— Ruling gives politicians leverage in controlling access – Jim Dey
https://www.news-gazette.com/opinion/columns/jim-dey-ruling-gives-politicians-leverage-in-controlling-access/article_70ff8071-d20d-50e8-b65f-d494a7b999ab.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Can elected public officials discriminate from among the reporters who cover their activities based on who they like and don’t like? Obviously not, according to legal interpretations of the media’s First Amendment rights. More narrowly, can public officials pick and choose among news outlets, allowing some to cover their events while barring others? A federal appeals court in Chicago just answered the latter question in the affirmative. But it qualified its decision by asserting that the official picking and choosing must be based on neutral factors applied across the board.)

There should be wariness of getting on board with “230 reform” without recognizing that many on the left have a completely different view of what reform looks like.)

https://nypost.com/2021/03/28/democrats-targeting-red-states-and-other-commentary/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Democrats are alarmed by the number of residents fleeing blue states, but “instead of trying to fix the policies” that push people away, liberal lawmakers “want to impose those unpopular mandates nationwide,” observes Liz Peek at The Hill. To “eliminate the competition between states that they are losing,” lefties are “pushing bills that would put the federal government in charge of states’ labor laws, fiscal policies and voting rules” — from stimulus funds that prohibit state-level tax cuts to ballot-box “reforms” intended to enhance blue turnout in red places. These “egregious power-grabs” are “downright authoritarian.”)

— Kinzinger’s “show of political strength” knocked by Democrats
https://capitolfax.com/2021/03/22/kinzingers-show-of-political-strength-knocked-by-democrats/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: From Kristina Zahorik, President of the Illinois Democratic County Chairs’ Association…“Let us not forget that Adam Kinzinger is a tried and true Republican who voted with Donald Trump more than 90% of the time and repeatedly voted to repeal the Affordable Care Act. And now, Adam Kinzinger is teaming up with Karl Rove, one of the architects of the war in Iraq, who helped elect George W. Bush — someone who, after Trump, is one of the worst Presidents in modern history — and to this day still defends the Bush administration’s use of torture.” “Adam Kinzinger is attempting to rebrand his image so people will forget how extreme his voting record is. But even while Adam Kinzinger is now throwing Donald Trump under the bus, he continues to align him himself with some of the worst members of his party. We can acknowledge Kinzinger for standing up and impeaching Trump, but we can’t forget who he has always been — an extreme Republican.” Karl Rove has a history of incorrigible behavior and practices, including just last year his use of racially loaded language when he attacked President Obama for speaking at a historically black college and, in Rove’s words, committing a “political drive-by shooting.”)

BLOOMINGTON PANTAGRAPH
— Illinois GOP chairman Don Tracy hopes to unify party’s factions, defeat Pritzker next year – BRENDEN MOORE (DIERSEN: Political parties exist to help elect candidates who can and will defend and advance their platform. I have always been a platform Republican. I should write a book about Illinois Republican Party leaders who have worked the hardest since 2000 to get rid of Republicans like me who support the traditional marriage/family, right to life, immigration, illegal drugs, Second Amendment, and equal opportunity (no race or gender based preference giving) planks in the Republican Party platform.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: Tracy is hoping to take the same approach with the Illinois Republican Party, an organization that has been divided between the traditional moderate wing that dominated for decades with central figures like Jim Thompson and Jim Edgar; and an ascendant, conservative wing that has gained traction with the rise of the Tea Party movement and the election of President Donald Trump in 2016. “I think those are the kind of issues that are somewhat similar for a party,” Tracy said. “And you can recognize pretty early on in a family business in a large family that the perfect is the enemy of the good. And in the Republican Party, unfortunately, we’ve had experience with people thinking you have to be perfect to be a Republican, and that that’s not true.” . . . However, Tracy said he will put practicality over purity as he seeks to steer his party back to relevance. He said he envisions a big tent party. In fact, it’s a necessity. “The Reagan rule is 80%. If someone agrees with you on 80% of the issues if a Republican, that means that that Republican is your ally, not your enemy,” Tracy said. “If we don’t unite the party, almost nothing else that we do next year will matter,” Tracy said. “We’re a minority party — a Republican Party in a deep blue state. And we have to have all Republicans working together, not always agreeing about everything, but working together to make this state into a two-party state again.” . . . Exacerbating the problem is a national party that is increasingly out of step with the diversifying, socially moderate Chicago suburbs, albeit increasingly reflective of conservative bastions downstate.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: The class of 1949 gifted the plaque to the school in 1957 to commemorate their slain classmates, who were killed in 1956 during their attempt to bring the gospel to the violent Huaorani, or Auca Indians, in the rainforest of Ecuador. Elliot and McCully, along with fellow missionaries Nate Saint, Peter Fleming, and Roger Youderian, initially made friendly contact with the tribe and exchanged gifts for several months. On Jan. 8, 1956, however, a group of Huaorani warriors fell upon them, spearing them to death and throwing their bodies in the river.)

Ever-increasingly, I am a Republican who lives in a Democrat bubble. I should write a book about that.)
https://phys.org/news/2021-03-democrats-republicans-partisan.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: New research on political behavior finds that most Democratic and Republican voters live in partisan bubbles, with little daily exposure to those who belong to the other party. For instance the typical Democrat has “almost zero interactions” with Republicans in their neighborhood, according to an article by Harvard doctoral student Jacob R. Brown and government Professor Ryan D. Enos published March 8 in the journal Nature Human Behaviour. “There’s a lot of evidence that any separation between groups has a lot of negative consequences. We see this in race; we see this in religion; we see this in all kinds of things,” said Enos. “And increasingly, we see this in partisanship in the United States.” . . . No area of the country is immune to the segregation, but its intensity varies. Democrats in large, densely populated cities like New York are the most politically isolated, with 10 percent of them encountering a Republican only one out of 10 times in their neighborhood. Republicans in rural areas are similarly segregated. Overall, most Democrats and Republicans live in levels of partisan segregation that exceed what scholars of racial segregation consider highly segregated, the study found. . .”Even within a neighborhood, Democrats and Republicans are separating from each other a little bit,” said Enos. That seems like “an almost unnatural level of segregation” given the similarities people from the same neighborhood usually share and “might indicate there’s something pretty pernicious going on,” he added.)
