October 9 Evening Edition

WASHINGTON TIMES
— GOP women stand by Trump, blast those jumping ship over ‘antique locker-room talk’ – Ralph Z. Hallow
http://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2016/oct/9/republican-women-stand-by-donald-trump-blast-those/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Demetra DeMonte, an RNC member from Illinois and former national secretary of the RNC, led off the female Trump brigade’s counterattack by dispatching a letter to the other 167 RNC members reasserting her support for Mr. Trump. “Donald J. Trump is not going to step down — nor should he,” Mrs. DeMonte wrote. “He is our lawfully elected nominee.” She argued that although she does not condone the “inappropriate language” he had used while talking with then “Access Hollywood” host Billy Bush in 2005, unaware that the microphones they were wearing were recording their sex talk about women, the billionaire developer was “not the first nor will he be the last to utter foul language in the privacy of their home or locker rooms.” . . . Mrs. DeMonte, the Illinois RNC member, countered, said that Mrs. Clinton’s comments Saturday that she was disgusted by her opponent’s language was like the Captain Renault in “Casablanca” claiming that he is “shocked, shocked” that gambling is going on in Rick’s Cafe. “Hillary,” Mrs. DeMonte said, is “the consummate hypocrite, who while first lady barraged her own Secret Service detail with unspeakably foul language — the very same men who put their lives on the line for hers. Such hypocrisy!” . . . Mrs. DeMonte said party leaders should compare the two candidates’ full records in the wake of the latest controversy. “Mr. Trump may be guilty of uttering foul language — but Hillary is guilty of committing foul deeds, deeds, if she were anyone else, would have resulted in prison time,” Mrs. DeMonte said, citing the deletion of “thousands of documents which she knew was illegal” and refusing “multiple cries for help from our ambassador that resulted in his murder, along with three brave Americans” in Benghazi, Libya. Mrs. DeMonte averred that Mrs. Clinton as a lawyer “laughed when she got off a rapist of a 12-year-old girl — while knowing all along her client was guilty of rape. That is on tape, too.” Why, she asked don’t the news media “play that audio?”)

October 8 Evening Edition

DIERSEN NOTE: Just because someone reports what anti-Trumps say does not necessarily mean that person is anti-Trump.  For example, Diersen reports what anti-Trumps say, but Diersen is not anti-Trump.  Everyone should know what is in the public realm concerning government and politics, and the sooner the better.  As everyone knows, virtually everyone in the paid media is anti-Trump.

 

CHICAGO SUN-TIMES
— DIERSEN HEADLINE: Anti-Trumps say “Bolingbrook mayor Roger Claar backs Trump, other Illinois pols not forgiving.”
http://chicago.suntimes.com/politics/bolingbrook-mayor-roger-claar-still-backing-trump-despite-video/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Many Republicans are backing away from Donald Trump in the wake of video showing the GOP presidential candidate making lewd comments about women, but Bolingbrook Mayor Roger Claar isn’t one of them. A week after hosting a fundraiser that netted Trump $1.5 million— and hours after video recorded during a 2005 appearance on “Access Hollywood” in which the candidate talks about his pursuit of a married woman and groping women— Claar said he’s still backing Trump over Hillary Clinton. “I can’t say (Trump’s statements) doesn’t bother me,” Claar said Saturday in a phone interview while he waited for a flight at a Florida airport. “But I also read excerpts from Hillary’s email that is also somewhat unfortunate.”  Meanwhile, other Illinois politicians weren’t so forgiving. Congressman Rodney Davis, a Republican representing central and southwest Illinois, called for Trump to drop out of the race. Rep. John Shimkus, a Republican from southern Illinois issued a statement Saturday saying he was “profoundly disappointed and disgusted by Donald Trump’s comments.” Gov. Bruce Rauner did not attend this year’s GOP convention and has not endorsed Trump, but has said he would support the Republican nominee. Sen. Mark Kirk, locked in a close race for reelection against Democrat Tammi Duckworth, has also called for his party to drop Trump as a candidate. Claar on Saturday admitted video of Trump in 2005 bragging about groping women and courting a married acquaintance has shaken some of those who paid to be in the crowd of 350 when Trump visited the Bolingbrook Golf Club. Among those in attendance at the fundraiser in the country club’s Reagan Room: Todd Ricketts, head of a conservative super PAC and a co-owner of the Chicago Cubs; Weather Tech CEO Dave McNeil; and Bears Hall of Famer Dan Hampton. Claar, who began a trip to Cuba Friday night and missed the early coverage of Trump’s remarks recorded during a 2005 appearance on Access Hollywood, said he got a text from one of the donors who attended last week’s Trump fundraiser. “He said ‘Well, it’s over,’” Claar said Saturday as he waited for a flight in Florida. “I texted him ‘Why? What happened?’ and he said ‘Google Trump and comments and video’”  “It’s unfortunate,” Claar said. “But it’s not like he’s the first person in the world that’s ever said that stuff.”  Claar said that his discouraged Trump donor also texted him again Saturday after reading about Hillary Clinton campaign emails released by WikiLeaks. “He said ‘He’s back in it,’” Claar said. “That’s how fast this thing is moving.” In the video, Trump is apparently unaware that his conversation with former “Access Hollywood” host Billy Bush is being recorded, as Trump confides that he did “try and f–k” a married woman, and that his fame allowed him to grope women with impunity. “When you’re a star, they let you do it. You can do anything… Grab ’em in the p-ssy. You can do anything,” Trump said. The hacker group WikiLeaks on Friday also released emails from Clinton’s campaign staff that included excerpts from Clinton’s remarks in speeches she made to trade groups after leaving her post as Secretary of State, with the staffers themselves noting that her statements could be used to make Clinton appear overly cozy with the finance industry. “(Trump’s) language is unfortunate, but (Hillary Clinton’s) actions are questionable ethically,” Claar said. “They’re both challenged candidates. “Hillary tolerates the same thing from her husband abusing women for years, while he was president, and nobody talks about that.” Illinois Republicans have generally been lukewarm in their support for Trump even as the billionaire steadily dispatched his challengers during the primaries— including an 8-point in Illinois in March.)

