CHICAGO TRIBUNE:
— FRONT PAGE: Before COVID-19, low-income college students often struggled to stay in school. The pandemic has only made it harder: ‘Either my work suffers or my school suffers.’ – ELYSSA CHERNEY (DIERSEN: I could afford to attend UIC 1966-1968 and NIU 1969-1970 a) because my outstanding parents provided me room and board 1966-1968, weekends during my first semester at NIU in 1969, and the summer of 1969 and b) because I saved money for college and for three new cars from what I earned washing dishes 1964-1966; cleaning golf shoes, chipping slag, and pumping gasoline in 1966; delivering mail 1966-1969; and working on an automobile assembly line and as a security guard in 1970.)

— Trump Takes Questions From Reporters For 1st Time Since Election Day – FRANCO ORDOÑEZ (DIERSEN: According to my RINO critics/opponents, I want to ask their RINO candidates questions that will cause their RINO candidates to lose elections.

REAL CLEAR POLITICS
— DIERSEN HEADLINE: Ever-increasingly, Democrats call for more preference to be given to Democrat minorities and to Democrat females, that is, ever-increasingly, Democrats call for more discrimination against Republicans who are White and/or male. According to Democrats, the more successful or unsuccessful that a Republican White male is, the more that Republican White male is a White supremacist, Nazi, KKK member, hater, racist, sexist, bigot, and even worse things.

— The Trumpiness of the GOP’s Future: Five Key Questions – ROBERT VERBRUGGEN (DIERSEN: What does the future hold for the Illinois Republican Party (IRP), your Republican county party organization, and your Republican township/ward party organization?

NEW YORK TIMES
— The Rich Kids Who Want to Tear Down Capitalism Socialist-minded millennial heirs are trying to live their values by getting rid of their money. – Zoë Beery (DIERSEN: Were you a rich kid? When I was younger, my critics/opponents painted me as being a rich kid a) because my parents sent me to Trinity Lutheran Grade School in Crete 1953-1961 and then to Hope Lutheran Grade School in Park Forest 1961-1962 to stay with the Missouri Synod and b) because I bought a new 1966 Pontiac Tempest Sprint in 1966. In my defense, I paid for that car with money that I earned washing dishes for the minimum wage in the basement of the S.S. Kresges in Chicago Heights 1964-1966.)

NEW REPUBLIC
— America Is Run by Geezers In an election between two septuagenarians, the elderly dominated turnout like never before—more than offsetting a surge in the youth vote. – Timothy Noah (DIERSEN: What demographics do you share with Trump and Biden? I share the following: old, White, male, non-poor, gun owner, draft avoider, Christian, past/present federal employee, and our ancestors have been in America for a long time. In addition, Biden and I are Corvette owners. But my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes promote discrimination against those who have demographics like Trump, Biden, and I do. But look at all the votes that Trump and Biden got. My critics/opponents want the Illinois Republican Party (IRP), DuPage County Republican Central Committee (DCRCC), and Milton Township Republican Organization (MTRO) to promote ONLY those who are one or more of the following: young, minority, female, poor, non-gun owner, veteran, non-Christian, and/or if their ancestors have not been in America for a long time. Further, my critics/opponents want the IRP, DCRCC, and MTRO to promote only those who reject the traditional family, right to life, immigration, illegal drugs, Second Amendment, and/or equal opportunity (no race or gender based preference giving) planks in the IRP and/or Republican Party platforms.)
