DNA INFO
— ‘Open Up Your Homes’ To DREAMers, Says Rahm, Who Will Host In His House – Alex Nitkin  (DIERSEN: Ever-increasingly, Democrats treasonously encourage people to come to America illegally, to stay in America illegally, and to bring others to America illegally.)
https://www.dnainfo.com/chicago/20170129/ohare/rahm-emanuel-ohare-protest-trump-executive-order-travel-restrictions
(FROM THE ARTICLE: O’HARE — Mayor Rahm Emanuel’s name evoked boos and hisses from the hundreds of demonstrators outside at O’Hare Airport when a speaker mentioned his name. Few realized he had joined them. The mayor ducked into the airport’s international terminal Sunday, shook hands with volunteer attorneys and called on residents across the city to host refugees and immigrants in their homes as an act of defiance to President Donald Trump’s restrictive executive order. Trump’s order, signed on Friday, suspends all U.S. refugee resettlement for 120 days, bars Syrian refugees indefinitely, and blocks travel into the U.S. for 90 days for citizens of Iran, Iraq, Libya, Somalia, Sudan, Syria and Yemen. It will also stop green card holders from those seven countries from entering the U.S. again if they travel abroad. On Saturday, after more than a thousand protesters marched inside and outside the terminal, Emanuel released a statement saying the travel restrictions had “tarnished America’s standing as a beacon of hope for the free world.” The next evening, he bypassed the crowds and made for the dozens of volunteer lawyers who had set up a makeshift office at a McDonald’s inside the terminal. He huddled and shook hands with organizers, asking which law firms they represented. Some volunteers held up signs in Arabic and Farsi offering counsel to travelers who had been detained, while others huddled around laptops drafting writs of habeas corpus on their behalf. “I want to thank all the lawyers here who are assuring people that when they come, what they’re met with is support, security and safety,” Emanuel said. “That’s who we are, and that is what we’re doing.” Meanwhile, officials from the city’s aviation department, which runs operations at the airport, dropped off a shipment of coffee and pastries for the lawyers. While Emanuel was at the airport, his office released a statement saying he would host immigrants in his home who had been granted legal status under the DREAM Act. Trump has so far laid off the legislation, which outlines a path to citizenship for immigrants who enter the country illegally as young children. “At a moment of unease and vulnerability for so many, let’s come together as a city and put action behind our words and the values we hold dear as a welcoming city,” the statement read. Emanuel and the City Council last week affirmed Chicago’s status as a “sanctuary city,” which bars local law enforcement from helping federal officials identify or deport undocumented immigrants. Trump has threatened to withhold federal funding from the city over its status. Here is Emanuel’s statement: “One hundred years ago, the people of Chicago opened their hearts and their homes to my grandfather when he immigrated to this great city, fleeing the pogroms of Eastern Europe in search of freedom and opportunity. In that spirit, in the coming days my family and I will host DREAMers attending Chicago Public Schools and Chicago City Colleges for a meal, a conversation, and a recognition and celebration of all that unites us, rather than what divides us. I am asking every interested resident of the City of Chicago to join us by hosting a similar meal in your own homes and at restaurants in your own neighborhoods, or by sharing welcoming words through a phone call or email. At a moment of unease and vulnerability for so many, let’s come together as a city and put action behind our words and the values we hold dear as a welcoming city. Lets show the world that the City of Big Shoulders is also a city of big hearts.”)

— Google, in Post-Obama Era, Aggressively Woos Republicans – CECILIA KANGJA  (DIERSEN: What does Google think of you?  What does Google think of Dave Diersen and his GOPUSA ILLINOIS emails?)
https://www.nytimes.com/2017/01/27/technology/google-in-post-obama-era-aggressively-woos-republicans.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Few companies have been as intimately tied to the Democratic Party in recent years as Google. So now that Donald J. Trump is president, the giant company, in Silicon Valley parlance, is having to pivot. The shift was evident a day after Congress began its new session this month. That evening, about 70 lawmakers, a majority of them Republicans, were feted at the stately Smithsonian Arts and Industries Building, where they clinked champagne and bourbon glasses and posed for selfies with the 600 guests assembled in their honor. The event’s main host was not from the Republican establishment. Instead, the party was primarily financed and anchored by Google. “We’ve partnered with Google on events before, but nothing like this party,” said Alex Skatell, founder of The Independent Journal Review, a news start-up with a right-leaning millennial audience, which also helped host the event. “I’ve never heard of an event as big.”)

