— Who disapproves of Trump? Those who want more a) welfare, b) LGBTQ, c) abortion, d) mass/illegal immigration, e) booze, gambling, pot, and other vices, f) diminishment of Second Amendment rights, and/or g) Affirmative Action and DEI, that is, more race and gender based preference giving, patronage, political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, age discrimination, religious discrimination, and national origin discrimination. Most commonly, those who want the aforesaid are a) non-rich, b) LGBTQ, c) female and/or unmarried, d) noncitizen and/or have ancestors who have not been in America for a long time, e) liberal/moderate, f) pro-criminal, and/or g) minority, female, younger, non-Protestant, and/or non-German American. How does Marjorie Taylor Greene fit in with the aforesaid? – Dave Diersen

— Duckworth ever-increasingly calls those who do not share her demographics unqualified. That is, she ever-increasingly calls those who are conservative, Republican, White, male, older, non-veteran, non-disabled, Protestant, and/or German American unqualified. Because I am all of the aforesaid, she would certainly call me unqualified. She would stress that I avoided the Vietnam War draft. She would have fought the Post Office hiring me in 1966 instead of someone who shared her demographics. She would have fought IRS hiring me in 1971 and promoting me in 1972, 1973, and 1974 instead of those who shared her demographics. She would have fought GAO hiring me in 1980 and promoting me in 1986 instead of those who shared her demographics. She would stress that my wife and I gave up trying to have children without trying IVF. She would have applauded my Democrat Post Office, IRS and GAO superiors wasting my career. She would especially applaud my Democrat GAO superiors’ forcing me to retire when I was 49 years old in 1997 and giving my job and my preferred corner office to my Black subordinate who had less work experience than I had, had less education than I had, had one professional certification while I had six, and had no professional license like the one (CPA) I had. In my defense, I would stress to Duckworth that I earned a job-related bachelor’s degree, three job-related master’s degrees, six job-related professional certifications, and a job-related professional license. – Dave Diersen

— A Lost Generation of News Consumers? Survey Shows How Teenagers Dislike the News Media. The profession hasn’t been popular among adults for many years, but a new survey shows the extent to which teens aged 13 to 18 feel the same way. DD: I have been the GOPUSA Illinois Editor since 2000. I should write about my critics/opponents. They have always done everything that they could to stop me from sending out GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters and to stop everyone from reading them. They blame me and blame my newsletters for all the defeats that Republican candidates on ballots in my precinct have suffered since 2000.

https://buckscountybeacon.com/2025/11/a-lost-generation-of-news-consumers-survey-shows-how-teenagers-dislike-the-news-media/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Asked by the News Literacy Project for one word to describe today’s news media, 84% of teens responded with something negative — “biased,” “crazy,” “boring,” “fake, ”bad,” “depressing,” “confusing,” “scary.” More than half of the teens surveyed believe journalists regularly engage in unethical behaviors like making up details or quotes in stories, paying sources, taking visual images out of context or doing favors for advertisers. Less than a third believe reporters correct their errors, confirm facts before reporting them, gather information from multiple sources or cover stories in the public interest — practices ingrained in the DNA of reputable journalists. To some degree, teens reflect the attitudes they’re exposed to, particularly when the most prominent politician of their age has made “fake news” a mantra. Experts say few teens follow news regularly or learn in school about the purpose of journalism. Journalists don’t help themselves with mistakes or ethical lapses that make headlines. Opinionated reporters or commentators in an era of political division make readers wonder what to believe. “Some of this (attitude) is earned, but much of it is based on misperception,” said Peter Adams, senior vice president of research and design for the Washington-based News Literacy Project. There are ways to turn things around, but it will take work. Many of Lily Ogburn’s classmates get their information from social media. Their parents didn’t watch or read news reports as they grew up, so they didn’t pick up the habit, said Ogburn, a senior at Northwestern University’s journalism school. Ogburn is the former editor-in-chief at the well-regarded Daily Northwestern student newspaper. The newspaper’s 2023 reports on alleged hazing and racism within the school’s football program led to the ouster of its coach. Still, she found some students don’t understand the newspaper’s role; they believe it exists to protect people in power rather than hold them accountable. She frequently had to explain what she did to classmates. “There’s a lot of mistrust toward journalists,” she said. But it has firmed her resolve to stick with the profession. “I want to be a journalist that people trust,” Ogburn said, “and I want to report news that makes people believe and trust in the media.” The news industry’s financial troubles over the past two decades have hollowed out newsrooms and left fewer journalists on duty. Along with not seeing much legitimate journalism, young people frequently don’t experience it through popular culture — unlike a previous generation, which learned in detail how Washington Post reporters Robert Woodward and Carl Bernstein exposed the Watergate scandal in the Academy Award-winning movie “All the President’s Men.” When the News Literacy Project asked, two-thirds of teens couldn’t think of anything when asked what movies or TV shows come to mind when they think about journalism. Those who had answers most frequently cited the “Spider-Man” franchise or the movie “Anchorman: The Legend of Ron Burgundy.” Neither portrayal was particularly flattering. Upon retiring as editor of Newsday, Howard Schneider helped develop the State University of New York system’s first School of Journalism. But instead of teaching future writers, editors or producers, he became drawn to teaching non-journalists about being news consumers. Now the executive director of SUNY Stony Brook’s Center for News Literacy, Schneider wasn’t surprised about any of the recent survey’s findings, either. “The negativity, the feeling that news is biased, is just a reflection of how their parents feel,” Schneider said. “The more exposed to news, legitimate news, the more their attitudes turn positive.” He has developed news literacy programs for school districts. “Students will say, ‘I get my news from YouTube,’” he said. “I say, ‘No, you don’t,’” and explains where the news originates and how to be discerning about what they see.)

