https://www.nbcchicago.com/news/local/chicago-magazine-reveals-ranking-of-public-high-schools-in-chicago-surrounding-suburbs/3536451/
— Trump’s plan to slash government could hurt Republicans in a key House race. For nearly a decade, former president Donald Trump has rallied voters around a cry to cut the size of the federal government and “drain the swamp.” (COMMENT: When Republicans slash federal agency budgets, the Democrats who run those agencies get rid of their Republican employees first and then their employees who are White, male, older, non-veteran, Protestant, German American, and/or have ancestors who have been in America for a long time. That is what happened while I worked for the Democrats who ran GAO 1980-1997. They would have succeeded in getting rid of me much sooner than they did if I had not a) earned a master’s degree in accounting from DePaul in 1980, b) passed the Certified Internal Auditor examination on my first attempt and became a licensed CPA in 1981, c) became a Certified Fraud Examiner in 1990, Government Financial Manager in 1994, Financial Services Auditor in 1996, and Forensic Accountant in 1997, and d) earned a master’s degree in Financial Markets and Trading from IIT in 1997.)

— Here’s why we celebrate Labor Day and what you need to know about its creation. A federal holiday celebrated on the first Monday of September each year, Labor Day is a celebration of the social and economic achievements of American workers. (COMMENT: My critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes are vehemently anti-union. They stress that I was a union member for almost 12 years (1966-1969 and 1971-1980) and they hint/imply/argue/shout that because of that, I was grossly overpaid. They stress that while I was a union member, my salary increased from $18.99/hour to $110,020/year in today’s dollars. In my defense, I stress a) that I earned a bachelor’s degree in management from NIU in 1970, an MBA from Loyola in 1976, and a master’s degree in accounting from DePaul in 1980 and b) that I passed the CPA examination on my first attempt in 1979.)

https://www.fox32chicago.com/video/1509217

WGN RADIO
— Are you satisfied with your job? (COMMENT: The importance of GAO’s mission and the importance of the work that I did as a GAO Analyst helped me deal with my Democrat superiors’ ever-increasing efforts to get rid of me. They delayed my promotions and never promoted me beyond GS-13. They kept me off audits of IRS for all but 3 of the almost 18 years that I worked for GAO. They always ranked me in the bottom half of my coworkers for pay for performance purposes. They ever-increasingly ignored/dismissed/belittled a) my having worked for IRS for almost 9 years, b) my earning job-related master’s degrees in business, accounting, and finance in 1976, 1980, and 1997, c) my passing on my first attempt the CPA examination in 1979 and the Certified Internal Auditor examination in 1981, d) my becoming a licensed CPA in 1981, and e) my earning more job-related professional certifications in 1990, 1994, 1996, and 1997. They rudely forced me to retire when I was 49 years old in 1997.)

— Unemployment higher, finding work difficult and inconsistent in south suburbs (COMMENT: My critics/opponents have always hinted/implied/argued/shouted a) that I took jobs that should have been given to Blacks and b) that they would never have stooped to take the jobs that I took. I worked in the south suburbs 1962-1974. I did yard work in Crete 1962-1964. I delivered newspapers in Crete 1962-1966. I washed dishes in Chicago Heights 1964-1966.

— What would Mary Mitchell’s position be on my Democrat GAO superiors forcing me to retire when I was 49 years old in 1997?  I had earned a master’s degree in financial markets and trading from IIT and became a Forensic Accountant in 1997. I had become a Certified Financial Services Auditor in 1996, Certified Government Financial Manager in 1994, Certified Fraud Examiner in 1990, and licensed CPA in 1981.

