https://www.chicagotribune.com/politics/ct-lori-lightfoot-interview-policy-lawsuit-20210527-gntljfjl2bbflit4gpghqz2g7a-story.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: A conservative media outlet and one of its white reporters sued Chicago Mayor Lori Lightfoot on Thursday, alleging their free speech and civil rights were violated last week when she only granted interviews marking her two-year anniversary in office to reporters of color. Thomas Catenacci, and the Daily Caller News Foundation for which he is a national reporter, filed a lawsuit in federal court in Illinois a week after Lightfoot’s decision led to conservative backlash as well as a renewed debate about diversity in the media. “Preventing journalists from doing our jobs in such a blatantly discriminatory way is wrong and does a disservice to our readers who come from all backgrounds,” Catenacci wrote in a statement. “I look forward to holding the mayor accountable.” Catenacci is being represented by the Chicago-based Svenson Law Offices as well as the conservative group Judicial Watch.)

(DIERSEN: During my last 8 years at GAO, I worked for a GS-15 (currently $142,041-$172,500/year) female. It was obvious that she was under orders from her superiors to get rid of me and to give my job and my preferred corner office to my Black subordinate. They stressed to her that I was a conservative Republican and that I had been baptized, raised, and confirmed as a Missouri Synod Lutheran, that I was 100% German national origin, and that my ancestors had been in America since 1844. She was younger than me, Jewish, 100% Russian national origin, and her parents were recent immigrants. I should write a book about the many adverse actions that she took against me.)

They did not believe that my financial hardship draft deferment would be approved. Starting in 1966, when I was 18 years old, my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes have used my avoiding the draft against me big time. I should write a book about that.)

HERALD NET
— Democrats have long history of racism – Doug Roulstone, Chairman, Snohomish County Republican Party
https://www.heraldnet.com/opinion/democrats-have-long-history-of-racism/
(FROM THE LETTER: Did you know that almost all slaves purchased in the United States were bought by Democrats? In 1860, all 4 million slaves were owned by Democrats. Republican Abraham Lincoln signed the Emancipation Proclamation on Jan. 1, 1863, freeing all those that were slaves. The Republican party in the southern states was founded by former slaves. These same people were the first of their race elected to the U.S. House and Senate. The Republican Party Platform in 1858 called for the abolishment of slavery. When did the Democratic Party call for the abolishment of slavery? Did you know that Democrats wrote the Jim Crow laws? Democrats founded the Ku Klux Klan. Republicans repealed Jim Crow laws. Southern Democrats filibustered against the 1964 Civil Right Act. The Republican Party has a rich history of equality for all. The Democratic Party has a rich history of racism. It is very amusing to hear Democrats talk about reparations. Democrats are the only ones that should pay reparations based on the true history of slavery in the United States. When have the Democrats apologized for slavery? When have the Democrats apologized for the Jim Crow laws? When have the Democrats apologized for founding the Ku Klux Klan? They haven’t. I am proud to be a Republican. I am proud of our rich history supporting African Americans. I will not be bullied by someone who calls me a racist.)

(DIERSEN: In a different world, my Republican U.S. Senators and my Republican U.S. Representatives would have demanded investigations of the adverse actions that the Democrats who ran GAO 1980-1997, IRS 1971-1980, and Post Office 1966-1969 took against me. My Democrat GAO superiors forced me to retire in 1997 when I was 49 years old, gave me unfair performance expectations and appraisals, always ranked me in the bottom half of my coworkers for pay-for-performance purposes, did not promote me beyond GS-13, got rid of my mentor in 1987, kept me off audits of IRS for all but 3 of the almost 18 years that I worked for GAO, and forced me to take a $20,361 (21%) pay cut in today’s dollars to transfer from IRS to GAO in 1980. My Democrat IRS superiors did not promote me beyond GS-12, disallowed my education deductions in 1978, got rid of my mentor in 1975, and disallowed my partial day per diem claims in 1974. My Democrat Post Office superiors forced me to resign in 1969 and disallowed my sick leave requests in 1969 and 1968.)

Matthew Lohmeier’s actions constituted “prohibited partisan political activity” had been elevated “due to the complexity and sensitivity of the issues under consideration, as well as potential for [Air Force]-wide impact.” Lohmeier was relieved of command of the 11th Space Warning Squadron at Buckley Air Force Base in Colorado after he appeared on the “Information Operation” podcast earlier this month to discuss his book “Irresistible Revolution: Marxism’s Goal of Conquest & the Unmaking of the American Military.” “The diversity, inclusion and equity industry and the trainings we are receiving in the military … is rooted in critical race theory, which is rooted in Marxism,” Lohmeier told podcast host L. Todd Wood.)

