But then, my Democrat IRS superiors disallowed my travel vouchers (SEE: https://www.gao.gov/products/b-180010.11 ) and got rid of the IRS manager who had a) promoted me to GS-9 (currently $63,633) in 1972, b) promoted me to GS-11 in 1973, c) got me the CentiPhone Manager assignment, and d) promoted me to GS-12 in 1974.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: n Oregon widow recently filed a federal lawsuit against the state’s Department of Human Services (DHS) because officials won’t allow her to adopt children from the foster care system. Why won’t they let Jessica Bates adopt? Because she, as a practicing Christian, refuses to submit to gay and transgender ideologies. Bates’s complaint is worth reading for anyone concerned about religious freedom. According to her complaint, Bates “initially progressed through the application process without any problems” until ideological insanity reared its ugly head.)

— When Race Trumps Merit: How the Pursuit of Equity Threatens Lives – HEATHER MAC DONALD
https://www.newsweek.com/when-race-trumps-merit-how-pursuit-equity-threatens-lives-opinion-1794872
(FROM THE ARTICLE: And so medical schools and medical societies are discarding traditional standards of merit in order to alter the demographic characteristics of their profession. As with all disparate impact analyses, that demolition of standards rests on an a priori truth: that there is no academic skills gap between whites and Asians, on the one hand, and blacks and Hispanics, on the other. Therefore, any test or evaluation on which blacks and Hispanics score worse than whites and Asians is biased and should be eliminated.)
— Democrats say “Bud Light Boycott Tears Republicans Apart.” I should write a book about those who continue to boycott me.

ECONOMIST
— Artificial intelligence is reaching behind newspaper paywalls. Publishers long accused tech firms of profiting from their content. Now they have a point. (COMMENT: www.gopillinois.com has never been paywalled and it never will be. GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters have always been free and free of advertising and donation requests and they always will be. Of course, my critics/opponents have always been beyond furious about that. They have always been beyond furious that since 2000 that I have had the time, money, ability, experience, and motivation to put together and send out the newsletters free of charge and without any advertising or donation requests and to post copies of them on www.gopillinois.com . I should write a book about my critics/opponents. I would focus on those who have taken the most/biggest adverse actions against me.)

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Patrick_Fitzgerald ) who was nominated by United States Senator Peter Fitzgerald ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peter_Fitzgerald_(politician) ) sided with GAO in Diersen v. GAOhttps://gopillinois.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/09/DiersenGAOFifthAmendedComplaint.pdf ). Fitzgerald defended GAO’s political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, age discrimination, religious discrimination, and national origin discrimination. Fitzgerald defended GAO’s use of up-or-out and Republican-led budget cuts to get rid of its employees who were conservative, Republican, White, male, older, non-veteran, Protestant, and/or German American.

— Democrats say “As the NRA meets in gun-friendly Indiana, new Illinois and federal laws aim to restrict weapons sales. But the next step must involve strengthening gun laws from coast to coast.” Ever-increasingly, Democrats a) run America and b) blame Republicans for gun violence instead of those who use guns illegally.

I should write a book about that.
https://www.chicagobusiness.com/greg-hinz-politics/illinois-conservatives-question-democrats-convention-choice
(FROM THE ARTICLE: In a statement, the Illinois General Assembly’s Freedom Caucus, which represents the Legislature’s most conservative members, questioned how the city can serve as the backdrop for a presidential candidate who has to run nationally. The seven-member group of state representatives focused on crime. “We would hope the Democrats coming to Chicago could learn a lesson about how not to govern but we are not holding our breath,” the caucus said in a statement. “The selection of Chicago, which just elected another soft-on-crime mayor, as the site for the 2024 Democratic National Convention speaks volumes about where the party is on the issue of crime.” The statement went on to praise, of all people, Bill Clinton, the last presidential candidate to be nominated at a Chicago convention, in 1996. “Democrats danced the Macarena at the convention as they celebrated the nomination of crime-fighter Bill Clinton, who made public safety the centerpiece of his 1996 campaign,” the caucus said. “When Democrats gather in Chicago in 2024, they will be facing the hard truth that Bill Clinton’s centrist policies no longer have the support of the majority of Democrats.” “New Democrat” Clinton, indeed, was more of a centrist than the current president, Joe Biden. But last time I checked, Republicans led by their conservative wing were busy trashing Clinton and his wife, 2016 Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton, as being tarnished and unfit to lead America. Neither Mayor Lori Lightfoot nor Gov. J.B. Pritzker had any immediate response to the statement.)