— From what I see, news outlets on the following draft list are overwhelmingly anti-Trump; do you agree?  Which news outlets would you add to the list and/or delete from list?  Trump supporters in Illinois should monitor the news outlets on the list for opposition research. The best way to do that is to read GOPUSA ILLINOIS emails. – Dave Diersen

January 29 Evening Edition

NBC5
— Illinois Gov. Bruce Rauner Attends Koch Brothers Donor Summit in California – Mary Ann Ahern  (DIERSEN: Rauner should say NO to potential donors who want him to promote mass/illegal immigration, LGBTQ activity, abortion, booze, pot, gambling, patronage, political affiliation discrimination, race based preference giving, gender based preference giving, age discrimination, abolition of the First and Second Amendments, and even worse things.)
http://www.nbcchicago.com/news/local/illinois-governor-bruce-rauner-trump-executive-order-412090203.html
(FROM THE THE ARTICLE: However, the seminar is also considered a chance for 2018 Republican candidates to meet potential donors. Led by billionaire brothers Charles and David Koch, the Koch network plans to spend up to $400 million on policy and political campaigns during the midterm cycle, according to several reports including from the Washington Post. This weekend marks the largest gathering of potential donors for Koch Industries, with more than 500 people in attendance. Only three governors joined the Palm Springs summit: Rauner, Wisconsin’s Scott Walker and Arizona’s Doug Ducey, along with five Republican U.S. senators.)

http://www.dailyherald.com/article/20170125/news/170129345/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: “We’re asking you to put on your Sherlock Holmes hats and investigate,” said presenter and Teen Librarian Alice Son. “Constantly play the devil’s advocate.” One evaluation method — which had an acronym that amused the crowd — was the CRAAP Test. It stands for currency, relevance, authority, accuracy and purpose — things a reader should consider. “There is a bias for certain sources, so consider both sides,” Son said. The presentation included discussions on reading news on social media and asking people to place different media outlets on a “political bias spectrum.” They encouraged people to read and evaluate articles before instantly sharing them online; to read stories on both side of the spectrum or something that challenges their opinions; to regularly clear the cookies from their internet browsers to prevent the same types of stories from showing up; and to fact-check information at credible websites like Snopes.com, Politifact.com and FactCheck.org. “It’s sad that libraries, and various other institutions, have to teach people how to protect themselves,” said attendee Ralph Blasko of Arlington Heights. “We are all being manipulated every day … we have to be wary of everything.” The library will host another presentation on the topic March 23, and similar events are being planned at other libraries around the suburbs.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: Media Matters asked for help building a “comprehensive” database of reporters who “get to ask” questions at the White House Wednesday, sending a series of bizarre tweets in which the heads of various journalists are circled in red ink. “[Media Matters] is going to try to maintain a comprehensive database of who gets to ask questions at press briefings,” senior fellow Matthew Gertz tweeted. “We need your help to ID some!” Gertz then began tweeting out image after image of reporters asking questions in the White House briefing room, describing the question asked in each one and asking followers to identify the reporter. Each one’s head is circled in red ink. “Who is this?” he tweeted, along with one of the photos. “On Monday he asked about the Women’s March on Washington and the March for Life.” . . .White House press secretary Sean Spicer has switched up the pecking order in the first few briefings, opting to give outlets such as The New York Post and Christian Broadcasting Network an opportunity to ask questions, in addition to the more traditionally favored networks and wires.)

