POLITICO
— Same old Joe: Rebuffing staff who smoked pot fits Biden’s MO. The White House press secretary acknowledged Friday that marijuana use has led to five staffers losing their jobs. – NATALIE FERTIG and MONA ZHANG (DIERSEN: Of course, sooner or later, pot pushers will get rid of Biden if he does not legalize pot.)
https://www.politico.com/news/2021/03/19/same-old-joe-rebuffing-staff-who-smoked-pot-fits-bidens-mo-477283
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Despite a shift in public opinion toward legalizing marijuana over the past 30 years, the president’s more conservative approach to weed policy is well-known on Capitol Hill. When the Daily Beast reported late Thursday that “dozens” of young White House staffers had been suspended, asked to resign or placed in a remote work program after admitting to prior marijuana use, pro-cannabis lawmakers were dismayed Friday but hardly shocked. “It is another very vivid example of the clash between outmoded past policies, and where America is, and where America is going,” Rep. Earl Blumenauer (D-Ore.), Capitol Hill’s unofficial weed czar, said in an interview. “It’s not, probably, surprising.” Blumenauer is already putting together a letter with other lawmakers “seeking clarification” from the Biden administration on the dismissals. Many Republican and Democratic lawmakers, including Vice President Kamala Harris, have shifted their positions on cannabis legalization in recent years. But Biden — who, as a senator, shepherded the 1994 crime bill that disproportionately hit communities of color and set mandatory minimum sentences for marijuana possession — has never truly warmed to the idea. As recently as last year, Biden’s staff rejected marijuana legalization as part of the Democratic Party policy platform. It was a step backwards from 2016, when the party made history by endorsing a “pathway” to legalization. “They did not support descheduling and legalization,” said Rep. Barbara Lee (D-Calif.), a co-chair of the Congressional Cannabis Caucus who worked with the Biden campaign on the Democratic party platform last summer. She’s requesting a meeting with the administration to discuss cannabis policy, including the latest uproar about personnel. In an interview, she added that the White House’s recent actions don’t surprise her. “What this shows is the impact of those laws.” Instead of endorsing full legalization, Biden’s campaign proposed a patchwork of changes to federal drug law that would legalize, decriminalize and continue to prohibit cannabis in a variety of ways that experts say will be difficult to implement. “His approach is very piecemeal,” said John Hudak, an expert on cannabis policy and executive powers at the Brookings Institution. “It’s hard to see how that plays out.” The White House’s decision to dismiss or penalize employees for marijuana demonstrates the gap between the Biden administration and the majority of his party, who increasingly see decriminalization or outright legalization as a major criminal justice reform issue. White House press secretary Jen Psaki downplayed the Daily Beast report in a pair of tweets Friday, while saying the security screenings wouldn’t “automatically” disqualify a job candidate who had used marijuana. “The bottom line is this: of the hundreds of people hired, only five people who had started working at the White House are no longer employed as a result of this policy,” she added. Nearly all of Biden’s competitors in the 2020 Democratic presidential primary issued full-throated endorsements of federal marijuana legalization. And two years ago, angling for the White House herself, Harris, then a senator from California, joked about smoking pot. “I have … and I did inhale,” she told the hosts of The Breakfast Club about smoking in college. “It was a long time ago … I think it gives a lot of people joy and we need more joy.” On the debate stage, Biden’s primary opponents took him to task for his reluctance to embrace marijuana legalization. Criminal justice reform advocates blame the harsh drug laws championed by Biden and other lawmakers in the 1990s for locking people up on overly punitive marijuana offenses. But Biden planted himself, suggested that marijuana was a gateway drug, generating criticism that led him to walk back that statement. He also later said he did not think people should be locked up for marijuana and wanted to see marijuana records expunged — a departure from the senator who criticized Republican President George H.W. Bush’s anti-drug plan for not going far enough. “We have to join together to ensure that drug dealers are punished swiftly, surely and severely … we have to hold every drug user accountable,” Biden said at the time. Now, a third of Americans live in a state where marijuana is legal and a majority support full legalization, including 83 percent of Democrats. Congress is trending that way too: The House passed a bill to legalize marijuana in December, and the Senate plans to soon follow suit. Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer himself is drafting a new legalization bill and has previously promised that if Democrats led the chamber, legalization would be a priority. Sens. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) and Schumer have sweeping approaches to cannabis reform, while Biden’s strategy, Hudak says, is ”public policy with a scalpel rather than hatchet.” On the campaign trail, Biden touted his support for decriminalizing cannabis and moving marijuana from Schedule I to Schedule II. Marijuana is classified as a Schedule I substance, the most restrictive category alongside heroin and LSD. But his proposal suggested a lack of familiarity with federal drug laws. Attorneys, state marijuana regulators and cannabis advocates expressed confusion about his support for decriminalization and rescheduling marijuana. Cocaine and methamphetamine are Schedule II substances, and still very much criminalized. It would be difficult, though not impossible, to achieve. As the party’s nominee, Biden had new opportunities to embrace a more progressive stance on legalization, but instead dug in his heels. His attempt to bring in the progressive wing of the party through the “unity” task force with Bernie Sanders elicited compromises on policy areas like climate change, immigration and economic policy — but not on marijuana. The only concession Sanders appointees got on weed policy was to remove a budget rider preventing Washington D.C. from regulating marijuana sales. Even some of Biden’s appointees failed to move him on the issue. As head of the Democratic Party, Biden’s stance has had ripple effects. The party rejected an amendment to support legalization as an official policy plank, instead adopting a platform backing decriminalization and expungement that mirrored Biden’s stance on the issue. Harris also changed her rhetoric once she accepted the Democratic nomination as Biden’s No. 2. The lawmaker who in 2019 sponsored comprehensive legalization in the Senate suddenly shifted to touting cannabis decriminalization rather than legalization. But Biden might join his fellow Democrats in time, Brookings’ Hudak said. “We shouldn’t conflate a president who … is not a tremendous cannabis reformer, with a president who has not changed his views over time,” he said. “Biden is not where a lot of cannabis reformers would like him to be. But he’s not the Joe Biden of 1988 or 1994.”)