— While I worked for IRS 1971-1980, I was a Revenue Officer. Sadly, IRS Revenue Agents look down on IRS Revenue Officers. IRS Revenue Agents conduct tax audits to determine the correct tax liability, while an IRS Revenue Officers take enforcement actions to collect delinquent tax debts. While there are differences between what IRS Revenue Agents do and what IRS Revenue Offices do, there are many similarities. Being a Revenue Agent requires more accounting education. To get promoted, both IRS Revenue Agents and Officers need more accounting education.

That is why I took and passed the CPA examination on my first attempt in 1979. That is why I earned a master’s degree in accounting in 1980. But my Democrat IRS superiors ignored/dismissed/belittled that. They would not have done that if I had been a Democrat, minority, female, younger, or veteran. To disallow my education deductions in 1978, my Democrat IRS superiors falsely argued that I did the aforesaid to become a Revenue Agent. The aforesaid motivated me to transfer to GAO in 1980. I should write about that. – Dave Diersen

TOWNHALL
— Confronting Anti-Ellis Island immigration
https://townhall.com/columnists/victordavishanson/2025/11/13/confronting-anti-ellis-island-immigration-n2666440
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Between 1892 and 1954, approximately 12 million immigrants arrived at the now-iconic Ellis Island to enter the U.S. — or nearly 200,000 legal entries per year. All were registered, documented, and given rudimentary health exams. They arrived as rich and poor, white and non-white, and, without exception, legally. With the gradual decline of such great influxes, Ellis Island finally ceased operating roughly 71 years ago. Yet Ellis Island’s successful tenure offers a sharp contrast to the failures of our recent open-border catastrophes. Americans will never know how many immigrants swarmed the southern border between 2021 and 2025, when former President Joe Biden and his impeached Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas destroyed federal immigration law as we once knew it. By design, they allowed between 10 and 12 million foreign nationals to make a mockery of federal immigration laws by swarming the southern border. Many crossers grew violent at any sign of even meek efforts by ICE officers to enforce the law. Border Patrol officers were often mocked, threatened, and assaulted by arriving illegal aliens. Officers were unsure as to what was worse: the occasional violence from illegal immigrants or retaliation from the Biden administration if they sought to enforce federal law and block illegal entrants. So the Biden administration pulled off the near impossible. In a mere four years, it had invited in almost as many illegal immigrants as had entered through Ellis Island legally over seven decades. But unlike past immigrants, we now witness organized violence against ICE officials. We see Orwellian scenes of mobs burning the American flag — the flag of the country they demand to stay in — while waving the flags of the countries they have no desire or intention of returning to. In sum, three generations ago, a smaller, poorer, but wiser America properly solved its immigration problem at Ellis Island — welcoming in immigrants orderly and legally with health and background screenings. In contrast, during the Biden years, we, in our arrogance and affluence, engaged in a great experiment — or rather misadventure. Never in our history has the U.S. been home to roughly 53 million foreign-born residents. Never have immigrants comprised nearly 16 percent of the population. Never has California had 27% of its residents not born in the U.S. Never have we allowed in up to 10,000 aliens a day, with little concern for whether they carried fentanyl, had criminal records, were sick, were unvaccinated, were traffickers, or belonged to violent gangs. Worse still, the Biden administration made zero effort to acculturate, integrate, and assimilate this massive influx. In fact, they did the very opposite of Ellis Island’s protocols, which fostered pro-American values, melting-pot integration, and respect for American history and culture. Once upon a time, new arrivals were all expected to become Americans — or why else had they come? Now, the moment an illegal alien has entered the U.S., he likely senses that his ethnicity or race will be essential to his identity. In the minds of the ruling DEI commissariat, claiming a tribal identity offers an easy pathway to generous housing, food, healthcare, legal, and educational entitlements. So, under Biden’s immigration non-policy, almost all illegal immigrants were immediately categorized as victims in the Marxist binary ledger that now divides America into the oppressed vs. the oppressors. If one devised a plan to damage America, he could not have done better than further dividing us by tribal chauvinism, overwhelming our fragile social services so essential to struggling Americans, and fueling the already dangerous neo-Confederate state and local nullifications of federal law and the growth of “sanctuary cities.” Daily, we witness performance-art mayors and governors boasting of how they “resist” federal law enforcement. These modern rebels pose as if they are our own era’s versions of mini-Confederate states. They now brag of states’ rights as they dare the federal government to protect its own property and enforce federal laws within their parochial jurisdictions. Why did Biden — or whoever was making policy in his place — destroy the border? What was his utterly mad intent? To alter the nation’s demography by importing future Democratic constituents dependent on state largesse? To bow to the demands of his DEI base? To mindlessly do the opposite of the prior Trump administration, which had closed the border and returned to legal-only immigration? Virtue signaling while waving illegal aliens across an open border is easy. But trying to close the border and return millions who entered unlawfully to their homelands is nearly impossible. It is surreal that those who claimed moral superiority while systemically destroying federal law now condemn as immoral those striving to restore it.)

