CHICAGO SUN-TIMES
— Adam Kinzinger goes to Texas in search of anti-Trump Republicans. Kinzinger met privately with one sympathetic Republican, former President George W. Bush, on his first day in the state. And on the second, he had lunch with Michael Wood, the only openly anti-Trump Republican competing on Saturday in a crowded special election for a seat in Congress. – AP

— Are we a ‘racist nation’? Who’s asking? – CLARENCE PAGE
(DIERSEN: Overwhelmingly, citizens of foreign countries who come to America are minorities. If America is a racist nation, why do so many minorities want to come to America and to stay in America? Ever-increasingly, Democrats use government a) to give minorities preference over Whites and b) to give citizens of foreign countries preference over citizens of America. Democrats have declared a Second Civil War on Republicans. Democrats see minorities and citizens of foreign countries as being their soldiers in their army to get rid of Republicans once and for all.)

CRAIN’S CHICAGO BUSINESS
— Basecamp employees bail out after CEO bans political talk. More than a dozen people say they’re resigning from the Chicago-based maker of project management systems. – JOHN PLETZ
(DIERSEN: While I worked for the Democrats who ran GAO’s Chicago office 1980-1997, my Democrat coworkers and Democrat subordinates frequently asked me questions to get me to affirm a) that I was a conservative Republican, b) that I opposed political affiliation discrimination, c) that I opposed reverse discrimination, that is, that I opposed race and gender based preference giving, d) that I opposed age discrimination, e) that I had avoided the draft, f) that I was 100% German American, g) that I was a Missouri Synod Lutheran, h) that my ancestors had been in America since 1844, h) that had lived in Crete 1948-1972 and that I had lived in Wheaton since 1978, i) that my wife had a good job, j) that my wife and I had given up trying to have children, that we did not adopt, and we did not become foster parents, k) that we had a home built in Wheaton in 1984, l) that I bought collector cars in 1989 and 1994, m) that etc. Of course, they shared my responses with my Democrat supervisors and superiors.)

MILWAUKEE INDEPENDENT
— DIERSEN HEADLINE: How long have your ancestors been in America? Even-increasingly, according to Democrats, if you are a White male Republican, the longer that your ancestors have been in America, a) the more that you have benefitted from their discrimination against minorities and against females, b) the more reparations that you should pay, and c) the more that you should pay the price of Affirmative Action, Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion. My critics/opponents stress that my ancestors have been in America since 1844, that I am White, that I am male, that I am Republican, that I am old (born in 1948), that I am conservative, that I was baptized, raised, and confirmed as a Missouri Synod Lutheran, that I am 100% German national origin, that I lived in Crete 1948-1972 and I have lived in Wheaton since 1978, that I avoided the draft, that my wife and I never had dependents, that I have good health, and that I am not poor. In my defense, I stress that my ancestors always lived in northeast Illinois, that they never had enough clout to discriminate against anyone even if they wanted to, that I bought a new town home in University Park in 1972, that I was a union member for almost 12 years, and that my Democrat superiors in the federal government forced me to pay the price of Affirmative Action, Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion big time.)

ILLINOIS DEPARTMENT OF FINANCIAL AND PROFESSIONAL REGULATION
— Illinois Department of Financial and Professional Regulation Announces Prior Convictions Not a Barrier to Receiving Professional Licenses
(DIERSEN: In 1981, when I was 32 years old, I became the only licensed CPA in GAO’s Chicago office. Of course, my Democrat GAO superiors, supervisors, coworkers, and subordinates were furious about that. My qualifications for being licensed included my passing the CPA examination on my first attempt in 1979, my having worked for IRS for almost 9 years, my having worked for GAO for 16 months, and my passing the Certified Internal Auditor (CIA) examination on my first attempt in 1981. Few of my GAO coworkers and subordinates had taken the CPA or CIA examinations, let alone passed them, let alone passed them on their first attempt. Few of my GAO coworkers and subordinates had any work experience before GAO hired them.)