In addition, I earned a) a job-related bachelor’s degree when I was 21 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 33.)
http://www.nbc-2.com/story/34308844/heres-how-much-obamas-pension-is-worth
(FROM THE ARTICLE: At noon on Friday, 55-year old Barack Obama became a federal retiree. His pension payment will be $207,800 for the upcoming year, about half of his presidential salary. Obama and every other former president also get seven months of “transition” services to help adjust to post-presidential life. The ex-Commander in Chief also gets lifetime Secret Service protection as well as allowances for things such as travel, office expenses, communications and health care coverage. All those extra expenses can really add up. In 2015 they ranged from a bit over $200,000 for Jimmy Carter to $800,000 for George W. Bush, according to a government report. Carter doesn’t get health insurance because you have to work for the federal government for five years to qualify. The pensions and other benefits were first created in 1958, when former President Harry Truman was experiencing financial trouble. The annual payments are currently the same as what cabinet secretaries earn in a given year, and those salaries are set by Congress. But the days of this kind of taxpayer support for ex-presidents may be numbered. Last year, the Republican Congress passed a bill that would have set a flat $200,000 a year in pension payments and capped other expenses at $200,000 a year per president. The cost of living increases for the pension would be tied to the same formula used to increase social security benefits. But that $400,000 could quickly disappear under the proposed law, which cuts the pension and expense payments by a dollar for every dollar that a former president earns above $400,000. So taxpayers are off the hook entirely once a president earns $800,000 a year. Given that most former presidents can earn significant incomes from speeches and writing books, it’s very possible that the taxpayer support of former executives could become a thing of the past. But Obama vetoed the legislation, telling Congress that he did so because the bill also would have terminated the salaries and benefits of former presidents’ staff, and made it harder for the Secret Service to protect former presidents. “If the Congress returns the bill having appropriately addressed these concerns, I will sign it,” he said. But the legislation never got back to his desk. The president’s salary is $400,000, but during the campaign President Trump said he would decline the pay.)

http://www.wsj.com/articles/in-retirement-its-save-now-or-pay-a-lot-later-1484908217
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Given a choice between satisfying our immediate needs and desires or focusing on the future, the here and now typically wins out. That impulse doesn’t bode well for retirement savings. The psychological tendency to prioritize the present over the future has troubling implications, especially in an era in which Social Security is underfunded and old-fashioned pension plans are falling by the wayside, leaving individuals increasingly responsible for creating their own retirement security. “Time, resources and attention are limited,” says Neil Lewis Jr., a Ph.D. candidate in social psychology at the University of Michigan and co-author of a recent study that examined ways to counteract the impulse to spend now instead of saving for retirement. “People allocate them to events that are pressing, rather than to events that may happen later.” . . . The bad news: The savings crisis is deepening as 52% of American households are at risk of being unable to maintain their standard of living in retirement, up from 45% in 2004, according to Boston College’s Center for Retirement Research. The center calculates a cumulative retirement savings shortfall of $6.4 trillion.)

http://www.chicagotribune.com/news/local/politics/ct-trump-inaugural-illinois-preview-met-0118-20170118-story.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Despite the boycott of Donald Trump’s inauguration by some congressional Democrats, Illinois will be well-represented at the event, as House members who are attending report strong demand for tickets to Friday’s swearing-in ceremony. By mid-January, Republican Rep. Peter Roskam of Wheaton had received nearly 700 requests for the 198 tickets his congressional office was given, spokesman David Pasch said. “We’ve been able to scrounge up more than 100 additional tickets from other offices,” Pasch said Wednesday, meaning about 300 people will be attending through Roskam’s office alone. Democratic Rep. Brad Schneider of Deerfield, who unlike some in his party plans to attend the ceremony, gave out about 150 of his tickets and was holding on to the rest for “any last-minute requests, which are still coming in,” spokesman Steven Kirsch said. . .The festivities for some Illinois visitors will begin Thursday night at the “Inaugural Heartland Ball,” put on by the Illinois State Society of Washington, D.C., at the Marriott Marquis hotel.

http://www.dailyherald.com/article/20170119/discuss/170118813/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: I read in the Jan. 16 Daily Herald about how the new Illinois Tollway’s Chief Operating Officer is a political and campaign veteran. This is the problem with Illinois. This is one of the reasons people are leaving the state. The endless story of political cronyism. Do you think just maybe somebody with a tollway background from within the agency or someone from another toll agency in the country might just do a better job in this position? At $155,000 a year, it’s not like we are getting any bargain here. Surely somebody better qualified could have been found.)