— Think Twice Before Firing – John Hirschauer (COMMENT: My Democrat GAO superiors did not have to think twice before they forced me to take their early retirement “offer” in 1997 when I was 49 years old. They knew that I would sue and that I would lose. They knew that Democrats and RINOs controlled the courts. They knew that I had no “jury appeal” because my demographics were terrible: conservative, Republican, White, male, older, childless, draft-avoider, non-poor, gun-owner, Protestant, 100% German American, my ancestors had been in America since 1844, Crete resident 1948-1972, and Wheaton resident since 1978. They knew that my Republican U.S. Senators and my Republican U.S. Representatives would not come to my defense: They knew that with my losing in court, they could argue both a) that they discriminated against me because that was exactly what Congress wanted they to do with their employees who shared my demographics and/or b) that they never discriminated against me and that all the many adverse actions that they took against me were justified because I was an extremely “bad person.”)

— The damaging effects of shifting from equal opportunity to ‘equal outcomes’ – ROBERT CHERRY (COMMENT: What were the demographics of those who took the same tests that you took? Overwhelmingly, those who took the same tests that I took were White males. Tests that I took and passed include a) all the tests needed to graduate in the upper 20% of my Crete-Monee High School class in 1966, b) the ACT in 1966, c) the postal employment test in 1966, d) the Federal Service Entrance Examination in 1970, d) all the tests needed to earn a bachelor’s degree in management from NIU in 1970, e) all the tests needed to earn an MBA from Loyola in 1976, f) the CPA examination in 1979, g) all the tests needed to earn a master’s degree in accounting from DePaul in 1980, h) the Certified Internal Auditor examination in 1981, and i) all the tests need to earn a master’s degree in financial markets and trading from IIT in 1997.)

— Democrats ask “Has Affirmative Action Affected Your Life?” and say “We Want to Know.” In 1971, when I was 22 years old, Oldsmobile withdrew a job offer that I had accepted saying that it had just agreed to stop hiring Whites to settle an EEOC complaint. Democrats and RINOs use Affirmative Action to get rid of Republicans. My Democrat superiors in the federal government used AA and up-or-out and budget cuts and my opposition to political affiliation, reverse discrimination, and age discrimination to take many adverse actions against me. My Democrat Post Office superiors disallowed my sick leave requests and forced me to resign in 1969. My Democrat IRS superiors disallowed my travel vouchers in 1974, never promoted me beyond GS-12, and disallowed my education deductions in 1978. My Democrat GAO superiors forced me to take a $21.863/year (21%) pay cut in today’s dollars to transfer from IRS to GAO in 1980, delayed my promotions, never promoted me beyond GS-13, always ranked me in the bottom half of my coworkers for pay-for-performance purposes, and forced me to take their early retirement “offer” in 1997 when I was 49 years old.

— Democrats say “DeSantis Allies Pressure Florida Lawmakers Against Endorsing Trump.” Since 2001, Jim Ryan supporters, their operatives, and their dupes have done everything that they could to destroy me because I ran Pat O’Malley gubernatorial primary campaign in Milton Township in the 2002 . They ignore, dismiss, belittle, demonize, denigrate, and/or condemn what I did to help elect Ryan after he won the primary. They continue to blame me and my GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters for Ryan losing to Blagojevich. I should write a book about that.

