— ‘Bring Chicago Home’ referendum to reduce homelessness through tax on high-end property sales clears City Council. Tuesday’s 32-17 vote is a major political victory for Mayor Brandon Johnson.

CRAIN’S CHICAGO BUSINESS
— Ramirez-Rosa survives censure attempt, with Johnson the deciding vote – Justin Laurence (COMMENT: Has anyone tried to censure you? I should write a book about my critics/opponents who had their operatives and their dupes try to get the Illinois Center Right Coalition (ICRC) to censure me for my GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters at its annual convention in Wheaton in 2006. I would focus on my critics/opponents who subsequently had their operatives and their dupes a) end my membership on the ICRC Steering Committee in 2007, b) end my chairmanship of TAPROOT Republicans of Illinois in 2012, and c) end my service as the Republican fundraiser for Wheaton Independence Day parades and fireworks in 2021. I would focus on my critics/opponents who have lots of religious, government, political, and/or financial clout in Wheaton, Milton Township, DuPage County, and Illinois.)

NBC5
— These are the cities people most want to move to — and Chicago is on the list. (COMMENT: Because Chicago promotes the following, those who want the following want to move to Chicago: a) dependency on government and charity, b) LGBTQ, c) abortion, d) mass/illegal immigration, e) booze, gambling, pot, and other vices, f) abolition of the Second Amendment, g) patronage, h) political affiliation discrimination, i) reverse discrimination, and j) age discrimination.)

— Several Illinois schools listed in Wall Street Journal rankings of best Midwest colleges (COMMENT: From which college(s) did you earn your degree(s)? According to my critics/opponents, degrees from non-Ivy League colleges are worthless, that is, my degrees from NIU, Loyola, DePaul, and IIT are worthless. To provide just one example, a University of Chicago MBA holder who was my superior during my last 8 years at GAO and my immediate supervisor during my last 4 years specifically and overtly treated my master’s degree in financial markets and trading from IIT was worthless. She headed the office’s group that audited federal financial industry regulators. I volunteered to work for her in 1990 because my Democrat GAO superiors had made it clear that they would never again assign me to audits of IRS. While I had master’s degrees in business and accounting, I had passed the CPA and Certified Internal Auditor examinations on my first attempt, and I was a licensed CPA, she stressed that I had taken relatively few courses in finance. Because of that, I started taking graduate evening courses in finance at IIT in 1992, and after completing 16 courses, earned a master’s degree in financial markets and trading IIT in 1997. Even though all the courses were directly job-related and I had gotten her appointed to serve on the program’s board of advisers, she treated those courses as being worthless. Further, in September of 1997, she took the lead in successfully forcing me to take GAO’s early retirement “offer” and gave my job and my preferred corner office to my Black subordinate who had shunned the program. She would not have done the aforesaid if I had been a Democrat, minority, female, younger, or veteran. She would not have done aforesaid if I had not been the office’s only active member in a class action lawsuit that charged GAO with reverse discrimination, age discrimination, and retaliation.)

— Events celebrating Native American Heritage Month in the Chicago area (COMMENT: Because one of my coworkers was a Native American, the Democrats who ran GAO’s Chicago office 1980-1997 treated him far better than they treated me even though he shared many of my bad demographics: male, non-veteran, conservative, Republican, CPA, in a traditional marriage, homeowner, non-poor, Protestant, DuPage County resident, and someone whose ancestors had been in America for a long time. He differed from me in that he was younger than I was, he had started his career with GAO, he was to the left of me, he and his wife had children and she had little or no income, he never avoided the draft like I did, he was never a union member, he never complained about political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, or age discrimination, he had only one job-related master’s degree while I had three, he had not taken, let alone passed, the Certified Internal Auditor examination like I had done, and he had not become a licensed CPA or Certified Fraud Examiner, Government Financial Manager, Financial Services Auditor, or Forensic Accountant like I had become.)

— Gun Owners in Illinois Are Now Required to Register Assault Weapons. What Happens if They Don’t? – Amanda Vinicky (COMMENT: Anticipate/expect that Democrats will a) publish names and addresses of AR-15-style gun owners who have not registered and b) demand that States Attorneys arrest and charge those owners. What is your State’s Attorney’s position on this? In 1978, IRS officially stated that it audited my education deductions because of requests from readers of Money Magazine’s February 1978 4-page article on me that painted my deductions as being improper.)
https://news.wttw.com/2023/11/07/gun-owners-illinois-are-now-required-register-assault-weapons-what-happens-if-they-don-t
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The law itself is specific about the penalties that could face gun owners who fail to file affidavits. Failure to file an endorsement affidavit is a Class A misdemeanor on the first offense. A second, or subsequent, violation of the registration requirement would be classified a Class 3 felony. As ISP puts it an FAQ web page, “persons who violate the endorsement affidavit requirements may be arrested and charged.” Note the “may.” In response to Halbrook’s question, ISP’s Suzanne Bond said that “it will be up to each individual state’s attorney in the 102 counties to decide how they will enforce that.” If a state’s attorney declines to prosecute, there may be no charges filed, no conviction, no penalty; if a state’s attorney decides to pursue charges, a gun owner could face prison time.)
