CHICAGO SUN-TIMES
— Disgraced Churchman helped Chicago cardinal’s career, ex-Vatican official alleges – Robert Herguth (DIERSEN: What happened to those who helped your career? My Democrat IRS superiors got rid of the IRS manager who promoted me in 1972, 1973, and 1974. My Democrat GAO superiors got rid of the GAO manager who arranged for my transfer from IRS to GAO in 1980, got me assigned to audits of IRS in 1986, and promoted me in 1986.)

— Let us know politics of news employees – Kristin Kocan, Warrenville
https://www.dailyherald.com/discuss/20180827/your-responses-to-enemy-of-the-people-editorials
(FROM THE LETTER: Responding to your editorial entitled, “Not enemies, but voice of the people,” please note that Pope Francis addressed the issue of “fake news” in a message for Communications, last January. How did he describe fake news? “The term ‘fake news’ has been the object of great discussion and debate. In general, it refers to the spreading of disinformation on line or in the traditional media. It has to do with false information based on non-existent or distorted data meant to deceive and manipulate the reader. Spreading fake news can serve to advance specific goals, influence political decisions, and serve economic interests.” He goes on to say “Disinformation thus thrives on the absence of healthy confrontation with other sources of information that could effectively challenge prejudices and generate constructive dialogue …” His whole message has to do with truth. However, your editorial did not mention truth; up front, it said it is the “voice of the people.” Well, which people? Maybe on your editorial page (one of many pages), you give half time to one side of an issue, half time to the other side (maybe). But for the rest of the pages, your paper is the voice of those in your employ. What is the ratio of Democrat to Republican in your employ? What is the ratio of Trump supporters to Trump haters in your employ? Let us know, and then we can decide if your paper is an enemy of people you don’t agree with …)
— Does $60,000 make you middle class or wealthy on Planet Earth? – Heather Long and Leslie Shapiro (DIERSEN: Are/were you wealthy? Because I have always been a Republican, because I avoided the draft, and because I am not a minority or a female, my Democrat superiors, supervisors, coworkers, and subordinates in the federal government always demonized me, denigrated me, and condemned me as being wealthy. They stressed the money that I spent on new cars, education, real estate, collector cars, etc. They stressed my wife’s income. They stressed that my wife and I did not have children, we did not adopt, and we did not become foster parents. They stressed the money that we saved for our retirement. They were beyond furious when I got promoted in 1972, 1973, 1974, and 1986. They always hinted/implied/argued/shouted that because of the aforesaid, a) I did not need, nor should I be given, any promotions, b) I should be gotten rid of, and c) failing that, I should be forced to take early retirement.)
https://www.dailyherald.com/business/20180826/does-60000-make-you-middle-class-or-wealthy-on-planet-earth
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Kharas defines the middle class as people who have enough money to cover basics needs, such as food, clothing and shelter, and still have enough left over for a few luxuries, such as fancy food, a television, a motorbike, home improvements or higher education.)

— Illinois Pension Actuary Defrocked. Finally. – Mark Glennon (DIERSEN: My Democrat GAO and IRS superiors treated me like I had been defrocked by the organizations that had made me a Forensic Accountant in 1997, Certified Financial Services Auditor in 1996, Certified Government Financial Manager in 1994, Certified Fraud Examiner in 1990, licensed CPA in 1981, Certified Internal Auditor in 1981, and CPA in 1979. They treated me like I had been defrocked by the universities that had granted me master’s degrees in finance in 1997, accounting in 1980, and business in 1976. They treated me like I had been defrocked by the university that granted me a bachelor’s degree in management in 1970.

Those who give me the silent treatment 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 Milton Township Republican Central Committee 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.

AMERICAN ENTERPRISE INSTITUTE
— Quotation of the day on self-interest – Mark J. Perry (DIERSEN: QUESTION: What do you say to turncoats, traitors, defectors, deserters, and betrayers? Why do people work against their own self-interests, that is, why do people work against those who share their own demographics? ANSWER: Most commonly, it is because they see the future of those who share their demographics as being lost, and they want to curry favor with those who are getting rid of those who share their demographics. I should write a book about those in Wheaton, in Glen Ellyn, in Milton Township, in DuPage County, and in Illinois who work against those who share their own demographics. I should write about those who claim to be Trump supporters, Protestant, conservative, patriotic, and/or Republican, but who work against those like me who are Trump supporters, Protestant, conservative, patriotic, and/or Republican. I should write about those who are White, male, older, non-poor, gun owners, German American, and those whose ancestors have been in America for a long time, but who work against those like me who are White, male, older, non-poor, gun owners, German American, and those whose ancestors have been in America for a long time.)

https://abc7chicago.com/politics/dnc-protestors-say-theyre-fighting-the-same-issues-50-years-later/4052293/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: On the 50th anniversary of the protests, organizers of the August 25 event say the issues of injustice still remain. “Today, when we have America’s longest war in Afghanistan and Iraq, those lessons are urgently needed as well,” said Andy Thayer, part of the Chicago Committee Against War and Racism. Present-day attendees drew comparisons between the current political climate and that of 1968, hoping to re-capture the energy of the past to bring about change. “If you don’t have a screaming opposition to scream at that, it will take over,” said Katy Nielsen, a present-day protestor. “Here we are 50 years later and not only is it continuing, it’s worse now in a lot of ways.”)