CHICAGO SUN-TIMES
— Illinois House Democrats condemn downstate Republican state legislator for Jan. 6 words that ‘greatly crossed the line.’ The rebuke from colleagues came minutes after the southern Illinois cattle farmer stood up and told the chamber that he had “no part in the violent events at the Capitol that day.” The House rejected that defense on a partisan vote. – Andrew Sullender

DAILY HERALD
— Kinzinger’s real motive – Dave Van Singel, Long Grove (DIERSEN: I should write a book about RINOs. RINOs do little or nothing to defend or advance the traditional marriage/family, right to life, immigration, illegal drugs, Second Amendment, or equal opportunity (no race or gender based preference giving) planks in the Republican Party platform. RINOs destroy those like me who support the aforesaid planks. RINOs promote dependency on government, dependency on charity, LGBTQ, abortion, mass/illegal immigration, booze, gambling, pot, and other vices, abolition of the First and Second Amendment, patronage, political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, and age discrimination. RINOs do everything that they can to harm/destroy Republican and conservative organizations including the Illinois Republican Party (IRP), DuPage County Republican Central Committee (DCRCC), Milton Township Republican Organization (MTRO), TAPROOT Republicans of Illinois, and Illinois Center Right Coalition. RINOs do everything that can a) to stop me from sending out GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters and b) to stop everyone from reading those newsletters. RINOs talk and/or act like they Democrat plants, Libertarian plants, Green plants, and/or Independent plants. I should write a book about RINOs. I would focus on RINOs who have/had lots of religious, government, political, and/or financial clout in Illinois, DuPage County, Milton Township, and Wheaton. I would focus on those who are/were leaders of the IRP, DCRCC, and MTRO.)
https://www.dailyherald.com/discuss/20210319/kinzingers-real-motive
(FROM THE LETTER: Just recently, March 11, Rep. Kinzinger went full RINO, joined nine other Republicans and voted with Democrats on a bill that will vastly expand required background checks on gun purchasers. One has to wonder that, in order to save his political career in congress, if he will change his party affiliation before November 2021. Good luck, Rep. Kinzinger.)