(DIERSEN: How wealthy were your parents when you were young? I should write a book about those who have hinted/implied/argued/shouted the loudest that my parents were filthy rich when my brother and I were young. Neither of my outstanding parents attended college. My father was the first of his ancestors to earn a high school diploma. He fought brittle type 1 diabetes from age 14. He worked in the office of a nasty chemical plant in Chicago Heights. He almost always worked second jobs to pay the family’s bills. He did not buy a new car until he was 45 years old and it was a bottom of the line 2-door Chevy. He died suddenly of heart failure in 1969 when he was 47 and I was 21. My mother never attended high school. If my parents were filthy rich, why did I do yard work and deliver newspapers 1962-1964; wash dishes 1964-1966; clean golf shoes, chip slag, and pump gasoline in 1966; deliver mail 1966-1969; work on an automobile assembly line and as a security guard in 1970; sell tires, automotive services, and major appliances 1970-1971; and pump gasoline 1971-1972?)

Chris, It is uncomfortable at times, but one of my jobs is to hold my Republican leadership accountable for being focused on the Republican ideals that we stand for and the single mission that we have to win back the majority,” Banks said. “The reason, Chris, that you and I are talking about Liz Cheney on this important program on Sunday morning is the exact evidence that she’s failed in her mission as the chief spokesperson of this party.” Banks said Cheney should be talking about President Biden’s “radical agenda” and said her failure to focus on that is why he and other House Republicans believe it is “necessary” for her to be replaced.)

Democrat plants, Libertarian plants, Green plants, Independent plants, and RINOs use the Republican Party’s big tent policy to destroy the Republican Party. I should write a book about Democrat plant, Libertarian plant, Green plant, Independent plant, and RINO leaders of the Illinois Republican Party (IRP), DuPage County Republican Central Committee (DCRCC), and Milton Township Republican Organization (MTRO) since 2000. I would focus on those who focused on a) driving conservatives out of the IRP, DCRCC, and MTRO and b) destroying the IRP, DCRCC, and MTRO. I would focus on those who rejected the traditional family, right to life, immigration, illegal drugs, Second Amendment, and/or equal opportunity (no race or gender based preference giving) planks in the Republican Party Platform. I would focus on those who promoted dependency on government, dependency on charity, LGBTQ, abortion, mass/illegal immigration, booze, gambling, pot, and other vices, abolition of the First and Second Amendments, patronage, political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, and age discrimination. I would focus on those who destroyed those a) who they could not manipulate or dominate, b) who refused to glorify and praise them, c) who refused to pander to them, d) who refused serve as one of their operatives or dupes, d) who refused to cover-up their wrong doing, and e) who refused to give them money.)

— Racial equity is important, but it doesn’t trump the right to excel. Students of color need the opportunity to succeed, not a false sense of equivalence. – James S. Robbins
(DIERSEN: UIC accepted me in 1966, NIU in 1969, Loyola in 1972, DePaul in 1976, and IIT in 1992. I doubt that they would accept me today because I am White, male, heterosexual, non-poor, non-veteran, Protestant, German American, conservative, Republican, and my ancestors have been in America since 1844.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: Take the reaction to the results of New York City’s Specialized High School Admissions Test. Asian students dominated, taking over half the coveted specialized high school seats, despite being about 16% of the student population. Black teenagers, who make up over a quarter of students, passed in the low single digits. School Chancellor Meisha Ross Porter called the test results “unacceptable,” and Mayor Bill de Blasio has said that such tests reflect “this old system that has perpetuated massive segregation.”)

— Documentation, Evaluations Critical to Human Resources Management
(DIERSEN: I worked for GAO 1980-1997. In Diersen v. GAO, I entered into the court record all of the many evaluations that I received. Not one of them justified any of the adverse actions that my Democrat GAO superiors took against me. My Democrat GAO superiors forced me to retire in 1997 when I was 49 years old, gave me unfair performance expectations and appraisals, always ranked me in the bottom half of my coworkers for pay-for-performance purposes, did not promote me beyond GS-13, got rid of my mentor in 1987, kept me off audits of IRS for all but 3 of the almost 18 years that I worked for GAO, and forced me to take a $20,361 (21%) pay cut in today’s dollars to transfer from IRS to GAO in 1980. My GAO superiors were always under tremendous pressure from Democrat politicians to get rid of their employees who were Republican, White, male, and/or non-veteran who had not made GS-13 (currently $102,188) by age 25, GS-14 (currently $120,755) by age 30, GS-15 (currently $142,041) by age 35, and Senior Executive Service (currently $172,500) by age 40.)

