CHICAGO TRIBUNE
— First round of ‘ancestors’ chosen for Evanston’s Restorative Housing Program reparations grants, but the selection draws more criticism of the historic offering – JOSHUA IRVINE
(COMMENT: Ever-increasingly, Democrats hint/imply/argue/shout that if you are a conservative old White male Republican, the longer that your ancestors have been in America, the more that you have benefited from their discrimination against minorities and against women. How soon, if not already, will Democrats demand that conservative old White male Republicans disclose when their ancestors immigrated to America, where they immigrated from, where they lived, what they did, etc.? All my ancestors immigrated during the 1840s and 1850s from what is now Germany. They always lived in northeast Illinois. On my father’s side, they worked in a brick factory in Chicago, homesteaded a farm in southeast Crete, and then operated Crete’s only hardware store. On my mother’s side, they were share-croppers and then bought and operated a farm in Grant Park along the Indiana border.)

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.

(COMMENT: I bought a new town home in University Park in 1972 when I was 24 years old. I had earned a bachelor’s degree in management from NIU in 1970.

That income also enabled me to buy a new 1972 Corvette in 1971 and to pay for tuition and books for graduate business courses at Loyola for the previous 9 months.)

(COMMENT: I took graduate accounting courses at DePaul 1976-1980, I took the Becker CPA Review 1978-1979, and I passed the CPA examination on my first attempt in 1979. But I should have majored in accounting at UIC 1966-1968, NIU 1969-1970, and Loyola 1972-1976 and taken the examination much sooner. I worked for IRS 1971-1980 as a Revenue Officer, the last 5 1/2 year of which at the GS-12 Step 1-5 Levels, currently $88,229-$99,994/year. I should write a book about Democrat IRS Chicago office Revenue Agents who looked down on Revenue Officers. They were furious when I passed the CPA examination on my first attempt while many IRS Revenue Agents failed to do that.)

POLITICO ILLINOIS
— Cook County Dems’ Super Tuesday – SHIA KAPOS
(COMMENT: The Illinois Republican Party, DuPage County Republican Central Committee, and Milton Township Republican Organization do not have an “open process.”)
https://www.politico.com/newsletters/illinois-playbook/2021/11/17/cook-county-dems-super-tuesday-495135
(FROM THE ARTICLE: There was pizza, beer and political drama last night as hundreds of Cook County Democrats gathered in restaurants and school classrooms on Chicago’s North Side to cast their ballots for candidates they want to endorse in 2022. Some wards are still counting, but Norwood Park and 38th Ward Democrats announced at about 10:30 p.m. that they’re endorsing Alexi Giannoulias for Illinois secretary of state, Tom Dart for another term as Cook County sheriff and Kari Steele for Cook County assessor — a surprise given she’s a South Sider competing against incumbent Fritz Kaegi. Official slating is Dec. 13 and 14. Talk about democracy at work. Last night’s pre-slating process was a far cry from the old days of backroom decision-making about who would appear on campaign literature and mailings. “Now we make decisions collectively and openly and everyone who’s involved in electing Democrats gets a say in the process,” Paul Rosenfeld, the 47th Ward Committeeman, told Playbook after leaving DePaul College Prep, where candidates spoke for up to five minutes and took questions from Democrats in the ward. Democrats from the 40th Ward were also in that slating. In all of the locations on the North Side, party members took a ballot before taking their seats and listening to the candidates. Everyone gave their elevator pitch about why they deserve an endorsement, including 14 water reclamation candidates — who gave an earful about flooding and “green infrastructure.” Even Cook County Board President Toni Preckwinkle, who doesn’t have a challenger for 2022, went through the process. There was energy in the crowd and plenty of chatter about issues. “It was good to be together again talking about politics,” a Democrat from the 41st Ward said after leaving Dino’s Pizzeria, a joint owned by County Commissioner Kevin Morrison’s family and where beer and thin slice pizza was served (on the North Side no less). Democrats from the 39th and 50th wards were also at Dino’s. The open process for slating candidates has been a gradual change. It has nothing to do with new leadership in the state Democratic Party, which is also calling for more transparency. It’s come about because the patronage system, which was common as recently as 10 years ago, has ended. Ward bosses can’t hand out jobs, so they are looking for new ways to engage Democrats and keep them excited for volunteering. Being part of the decision process does that. And the beer helps.)
— Republican state Rep. Seth Lewis is running for the Illinois Senate’s 24th District seat. Lewis currently represents the 45th House District. “I love being the voice in Springfield for the communities that I currently represent,” Lewis said in a statement. “After the implementation of the new legislative maps, I am fortunate to have the opportunity to continue serving our region on a greater scale by running for the state Senate. My goal as an elected official remains to make Illinois a place where people want to live, not to leave.” – SHIA KAPOS

I would identify all the promotions that I applied for but was not selected. After my GAO mentor succeeded in promoting me in 1986, my Democrat GAO superiors a) forced him to retire in 1987, b) told me to never apply for a promotion again, c) threw me off audits of IRS, d) gave me bad job assignments, e) gave me unfair performance expectations, f) gave me unfair performance appraisals, g) always ranked me in the bottom half of my coworkers for pay-for-performance purposes, and h) forced me to take their early retirement “offer” in 1997 when I was 49 years old. Previously, they had kept me off audits of IRS 1980-1985 and forced me to take a $20,361 (21%) pay cut in today’s dollars to transfer from IRS to GAO in 1980.)

