— Victims wanted — no experience necessary, apply within – J.A. Frascino (COMMENT: Ever-increasingly, Democrats shout at those who are the following that they are victims of Republicans: minority, female, younger, LGBTQ, veteran, unmarried, renters, those who have less money than others, those who have financial, health, and/or other problems, non-Christian, non-Protestant, non-Italian American non-German American, those whose ancestors have not been in America for a long time, citizens of foreign countries, criminals, boozers, gamblers, stoners, etc.)
https://www.americanthinker.com/blog/2023/01/victims_wanted__no_experience_necessary_apply_within.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: When it’s not creating social injustices to overcome, the Left is busy creating victims to maintain its voter base. In contemporary America, the Democratic Party voter base is composed primarily of individuals who perceive themselves to be disadvantaged, disenfranchised, marginalized, or in some fashion, left out. They feel, in some sense, victimized. With the actual numbers of those truly victimized declining markedly in recent decades, the party needs to perpetuate perceived victimhood to maintain its political appeal. The party excels in generating victims over a broad spectrum of societal factions through identity politics and its D-E-I agenda. People of color. Victims of white privilege. Any failings they may experience are due solely to an oppressive social structure based in white supremacy. They are entitled to equity-based advancement and, as now proposed in California, reparations, in return for loyalty at the ballot box. Women. Victims of misogyny and patriarchy, even though they now surpass males in educational achievement and the number of women in the workforce now equals or slightly exceeds the number of men. The overturning of Roe v. Wade has exacerbated their victimhood. Access to safe abortion is a human right! Women lacking access to abortion are victims. Aborted fetuses are not — they can’t vote. “My body, my choice!“ is the mantra. One wonders what “my body, my choice” has to do with a fetus’s body? Does “my body, my choice” sanction suicide? The LGBTQ community. They are victims of heterosexual bigotry (although being homosexual didn’t seem to hold back Alexander the Great, Leonardo da Vinci, Tim Cook, Oscar Wilde, Elton John, etc.). Under wokeism’s exalting of gender dysphoria, 33% of students at liberal arts colleges now identify as LGBTQ. 21% of Gen Z are self-declared LGBTQ. The incidence of those who identify as something other than hetero has risen from 3.5% in 2012 to 7.1% in the general public. Not all this sharp escalation can be reasonably attributed to an increased comfort with “coming out,” but is more certainly a consequence of woke activism. Our youth. Herein lies the greatest source of potential victims. First, strip them of societal connectivity. Debase America, patriotism, religion, family structure, gender identity, even commitment to a first name. Turn them all into “Rolling Stones” — “on their own, with no direction home, like a complete unknown.” Make them insecure and vulnerable. Then coddle and indulge them. Teach them that the slightest affronts are catastrophes. Teach them to flee from microaggressions to safe spaces. Suspend classes and postpone finals following Trump’s election. Create a generation of victimized snowflakes who can turn only to a nurturing political elite for protection. It’s working. Joe Biden garnered 65% of Gen Z votes. Illegal immigrants. They are all asylum-seeking victims of political prosecution and/or human rights violations in their native lands. No. They are all potential Democratic voters, at least this generation. Criminals. Victims of the social system. Incarceration only leads to recidivism — and inmates can’t vote. Prosecutorial leniency is the better option. Whites. Mainstream whites are not victims. However, woke preaching teaches them that their success is unearned and inequitable, a product of white privilege and unconscious bias. This results in a cadre of guilt-ridden, virtue-signaling whites — today’s liberals — who repent by supporting the woke progressive agenda. Marginalized white residents of rural areas such as Appalachia also do not qualify for victimhood. Possessed of white privilege, it is only through their own failings that they are underachievers. They have to be written off as irredeemable MAGA voters. In 21st-century America, victimhood is largely a state of mind. If Prince Harry and Meghan can be victims, anyone can! All the party need do to lock in its base is keep the glass half empty for those inclined to be dissatisfied or dissident on the one hand, while offering them “hope and change” with the other. That leaves it free to pursue any inane policy it chooses. Zero CO2 emissions by 2050, anyone?)

