https://www.dailyherald.com/discuss/20210522/editorial-time-to-pass-news-literacy-bill
(FROM THE ARTICLE: An informed citizenry is the heart of a democracy. Without it, we the people — as the architects of our government — are subject to manipulation, unsound decisions, poor choices. News literacy matters. And particularly in this era of rumor, social media lies and falsehoods, algorithmic digital marketing, Orwellian politics and yes, news media bias, it has become central. . .Yes, news literacy matters, as we have said in this space in the past. So we’re disappointed that legislation in Springfield to require a news literacy curriculum in our schools has become another partisan issue. We do not understand that. We do not understand why Republicans would oppose citizenship education. Our schools are meant to prepare our kids for the adult world. In a democracy, what preparation is more important?)

Ever-increasingly, conservative-haters crow about their success in getting rid of conservative once and for all, and especially conservatives who are law enforcement officers, Trump supporters, patriotic, Republican, American, White, male, older, heterosexual, married, non-poor, gun owners, Christian, Protestant, Italian American, German American, and/or those whose ancestors have been in America for a long time. Ever-increasingly, conservative-haters a) crow about their success in getting rid of conservatives in Illinois, in DuPage County, in DuPage County’s 4th District, in Milton Township, in Wheaton, in Wheaton’s West District, and in my precinct and b) crow about their success in promoting dependency on government, dependency on charity, LGBTQ, abortion, mass/illegal immigration, booze, gambling, pot, and other vices, abolition of the First and Second Amendments, patronage, political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, and age discrimination.)

WASHINGTON POST
— DIERSEN HEADLINE: Hate-filled Trump-hating Trump-haters say “Trump is sliding toward online irrelevance. His new blog isn’t helping. The former president’s aides said his new online presence would ‘redefine the game.’ But his heavily promoted blog is seeing few visitors.” My critics/opponents glorify and praise those who paint themselves as being religious, conservative, and/or Republican and who not only do not read GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters, but who destroy those who read the newsletters.

https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2021/05/21/romeo-juliet-anthony-bouchard-wyoming/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The state senator tweeted that he was speaking out about the past relationship because “investigators have been hounding my family for weeks and now the liberal fake news is coming out with a hit piece about my teenage years.” He pointed to “dirty politics” in his Facebook video, but did not explicitly name Cheney or any politicians. Bouchard claimed that the efforts of an unnamed British media reporter and a “political opposition research company” were why he wanted to disclose the news. Cheney campaign spokesman Jeremy Adler declined to comment on Bouchard’s past relationship. He denied that the congresswoman’s campaign played any role in pushing the story. “Absolutely not,” he said to The Washington Post. Messages left for the Wyoming Republican Party and the state Senate were not immediately returned Friday.)

NEW YORK POST
— Air Force watchdog to examine reassignment of Space Force commander – Samuel Chamberlain (DIERSEN: In a different world, my Republican U.S. Senators and my Republican U.S. Representatives would have demanded investigations of the adverse actions that the Democrats who ran GAO 1980-1997, IRS 1971-1980, and Post Office 1966-1969 took against me. My Democrat GAO superiors forced me to retire in 1997 when I was 49 years old, gave me unfair performance expectations and appraisals, always ranked me in the bottom half of my coworkers for pay-for-performance purposes, did not promote me beyond GS-13, got rid of my mentor in 1987, kept me off audits of IRS for all but 3 of the almost 18 years that I worked for GAO, and forced me to take a $20,361 (21%) pay cut in today’s dollars to transfer from IRS to GAO in 1980. My Democrat IRS superiors did not promote me beyond GS-12, disallowed my education deductions in 1978, got rid of my mentor in 1975, and disallowed my partial day per diem claims in 1974. My Democrat Post Office superiors forced me to resign in 1969 and disallowed my sick leave requests in 1969 and 1968.)
https://nypost.com/2021/05/21/air-force-watchdog-to-examine-removal-of-space-force-commander/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Air Force spokeswoman Ann Stefanek confirmed Thursday that the investigation into whether Lt. Col. Matthew Lohmeier’s actions constituted “prohibited partisan political activity” had been elevated “due to the complexity and sensitivity of the issues under consideration, as well as potential for [Air Force]-wide impact.” Lohmeier was relieved of command of the 11th Space Warning Squadron at Buckley Air Force Base in Colorado after he appeared on the “Information Operation” podcast earlier this month to discuss his book “Irresistible Revolution: Marxism’s Goal of Conquest & the Unmaking of the American Military.” “The diversity, inclusion and equity industry and the trainings we are receiving in the military … is rooted in critical race theory, which is rooted in Marxism,” Lohmeier told podcast host L. Todd Wood.)

