FROM ILLINOIS CENTER-LEFT LEANING SOURCES

ABC7
— Democrats say “Republican leaders talk mail-in voting push, gaining suburban votes at Illinois State Fair.” Political parties exist to help elect candidates who can and will defend and advance their platform. The Republican Party platform is conservative. Republican candidates and party leaders should stress the Republican Party platform including its law enforcement, individual responsibility, traditional marriage and family, right to life, immigration, illegal drugs, Second Amendment, and equal opportunity (no race or gender based preference giving) planks. They should stress the tremendous damage caused by the Democrat, Libertarian, and Green party platforms including crime, poverty, dependency on government and charity, destruction of traditional marriage and family, abortion, illegal immigration, booze, gambling, pot, and other vices, diminishment of Second Amendment rights, patronage, political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, and age discrimination. They should stress that while Trump was President, he did more to defend and advance the Republican Party platform than either Bush.

ST. LOUIS PUBLIC RADIO
— Democrats and RINOs say “Illinois GOP hopes for unity — not Trump — during State Fair Republican Day.” Why didn’t all the Republican presidential candidates converge on Springfield yesterday? Illinois will sent 64 of the 2,467 delegates to the 2024 Republican National Convention on a winner take-all basis. 1,234 votes are needed to win. 64 is 5% (1 in 20) of 1,234. Are the no-shows because polling shows that Trump is going to win those 64 delegates no matter what happens?

CHICAGO SUN-TIMES
— Democrats say “State GOP mostly steers clear of Trump, vows to rebuild after big losses. Illinois Republicans on Thursday vowed they are rebuilding and trying to gear up support in the suburbs ahead of next year’s elections — and most are steering clear of delving into the effects of former President Donald Trump’s fourth criminal indictment.” Trump? Who’s he? GOP focuses on rebuilding at State Fair — not party’s indicted presidential frontrunner. Most Illinois Republicans didn’t mention the party’s indicted presidential frontrunner by name. “Why is it always about Donald Trump?” Illinois House Republican Leader Tony McCombie asked reporters. “Here we are in Illinois. Let’s talk about Illinois.”

JOHN KASS
— Democrats Kick Loyal Black Voters to Back of the Bus on Immigration, School Overcrowding and Crime (COMMENT: Democrats certainly did not kick my Black subordinate to the back of the bus. My Democrat GAO superiors forced me to take their early retirement offer in 1997 when I was 49 years old so that they could give him my job and my preferred corner office, and that is exactly what they did. They would not have done that if I had was a Democrat, minority, female, younger, or veteran. They would not have done that if I had not complained about their political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, and age discrimination. They would not have done that if I had not been an active member since 1988 in a class action lawsuit that charged them with reverse discrimination, age discrimination, and retaliation.)

— The problem with crossing that line. – Silvio Canto, Jr.
https://www.americanthinker.com/blog/2023/08/the_problem_with_crossing_that_line.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Back in the last week of the Clinton presidency, there were concerns about the legal status of President Clinton once he left Washington. Could he have been indicted by, say Arkansas, for lying in a courtroom? In the end the issue was resolved and Clinton admitted wrongdoing, paid a fine and lost his law license. Maybe you remember the headline: In a Deal, Clinton Avoids Indictment. Today, the Democrats have thrown the DoJ and now a Georgia DA at President Trump. Could this be a case of “be careful what you wish for”?)

