— How the fight over Kavanaugh in the Senate could more directly impact the race for House CNN Digital Expansion 2018 – Rebecca Berg and Dan Merica
https://www.cnn.com/2018/09/27/politics/kavanaugh-senate-impact-house/index.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: In the race against Republican Rep. Peter Roskam in the Chicago suburbs, Democrat Sean Casten has been honing in on Kavanaugh since his nomination in July, initially focusing on concerns that Kavanaugh might vote to overturn Roe v. Wade. Decades ago, Roskam’s district was represented by Henry Hyde, the namesake of the Hyde Amendment restricting federal funding for abortions. But the district’s complexion has shifted since Hyde’s time, and Casten has sought to capitalize on a growing pro-choice contingent. Casten has also used Kavanaugh’s nomination to criticize Roskam as a rubber stamp for the President; this week, the Casten campaign has promoted an ad on Facebook calling on Roskam to withdraw his support for the embattled nominee. But the dramatic hearing Thursday, including Ford’s tearful testimony, has upped the ante further. “I think it means we’re going to keep the pressure on (Roskam), that people should believe women,” said Greg Bales, Casten’s campaign manager. “She (Ford) showed incredible courage, and Peter Roskam doesn’t have the courage to stand up to Trump.” Roskam’s campaign did not respond to a request for comment. “This is an important issue,” Bales added, “and we’re going to continue bringing attention to it.”)

To meet the aforesaid quotas, goals, and targets, will Democrats encourage potential and current federal employees a) to change their race to minority and b) to change their gender to female?)

— Kavanaugh High-School Friend Mark Judge, a Potential Key to Many Questions, Is Absent Writer has refused to appear for hearing, and says he doesn’t remember events Christine Blasey Ford alleges – Alex Leary and Siobhan Hughes (DIERSEN: What did you do during the summer before your senior year in high school? I worked full-time for the minimum wage for S.S. Kresges in Chicago Heights either washing dishes or doing stock boy work. I lived with my parents and brother in Crete. I drove a 1958 Chevy BelAir. I saved all the money that I could to buy a new car to use to commute to classes at UIC the next year.)
https://www.wsj.com/articles/kavanaugh-high-school-friend-mark-judge-a-potential-key-to-many-questions-is-absent-1538089901
(FROM THE ARTICLE: In his book, Mr. Judge wrote of being “completely hooked” on alcohol the summer before his senior year, a disorder that he wrote he brought to his job bagging groceries at the local supermarket. “Invariably I would be hungover—or still drunk—when I got to work at seven in the morning, and I spent most of the first hour just trying to hold myself together.” Mr. Judge graduated high school in 1983, which would have made 1982 the summer before his senior year. That is the same year that Dr. Ford has suspected the alleged attack may have occurred, although she said she could better pinpoint the time frame if she knew when Mr. Judge was working at a local Safeway grocery store, where she ran into him.)
— New Laws Aim to Make Work Hours More Predictable Research indicates regular schedules benefit staffers’ well-being; complications for employers – Rachel Feintzeig (DIERSEN: While I worked part-time for the Park Forest Post Office 1966-1969, I was “on call” 24 hours a day and 7 days a week. Frequently, I was called in to work because my coworkers had called in sick or just failed to show up for work. Even though I would have available to work every Friday, every Saturday, every Sunday, every Monday, every holiday, and every day that NIU would not be in session, my Democrat Park Forest Post Office superiors forced me to resign in September of 1969 saying that I would not be available to work enough days. They would not have done that if I had been a Democrat, a minority, a female, or a veteran. In retrospect, with benefit of hindsight, I should have filed a grievance to keep my job. But my Democrat superiors were doing everything that they could to make the Park Forest Post Office a “hostile workplace” for me. They stressed that I was avoiding the draft by seeking and obtaining student draft deferments. Virtually all my coworkers, supervisors, and superiors were veterans.)

I was holding a GS-12 position at IRS that my Democrat IRS superiors wanted to give to one of my GS-11 Democrat coworkers who was a minority and/or a female. Firestone Stores did not make me a counteroffer when Oldsmobile offered me a job in early 1971 when I was 22 years old. My Firestone Stores boss did not approve of my demographics, especially my being Republican, a draft avoider, 100% German national origin, and a Missouri Synod Lutheran. Nevertheless, he did let me work part-time for him until the end of 1972.)
