trying to drive the discussion to get people at the table to say these are not our values down here.”)

https://www.nydailynews.com/opinion/ny-oped-liberals-must-call-out-all-kinds-of-hate-20190514-i2byqjlwrvbh3hpka7ghvmta3m-story.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: So let’s imagine that a group of white children had been captured on video calling for the beheading of Jewish kids. My fellow liberals would be up in arms, demanding a broader investigation of the incident and penalties for the people involved. But when it’s Muslim children, doing the same thing? Meh. Witness our blasé reaction to last month’s news in my hometown of Philadelphia, where students were seen reciting a revolutionary anthem often used by Islamist groups. Reading from a prepared text, one girl in the group says, “We will chop off their heads, and we will liberate the sorrowful and exalted Al-Aqsa Mosque.” That’s a reference to a holy site in Jerusalem, revered by Muslims and Jews alike. The video was cited repeatedly on Fox News and other conservative media outlets but made barely a blip on CNN, MSNBC and other left-leaning venues.)

Attend a Milton Township Republican Central Committee meeting and watch them in action.)
https://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2019/may/10/college-democrats-buck-dccc-over-primary-challenge/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: House Democrats’ plans to blacklist rebellious strategists have sparked a backlash from a key party demographic, with dozens of chapters of College Democrats vowing to boycott the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee over its efforts to protect incumbents from primary challenges. In doing so, the boycotting chapters are finding a champion in popular freshman Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez of New York. They dissenting College Democrats chapters are objecting to the DCCC’s new rule refusing to do business with consultants, pollsters and other campaign workers who sign on to work for challengers seeking primary incumbent Democrats. The chapters are calling on their members not to donate to the DCCC, and to ask others also to withhold their support. “The rule would financially deter and greatly disadvantage vital new voices in our party, who are often younger and come from underrepresented and historically marginalized communities and identities,” the boycotters said in a statement. “This blacklist policy is undemocratic and antithetical to our values of inclusion and diversity.”)

https://www.expressnews.com/news/politics/texas_legislature/article/Group-that-funded-civil-war-in-Texas-GOP-launches-13805267.php
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Empower Texans made its name by using its political action committee’s deep pockets to threaten Republicans with aggressive primary challenges if they fell out of line with the conservative group’s hardline agenda. Then the 2018 elections happened. State records show the Tea Party-aligned group spent a record sum of more than $4 million last year — more than three times the amount it spent in the 2016 presidential year. Yet the majority of the candidates it endorsed, 26 out of 47, lost their primary, general and special elections. If its increasingly irate email blasts are any indication, that’s led to a frustrating legislative session for the group — one that’s often left it on the sidelines of major debates. The budget, with an additional $9 billion for public education and tax reform, is oversized, members complain. Property tax solutions offered up thus far are “not relief, just reform,” they scoff. Some conservative lawmakers are voicing the same critique. Texas Take: Get political headlines from across the state sent directly to your inbox)
