They hint/imply/argue/shout that I have relatively good health because I was born with a silver spoon in my mouth, because I have always been privileged, because my parents were filthy rich, because I avoided the draft, because the federal government grossly overpaid me, because my wife has always had a good job, because we gave up trying to have children, because we did not adopt, because we did not become foster parents, and because my retirement benefits are too generous.  They dismiss the fact that I have never been a drinker or a smoker and that I have never used an illegal drug.)

CENTRAL ILLINOIS PROUD
— What federal government can get from your voter file  Most states spurn Trump commission – CNN  (DIERSEN: What do/did your superiors, supervisors, coworkers, and subordinates think of your political affiliation?  Democrats run the federal government. While worked for the federal government for almost 30 years 1966-1969 and 1971-1997, virtually all my superiors, supervisors, coworkers, and subordinates were Democrats who used my being a Republican against me. Since at least the 1960s, patronage, political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, age discrimination, and retaliation have been rampant in the federal government. GAO hired me in 1980 because it could not find a qualified Democrat, minority, female, younger person, or veteran who would take the job.  IRS hired me in 1971 because it could not find a qualified Democrat, minority, female, or veteran who would take the job.  The Post Office hired me in 1966 because it could not find a qualified Democrat, minority, female, or veteran who would take the job. Because I have always been a Republican, were it not for federal civil service protections, a) the Post Office would NOT have hired me in 1966 or let me work there for almost 3 years, b) IRS would NOT have hired me in 1971 or let me work there for almost 9 years, c) IRS would NOT have promoted me in 1972, 1973, or 1974, d) GAO would NOT have hired me in 1980 or let me work there for almost 18 years, and e) GAO would NOT have promoted me in 1986.)

How a person actually voted in an election is never recorded, though which ballot they requested in a primary election may be.)

CAPITOL FAX
— DIERSEN HEADLINE: Illinois Republicans get from the Democrats the content (SEE BELOW) of the Illinois House Republican memo concerning abusive social media comments.
https://capitolfax.com/2017/07/06/this-is-real-and-cannot-be-dismissed/
(FROM THE POSTING: This memo was sent to House Republicans yesterday afternoon. There is a real and legitimate fear brewing…

 

Dear House Republican Members,

 

[The HGOP’s] Digital Media Manager, has prepared the information below to help guide members who experience abusive social media comments.

 

What to do if you receive threats on Facebook, Twitter or other social media accounts:

 

* If you feel the threat is imminent call 911
* Report threats of violence immediately to State Police at this phone number: 877-xxx-xxxx
* Then report to social media platform – here’s how
* Facebook:https://www.facebook.com/help/181495968648557?helpref=faq_content
* Twitter:https://support.twitter.com/articles/20169998#whatshouldido
* Or, ask your communications staffer for help
Others ways to manage posts or comments:

 

* Delete comments containing profanity, name calling, or libelous statements.
* Hiding a comment will leave it visible only to the person who posted it and their friends.
* Like or comment on positive comments – which will push them to the top of news feed. This is a very good strategy.
* Ban individuals who repeatedly post abusive comments especially if they are not constituents.

 

Call me if you have any questions or issues.)

AMERICAN FREE PRESS
— Company Sued for Anti-White Bias  Tech-worker’s lawsuit alleges India-based company in U.S. racially discriminates – John Friend
http://www.americanfreepress.net/PDF/Issue%2027_28%202017%20AFP.pdf (Page 17)
(FROM THE ARTICLE: As readers of this newspaper are fully aware, white Americans have been targeted for discrimination and demonization for decades now. With openly anti-white public policies institutionalized across the country—affirmative action, diversity, quotas, and forced racial integration, for example—and a distorted, highly weaponized historical narrative that depicts whites as evil and oppressive, whites now regularly find themselves in the crosshairs of the hostile, anti-white forces ruling this country. In reality, though, whites are blatantly discriminated against and targeted for ridicule, slander, and other abuse—including physical assault, rape, and murder—on a daily basis. Case in point: A former high-tech employee at Infosys, an India-based technology consulting firm with offices across the United States, has filed a lawsuit against his former employer alleging that the company is openly hostile to white workers and favors those from India and other parts of South Asia. Erin Green, who worked as a supervisor at Infosys in its Plano, Texas office and rose to the rank of head of global immigration, was terminated in June 2016 for allegedly violating the company’s code of conduct for utilizing his work computer for personal use. Green, a white man, maintains that non-Indian and non-Asian employees were systematically discriminated against, berated, and denied raises and promotional opportunities. Green is one of many former employees and job applicants of the tech giant who have filed lawsuits against Infosys alleging improper treatment and outright discrimination.)

CBS MINNESOTA
— What Health Benefits Do Members Of Congress Get? – Heather Brown  (DIERSEN: What health insurance coverage have you had? What health insurance do you have?  What health insurance coverage will you have?  My critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes have always been beyond furious a) that I had Federal Employee Health Benefits (FEHB) coverage while I was a federal employee for almost 30 years, b) that my wife and I have had FEHB coverage since I retired in 1997, and c) that my wife and I will have FEHB coverage until we die.)
http://minnesota.cbslocal.com/2017/07/05/good-question-what-health-benefits-do-members-of-congress-get/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: “What’s interesting about it, while most people think Congress gets some cushy deal in terms of healthcare, guess what,” says David Schultz, a professor of political science at Hamline University. “By law, they have to buy their health care through the health care exchanges.” Members of Congress used to have the plan that’s currently given federal employees called the Federal Employee Health Benefits Program (FEHB).  Schultz says that plan is comparable to what a large corporation would offer to its employees. In 2014, that all changed. When Congress passed the Affordable Care Act, it decided Members of Congress – and their staffs – should be required to get their insurance benefits through the ACA exchanges. Members and their staffs are given the choice of 57 plans through the Washington, D.C. exchanges.  According to Adam Hudson, a spokesman for DC Health Link, that adds up to about 11,000 people. At the time of the ACA debate, Rep. Tom Coburn (R-OK) said, “What’s good for the goose is good for the gander. If we’re going to create a government-run plan, then let’s put us in it.” According to the Congressional Research Service, the employer (the government) pays between 72 percent and 75 percent of the premium. That’s slightly more than the average of 83 percent covered by large employers and even with the average of 72 percent covered by small employers. Some Members choose not to take the employer contribution or choose to donate it.)