WASHINGTON POST
— DIERSEN HEADLINE: An anti-Trump says “Your everyday Republican has some galling views.” According to my critics/opponents, not only does everyone have the right to punish me and my GOPUSA ILLINOIS emails, everyone should punish me and my GOPUSA ILLINOIS emails. They especially want the following to punish me: a) Milton Township Republican Central Committee, b) DuPage County Republican Central Committee, c) Illinois Republican Party, d) all the Republican officials who represent my precinct, Wheaton, Milton Township, DuPage County, and Illinois, e) TAPROOT Republicans of Illinois, f) Wheaton Chamber of Commerce, g) Illinois Center Right Coalition, h) American Association of Political Consultants, i) etc.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: The views of rank-and-file Republicans, captured in voter surveys, are nothing less than galling. Let’s lead with a poll conducted by the global marketing firm Ipsos and reported by the Daily Beast. It found that 43 percent of self-identified Republicans said they believed “the president should have the authority to close news outlets engaged in bad behavior.” When asked if President Trump should shut down The Post, CNN and the New York Times, 23 percent of Republicans said yes. These findings are obviously troubling to me as a member of the Fourth Estate. But in the Trump era, assaults on the media come with the territory. More disturbing to me as a citizen is that those Trump cultists would knowingly and willingly give him the power to trample on the First Amendment, destroying an essential part of our democracy that he doesn’t like. That is appalling. They either don’t know or care about what Supreme Court Justice Hugo Black wrote in New York Times Co. v. United States in 1971: The Founding Fathers intended that “the press was to serve the governed, not the governors.”)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: As you can see, in its ongoing efforts to wrangle cable news invites, TWS is adopting the exact same Orwellian language we hear from the book burners in the establishment media and from Social Justice Warriors–buzzwords like “healthy” and “optimal” and “be better.” This is the language of censors, of those who purge heretics for wrongthink under the guise of doing what is best for “the community.” You see, they are the ones who know what opinions and ideas we should and should not have access to — for our own good. Jonathan Last’s piece is also peppered with the non-argument that private companies should be allowed to set their own “standards,” even though no one is calling on these monster-sized companies not to have standards.)

https://www.breitbart.com/big-journalism/2018/08/10/pollak-cnn-wants-white-children-to-see-race-not-to-be-kind-to-everyone/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: CNN published an op-ed on Thursday that advises the parents of white children to begin educating them to notice racial differences at an early age — “constantly going out of our way to name differences” — rather than teaching them simply to “be kind to everyone.” Parents of white children must also bring them to social spaces “where they aren’t in the overwhelming racial majority,” and teach them about “more people of color freedom fighters than the few they hear about at school” to encourage “antiracist behaviors.” That is just some of the advice from Drake University professor Jennifer Harvey in an article titled, “Raising white kids to be racially sensitive — and proactive.” The obvious implication is that white children have a unique racist burden that others do not. CNN often accuses President Donald Trump of racism and of dividing Americans by race, often on the basis of its own imaginings, such as the (false) claim he only refers to black people, e.g. LeBron James, as “dumb.”)

https://www.realclearpolitics.com/articles/2018/08/02/speaker_race_if_trump_endorses_will_it_matter.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Conservative outside groups are already getting behind Jordan. Leaders of these organizations say he is dedicated to upholding Trump’s agenda and would help rally the base in the upcoming midterms. Some have even planned ad campaigns to help elect Jordan as speaker. “This is of course about base and turnout, and you left some big tickets from the Trump agenda on the cutting room floor,” said Adam Brandon, president of the conservative group FreedomWorks, naming Obamacare repeal and immigration reform as the top items. “Jim Jordan has credibility with the base on all of those issues.” He added that it’s unlikely Trump will make an endorsement in the race. “I actually think that President Trump will work with whoever is speaker. I would advise him to stay out of it right now,” Brandon said. Another conservative leader said that while it’s unclear whom the president will endorse, Jordan is more in line with his agenda. “The President has praised Jordan many times. … [L]ike Trump, he wants to accomplish right now what was promised to the American people,” said Brent Bozell, president of ForAmerica, in a statement. Jordan’s path to the speakership will likely be difficult regardless of whether the president weighs in. Ryan has already given McCarthy his support and said that most Republicans see him as the successor. “I think we all believe that Kevin is the right person,” said Ryan in an interview with NBC News in April after he announced his retirement.)

