— Biden’s 2020 Party Platform Proposal Seeks to Abolish America’s Suburban Communities – WARNER TODD HUSTON
https://www.breitbart.com/politics/2020/07/11/bidens-2020-party-platform-proposal-seeks-to-abolish-americas-suburban-communities/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Joe Biden’s radical proposal for the Democrat Party platform for 2020 seeks to put an end to America’s suburban communities by forcing low-income housing into every neighborhood and flooding every community with immigrants, legal or otherwise. The proposal, known as the Biden-Sanders Unity Task Force Recommendations, would provide instant amnesty and a pathway to U.S. citizenship for the 22 million illegal aliens now living in the nation. Astoundingly, it would also give legal status to all the world’s refugees regardless of the legitimacy of their claim to the status.)

https://townhall.com/columnists/wayneallynroot/2020/07/12/was-this-our-last-fourth-of-july-n2572321
(FROM THE ARTICLE: In 2014, I wrote the book “The Murder of the Middle Class.” Don’t look now, but sadly … tragically … it’s really happening. The left is crazy, extreme, radical, violent and ready for civil war. The Republican right — outside of President Trump — is a bunch of pathetic wimps ready to raise the white flag. We are the closest we’ve ever been to losing America. Have you ever seen as many spineless Republican politicians as we see today? Black Lives Matter is a Marxist group that is said to fund the Democratic National Committee. Republican Sen. Mike Braun says he supports Black Lives Matter. He also supports eliminating qualified immunity for cops. That’s the end of police in America. With Republicans like him, who needs enemies? Republican Sen. Mitt Romney marched with Black Lives Matter. How can anyone be such a dupe?)

I should write a book about that. They would not have done that if I had been a Democrat, minority, female, and/or veteran. They outrageously painted the graduate business courses that I had taken at Loyola and the graduate accounting courses that I had taken at DePaul a) as being not job-related, b) as not helping me carry out my job duties, and c) as being taken by me to get a job in the private sector.)

BLOOMBERG
— Wall Street campaign to hire Black talent isn’t going so well – Kelsey Butler (DIERSEN: GAO audits federal financial industry regulators. Compare and contrast how GAO treats its Democrat employees who are minority, female, and/or younger. GAO focuses on retaining and promoting its Democrat employees who are minority, female, and/or younger. To make way for them, GAO gets rid of its employees who are Republican, White, male, and/or non-veteran who do not make GS-13 (currently $101,176) by age 25, GS-14 (currently $119,559) by age 30, GS-15 (currently $140,634) by age 35, and Senior Executive Service (currently $170,800) by age 40. Extremely few GAO employees make the aforesaid promotion deadlines.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: For Black professionals who get job offers on Wall Street, there’s pay and benefits to consider. But also isolation, bias and racism. As big U.S. banks and asset managers vow at long last to address the industry’s dearth of Black executives, those who have been around a while warn progress will require more than the usual hiring spree. Offices remain alienating and even inhospitable. Most organizations lack mentors who can help guide the way up the org chart. Recruiters say top Black candidates have learned to be skeptical. “Folks are looking for welcome signs,” said Anthony Wright, founder of Diversity Recruiters, a Seattle-based executive search firm that helps clients including banks with inclusive hiring. “And when you’re a minority, the sign doesn’t say ‘Welcome,’ the sign says ‘Is there anybody there that looks like me?’ ”)

(FROM THE PROMOTION: This event will celebrate the retirement of the majority rule over the second-largest county in the state, which we predict will happen after the county election this November. We hope to educate participants about and demand the removal of Peter DiCianni, a member of the DuPage County board who has shown disrespect towards his constituents and the black community as well as endangered their health, as detailed by Hinsdale for BLM here and by multiple news outlets (Patch, MySuburbanLife.com). We also are pushing for 22 state policy initiatives that could be done in the next Illinois legislative session that would help stop the killing of BIPOC when they are signed into law. We will aim to raise awareness about things like the Census, Mail-in Voting, and the Illinois Fair Tax proposal. This event includes speakers (local candidates, youth activists and organizers, and educators), a COVID-19 testing car caravan, voter registration, public commenters sent to the DuPage County board meeting, a march, music, and a celebration to mark the upcoming retirement of the Republican majority in the board, which we predict will happen by the end of this year.)

DAILY HERALD
— Safe DuPage celebrating law enforcement on July 4 – Marie Wilson
https://www.dailyherald.com/news/20200703/safe-dupage-celebrating-law-enforcement-on-july-4
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Naperville’s fireworks are being shot off from the south side of town and the debut of The Naperville Salute has been postponed until 2021, but there is one Fourth of July event planned to bring patriotism to the downtown Saturday. Safe DuPage, an organization formed by Naperville City Council member Kevin Coyne, is hosting “Celebrating Naperville’s Heroes: 4th of July” at 9:30 a.m. at the base of the Millennium Carillon in Moser Tower at Rotary Hill, 455 Aurora Ave. Coyne said the event will include music and speakers in a socially distanced format with all attendees asked to wear masks and follow U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention guidelines to prevent the spread of the COVID-19 virus. Attendees also are asked to wear red, white and blue and to bring an American flag to wave. The purpose of the gathering, Coyne said, is to celebrate American independence and local safety. Speakers are set to include veterans, community leaders and elected officials. “We thought it’d be nice for an assortment of reasons to kick off the Fourth of July with a nice, patriotic-themed event that recognizes our public safety officers in Naperville who have done such a great job for so long,” Coyne said. The event is not a pro-police rally, like the one June 27 in Elmhurst, at which DuPage County Board member Pete DiCianni was seen on video confronting counterprotesters. But in the wake of protests about the police killing of George Floyd in Minneapolis, Coyne said, it’s important to show local law enforcement professionals they are appreciated. “You can’t have a free society that’s safe without good, strong law enforcement,” he said. “I think our police officers in general and our community needs to know that we’re not turning our back on our police, and police need to be respected.” The Fourth of July event is one of several Safe DuPage has hosted since forming early this year to promote public safety. Other town hall-style events, in person or online, have covered topics including crime, substance abuse, youth issues and court procedures. The events have featured elected officials and nonprofit leaders as speakers. For details about the event, visit https://safedupage.org/events/ .)

— Onondaga County’s only July 4 fireworks show still a go, but there’s a catch – Douglass Dowty (DIERSEN: Were there any Republican efforts to have fireworks in your municipality, in your township, in your county?)
https://www.syracuse.com/news/2020/07/onondaga-countys-only-july-4-fireworks-show-still-a-go-but-theres-a-catch.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The LaFayette fireworks display comes with its own bit of political intrigue: the event is being organized by Dave Knapp, the Republican chairman of the Onondaga County Legislature. LaFayette’s town supervisor, who helped bring the event together, is Republican Danny Fitzpatrick, son of longtime District Attorney William Fitzpatrick. And McMahon, also a Republican and the former county legislature chairman, said Friday that his administration played a role in changing the scope of festival based on pandemic concerns. But McMahon said Friday that, at no point, did he threaten to shut the event down.)