AMAC
— Exposing Biden’s Radical Government-Wide “Equity” Plans – B.C. Brutus (COMMENT: Ever-increasingly, Democrats use the federal government a) to take opportunities and money away from those who have demographics that vote for Republicans (heterosexual, conservative, White, male, older, non-poor, gun-owners, in traditional marriages, homeowners, Christian, Protestant, Italian American, German American, and/or those whose ancestors have been in America for a long time) and b) to give those opportunities and that money to those who have demographics that vote for Democrats (LGBTQ, liberal, minority, female, younger, poor, not in traditional marriages, renters, non-Christian, non-Protestant, non-Italian American, non-German American, and/or those whose ancestors have not been in America for a long time).)
https://amac.us/exposing-bidens-radical-government-wide-equity-plans/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Earlier this year, President Joe Biden signed another “racial equity” executive order mandating that every federal agency create a so-called “equity action plan” to “remove barriers for underserved communities.” Despite the benign-sounding language, however, the resulting “action plans” have made clear once again that the left’s “equity” agenda is antithetical to the principle of equality and effectively amounts to state-sponsored discrimination. In short, “promoting equity” is the left’s euphemism for using government or institutional power to manufacture equal outcomes across so-called “underrepresented communities.” Rather than creating equality of opportunity and allowing individuals to achieve success on their own merit, the “equity” doctrine says that everything from jobs to government benefits must be distributed in order to ensure everyone achieves the same outcome. If the concept sounds radical, that’s because it is – so radical, in fact, that even avowed “democratic-socialist” Senator Bernie Sanders voiced tacit opposition to it during an interview with liberal talk show host Bill Maher last month. Nonetheless, the Biden administration has been obsessed with equity since day one. Just hours after taking office, President Biden issued an executive order on “advancing racial equity and support for underserved communities through the federal government.” The order specifically mandates, “The head of each agency, or designee,” must “within 6 months of the date of this order… deliver a report to the President describing the best practices” to advance equity. In total, 92 agencies submitted such a report last year. While it went largely unnoticed by the media, the content of those reports was truly terrifying for Americans who believe that the government should not treat people differently based on race. Take, for example, the IRS’s report, which was released in October 2021. The document makes reference to “taxation equity,” raising the alarming possibility that the IRS – which just received funding for 87,000 new agents thanks to the “Inflation Reduction Act” – may soon move to make a person’s race, gender, or sexual orientation a determining factor in tax collection and enforcement. Current law does not allow the government to use demographic data from other government agencies in enforcement actions, but there are indications that the Biden IRS may move to change that. The Department of Transportation went a step further, promising to add “racial equity and barriers to opportunity as a consideration for awarding discretionary grants.” This plainly means that a grant applicant who is a person of color will be given preference over a white applicant purely because of their race. The Government Services Administration similarly pledged to “increase overall contract dollars awarded to underserved and disadvantaged communities.” The State Department equity plan specifically says that the agency will “prioritize engagements with diplomatic partners and individuals from underrepresented and underserved communities worldwide.” In other words, the Department admits it is conducting diplomacy in accordance with the left’s equity agenda, rather than to advance the best interests of the United States – a fact that should perhaps be unsurprising given the Biden administration’s numerous foreign policy fiascos. Amid mounting concerns about wokeness in the military driving down recruitment numbers, the Defense Department’s equity plan, released last April, emphasizes a “four-year strategic initiative” to promote equity “in the areas of recruitment and retention, promotion and development, and teaching and learning.” As yet more evidence of the disastrous consequences of implementing “equity” ideology through government actions, the Biden Department of Education equity plan touts the agency’s complete gutting of Title IX. The changes not only force radical gender ideology on the American public by hijacking the education system, they also reverses hard-won victories for women and girls by destroying female-only spaces and sports. Despite the path of destruction left in its wake, however, Biden was not content with just one equity executive order, and issued a second order on February 16 of this year. Although billions of taxpayer dollars had already been directed toward overhauling the entire federal bureaucracy in service of the left’s equity agenda, an effort that Biden describes as “embedding a focus on equity into the fabric of Federal policymaking,” the president insisted that it still was not enough. “Members of underserved communities still confront significant barriers to realizing the full promise of our great Nation,” the order says. Therefore, Biden orders agencies to create an equity action plan every year – a burdensome mandate that will lead to more wasted time and money. The new executive order also calls on every federal department to create an “agency equity team” that will “coordinate the implementation of equity initiatives and ensure that their respective agencies are delivering equitable outcomes for the American people.” In effect, these teams will act as “equity police” within government agencies, enforcing Biden’s equity mandate in order to advance the left’s mission of radical social transformation. The sprawling federal bureaucracy was largely ineffective and inefficient long before Joe Biden took office. Now, government agencies aren’t just incompetent, they’re actively working to dismantle core American values like equality – leading to disastrous outcomes for the taxpayers who fund those agencies in the process.)

