— If you don’t get a 6% raise, are you taking a pay cut due to inflation? – Carmen Reinicke (COMMENT: I should write a book about taking a pay cut. Pay is transparent in the federal government. In 1980, when I was 31 years old, all my IRS and GAO superiors, supervisors, coworkers, and subordinates knew that GAO forced me to take a 21% pay cut ($20,361/year in today’s dollars) to transfer from IRS to GAO. Of course, my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes have used that against me ever since. They use my taking a pay cut to hint/imply/argue/shout a) that IRS grossly overpaid me, b) that IRS should not have promoted me in 1972, 1973, or 1974, c) that my IRS work experience was worthless, d) that the MBA that I earned from Loyola in 1976 was worthless, e) that my passing the CPA examination on my first attempt in 1979 was worthless, and f) that my almost completing the requirements for a master’s degree in accounting from DePaul was worthless.)

DAILY MAIL
— More than HALF of NYPD cops wish they had never joined force, internal memo says, as NYC faces historic crime surge and woke politics that are ‘destroying’ Big Apple – MICHELLE THOMPSON (COMMENT: In 1980, when I was 31 years old, I agreed to suffer a 21% pay cut ($20,361/year in today’s dollars) to transfer from IRS to GAO in part because GAO claimed to be nonpartisan. I soon learned that claim was false and that GAO was far more partisan than IRS. I should write a book about how the Democrats who ran GAO’s Chicago office a) gave preference to their employees who were Democrat, and especially to those who were minority, female, younger, veteran, moderate, liberal, non-Christian, non-Protestant, non-German American, and/or those whose ancestors had not been in America for a long time, that is, they discriminated against their employees who Republican, and especially against those who were White, male, older, non-veteran, conservative, Christian, Protestant, German American, and/or those whose ancestors had been in America for a long time. If I had been a Democrat, GAO would have promoted me into its Senior Executive Service long before I was 40 years old. In 1981, I passed the Certified Internal Auditor examination on my first attempt and became a licensed CPA. In 1980, I earned a master’s degree in accounting from DePaul. In 1979, I passed the CPA examination on my first attempt. In 1976, I earned an MBA from Loyola. But because I was a Democrat, because I opposed patronage, political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, and age discrimination, and because in 1988 I became an active member in a class action lawsuit that charged my GAO superiors with reverse discrimination, age discrimination, and retaliation, they forced me to retire in 1997 when I was 49 years old, gave me unfair job assignments, performance expectations, and performance 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.)

— Appointment of former Mount Prospect trustee leads to complaints about lack of diversity – Steve Zalusky (COMMENT: Ever-increasingly, under the Democrats and under the RINOs, everyone is under ever-increasing pressure to discriminate against those who are Republican, White, male, older, heterosexual, married, non-veteran, non-poor, conservative, Christian, Protestant, German American, those whose ancestors have been in America for a long time, etc. Outstandingly, notwithstanding the aforesaid pressure, the Democrats who ran a) GAO hired me in 1980, promoted me in 1986, and let me work there until 1997, b) IRS hired me in 1971 and promoted me in 1972, 1973, and 1974 and let me work there until 1980, and c) the Post Office hired me in 1966 and let me work there until 1969. However, outrageously, even though 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 served as the treasurer of the Association of Government Accountants Chicago Chapter 1983-1986, I became a Certified Fraud Examiner in 1990, I became a Certified Government Financial Manager in 1994, I became a Certified Financial Services Auditor in 1996, I became a Forensic Accountant in 1997, and I served as the Illinois Center Right Coalition Treasurer 2003-2006, the RINOs who dominate the Milton Township Republican Organization (MTRO) have made it tremendously clear that they do not want me to serve as the organization’s treasurer. To this day, those RINOs crow about the success of their negative campaign to defeat me when I ran for the open MTRO Treasurer position in 2004.)
https://www.dailyherald.com/news/20211118/appointment-of-former-mount-prospect-trustee-leads-to-complaints-about-lack-of-diversity
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Mount Prospect Mayor Paul Hoefert appointed former political rival William Grossi to a seat on the village’s finance commission this week, a move that drew criticism from those calling for more diversity on the town’s volunteer commissions. Hoefert cited the accounting credentials and educational background of Grossi, a former village trustee who ran against Hoefert for mayor in the spring, for his appointment. But Trustees Peggy Pissarreck and Terri Gens voted against it, saying Hoefert missed an opportunity to appoint a qualified woman or a person of color instead. “I am troubled that you have passed over the opportunity to appoint a female person of color with a law degree and a regulatory background who expressed interest months ago,” Pissarreck said. Finance commission member Yulia Bjekic also was critical of the appointment. “I feel we are past the point of walking the talk on diversity, equity and inclusion. We talk about it, and you continue to appoint and reappoint Caucasian males to commissions, and that is unfortunate,” she said. However, Hoefert said the candidate mentioned by Pissarreck expressed interest in the finance commission specifically only two weeks ago, while Grossi applied in May. Trustee Colleen Saccotelli, who supported the appointment, cited Grossi’s past work on the village’s audit committee and his “tremendous experience and institutional knowledge.” Also voting in favor were Trustees John Matuszak and Richard Rogers. Trustee Augie Filippone abstained. Former Trustee Michael Zadel also defended the appointment. “The finance commission is, in fact, one of the most diverse commissions that we have,” he said. “There are not all white Caucasians who have been appointed to this commission over the years.”)