— Franklin Graham worries Trump too old to run in 2024 (DIERSEN: I was born in 1948. All my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes have always promoted age discrimination. What would you stress in defense of your age? I stress that neither health problems nor any other kind of problem has stopped me from putting together and sending out a GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletter a) each and every morning since 2004 and b) each and every evening too since 2015. Further, I have the best record by far for attending Milton Township Republican Organization meetings and fundraisers since 1999.)
https://www.axios.com/franklin-graham-trump-2024-president-054ab9ca-f55e-4588-baa0-b564cefa0592.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The Rev. Franklin Graham says a potential 2024 presidential bid by Donald Trump would “be a very tough thing to do,” the prominent Christian leader told “Axios on HBO.” Why it matters: Graham, the president of the Billy Graham Evangelistic Association and Samaritan’s Purse, was among Trump’s earliest and most prominent evangelical defenders. Graham told “Axios on HBO” that a Trump comeback would be difficult because of his advancing age and eating habits. ““I think for him, everything will depend on his health at that time. If he still has energy and strength like he does. I don’t.” “You know the guy does not eat well, you know, and it’s amazing the energy that he has.” “He’s lost weight, fifteen pounds, Maybe. So he might be in good health and in good shape. I don’t know.” Trump would be 78 in 2024, the same age as Joe Biden in 2020. The big picture: Graham stood by Trump through repeated scandals, telling “Axios on HBO” in 2018 that he saw Trump as a defender of the faith. “Now people say ‘Well Frank but how can you defend him, when he’s lived such a sordid life?’ I never said he was the best example of the Christian faith. He defends the faith. And I appreciate that very much.”)

FINANCIAL TIMES
— A revolt against the rich could be sparked by basic demographics. There are now far more millennial adults, some with children, for whom the economy is not delivering. – RHYMER RIGBY (DIERSEN: I should write a book about my critics/opponents who have demonized, denigrated, and condemned me the most for my being a union member for almost 12 years. During those almost 12 years (1966-1969 and 1971-1980), my federal salary increased from $16.81/hour to $97,395/year in today’s dollars. In my defense, I earned a bachelor’s degree in management from NIU in 1970 and an MBA from Loyola in 1976, I passed the CPA examination on my first attempt in 1979, and I started taking graduate accounting courses at DePaul in 1976.)
https://www.ft.com/content/39a68887-0277-4be8-bc1e-310601522f0a
(FROM THE ARTICLE: US President Joe Biden made a remarkable speech at the end of March: “I’m a union guy. I support unions. Unions built the middle class. It’s about time they start to get a piece of the action.” He said this at a carpentry trade school outside the rust-belt city of Pittsburgh, which only served to underscore the message. The idea that a political leader in an Anglosphere country might be interested in what unions have to say felt like a seismic shift — and one that took me back. One of the great stories of my adult life has the widespread acceptance that it is all right, even desirable, to be filthy rich.)


MANAGEMENT TODAY
— Should you ban political talk at work? – Orianna Rosa Royle (DIERSEN: While I worked for the Democrats who ran the federal government 1966-1969 and 1971-1997, my Democrat superiors, supervisors, coworkers, and subordinates frequently asked me questions to get/confirm information to use against me. For example, that I was a Republican, that I was conservative, that I opposed political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, and age discrimination, that I opposed promotion of dependency on government, that I opposed dependency on charity, that I opposed the promotion of LGBTQ, abortion, mass/illegal immigration, booze, gambling, pot, and other vices, and diminishment of First and Second Amendment rights, that I avoided the draft, that I had been baptized, raised, and confirmed as a Missouri Synod Lutheran, that I was 100% German national origin, that my ancestors had been America since 1844, that I had lived in Crete 1948-1972 and Wheaton since 1978, that my wife and I had given up trying to have children, that we did not adopt, and that we did not become foster parents, that I bought a new 1972 Corvette in 1971, a 1962 Chevy Impala SS collector car in 1989, and a 1968 Dodge Charger R/T collector car in 1994, that my wife and I bought a home in Wheaton in 1978 and that we had one built there in 1984, etc.)