— Lawsuit claims Yahoo ousted male employees – Jon Swartz  (DIERSEN: In 1989, GAO instituted its pay-for-performance system to get rid of its employees who were Republican, White, male, older, and/or non-veteran.)
http://www.usatoday.com/story/tech/2016/10/07/lawsuit-claims-yahoo-ousted-male-employees/91724590/
(FROM THE ARTICLE:  A second man has filed a lawsuit alleging Marissa Mayer and other top Yahoo female executives discriminated in favor of women in their hiring, firing and promotions in the company’s editorial division. Scott Ard, who worked for more than three years at Yahoo until early 2015, says he and others were terminated to “accommodate management’s subjective biases and personal opinions, to the detriment of Yahoo’s male employees,”  according to a lawsuit filed in federal court in San Jose, Calif., this week. The suit alleges the performance-rating system, fostered by Mayer, resulted in a rapid succession of individual layoffs, which violates the U.S. and California Worker Adjustment and Retraining Notification (WARN) acts that require advance notification of mass layoffs.)

COLLEGE FIX
— Black student rejects victimhood status: ‘I am going to break stereotypes’ – WILLIAM NARDI (DIERSEN: Ever-increasingly, Democrats and RINOs shout at minorities, at women, at younger people, at veterans, and at everyone else that Republicans have caused, are causing, and will forever cause all the problems that minorities, women, younger people, veterans, and everyone else has had, are having, and will have.)
http://www.thecollegefix.com/post/29344/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: As a young, black woman, life on campus is not always easy for Roger Williams University freshman Kalasia Richer. But her hardships are not the result of slavery from years past – as her professors and peers like to insist – but instead from the current political persecution she says she faces for being a conservative on a liberal college campus. “I have been told since day one that I would not succeed without the demeaning benefits of affirmative action,” says Richer, 18. “One of my professors actually told me that it’s offensive to say that everyone can achieve the American dream.” Statements like these are common among the liberal academia, who teach that “systemic oppression” and “institutionalized racism” are the most significant factors of whether or not one will achieve success in life. But because Richer doesn’t but into it, she’s mocked and ridiculed and blackballed. “One of my classes is entirely structured around the so-called belief in ‘white privilege,’” she told The College Fix, referring to a humanities elective. “Professors shame white students from speaking up against it, and whenever I do they look at me like I’m a traitor.” According to Richer, a political science major, such classes victimize women of color and force other students to justify their current “oppression.” In an attempt to balance the political climate of her campus, Richer took a position as the secretary of a proposed chapter of the conservative Young Americans for Freedom group. But late last month, student government leaders refused to allow the club to officially be recognized on campus, accusing it of being too similar to the College Republicans. “I was disgusted by the hostility I felt for daring to give a voice to conservatives on campus,” she says. “College is advertised as a place for your mind to grow, but I didn’t realize how much of a lie it was until I saw firsthand how these ‘student leaders’ attempt to dictate how students think on campus.”)

