— While Underwood wants to boost postal funding, Oberweis suggests reducing mail delivery – Russell Lissau (DIERSEN: Because of complaints about slow delivery of Christmas mail in 1965, the Democrats who ran the Post Office got a budget increase that resulted in the Democrats who ran the Park Forest Post Office hiring me in November of 1966. They could not find a qualified Democrat, minority, female, or veteran who would take the job. I worked a) part-time while I was a full-time student at UIC 1966-1968 and at NIU in 1969 and b) full-time during the summers of 1967, 1968 and 1969. They outrageously succeeded in forcing me to resign in September of 1969 by falsely claiming that I would not be available to work enough part-time hours. I was available to work all Mondays, all Fridays, all Saturdays, all Sundays, all holidays, and all days that NIU was not in session. My Democrat Park Forest Post Office supervisor made it clear that he strongly disapproved of my following demographics: Republican, conservative, Missouri Synod Lutheran, 100% German American, union member, non-poor, college student, draft avoider, Crete resident since 1948, owner of a 1966 Pontiac Tempest Sprint, then a 1968 Oldsmobile 442, and then a 1969 Dodge Charger SE, and my ancestors had been in America since 1844.)

— 2020 Is The Year Of The Woman Donor: Campaign Contributions Surge – JIM ZARROLI (DIERSEN: Democrats shout at women that they should give money to Democrat candidates who promise to give preference to women, that is, who promise to discriminate against men.)
https://www.nprillinois.org/post/2020-year-woman-donor-campaign-contributions-surge#stream/0
(FROM THE ARTICLE: This election cycle, the share of women giving money to political campaigns has already risen to 43.5% after never topping 28% in the 1990s — “a pretty significant jump,” says Sheila Krumholz of the Center for Responsive Politics. (The group looked only at donations larger than $200.) That surge provides women with greater political clout, and it could make a big difference in some of this year’s closest political races. While donations to both parties have risen, women tend to favor Democrats. President Trump has received 37% of his donations from women so far during this election cycle, while almost 48% of the contributors to former Vice President Joe Biden have been female, Krumholz says.)

THE REAL DEAL
— Supply glut may set downtown home market back a year Investors perceive Chicago as less of an opportunity, motivating selloff (DIERSEN: In 1974, when I was 25 years old, a) because IRS promoted me to a GS-12 (currently $85,084/year) job in its Loop office and b) because I was taking graduate business courses at Loyola, I bought studio condo in the Outer Drive East building and walked to/from work and classes. In 1976, when IRS was paying me $90,758/year in today’s dollars, I traded it in to the building’s developer for a one bedroom condo, continued to walk to/from work, and started to walk to/from graduate accounting classes at DePaul.)

— Phony Obama Discrimination Lawsuits Still Lingering – Rachel Alexander (DIERSEN: According to my critics/opponents, all the jobs that I had were bad jobs. Because all the jobs that I had were bad jobs, my superiors had a much harder time finding qualified minorities and qualified women who would take those bad jobs. I did yard work and delivered newspapers 1962-1964; washed dishes 1964-1966; cleaned golf shoes, chipped slag, and pumped gasoline in 1966; delivered mail 1966-1969; worked on an automobile assembly line and as a security guard in 1970; sold tires, automotive services, and major appliances 1970-1971; pumped gasoline 1971-1972; collected delinquent taxes 1971-1980; and audited federal agencies 1980-1997.) )
https://townhall.com/columnists/rachelalexander/2020/08/31/phony-obama-discrimination-lawsuits-still-lingering-n2575335
(FROM THE ARTICLE: There was no evidence of discrimination. No one came forward to complain. The lawsuits were solely based on statistics. They didn’t take into account legitimate reasons for the discrepancies. Fewer minorities and women may have applied for jobs. They may not have had as much experience or education. By forcing people artificially into boxes, opportunities that accommodate people’s different needs are eliminated. For example, a woman may want a job with fewer hours or flexible hours due to raising children. But these rigid categories eliminate the opportunity for her.)

