FEDERAL NEWS RADIO
— GAO treads carefully through Trump transition – Tom Temin (DIERSEN: What did you do 1980-1997? I worked for GAO, the last 11 years of which at the GS-13 Step 1-10 levels, currently $94,610-$122,991.)
https://federalnewsradio.com/tom-temin-commentary/2017/10/gao-treads-carefully-through-trump-transition/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: In its famously even-handed tones, the Government Accountability Office provides a detailed look at how then-President-elect Trump approached transition. Three Democrats requested the study. People will take from it according to their political aims. But it’s worth reading just to get an unbiased view of the facts, nearly a year since a contentious election. A strong, statutory framework exists for transitions. It was strengthened by the Presidential Transitions Improvement act of 2015.  Against this backdrop, GAO looked carefully at the most recent transition.)

WIREPOINTS
— “Whatever” clip encapsulates the new Rauner – Mark Glennon
http://www.wirepoints.com/whatever-clip-encapsulates-the-new-rauner/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: When asked what he thought about all the chatter on a primary challenge from GOP Rep. Jeanne Ives, Governor Rauner had only a simple “whatever.” Unfortunately, that’s emblematic of the what Bruce Rauner has become. This is not the same Bruce Rauner who, at least through his primary run four years ago, was informed, substantive, vigorous and principled. Now, he stumbles from day to day with no purpose, unprepared and uninformed, offering little more than glib platitudes delivered with a smile. Nobody in either party in the General Assembly trusts him, and he has largely turned his office over to his wife, who holds fundamentally different views than those her husband ran on. He has lost it, and dropping out of the race is looking more and more like the right way for him to go.)

— Worry About DACA’s Fate Triggers Anxiety, Depression In Immigrants – MAUREEN FOERTSCH MCKINNEY (DIERSEN: What things have caused anxiety and/or depression for you?  For me, they include adverse actions that my Democrat superiors took against me. My Democrat GAO superiors forced me to retire in 1997 when I was 49 years old, always ranked me in the bottom half of my coworkers for pay-for-performance purposes, 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 (21%) pay cut in today’s dollars to transfer from IRS to GAO in 1980. My Democrat IRS superiors did not promote me beyond GS-12, disallowed my education deductions in 1978, and disallowed my partial day per diem claims in 1974. My Democrat Post Office superiors forced me resign in 1969 and disallowed my sick leave requests in 1969 and 1968.)

KOVALESKI and SABRINA TAVERNISE  (FROM THE ARTICLE: The video poker machines that Stephen Paddock liked were the ones that did not draw attention. They had few look-at-me flashing lights or listen-to-me bells. He would sit in front of them for hours, often wagering more than $100 a hand. The way he played — instinctually, decisively, calculatingly, silently, with little movement beyond his shifting eyes and nimble fingers — meant he could play several hundred hands an hour. Casino hosts knew him well.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: Illinois Republicans are split over whether to support Gov. Bruce Rauner after his decision to sign the abortion funding measure, House Bill 40. Wheaton State Rep. Jeanne Ives has been approached by conservatives to consider opposing Rauner in the March primary, but for now, she is noncommittal. “I’m not actively pursuing it, I’m letting it kind of boil up and we’ll see what happens,” Ives said. “I’m hoping somebody comes forward to run against him and we take him out as Republicans. Or I’m hoping that he decides on his own, ‘Look my base is eroded beneath me, there’s no chance of me winning because my base is going to stay home.'” Ives, a West Point graduate, has served in the Illinois House for five years. She said she also disagrees with the governor’s approval of the education funding bill and the sanctuary state law, both signed earlier this year.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: The situation is sickeningly familiar to anyone who works on — or reads — a metropolitan daily newspaper, whether it’s in New Orleans, Detroit or just about any other American city. The paper is hurting financially. It cuts reporters, photographers and editors to make ends meet. Then it cuts even deeper. The journalism suffers, but the paper’s work is still vital to its community. And a question looms: Will it even survive the next decade? “The real crisis in American journalism is at the local and metro level,” says Jim Friedlich, executive director of the Lenfest Institute for Journalism in Philadelphia, founded last year to save local journalism in Philadelphia and spread the cure around the nation. With the death of their old business model — based on once-plentiful print advertising — newsrooms are trying something new, he said. Like never before, they are turning to philanthropic sources and community support for sustenance.)