DD: My critics/opponents ever-increasingly demonize, denigrate, and condemn the 72% health insurance subsidy a) that I got when I was federal employee 1966-1997, b) that my wife got when she was a federal employee 1968-1970, c) that I will always get as a federal retiree, and d) that my wife has gotten since we got married in 1978 and will always get. My critics/opponents either a) would never stoop to take a federal job and/or b) failed/refused to qualify themselves for federal jobs.

Like many on Wall Street, Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent used a limited partnership to avoid Medicare taxes. Unlike the others, he’s now overseeing the I.R.S. DD: Since 1972, my critics/opponents have been furious that I paid less federal income tax because I itemized.

I deducted tuition and books for graduate evening a) business courses at Loyola 1972-1976, b) accounting courses at DePaul 1976-1980, and c) finance courses at IIT 1992-1997.

The policies also undermined “national unity” and the traditional values of “hard work, excellence, and individual achievement,” according to the president.)

To advance, my Democrat coworkers in the federal government did not do what I did, that is, they did not earn job-related college degrees, professional certifications, or a professional license.

They helped their Democrat superiors get rid of their Republican subordinates who were conservative, White, male, older, non-veteran, Protestant, German American, and/or had ancestors who had been in America for a long time.

— Remembering Billy Graham’s Lasting Impact on His 107th Birthday
https://billygraham.org/decision-magazine/articles/remembering-billy-graham-s-lasting-impact-on-his-107th-birthday
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Billy was born on Nov. 7, 1918 to two dairy farmers residing near Charlotte, North Carolina. When he was 15, Billy accepted Christ as his Savior after he attended a series of revival meetings led by traveling evangelist Mordecai Fowler Ham. After high school, he attended Florida Bible Institute and later Wheaton College. During his time at Wheaton, he met Ruth McCue Bell, whom he married in 1943. Billy spent two years as a traveling preacher for the Christian outreach organization Youth for Christ. In 1947, he began holding his own Crusades, beginning with Grand Rapids, Michigan. In 1949, he preached in a Los Angeles Crusade that stretched for eight weeks, sparking nationwide attention. Some 350,000 people attended that event. In 1950, he founded the Billy Graham Evangelistic Association (BGEA), in Minneapolis, Minnesota. That year, the first Hour of Decision radio program aired, and the next year, the Hour of Decision television broadcast began airing. In 1960, BGEA published the first issue of Decision magazine—a publication envisioned by Billy as a beacon for both lay people and Christian leaders. Throughout his life, he preached in more than 185 countries and territories, which included nearly 215 million people. Between 1947 and 2005 more than 3.2 million people responded to the Gospel invitation at his Crusades, according to official Crusade statistics. He also stood as a pastoral figure to many U.S. presidents and was awarded the Presidential Medal of Freedom and the Congressional Gold Medal with Ruth.)

— FRONT PAGE TOP OF FOLD WITH NINE PHOTOS: Hegseth Is Purging Military Leaders With Little Explanation. DD: I worked for GAO in its Chicago office for almost 18 years. Every time the Democrats in DC who ran the agency assigned a new office manager, they gave that manager a list of employees to purge. Of course, I was on all those lists. The more of the following that employees were, the higher that they were on those lists: Republican, White, male, older, non-veteran, Protestant, German American, and/or had ancestors who had been in America for a long time. I never would have survived for almost 18 years if I had not a) earned an MBA when I was 27, b) passed the CPA examination on my first attempt when I was 30, c) earned a master’s degree in accounting when I was 31, d) passed the Certified Internal Auditor examination on my first attempt when I was 32, e) became a licensed CPA when I was 32, f) earned four more job-related professional certifications when I was 41, 45, 47, and 48, and g) earned a master’s degree in financial markets and trading when I was 48.