— A Big Drag: How Much Puffing In Illinois Costs Smokers – Kelly Bauer  (DIERSEN: I have never been a smoker.  While I worked for the federal government for almost 30 years, many, if not most of my Democrat superiors, supervisors, coworkers, and subordinates who worked the hardest against me were smokers.  Almost all of them were White, male, and/or older.  Many of them had severe health problems.)
https://www.dnainfo.com/chicago/20170117/downtown/big-drag-how-much-puffing-illinois-costs-smokers
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Smoking will cost you big time in Illinois.  The habit will cost a smoker an estimated nearly $1.8 million throughout his or her lifetime, making Illinois among the costliest states in the nation for users, according to a new study. The study from WalletHub looked at the out-of-pocket cost to smokers as well as financial opportunity cost (how much money smokers would have made by investing money instead of spending it on cigarettes), healthcare cost, income loss per smoke and other expenses. The study found smoking in Illinois will end up costing people more than $34,000 a year or $1.77 million over a lifetime of smoking for about 50 years. For a pack-a-day smoker, the habit can cost more than $2,700 per year just to buy cigarettes, the study found.)

The review released Tuesday by the Illinois Association of Regional Superintendents of Schools revealed that teachers call in more than 16,500 absences each week. School officials have trouble finding replacements for nearly 20 percent of them.)

http://www.wjbdradio.com/politics/2017/01/18/donald-trump-i-dont-like-tweeting
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Despite appearances to the contrary, President-elect Donald Trump says he isn’t a fan of tweeting. In an interview with Fox News slated to air Wednesday, Trump said he uses Twitter to defend himself against the “dishonest media.” “Look, I don’t like tweeting,” Trump told Fox & Friends co-host Ainsley Earhardt. “I have other things I could be doing. But I get very dishonest media, very dishonest press. It’s my only way that I can counteract.” He continued: “When people misrepresent me — because the press is very dishonest, unbelievably dishonest … When people misrepresent me, I have at least a way of saying it’s a false statement. If the press were honest, which is not, I would absolutely not use Twitter. I wouldn’t have to.”)

— Wheaton City Council approves facility for single moms at former Wheaton Inn  Facility to serve as many as 12 new and expectant single mothers – ERIC SCHELKOPF
http://www.mysuburbanlife.com/2017/01/18/wheaton-city-council-approves-facility-for-single-moms-at-former-wheaton-inn/a5r6lc4/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The Wheaton City Council on Jan. 17 voted 6-0 to approve plans for the former Wheaton Inn building at 301 W. Roosevelt Road to become a facility for new and expectant single mothers. The Clarendon Hills-based company Love From Above plans to offer a two-year transitional housing program for women 18 to 26 years old that will serve single mothers in DuPage County. The facility would serve as many as 12 women at any given time who find themselves in “crisis pregnancies,” Love From Above President and founder Yvonne Florczak-Seeman previously said. City Council members approved the plans contingent on the installation of landscaping for the property and the replacement of any required landscaping that has died or is dying. In addition, the facility will only be able to serve a maximum of 12 women at any given time. While Wheaton Mayor Michael Gresk said he would have preferred to have seen a commercial use for the building, “it’s good to see that building occupied.” “It’s an appropriate use,” he said. Council members previously asked if the facility would have to be licensed or regulated by the state. Greg Dose, attorney for the applicant, wrote a letter to the city stating the facility is not subject to regulation or licensing by the Department of Children and Family Services under the Illinois Child Care Act. In the letter, Dose said the facility will be the primary residence of the women. “While they reside there, it will be their home and the home of their infant and toddler children,” Dose said in the letter. “There will be no children on the premises other than those of the moms. Thus all child care that occurs on the premises will be home-based child care.” Dose said the facility is exempt from DCFS licensing and regulation because the children will not be apart from their parents. Wheaton’s city attorney has agreed with Dose’s opinion. As proposed, the women staying at the facility would have to be enrolled in college to participate in the program. This would be the company’s first facility, which will be called The Butterfly Garden…A Place for Healing and Transformation. The Wheaton Inn originally was built in 1987 and most recently was used as office space by an investment company that relocated to Downers Grove a few years ago. Council member Suzanne Fitch was absent from the meeting.)