In my defense, I stress a) that I earned a bachelor’s degree in management from NIU in 1970, an MBA from Loyola in 1976, and a master’s degree in accounting from DePaul in 1980 and b) that I passed the CPA examination on my first attempt in 1979.)

https://dailytorch.com/2024/08/time-for-never-trumpers-to-drop-their-conservative-charade/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Kamala Harris, the Democratic Party nominee, is the most liberal nominee for president in history. She has ardently supported Medicare for All, also known as a complete federal government takeover of health care, even though she has tried to walk it back in this election cycle. Philosophically, self-proclaimed conservatives have argued vehemently against this policy and the experience of Covid should have given the practical reasons to back the rhetoric. She is on record as opposing hydraulic fracturing and the Biden-Harris energy policy is one that makes the country more dependent upon electricity generation while ending the most reliable sources to generate electricity. With the  key Electoral College state Pennsylvania being a major economic beneficiary of fracking Harris now claims to be against banning the process. GOP “leaders” claim to oppose the Green New Deal destruction of fossil fuels generation, and pretend to understand that reliance on unreliable sources of energy puts our nation at risk. She has proposed price controls on food as a solution to inflation. You can’t find a single conservative leader in America who believes that the government can do a better job of pricing commodities than the market, and that food price controls don’t mean food shortages. Not even the Washington Post thinks this emphasis on price “gouging” is a good idea. Kamala Harris is an abortion extremist who as the California Attorney General raided the home of an independent journalist who uncovered an elaborate business venture by Planned Parenthood to market and sell baby body parts from aborted children.  Kamala Harris did not prosecute Planned Parenthood, but the journalist who uncovered and videotaped the sickening practice of selling off body parts as if aborted children were human parts manufacturers. On taxes, she has embraced taxing unrealized capital gains. An example of an unrealized capital gain would be to impose a tax on a homeowner on any appreciation of the value of their home even though that money is only a paper gain and not in their bank account. Also, the Tax Foundation found that Harris’ pledge to end the Trump tax cuts will mean a tax increase for most Americans. In fact, the bottom half of taxpayers would have their average tax rate raised to 4 percent from the current 3.4 percent.  Married couples with two children making a joint income of $85,000 a year would see their taxes go up by $1,661 a year, the equivalent of almost 2 percent of their entire pre-tax salary for the year.  And of course, the Biden border Czarina Harris has seen 10 million illegals encountered at the border since she was given stewardship of the border crisis by President Biden. Note that this does not include the estimated 2 million illegals who got away after being observed by the Border Patrol. It is so bad that Harris is trying to deny any part in the Biden border fiasco, but not even Google can make the news clips of her appointment go away. It is really hard to find a screwball, California idea that Harris hasn’t supported, including banning gasoline powered cars, which the Biden-Harris administration would put out of business by 2037, two years after California banned them. All of this does not even include the Biden-Harris weaponization of the Justice Department and intelligence agencies against their political opponents, the on-going censorship and manipulation of social media platforms to promote the left’s political agenda, or her adamant opposition to the Second Amendment. In fact, it is hard to find a part of the Constitution that Harris actually supports. Given the above, any person who endorses Kamala Harris for president can no longer call themselves a conservative in any way, shape or form. They are not. They are massive government enablers unable to get over the fact that Donald Trump defeated them in a primary election in 2016 and again in the primary of 2024. The question that the Liz Cheneys of the world need to answer is whether they were lying when they claimed to be pro-life, support free markets, lower taxes, less federal government control, gun rights, energy independence and the basic freedoms guaranteed in the Constitution. Even those with the worst cases of Trump Derangement Syndrome should be able to look at the policies of Kamala Harris and reject them outright. Those with the worst cases have the option of voting third party – maybe the pot party (err, the Libertarian Party) is high enough to earn your vote. But endorsing Kamala Harris is admitting that everything you said was important no longer matters, and that you support the likely final stage of the fundamental transformation of America because … Donald Trump. I can no longer take those seriously who have embraced the New Age Harris who rejects constitutional governance in her musings about being unburdened by the past The very soul of America is at stake, and there is no room in the fight to preserve the freedoms enshrined in the Constitution and the ideal that all are created equal endowed by our Creator with certain unalienable rights for those who would sacrifice our fundamental liberties because they don’t like mean tweets. Now, more than ever, in the words of Ronald Reagan, this is our time for choosing.)