DAILY HERALD
— Naperville Republicans hosting spring primary to make election ‘open’ – Marie Wilson  (DIERSEN: If you are NOT going to defend and advance the Republican Party platform and the Illinois Republican Party platform, you should NOT seek or hold any kind of government or political office as a Republican.)
http://www.dailyherald.com/article/20161004/news/161009522/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Republican voters in Naperville Township should mark their calendars for Feb. 28, 2017, when they can head to the polls for a primary election. The Naperville Township Republican Organization decided to hold a primary next year instead of a caucus to choose candidates for positions before the April 4 election. Seats included in the primary are for supervisor, clerk, assessor, highway commissioner and four township trustees. Carl Schultz, Naperville Township Republican chairman, said the group chose to buck its recent trend of slating candidates through a caucus because a primary will allow all interested voters to get involved. “I think it’s a very positive move,” Naperville Township Supervisor Rachel Ossyra said. “It shows the organization’s commitment to transparency, accountability and ensuring all the voters have access.” With a caucus, state-mandated to take place during a gathering on a certain night, Schultz said “there’s a lot of people that are excluded — not maliciously, but by fact.” Military members or college students or anyone who happens to be out of town on caucus night wouldn’t be able to participate, Schultz said. Neither would anyone in the hospital or unable to access the caucus site. The decision comes at a time when Naperville Township is the subject of political discussions about government consolidation — either by managing road district operations through agreements with other entities or by potentially eliminating townships themselves. “Given some of the local issues regarding townships, we thought we should broaden (the candidate selection process) and make it as open to the entire community as possible,” Schultz said. “It gives voters the best opportunity to weigh in on what’s going on.” What’s going on, Schultz and Ossyra say, is really a discussion about “modernizing government.” The discussion could mean more people will want to be involved as candidates. If there is broader interest, Naperville Township Highway Commissioner Stan Wojtasiak said hosting a primary is a good move. It allows anyone to gather signatures, get their name on the ballot and run — without having to be a party insider. “It opens up the field to anybody who has any interest,” Wojtasiak said. The Republican organization is encouraging anyone who wants to run for a township position to review the 2017 candidate’s guide from the Illinois State Board of Elections. Prospective candidates must file nominating petitions between Nov. 21 and 28.)

http://www.1011now.com/content/news/Lawmakers-concerned-as-millennials-continue-to-show-little-interest-in-public-service-395866121.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Are millennials uninterested in public service? That’s a question lawmakers are pondering in Washington. Statistics show younger generations are scared off by federal government jobs. “Bring back this sense of civic idealism that you can make a difference,” said Steven Olikara, Founding President of the Millennial Action Project. Millennials are shying away from public service. The goal of the Millennial Action Project is to bring American politics into a more inclusive and bipartisan age, by using the talents of younger generations. “There’s this larger narrative that we have to combat which is that you can’t make a difference in public service,” said Olikara. “The levels of distrust continue to be high levels. Something like 80 percent of millennials don’t trust the government to do the right thing.” Olikara says recruitment and compensation are two huge issues when it comes to incentivizing young people. “There is a systemic problem, we need cultural change, and I think the biggest thing I hear all the time is, we need to be rewarding talent and rewarding results,” said Olikara.)