CBS2
— Preventing Age Discrimination – Audrina Bigos (DIERSEN: Candidates for jobs with the federal government who are Republican, White, male, and/or non-veteran should be advised a) that their careers will be wasted and they will be gotten rid of if they do not make GS-13 (currently $102,188) by age 25, GS-14 (currently $120,755) by age 30, GS-15 (currently $142,041) by age 35, and Senior Executive Service (currently $172,500) by age 40 and b) that extremely few federal employees make the aforesaid promotion deadlines.)
https://chicago.cbslocal.com/2021/03/18/career-coach-age-discrimination/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Through this pandemic, the CBS 2 career coach is giving advice about looking for and landing a job, as we continue Working For Chicago. This week our career coach is sharing how to prevent possible age discrimination against older job seekers. “People in that group feel vulnerable, they feel like they’re not sure if they are a viable candidate in the marketplace,” Lynee Alves, president of Interview Like An Expert, said. “For candidates who have more experience, maybe 20 plus years, there are things you can do to make sure you don’t reveal your age.” Alves recommends considering not putting these things on your resume. Leave off your date of birth in your e-mail address, like “johndoe1976.” Don’t put your graduation year and don’t list job experience more than 20 years old that could date you. You can also just leave out the years you worked at those places. “Focus on those jobs that ask for 10 or 15 years of experience,” She said. “That may mean you apply to fewer jobs, but in the end, you’re going to have a more focused and productive job search.”)

I would have a) majored in accounting, b) earned a master’s degree in accounting much sooner, c) taken and passed the CPA examination much sooner, and d) taken and passed the Certified Internal Auditor examination much sooner than I did.)

Only terrorists and convicted felons are excluded — at least in theory, but past experience suggests they’ll get amnesty, too. Even illegal immigrants who’ve already been deported will be invited back and given amnesty. So far, the Republicans’ response has been to propose their own amnesty, while throwing in some boob-bait for the rubes about border security.)

My Democrat GAO superiors forced me to retire in 1997 when I was 49 years old, gave 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, 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. My Democrat IRS 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 resign in 1969 and disallowed my sick leave requests in 1969 and 1968.)

BLOOMINGTON PANTAGRAPH
— Illinois GOP chairman Don Tracy hopes to unify party’s factions, defeat Pritzker next year – BRENDEN MOORE (DIERSEN: Political parties exist to help elect candidates who can and will defend and advance their platform. I have always been a platform Republican. I should write a book about Illinois Republican Party leaders who have worked the hardest since 2000 to get rid of Republicans like me who support the traditional marriage/family, right to life, immigration, illegal drugs, Second Amendment, and equal opportunity (no race or gender based preference giving) planks in the Republican Party platform.)
https://www.pantagraph.com/news/state-and-regional/govt-and-politics/illinois-gop-chairman-don-tracy-hopes-to-unify-partys-factions-defeat-pritzker-next-year/article_9fb79584-66de-5b8a-8d47-5acfddd9bd71.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Tracy is hoping to take the same approach with the Illinois Republican Party, an organization that has been divided between the traditional moderate wing that dominated for decades with central figures like Jim Thompson and Jim Edgar; and an ascendant, conservative wing that has gained traction with the rise of the Tea Party movement and the election of President Donald Trump in 2016. “I think those are the kind of issues that are somewhat similar for a party,” Tracy said. “And you can recognize pretty early on in a family business in a large family that the perfect is the enemy of the good. And in the Republican Party, unfortunately, we’ve had experience with people thinking you have to be perfect to be a Republican, and that that’s not true.” . . . However, Tracy said he will put practicality over purity as he seeks to steer his party back to relevance. He said he envisions a big tent party. In fact, it’s a necessity. “The Reagan rule is 80%. If someone agrees with you on 80% of the issues if a Republican, that means that that Republican is your ally, not your enemy,” Tracy said. “If we don’t unite the party, almost nothing else that we do next year will matter,” Tracy said. “We’re a minority party — a Republican Party in a deep blue state. And we have to have all Republicans working together, not always agreeing about everything, but working together to make this state into a two-party state again.” . . . Exacerbating the problem is a national party that is increasingly out of step with the diversifying, socially moderate Chicago suburbs, albeit increasingly reflective of conservative bastions downstate.)

Elliot and McCully, along with fellow missionaries Nate Saint, Peter Fleming, and Roger Youderian, initially made friendly contact with the tribe and exchanged gifts for several months. On Jan. 8, 1956, however, a group of Huaorani warriors fell upon them, spearing them to death and throwing their bodies in the river.)