— COMMENT: Ever-increasingly, Democrats promote reparations, that is, ever-increasingly, Democrats promote hatred against Republicans. Ever-increasingly, Democrats hint/imply/argue/shout that it was slavery that brought all the income and all the net worth that Republicans have today. Ever-increasingly, Democrats hint/imply/argue/shout that the more of the following that you are, the more reparations that you should pay: law enforcement officer, Trump supporter, conservative, patriotic, Republican, American, White, male, older, heterosexual, married, non-poor, gun owner, Christian, Protestant, Italian American, German American, and/or if your ancestors have been in America for a long time.

Those disgusting operatives and those disgusting dupes hint/imply/argue/shout that they work for disgusting people who have lots of religious, government, political, and/or financial clout in Wheaton, Milton Township, DuPage County, and/or Illinois.)

EPOCH TIMES
— Dr. Jason Hill on Reparations, White Guilt, and the ‘Age of Post-Oppression’ – JAN JEKIELEK (COMMENT: Democrats, Libertarians, Greens, Independents, and RINOs use Affirmative Action (AA), Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion to get rid of Republicans. AA, Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion are Reparations. Who has paid, is paying, and will pay the price of AA, Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, and Reparations? I should write a book about those who have determined, are determining, and will determine who paid, is paying, and will pay the price of AA, Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, and Reparations. I would focus on a) leaders of the Illinois Republican Party, DuPage County Republican Central Committee, Milton Township Republican Organization, etc.; b) Republican leaders of Illinois, DuPage County, Milton Township, Wheaton, Wheaton Chamber of Commerce, Wheaton Park District, etc.; c) conservative leaders; d) religious leaders; and e) Republican candidates on ballots in my precinct, their political consultants, major donors, fundraisers, pollsters, campaign managers, campaign staff members, campaign volunteers, etc.)
https://www.theepochtimes.com/dr-jason-hill-on-reparations-white-guilt-and-the-age-of-post-oppression_4102379.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: “It befuddles me to see how someone who’s living in Appalachia in a trailer park, who has no access to water, health care, is a walking practitioner of racism, and that that person should, in some sense, participate in a reparations program for … an upper-class black person with five college degrees.”)