My Democrat veteran Firestone Store boss rudely fired me in 1971. My Democrat veteran IRS superiors disallowed my travel vouchers in 1974, disallowed my education expenses in 1978, and never promoted me beyond GS-12. My Democrat veteran GAO superiors forced me to take $23,472/year (21%) pay cut in today’s dollars to transfer from IRS, delayed my promotions and never promoted me beyond GS-13, etc. They used Affirmative Action to take the aforesaid adverse actions against me.

NEW YORK POST
— Why so many New Yorkers were swayed by the lies of socialism and Zohran Mamdani. DD: My critics/opponents have no problem with Mamdani if not promote him.
https://nypost.com/2025/11/06/opinion/why-so-many-new-yorkers-were-swayed-by-the-lies-of-socialism-and-zohran-mamdani/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: On Tuesday, New Yorkers — by a slight majority, but a majority nonetheless — endorsed Zohran Mamdani and the proud, unrepentant form of socialism he champions as the answer to, as least as he presents it, all of their woes. “We will prove that there is no problem too large for government to solve, and no concern too small for it to care about,” Mamdani declared during his victory speech, an inversion of Ronald Reagan’s famous truism. At least some of the Big Apple’s lurch to the far left is attributable to the 34-year-old’s undeniable political talent. But there are greater, or — to be blunt — more sinister forces at work. Most insidious of all are two intertwined lies: that Americans today have it worse than their forebearers and that their wealthy peers bear the blame for their plight. Campaigning is the art of hearing people, and Mamdani heard New Yorkers better than anyone. They and their countrymen remain alarmed by the cost of living across a wide variety of goods and services: from housing, to groceries, to child care to transportation. These are real concerns that no voter should be ashamed of expressing and every politician worth their salt ought to devote their time and energy to alleviating. These justifiable feelings have been unjustly compounded, though, by progressives’ relentless demoralization campaign. Want to buy a house? Not in this economy, they say. Need health care? Good luck. Are you hopeful your kids will enjoy a better life than you did? They won’t. Never mind whether any of that is true, these claims are meant to discourage Americans into handing more power over to the government — and it’s working. Moreover, the treatment Mamdani and his comrades propose will make New Yorkers’ real problems worse. Instead of telling his soon-to-be constituents that they are the masters of their own lives — and trying to cultivate the necessary conditions for them to improve their lot — the mayor-elect’s message to his followers is that they have somehow been gipped. His celebration of his ticket to Gracie Mansion on Tuesday included denunciations of “bad landlords” and “billionaires,” as well the assertion, “For as long as we can remember, the working people of New York have been told by the wealthy and the well-connected that power does not belong in their hands.” Blame games It is tempting to buy into the blame game that Mamdani has turned into such a potent weapon. To some, it comes as a great relief to believe that every errant degree they’ve pursued, every frivolous dollar they’ve spent, indeed, every mistake they’ve ever made can be chalked up to some successful person or entity pulling a fast one over them. And to hear that it is someone else’s job to get them back on track. But then again, this message — disguised as it is by flowery language, a remarkable faux generosity of spirit and seemingly optimistic utopianism — is actually astonishingly bleak. What Zohran Mamdani and his fellow travelers are telling people is that they live in a dystopia in which they lack the power to better themselves. That they’re being dragged down by anchors from which only the government can free them. And if they can’t do anything about their problems, why should they try? This accountability-free approach is alluring at first glance, but a shortfall of self-responsibility always leads to a surplus of self-loathing. Moreover, the socialist dream has been, paradoxically, kept alive by American politicians’ already pernicious spending habits. Contrary to Mamdani’s claims, the United States has hardly been practicing trickle-up austerity. As of this week, America owes its creditors over $38 trillion. Is it any wonder that voters — who have yet to suffer the worst consequences of the debt crisis — wonder why they shouldn’t receive free health care, child care, transportation and more for this substantial cost? Holding people back The charge is even more curious in New York, where the city and state enjoy ritual increases passed as a matter of course by its homogenous, left-wing leaders, who have saddled their constituents with countless taxes, regulations and union concessions — you know, the kind of malignant nuisances that actually hold people back. Mamdani wants to worsen the housing crisis with price controls; why not unshackle its builders instead? Rather than stripping gifted students of opportunities to excel, why not extend the offer to more? And if there are a dearth of well-paying jobs in the city, shouldn’t he be trying to attract, rather than antagonize, employers? The siren song of socialism always begins so beautifully. The extravagant promises, the dearth of trade-offs: It’s John Lennon’s “Imagine” come to life. But Americans had best plug their ears and look past the fog to the rocky shores ahead. Because they, not the bogeymen of Mamdani’s campaign, are at the helm.)