EPOCH TIMES
— Biden Admin Working to Bring Racial Equity to Towns, Suburbs. HUD says local communities must take action to ‘affirmatively further’ diversity. – Kevin Stocklin (COMMENT: Politics is nasty/vicious. Democrats ever-increasingly hint/imply/argue/shout that the higher the percentage of Whites who are in your state, county, township, municipality, and/or school district, the higher the percentage of Republicans are there who are White supremacists, Nazis, KKK members, haters, racists, sexists, bigots, and even worse things who should be gotten rid of once and for all. Since 1978, my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes in DuPage County, Milton Township, and Wheaton have stressed that while I lived in Crete 1948-1972, a) no Blacks lived there, b) it was overwhelmingly Protestant, and c) it was overwhelmingly German American. I should write a book about my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes. Better yet, I should sue them.)
https://www.theepochtimes.com/mkt_app/us/analysis-biden-admin-working-to-bring-racial-equity-to-towns-suburbs-5471333
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Actions by the Biden administration to expand racial equity are making their way into America’s suburbs and towns. The Department of Housing and Development (HUD) is implementing a new program that would compel any town, city, or county that accepts federal housing grants to “proactively take meaningful actions to overcome patterns of segregation, promote fair housing choice, eliminate disparities in opportunities, and foster inclusive communities free from discrimination.” The program, called Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing (AFFH), is a reinstatement of HUD’s 2015 AFFH Rule, originally introduced by the Obama administration but repealed in 2020 by the Trump administration, which criticized the policy’s “onerous burden on localities and federal overreach into local housing policy.” Under the Biden policy, “in order to qualify for community development block grant funds, [communities] have to prepare and submit a plan to demonstrate that they are ‘affirmatively furthering fair housing,’” Howard Husock, senior fellow at the American Enterprise Institute and author of “The Poor Side of Town,” a critique of American housing policies, told The Epoch Times. “They will have to pass muster with regulators at HUD, who will review the steps they’re taking and decide whether they measure up.” Among the things that HUD will look for, Mr. Husock said, is if low-income housing “is being built in ‘high-opportunity neighborhoods’; is it being built close to high-performing schools; is close to libraries or supermarkets; with public facilities being located in ways that best serve those of a low income.” According to a statement by HUD Secretary Marcia Fudge, “Hardworking families are blocked from purchasing homes because of the color of their skin.”)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: As the battle over assault weapons in Illinois heats up, gun supporters are coming to the aid of a west suburban firearms dealer. A rally and fundraiser was held Sunday at Law Weapons in Naperville. The owner says he’s lost 85% of his business since both the state and Naperville banned the sale of assault weapons. Robert Bevis says he’s had to lay off employees and max out his credit cards to keep his store open. Bevis is suing Naperville and the state, saying the assault weapon ban is unconstitutional. “They’re infringing upon our Second Amendment rights. They’re causing due harm to every citizen that has the right to own a firearm in this state. And they’re costing people’s lives by not allowing them to get the firearms they’d like to,” Bevis said. On Friday, the Illinois Supreme Court upheld the state’s assault weapons ban. Bevis is appealing to the U.S. Supreme Court to step in and issue an injunction lifting the ban on assault weapon sales.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: After a bloody clash over the Christopher Columbus statue in Chicago’s Grant Park, then-Mayor Lori Lightfoot tasked a special commission with reviewing the city’s public monuments in what she said was “a racial healing and historical reckoning project.” . . . Public monuments have been a subject of spirited debate across the country for years, including in Chicago. Amid a national discussion about race in America in 2020, Columbus came under renewed scrutiny as statues across the U.S. were pulled down and local governments stopped celebrating the holiday in his name. Though Chicago was one of the cities where the monuments were lifted, Lightfoot at first resisted their removal and insisted afterward that the Grant Park statue should eventually return.)

In my defense, I stress that neither of my parents attended college, that my father was only the first of my ancestors to earn a high school diploma, that he almost always worked second jobs to pay the family’s bills, that he died suddenly when he was 47 and I was 21, that my mother never attended high school, and that I had to work my way through college.)

CHICAGO SUN-TIMES
— Democrats acknowledge that “Many more Chicago-area homes have a higher risk of flooding than people realize.” I should write a book about the many thousands of hours and the many thousands of dollars since 1984 that I have had to spend to prevent storm water damage to my Wheaton home. It was built in a “watershed area” and a former septic field. Wheaton has never forgiven me for suing it for approving a grossly inadequate storm water drainage plan for the development that my home was built in. In fact, Wheaton has taken many big adverse actions against me because I sued it. I should have gotten a permanent restraining order against Wheaton.