I remember riding with one of my high school friends in his loaded red 1965 Mustang convertible that his father had bought him. Tuesday, I trading in my red 2016 Mustang V-6 for a new loaded red 2023 Mustang GT Premium coupe. SEE: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sCFj9lDyOAo I did that in part because the changes for the 2024 model do not motivate me.)
https://www.newsweek.com/ford-has-high-hopes-shedding-mustangs-boomer-buyer-image-1784686
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The Ford Mustang is a Boomer, but its maker is hoping that the latest iteration of the pony car will draw in buyers that weren’t alive when the car debuted. But, that doesn’t mean that the Ford team forgot about its core buyer database when developing the new, seventh-generation car. “We were able to take the heritage that is unmistakably Mustang, and bring it into the 21st century technology, performance, and appearance. The goals were to still not look backwards, but to stand on that foundation and look forward to bring it in. And, to bring it in in a way that would broaden the audience of Mustang,” Jim Owens, Ford’s Mustang marketing head told Newsweek. The average age of a new Mustang buyer is older than Ford would like it to be. The company is hoping to attract buyers who remember Fox Body design fondly from their childhoods, not those that were adults when those vehicles came to market. To appeal to younger generations, Ford locked into a completely new interior design for the 2024 Mustang, infusing more technology, with customization options available and gaming technology providing high-end graphics. The cockpit-like interior design positions the car’s screens toward the driver with the 12.4-inch digital instrument cluster able to blend almost seamlessly into the 13.2-inch infotainment touch screen. “If you think of the younger generations who personalize their technology… We brought that in authentically to Mustang so that owners can actually personalize their performance, their appearance, make it their Mustang through this technology,” Owens said. Owens doesn’t just work on Mustang. He is a customer, with fifth- and sixth-generation models in his family. He’s a self-proclaimed V8 guy who loves to hear the growl of an engine. “I’m gonna sit in those cars, I’m gonna start it up the minute I get in there,” he said. The new Mustang changed him. “We went into the studio and I sat there for 50 minutes, literally playing with the interior technology to make it my Mustang before I wanted to hit the start button. That is one of the key things that is taking that into that 21st century technology, if you will, in bringing out the audiences that are younger and Mustang lovers.” The addition of Android Auto, Apple CarPlay, Amazon Alexa and an available B&O sound system are designed to add to the youth appeal. The interior is the major talking point, but Owens is quick to point out that the exterior experience has been reimagined to appeal younger buyers too. Animated welcome lighting greets customers and when the door is opened, Mustang digital instrument cluster splash screens come to life. Remote Rev technology allows owners to rev their car’s engine from outside the vehicle, using the key fob. Though future autonomous cars are a sexy talking point, Owens believes that the Mustang buyer still wants the visceral drive experience the Ford offers, taking them away from the business world without leaving the technological world behind. “You know, it’s a vacation you take every day, right? You get in the car, you feel different at five o’clock or six o’clock whenever you leave work. This is a way to bring it to that younger audience that we’re extremely proud of,” he said.)

— Democrats say “Trump calls for defunding FBI, Department of Justice.” While I worked for the Democrats who ran GAO 1980-1997, Republicans ever-increasingly defunded GAO. I was one of the last Republicans that GAO hired. I was one of the very few Republicans in GAO’s Chicago office. My Democrat GAO superiors were furious at Republicans because of that defunding and they took their fury out on me. They a) forced me to suffer a $20,863/year (21%) pay cut in today’s dollars to transfer from IRS to GAO in 1980, b) gave me bad job assignments, unfair performance appraisals, and unfair performance appraisals, c) turned my superiors, supervisors, coworkers, and subordinates against me, d) assigned me to supervise their most problematic employees, e) kept me off audits of IRS except 1986-1988, f) delayed my promotions to GS-11, GS12, and GS-13 and never promoted me beyond GS-13, g) forced the GAO manager to retire in 1987 who had arranged my transfer, got me assigned to audits of IRS in 1986, and promoted me in 1986, h) always ranked me in the bottom half of my coworkers for pay-for-performance purposes, i) misled me to believe that they were going to let me work until I would be eligible for regular retirement when I was 55 in 2003, and j) forced me to take their early retirement “offer” in 1997 when I was 49 years old.

CHICAGO TRIBUNE
— Democrats say “Trump faces historic criminal charges” and ask “will local GOP leaders support his bid for president?” Political parties exist to help elect candidates who can and will defend and advance their platform. While he was President, Trump did far more than either Bush to defend and advance the Republican Party platform. GOP leaders who reject the following planks in the Republican Party platform never have supported Trump and they never will support Trump: individual responsibility, traditional marriage/family, right to life, immigration, Second Amendment, and/or equal opportunity (no race or gender based preference giving). I should write a book about the aforesaid GOP leaders in Illinois, in DuPage County, in Milton Township, and in Wheaton. I would focus on those who hate Trump and hate those who support Trump. I would focus on those who stress my support for Trump and have taken the most/biggest adverse actions against me since 2015 including a) gerrymandering my precinct in 2015, b) rudely ending my bid to be appointed to fill the Wheaton City Council West District vacancy in 2019, c) rudely ending my service as the Republican fundraiser for Wheaton Independence Day parades and fireworks in 2021, and d) rudely almost stopping me from attending the DeSantis event in Elmhurst as the GOPUSA Illinois reporter on February 20, 2023.

