POLITICO ILLINOIS
— Chris Christie headlined an event Tuesday at University of Chicago, where he bashed President Joe Biden, former President Donald Trump, former fellow GOP presidential competitors Nikki Haley and Vivek Ramaswamy, and young people who complain too much. Asked about the November election, Christie said he expects the indictments and trials that Trump faces will hurt him on Election Day. The former governor and GOP presidential candidate from New Jersey also expects Trump will fight the election outcome if he loses, but it won’t have the impact of Jan. 6 because Trump doesn’t have the power of the presidency. What it means for the Republican Party: The MAGA voters will splinter, “and I think our party will become something different whether [Trump] wins or loses,” Christie said. “It’s going to be up to us.” – Shia Kapos

BUSINESS MANAGEMENT
— How to get people to read the company newsletter? – Alice Bumgarner (COMMENT: In 1979, when I was an IRS Revenue Officer, IRS got rid of its Chicago office employee newsletter editor because he reported that I passed the CPA examination on my first attempt. IRS Revenue Agents were furious because he also reported that many Revenue Agents had failed parts of the examination. Back then, if not still today, IRS Revenue Agents look down on IRS Revenue Officers. IRS offered me a Revenue Officer job in 1971, but not a Revenue Agent job, because I had not taken enough accounting courses.)