WEDNESDAY JOURNAL
— GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters fill a tremendous void in Illinois. They bring attention to news and commentary that promote the a) individual responsibility, b) traditional marriage and family, c) right to life, d) immigration, e) illegal drugs, f) Second Amendment, and g) equal opportunity (no race or gender based preference giving) planks in the Republican Party platform. The newsletters discourage Democrat, Libertarian, and Green party promotion of a) dependency on government and charity, b) LGBTQ, c) abortion, d) mass/illegal immigration, e) booze, gambling, pot, and other vices, f) diminishment of Second Amendment rights, and g) Affirmative Action, Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion, that is, patronage, political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, and age discrimination. If the Illinois Republican Party, Republican county party organizations, Republican township and ward party organizations, Republican elected officials, conservative leaders and activists, and religious leaders and activists did what they should be doing, there would be no need for GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters and Republicans would be the majority in Illinois, in DuPage County, in Milton Township, and in Wheaton.

https://www.dailysignal.com/2023/08/04/white-house-purges-442-reporters-using-new-press-credential-rules/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Over the past three months, the number of reporters with access to the White House dropped by 31%. There are now 442 fewer reporters with a coveted “hard pass”—the result of new rules announced in May that took effect Tuesday. The Daily Signal’s Fred Lucas was among the reporters slated to lose his White House press credentials, although he was given a 10-day extension “to submit the required materials.” The White House now requires reporters to obtain press credentials from Congress or the Supreme Court to fulfill its new requirement; Lucas is currently awaiting a decision on his applications to the other branches. Politico’s West Wing Playbook first reported the numbers Wednesday along with news that Simon Ateba, the White House correspondent for Today News Africa, lost his hard pass. Ateba, along with the other 441 reporters who no longer have credentials, won’t be able to attend White House press briefings or access the sprawling Pennsylvania Avenue campus unless they obtain what’s called a temporary day pass. The White House announced new rules in May to limit the number of journalists who are eligible for a White House hard pass. Reporters are still allowed to apply for a day pass, but they must do so daily and undergo Secret Service review. Up until this week, the White House didn’t disclose the number of reporters who had a hard pass. Politico reported, “Within the past three months, the number of hard pass holders dropped from 1,417 to 975, with those approved reflecting a mix of renewals and new applications.” . . . The six rules outlined in the May memo require reporters to be employed full time at an organization that disseminates news, live in the Washington, D.C., area, regularly access and cover the White House, and submit to a Secret Service investigation. They also now require pass holders to first obtain “accreditation by a press gallery in either the U.S. Senate, U.S. House of Representatives, or Supreme Court.” (See the full email from the White House Press Office at the end of this story.) The memo also gives President Joe Biden’s press team greater power to expel journalists who don’t “act in a professional manner.” Ateba regularly sparred with White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre, leading to stories in The New York Times, The Washington Post, and an appearance on the now-canceled “Tucker Carlson Tonight.” Last month, the White House Press Office sent Ateba a warning that he risked expulsion if he continued to interrupt briefings in violation of the new rules.)

NATIONAL REVIEW
— Inside a DEI Training Led by Consultants Who Humiliated School Principal before His Suicide – ARI BLAFF (COMMENT: Democrats run the federal government. They require all federal employees to take lots of Affirmative Action (AA) and DEI training. I should write a book about all the AA and DEI training a) that my Democrat IRS superiors required me to take 1971-1980 and b) that my Democrat GAO superiors required me to take 1980-1997. I would focus on how my Democrat superiors used that training to promote hatred against their Republican employees who were conservative, White, male, older, non-veteran, non-poor, Protestant, German American, and/or those whose ancestor had been in America for a long time.)

TOWNHALL
— Sanctuary State Declares ‘Emergency’ Over Influx of Illegals. The governor of Massachusetts, Maura Healey, is now declaring a state of emergency over surge of illegal immigrants into the state. There’s a whole lot of hypocrisy that’s being pointed out by conservatives, considering the governor’s support of her state’s sanctuary status for illegal immigrants.

— Democrats say “Mike Pence Mocked Over Gas Station Video: No Clue How to Pump.” (COMMENT: Just kidding, but the Pense campaign should hired me as a consultant for this. I pumped gasoline for John’s Sinclair in Chicago Heights during the summer of 1966 and then for the Firestone Store in Chicago Heights 1970-1972.)

