CHICAGO TRIBUNE
— AS THE DEMOCRAT PARTY’S STRANGLEHOLD ON ILLINOIS, ON COOK COUNTY, AND ON
CHICAGO TIGHTENS: Meet the people working to kick Chicago out of Illinois –
Cindy Dampier (DIERSEN: Ever-increasingly, the Democrats who run Illinois, Cook
County, and Chicago make it clear that they want each and every individual,
organization, and company that is a Trump supporter, Protestant, conservative,
patriotic, Republican, American, White, male, older, rich, gun owner, German
American, draft avoider, and/or those whose ancestors have been in America for
a long time TO LEAVE ILLINOIS.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: Over
the past two years, the movement to divide the state of Illinois into two
states — Cook County in one, the other 101 counties in the other — has been
gaining support. In February, as Gov. J.B. Pritzker was pursuing an agenda for
Illinois that included new tax and abortion policies, Halbrook refiled a
resolution in the state legislature, HR 101, in which he and six co-sponsors
asked the U.S. Congress to recognize Chicago as the 51st state. “I hear it a
lot from my constituents, that we need to be separate from Chicago,” Halbrook
says. “I thought yep, this is what we need to do.” The resolution, which could
be dismissed as simple political maneuvering — plays big at home, but has scant
chance of seeing daylight in the legislature — is also backed by several
grassroots groups agitating for separation. One of them, Illinois Separation,
founded by Collin Cliburn, of Athens, has 24,000 followers on Facebook, and
growing. Cliburn is also holding events at venues from wineries and gun shops
to community centers around the state through August and September to
capitalize on the cause’s momentum.)
CHICAGO SUN-TIMES
— Pritzker vows to ‘root’ out parents scamming system for college financial
aid for their kids: ‘Shame on you’ “If people are defrauding the system, these
wealthy parents are literally committing fraud here,” the governor said. “We
need to go find them, root it out and make sure that those dollars go to the
right people.” – Tina Sfondeles (DIERSEN: How much debt did/could your parents
take on to pay for your college expenses? I never expected my outstanding
parents to take on any debt to pay for my college expenses. My father fought
type 1 diabetes from age 14, he was the first of his ancestors to earn a high
school diploma, he never attended college, he worked in the office of a nasty
chemical plant, he almost always worked second jobs to pay the family’s bills,
and he did not buy a new car until he was 45 and it was a bottom of the line
Chevy. My mother never attended high school.)

— HARDCOPY ARTICLE TITLE: ‘She won’t take my calls’ Since taking office May 20, Lightfoot has not
returned Wilson’s calls, he said. Instead, Lightfoot sent him a text saying
she’s ‘too busy running the city to call me back.’ (DIERSEN: In politics, to
not return a constituent’s phone call is to dump that constituent. I should write
a book about past and present politicians a) who have represented me at the
federal, state, county, township, and local levels and b) who have not returned
my phone calls.)

me in 1972, 1973, and 1974 and b) GAO hired me in Chicago in 1980 and promoted
me in 1986 BECAUSE I AM A WHITE MALE. In fact, a) IRS hired me because it could
not find a qualified Democrat, minority, female, or veteran who would take the
job and b) GAO hired me because it could not find a qualified Democrat,
minority, female, younger person, or veteran who would take the job.)

https://www.wsj.com/articles/the-college-financial-aid-guardianship-loophole-and-the-woman-who-thought-it-up-11564595984
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The
college consultant who developed a strategy to help wealthy clients access
scholarships designed for the poor said she came up with the idea after seeing
how much debt parents were taking on to send their children to college. Lora
Georgieva, owner of a consulting company called Destination College, said she
has been explaining to families for the past two years that if they legally
transferred the guardianship of their college-bound children to a friend or
family member, the teens would be considered independent for the purposes of
financial aid. That means they wouldn’t have to declare their parents’ income
or assets, making it possible for them to collect state, federal and college
scholarships reserved for students from poor families. The strategy was the
topic of a Page One article Tuesday in The Wall Street Journal. Ms. Georgieva
hadn’t responded to requests for comment for that article, but subsequently
spoke Tuesday night with a Journal reporter about her operation. The U.S.
Education Department condemned Ms. Georgieva’s actions and said it was moving
to stop them.)