— Donald Trump’s childhood home heads to auction  Home built by Trump’s father – KATHRYN VASEL
http://www.centralillinoisproud.com/news/donald-trumps-childhood-home-heads-to-auction/641550673
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The home has previously been listed on the market for as much as $1.65 million. The 2,500-square foot house is located in Jamaica Estates, a wealthy neighborhood in Queens. It has four full bathrooms, a library, finished basement and a two-car garage. To participate in the auction, potential bidders must pay $20 for due diligence information that includes a title report, the terms of sale, and a copy of the purchase and sale agreement. According to Misha Haghani, owner of Paramount Realty USA, the home was built by Trump’s father. “A property as prominent as this has intangible value that goes beyond just the real estate — it’s like art and that’s why an auction is the perfect platform in which to sell it,” he said in the December press release. In September, The Tonight Show host Jimmy Fallon asked the then-presidential nominee about the home being sold. “That is where I was born,” Trump said when Fallon showed him a photo of the home. “I had a really good childhood; oh that’s sad to look at that, I want to buy it.”)

Their efforts to hire women for the jobs that I had were frustrated by the fact that all the jobs that I had were “bad” jobs and qualified women could always get better jobs elsewhere. I had “bad” jobs 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 taxes, and auditing federal agencies.  Extremely few women wanted the “bad” jobs that I had.)

WALL STREET JOURNAL
— Rep. John Lewis Urges Young People to Stand Up to Injustice – ARUNA VISWANATHA  (DIERSEN: What would your superiors say that they did to stand up to injustice?  My Democrat GAO superiors would stress that they forced me to retire in 1997 when I was 49 years old, did not promote me beyond GS-13, kept me off audits of IRS for all but 3 of the almost 18 years that I worked for GAO, and forced me to take an $18,847 pay cut in today’s dollars to transfer from IRS to GAO in 1980.  My Democrat IRS superiors would stress that they did not promote me beyond GS-12, disallowed my education deductions, and disallowed my partial day per diem claims.  My Democrat Post Office superiors would stress that they forced me resign in 1969 and disallowed my sick leave requests.  My aforesaid Democrat superiors would stress that the aforesaid adverse actions that they took against me directly benefited their employees who were victims of injustice, that is, their employees who were poor, and especially their poor employees who were Democrat, minority, female, younger, and/or veteran.)

THE REPUBLIC
— High school classmates saw Pence’s leadership 40 years ago – Julie McClure  (DIERSEN: When you were in grade school and in high school, who believed that you were college material?  I should write a book about my critics/opponents back then who hinted/implied/argued/shouted that I was NOT college material.  They stressed that neither of my parents had attended college, that my father was the first of his ancestors to earn a high school diploma, that my mother had never attended high school, and that I was a part-time dishwasher.  My critics/opponents were disappointed that I made it into the upper 20% of my high school class, that I scored 24 on the ACT test, and that I got accepted by UIC.)
http://www.therepublic.com/2017/01/17/high_school_classmates_saw_pences_leadership_40_years_ago/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Classmates who traveled the halls of Columbus North High School in 1977 didn’t know then that one of them would one day hold the second highest office in the United States. But a few of them suspected Vice President-elect Mike Pence might be headed toward national office someday even as they voted him North’s senior class president that year. Bob Haddad Jr., now general manager of Harrison Lake Country Club, was one of Pence’s acquaintances who voted for him for senior class president. “Everybody did,” Haddad Jr. said of his classmates. “We knew even back then.”)