NATIONAL REVIEW
— The Inequality of ‘Equity’ Progressive racial ideology points toward a dangerous neo-segregation – CHRISTOPHER CALDWELL
(DIERSEN: What do your critics/opponents attribute your accomplishments to? First, my critics/opponents downplay/belittle my accomplishments. 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. IRS promoted me in 1972, 1973, and 1974 and GAO promoted me in 1986. Second, they hint/imply/argue/shout that whatever accomplishments that I had were because I unfairly benefitted from my being a White male. But they know full-well that if I had been a minority or a female with the aforesaid degrees, professional certifications, and professional license, IRS and GAO would have promoted me into their Senior Executive Services long before I was 40 years old.)
https://www.nationalreview.com/magazine/2021/05/17/inequality-of-equity/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: But in two ways the equity movement is radically new. First is in the categorical simplicity of its diagnosis. It views all inequality across groups as illegitimate on its face — as evidence of white racism, in fact. Second is in its tools. Equity doesn’t concern itself with more-traditional understandings of inequality — differences, say, between bosses and laborers. It is about equality for blacks, as laid out in the Civil Rights Act of 1964, and for the various groups, from immigrants to transgender people, that have come under the act’s protection in the decades since.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: The drafting subcommittee voted to reject planks calling for immediate wage and price controls, an immediate $12 billion anti-recession program and restraints on imports of foreign cars and steel, among others proposed by the Kennedy supporters on the panel. . .The Carter loyalists involved in the process took the position that since their man had won the overwhelming majority of convention delegates in the state primaries and caucuses, they should write the main points of the platform. The Kennedy camp — consistent with the current position on its candidate — refused to acknowledge a Carter victory, and refused to alter any of the important positions Kennedy has taken this year. Instead, the Kennedy loyalists on the platform drafting committee offered those positions as planks in the platform, and the pro-Carter majority consistently beat them back. . .All these were embodied in proposed platform planks, and all were rejected in the drafting committee yesterday by 7-to-5 or 8-to-5 votes. The committee consists of nine pro-Carter members, five pro-Kennedy members and one neutral, but all the Carter members were not in the meeting room yesterday.)

— How Do You Prove A Harassment Claim? – Eric Bachman
(DIERSEN: I should write a book about the hostile work environment that my Democrat superiors, supervisors, coworkers, and subordinates in the federal government created for federal employees who were Republican like me. I should write a book about the hostile environment that Democrat plant, Libertarian plant, Green plant, Independent plant, and RINO leaders, their operatives, and their dupes created in the Milton Township Republican Organization, Wheaton Chamber of Commerce, TAPROOT Republicans of Illinois, Illinois Center Right Coalition, and American Association of Political Consultants Midwest Chapter created for conservatives like me.)
https://www.natlawreview.com/article/how-continuing-violation-doctrine-can-help-your-employment-discrimination-case
(FROM THE ARTICLE: In a typical harassment/hostile work environment claim under Title VII of the 1964 Civil Rights Act, an employee must show that the discriminatory acts were severe or pervasive. The acts must also be based the employee’s protected characteristic (for example, gender, race, national origin, religion, disability). Petty slights and generally rude behavior will not rise to the level of an unlawful hostile work environment. A hostile work environment claim is different than other types of discrimination claims, such as failure to promote or hire, because the latter involve discrete acts that can be pinpointed to a particular date. Harassment claims, on the other hand, often involve a series of events that in the aggregate constitute a hostile work environment. Even if some of the specific acts standing alone may not be actionable as harassment, the cumulative effect of them can be.)

She said the loss of manufacturing jobs for decades is a big factor in that movement. Cordova said the state must begin to do things differently to reverse the trend, especially in rural areas.)

https://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2021/apr/28/biden-racial-equity-agenda-targets-exclusionary-si/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: President Biden wants to transform the character of many American cities and suburbs by building more apartment buildings in quiet and frequently disproportionately White neighborhoods of single-family homes. The Biden administration sees remnants of America’s segregationist past in what it calls “exclusionary” zoning laws, which allow only single-family homes in large swaths of cities and suburbs. As part of a racial equity agenda the president is pursuing in his massive infrastructure plan, Mr. Biden would send federal grants to cities if they eliminate those zoning laws and allow more lower-income people, often minorities, in areas that typically have better schools and fewer social ills that plague poor, inner-city communities.)