— Abortion Opponents Say Gov. Rauner Betrayed Them – Bob Roberts
http://chicago.cbslocal.com/2017/09/30/abortion-opponents-say-gov-rauner-betrayed-them/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Young opponents of abortion gathered outside the Thompson Center to denounce Gov. Bruce Rauner and the new law he signed this week that provides for taxpayer financing of abortion. GOP politicians called Rauner’s decision “political suicide.” One ally called  him “Benedict Rauner” in a Facebook post. The governor agreed to be scratched from a southwest suburban GOP picnic. The youthful anti-abortion protesters who gathered at the Thompson Center called the governor’s decision to sign HB-40 a grave disappointment. David Cordaro is with the organization Students For Life. “Governor Rauner betrayed us. He betrayed the Republican party. And he betrayed the pro-life generation,” said Cordaro. He is not backing any specific candidates yet. But says the group will support primary challengers who oppose taxpayer funding of abortions. Add State Sen. Dan McConchie and Rep. Tom Morrison to the list of legislators who say they’ve told Gov. Rauner he’s finished politically. McConchie said Republican lawmakers tried to convince Rauner to veto the bill. “There is no way that I can in any further election going forward stand with Gov. Rauner after he lied in regards to this. After he told Cardinal (Blase Cupich) one thing and then did something else,” said McConchie. That is not leadership. That is not the courageous leadership that we need to have in our state.” They encouraged the youthful abortion opponents to find candidates who oppose taxpayer funded abortions and to work for them.)

 

ILLINOIS REVIEW
— ACLU DANCES ON THE GRAVE OF HENRY HYDE – THANKS TO REPUBLICAN GOV. RAUNER
http://illinoisreview.typepad.com/illinoisreview/2017/09/aclu-dances-on-the-grave-of-henry-hyde-thanks-to-republican-gov-rauner.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE:  Despite his campaign rhetoric, Bruce Rauner may go down in history as one of Illinois’ most socially and culturally transformative governors. He’ll certainly be listed among the most effective for the Democrat, progressive left. On Thursday, Rauner signed into law the widely unpopular HB 40, which lifts the ban on taxpayer funding of elective abortions and codifies Illinois as a pro-abortion state regardless of what the U.S. Supreme Court may decide regarding Roe v. Wade. Not surprisingly, the ACLU is ecstatic and hailing Rauner as a hero of their ghoulish, “pro-choice” cause. They’re also dancing on the grave of the late Illinois Congressman Henry Hyde, who, 41 years ago today, passed the Hyde Amendment that banned taxpayer funding of abortion and saved approximately 2 million unborn lives. With the help of Gov. Rauner – who promised voters he had “no social agenda” – the ACLU sees Illinois as a harbinger of future victories across the country. They may be politically and eugenically correct, but they’ll be culturally, ethically, and historically wrong. Thank you Gov. Rauner.)

http://www.foxnews.com/opinion/2017/09/29/southern-poverty-law-center-put-me-on-its-hate-list-it-s-smear-and-don-t-belong-there.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: It’s an understatement to say that I was dumbfounded as to how I ended up on the Southern Poverty Law Center’s (SPLC) LGBTQ hate-list — I have never said or done anything to indicate hate for the LGBTQ community. When I called to inquire, SPLC informed me that I am guilty because I did a radio interview with Family Research Council Radio (FRC). I am a program coordinator for The Leadership Institute’s Campus Reform. org. The segment was about socialism, but because FRC holds traditional family values, I was labeled an LGBT-hater just for being a guest on the show. No LGBT topics even came-up. SPLC’s hate-list exemplifies a bullying tactic employed by the left to silence conservative ideas. Regardless of the issue, support for the conservative point of view results in a litany of hateful labels and reputation-smearing. The goal is to paint any opposition to the far left as morally depraved and, therefore, unworthy of being included in conversation. Dr. Carol Swain, an African-American woman and former Vanderbilt professor, is a perfect case-in-point; she was labeled a white supremacist sympathizer by the SPLC for pointing-out SPLC’s hypocrisy on racial issues. This tactic is more than illogical; it’s dangerous. Reckless and irresponsible hate-labeling not only stifles free speech and expression, it empowers and emboldens vicious groups and individuals to violently attack people. Consider the 2012 Family Research Council shooting, when a man walked into the organization’s office in Washington, D.C., with 100 rounds of ammunition and 15 Chick-fil-A sandwiches. He planned to kill as many staff members as possible and smear the sandwiches in their faces. He said he chose his target based on SPLC’s Hate Map.)