AMERICAN THINKER
— Illinois House passes bill radically expanding scope of affirmative action, renaming it ‘positive action’ – Thomas Lifson
(DIERSEN: Democrats have always used Affirmative Action (AA) to hire, retain, and promote Democrats, and especially Democrats who are minority, female, and/or younger. Democrats have always used AA to not hire and to get rid of Republicans, and especially Republicans who are White, male, and/or older.)
https://www.americanthinker.com/blog/2021/05/illinois_house_passes_bill_radically_expanding_scope_of_affirmative_action_renaming_it_positive_action.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: A bill that has already passed the Illinois State House of Representatives and awaits a State Senate vote would grant preferences in hiring and promotion to people with “any characteristic whatsoever that might disadvantage somebody, regardless of whether the characteristic is inherited or self-inflicted.” A lack of education, for instance. – Mark Glennon explains Illinois House Bill 3914 in the site he founded, Wirepoints: “It would have state agencies give hiring preference to anybody with a “protected characteristic.” The bill’s definition of that term is the key. It includes “any characteristic which may be used, either directly or indirectly, to discriminate against or place at a disadvantage such persons having that characteristic.” So, it’s not just involuntary traits like race or gender, it’s anything that would disadvantage somebody, even if self-imposed. Anything. As you think about examples of how absurd this is, it’s important to remember this is not about nondiscrimination. It’s about creating new preferences for anybody with a “protected characteristic.” He offers a number of examples of characteristics that would be covered, and result in preferences, such as: “Or what about applicants who are unintelligent, even those who are so because they haven’t been motivated enough to educate themselves? And what about those who simply lack experience? They, too, generally fare poorly in the labor market and those traits also fit within the definition of “protected characteristics.” The bill would call for them to get a preference over those who are smarter or more experienced, and no distinction would be made if those traits stemmed from simple lack of effort.”)

BREITBART
— What Happened to Adam Kinzinger? – JOEL B. POLLAK
https://www.breitbart.com/politics/2021/05/09/pollak-what-happened-to-adam-kinzinger-illinois/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: After the 2010 elections, when five Tea Party-backed Republicans won congressional seats in Illinois, the Democrats in the state legislature redrew the district boundaries and pitted Kinzinger against fellow incumbent Rep. Don Manzullo (R-IL), a staunch conservative long before the Tea Party. Kinzinger painted himself as the young, fresh face against “a creaky lawmaker long past his prime,” in Politico‘s words. He had the backing of the Republican establishment; conservative groups belatedly backed Manzullo. Kinzinger won, having burned his bridges to the conservative movement. His district is reliably Republican, so he wins easy re-elections. But his new constituency has become CNN. Kinzinger’s shift is what happens when Democrats control the media, and the map. That’s why we are debating Trump: it suits Democrats, and the media, who will do anything not to talk about Biden and his policies.)