— House passes bill to rename, revamp affirmative action policy in Illinois – Jakob Emerson
(DIERSEN: Ever-increasingly, Republican-haters give preferential treatment to members of protected groups. Protected Groups include: Democrats, Libertarians, Greens, Independents, RINOs, moderates, liberals, minorities, females, younger people, veterans, LGBTQers, disabled people, those who have less money than others, illegals, non-married people, non-gun owners, non-Christians, non-Protestants, non-Italian Americans, non-German Americans, criminals, boozers, gamblers, stoners, and those whose ancestors have not been in America for a long time.)
https://www.foxillinois.com/news/local/house-passes-bill-to-rename-revamp-affirmative-action-policy-in-illinois
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Illinois lawmakers are looking to revamp affirmative action policies in the state. Under a new bill (HB 3914), all references to affirmative action under Illinois law would be changed instead to be called “positive actions.” If signed into law, the bill would require every state agency to take positive actions they believe are necessary to combat discrimination against employees in a protected class. That means that those who are considered a protected class can be favored for job recruitment or promotions over those that aren’t. According to the bill, “’protected characteristic’ means race and any other characteristic which may be used, either directly or indirectly, to discriminate against or place at a disadvantage such persons having that characteristic.” “It would be something positive and give me, and people like me, the opportunity to have the same jobs, and equity, and housing, and access,” State Rep. Mary Flowers, D-Chicago, said. The bill passed the Illinois House on Thursday, April 22, along party lines and with Democrats in favor. It now heads to the Senate. Republicans opposed say the state’s Central Management Services is against the bill, which is the agency that ensures the other 80 state agencies are running smoothly and efficiently.)

(DIERSEN: I should write a book about those who promote/promoted hatred against Republicans. I would focus on those who falsely paint/painted themselves as being religious, conservative, and/or Republican and who have/had lots of religious, government, political, and/or financial clout in Illinois, DuPage County, Milton Township, and Wheaton.)
https://www.wbap.com/news/hate-america-campaign-is-in-high-gear/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The United States is beset with numerous problems, though none as serious as teaching students and workers why they should hate America. It is an intellectually dishonest game, riddled with distortions and out-and-out lies about American history, as well as tortured interpretations of current events. It is disturbing to note that the left-wing agenda is no longer confined to places like higher education and the media. No, it has been mainstreamed into the corporate world, collegiate and professional sports, and beyond. Some politicians have also embraced the “Hate America” campaign. There are three identifiable stages to this campaign. The baby boomers, who were born after World War II, came of age in the Sixties at a time of unprecedented affluence and domestic strife. The Sixties and Seventies were marked by a movement to hate America, though the agenda of the left was inchoate as compared to the stages that followed. Stage one flowered in academia and in select urban neighborhoods. College students were taught how racist and sexist our heritage is, and how imperialistic our foreign policy is. “Amerikkka,” as it was called, was the land of oppression. It did not matter that those who promoted this lie were Marxists, the masters of oppression. Parts of many urban areas, particularly on the east and west coasts, were overtaken by drug-addicted hippies who preached love while throwing Molotov cocktails at the police. Stage two was born in the Eighties. Just as the college campuses gave rise to the first installment of hatred, they were the site of the second wave. Its principal vehicle was multiculturalism. This pedagogical tool was never about teaching students to appreciate diverse cultures; rather, it was used as an ideological weapon to trash Western civilization and its Judeo-Christian heritage. Pope Benedict XVI wasn’t fooled. Multiculturalism, he observed, has led to “a peculiar Western self-hatred that is nothing short of pathological.” The distinguished historian, Arthur M. Schlesinger Jr., was more specific. “There is surely no reason for Western civilization to have guilt trips laid on it by champions of cultures based on despotism, superstition, tribalism, and fanaticism.” Multiculturalism is also about fomenting division, segregating various demographic groups, emphasizing how little we have in common. We see expressions of it today. The class of 2021 at Columbia University allows for separate “Multicultural Graduation Celebrations.” The menu includes events for Native, Asian, “Latinx” (it is not chic to have masculine and feminine identifiers, as in Latinos and Latinas, respectively), African Americans, Lavender (homosexuals and transgender persons) and FLI (first-generation, low-income students). This obviously presents a dilemma for rich gay first-generation persons of mixed ancestry, but such is life at the Ivies these days. The third stage of the “Hate America” campaign, which began in the 1990s and is now in full bloom, is grounded in critical race theory, an ideology that was crafted by racists to combat racism. It is a curious blend of Marxism (the capitalists are the oppressive class) and racism (white people are inherently racist). Its popularity is widespread, extending from the halls of government to Wall Street. The Biden administration is currently weighing strategies to implement critical race theory in the schools, making certain that no one will escape participation in the “Hate America” campaign. Where do you rank on the scale of “power and privilege?” That is what first-grade students in California are being asked. In Missouri, middle-school teachers are being asked to rate themselves on an “oppression” index. Predictably, the bad guys are white, heterosexual, English-speaking, Christian males. They oppress people. Take note of that, Oprah. The college campuses are alive with critical race theory. Michigan State University will hold a conference in May instructing white students to admit their “white privilege,” even if reared in a foster home. At Smith College, all employees were forced to undergo “antibias” training after a black student claimed she was racially profiled. It was later learned that she lied. Georgetown fired a tenured professor for simply noting that her black law students were not doing well in her classes. There is little pushback in the corporations, or on the college campuses, against the “Hate America” campaign, but there are signs that parents of elementary school students have had enough. In New York City, Megyn Kelly pulled her two children from a pricey Upper West side school. She was followed by a father who took his daughter out of an expensive Upper East side school; he made his informed letter public, sharing it with the school’s parents. A faculty member at Grace Church School in Greenwich Village recently went public with his complaints against the headmaster: He accused him of “demonizing white people for being born.” Not until more Americans object to these pernicious “Hate America” campaigns in the workplace, schools, and government will we liberate ourselves from this demonic attack on our heritage and our sensibilities. The barbarians are not at the gate—they’ve captured our culture and our institutions.)