— You Can Get through College without Debt. – GEORGE LEEF (COMMENT: I had to work my way through college and I did. I graduated debt-free from NIU in 1970 and owning a 1969 Dodge Charger SE.

In my defense, I stress that my GPA suffered because instead of studying, I worked all the part-time hours that could washing dishes while I was in high school and delivering mail while I was in college. But I acknowledge that could have a) worked fewer hours, b) earned less money, and c) not bought a new 1966 Pontiac Tempest Sprint in 1966, a new 1968 Oldsmobile 442 in 1967, and a new 1969 Dodge Charger SE in 1968.)

KANKAKEE DAILY JOURNAL
— Gotion is presenting sponsor of Manteno Oktoberfest – Chris Breach (COMMENT: Who sponsors the Independence Day parades and fireworks in your area? In 2021, the Democrats and RINOs who run Wheaton stopped Republicans from sponsoring Wheaton’s Independence Day parades and fireworks. I should write a book about that. I had served as the Republican fundraiser for Wheaton’s Independence Day parades and fireworks since 2005.)
https://daily-journal.com/news/local/gotion-is-presenting-sponsor-of-manteno-oktoberfest/article_4c6c2be0-5f40-11ef-8a83-279ec12597a8.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Manteno resident Annette LaMore, who is a spokeswoman for the Concerned Citizens, said she was blown away that Gotion is sponsoring the Oktoberfest. “We cannot believe it,” she said. “This is a foreign entity who is affiliated with the Chinese Communist Party. Why in the world are we inviting them into our town, making them the sponsor of our biggest fundraiser of the year?” The CCOM is entering a float in the Oktoberfest parade, and LaMore said she was asked by Josh Stauffenberg, chair of the chamber’s board of directors, to not use “No Gotion” signs on the float because it didn’t want anyone protesting another chamber member. LaMore said the CCOM will comply with the request. “So, do I have mixed feelings about all this? Yeah, you bet,” she said. “So, from our point of view, Gotion is not doing anything to make Manteno a better place to live. We do not want Gotion here. We do not want chemicals in our town. We do not want dangerous, possible explosions and fires. “… We’re standing up for our town. We want our town to be a safe place for all of us to live.” ONLY ONE TO BID  Knox said Gotion was the only chamber member to put in a bid to be the presenting sponsor. He said the $50,000 is a quite a jump. “It’ll really enhance the festival,” he said. “I’m excited for the community and to see the new additions that we’re going to be bringing in with the investment that they’re helping us make.” Knox said the chamber has heard some concerns about Gotion being the presenting sponsor, but that comes with the territory. “We’re just going to push forward and show [the community] all the great things that they are bringing,” he said. “We can’t lose sight that there’s the whole other side of the coin that’s optimistic and excited for this kind of partnership and presenting partnership.” The influx of money is allowing the chamber to add to the Oktoberfest including a drone show Friday night, a partnership with River Valley Animal Rescue with the Makola Gold Star family project, performance stages and entertainment all four nights. “We’re upping the ante,” Knox said. LaMore, a lifelong Manteno resident, said she plans to attend the Oktoberfest. “I have heard from some people who have said, ‘I don’t even think I want to go this year,’” she said. “That’s the word on the street that I’ve heard.”)