NATIONAL JURIST
— Best job market since 1987 for law grads (COMMENT: In 1971, when I was 22 years old, my Democrat IRS superiors hired me as a GS-7 (currently $52,002/year) Revenue Officer. The employee manual that they gave me encouraged Revenue Officers to take graduate business, accounting, and/or law courses. In 1972, I started taking graduate evening business courses at Loyola, and in 1976 I earned an MBA. In 1976, I started taking graduate evening accounting courses at DePaul, and in 1980 I earned a master’s degree. In 1979, I took and passed the CPA examination on my first attempt. Virtually none of my coworkers did anything close to that. All my coworkers who my Democrat superiors promoted over me were Democrats a) who had less job-related work experience than I had, b) had less job-related education than I had, and/or c) had no professional certification.)

WASHINGTON POST
— GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters fill a tremendous void in Illinois. They bring attention to news and commentary that promote the a) individual responsibility, b) traditional marriage and family, c) right to life, d) immigration, e) illegal drugs, f) Second Amendment, and g) equal opportunity (no race or gender based preference giving) planks in the Republican Party platform. The newsletters discourage Democrat, Libertarian, and Green party promotion of a) dependency on government and charity, b) LGBTQ, c) abortion, d) mass/illegal immigration, e) booze, gambling, pot, and other vices, f) diminishment of Second Amendment rights, and g) Affirmative Action, Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion, that is, patronage, political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, and age discrimination. If the Illinois Republican Party, Republican county party organizations, Republican township and ward party organizations, Republican elected officials, conservative leaders and activists, and religious leaders and activists did what they should be doing, there would be no need for GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters and Republicans would be the majority in Illinois, in DuPage County, in Milton Township, and in Wheaton.

— When candidates on ballots in your precinct lose elections, who do they blame? I should write a book about candidates on ballots in my precinct since 2000 who have blamed me the most for their losses. I would focus on those candidates who have blamed what I have done as the GOPUSA Illinois Editor since 2000. I would focus on those candidates who blamed what I did as a) the Republican fundraiser for Wheaton Independence Day parades and fireworks 2005-2019, b) the chairman of TAPROOT Republicans of Illinois 2005-2012, and c) a member of the Illinois Center Right Coalition (ICRC) Steering Committee 2003-2007. I would focus on those candidates who have taken the most/biggest adverse actions against me including ending my service as a) the Republican fundraiser for Wheaton Independence Day parades and fireworks, b) the chairman of TAPROOT, and c) a member of the ICRC Steering Committee.

The more of the aforesaid that a recruit is, the more that recruit would be given unfair job assignments, unfair performance expectations, and unfair performance appraisals and the more that “up-or-out” would be used to get rid of that recruit. The Democrats who run the federal government want all federal employees to be “good little Democrats.”

This bill would allow enlistment of: DACA recipients; People who have Temporary Protected Status (TPS); and People who have an approved petition for an immigrant visa, subject to visa caps.)

It is called a) up-or-out, b) political affiliation discrimination, c) reverse discrimination, d) age discrimination, e) religious discrimination, and f) national origin discrimination. All my coworkers who my Democrat IRS superiors promoted over me were Democrats who were minority, female, veteran, non-Protestant, and/or non-German American and/or a) had less job-related work experience than I had, b) had less job-related education than I had, and/or c) had no professional certifications. I earned an MBA from Loyola in 1976. I passed the CPA examination on my first attempt in 1979. I earned a master’s degree in accounting from DePaul in 1980.)

But I acknowledge that might very well have not saved me because many of my Republican U.S. Senators and my Republican U.S. Representatives a) rejected the equal opportunity (no race or gender based preference giving) plank in the Republican Party platform, b) promoted patronage, political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, and/or age discrimination, c) were anti-draft avoiders, d) were anti-Protestant, e) anti-German American, f) were anti-conservative if not anti-Republican, and/or g) were anti-those who did not give them lots of money. I lived in Crete 1948-1972, University Park 1972-1976, Chicago 1976-1978, and Wheaton since 1978.)