DAILY HERALD
— Suburban GOP upset enough with abortion bill to find challenger to Rauner?  Wheaton’s Ives ‘flattered’ at buzz for a possible candidacy – Susan Sarkauskas
http://www.dailyherald.com/news/20170929/suburban-gop-upset-enough-with-abortion-bill-to-find-challenger-to-rauner–
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Wheaton Republican state Rep. Jeannie Ives said Friday she is flattered by all the talk about whether she will run against incumbent Gov. Bruce Rauner in the March primary. Especially after Rauner signed a law Thursday to have Medicaid pay for abortions, he is “unelectable as a Republican,” she said. . .Ives’ name is being thrown about on radio, social media and print as a strong primary challenger to Rauner who would draw support from outraged social conservatives. “That’s very flattering … but there’s been no decision on my part,” Ives said. She was one of many Republican legislators who publicly campaigned for Rauner’s “Turnaround Agenda,” which dealt with money-related matters such as workers’ compensation and pensions. But she called Thursday’s decision on abortion “egregious” and “very extreme.” “Everybody I talk to is disavowing him. … This is a bridge too far for most Republicans,” she said. Lt. Gov. Evelyn Sanguinetti of Wheaton released a statement disagreeing with Rauner but also saying she would continue to work with him to accomplish other goals. State Sen. Jim Oberweis, also a fan of the Turnaround Agenda, said Rauner should have vetoed the bill on cost alone, saying the state is in “deep financial stress” and can’t afford new spending. He is also disappointed with Rauner’s recent actions concerning treatment of undocumented immigrants. But, he said, he knew Rauner was not a social conservative. “I respect the man. I think he has done a great job in standing up to Michael Madigan,” Oberweis said. Party unity? Schneider said the party must focus on beating the Democrats. “We need a check on the Democrats in Springfield,” said Pat Brady of St. Charles, former leader of the state Republican Party and a Rauner supporter. He doesn’t see a viable challenger to Rauner, especially since he has a huge campaign fund and a month of signature-collecting under his belt. Gubernatorial candidates need a minimum of 5,000 signatures on their petitions, which are due Dec. 4. “I think the reality is nobody could beat him in a primary,” Brady said. “The political reality in this state is there are a substantial amount of voters in Cook and the collar counties” that are abortion rights supporters, Brady said. “He took a real strong talking point away from the Democrats.” Ives disagrees. “Money isn’t everything. The grass-roots (Republicans) are very upset. I’m not sure Rauner’s re-electable. “Maybe if he switched parties he might be able to run as a Democrat.”)

CRAIN’S CHICAGO BUSINESS
— Did Rauner just uncork a challenge from the right? – GREG HINZ  (DIERSEN: Does Rauner want primary challengers who support the Illinois Republican Party platform so that he can stress the many planks in that platform that he rejects?)
http://www.chicagobusiness.com/article/20170929/BLOGS02/170929845/abortion-decision-may-spark-challenge-from-gov-rauners-right
(FROM THE ARTICLE: In a phone interview, state Rep. Jeanne Ives, a social and economic conservative and West Point graduate from Wheaton, said she’s concluded that Rauner “cannot be elected next year.” “It’s his decision whether or not to run. If he does, I hope we’d put up a primary opponent against him, because I won’t be supporting him,” Ives continued. Asked who that might be, Ives replied, “That’s an open question.” When I said that sounds like she’s interested, she answered, “I’ve not ruled it out,” noting not only Rauner’s “flip flop” on the abortion bill but also his earlier decision to sign bills boosting funding for Chicago Public Schools and directing law enforcement officials not to cooperate with federal immigration agents in many cases involving those in the country illegally.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: Former White House strategist Steve Bannon told conservatives Sunday at a rally that they needn’t worry about Democrats but instead should focus on the “corrupt and incompetent Republican establishment.” Bannon spoke to about 400 people at a St. Louis hotel during the rally hosted by Phyllis Schlafly Eagles, a spinoff of the conservative think tank Eagle Forum that Schlafly founded and led until her death last year at age 92. The rally came at a tense time in St. Louis, where nearly 200 people have been arrested in protest since Sept. 15, when a judge acquitted a white former police officer in the fatal shooting of a black suspect. A small group of protesters stood outside the hotel with signs, including large letters that spelled out “Racist.”)

They are especially anti-GM, anti-Ford, and anti-Chrysler.  They remind everyone that I was a union member for almost 12 years and that I own a 1972 Chevy Corvette, 1996 Ford Thunderbird LX, 2003 Chevy Cavalier LS, 2005 Chevy Corvette, 2013 Dodge Charger R/T Max, and 2016 Ford Mustang and that I have owned a 1958 Chevy BelAir, 1962 Chevy BelAir, 1962 Chevy Impala SS, 1966 Pontiac Tempest Sprint, 1968 Oldsmobile 442, 1968 Dodge Charger R/T, 1969 Dodge Charger SE, 1974 Dodge Dart, 1978 Chevy Chevette, 1978 Oldsmobile Delta 88 Royale, 1990 Ford Thunderbird LX, 1993 Ford Thunderbird, and 1997 Chevy Cavalier.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: For baby boomers, the automobile has always been a symbol of style and freedom. The generation of 76.4 million born between 1946 and 1964 who once romped in the back seats of their parents’ station wagons has determined what we drive for over a half-century. With advanced technology and designs catering to this demographic, boomers will influence our rides long past when they hang up their key chains.)