FEDERATION FOR AMERICAN IMMIGRATION REFORM
— BEYOND OUTRAGEOUS: Illinois Bans Most Employers from Using E-Verify – Jonathan Ellett
https://www.fairus.org/legislation/state-and-local/illinois-bans-most-employers-using-e-verify
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Illinois Governor J.B. Pritzker (D) recently signed into law a bill that significantly hampers employers’ ability to utilize E-Verify to check the work authorization of their prospective employees. Following California’s lead, Illinois becomes the second state to impose restrictions on E-Verify usage. This legislation was not the first time the use of E-Verify has been challenged in Illinois. In August 2007, the legislature passed a law which explicitly prohibited employers from using E-Verify until the U.S. government could prove its accuracy. This effort was short-lived, as an Illinois District Court struck down the law in March 2009 for violating the Supremacy Clause of the U.S. Constitution. Then, in 2023, SB 1515, was introduced which prohibited employers from voluntarily enrolling in E-Verify unless they were required to do so under state or federal law. However, Governor Pritzker vetoed that legislation stating that the bill did not do enough to protect “workers.” This year, legislation to restrict the use of E-Verify was reintroduced. Section 13(b) of the Act, broadly prohibits the use of E-Verify. Section 13(b) reads that an “employer shall not impose work authorization verification or re-verification requirements greater than those required by federal law.” As federal law does not require the use of E-Verify, this means that Illinois employers may not use E-Verify to check whether their employers are work authorized unless there is some reason (such as prior violations) that the federal government requires them to. This prohibition applies to both public and private employers. Supporters of the bill claim to be helping workers from some sort of injustice. State Senator Javier Loera Cervantes (D-Chicago), the primary sponsor of the new law, stated that his motivation was to protect “marginalized workers” from being flagged during the employment authorization process due to grammatical errors. “With this law, we can correct bureaucratic errors that would otherwise be detrimental to their income and livelihoods.” Another sponsor, State Representative Eva-Dina Delgado (D-Chicago), proclaimed that in “too many other states, E-Verify is being abused. In Illinois, we are moving in the opposite direction.” While Illinois enacted legislation that helps illegal aliens violate the law by taking jobs and driving down wages, FAIR will continue to advocate mandatory E-Verify laws at the federal, state and local levels because it is a simple tool that works. As we detailed in a FAIR issue brief, illegal immigration fell by as much as 50 percent in a single year in states with mandatory E-Verify laws. Moreover, E-Verify eliminates the main incentive for illegal aliens to come to the United States: work.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: In July, the Supreme Court declined to review a similar case on Illinois’s AR-15 ban. Two justices, Clarence Thomas and Samuel Alito, urged the court to clarify what makes a weapon dangerous and unusual. But legal observers say the Supreme Court is more likely to take up the case out of Maryland. The lower-court litigation, unlike in the Illinois case, is completed with a final judgment against the plaintiffs and amassed a more extensive evidentiary record. The Fourth Circuit ruling also carries more weight coming from the full bench instead of a typical three-judge panel.)

— ‘Vote in the streets?’ Vietnam War protesters reassess strategy more than 50 years later. – Karissa Waddick and Savannah Kuchar (COMMENT: What impact did Vietnam War protestors have on you? They discouraged me from enlisting. They encouraged me to get student draft deferments 1966-1970 and a financial hardship draft deferment 1970-1971. They viciously demonized, denigrated, and condemned my peers who enlisted or who did not get draft deferments. I paid a very big price because I did not enlist and because I got draft deferments. Many, most, virtually all, and at times all of my Post Office, Firestone Stores, IRS, and GAO superiors and/or supervisors were veterans who blamed those like me, and therefore me, for America losing the Vietnam war. I should write a book about the many big adverse actions that they took against me because I did not enlist and because I got draft deferments. They ever-increasingly stressed that I was able to do the following only because I did not enlist and because I got draft deferments: a) buy a new 1968 Oldsmobile 442 in 1967, a new 1969 Dodge Charger SE in 1968, a new 1972 Corvette in 1971, etc., b) earn a bachelor’s degree in 1970 and master’s degrees in 1976, 1980, and 1997, c) earn professional certifications in 1979, 1981, 1990, 1994, 1996, and 1997, d) earn a professional license in 1981, e) buy a new town home in 1972, condos in 1974 and 1976, and a home in 1978, f) have a home built in 1984, g) get married in 1978, h) go on big vacations in 1969, 1970, 1971, 1973, 1974, 1975, 1976, etc., i) etc.)

https://www.cities929.com/2024/08/21/video-democrats-call-trump-racist-black-republican-says-thats-not-true/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Frederick Walls, a Black Republican running for a statehouse seat in Chicago, told The Center Square he is regularly in conversations with community members. “They may say ‘well, he’s racist,’ and I say ‘just prove it’ and then they can’t prove this,” Walls said while wearing a Trump 2024 hat. “So then I educate them on Donald Trump and say, ‘well do you personally know him and what has he personally done to you?’ And they can’t say anything. And so I say, ‘so all you know about him is what the media have showed you.’” Walls said the media is lying. He then provides background about Trump’s support for Black leaders like Jesse Jackson. “The Republican Party was founded to abolish slavery,” Walls said. “Everything about the Republican Party was helping Black people getting back.”)