BIZ PAC REVIEW
— ‘A little tear’: MacCallum predicts how Statue of Liberty would react to migrant ‘mayhem’ in NYC – Chris Donaldson (COMMENT: Ever-increasingly, Democrats, Libertarians, Greens, Independents, and RINOs promote illegal immigration and paint illegals as being GOD-LIKE.)
https://www.bizpacreview.com/2023/01/14/a-little-tear-maccallum-predicts-how-statue-of-liberty-would-react-to-migrant-mayhem-in-nyc-1324765/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Fox News host Martha MacCallum reacted to a whistleblower account of illegal immigrants who are housed in a swanky New York City hotel being picky about their free gourmet food and spending their time drinking, getting high, having sex and engaging in domestic violence by suggesting that such behavior would bring a tear to the Statue of Liberty’s eye. . .And I’m thinking there’s a little tear coming down the Statue of Liberty’s head when she hears that the food is not exactly what they would like and there is mayhem going on in these hotels, where people are also, according to this whistleblower, having sex in the hallways, getting into fights, domestic abuse is taking place,” she said. . .On Wednesday’s edition of “The Ingraham Angle,” Rodriguez shared a video of trash bags of uneaten, fresh “good food” that is rotting because the picky “migrants don’t want to eat them.” “They said they don’t like it,” he said of the discarded dinners. “This is all food that is going to waste. This is insane.” “The chaos that we see at the Row today is [caused] by migrants being drunk, drinking all day, smoking marijuana [and] consuming drugs,” Rodriguez added, noting that the hotel is struggling with an explosion of “domestic violence” among the illegals with young people “having sex in the stairs,” and fighting with hotel security personnel. “The form in which they keep their rooms is horrendous. They don’t clean it, they don’t fold their clothes. They’re hoarding clothes, they’re hoarding whatever they can hoard,” he said, explaining that the employees have lost control over the hotel and the migrants act like they own the place. “There’s no accountability.” “The ones that have all the power are the migrants. The hotel workers lost their power in the hotel,” Rodriguez said.)

They did NOT force me to retire because I fail/refused to carry out their preference-giving orders. I should write a book about the tremendous preference that I gave my Democrat GAO subordinates who were minority, female, younger, veteran, non-Protestant, non-German American, and/or those whose ancestors had not been in America for a long time.

MODERN PATRIOTS
— Jonathan Turley Takes Biden Apart Over Classified Documents and Corvette Standard (COMMENT: I have owned my 1972 Corvette since 1971. I should write a book about my Democrat IRS and GAO superiors, supervisors, coworkers, and subordinates who demonized, denigrated, and condemned Corvettes and Corvette owners the most.)
https://modernpatriots.com/jonathan-turley-takes-biden-apart-over-classified-documents-and-corvette-standard
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Biden responded to this with a horrible response, claiming that the classified documents were kept next to his Corvette. “My Corvette is in a locked garage okay?” It’s not like they’re out on the streets. Jonathan Turley, a George Washington Law School professor, was moved by this. Biden was ridiculed for his absurd response. He said, “The corvette standards are not in classified protocols ” and observed, “The White House counsel could now cite the corvette’s long-standing slogan: Like a car but better.” . . . It is amazing that Joe Biden would act like being right next to his Corvette makes him cool. He took who knows how many classified papers and had them scattered all over the place, including in insecure locations. How could this man ever comment on President Donald Trump, who was granted the right to presidential records and kept them in a vault in his home? This was crazy! Here’s Joe Biden pulling his Corvette from the garage where it was kept in a 2020 campaign video. As you can see, he has boxes on the right and storage space to his left. This is where classified documents were stored. It is a heap of junk, and there’s no place you would want classified documents open to the streets. Do they sit next to an old broken lamp? This gives Joe great assurance about the “Corvette Standard.”)