https://www.americanthinker.com/blog/2021/04/where_to_get_straight_news.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The gorilla in the room is Breitbart. It has two problems. The first is that, while it is generally a good source, it clearly pushes its product in the conservative direction. The second is that its website is formatted like a tabloid. If you want straight news, try Just the News or One America News Network. Newsmax and Fox are generally good, but neither sticks to straight news very well. The Epoch Times or the Wall Street Journal may also suit you. You may have to search for what you want. News aggregators such as The Liberty Daily, Citizen Free Press, Populist Press, and Conservative Playlist may have what you’re looking for. Once you leave pure news, you’ll be looking at commentary. If you want all sorts of viewpoints, RealClearPolitics is without peer. You’ll find the whole spectrum there, including the insane left. You pick and choose. There are also the three commentary sites I write for: American Thinker, Townhall, and NOQReport. There are lots of others, and as you follow hyperlinks in articles on those sites, you’ll discover more than you can possibly read. Particularly good ones are The Federalist, Reason Magazine, American Greatness, Daily Wire, and American Spectator.)

The surveys show that personal attitudes are not racist, as do voting patterns that elect blacks to the highest offices, and as does the huge spike in interracial marriages. If all of that were not enough, for fifty years “affirmative action” has given special preferences and privileges to blacks in education, business, and government.)

NEW YORK TIMES
— C.E.O. Pay Remains Stratospheric, Even at Companies Battered by Pandemic. While millions of people struggled to make ends meet, many of the companies hit hardest in 2020 showered their executives with riches. – David Gelles
(DIERSEN: I should write a book about those who have viciously demonized me, viciously denigrated me, and viciously condemned me the most as being overpaid. 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.)
https://www.nytimes.com/2021/04/24/business/ceos-pandemic-compensation.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Boeing had a historically bad 2020. Its 737 Max was grounded for most of the year after two deadly crashes, the pandemic decimated its business, and the company announced plans to lay off 30,000 workers and reported a $12 billion loss. Nonetheless, its chief executive, David Calhoun, was rewarded with some $21.1 million in compensation. Norwegian Cruise Line barely survived the year. With the cruise industry at a standstill, the company lost $4 billion and furloughed 20 percent of its staff. That didn’t stop Norwegian from more than doubling the pay of Frank Del Rio, its chief executive, to $36.4 million. And at Hilton, where nearly a quarter of the corporate staff were laid off as hotels around the world sat empty and the company lost $720 million, it was a good year for the man in charge. Hilton reported in a securities filing that Chris Nassetta, its chief executive, received compensation worth $55.9 million in 2020.)

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.)