The college, located in Milwaukee, announced that “after further review with careful consideration” it chose to “present a different speaker” instead of the vice president. The college announced that it replaced Pence with Rev. Mark Jeske of St. Marcus Lutheran Church. Jaske is the senior pastor at the Milwaukee-based Lutheran church and he has been with the church since 1980. Wisconsin Lutheran University initially fought back criticisms from alumni and current students about having Pence speak at commencement and said it was a nonpolitical event. The university noted that Pence’s service has come with “an unapologetic faith in Christ” and praised his advocacy “for the freedom of religious expression.” It added, “This event is not an endorsement of a political party, candidate, or a party’s platform.” But the university’s statement fell on deaf ears. The anti-Pence coalition wrote an open letter and claimed that Pence’s was part of “an incredibly divisive and controversial ticket” in an election year. They also claimed that it was “ignorant and deceptive” for the college to invite Pence without acknowledging the political implications. Wisconsin’s Democratic Party issued a statement critical of Pence and said, “It’s clear why Pence was disinvited from speaking at Wisconsin Lutheran’s College’s commencement: the Trump administration is focused on dividing, not uniting.” Neither the state Democratic Party nor the anti-Pence coalition acknowledged that the disinvitation controversy is an example of “cancel culture” and fails to live up to America’s long-held standard of tolerance. Cancel culture is the practice of withholding support and publicly shaming individuals over their political or moral views. None of Pence’s critics admitted that the Trump administration (and by extension, Pence) has advanced religious freedom protections for Christians and those of other faiths.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: 7. Assuming years of experience as a proxy for skill. Asking for unrealistic qualifications and relying more on the years of experience on the CV rather than skills (e.g. 10 years of experience for a close-to-junior position), Although I understand that in some markets strict requirements might be used preliminary to select the most interesting candidates, there really is no concrete reason to do so.” — Joel Cociani Take college degrees: If a four-year degree is required, why is it required? What does a degree prove? If you need a mechanical engineer, then a degree does indicate a certain level of knowledge. But if you need a customer service rep, requiring a degree may automatically exclude some potentially awesome people. The same is true with years of experience. Say you require “at least five years of experience in an accounting role.” What do those years of service indicate? Only that you’ve managed to hold accounting jobs for five years. Never use an experience or irrelevant qualifications as a proxy for an achievement. What matters is what people can do. Which means what matters is what they’ve done.)

https://townhall.com/columnists/larryelder/2020/08/27/kamala-harris-there-is-no-vaccine-against-racism-n2575123
(FROM THE ARTICLE: A vaccine against racism would be the worst possible nightmare for Democrats such as Harris and her running mate, Joe Biden. A vaccine would produce the mother of all the emperor-wears-no-clothes moments. As with the Jackson/Sharpton cartoon, the elimination of racism would deprive Harris of liberals’ go-to excuse: Blame racism. Whether the disintegration of the Black family, urban crime, or support for public schools with high dropout rates and where those who remain in school often cannot read, write and compute at grade level, the left blames racism.)

NEW YORK DAILY NEWS
— Donald Trump, affirmative action case – ERROL LOUIS (DIERSEN: What did your parents do to help you attend college? Neither of my outstanding parents attended college. My father was the first of my ancestors to earn a high school diploma. My mother never attended high school. They provided me with room and board a) while I attended UIC 1966-1968, b) weekends during my first semester at NIU in 1969, and c) the summer of 1969.)
https://www.nydailynews.com/opinion/ny-oped-donald-trump-affirmative-action-case-20200827-3ll5gczdbne6jpipf5tkjvl7bm-story.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: It’s entirely fitting that the actress Lori Loughlin and her husband, Mossimo Giannulli, were sentenced to federal prison for their role in a college admissions scandal a day before the Washington Post published explosive audio recordings of Donald Trump’s older sister, Maryanne Trump Barry, describing how the future president of the United States cheated his way into college. “He went to Fordham for one year [actually, it was two] and then he got into University of Pennsylvania because he had somebody take the exams,” Barry, a retired federal judge, told her niece, Mary Trump, apparently unaware that the phone conversation was being recorded. “SATs or whatever. That’s what I believe. I even remember the name,” Barry said. According to Mary Trump, a friend of Trump’s named Joe Shapiro allegedly took the entrance exam for him. Both scandals make clear why affirmative action exists at top-flight universities: Rich insiders have been gaming admissions for generations, scheming to grab every unfair advantage they possibly can. The finishing touch is the sanctimonious hot air blowing from opponents of affirmative action and their determined, decades-long legal war to ban universities from allowing any advantage — actual, implied or even accidental — to bright young Black and Latino applicants.)