POLITICO
— FBI raid on Project Veritas founder’s home sparks questions about press freedom. The action against James O’Keefe has prompted concern about the Biden administration’s commitment to the First Amendment. – JOSH GERSTEIN (COMMENT: I should write a book about those who hint/imply/argue/shout that I falsely claim to be a journalist. Better yet, I should sue them. I would focus on a) leaders of the Illinois Republican Party, DuPage County Republican Central Committee, Milton Township Republican Organization, etc.; b) Republican leaders of Illinois, DuPage County, Milton Township, Wheaton, Wheaton Chamber of Commerce, Wheaton Park District, etc.; c) conservative leaders; d) religious leaders; and e) Republican candidates on ballots in my precinct, their political consultants, major donors, fundraisers, pollsters, campaign managers, campaign staff members, campaign volunteers, etc.)
https://www.politico.com/news/2021/11/13/raid-veritas-okeefe-biden-press-521307
(FROM THE ARTICLE: At the center of the gathering legal storm is a pivotal question: Is O’Keefe a journalist in the eyes of the law? O’Keefe’s attorneys insist that despite his evident political bent and his unorthodox — sometimes deceptive — tactics, he qualifies as a journalist under a federal statute and Justice Department regulations aimed at sharply restricting the use of search warrants and similar steps against members of the media. Prosecutors insist they’ve complied with those requirements, but have thus far been cagey about whether or not they’re treating O’Keefe as a member of the press.)

THE HILL
— Can a new ‘anti-woke’ university make it financially? – RONALD L. TROWBRIDGE (COMMENT: Of course, employers that are the following will not hire University of Austin graduates: anti-law enforcement, anti-Trump, anti-conservative, anti-patriotic, anti-Republican, anti-American, anti-White, anti-male, anti-older people, anti-heterosexual, anti-traditional marriage/family, anti-non-poor people, anti-gun owners, anti-Christian, anti-Protestant, anti-Italian American, anti-German American, and/or anti-those whose ancestors have been in America for a long time.)
https://thehill.com/opinion/education/581333-can-a-new-anti-woke-university-make-it-financially
(FROM THE ARTICLE: On Nov. 8 the University of Austin in Texas came into being. It will grant undergraduate and master’s degrees and plans to purchase property, classroom buildings, labs, dormitories and related facilities, as well as hire faculty and staff. The price tag will of course be staggering. The university says it “will not factor race, gender, or class into admissions decisions, standing firmly against that sort of discrimination.” It will be “fiercely independent — financially, intellectually, and politically.” In sum, it will be anti-woke, anti-cancel culture, and more significantly, pro-free speech — unlike virtually every other university and college in the country.)

ASSOCIATED PRESS
— Gerrymandering surges as states redraw maps for House seats – DAVID A. LIEB and NICHOLAS RICCARDI (COMMENT: I should write a book about the Democrat plants and the RINOs who gerrymandered my DuPage County Milton Township Precinct 9 in Wheaton in 2015. To get rid of me, they drew me into the same precinct with Jeanne Ives. I lost about 250 voters west of the Illinois Prairie Path or about half of my about 500 voters that I had since 1999 and gained about 250 voters east of Warrenville Road. Fewer of the voters I gained were Republican than those who I lost.)

I would focus on the adverse actions that a) my Democrat Post Office superiors took against me 1966-1969, b) my Democrat Firestone superior took against me 1970-1972, c) my Democrat IRS superiors took against me 1971-1980, and d) my Democrat GAO superiors took against me 1980-1997.)

(FROM THE LETTER: By the end of our campaign in Vietnam, roughly half of America did not support the war effort. We witnessed hundreds flee to Canada or other foreign countries to avoid the draft. Where were you during this era? Did you answer the call either as a volunteer or a draftee? Or were you one who chose to not serve, by either fleeing your country or having an affluent connection help you dodge your duty? Or maybe you chose to join a local National Guard unit to stay out of Vietnam?)

Ever-increasingly, those Democrats promote hatred against Republicans, and especially Republicans who are law enforcement officers, Trump supporters, conservative, patriotic, White, male, older, heterosexual, married, non-poor, non-veterans, gun owners, Christian, Protestant, Italian American, German American, and/or those whose ancestors have been in America for a long time.