ILLINOIS FAMILY INSTITUTE
— DISGUSTING, TRAGIC: Critical Race Theory Finds a Home at Wheaton College – Laurie Higgins
https://illinoisfamily.org/faith/critical-race-theory-finds-a-home-at-wheaton-college/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: That probably explains why administrators and faculty said next to nothing when the increasingly woke, decreasingly conservative evangelical Wheaton College held a racially segregated pre-graduation ceremony for colorful people on May 8, 2021, which was advertised as “RACIALIZED MINORITY RECOGNITION CEREMONY” (all caps in original) and held in the campus chapel. While it was created “Especially for undergraduate students, staff, and faculty of color,” the school provided “limited seating” for colorless people. I wonder if those seats were way in the back. One Wheaton faculty member who likely loves Wheaton’s embrace of re-segregation is associate professor of philosophy and critical race theorist Nathan Cartagena who was recently interviewed for leftist Christian Jim Wallis’ Sojourners’ magazine. In this interview, Cartagena explained how he sussed out Wheaton’s friendliness to CRT by delivering a visiting lecture on controversial critical race theorist Tommy Curry during the interview process: I wanted to see: Is this a place that would welcome such reflection? I received a warm welcome from the students, my department, etc., so I thought “OK, this is a place where I can do this.” And by “do this,” Cartagena meant, not expose students to the debate on CRT, but to promote CRT: I taught a reading group my first year at Wheaton that involved one of the important texts in the critical race theory movement, Faces at the Bottom of the Well by Derrick Bell. The following year I asked if I could teach a half-semester class on critical race theory—I got a full thumbs up. . .Enquiring donors and parents considering sending their children to Wheaton may want to know if Cartagena spends equal time having students study any of the many works of criticism of CRT like Cynical Theories: How Activist Scholarship Made Everything About Race, Gender, and Identity—and Why This Harms Everyone or Voddie Baucham’s book Fault Lines: The Social Justice Movement and Evangelicalism’s Looming Catastrophe.)

— Following the success sequence is a path away from poverty and crime – Andrew Heath (DIERSEN: Who do you give credit to for your successes? I give credit to my outstanding parents who had me baptized as a Missouri Synod Lutheran (MSL), who raised me as a MSL, and who had me confirmed as a MSL. They sent me to Trinity Lutheran Grade School in Crete 1953-1961 and then to Hope Lutheran Grade School in Park Forest 1961-1962 to stay with the Missouri Synod.)
https://chathamjournal.com/2021/05/13/following-the-success-sequence-is-a-path-away-from-poverty-and-crime/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: First, graduate. Second, maintain full-time employment. Third, if you’re going to have kids, wait until you’re married. If you follow those three steps in that order, you are following what has been coined the “success sequence.” People who have followed the success sequence are much likelier to escape poverty and end up in the middle to upper-income brackets. Many parents have been giving similar advice for generations, but academics and policymakers have only recently given the concept any attention.)

Most commonly, they reject the traditional marriage/family, right to life, immigration, illegal drugs, Second Amendment, and/or equal opportunity (no race or gender based preference giving) planks. RINOs focus on destroying individuals, organizations, companies, governments, and countries that support the planks that they reject. I should write a book about RINOs who have had the most success in destroying the Illinois Republican Party, DuPage County Republican Central Committee, and Milton Township Republican Organization.)

AMERICAN THINKER
— Illinois House passes bill radically expanding scope of affirmative action, renaming it ‘positive action’ – Thomas Lifson (DIERSEN: Democrats have always used Affirmative Action (AA) to hire, retain, and promote Democrats, and especially Democrats who are minority, female, and/or younger. Democrats have always used AA to not hire and to get rid of Republicans, and especially Republicans who are White, male, and/or older.)
https://www.americanthinker.com/blog/2021/05/illinois_house_passes_bill_radically_expanding_scope_of_affirmative_action_renaming_it_positive_action.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: A bill that has already passed the Illinois State House of Representatives and awaits a State Senate vote would grant preferences in hiring and promotion to people with “any characteristic whatsoever that might disadvantage somebody, regardless of whether the characteristic is inherited or self-inflicted.” A lack of education, for instance. – Mark Glennon explains Illinois House Bill 3914 in the site he founded, Wirepoints: “It would have state agencies give hiring preference to anybody with a “protected characteristic.” The bill’s definition of that term is the key. It includes “any characteristic which may be used, either directly or indirectly, to discriminate against or place at a disadvantage such persons having that characteristic.” So, it’s not just involuntary traits like race or gender, it’s anything that would disadvantage somebody, even if self-imposed. Anything. As you think about examples of how absurd this is, it’s important to remember this is not about nondiscrimination. It’s about creating new preferences for anybody with a “protected characteristic.” He offers a number of examples of characteristics that would be covered, and result in preferences, such as: “Or what about applicants who are unintelligent, even those who are so because they haven’t been motivated enough to educate themselves? And what about those who simply lack experience? They, too, generally fare poorly in the labor market and those traits also fit within the definition of “protected characteristics.” The bill would call for them to get a preference over those who are smarter or more experienced, and no distinction would be made if those traits stemmed from simple lack of effort.”)