It didn’t mention Asian male teachers, but painted minority teachers as “people of color” as if Caucasians don’t come in many shades of skin tone. The article claimed that many minority males are hesitant to enter teaching as they think teaching in the K-12 public schools is primarily a female profession.

MSN
— Democrats say “Nikki Haley raises $11m in first quarter of 2024 campaign, which is more than Trump.” Because Democrats ever-increasingly run America, Democrats will determine which candidate will win the 2024 Republican presidential primary election. That candidate will be the one who Democrats believe will be the easiest to defeat in the 2024 general election.

— Democrats say “How to call the IRS and reach a real person.” (COMMENT: During 1974, as a 25-year-old GS-11 (currently $76,990/year) Revenue Officer, I supervised all of the IRS employees, which included a rotating staff of about 90 Revenue Agent trainees, in IRS’s new downtown Chicago office who answered taxpayer questions using IRS’s new CentiPhone system. Because of my performance, IRS promoted me to GS-12 (currently $92,279/year). But then, my Democrat IRS superiors disallowed my travel vouchers (SEE: https://www.gao.gov/products/b-180010.11 ) and got rid of the IRS manager who had a) promoted me to GS-9 (currently $63,633) in 1972, b) promoted me to GS-11 in 1973, c) got me the CentiPhone Manager assignment, and d) promoted me to GS-12 in 1974.)

Extremely few GAO employees make that promotion deadline. It is called up-or-out, political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, and age discrimination.)

WASHINGTON INFORMER
— Democrats say “As Deadline to File Income Taxes Approaches, African Americans Still Face Systemic Challenges.” I worked for the federal government for almost 30 years, including almost 9 years for IRS. I should write a book about my many African American superiors, supervisors, coworkers, and subordinates. Virtually all of them rejected tremendous efforts by my Democrat superiors to paint me as being a White supremacist, Nazi, KKK member, hater, racist, bigot, and even worse things. My African American superiors, supervisors, coworkers, and subordinates gave weight to the fact that a) neither of my parents attended college and they were not rich, b) I took bad jobs including washing dishes, cleaning golf shoes, chipping slag, and pumping gasoline that Democrats would never take, c) I was a union member for almost 12 years, d) my ancestors have always lived in northeast Illinois, and e) I bought a new town home in University Park. They saw the success that my Democrat superiors had getting my many Jewish superiors and supervisors to take adverse actions against me.
https://www.washingtoninformer.com/as-deadline-to-file-income-taxes-approaches-african-americans-still-face-systemic-challenges/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Many Black Americans have reported experiencing discrimination and bias while dealing with the IRS. Such actions can come in many forms, such as being audited unfairly or getting less help than other taxpayers. A recent study confirmed that Black Americans are three to five times more likely to face an IRS audit when compared with other taxpayers. . .Those facts have proven discouraging for African American taxpayers, who already have to deal with systemic racism and discrimination in other parts of their lives.)

They did that because I was a Republican a) who had complained political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, and age discrimination and b) because I was conservative, White, male, draft-avoider, Protestant, 100% German American, my ancestors had been in America since 1844, and a Crete resident 1948-1972.

Tests that I passed included a) all the tests needed to earn a high school diploma in 1966, graduate in the upper 20% of my class, and get an ACT score of 24, b) postal employment examination in 1966, c) Federal Service Entrance Examination in 1970, d) all the tests needed to earn a bachelor’s degree in management in 1970, e) all the tests necessary to earn master’s degrees in business, accounting, and finance in 1976, 1980, and 1997 respectively, f) CPA examination in 1979, and g) Certified Internal Auditor examination in 1981.)