Ever-increasingly, I am a Republican who lives in a Democrat bubble. I should write a book about that.)
https://phys.org/news/2021-03-democrats-republicans-partisan.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: New research on political behavior finds that most Democratic and Republican voters live in partisan bubbles, with little daily exposure to those who belong to the other party. For instance the typical Democrat has “almost zero interactions” with Republicans in their neighborhood, according to an article by Harvard doctoral student Jacob R. Brown and government Professor Ryan D. Enos published March 8 in the journal Nature Human Behaviour. “There’s a lot of evidence that any separation between groups has a lot of negative consequences. We see this in race; we see this in religion; we see this in all kinds of things,” said Enos. “And increasingly, we see this in partisanship in the United States.” . . . No area of the country is immune to the segregation, but its intensity varies. Democrats in large, densely populated cities like New York are the most politically isolated, with 10 percent of them encountering a Republican only one out of 10 times in their neighborhood. Republicans in rural areas are similarly segregated. Overall, most Democrats and Republicans live in levels of partisan segregation that exceed what scholars of racial segregation consider highly segregated, the study found. . .”Even within a neighborhood, Democrats and Republicans are separating from each other a little bit,” said Enos. That seems like “an almost unnatural level of segregation” given the similarities people from the same neighborhood usually share and “might indicate there’s something pretty pernicious going on,” he added.)

POLITICO ILLINOIS
— The influence of the Irish political machine may have waned, but Irish eyes smile in Cook County, which ranks first among all U.S. counties for the number of residents with Irish ancestry, according to the U.S. Census. Cook County counts 461,589 residents of Irish descent, some 9 percent of its 5.2 million population. People of Irish ancestry make up 19 percent of the population in Middlesex County, Mass., but the county’s total population is a wee 1.6 million. Cook County tops the list on sheer headcount. Of course, Cook County’s ranking doesn’t surprise residents. “There’s a reason so many judicial candidates over the years have changed their names to sound Irish,” says Abdon Pallasch, the comms director for the state comptroller and one who wears his Irish pride on his sleeve. There was a time it was called the Irish “Murphyia.” House Speaker Michael Madigan, Chicago Mayor Richard M. Daley (and before that, his dad, Richard J. Daley), and Ald. Edward Burke were the bosses. Some say it’s changed. But over the weekend, the Chicago River turned green, a Harmon leads the state Senate, and there’s even a Welch running the Illinois House. “Everybody likes to be Irish in Cook County,” former Illinois Gov. Pat Quinn told Playbook. “Everybody in and no one left out.” – Shia Kapos

https://www.dailysignal.com/2021/03/17/the-history-behind-the-woke-invasion-of-big-business/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Why is corporate America increasingly stepping in to support “woke” social justice causes? “These corporations are part of a movement that has been going on in the West and in this country in particular for the last roughly 100 years to move the culture very consistently and very aggressively to the left in order to more or less make ready the path for the revolution,” says Stephen Soukup, author of the new book “The Dictatorship of Woke Capital: How Political Correctness Captured Big Business.” Soukup joins “The Daily Signal Podcast” to explain how activists have hijacked and twisted the purpose of many of the world’s largest companies to serve left-wing ends, and why Americans need to be concerned about it.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: Sen. Bernie Sanders is using his new perch as Budget Committee chairman to try to keep Congress focused on measures designed to improve worker pay and job conditions, even as related legislation including a $15-an-hour minimum wage has stalled. The Vermont senator is set to introduce legislation Wednesday that would seek to apply an additional tax on corporations where the CEO is paid more than 50 times the median worker. The proposal is among a handful of policies that the progressive ran on during his 2020 presidential campaign and is now pushing from atop the committee, where he can schedule hearings and call witnesses to testify.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: Irish heritage is strong in America: More than 31.5 million residents claim Irish ancestry, second only to German (43.0 million). And when it comes to U.S. presidents, including current President Joe Biden, exactly half (23) trace some of their roots to Ireland. Not surprisingly, the most Irish states are in New England and are geographically connected. However, the five states with the most smiling Irish eyes are the nation’s most populous: California, New York, Pennsylvania, Florida and Texas. But none of these states have the highest percentage of people with Irish ancestry.)