FROM ILLINOIS CENTER-LEFT SOURCES

DAILY HERALD
— The way out of the circus on display in Chicago – Kathy Salvi
https://www.dailyherald.com/20240820/columns/the-way-out-of-the-circus-on-display-in-chicago/
(FROM THE LETTER: Well, here we go: the circus is in town. No, I’m not talking about the Ringling Brothers or Barnum and Bailey — at least they’re entertaining — but rather the Democratic National Convention. This week we will be force fed speeches from Kamala Harris and Tim Walz, and endure the woke primping and preening spewed from the Democrat mouthpieces on stage. Chicago is a fitting city for the Democrats to hold their convention: it is a great city in slow decay due to backward leftist and authoritarian policies. Crime is rampant in Chicago and has only gotten worse since Gov. J.B. Pritzker signed the pro-criminal SAFE-T Act. Cost of living is sky high because Illinois is among the most-taxed states in the nation. All of these problems are due to blue rule, and they will be on full display for everyone visiting Chicago for the circus. The Democrats have had a tough act to follow this year. The Republican National Convention in Milwaukee was a sight to see and an emotional event in the wake of the assassination attempt on former President Donald Trump. It was a display of unity that has been downplayed by the media across the country, and Republicans are united behind our ticket up and down the ballot. And I should mention — our top of the ticket candidate was actually voted for by the members of our party. We call that “democracy.” Conversely, the Democrats’ convention will be one filled with what we’ve come to expect from Democrats here in Illinois: false promises, gaslighting and manufactured hype behind a candidate who won’t do interviews. We’re seeing the Democrat propaganda machine whirring in full force propping up Kamala Harris after she unceremoniously ousted her boss from his candidacy without a single vote from the people. Anywhere else, that’s called a coup. Kamala Harris has yet to give an interview since being installed without a single Democrat vote. She chose a radical leftist VP who misrepresented his record. Stolen valor. Ask his own chaplain. The only candidate worse than Walz — and even Harris rejected the idea — would have been Illinois’ own failed governor, J.B. Pritzker. Sadly, we have not heard about any of the real issues and how Democrats will attempt to fix them. They have not talked about fixing the open southern border that has festered under Kamala Harris’ watch. The Democrats won’t touch the high cost of living imposed on people in Chicago, Illinois and throughout the country. They won’t give any concrete or real solution to the crime plaguing communities across the country or the corruption within their own Democratic Party from the United States Senate to Dolton, Illinois. Truth be told, there is a silver lining to the Democratic National Convention being in town here. Voters are seeing that there is no real plan coming from the Democrats. There are no real policies they’re running on. Americans are choking on their progressive nightmare, and the Democrats keep doubling down. Make no mistake, we here in Illinois are hurting. Workers are hurting. Families are hurting. Children are hurting, small businesses are hurting. No matter your political persuasion. We are one big hurt under the supermajority, Democrat domination in Illinois. And what has it delivered? A flight from Illinois, an unbearable tax burden on ordinary people, an unsustainable pension crisis, crime-ridden neighborhoods, unaffordable food & gas prices. All of this brought to us by the Illinois Democratic Party. Democrats control the governor’s mansion, the two U.S. Senate seats, 14 out of 17 congressional seats and a supermajority in the Illinois House and Senate as well as the mayor’s office here in Chicago. Their only use for the Republican Party is to ridicule its sound policies and trigger hatred in those from whom they seek money to pursue even more power. We Republicans are scrappy and will fight, fight, fight our battle at the ballot box. In an analysis of those cities in Illinois run by Republican mayors here in Illinois, the air is fresher and the people happier. As I pen this commentary, most families, workers and small businesses in Illinois are awakening to host of problems brought on by the mistakes of our political leaders, mistakes that have increased our tax burden, dumbed down our public educational institutions and made our streets unsafe in which to travel. During the rest of the Democratic National Convention, open your ears to the truth and ask yourself: does the carnivalesque display I am watching reflect the America that I know and love? Illinois, there is a way out of this nightmare: wake up — Vote Republican.)

