https://www.breitbart.com/politics/2018/11/22/thanksgiving-the-lefts-use-of-national-identity-for-immigration-maximalism/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: This trend of nonstop, immigration maximalism is the sort of driving force that Huntington’s Who Are We? notes has contributed to the decimation of America’s national identity which the political Left has justified through the revisionist story of the pilgrims. “‘We Americans’ face a substantive problem of national identity epitomized by the subject of this sentence. Are we a ‘we,’ one people or several? If we are a ‘we,’ what distinguishes us from the ‘thems’ who are not us? …” Huntington wrote in 2004. “These questions remain for Americans in their post-September 11 era.”)

— The Ungrateful Nation (DIERSEN: Who blasts you for not being thankful enough? I should write a book about those who blast me for not being thankful enough. According to them, I would not have anything now a) if I had not been born a healthy White male, b) if I had not avoided the draft, c) if the federal government had not grossly overpaid me, d) if I had not gotten married, e) if my wife had not always had income, f) if we had not given up trying to have children, g) if we had adopted, h) if we had become foster parents, and i) if my retirement benefits were not so overly generous.

DAILY HERALD
— With changing political landscape, outgoing state Sen. Rooney saw defeat coming – Christopher Placek (DIERSEN: How successful were the Democrats in your precinct in a) promoting hatred against Trump and b) getting voters to punish Trump by voting for Democrats?)
https://www.dailyherald.com/news/20181117/with-changing-political-landscape-outgoing-state-sen-rooney-saw-defeat-coming
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Outgoing Republican state Sen. Tom Rooney of Rolling Meadows is staying out of elected politics for now — if not at least keeping a toe in his local GOP organization in an effort to build it back into a party of ideas, he said. But Rooney, considered a moderate in some Republican circles, said he doesn’t see an immediate path forward for the party in suburban elections. He attributed his recent narrow defeat at the polls to suburban dissatisfaction with President Donald Trump. “Absolutely no doubt people had nationalized this election, and quite frankly I spoke to people at doors who said, ‘Sorry, I’m not doing anything with an R,'” said Rooney, a Marco Rubio presidential delegate who even wrote in the Florida senator on the 2016 general election ballot. “The suburban vote is tough for Republicans at this point.”)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: In Wheaton, Mayor Michael Gresk and two at-large council members — Suzanne Fitch and John Prendiville — have terms that expire in May. Gresk, first elected in 2007, is stepping down after three terms. Prendiville and Councilman Phil Suess already have announced that they will run to succeed Gresk. That means no incumbent will be running for Prendiville’s at-large seat on the council. Fitch has said she intends to seek re-election to her at-large seat. The Wheaton City Council is composed of six representatives and the mayor. Four council members represent the city’s four voting districts, while two members and the mayor are elected at-large.)

— Rebuilding the shell-shocked Illinois GOP – Editorial
https://www.chicagotribune.com/news/opinion/editorials/ct-edit-election-illinois-future-republicans-20181107-story.html
(FROM THE EDITORIAL: What’s an Illinois Republican Party to do? Recoil and tremble? Or unite and rebuild? Here’s the first step: Mend the fracture between establishment and conservative Republicans — Rauner supporters and those who backed his primary opponent, Rep. Jeanne Ives — and begin the rebuilding process. Find common ground and bury old grudges. Coalesce around new, fresh leadership in the House and Senate. The talent is there. House and Senate members who managed to fend off challengers — Sens. Neil Anderson of Andalusia and John Curran of Downers Grove, along with Reps. Mark Batinick of Plainfield, Tom Morrison of Palatine, Tom Demmer of Dixon, Grant Wehrli of Naperville, to name a few — will have to retread this party. And they’ll have to do it without worrying about the next election. Don’t go weak. Go big — that is, as big as a minority party can go. Give the people of Illinois fresh ideas for fixing this state’s government and economy. . .The GOP can have its comeback. The process will be a grind. Given the lingering hard feelings between conservatives and the more moderate establishment, even agreeing on leadership post-Rauner will be grueling. But the infighting that has pitted Republicans against one another needs to stop. On Tuesday, that intramural acrimony within the GOP helped the Democrats. But Tuesday is history. Republicans, stop the self-destruction. Unify. Rebuild. Start now.)

https://thehill.com/homenews/campaign/414525-top-10-republican-house-seats-most-likely-to-flip-in-a-blue-wave
(FROM THE ARTICLE: PETER JAMES ROSKAM (IL-06) Democrats close campaign by hammering GOP on health care WaPo fact-checker accuses Republicans of misleading voters about fact-checks Bloomberg quietly spends millions in TV ads Roskam may have won reelection by a wide 18-point margin in 2016. But Clinton also claimed victory in his district, fueling Democratic optimism in the six-term Republican’s affluent, Chicagoland district. The Cook Political Report puts the race between Roskam and Democrat Sean Casten in the “Lean Democratic” column, and strategists say that Roskam’s prospects are shaky. Democrats are outspending Republicans to boost Casten in the district, and a recent New York Times/Siena College poll put the Democrat ahead by 2 points. Meanwhile, Illinois Gov. Bruce Rauner (R) is struggling in his bid for a second term and a poor performance on his part could trickle down the ballot, says one GOP strategist.)

— Kavanaugh arrives wounded – Robert Barnes (DIERSEN: Have you arrived wounded? I arrived wounded at GAO in 1980 when I was 31 years old. My Democrat GAO superiors had forced me to take a $19,203 pay cut in today’s dollars to transfer from IRS to GAO. My Democrat IRS superiors a) had not promote me beyond GS-12, b) disallowed my education deductions in 1978, c) got rid of my mentor in 1975, and d) disallowed my partial day per diem claims in 1974. My Democrat Post Office superiors had forced me resign in 1969 and disallowed my sick leave requests in 1969 and 1968.)