They did that because their top priority was hiring, retaining, and promoting young Democrat minorities and young Democrat females and the aforesaid had a) far less job-related education, b) far fewer job-related professional certifications, and c) far fewer job-related licenses. 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.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: Frank Xu stands for a portrait Friday, Aug. 21, 2020, in San Diego. Xu is working to defeat an affirmative action measure on the California ballot that supporters say is essential to dismantling decades of systemic racism. Xu sees affirmative action as an attack on their children, a policy allowing competitive schools to reject high-testing Asian students in favor of African Americans and Latinos.)

If my Democrat GAO superiors had offered a public explanation in October of 1997 for why they forced me to take their early retirement “offer” at the end of September of 1997 when I was 49 years old, it should have been this: We forced Diersen to take our early retirement “offer” a) because since 1988, he has been an active member in a class action lawsuit that has charged us with reverse discrimination, age discrimination, and retaliation, b) because Republican U.S. Senators and Republican U.S. Representatives cut our budget dramatically, c) because we did what our Democrat U.S. Senators and our Democrat U.S. Representatives wanted us to do, namely, get rid of our employees who are Republican, White, male, and/or non-veteran who we did not promote to GS-13 (currently $101,176/year) by age 25, GS-14 (currently $119,559/year) by age 30, GS-15 (currently $140,634/year) by age 35, and Senior Executive Service (currently $170,800/year) by age 40, d) because we did what Diersen’s Democrat supervisors, Democrat coworkers, and Democrat subordinates who are minority, female, younger, veteran, non-Protestant, and/or non-German American wanted us to do, e) because he could suffer the 59% loss of income ($77,604/year in today’s dollars) because of his wife’s income, their retirement savings, they have no debts, they own a 13-year-old home in Wheaton and six cars — a 1997 Chevy Cavalier, a 1996 Ford Thunderbird LX, a 1990 Ford Thunderbird LX, and three collector cars (a 1972 Corvette, a 1962 Chevy Impala SS, and a 1968 Dodge Charger R/T), and they have no dependents, f) because we want to send a strong message to young Democrat minorities and to young Democrat women that we do everything that we can to give them preference and to get rid of Republicans, and especially to get rid of Republicans who are White, male, older, non-veteran, Protestant, and/or German American, and g) because we wanted to (and did) give Diersen’s job and his preferred corner office to his Black subordinate.)

https://www.dailyherald.com/news/20200825/casten-and-ives-sound-off-on-black-lives-matter-and-trump-during-forums
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Democratic U.S. Rep. Sean Casten and Republican challenger Jeanne Ives voiced diametrically different opinions of the Black Lives Matter movement and its members during separate public forums Tuesday. Casten, a Downers Grove resident seeking his second term as the congressman for Illinois’ 6th District, called the movement “amazingly inspiring” and said most Americans support the effort, which opposes police brutality and racially motivated violence. “I think that is such a beautiful sign of progress,” Casten said. Conversely, Ives, a former state legislator from Wheaton who unsuccessfully ran for governor in 2018, blasted the group as “a Marxist organization that wants to destroy the nuclear family.” Ives also said she doesn’t understand why protesters are allowed to paint the Black Lives Matter name on streets or march without parade permits.)