But the Democrats who ran GAO 1980-1997 wasted my career and forced me to take their early retirement “offer” in 1997 when I was 49 years old. GAO audits IRS. GAO wasted what I had learned by a) working 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-$104,583/year 1971-1980, b) earning an MBA from Loyola in 1976, c) passing the CPA examination on my first attempt in 1979, d) earning a master’s degree in accounting from DePaul in 1980, d) passing the Certified Internal Auditor examination on my first attempt in 1981, e) auditing IRS 1986-1988, f) auditing federal financial institution regulators 1990-1997, and g) earning a master’s degree in financial markets and trading from IIT in 1997. I should write a book about the aforesaid.)

GUN OWNERS OF AMERICA
— WHEN MY FAMILY WAS DISARMED: ARMENIAN GENOCIDE PERPETRATED AGAINST DEFENSELESS POPULACE – Alex Madajian
https://www.gunowners.org/when-my-family-was-disarmed-armenian-genocide-perpetrated-against-defenseless-populace/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The Armenian genocide during World War I was perpetrated against a disarmed populace, whose own government took advantage of a registry of guns to confiscate the weapons from Christian minorities who would use them to defend themselves. My family hails from the region of present-day Turkey that was ethnically cleansed of nearly all Christian minorities during the First World War. Thankfully, most of my direct ancestors escaped to the United States. But others were not so lucky. While bigotry, nationalism and other factors contributed to the genocide, the gun registry was one of the most consequential reasons the Turks effectively carried out this barbaric act. We know from the Ottoman Penal Code that the firearm registry was universal and instituted before the genocide. In addition to a gun registry, there were specific penalties put in place for Christians if they were caught openly bearing arms. Despite these restrictions, I’m proud that people in my ancestors’ village of Tomarza were known to openly carry guns in direct defiance of the tyrannical Turkish government. Unfortunately, their defiance did not stop the Turks in the long run. My great-grandfather’s brother, an eyewitness, wrote in a letter that after the Turks declared that all registered guns would be confiscated, it resulted in “all weapons, even hunting guns, [being] surrendered to the government.” If anyone refused to do so, they would be put to death.)

— Tucker Carlson: If You Wanted To Stop Murder You Would Focus On The People Committing Murder – Tyler Stone (COMMENT: In your municipality, in your township, and in your county, what are the demographics a) of those who commit crime and b) of their victims?)
https://www.realclearpolitics.com/video/2023/03/30/tucker_carlson_if_you_wanted_to_stop_murder_you_would_focus_on_the_people_committing_murder.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The problem is always the person, not the tool he uses to commit a crime. If you wanted to stop murder, you would focus on the people who were committing murder, not on the hundreds of millions of their neighbors who are not. You would really want to know what motivated killers to kill, and the first thing you would do is study what murderers have in common with one another, how they were raised and where, their educational backgrounds, their genetic make-up, drug and alcohol use, their ideological and religious views, their sexual behavior and probably a whole lot of other factors.)

How many demographics do you share with Trump? I share all of the aforesaid demographics with Trump, and in addition, we are both draft-avoiders. That explains why my hate-filled Trump-hating critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes have been so successful in promoting hatred against me.

Pritzker’s campaign fund, also is targeting voters with mailers and digital ads. But the party’s campaign fund is allowed to coordinate directly with candidates and therefore does not have to disclose its spending until the next quarterly filing deadline on April 17.

Kresge in Chicago Heights would have hired a non-citizen instead of me in 1964 to wash dishes, b) the Park Forest Post Office would have hired a non-citizen instead of me in 1966 to deliver mail, c) IRS in Chicago would have hired a non-citizen instead of me in 1971 to collect delinquent taxes, and d) GAO in Chicago would have hired a non-citizen instead of me in 1980 to audit federal agencies. My critics/opponents cannot similarly say that non-citizens would have been hired instead of them because they did not have to take “bad jobs” like I did because their parents had far more money than my parents had. I should write a book about my critics/opponents.

— Democrats say “GOP wants answers after IRS agent allegedly shows up at Twitter Files journalist’s house.” I should write a book about the adverse actions that the Democrats who ran IRS took against me. I would focus on their a) disallowing my travel vouchers in 1974, b) disallowing my education deductions in 1978, and c) not promoting me after 1974. One reason why I agreed to suffer a $21,863/year (21%) pay cut in today’s dollars to transfer from IRS to GAO in 1980 was to escape further adverse actions.

NPR ILLINOIS
— Democrats say “Republican lawmakers want to give parents increased oversight into their children’s education.” Yes, but if given more power, Democrat parents will do even more to force their schools to crank out “good little Democrats.” Ever-increasingly, if you are not a Democrat, a) colleges will not accept you, b) employers will not hire, retain, or promote you, and c) employers will get rid of you.