POLITICO ILLINOIS
— In 2018, Pritzker spent $171 million of his personal fortune to unseat Rauner. Griffin donated $22.5 million to Rauner for that race, and millions more in his 2014 run for governor. In 2020, Griffin spent nearly $54 million to defeat the graduated income tax measure that Pritzker spent $58 million to support. Griffin’s spokesman confirmed his boss will bankroll a challenge to Pritzker. The four Republicans so far in the June 28 primary are state Sen. Darren Bailey, former state Sen. Paul Schimpf, businessman Gary Rabine, and venture capitalist Jesse Sullivan. The big question mark: Will Reps. Adam Kinzinger or Rodney Davis throw their hat in the ring? Either of them would likely get Griffin’s nod. Not on the list is Todd Ricketts. He just stepped down as Republican National Committee finance chair, but a source close to the Cubs co-owner said his exit from the RNC was long planned and that he is not making a play for the governor’s mansion. Democrats might like the idea of Griffin in the midterm mix. A race between Pritzker and anyone Griffin backs could energize the top of the ticket. No offense to the secretary of state candidates.- Shia Kapos

DUPAGE POLICY JOURNAL
— Open book: Salary of Glenbard Township High School District 87 teacher Kathy Holmberg (COMMENT: Since 1966, my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes have hinted/implied/argued/shouted that the federal government overpaid me. In today’s dollars, GAO paid me $132,845/year in 1997, IRS paid me $97,395/year in 1980, and the Post Office paid me $17.93/hour in 1969. In my defense, I earned a) a job-related bachelor’s degree when I was 21 in 1970 and job-related master’s degrees when I was 27, 31, and 48, b) job-related professional certifications when I was 30, 32, 41, 45, 47, and 48, and c) a job-related professional license when I was 32. Since 1997, my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes have hinted/implied/argued/shouted that my Civil Service Retirement System (CSRS) pension, currently $54,864/year, is too generous. In my defense, my CSRS pension is dramatically less because my Democrat GAO superiors forced me to take their early retirement “offer” in 1997 when I was 49 years old and took many adverse actions against me before that. Further, my Social Security should be $6,570/year. But it is only $2,190/year because I get a CSRS pension.)

NEW YORK TIMES
— Why Wokeness Will Fail – BRET STEPHENS (COMMENT: Ever-increasingly, to be woke is to be anti-law enforcement, anti-Trump, anti-conservative, anti-patriotic, anti-Republican, anti-American, anti-White, anti-male, anti-older people, anti-heterosexual, anti-traditional marriage/family, anti-non-poor people, anti-gun owners, anti-Christian, anti-Protestant, anti-Italian American, anti-German American, and/or anti-those whose ancestors have been in America for a long time.)
https://www.nytimes.com/2021/11/09/opinion/social-justice-america.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The problem with the allegation isn’t that it’s flatly wrong: America’s past is shot through with racism and, as Faulkner put it, “The past is never dead. It’s not even past.” But the allegation is also incomplete, distorted, ungenerous to former generations that advanced America’s promise, and untrue to the country most Americans know today. Wokeness operates as if there had been no civil rights movement, and that white Americans hadn’t been an integral part of it. It operates as if 60 years of affirmative action never happened, and that an ever-growing percentage of Black Americans don’t belong to the middle and upper class (and that they are, incidentally, concentrated in the American South). It operates as if we didn’t twice elect a Black president and recently bury a Black general as an American icon. It operates as if, in city after city, American police forces aren’t led by Black police chiefs and staffed by officers of diverse backgrounds. It operates as if white supremacy is still being systemically enforced, while ignoring the fact that a previously marginalized ethnic minority, namely Asian Americans, enjoys higher income levels than white Americans. Above all, Wokeness pretends that incidents such as George Floyd’s murder, which are national scandals, are actually national norms. They aren’t, despite current injustices. Most Americans, I suspect, not only sense the falseness of the allegation. They are, increasingly, insulted by it. The insult turns to injury when it comes to the solutions Wokeness prescribes, and in the way that it prescribes them. This doesn’t just mean efforts like “abolish the police” that are so baldly destructive that voters quickly sense their danger. It’s in subtler prescriptions, too.)