— The Death of Merit – Scott Hogenson (COMMENT: My Democrat IRS and GAO superiors were furious when I did the following because it made it more difficult for them to promote Democrat minorities and females over me who had not earned job-related master’s degrees and professional certifications and licenses. I earned an MBA from Loyola in 1976 when I was 27 years old. I passed the CPA examination on my first attempt in 1979. I earned a master’s degree in accounting from DePaul in 1980. I passed the Certified Internal Auditor examination on my first attempt in 1981. I became a licensed CPA in 1981. I became a Certified Fraud Examiner in 1990, Government Financial Manager in 1994, Financial Services Auditor in 1996, and Forensic Accountant in 1997. I earned a master’s degree in financial markets and trading from IIT in 1997.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: America has always been a land of opportunity. That’s because our nation was founded as a meritocracy, the wellspring of excellence. This concept is central to American exceptionalism. The Declaration of Independence and the Constitution were written in a time when almost the entire world was governed by systems of monarchy, absolutism or outright dictatorships that rarely, if ever, recognized individual merit. In this regard, America’s founding was indeed exceptional. Leftists detest America’s meritocracy. The reason is simple: recognizing merit means there will be winners and losers, a fact that motivates all of us to try harder with a belief in and reliance upon oneself. Those who exhibit greater merit – through hard work, resourcefulness, perseverance, innate aptitude and so forth – usually enjoy more success. Meritocracy motivates us to individualism and excellence, and is hardwired into the DNA of the human race. The polar opposite of meritocracy is equality of outcome, which requires the entire society, save for political and cultural elites, to exist at the lowest common denominator. It is the foundation of socialist and communist dictatorships, enforced through violence, because totalitarians know that living life at the lowest common denominator is contrary to human nature and natural law. It is no secret that merit is not now, nor has it ever been, universally recognized. The first lesson my father taught me as a very young child was “life isn’t fair,” and time has proved him correct. But the periodic unfairness of life doesn’t mean meritocracies are bad. To paraphrase Winston Churchill, meritocracies are the worst form of society except for all the others that have been tried.)

I would focus on those who lost elections and who blamed me and who blamed my GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters the most for their losses. It is called scapegoating.

GAZETTE
— COMMENT: Democrats say “What employers can do about resume padding or omission. The case of George Santos’ resume brings reminders for employers.” What about including on resumes actions taken to oppose political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, and age discrimination? I became an active member in a class action lawsuit in 1988 that charged my Democrat GAO superiors with reverse discrimination, age discrimination, and retaliation. I ever-increasingly complained about political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, and age discrimination while I worked for GAO 1980-1997, IRS 1971-1980, and the Post Office 1966-1969. What about including on resumes adverse actions? My Democrat GAO superiors a) forced me to take their early retirement “offer” in 1997 when I was 49 years old, b) never promoted me beyond GS-13, c) delayed my promotions to GS-11, GS-12, and GS-13, d) always ranked me in the bottom half of my coworkers for pay-for-performance purposes, e) forced the GAO manager to retire in 1987 who had promoted me in 1986, gotten me assigned to audits of IRS in 1986, and arranged for my transfer from IRS in 1980, f) kept me off audits of IRS for all but 3 of the almost 18 years that I worked for GAO, and g) forced me to take a $21,863/year pay cut in today’s dollars, a downgrade from GS-12 Step 5 to GS-9 Step 10, to transfer from IRS to GAO in 1980. My Democrat IRS superiors a) never promoted me beyond GS-12, b) disallowed my education deductions in 1978, c) forced the IRS manager to transfer to Texas in 1975 who had promoted me in 1974, 1973, and 1972, and d) disallowed my travel vouchers in 1974. My Democrat Firestone Stores boss rudely fired me when I gave him my 2-week notice that I had accepted a job offer from Oldsmobile in 1971. My Democrat Post Office superiors a) forced me to resign in 1969 and b) disallowed my sick leave requests in 1969 and 1968.)

— COMMENT: A hate-filled White-hating White-hater asks “Critical Race Theory?” and says “No, Critical Race Fact” and says “Critical Race Theory researchers have gathered enough evidence by now that the dynamics they explore are a hard reality.” In my defense, while all my ancestors immigrated during the 1840s and 1850s, they always lived in northeast Illinois. None of them lived in slave states. None of them were employers. The men worked in brick factory, were farmers, operated a hardware store, and worked in the office of a chemical plant. The women were homemakers. None of them owned slaves. None of them directly benefitted from slavery. None of them fought for the Confederate Army. On my father’s side, they lived in Crete which was a stop on the underground railroad. A relative of one of my ancestors fought for the Union Army. I have his Civil War sword.)