I should write a book about my Democrat GAO superiors and supervisors a) who hinted/implied/argued/shouted the most that I lied about my and my wife’s efforts to have children and b) who viciously demonized me, viciously denigrated me, viciously condemned me, and viciously punished me for our not adopting or becoming foster parents. Better yet, I should sue them.

Consequently, my precinct needlessly suffered far greater exposure to storm-caused outages. Actions that I took included pursing an ICC complaint (Docket No. 990063) against ComEd.

GOPUSA ILLINOIS
— Should I form an “Association of Conservative Illinois Journalists?” Of course my critics/opponents would fight me tooth and nail. In my defense, I would stress a) that I have been the GOPUSA Illinois Editor since 2000, b) that since 2004, GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters have included links to more than 453,700 articles, c) that what I did as a GAO Analyst 1980-1997 was very similar to what journalists do, and d) that during my last 11 years at GAO, my salary increased from $109,732/year to $142,650/year in today’s dollars. My critics/opponents destroy those like me a) who they cannot manipulate or dominate, b) who refuse to glorify and praise them, c) who refuse to pander to them, d) who refuse to serve as one of their operatives or dupes, e) who refuse to cover up their wrong doing, and/or f) who refuse to give them money. My critics/opponents have taken many big adverse actions against me a) to stop me from sending out GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters and b) to stop everyone from reading my newsletters. Most recently, they did everything that they could to stop me from reporting on the February 20, 2023 DeSantis event in Elmhurst. I should write a book about my critics/opponents. I would focus on those who compete directly against me and who paint themselves as being religious, conservative, and/or Republican and who have lots of religious, government, political, and/or financial clout in Wheaton, Milton Township, DuPage County, and/or Illinois. Better yet, I should sue them. – Dave Diersen

EPOCH TIMES
— House Passes Parents Bill of Rights Act – Joseph Lord
https://www.theepochtimes.com/house-passes-parents-bill-of-rights-act_5147144.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: One of the Republicans’ key goals in crafting the bill was to ensure that parents who speak out against what is being taught to their children do not face retribution from local, state, or federal authorities. “No longer will [parents] have their speech denied, or feel threatened for expressing their concerns at school board meetings,” Foxx said. The comment was in reference to a late-2021 controversy in which Attorney General Merrick Garland offered federal resources and guidance to local law enforcement to target parents who attended school board meetings. In 2021, the United States saw a deluge of concerned parents coming to school board meetings to speak out against left-wing ideology in the classroom. Many parents came to their school board to speak out against critical race theory (CRT), a highly contentious left-wing theory that holds that white people are inherently “privileged” and that non-white people are inherently oppressed. Critics of CRT note that it has its origins in the political thought of Karl Marx, the ideological founder of communism; the theory has also been criticized as racist for its efforts to reduce the individual to a member of a group on the basis of their skin color. In his remarks against the bill, Scott suggested that CRT was “an accurate recounting of our nation’s history,” and that the legislation would “punish librarians” who pushed CRT. Other parents came to school board meetings to speak out against fringe left-wing notions of sex and gender. Many left-wing activists claim that gender is a social construct and that a person can change their gender based on their feelings. One parent, Terry Newsome of Chicago, who spoke out against allowing “Gender Queer” in his kids’ school library in 2021, was later placed on a terror watch-list with no warning or further explanation.)