AMERICAN THINKER
— How Mamdani Won New York DD: My critics/opponents have no problem with Mamdani if not promote him.
https://www.americanthinker.com/articles/2025/11/how_mamdani_won_new_york.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Why the hell did Americans choose a communist like Mamdani in the first place to put him up in an election that was a sure-fire Democrat win? The answer comes in two parts, beginning with the rise of equity in America. Equity is a sleek euphemism that’s gained cultural rizz for Progressive Americans who believe the future lies in a virulent form of social Marxism that’s cloaked in woke cultural rizz of transgender rights, social justice, equality, fairness, tolerance, critical race theory, DEI, anti-racism, white supremacy, and systemic inequality. It’s an expansion of Marxist theory, transformed by critical theory and postmodern philosophy, which connects with the emotions of those who suffer the harsh realities of inner-city poverty and violence perpetrated by generations of Leftist policy. Rather than take responsibility for the urban decay that undeniably spews from their liberalism, Democrats turned to equity’s neo-Marxist message, declaring that the suffrage in New York was the result genocidal oppression of America’s Western, Judeo-Christian, capitalist ideals (enforced by the fascist Trump administration) that created the endless inequalities of wealth, education, race, crime, incarceration, gender, sexual preference, patriarchy, and white supremacy that were systemically devouring inner-city New Yorkers. Equity was the only solution to end inequalities, because it would ensure comprehensive equal outcomes for all by imposing economic justice, tolerance, gender freedom, absolute sexual liberation, and anti-racism; it’s the last great hope of liberating humanity. Mamdani claimed his vision could deliver New York, which resonated with those who suffered from inner-city decay and despair. Equity has captured the minds of New Yorkers because it offers a new moral vision of “hope” and unlimited freedom, as a nation facing an existential crisis leaves Christianity in record numbers. People who need a new secular religion to replace Christianity were drawn to equity’s promise to bring justice and deliverance of a progressive and permissive post-Christian society. Everyone who suffered the oppression of poverty, hunger, incarceration, white supremacy, homophobia, and transphobia would thrive in racial and economic equality. They would be equally free to choose the lifestyle they want and the pleasure they deserve, all without condemnation. And the rich are finally going to surrender their wealth to pay for it all. The Left, and many in America, are buying in. It boggles the mind that this genocidal narrative that’s failed all through history has become truth in the uncritical mind. But the Left has abandoned reason for the post-truth world of emotions, a second critical point that led to Mamdani’s win. We live in a post-truth world where feelings and emotions determine reality, and facts and reason no longer matter. Today, the feelings, preferences, and desires that confirm our pre-existing narratives and cognitive biases define our individual “truths.” It’s the consequence of the postmodern movement’s quiet destruction of reason and rational thought, which has successfully undermined our confidence that truth exists and that facts, data, logic, and common sense accurately describe the world. Philosophers argued that rationalism could not intrinsically justify its claim that facts were derived from objective reality. There was no objective truth; facts were simply beliefs and opinions in a world of moral relativism. Postmodernism’s successful destruction of truth left humanity in a bind. People needed another way to interpret the world once they left rationalism behind. Emotivism, which argued that preferences, attitudes, or feelings determined all our value judgments, replaced truth and reason as post-truth became the choice of a nation determined to bask in the glow of its emotions. Today, the death of facts has liberated the world from the inconvenience of verification or falsification; “truth” is whatever aligns with feelings, emotions, and preferences. Ben Shapiro’s “Facts don’t care about your feelings” is a reaction to post-truth’s devastating effect on the nation. What happens when you offer equity as liberation to a vast number of people who have little hope of escaping the suffering and rely on their emotions to confirm predetermined anti-Western narratives? They accept it as reality without critical evaluation because a post-truth world doesn’t rely on the facts of failed Leftist policies. Feelings convince them that their suffering is caused by the racism, greed, and religious bigotry imposed under decades of Republican fascism. It is a perfect storm to resonate within the hearts of those who suffer generations of poverty, violence, and the loss of hope. This is how Mamdani won: his rise in New York followed the same path that brought Lenin, Stalin, Mao, and Pol Pot to power. They promised to rescue the suffering masses, yet the masses didn’t understand political theory or have the capacity to comprehend what Marxism meant for their future. Critical thinking wasn’t part of the equation; they wanted an end to their pain and suffering imposed by the heavy hands of the Tsars and the oligarchs of their day. They trusted anyone who offered deliverance from oppression and the promise of unlimited freedom and prosperity. One can hardly blame them, yet they suffered beyond imagination for generations. Over 100 million died and nearly all experienced starvation, torture, imprisonment, and, most importantly of all, the near-total loss of their freedom. We must come to terms with the implications of Mamdani’s victory. It would be easy to rationalize it as New York’s momentary loss of sanity, telling ourselves that the communist new dark age that tormented the USSR, China, and Cambodia could never happen here. But, as Mamdani’s win shows us, anything is possible in a post-truth world of pain and suffering. Even here in America.)
— The oath must come first; The American Experiment: Assimilation, Not Exception; The Oath Is Not Optional; The Danger of Disingenuous Leadership; A Call for Civic Renewal
https://www.americanthinker.com/blog/2025/11/the_oath_must_come_first.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: I recently listened to a speech by Zohran Mamdani, the newly elected mayor of New York City. In it, he unapologetically proclaimed, “I am Muslim, and I refuse to apologize for it.” He also declared that he would serve all New Yorkers. But the question must be asked: Will he serve as an American, bound by the U.S. Constitution and the principles of liberty, individualism, and civic duty? Or will he serve as a Muslim first, potentially guided more by cultural or ideological convictions than by the constitutional framework he swore to uphold?
This is not a question of religious prejudice; it is a question of civic integrity. The American experiment is built on the premise that public office is not a platform for cultural pride or ideological expression. It is a sacred trust rooted in allegiance to the Constitution. When one assumes public office in the United States, he swears an oath to uphold that document. That oath is not symbolic. It is binding. It demands that personal ideologies, religious convictions, and cultural traditions be subordinated to the rule of law and the principles of liberty, individualism, and constitutional fidelity.)