I should write a book about my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes. They hint/imply/argue/shout that instead of me, those jobs should have been given to minorities, females, those who were younger than me, LGBTQers, veterans, moderates, liberals, Trump-haters, non-married people, those who have less money than others, those who have dependents, those who have financial problems, those who have health problems, those who have less education, less work experience, fewer professional certifications, and/or no professional licenses, non-Protestants, non-German Americans, citizens of foreign countries, those whose ancestors have not been in America for a long time, etc.)

— The fake news sites pushing Republicans’ critical race theory scare. Local sites in Virginia published tens of thousands of conservative-skewed articles, many of them misleading or wrong, in the past 11 months. – Adam Gabbatt
(COMMENT: According to my critics/opponents, all government and political news and commentary is fake and misleading except for the government and political news and commentary that they put out or bless. I should write a book about my critics/opponents.

— Gov. J.B. Pritzker dumps chair of board that oversees hiring and promotions at Illinois State Police – RAY LONG and DAN PETRELLA
(COMMENT: Extremely few of my Democrat GAO superiors, supervisors, coworkers, and subordinates had relevant work experience outside of GAO. Extremely few had experience working for other federal agencies. So of course, because GAO audits IRS and because I had worked for IRS for almost 9 years, the last 5 1/2 years of which at the GS-12 Step 1-5 Levels, currently $85,935-$97,395/year, they viciously demonized, denigrated, and condemned my IRS experience. They succeeded in keeping me off audits of IRS for all but 3 of the almost 18 years that I worked for GAO, that is, they succeeded in wasting my knowledge of IRS.)

(COMMENT: I should write a book about Diersen v. GAO. In 1997, when I was 49 years old, my Democrats GAO superiors forced me to take their early retirement “offer” a) to further punish me for my opposing their political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, age discrimination, and retaliation, b) to further punish me for my becoming an active member in a class action lawsuit in 1988 that charged them with reverse discrimination, age discrimination, and retaliation, and c) to allow them to give my job and my preferred corner office to my Black subordinate, which they did. Previously, they had given me unfair performance expectations and appraisals, always ranked me in the bottom half of my coworkers for pay-for-performance purposes, did not promote me beyond GS-13, got rid of my mentor in 1987 who had hired me in 1980, got me assigned to audits of IRS in 1986, and promoted me in 1986, kept me off audits of IRS for all but 3 (1986-1988) 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. In my book, I would focus on RINO federal elected officials in Illinois, their staff members, political consultants, major donors, fundraisers, pollsters, campaign managers, campaign staff members, and staff members who sided with my Democrat GAO superiors.)

NIU TODAY
— New policies help bring diversity to incoming class
(COMMENT: I transferred from UIC to NIU in January of 1969 when I was 20 years old. If I was a 20 year old UIC student today, I doubt that NIU would admit me. My demographics are terrible. I am White, male, conservative, Republican, baptized, raised, and confirmed as a Missouri Synod Lutheran, 100% German national origin, my parents were not poor, and my ancestors have been in America since 1844. When NIU accepted me, I had been a part-time Park Forest Post Office employee since November of 1966, I had no debts, I owned a 1969 Dodge Charger SE, and I had a student draft deferment. I had just made it into the upper 20% of my 1966 Crete-Monee High School class and my ACT was only 24.)
https://www.niutoday.info/2021/10/04/new-policies-help-bring-diversity-to-incoming-class/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: In its first full year of utilizing test-free criteria for admissions and merit scholarships, NIU has attracted the most diverse incoming class in university history. Nearly 70% of all incoming freshmen identify as persons of color, with 38% identifying as Black, 21.5% as Hispanic, 4% as Asian and 6% as “other.” The remaining 30% identified as white. Among incoming students, 57% were the first in their family to attend college. “As a university that is committed to equity and inclusion, we are thrilled that we are becoming an institution of choice for all students,” said NIU President Dr. Lisa C. Freeman. “This demonstrates that our efforts to make NIU accessible and affordable to all students are working. A diverse campus is a healthier, more vibrant campus, so we want a student body that reflects the demographics of the region we serve – in terms of race, gender and socio-economic background.”)

POLITICO ILLINOIS
— State Sen. Darren Bailey clobbers his opponents in the GOP primary race for governor, according to a Republican-focused poll obtained by Playbook. The five-question survey was conducted by Ogden & Fry Sunday and Monday among 404 respondents “selected by random sampling of likely Republican primary voters.” The margin of error for the poll is +/- 4.98 percent. Asked if the primary were held today, 33 percent of respondents said they would vote for Bailey, compared to 6 percent for entrepreneur Jesse Sullivan, 5 percent for businessman Gary Rabine, and 3 percent for former state Sen. Paul Schimpf. Nearly 50 percent, however, are undecided. The poll also backs up familiar conservative GOP themes. Respondents support masks being optional in schools (88 percent) to combat Covid-19 compared to 12 percent who back mandates. And the poll shows Republican respondents still view former President Donald Trump favorably, 86.6 percent to 13.1 percent. The poll followed the well-funded but little known Sullivan already coming out with TV ads for the June 2022 primary to determine who will take on Democratic Gov. J.B. Pritzker. – Shia Kapos

(FROM THE ARTICLE: For more than a decade, Texas native Don Kirchoff has used Facebook to share news and information with fellow conservatives. The longtime Heritage Foundation supporter and Heritage Action Sentinel frequently posts articles from The Daily Signal as well as content from other conservative organizations and media outlets. But is anyone seeing them? Many of Kirchoff’s Facebook posts have zero likes or comments, prompting him to take his case directly to Facebook. While that worked in the past, he has noticed the problem more often. Kirchoff captured screenshots and shared them with The Daily Signal, which is Heritage’s multimedia news organization, as well as Facebook. He joins “The Daily Signal Podcast” to explain the situation and raise awareness for other conservatives.)