In my defense, I stress that a) I had earned a master’s degree in financial markets and trading from IIT and I had become a Forensic Accountant that year, b) I had become a Certified Financial Service Auditor in 1996, c) I had become a Certified Government Financial Manager in 1994, d) I had become a Certified Fraud Examiner in 1990, e) I had passed the Certified Internal Auditor examination on my first attempt and I had become a licensed CPA in 1981, f) I had earned a master’s degree in accounting from DePaul in 1980, g) I had passed the CPA examination on my first attempt in 1979, and h) I had earned an MBA from Loyola in 1976. Because my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes had to acknowledge the aforesaid, they have ever-increasingly hinted/implied/argued/shouted that the real reason why I was forced into early retirement was that I am a White supremacist, Nazi, KKK member, hater, racist, sexist, bigot, and even worse things. This all came out when my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes unsuccessfully tried to get the Illinois Center Right Coalition to censure me for my GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters during its 2006 Annual Convention in the Wheaton Bowl Banquet Hall. I should write a book about my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes. Better yet, I should sue them.)

WALL STREET JOURNAL
— Affirmative Action Bred Hypocrisy and Victimhood. The Supreme Court’s decision gives conservatives an opportunity to reaffirm their commitment to merit. – Bobby Jindal (COMMENT: My critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes have always rejected the equal opportunity (no race or gender based preference giving) plank in the Republican Party platform, that is, they have always promoted Affirmative Action (AA), Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI). I should write books about them. I would focus on those who have hinted/implied/argued/shouted the most that I should pay the price of AA and DEI big time because my parents were filthy rich and because I have benefitting tremendously from discrimination against minorities, females, younger people, LGBTQers, veterans, non-Christians, non-Protestants, non-German Americans, those whose ancestors have not been in America for a long time, citizens of foreign countries, boozers, gamblers, stoners, criminals, those who have less money than I had/have, etc. I would focus on those who have taken the most/biggest adverse actions against me. I would focus on my Democrat superiors in the federal government and a) RINO leaders of the Milton Township Republican Organization, DuPage County Republican Central Committee, and Illinois Republican Party, b) RINO leaders of Wheaton, Wheaton Park District, Wheaton Chamber of Commerce, Milton Township, DuPage County, and Illinois, c) RINO candidates on ballots in my precinct and their major donors, political consultants, fundraisers, pollsters, campaign managers, campaign staff members, and campaign volunteers, and d) RINO conservative and religious leaders and activists.

WEDNESDAY JOURNAL
— Democrats say “In DEI training, Oak Park board talks plain about English. Theory of change and prevalence of the English language in U.S. discussed.” All my ancestors immigrated during the 1840s and 1850s from what is now Germany. Tragically, they were very slow to speak, read, and write English. Consequently, my father was only the first of my ancestors to earn a high school diploma. My mother never attended high school.
https://www.oakpark.com/2023/07/11/in-dei-training-oak-park-board-talks-plain-about-english/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: When the Oak Park village board first embarked on cultural competency training, its first session, held June 26, was dedicated to deconstructing what racial equity really is and the myths surrounding it. That deconstruction work continued July 5 during the board’s second session but evolved into an interesting discussion of how the prevalence of the English language in the United States has been used to assert cultural dominance. “I think being able to speak multiple languages is like a superpower, but it’s not always necessarily considered a value,” said Danielle Walker, the village’s chief officer of diversity, equity and inclusion. The discussion of the English language’s influence on American culture was spurred by Trustee Lucia Robinson, who used English-speaking mandates in areas along the United States-Mexico border as an example of how policies and practices can reinforce the systemic social barriers that create inequity.)

POLITICO ILLINOIS
— Democrats crow that “Uihleins lose a battle at home.”
https://www.politico.com/newsletters/illinois-playbook/2023/07/13/uihleins-say-new-law-really-blows-00106077
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Republican megadonors Dick and Liz Uihlein have lost some big battles over the years, but the latest one hits close to home — literally. The rule really blows: The Uihleins asked the Village of Lake Bluff, where they live on a huge estate, to exempt them from a new regulation that bans smelly, noisy gas-powered leaf blowers from May 15 to Sept. 30. Who’s exempt: Only public properties such as golf courses, village athletic fields and schools are allowed the exemption — and that’s just for two years while they get battery-powered equipment in hand. The Uihleins made their request in a June 2 letter to Village Administrator Drew Irvin. “Given the size of our 22-acre property in Lake Bluff, we would like to request a similar two-year exemption,” they wrote, adding that battery-powered blowers “simply cannot get the job done as well and are basically just as noisy as gas-powered ones.” Village President Regis Charlot referred the Uihleins’ request to the village’s Sustainability and Community Enhancement Committee, which discussed the issue but rejected the request, Irvin told Playbook. Village trustees unanimously agreed, and officially snuffed the Uihleins’ request at their June 27 board meeting, according to Pioneer Press’ Daniel I. Dorfman, who first wrote about the issue. From the board: “There are tools out there that can be used,” Trustee Marietta Hance said in Dorfman’s story. “This is a private family asking the community to make an exemption for them. It doesn’t fit with what we have decided.” Not their first loss: The Uihleins, who didn’t return requests for comment, are among the largest Republican donors in the country. And as POLITICO’s Alex Isenstadt recently wrote, the Uihleins have been criticized “for squandering millions of dollars on failed longshot candidates, including several in 2022, like Illinois gubernatorial candidate Darren Bailey and Arkansas Senate hopeful Jake Bequette.” The couple’s combined political giving to federal candidates and causes over the last decade exceeds $230 million, according to campaign finance records.)