SPRINGFIELD STATE JOURNAL REGISTER
— Rauner says AG should prosecute Madigan – Doug Finke
http://www.sj-r.com/news/20180809/rauner-says-ag-should-prosecute-madigan
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Gov. Bruce Rauner Thursday said the state’s attorney general should be prosecuting House Speaker Michael Madigan, although he was vague about what. At a Statehouse bill signing ceremony, Rauner was asked about his comments earlier in the day that Erika Harold will go after the speaker if elected. Harold is the Republican candidate for attorney general. She is facing Democrat Kwame Raoul. “I’m giving her a million dollars which is a lot of money for me,” Rauner said during an interview on a southern Illinois radio station Thursday morning. I need her to win. (Current attorney general) Lisa Madigan has defended the corruption of her dad. Erika Harold will prosecute Madigan and the corruption.” But Rauner couldn’t say what crimes he thinks the speaker has committed. Rauner again complained that Madigan’s law firm does property tax appeals work. Rauner said that is wrong when policies set by the General Assembly can affect property taxes. “He’s on both sides of that,” Rauner said. “It’s corrupt. It’s a fundamental conflict of interest.” However, it is not illegal. Rauner said it should be. Harold spokesman Aaron DeGroot said Harold “will investigate and pursue any allegation of wrongdoing or corruption at any level of government in Illinois as attorney general.” He also said Harold has called for lawmakers to give the office additional authority to crack down on public corruption, such as authority to convene a statewide grand jury and issue subpoenas. Rauner also criticized Lisa Madigan for failing to root out corruption.)

http://www.gopusa.com/?p=52088
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Democratic socialist Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez said Tuesday that an upper-middle class “with soccer moms with two vans and stuff” no longer exists in America, The Daily Caller reported. Ms. Ocasio-Cortez discussed Democratic strategies and her idea of socialism in America during an interview for “Pod Save America.” “Their heyday was in the ’90s when kids had like Furbies and you had like soccer moms with two vans and stuff,” Ms. Ocasio-Cortez said. “That’s not America anymore!” The New York Democrat, who unseated long-time incumbent, Rep. Joe Crowley, suggested the older members of her party are out of touch. She said they don’t understand how rising income inequality has shaped the political landscape. During the conversation, the rising Democratic star said her party is not investing in younger candidates. She said that established Democrats are “feverishly working” on their own re-elections, but neglecting to support rising younger campaigns is why Republicans are winning. Ms. Ocasio-Cortez explained that these older representatives relied on a demographic that no longer exists. “A lot of these folk were in their political heyday in third-way ’90s politics,” she said, “I think that like politically this upper-middle class is probably more moderate, but that upper-middle class does not exist anymore in America.”)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: A local resident of District 200 has taken appropriate steps to hold the School Board accountable to the law. Jan Shaw, the founder of “DuPage Watchdog“, a local government accountability organization, filed a verified complaint for Declaratory Judgement, Mandamus, and Injunctive Relief against the District 200 School Board today. You can see her Press Release at this link. Back in March of this year, we published this article pertaining to the School District 200’s intentions to build a new school in spite of the majority of voters shooting down multiple referendums in their attempts to move forward with building a new school. It appears the facts laid out in our article as well as Shaw’s multiple articles on this matter have fallen on deaf ears. The School Board is moving forward against the will of the people and in contradiction to the law, in our opinion, and that of multiple other attorneys. We are pleased to see our information is shared as part of the exhibits to support the allegations in the complaint.)

How many crossover voters, that is, voters who cast Republican primary ballots, but vote for Democrats in general elections, that is, voters who are Democrat plants, Libertarian plants, Green plats, or RINOs, are there in your precinct, in your municipality, in your township/ward, in your county, in Illinois, and in America? I believe there are about 30 in my DuPage County Milton Township Precinct 9 in Wheaton and they are well-organized. Of course, they do not display yard signs for Republican candidates in general elections. Far too many of them treat me very rudely.)

MORRIS (DIERSEN: Are you a “private citizen?” According to my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes, a) I am NOT a “private citizen” and b) I am a “public figure.” They stress that I have been a Republican Precinct Committeeman since 1999 and the GOPUSA Illinois Editor since 2000. They stress that I was a TAPROOT Republicans of Illinois chairman 2005-2012, Wheaton Chamber of Commerce Government Affairs Committee member 2003-2011, Milton Township Republican Central Committee webmaster 2008-2010 and 2000-2004, Illinois Center Right Coalition Steering Committee member 2003-2007, American Association of Political Consultants Midwest Chapter board member 2001-2004, GAO employee 1980-1997, IRS employee 1971-1980, etc. They hint/imply/argue/shout that because I am a “public figure,” they can defame, libel, and slander me because I “cannot succeed in a lawsuit on incorrect harmful statements in the United States unless there is proof that the writer or publisher acted with actual malice by knowing the falsity or by reckless disregard for the truth. The legal burden of proof in defamation actions is thus higher in the case of a public figure than in the case of an ordinary person.” SEE: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Public_figure Do you agree with my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes that I am a “public figure?”)

The President of the United States had nothing better to do late on a Friday night than grab his phone and call a private citizen “dumb” in a tweet. The leader of the free world did that. What a small man he is.)