https://www.oann.com/newsroom/huckabee-sanders-goes-after-white-privilege-survey/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: At a mandatory training last month, a high school in Arkansas issued its teachers a poll that forced them to reject the perks that come with being White. The survey was titled “Cultural Competency Continuum: Knowledge, Behaviors, and Dispositions for Educators,” and it was handed out during an obligatory educator-led development training, according to a letter sent by John L. Colbert, Fayetteville Public Schools Superintendent. However, the unexpected teacher survey may have possibly violated Governor Sarah Huckabee Sanders’ restriction on Critical Race Theory (CRT). “My administration will not tolerate this kind of CRT and indoctrination in our public schools,” Sanders said. Photos of the four-section survey, which the group had obtained from a teacher, were tweeted by a local “Mom’s for Liberty” chapter. “This survey compels teachers to acknowledge that, if White, they are biased, racist, and privileged… The survey does not measure IF a teacher is racist and privileged but rather how far down the racist and privileged continuum their answers rate them,” tweeted the mother-run group. “If there was any question about the presence of CRT in our district, this survey removes all doubt.” The Cultural Competency Continuum survey was recently given to teachers at Fayetteville High. This survey requires “teachers to acknowledge and to continually examine the influence of race, culture, power and privilege…In the “Analyze and Align” portion, educators were asked if they renounce “any privileges that come with White racial identity” and if they “advocate for cultural competency and social justice effectively and professionally.” The “Awaken and Assess” portion questioned participants if they were cognizant of their own privileges, biases, and stereotypes. In the “Apply and Act” portion, participants were asked if they normally “monitor and manage equitable access and support services” for their students by looking at data on their gender, color, ethnicity, and language. Also, it inquired as to whether they permit pupils to raise the awareness of teachers “by questioning bias assumptions or behaviors observed in our school environment.” Additionally, the survey questioned if participating educators were “brave equity warriors.” “We’ve already reached out to the district to ensure no teacher is forced to sign this pledge. We’re making sure it doesn’t happen again. We will teach kids how to think, not what to think,” Sanders said. Sanders had announced a ban on the schooling of CRT as one of her first official acts as governor. In his letter, Colbert stated that the Arkansas Department of Education had found the survey to be in violation of this rule. “Based on this guidance, Fayetteville Public Schools will ensure this survey is not further disseminated,” Colbert said in response to angry teachers and parents. All upcoming professional development materials, he pledged, would be examined to assure the utmost compliance. Colbert later downplayed the incident, claiming that the teacher survey was only ever used as a tool for introspection and was never actually collected or made mandatory. However, this contradicted what some teachers said were instructed to them in the beginning, regarding the survey. The Fayetteville Public School District declined to give any comments or answer journalist questions.)

https://phys.org/news/2023-03-non-white-homeowners-property.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: In flood-prone areas of New York state, non-white homeowners are more likely than white homeowners to take active, sometimes-costly measures—such as finding a way to protect a furnace, a water heater or installing a sump pump—to prepare for a possible deluge, according to a new Cornell study. White respondents to a survey, the researchers learned, were generally more confident of better outcomes from dire situations and saw the possibility of a flood threat differently. Thus, people who identified as white took more low-cost actions to protect their property from flooding—but tended to stop short of expensive measures. “Most of the time for people who live in flood-prone areas, flooding is not a top-of-the-mind worry,”)

— Poll: Most Voters See a Trump-Biden Rematch on the Horizon – HANNAH BLEAU (COMMENT: One could argue that because Democrats ever-increasingly run everything in America, Democrats will determine which candidate will win the 2024 Republican presidential primary. Democrats want that candidate to be the one who they believe will be the easiest to defeat in the 2004 general election. Which candidate do you believe Democrats want to win the 2024 Republican presidential primary?)

FEDERALIST
— Indiana Lawsuit Challenges Parties’ Right To Keep Candidates Off The Ballot – OLIVIA HAJICEK (COMMENT: Political parties exist to help elect candidates who can and will defend and advance their platform. The Republican Party platform is conservative. The Illinois Republican Party, DuPage County Republican Central Committee, and Milton Township Republican Organization should officially have the power to stop candidates from running as Republicans in Illinois, in DuPage County, and in Milton Township. But of course, if the aforesaid organizations officially had that power, their Democrat plant, Libertarian plant, Green plant, Independent plant, and RINO leaders would officially use that power to stop candidates from running as Republicans who support the following planks in the Republican Party platform: a) individual responsibility, b) traditional marriage/family, c) right to life, immigration, Second Amendment, illegal drugs, and/or equal opportunity (no race or gender based preference giving). Because I support the aforesaid planks, if I had tried to run for any government office in Illinois, DuPage County, or Milton Township, Democrat plant, Libertarian plant, Green plant, Independent plant, and RINO leaders of the aforesaid organizations would have stopped if they had the power to do so. Just look at how they attacked me when sought to be appointed to fill the Wheaton City Council West District vacancy in 2019.)

In my precinct, a) I delivered Trump campaign literature and b) after he won the 2016 and 2020 primaries, I sought yard sign locations for his campaigns. Because of my policy of staying out of primaries, I did not recommend any Republican candidate in the 2016 and 2020 Republican primaries. Trump supporters would viciously disagree that I have favored Trump with my GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters. )