(FROM THGE ARTICLE: Mamdani, the 34-year-old democratic socialist, captured 78% of voters under 30 and 66% of those voters 30 to 44 in Tuesday’s election, according to ABC News exit polls, conducted by SSRS. Among voters 45 to 64, former Gov. Andrew Cuomo edged out Mamdani, 53% to 47%. A majority of voters 65 and older (55%) voted for Cuomo while 36% voted for Mamdani. Additionally, newcomers to the city were some of the most likely voters in the state to vote for Mamdani, with 81% of those who have lived in New York City less than 10 years supporting him, the exit polls found. Along with his electoral success among younger and newer New Yorkers, Mamdani also earned support from 55% of voters who lived in the city for over 10 years, but were not born in the city. More of those who were born in New York City voted for Cuomo (49%) than Mamdani (38%), according to the exit polls. More first-time New York City mayoral voters also voted for Mamdani than those who have previously voted for mayor in the city, 66% versus 47%, the exit polls found. Greer said this accomplishment in gathering the majority of the youth’s vote was through Mamdani’s engagement in social media, along with the campaign’s clear message about working as a community.)

To defeat Republicans, those who are the following are ever-increasingly joining together: younger, non-conservative, non-White, non-male, non-heterosexual, non-married, non-rich, non-Christian, non-German American, have ancestors who have not been in America for a long time, non-citizen, etc. Consequently, the future is ever-increasingly bleak for Republicans who are older, conservative, White, male, heterosexual, married, non-poor, Christian, German American, have ancestors who have been in America for a long time, citizens of America, etc.
What do your critics/opponents want? My critics/opponents want ever-increasing more a) preference for those who share their demographics, b) cheap labor, c) socialism and then communism, d) destruction of traditional marriage and family, that is, LGBTQ, e) abortion, f) mass/illegal immigration, g) booze, gambling, pot, and other vices, h) abolition if the Second Amendment, and i) Affirmative Action and more DEI, that is, patronage, political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, age discrimination, religious discrimination, and national origin discrimination.
Democrats ever-increasingly run Illinois. If you are Republican and if you are not leaving Illinois, you should ever-increasingly take steps to defend yourself against Democrats. Democrats will ever-increasingly do everything that they can to drive you out of Illinois. They will ever-increasingly take away your voice in government, your income, your assets, and your safety.
For Democrats, politics and government exist to take everything away from Republicans and to give everything to Democrats. My Democrat superiors in the federal government took my career away from me and gave it to my Democrat coworkers. When I was 49 years old in 1997, my Democrat GAO superiors forced me to retire. They took my job away from me and gave it to my Black Democrat subordinate. He had less work experience than I had. He had less education than I had. He had one professional certification while I has six. He had no professional license like the one I had.