WASHINGTON TIMES
— ‘So much shame’: Woke left-wingers increasingly embarrassed over White ‘privileged’ status – James Varney
https://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2021/mar/8/white-privileged-status-embarrasses-woke-left-wing/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Once associated with Hollywood virtue signalers or those whose racist behavior was exposed by social media or video, apologizing for a White birthday suit has become more mainstream. Former CIA Director John O. Brennan, who currently opines as a paid MSNBC contributor, told the network’s audience last week that he was “increasingly embarrassed to be a white male.” In Amherst, Massachusetts, the Town Council issued a letter of apology and recommended its members for anti-racism training after a White female councilor attempted to participate in a community safety working group that was drafting alternative policing proposals. “As a Town Council of majority white people benefiting from white privilege, we need to continually push ourselves to be actively anti-racist and to be cognizant of the power dynamics that exist between us as elected officials and the members of the global majority including the Black, Indigenous and People of Color (BIPOC) in our community,” the letter said. The council approved the letter last month in an 8-1 vote. Americans are rushing to apologize as their institutions are being infused with critical race theory, an academic viewpoint that White people, all of them to at least some degree, maintain social and economic advantage by oppressing people of color. Meanwhile, The New York Times’ 1619 Project seeks to reframe the nation’s founding at the year when the first slave ship arrived on North American shores, making racism the dominant theme of the American experience. The mindset is increasingly prevalent in schools, government and corporate America. Students and workers are put through classes and seminars that brand all White people as oppressors regardless of their conscious thoughts and actions toward others.)

DISPATCH
— Democrats’ Election Bill Is a Disaster for Free Speech The For the People Act has been hailed as an expansion of voters’ rights, but its real effect will be chilling political speech. – Ryan Morrison
https://thedispatch.com/p/democrats-election-bill-is-a-disaster
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Under the proposed law, an advocacy group that so much as mentions the name of a member of Congress in an ad about important issues will almost always have to expose its major donors. For example, a group could advocate for or against “Biden’s COVID Recovery Bill” and the new regulations will apply. The donors may not know about the ad and may not even agree with its message. It doesn’t matter. They still will be listed on the group’s government filings and posted on the internet for the world to see. Naturally, potential donors will hesitate to give to an organization, especially if the group promotes controversial issues. Think about it. The government is requiring nonprofits to create an “enemies list” for their political opponents. And politicians are not bashful about using this kind of information. For example, in 2019, Rep. Joaquin Castro tweeted the names and employers of major Trump donors in his congressional district. Almost immediately, donors were flooded with harassing and threatening phone calls. No one deserves this abuse, regardless of their political beliefs. Political participation should not come with the risk of a mob showing up in your front yard or losing your job as the latest victim of today’s cancel culture. The consequence of all this will be less speech. Fewer individuals will give to causes they believe in for fear of receiving threats or harassment. Nonprofits will think twice before speaking about the government so they can protect their donors. In a country that prides itself on freedom of political expression, people will be silenced, and organizations will not advocate for their causes.)

My critics/opponents who reject that plank a) hint/imply/argue/shout that if you do not call for giving preference to minorities and to females, you are a White supremacist, Nazi, KKK member, hater, racist, sexist, bigot and even worse things who should be gotten rid of once and for all and b) promote reverse discrimination and age discrimination.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: Heritage Foundation: “Opinion: Biden’s Embrace of ‘Equity’ Means He’s Abandoned the Quest for Equality” — “President Biden preaches unity but practices division. Witness his ‘Executive Order on Advancing Racial Equity and Support for Underserved Communities Through the Federal Government,’ part of an unprecedented barrage of such orders.” Wall Street Journal: “‘Equity’ Is a Mandate to Discriminate” — “On his first day as president, Joe Biden issued an ‘Executive Order on Advancing Racial Equity and Support for Underserved Communities.’ Mr. Biden’s cabinet nominees must now explain whether this commitment to ‘equity’ means they intend to abolish ‘equal treatment under law.’ Their answers are a confused mess.” Wall Street Journal: “How Equality Lost to ‘Equity’” — “The first time Shelby Steele used the word ‘equity’ in one of his books—’White Guilt,’ published in 2006—he was referring to the value his father had accrued in restoring ‘three ramshackle homes to neat lower-middle-class acceptability.’”)

https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2021/03/08/new-wedge-states-rush-block-transgender-athletes/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The US Department of Education suspended a decision that found racial “affinity groups” discriminated against students and staff, The Post has learned. The goal of the programs — used by the New York City public school system and other school districts — is to separate students and staff by racial groups in order to help address discrimination and “white privilege.” But the practice of separating schools into racial groups is discriminatory, a determination obtained by the Post found. The findings — reached during the waning days of former President Trump’s time in office in early January — were in response to a complaint about a Chicago-area school district’s “racial equity” training programs and lesson plans.)