AUSTIN AMERICAN STATESMAN
— Democrats must confront their privilege – David Brooks (COMMENT: I should write a book about the success that Democrats and RINOs have had in taking over DuPage County, Milton Township, and Wheaton. Their success was shown last year by their tremendous promotion of LGBTQ in downtown Wheaton. Their success was show this year by their stopping Republicans from helping sponsor Wheaton’s Independence Day parade and fireworks.)
https://www.statesman.com/story/opinion/2021/11/09/brooks-democrats-must-confront-their-privilege/6337368001/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: One of the Democratic Party’s core problems is that it still regards itself mainly as the party of the underdog. But as the information-age economy has matured, the Democratic Party has also become the party of the elite, especially on the cultural front. Democrats dominate society’s culture generators: the elite universities, the elite media, the entertainment industry, the big tech companies, the thriving elite places like Manhattan, San Francisco and Los Angeles. In 2020, Joe Biden won roughly one-sixth of the nation’s counties, but together those counties generate roughly 71% of the nation’s GDP. As the Democrats have become more culturally and economically dominant, many people at tippy-top private schools and super-expensive colleges have flamboyantly associated themselves with the oppressed. Thankfully, that has moved society to more aggressively pursue social and racial justice. Unfortunately, a tacit ideology — sometimes called wokeness — has been grafted on to this pursuit. It includes the notions that society is essentially a zone of conflict between oppressor and oppressed groups, that a person’s identity is predominantly about group identity and that slavery is the defining fact of American history. Because they dominate the cultural commanding heights, including some departments of education and the largest teachers unions, progressive views permeate schools, museums, movies and increasingly the public stances of large corporations. The Republican Party, like many right-populist parties across the Western world, has become a giant vessel of resistance against cultural, urban and information-age elites. Glenn Youngkin, the Republican who was just elected governor of Virginia, expressed that resistance when he said, “I believe parents should be in charge of their kids’ education.” When Democrats seem to be magnifying the education establishment’s control of the classroom and minimizing the role of parents, there’s going to be a reaction. Some of the reaction is pure racism, but a lot of it is pushback against elite domination and the tacit ideology. The results of last Tuesday’s elections show again that resistance against the elites can be a powerful force propelling Republicans to victory. In the final weeks leading up to Youngkin’s victory, education became one of the top issues for Virginia voters. The results also put the Donald Trump phenomenon in a new perspective. Trump was necessary to smash the old GOP and to turn the party into a vanguard of anti-elite resistance. But by 2020, with his moral degradation and all the rest, he was also holding back Republicans. If Republicans can find candidates who oppose the blue oligarchy but without too much Trumpian baggage, they can win over some former Biden voters in places like Virginia and New Jersey. Democrats would be wise to accept the fact that they have immense social and cultural power, and accept the responsibilities that entails by adopting what I’d call a Whole Nation Progressivism. America is ferociously divided on economic, regional, racial and creedal lines. The job of leaders is to stand above these divides and seek to heal them. The job of leaders is not to impose their values on everyone else; it is to defend a pluralistic order in which different communities can work out their own values.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: Funding proposals for implicit bias and antiracism training in schools are coming into focus and some see it as an unnecessary controversy that distracts from education in the state’s 850 districts. A draft proposal from the Illinois State Board of Education Professional Review Panel set to be considered next month contemplates how to spend an additional $350 million from the evidence based funding model that lawmakers approved several years ago. There are recommendations for a variety of programs, including teaching foreign languages. There are also suggestions for “interventions to have more explicit focus on racial dynamic, including equity direct approaches that offer concrete strategies for teachers’ behavioral changes in the classroom and increased bias awareness.” The draft proposals “recognize that students of color do not inherently need additional supports by nature of their race/ethnicity, but that these students do face inequities because of historical and existing structures, and there is a cost attendant with working to dismantle those inequities through training on antiracism and eliminating implicit bias within schools and districts.” To address that, the proposal adds “a specific Professional Development cost … related to implicit bias and antiracism at a fixed per-pupil cost based on overall enrollment, with additional per-pupil dollar amount for all students where a district serves over 50% non-white students.”)