— New Pentagon Press Crew Is All In on Trump. The Defense Department’s new press policy led to an exodus of traditional journalists. Supporters of the president have stepped in. DD: According to my critics/opponents, I am not a reporter or a journalist a) because I do not claim to be non-partisan, b) because none of my four college degrees, six professional certifications, and professional license are in journalism, and c) because I am not paid for what I do. In my defense, I stress that I worked for GAO as an Analyst for almost 18 years, the last 11 years of which at the GS-13 Step 1-10 Levels, currently $117,807-$153,151/year and that what GAO Analysts do is very similar to what reports and journalists do.
https://www.nytimes.com/2025/11/04/business/media/new-pentagon-press-crew-is-all-in-on-trump.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: When Mike Lindell, the chief executive of MyPillow and the founder of the upstart digital news site LindellTV, recently heard about the chance to secure a Pentagon press credential, he immediately applied for four. The outlet, which strongly supports the Trump administration and is known for promoting election conspiracy theories, already had accredited journalists stationed at the White House and in Congress. The Pentagon would be a perfect capstone, he thought. “We’re going to make them proud,” he said about the administration in an interview. It has been nearly three weeks since dozens of legacy outlets — including The New York Times, The Washington Post and the three major broadcast news networks — Fox News and Newsmax surrendered press passes that gave their journalists access to the Pentagon. They did so after declining to sign on to new rules that, according to many media lawyers, curbed their First Amendment rights to report on the military. Many of those outlets have continued aggressive coverage of the military from outside the Pentagon since then. In their place, a fresh crop of news media has stepped forward to occupy the Pentagon’s tightly circumscribed press areas, ones with a strikingly different philosophy when it comes to traditional journalistic notions about the fourth estate and holding truth to power. The Pentagon said it would not release a list of the outlets in the changing press corps, but The Times was able to identify a dozen of them. They range from widely popular right-wing podcasts to niche publications largely focused on issues like abortion, but are similar in their unwavering support for the Trump administration and the firm belief that ruffling government feathers is decidedly not part of the job description. “We’re there for the big-ticket narrative stuff,” Raheem Kassam, editor in chief of the National Pulse, a part of the new Pentagon press detachment, wrote in a text message. He called his publication “basically an industry mag/site for MAGA world.” Initially, the National Pulse’s eyes and ears in the Pentagon will be Will Upton, who worked in the Treasury Department during the first Trump administration and has been a frequent and vocal critic of traditional journalists, whom he has characterized as partisan actors. Laura Loomer, the influential pro-Trump activist, said in a post on X late on Monday that she would be joining the Pentagon press corps, writing that she looks forward to “breaking more stories that impact our country and our national security.” News of her accreditation was reported earlier by The Washington Post. Other new arrivals include LifeSite News, a Catholic advocacy publication, whose Pentagon reporter is a former aide to Representative Paul Gosar, an Arizona Republican, and has been accused of making antisemitic and misogynistic remarks; RedState, owned by the Christian radio giant Salem Media, whose reporter was the communications director for James O’Keefe, the right-wing hidden camera journalist who founded Project Veritas; and Gateway Pundit, a site that often has spread conspiracy theories, which will have two military correspondents, including one who is perhaps best known for her work pushing for pardons for participants in the Capitol riot on Jan. 6, 2021. David Schulz, director of Yale Law School’s Media Freedom and Information Access Clinic, who serves as legal counsel for the Pentagon Press Association, said that the new rules amounted to an effort to limit what journalists could report and that the new outlets had pro-Trump leanings in common. “These new regulations are really not about national security,” Mr. Schulz said. “They’re about controlling viewpoint and content.” In a statement, Sean Parnell, the chief Defense Department spokesman, said the traditional news outlets had misrepresented the policy. “The so-called ‘journalists’ staged a self-deportation and filmed their theatrics,” he said. “We are proud to see the new wave of highly motivated journalists, who value truth, occupy the Correspondents Corridor.” Mr. Parnell had previously said in a social media post that the newcomers amounted to more than 60 journalists, roughly equivalent to the number of traditional reporters who handed in their badges on Oct. 15. A handful of outlets that had been in the Pentagon press corps previously, including The Epoch Times and One America News Network, agreed to sign the policy and have remained there. Mr. Parnell’s post prompted announcements from outlets that said they would be getting credentials, among them Human Events and the Post Millennial, sister sites that share a single owner and frequent contributions from Jack Posobiec, the well-known podcaster and Navy veteran who has a close relationship with numerous Trump administration officials, including Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth. “We repealed and replaced the press pool,” Mr. Posobiec said in a recent interview on Real America’s Voice, which itself said on X that it would be getting a Pentagon credential. Libby Emmons, editor in chief of Human Events and the Post Millennial, said she had requested four passes for her staff and signed the new Pentagon press policy. “There should be a place for reporting on what they are doing without always trying to expose the dark underbelly,” Ms. Emmons said. “And that’s part of why I said sure, I’ll sign your thing and come check it out.” Major Washington outposts — Congress, the White House, the State Department and the Pentagon — have long had their own press corps: packs of print reporters, television correspondents and their camera crews, who hover in the hallways and tag along with officials as they travel. President Trump and his appointees have often criticized the journalists who follow them on a daily basis, but until now, the administration has never gone so far as to effectively remake an entire press corps. “I’ve never seen anything like that, and it doesn’t seem to resemble anything from a team that respects an actual independent press corps,” said Eric Schultz, who served as a press aide under President Barack Obama. Ms. Emmons said she had received an unsolicited invitation to apply for credentials after the legacy journalists refused to sign the new rules. “We value what the press does every single day, but unfortunately we have seen a lot of the mainstream media continue to lie,” Kingsley Wilson, Defense Department spokeswoman, said in an interview that same day with Frontlines, a media arm of Turning Point USA. That outlet subsequently announced that it, too, would be joining the new Pentagon media crew. Several of those joining the new press corps live nowhere near the nation’s capital, even though the department’s published policies say credentialed correspondents should be at the Pentagon, just outside Washington, “at least three times a month.” Tim Pool, the beanie-wearing right-wing podcaster, said on X that he did “not intend to maintain a significant presence in the Pentagon” after disclosing that his outlet, Timcast Media, was also getting a credential. Last year, a federal investigation revealed that Mr. Pool was paid to produce videos for a company that was secretly funded by the Russian government. Mr. Pool, who was not charged, has claimed he was unaware of where the payments, which amounted to $100,000 per video, came from. Under the new policy, journalists could get in trouble — and even lose access permanently — for soliciting government employees to “violate the law by providing confidential government information.” Securing confidential information is the bread and butter of accountability reporting and has produced some of the most important journalism of the past century. There are few signs, however, that the reconstituted Pentagon press corps has aspirations to test the limits of those rules. Mr. Pool, on his podcast, said, “We are not an investigative news organization.” He added: “We do not have journalists meeting with sources in parking garages while they kick over a manila folder with secret documents. We don’t do any of that.” Mr. Lindell, for his part, said he would “follow the rules to the T,” echoing the contention by Pentagon officials that leaks — even of nonclassified information — are a threat to national security. “We would never do anything like the mainstream media does to jeopardize our country,” he added.)