— Democrats say “Duckworth, who struggled with infertility, says IVF in danger if Donald Trump is elected.” I should write a book about my Democrat GAO superiors who had children and who used against me the most a) that my and my wife gave up trying to have children with trying IVF and b) that we did not adopt or become foster parents. I would focus on those who took the most/biggest adverse actions against me because we did not have children. They knew full-well that both of us had serious fertility problems. They stressed that our health insurance covered IVF. I would focus on my GAO superiors who adopted, whose spouse had little or no income, who complained about the tremendous amount of time and money it costs to raise children. I would focus on my GAO superiors who hinted/implied/argued/shouted the loudest that I lied about our efforts to have children and that if my wife and I had children, I never would have been able to a) pass the CPA examination on my first attempt in 1979, b) earn a master’s degree in accounting from DePaul in 1980, c) pass the Certified Internal Auditor examination on my first attempt and become a licensed CPA in 1981, d) have a home built in Wheaton in 1984, e) etc.

They knew full-well that both of us had serious fertility problems. They stressed that our health insurance covered IVF. I would focus on my GAO superiors who adopted, whose spouse had little or no income, who complained about the tremendous amount of time and money it costs to raise children. I would focus on my GAO superiors who hinted/implied/argued/shouted the loudest that that I lied about our efforts to have children and that if my wife and I had children, I never would have been able to a) pass the CPA examination on my first attempt in 1979, b) earn a master’s degree in accounting from DePaul in 1980, c) pass the Certified Internal Auditor examination on my first attempt and become a licensed CPA in 1981, d) have a home built in Wheaton in 1984, e) etc.

POLITICO
— State delegations won’t stay at the Trump hotel. The Illinois delegation took the hotel that had a prime view of the former president’s property. – SHIA KAPOS
https://www.politico.com/live-updates/2024/08/19/dnc-live-updates-coverage/hotel-politics-00174668
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The nearly 5,000 delegates who are visiting Chicago this week for the Democratic National Convention are staying in eight hotels in the city’s downtown. We’ve got the list. ( https://www.politico.com/f/?id=0000018e-2fcf-d62b-a7df-ffeff6860000 )  Convention organizers have contracted with about 40 hotels to accommodate all the entourages and guests connected to the delegates and their state parties. But one hotel isn’t in the mix: Donald Trump’s Chicago Trump International Hotel and Tower. It’s not just that it’s a nonunion hotel — a requirement for the Democratic Party when it was looking for a convention town — it’s because of Trump. “Our party stands for unity, hope, and freedom — values that stand in fundamental opposition with everything the Trump name and brand represent,” Emily Soong, a spokesperson for the convention said. When it came time to assign delegations to the different hotels, Illinois picked the Royal Sonesta Chicago Hotel, which looks right at the river — and across from Trump hotel. The Illinois Democrats decided they would “take it on the chin” so that other delegations wouldn’t have to look out their windows to see the giant T-R-U-M-P sign on the side of the building, according to one Democratic insider. That also gives them a clear view of the trolling messages Democrats are projecting onto the building. Last night, my colleague Adam Wren spotted “PROJECT 2025 HQ,” among other messages, being beamed onto the building above that TRUMP sign.)