CHICAGO TRIBUNE
— Illinois Senate endorsement: Seth Lewis
http://www.chicagotribune.com/news/opinion/editorials/ct-illinois-senate-endorsements-madigan-rauner-cullerton-edit-20161003-story.html
(FROM THE ENORSEMENT: 23rd District: The remap of legislative districts in Democrats’ favor helped nudge Sen. Tom Cullerton, former Villa Park mayor and a cousin of Senate President John Cullerton, into this seat in 2012. Cullerton has done some things we like. He was lead sponsor of a bill blocked by Republicans to get rid of the unnecessary lieutenant governor’s office. But he doesn’t wander far off his party’s script and should have voted against a budget this spring that was $7 billion out of balance. He voted “present.” Our nod goes to Republican Seth Lewis, an insurance agent from Bartlett, who as a Bartlett Fire Protection District trustee hasn’t been afraid to vote against more spending. He also isn’t afraid to speak against generous pension packages that taxpayers subsidize — including that of his wife, who is a school superintendent. Ouch. We wouldn’t want to be at the dinner table for that discussion.)
— Illinois Senate endorsement: Dan McConchie
http://www.chicagotribune.com/news/opinion/editorials/ct-illinois-senate-endorsements-madigan-rauner-cullerton-edit-20161003-story.html
(FROM THE ENDORSEMENT: 26th District: This northwest suburban seat opened in April when incumbent Dan Duffy resigned early. Local GOP leaders rallied to Dan McConchie of Hawthorn Woods, who won the March Republican primary. McConchie didn’t get our endorsement in that race, but he’s getting it this time. He has shown a willingness to work across the aisle and dig into policy, including school funding reform and anti-sex trafficking efforts. His opponent, Democrat Kelly Mazeski of Barrington, is an impressive candidate who has been involved in her local government. She characterizes McConchie as “a one-issue” lobbyist who is too socially conservative for the district. We’re not convinced. McConchie left his job with an anti-abortion organization and has shown he is not a one-issue legislator. Let’s give him a chance. McConchie is endorsed.)
— Illinois Senate endorsement: Mel Thillens
http://www.chicagotribune.com/news/opinion/editorials/ct-illinois-senate-endorsements-madigan-rauner-cullerton-edit-20161003-story.html
(FROM THE ENDORSEMENT: 28th District: We like Sen. Laura Murphy, D-Des Plaines, because she is direct and outspoken. As a former member of the Des Plaines City Council, she advocated canceling a contract with a group opposing O’Hare airport expansion because taxpayers weren’t getting enough for their money. But so far in Springfield, she has stuck to the Democratic playbook, including voting for piecemeal budget bills that expanded government programs but had no real funding attached to them. She also supported a bill at the behest of the state’s largest employee union that was anti-taxpayer. This is a race where taxpayers could say “Enough!” with the budget games. We’re endorsing Republican Mel Thillens of Park Ridge, whose view of government’s role is less, less and less.)
— Illinois Senate endorsement: Michael Amrozowicz
http://www.chicagotribune.com/news/opinion/editorials/ct-illinois-senate-endorsements-madigan-rauner-cullerton-edit-20161003-story.html
(FROM THE ENDORSEMENT: 31st District: Let’s get one thing out the way: Republican candidate Michael Amrozowicz’s name is pronounced “Am-RO-zo-wits.” The Gurnee resident and former Lake County Republican Party chairman is running against incumbent Sen. Melinda Bush, D-Grayslake, who was elected in 2012 and buoyed by a new, favorable district map. Bush voted against most versions of pension reform and supported a union-backed bill that most editorial boards from Rockford to Carbondale criticized as irresponsible and anti-taxpayer. The state is broke. Taxpayers are tired of shouldering all the promises. Amrozowicz would bring more fiscal sanity to the Senate. He is endorsed.)
— Illinois Senate endorsement: Pamela Althoff
http://www.chicagotribune.com/news/opinion/editorials/ct-illinois-senate-endorsements-madigan-rauner-cullerton-edit-20161003-story.html
(FROM THE ENDORSEMENT: 32nd District: Sen. Pamela Althoff, R-McHenry, is running for a two-year term and says if re-elected, it will be her last: “I believe in term limits.” Appointed to the seat in 2003, she has represented the northwest suburbs ever since. She has been successful at passing legislation because she lobbies her colleagues on both sides of the aisle and in both chambers. She knows Democrat staff just as well as Republican staff. Not many legislators can say that. We disagreed with her handling of a government consolidation bill this spring — she watered it down — but she still got the bill passed and signed into law. Althoff is endorsed over Democrat Melissa Coyne, a small business owner and community activist from Fox Lake.)
— Illinois Senate endorsement: Sue Rezin
http://www.chicagotribune.com/news/opinion/editorials/ct-illinois-senate-endorsements-madigan-rauner-cullerton-edit-20161003-story.html
(FROM THE ENDORSEMENT: 38th District: A rematch is underway between Sen. Sue Rezin, R-Morris, and Christine Benson, D-Ottawa. Benson lost to Rezin 46 percent to 54 percent when they faced off in 2012. Benson retired that year as superintendent of Streator Elementary School District 44, which has been struggling with a budget deficit due in part to the state’s inability to make full school payments. But Streator-area voters signaled they are taxed out. They rejected a school referendum to raise property taxes. Rezin would be a stronger advocate for those tax-weary residents. She is a consistent advocate for government consolidation and financial stability. We doubt Benson, who retired with a generous pension and is backed by organized labor, would be as prudent. With Democrats holding their 39-20 advantage over Republicans in the Senate, taxpayers can’t afford to lose another seat. Rezin is endorsed.)
— Illinois Senate endorsement: Michelle Smith
http://www.chicagotribune.com/news/opinion/editorials/ct-illinois-senate-endorsements-madigan-rauner-cullerton-edit-20161003-story.html
(FROM THE ENDORSEMENT: 49th District: In this southwest suburban district, Sen. Jennifer Bertino-Tarrant, D-Shorewood, is facing Michelle Smith, R-Plainfield, who is the board president in Plainfield School District 202. On the school board, Smith has tried to keep the property tax levy steady while dealing with unpredictability from the state. “Attempting to build a budget every year is like throwing darts blindfolded,” Smith says. Incumbent Bertino-Tarrant should understand the pressure the state’s financial chaos creates in her district — yet she couldn’t bring herself to vote against House Speaker Michael Madigan’s budget, which was $7 billion out of balance. She voted “present.” Votes like that are the reason the state’s finances are a disaster. Smith is strongly endorsed.)
— Illinois Senate endorsement: Paul Schimpf
http://www.chicagotribune.com/news/opinion/editorials/ct-illinois-senate-endorsements-madigan-rauner-cullerton-edit-20161003-story.html
(FROM THE ENDORSEMENT: 58th District: We know both Republican Paul Schimpf of Waterloo and Democrat Sheila Simon of Carbondale to be dedicated public servants. Schimpf served in the U.S. Marine Corps and was an adviser to Iraqi prosecutors during the trial of Saddam Hussein. Simon was lieutenant governor under Pat Quinn. But here’s a case where voters in Southern Illinois can demand change. The economy in this part of the state is desperate for revitalization. Democratic policies have not worked. Schimpf supports workers’ comp changes to make Illinois more business-friendly. He also supports tort reform and term limits. Schimpf is endorsed.)
— Illinois Senate endorsement: Dale Fowler
http://www.chicagotribune.com/news/opinion/editorials/ct-illinois-senate-endorsements-madigan-rauner-cullerton-edit-20161003-story.html
(FROM THE ENDORSEMENT: 59th District: It’s strange that Sen. Gary Forby, D-Benton, claims to be a fiscal steward, often proclaiming that the state should retire its massive pile of unpaid bills. Then he voted in May for House Speaker Michael Madigan’s spending plan, which everyone knew was $7 billion short. He didn’t have to vote for it. Most Democratic senators did not. Remember that, voters of this district, when you show up to cast a ballot on Nov. 8. A better choice is Dale Fowler, mayor of Harrisburg, who knows what “reckless spending” actually means. Fowler is endorsed.)
— FROM THE ARTICLE: 22nd District: Tracy Smodilla of Bartlett, didn’t run in the primary but managed to ward off a Democratic challenge as a last-minute slated Republican. She’s smart, outspoken and fiscally conservative. She is not afraid to stand up to, well, anyone. She successfully fought an unnecessary tax increment financing district in her hometown. We hope to see her name on future ballots.