BREITBART
— What Happened to Adam Kinzinger? – JOEL B. POLLAK
https://www.breitbart.com/politics/2021/05/09/pollak-what-happened-to-adam-kinzinger-illinois/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: After the 2010 elections, when five Tea Party-backed Republicans won congressional seats in Illinois, the Democrats in the state legislature redrew the district boundaries and pitted Kinzinger against fellow incumbent Rep. Don Manzullo (R-IL), a staunch conservative long before the Tea Party. Kinzinger painted himself as the young, fresh face against “a creaky lawmaker long past his prime,” in Politico‘s words. He had the backing of the Republican establishment; conservative groups belatedly backed Manzullo. Kinzinger won, having burned his bridges to the conservative movement. His district is reliably Republican, so he wins easy re-elections. But his new constituency has become CNN. Kinzinger’s shift is what happens when Democrats control the media, and the map. That’s why we are debating Trump: it suits Democrats, and the media, who will do anything not to talk about Biden and his policies.)

NEWS BUSTERS
— Internal Documents Reveal Disney Striving for Insane Wokeness – P.J. Gladnick (DIERSEN: Who is leading the effort to turn your municipality, your township, and your county into a “leftist woke cult?”)
https://www.newsbusters.org/blogs/nb/pj-gladnick/2021/05/09/internal-documents-reveal-disney-striving-insane-wokeness
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Disney is supposed to create happiness but according to leaked internal documents, what that corporation now seems to be striving for is an insane level of very angry wokeness that is quite disturbing. Fortunately internal documents from the Disney corporation were leaked to Christopher Rufo of the City Journal which he revealed on Friday in “The Wokest Place on Earth.” In the past year, Disney executives have elevated the ideology of critical race theory into a new corporate dogma, bombarded employees with trainings on “systemic racism,” “white privilege,” “white fragility,” and “white saviors,” and launched racially segregated “affinity groups” at the company’s headquarters. The Disney wokeness program comes under the umbrella name of “Reimagine Tomorrow” composed of “training modules” that sound like indoctrination by a Maoist cult. Rufo writes: I have obtained a trove of whistleblower documents related to Disney’s “diversity and inclusion” program, called “Reimagine Tomorrow,” which paints a disturbing picture of the company’s embrace of racial politics. Multiple Disney employees, who requested anonymity out of fear of reprisals, told me that the Reimagine Tomorrow program, though perhaps noble in intent, has become deeply politicized and engulfed parts of the company in racial conflict. The core of Disney’s racial program is a series of training modules on “antiracism.” In one, called “Allyship for Race Consciousness,” the company tells employees that they must “take ownership of educating [themselves] about structural anti-Black racism” and that they should “not rely on [their] Black colleagues to educate [them],” because it is “emotionally taxing.” The United States, the document claims, has a “long history of systemic racism and transphobia,” and white employees, in particular, must “work through feelings of guilt, shame, and defensiveness to understand what is beneath them and what needs to be healed.” Disney recommends that employees atone by “challeng[ing] colorblind ideologies and rhetoric” such as “All Lives Matter” and “I don’t see color”; they must “listen with empathy [to] Black colleagues” and must “not question or debate Black colleagues’ lived experience.” As part of this woke ideology the idea of equality must be ditched in favor of “equity.” In another module, called “What Can I Do About Racism?,” Disney tells employees that they should reject “equality,” with a focus on “equal treatment and access to opportunities,” and instead strive for “equity,” with a focus on “the equality of outcome.” The training also includes a series of lessons on “implicit biases,” “microaggressions,” and “becoming an antiracist.” The company tells employees that they must “reflect” on America’s “racist infrastructure” and “think carefully about whether or not your wealth, income, treatment by the criminal justice system, employment, access to housing, health care, political power, and education might be different if you were of a different race.” There are many, many more examples of cultish leftism that has taken hold at Disney but I leave with you one final example from Rufo’s expose of their descent into political insanity: Finally, as part of an initiative labeled “CEO sponsored priorities,” Disney has launched racially segregated “affinity groups” for minority employees, with the goal of achieving “culturally-authentic insights.” In the original launch, the Latino affinity group was called “Hola,” the Asian affinity group was called “Compass,” and the black affinity group was called “Wakanda.” The racial affinity groups, also called Business Employee Resource Groups (BERGs), are technically open to all employees but in practice have become almost entirely segregated by race, with the occasional exception for white “executive champions” who attend on behalf of corporate leadership. And here is the viewpoint on all this woke craziness by white “executive champion” Bob Iger: …executive chairman Bob Iger pledged that the company “should be taking a stand” on political controversies and will no longer “shy away from politics” in the future. Hey Bob! Will you still be of that opinion when your customers “shy away” from Disney after finding out that you are turning your company into a leftist woke cult?)

