— FRONT PAGE TOP OF FOLD WITH PICTURE IN NAPERVILLE SUN: DuPage GOP to launch vote-by-mail pilot program to combat Democratic strides
https://www.chicagotribune.com/2025/06/12/dupage-naperville-republican-democrat-vote-mail/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: To date, significantly more Democratic primary voters are on the county’s permanent vote-by-mail list, DuPage County Chief Deputy Clerk Adam Johnson. As of Wednesday, there was a total of 98,413 voters on the county’s permanent vote-by-mail list, according to Johnson. That number divides into voters who have opted to receive mail-ballots for general elections only and those who have requested to also receive primary ballots, he said. The latter is how the county can glean the partisan divide in its vote-by-mail program as voters must request either a Democratic or Republican primary ballot. Current numbers show that 47,110 Democratic primary voters have signed up for the program compared to 19,525 Republican voters, Johnson said. Those totals have also grown since the 2022 primary election, which was the first in which the permanent vote-by-mail program was offered. In 2022, there were 20,482 Democratic primary voters compared to 8,009 Republican voters.)

— Chicago’s Springfield delegation socks it to the city’s taxpayers with reckless pension bill. Who do you know who is in line to get a pension or is getting a pension? Ever-increasingly, they are demonized, denigrated, and condemned. I got in line for a Civil Service Retirement System (CSRS) pension when I was 18 in 1966. I have been getting a CSRS pension since I was 49 in 1997. In my defense, I paid 7% of my federal salary into the CSRS. In my defense, if my Democrat GAO superiors had not forced me to retire, I might still be working for GAO and paying into the CSRS. Constructively, so far, in today’s dollars, my Democrat GAO superiors have forced CSRS to pay me $1.85 million to stop me from working for GAO.

— If ICE raids persist, there will be ‘nobody’ left to nanny the children and mow the lawns. If there had been as many illegals when I was young as there are now, they would have gotten the jobs that I got. I did yard work, delivered newspapers, washed dishes, cleaned golf shoes, chipped slag, pumped gasoline, etc. My critics/opponents cannot say that. Their parents bought them cars, paid their college expenses, got them jobs, etc. I had to work my way through college. I should write about my critics/opponents.

— Senate Confirms Auctioneer Billy Long as IRS Chief. Former Republican House lawmaker who promoted controversial tax breaks will run the agency. Democrats run IRS. I was one of that last Republicans IRS hired in 1971 when I was 22. If I had been a Democrat, IRS would have promoted me into its Senior Executive Service before I was 40 notwithstanding my late start. I earned an MBA when I was 27. I passed the CPA examination on my first attempt when I was 30. I earned a master’s degree in accounting when I was 31. I passed the Certified Internal Auditor examination on my first attempt when I was 32. I became a licensed CPA when I was 32.

I erroneously thought that I could not pass the CPA examination. Because I did not start taking graduate accounting courses until 1976, because I did not take and pass the CPA examination until 1979, because I did not earn a master’s degree in accounting until 1980, because I did not pass the Certified Internal Auditor Examination until 1981, and because I did not become a licensed CPA until 1981, the accounting profession wrote me off as being too old to have a successful career in accounting. Nevertheless, in today’s dollars, my IRS salary was $55,850 in 1971 and $112,280 in 1980 and my GAO salary was $153,151 in 1997.