(DIERSEN: To get those who are religious, conservative, and/or Republican to leave Illinois, leave DuPage County, leave Milton Township, and leave Wheaton, Democrats and RINOs do everything that they can to get Illinois, DuPage County, Milton Township, Wheaton, Wheaton Chamber of Commerce, and Wheaton Downtown Association to promote a) dependency on government, b) dependency on charity, c) LGBTQ, d) abortion, d) mass/illegal immigration, e) booze, gambling, pot, and other vices, f) abolition of the First and Second Amendments, g) patronage, h) political affiliation discrimination, i) reverse discrimination, and j) age discrimination.)
https://www.theepochtimes.com/the-united-states-of-two-americas_3782214.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: A part of this blue/red separation is the manifest “Digital Apartheid” that is being applied by the blue side to the red side to create two social media systems. This Digital Apartheid is pervasive and driven by the new, vicious, lockstep, “social justice” mantra that has taken over the automatons who lead U.S. social media. We are experiencing an unprecedented shakedown by groups such as Black Lives Matter (BLM) and Antifa who broadcast through their relentless bullhorn of social media and old media. There are now two business systems in America—blue and red. Many of the businesses that lead major market sectors have now revealed themselves to be de-facto thought police to enforce Social Justice. MyPillow CEO Mike Lindell is the poster child of this, as he has been targeted for elimination by the self-appointed high priests of “wokism.” We’re also finding out there are two financial systems in America, as those with capital now act as the gatekeepers of who receives capital and who is excluded. Bank of America has become “Bank of who I decide to allow access to the capital system.” That’s a far cry from the intent of its founder, who wanted to make sure all had access. The modern bank staff has now become an appendage of the virtue-signaling synchronized chorus. There are now two media systems in America. The Hollywood award shows are now a Roman circus of self-loathing, lecturing, and virtue signaling. Few are watching these award shows—in fact, few are watching legacy media as ratings collapse. It’s curious from an agnostic business perspective how CNN even survives at this point in time. Somehow the citizen’s pocketbook is being fleeced by corporations and advertisers who recycle ad revenue through “woke” media to keep them alive when it’s patently obvious the viewership has imploded—but that’s the beauty of the new era of crony capitalism (which is a transition phase to socialism). The citizens of our nation have consciously or unconsciously chosen sides. If you’re angry at yourself for not being woke enough and have righteous virtue-signal signs in your yard lauding BLM, you’re likely on the blue side. If the drivel of virtue signaling makes no sense to you, you’re probably on the red side.)

(DIERSEN: Where have you been? I was a federal employee for almost 30 years. I saw how the Democrats who run the federal government use Affirmative Action, Diversity, and Inclusion, that is, political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, and age discrimination, to get rid of federal employees who were Republican, and especially those Republican employees who were conservative, White, male, older, non-veteran, heterosexual, married, non-poor, gun owners, Protestant, German American, and/or those whose ancestors have been in America for a long time. I have been a member of the Milton Township Republican Organization since 1999.

— FRONT PAGE: ‘We grieve with the Floyd family’: Police meet Chauvin verdict with cheers, fears, uncertainty – Burt Constable
(DIERSEN: Each and every Republican Precinct Committeeman in DuPage County should know what Mendrick has said about the Chauvin verdict (SEE BELOW). Needless-to-say, each and every Republican leader in DuPage County should encourage each and every Republican Precinct Committeemen in DuPage County to read GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters.)
https://www.dailyherald.com/news/20210421/we-grieve-with-the-floyd-family-police-meet-chauvin-verdict-with-cheers-fears-uncertainty-
(FROM THE ARTICLE: DuPage County Sheriff James Mendrick said he supports a bodycam system that activates the cameras of every officer at the scene whenever one pulls out a gun or Taser. “I want the public to see exactly what we’re doing from every angle,” he said. Calling Floyd’s murder an “atrocity,” Mendrick said his deputies are getting training in avoiding violent confrontations. “Anything that can drop the level of force is desired,” Mendrick said, adding that Tasers give officers an option between bare hands and a deadly gun. As an officer, he carried a Taser for 11 years. “I never had to pull the trigger,” said Mendrick, who would explain the Taser to offenders. “Please don’t make me do this.” DuPage County deputies also are getting training in how to deal with mental health issues, crisis intervention and diversity training with the NAACP. Interviews with inmates showed that one of the major reasons for confrontations is when police ask people of color for identification without probable cause. “We’re using that to guide our training,” Mendrick said.)

Weeks before the killing, Netanyahu stood on a balcony above Jerusalem’s Zion Square, where thousands of right-wing protesters vowed to “get rid of” Rabin, whom they called a “traitor” and a “Nazi” for signing a peace agreement with the Palestinians earlier that year.)

Overwhelmingly, my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes are filled with hatred against unions, against current union members, and against former union members.

(DIERSEN: What do you say to those who badmouth and backstab others?

Nevertheless, 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.

https://www.forbes.com/sites/chrislowney/2021/04/20/treachery-trust-and-courage-how-to-avoid-organizational-hell/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Every large organization, for example, suffers at least a few back-stabbers who badmouth or undermine colleagues, or who take credit for others’ ideas, or who play office politics by fomenting tribal rivalries that pit work teams against each other. Such soul-deadening behavior has hellish organizational consequences: productivity erodes, employees become alienated and unhappy, and so on.)