https://www.nytimes.com/2021/05/07/nyregion/slavery-nyc.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Last month, Vanessa Thompson stepped outside the juice bar where she works on Nostrand Avenue in Brooklyn and noticed a green and white sticker on a light pole. She leaned in for a closer look. “John van Nostrand was a slave owner,” it said. “According to the US census in 1790, the (Van) Nostrands owned 6 people.” Ms. Thompson, who is Black, was dumbfounded. “I didn’t even know anything about that,” she said. “He could’ve owned me.” The sticker was partly the brainchild of Elsa Eli Waithe, 33, a comedian living in Crown Heights, Brooklyn, who, along with two collaborators, has been on a mission to let New Yorkers know that a good number of the city’s streets, subway stations and neighborhoods are named after enslavers.)

— Why Do Diversity And Inclusion Initiatives Fail? The Cautionary Tale Of Basecamp. – Agnes Uhereczky (DIERSEN: Diversity and Inclusion efforts did not fail at GAO. During the 1980s and 1990s, the Democrats who ran GAO used Republican-led budget cuts to get rid of GAO’s employees who were Republican, White, male, and/or non-veteran who they had not promoted to GS-13 (currently $102,188) by age 25, GS-14 (currently $120,755) by age 30, GS-15 (currently $142,041) by age 35, and Senior Executive Service (currently $172,500) by age 40. I am Republican, White, male, non-veteran, and born in 1948. In retrospect, with benefit of hindsight, I am shocked that GAO hired me in 1980, that GAO promoted me to GS-13 in 1986, and that GAO did not force me to retire until 1997 when I was 49 years old. GAO would not have hired me, let alone promoted me or let me work there for almost 18 years, if I had not a) earned an MBA from Loyola in 1976, b) pasted the CPA examination on my first attempt in 1979, c) earned a master’s degree in accounting from DePaul in 1980, d) passed the Certified Internal Auditor examination on my first attempt in 1981, e) became a licensed CPA in 1981, f) became a Certified Fraud Examiner in 1990, Certified Government Financial Manager in 1994, Certified Financial Services Auditor in 1996, and Forensic Accountant in 1997, and f) earned a master’s degree in financial markets and trading from IIT in 1997.)

NEWSWEEK
— DIERSEN HEADLINE: Hate-filled Trump-hating Trump-hates crow about their success in promoting hatred against Trump. Who focuses on promoting hatred against Trump in the organizations that you are a member of, in your employer if you are still employed, in your county, in your county district, in your township, in your municipality, in your municipal district, in your precinct, and in your neighborhood? How successful have they been? One measure is the number of votes that Trump got versus Biden in the November 3, 2020 election.

HOT CARS
— These Classic American Cars Will Obliterate Modern Sports Cars. Americans’ hunger for V8 power in the ’60s and ’70s gave birth to dozens of machines that are still able to embarrass many modern sports cars. – MARK LAKEWOOD (DIERSEN: I owned a 1969 Dodge Charger SE 1968-1971. I owned a 1968 Dodge Charger R/T 1994-2005. Sadly, my ownership of the 1968 Dodge Charger R/T was tarnished by odometer fraud.

(FROM THE ARTICLE: 1968 Dodge Charger R/T The Dodge Charger debuted in 1966 and received its chassis from the mid-sized Coronet. It made great efforts to curve a body and life of its own. It became a beloved high-speed streetcar and one of the more pricey fastback specialty machines of this season. The standard engine was a 5.2-liter V-8 engine discharging 230 hp. Over time, engines such as a 6.2-liter V-8 generating 325 ponies were availed. The icing on the cake was the 426 cubic-inch Street HEMI engine that changed fortunes for the Dodge Charger. The 1968 version was redesigned to set it completely apart from the Dodge Coronet. This version bore the R/T(Road/Track) capabilities, with twin stripes around the back being the distinguishing spec. The presence of a Charger R/T in the 1968 film Bullitt cements its importance in this season. If you get hold of one, be kind to let us know how it behaves against modern contemporaries, but we can guarantee you it will be satisfying.)