NEWSWEEK
— ICE Agents Rappel From Black Hawk Helicopters Into Chicago for Major Raid
https://www.newsweek.com/ice-rappel-black-hawk-helicopters-chicago-10809228
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Federal agents rappelled from a Black Hawk helicopter onto the rooftops of Chicago residential buildings, launching a sweeping immigration enforcement operation targeting suspected Tren de Aragua gang members, according to NewsNation. The operation, led by ICE with support from the FBI and U.S. Border Patrol, was designed to apprehend high-priority targets connected to the Venezuelan crime syndicate that U.S. authorities have accused of trafficking, violence, and other cross-border crimes. President Donald Trump signed an executive order in January designating Mexican drug cartels and other Latin American criminal groups like the Venezuelan gang Tren de Aragua as terrorist organizations. His administration is ramping up immigration enforcement operations in Chicago after he threatened to deploy the National Guard to quell crime in the city. Nearly 300 federal agents and officers descended upon a five-story apartment complex in Chicago’s South Shore neighborhood, where U.S. Border Patrol commander-at-large Gregory Bovino has claimed members of Tren de Aragua have been operating, according to NewsNation. The outlet reported that roughly 30 undocumented immigrants were taken into custody, several of them suspected of gang affiliation. Bovino told NewsNation that the operation proceeded “very smoothly” after federal officers and agents spent several days training for the targeted enforcement effort. Bovino, who is overseeing the ongoing operation in Chicago, added that residents of the South Side should expect an increased federal presence in the area.)

When I was 22 years old in 1971, Oldsmobile withdrew a job offer that I had accepted saying that it had just agreed to stop hiring Whites to settle an EEOC complaint. Because my Firestone Store boss fired me because I had accepted that offer and because I was helping support my mother and brother, I accepted a job offer from IRS.

To intimidate me, my Democrat Post Office superiors forced me to resign and disallowed my sick leave requests. Of course, my critics/opponents have no problem with the aforesaid.

— Megyn Kelly Goes Viral for Tense Argument with College Student About Trump and Charlie Kirk’s Death. “Trump has every right to loathe his enemies,” Kelly said when a Virginia Tech student accused the president of heightening political tensions. I should write about my critics/opponents who have had their operatives and their dupes take the most/biggest adverse actions against me lately. I would focus on those on those who ended my membership on the Illinois Republican Party State Convention Platform and Resolutions Committee and ended my service as the Republican fundraiser for Wheaton Independence Day parades and fireworks.