ILLINOIS REPUBLICAN PARTY
— PRESS RELEASE: TONIGHT: Governor Pritzker Soft-Launches 2028 Presidential Campaign. CHICAGO — Last night, Americans heard from Joe Biden, whom elite Democrats unceremoniously removed from the ticket in an undemocratic process. Tonight, voters will listen to presidential hopeful, JB Pritzker, who will use his prime-time speech at the DNC as a stepping stone for a future presidential run – just as he used his time as governor to position himself as a viable national candidate. FIRST: Pritzker traveled to New Hampshire in 2022 to raise his profile and set up a future presidential run. THEN: Pritzker refused to quash rumors that he would leave Illinois to run for president when Democrats launched their soft coup against Joe Biden. THEN: When Kamala Harris was announced as the Democrats’ preferred choice, even though she never received a vote outside of California, Pritzker launched a full-court press campaign to become her vice president. NOW: After failing to earn the nod as the vice-presidential nominee, Pritzker immediately pivoted, making an effort to become the Democrats’ choice for president in 2028. Illinois GOP Chair Kathy Salvi released the following statement on Pritzker: “JB Pritzker failed Illinois as its governor allowing our state to be overrun by illegal border-crossers, out-of-control crime, billions of dollars in new taxes, and as a result, our great state is in slow decay. Illinois’ residents are leaving in unprecedented numbers due to Illinoisans being the overall highest taxed people in the nation. Businesses are taking flight leaving and Illinois’ citizens and taxpayers are left paying the check. As Pritzker soft-launches his campaign for president, Illinois families are hurting, and Pritzker doesn’t care – our state is just another stepping stone for him to advance his ambition while we are saddled with the heavy effect of his administration’s failed policies. One thing is clear from Pritzker’s prime-time speaking slot — the only way our state will have actual representation is by voting Republican in November.”

Starting in 1980, they successfully used DEI to delay my promotions. After 1986, they successfully used DEI to not promote me anymore. If I had been a Democrat, minority, female, and/or veteran, my superiors would have promoted me into their Senior Executive Service (currently $191,900/year) long before I was 40 in 1988.

— Political parties exist to help elect candidates who can and will defend and advance their platform. The Republican Party platform is conservative. Democrats say the “Republican Party has found itself riven by the influence of its most extreme elements.” But not in Illinois. Since at least the 1970s, the Illinois Republican Party and many other Republican Organizations in Illinois have been ever-increasingly dominated by anti-conservatives, that is, by anti-platform Republicans, that is, by anti-Republicans. Most commonly, they reject the personal responsibility, traditional marriage and family, right to life, immigration, illegal drugs, Second Amendment, and/or equal opportunity (no race or gender based preference giving) planks. That is why Republican candidates lose elections in Illinois.

(FROM THE ARTICLE: Our increasingly imperial executive branch has become the center of American politics as the presidency itself shrinks into irrelevancy. It is a dangerous dynamic that threatens the future of our country, and it’s been exposed during our current president’s lamest of lame-duck final months in office. President Joe Biden—if we can still give him that title—appears to be using his last three months as the commander in chief to vacation, snooze, and eat ice cream.)

— DEI’s Tragic Destruction of Law Enforcement. – Selwyn Duke (COMMENT: I should write a book about my Democrat and RINO superiors who have ever-increasingly lowered standards to advance Democrats and RINOs who are minority, female, younger, unmarried, LGBTQ, veteran, non-Protestant, non-German American, and/or have ancestors who have not been in America for a long time. The aforesaid has ever-increasingly rendered worthless my three master’s degrees, my six professional certifications, my professional license, etc.)
https://thenewamerican.com/us/failure-femmes-deis-tragic-destruction-of-law-enforcement/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: It was 10 years ago already that the Obama administration sued the Pennsylvania State Police for treating women equally. Female applicants, they said, should not have to meet the same already dumbed-down physical standards the men do. This mentality, epitomized by Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) schemes, has long reigned all across law enforcement — and beyond. The consequences are now apparent, too: Many women in law enforcement are failing miserably and are imperiling others in the process. This is reflected in the recent story about a female Secret Service (SS) agent who left her post without permission Wednesday, at a North Carolina Donald Trump campaign event, to nurse her baby (tweet below). The woman, who works out of the Atlanta Field Office, wasn’t supposed to bring a child to a protective assignment in the first place. Apparently, though, the SS failures in Butler, Pennsylvania, that enabled the Trump assassination attempt didn’t make an impression on her.)