I should write a book about those who have blasted me, demonized me, denigrated me, and condemned me the most.

HR DRIVE & HRO TODAY
— More than half of workers say they’re looking for a career change – Carolyn Crist (COMMENT: To justify forcing me to suffer a $21,863/year (21%) pay cut in today’s dollars to transfer from IRS to GAO in 1980 when I was 31 years old, the Democrats who ran GAO falsely painted my job transfer as being a career change. They ignored the fact that very much of what I did for IRS was very similar to what I would be doing for GAO. That similarity was shown by the fact that I passed the Certified Internal Auditor examination on my first attempt and became a licensed CPA in 1981. They not only would not have forced me to suffer a pay cut to transfer, they would have offered me a promotion to transfer if I had been a Democrat, minority, female, younger, veteran, LGBTQer, non-Christian, non-Protestant, non-German American, and/or if my ancestors had not been in America for a long time for the following reasons: a) GAO audits IRS, b) 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 $92,279-$104,563/year, b) I had passed the CPA examination on my first attempt in 1979, and c) I had earned an MNA from Loyola in 1976. I should write a book about the aforesaid.)

I would focus on those RINOs who falsely claim to be conservative and/or Republican to give themselves standing to destroy conservative Republicans like me. I would focus on those RINOs on ballots in my precinct who I have mistakenly done the most to help elect and to help reelect since 2000.

https://wcfcourier.com/opinion/letters/nation-is-under-attack-through-fentanyl/article_2c455340-1c71-11ee-90ab-0faa1a7ae780.html
(FROM THE LETTER: Illegal fentanyl is manufactured in China, shipped to Jalisco and Sinaloan cartels in Mexico. It is then shipped to our U.S. addicts and many will die of overdose. Fentanyl is 100 times more powerful than morphine and most addicts do not have a medical degree to get the right dose. Fentanyl overdoses have killed more than car accidents, gun violence, breast cancer, and suicide per year. We as a nation are under attack. We elect politicians to provide for our common defense, and they are doing a poor job of it. With the help of drugs and guns we are killing Americans quicker than new ones are born. China and other of our enemies find this easier than fighting our military. “Ask what you can do for your country, and do it now while you have time.”)

INSIDE HIGHER EDUCATION
— Democrats ask “After Supreme Court Ruling, Can the Essay Get You In?” and say “It may help to identify minority students, but experts caution against expecting essays to replace affirmative action.” I specially stated in my 1972 Loyola graduate business college application and in my 1976 DePaul graduate accounting college application that I wanted to take the courses to maintain and improve my job skills as an IRS employee. But my Democrat IRS superiors not only ignored that to disallow those courses, they outrageously, disgustingly, and unethically hinted/implied/argued/shouted that I lied in those applications and that I took those courses to get a job in the private sector.

FEDERAL NEWS NETWORK
— Federal pay raises have lagged private sector for more than a decade – Jared Serbu (COMMENT: I should write a book about my critics/opponents who have hinted/implied/argued/shouted the most a) since 1966 that the federal government grossly overpaid me and b) since 1997 that my federal retirement benefits are too generous. I would focus on those a) who have less job-related work experience than I have, b) who have less job-related education than I have, c) who have fewer job-related professional certifications than I have, and/or d) who do not have a job-related professional license like I have. I would focus on those who did things that disqualified themselves from being a federal employee.)
