— A true gift from my family: Christmas in the ICU – John Kass (DIERSEN: My father fought type 1 diabetes from age 14. He died suddenly of heart failure in 1969 when he was 47 and I was 21. My mother always focused on his blood sugar level. I remember times when she had him taken to the hospital fearing that he was falling into a coma.)
https://www.chicagotribune.com/news/columnists/kass/ct-met-diabetes-diagnosis-kass20190108-story.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: As they pushed me into the car, I remember shouting, weakly: Nobody tells me what to do! But they didn’t listen. I don’t remember much else except being in the ICU with IVs in my arms. That first night, my blood sugar levels reached 976. The doctors said I could easily have fallen into a coma where my brain, kidneys and other organs would have been damaged, perhaps beyond repair. You have diabetes, said a doctor. “Diabetes? No! That’s impossible!” I reportedly told the docs in the ICU.)

In 1980, to get a job working for GAO, I suffered a $19,203/year (26%) pay cut in today’s dollars. I had worked for IRS for almost 9 years, the last 5 1/2 years of which at the GS-12 Step 1-5 levels, currently $81,071-$91,880/year. I had passed the CPA examination on my first attempt in 1979. I had almost completed the requirements for a master’s degree in accounting from DePaul. I had earned an MBA from Loyola in 1976. I had earned a bachelor’s degree in management from NIU in 1970.)

These “moderates” focus on driving out of the IRP those like me who a) support the traditional family, right to life, immigration, and Second Amendment planks in the IRP platform, b) support the illegal drugs and equal opportunity (no race or gender based preference giving) planks in the Republican Party platform, and c) support the Milton Township Republican Central Committee resolution against video gambling.)

— Dems look to chip away at Trump tax reform law – NAOMI JAGODA
https://thehill.com/policy/finance/424452-dems-look-to-chip-away-at-trump-tax-reform-law
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Already this year, New York Reps. Nita Lowey (D) and Pete King (R) have offered a bill to restore the full state and local tax (SALT) deduction, which was capped at $10,000 in the 2017 tax law. . .Efforts from Democrats to repeal the SALT deduction cap could in particular face resistance from Republicans, as well as from some on the left. Critics note the deduction largely benefits high earners. Maura Quint, executive director of the progressive group Tax March, said that her group doesn’t want to see “any stand-alone measure” to restore the full SALT deduction. She said lawmakers should focus on raising taxes on the wealthy before discussing the SALT deduction.)

In many ways, the IRP, the DuPage County Republican Central Committee (DCRCC), and the Milton Township Republican Central Committee (MTRCC) act like major donors and potential major donors have demanded that they a) dump Trump, b) dump the traditional family, right to life, immigration, Second Amendment, and other planks in the IRP platform, c) dump the illegal drugs and equal opportunity (no race or gender based preference giving), and other planks in the Republican Party platform, d) dump the MTRCC resolution against video gambling, and e) dump those who support the aforesaid.

McKinnon (DIERSEN: Those on the left do not want me to include links in GOPUSA ILLINOIS emails to articles a) that promote the traditional family, right to life, immigration, Second Amendment, and other planks in the Illinois Republican Party platform, b) that promote the illegal drugs, equal opportunity (no race or gender based preference giving), and other planks in the Republican Party platform, c) that promote the Milton Township Republican Central Committee resolution against video gambling, and d) that oppose promoting LGBTQ activity, abortion, mass/illegal immigration, abolition of the First and Second Amendments, booze, gambling, pot, and other vices, patronage, political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, age discrimination, and retaliation.)
https://www.wsj.com/articles/facebook-twitter-solicit-outside-groups-often-on-the-right-to-referee-political-speech-11546966779
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The world’s biggest social-media companies, under fire for failing to police content on their sites, have invited an array of outside groups to help them figure out who should be banned and what’s considered unacceptable. That solution is creating a new set of problems—public fights, complaints and legal battles. Silicon Valley giants Facebook Inc., Twitter Inc. and Google’s YouTube unit have made a concerted push to seek out input from hundreds of groups, a growing number of which lean to the right. The companies have become receptive to behind-the-scenes lobbying as well. Among the initiatives, Facebook has privately sought advice from the Family Research Council, a conservative Christian public-policy group, and its president Tony Perkins, according to people familiar with those meetings. Twitter’s Chief Executive Jack Dorsey recently hosted dinners with conservatives, including Grover Norquist, the founder and president of Americans for Tax Reform, which advocates for lower taxes. Advisers on the left include the Southern Poverty Law Center, a civil-rights group that keeps a list of hate groups. For users frustrated by the lack of clarity around how these companies make decisions, the added voices have made matters even murkier. Meetings between companies and their unofficial advisers are rarely publicized, and some outside groups and individuals have to sign nondisclosure agreements. And in many cases, posts that are hateful to one group are considered fair game—or even uncomfortable truths—to others on the opposite end of the spectrum, opening a whole new arena to continue the political and ideological fights that are often a staple of social media.)