http://www.chicagotribune.com/suburbs/naperville-sun/ct-nvs-dupage-county-early-voting-st-1002-20160930-story.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Early voting  Early voting started Thursday in the DuPage County, and has already drawn hundreds of residents eager to cast ballots in a presidential election expected to draw 80 percent of the county’s registered voters. “Early voting has started! We can vote for Hillary today! Then we’ll get a glass of wine,” said Maureen Quirk, of Wheaton, who joined co-worker Debbie Szydlo, of Carol Stream, at the Wheaton-based election commission office Friday afternoon to make official their votes for the Democratic presidential candidate. “She needs suburban white women. Well, here we are,” Quirk said. About 160 voters Thursday and nearly 200 Friday filled out ballots to vote for president, U.S. Senate, DuPage County offices and other races at the 421 N. County Farm Road office, said Joseph Sobecki, assistant executive director of the DuPage County Election Commission. The site is the first early polling place in DuPage County. Nearly a dozen more are scheduled to open around the county Oct. 24 and will operate through Nov. 7. Election Day is Nov. 8. The crowd Friday wasn’t exclusively made up of Democrats or Clinton supporters. Voters Bob and Carole Rutan, both 74, of Wheaton, said they are registered Republicans although they declined to name their candidate of choice. “I don’t like either one of them that much,” Carole Rutan said. The couple said they wanted to vote before heading to Florida later in October. Sobecki said he and his staff are preparing for record voter turnout — expected to be as high as 80 percent — in this year’s general election. The spring primary election drew a record number of DuPage County voters, with nearly 290,000 ballots cast. “It was the highest total number we’ve had since we recorded primaries,” Sobecki said. “We expect that trend to continue for the general election.”)