NEWS BUSTERS
— Internal Documents Reveal Disney Striving for Insane Wokeness – P.J. Gladnick
(DIERSEN: Who is leading the effort to turn your municipality, your township, and your county into a “leftist woke cult?”)
https://www.newsbusters.org/blogs/nb/pj-gladnick/2021/05/09/internal-documents-reveal-disney-striving-insane-wokeness
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Disney is supposed to create happiness but according to leaked internal documents, what that corporation now seems to be striving for is an insane level of very angry wokeness that is quite disturbing. Fortunately internal documents from the Disney corporation were leaked to Christopher Rufo of the City Journal which he revealed on Friday in “The Wokest Place on Earth.” In the past year, Disney executives have elevated the ideology of critical race theory into a new corporate dogma, bombarded employees with trainings on “systemic racism,” “white privilege,” “white fragility,” and “white saviors,” and launched racially segregated “affinity groups” at the company’s headquarters. The Disney wokeness program comes under the umbrella name of “Reimagine Tomorrow” composed of “training modules” that sound like indoctrination by a Maoist cult. Rufo writes: I have obtained a trove of whistleblower documents related to Disney’s “diversity and inclusion” program, called “Reimagine Tomorrow,” which paints a disturbing picture of the company’s embrace of racial politics. Multiple Disney employees, who requested anonymity out of fear of reprisals, told me that the Reimagine Tomorrow program, though perhaps noble in intent, has become deeply politicized and engulfed parts of the company in racial conflict. The core of Disney’s racial program is a series of training modules on “antiracism.” In one, called “Allyship for Race Consciousness,” the company tells employees that they must “take ownership of educating [themselves] about structural anti-Black racism” and that they should “not rely on [their] Black colleagues to educate [them],” because it is “emotionally taxing.” The United States, the document claims, has a “long history of systemic racism and transphobia,” and white employees, in particular, must “work through feelings of guilt, shame, and defensiveness to understand what is beneath them and what needs to be healed.” Disney recommends that employees atone by “challeng[ing] colorblind ideologies and rhetoric” such as “All Lives Matter” and “I don’t see color”; they must “listen with empathy [to] Black colleagues” and must “not question or debate Black colleagues’ lived experience.” As part of this woke ideology the idea of equality must be ditched in favor of “equity.” In another module, called “What Can I Do About Racism?,” Disney tells employees that they should reject “equality,” with a focus on “equal treatment and access to opportunities,” and instead strive for “equity,” with a focus on “the equality of outcome.” The training also includes a series of lessons on “implicit biases,” “microaggressions,” and “becoming an antiracist.” The company tells employees that they must “reflect” on America’s “racist infrastructure” and “think carefully about whether or not your wealth, income, treatment by the criminal justice system, employment, access to housing, health care, political power, and education might be different if you were of a different race.” There are many, many more examples of cultish leftism that has taken hold at Disney but I leave with you one final example from Rufo’s expose of their descent into political insanity: Finally, as part of an initiative labeled “CEO sponsored priorities,” Disney has launched racially segregated “affinity groups” for minority employees, with the goal of achieving “culturally-authentic insights.” In the original launch, the Latino affinity group was called “Hola,” the Asian affinity group was called “Compass,” and the black affinity group was called “Wakanda.” The racial affinity groups, also called Business Employee Resource Groups (BERGs), are technically open to all employees but in practice have become almost entirely segregated by race, with the occasional exception for white “executive champions” who attend on behalf of corporate leadership. And here is the viewpoint on all this woke craziness by white “executive champion” Bob Iger: …executive chairman Bob Iger pledged that the company “should be taking a stand” on political controversies and will no longer “shy away from politics” in the future. Hey Bob! Will you still be of that opinion when your customers “shy away” from Disney after finding out that you are turning your company into a leftist woke cult?)

NEW YORK TIMES
— The Stealth Sticker Campaign to Expose New York’s History of Slavery Peter Stuyvesant was an enslaver. So were other prominent New Yorkers whose names are all over the city. – Julianne McShane
(DIERSEN: From what I see, sooner or later, Democrats will force all White Republicans to disclose how many slaves their ancestors owned. None of my ancestors owned slaves. They immigrated from what is now Germany to northeast Illinois during the 1840s and 1850s.)
https://www.nytimes.com/2021/05/07/nyregion/slavery-nyc.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Last month, Vanessa Thompson stepped outside the juice bar where she works on Nostrand Avenue in Brooklyn and noticed a green and white sticker on a light pole. She leaned in for a closer look. “John van Nostrand was a slave owner,” it said. “According to the US census in 1790, the (Van) Nostrands owned 6 people.” Ms. Thompson, who is Black, was dumbfounded. “I didn’t even know anything about that,” she said. “He could’ve owned me.” The sticker was partly the brainchild of Elsa Eli Waithe, 33, a comedian living in Crown Heights, Brooklyn, who, along with two collaborators, has been on a mission to let New Yorkers know that a good number of the city’s streets, subway stations and neighborhoods are named after enslavers.)

— Why Do Diversity And Inclusion Initiatives Fail? The Cautionary Tale Of Basecamp. – Agnes Uhereczky
(DIERSEN: Diversity and Inclusion efforts did not fail at GAO. During the 1980s and 1990s, the Democrats who ran GAO used Republican-led budget cuts to get rid of GAO’s employees who were Republican, White, male, and/or non-veteran who they had not promoted to GS-13 (currently $102,188) by age 25, GS-14 (currently $120,755) by age 30, GS-15 (currently $142,041) by age 35, and Senior Executive Service (currently $172,500) by age 40. I am Republican, White, male, non-veteran, and born in 1948. In retrospect, with benefit of hindsight, I am shocked that GAO hired me in 1980, that GAO promoted me to GS-13 in 1986, and that GAO did not force me to retire until 1997 when I was 49 years old. GAO would not have hired me, let alone promoted me or let me work there for almost 18 years, if I had not a) earned an MBA from Loyola in 1976, b) pasted the CPA examination on my first attempt in 1979, c) earned a master’s degree in accounting from DePaul in 1980, d) passed the Certified Internal Auditor examination on my first attempt in 1981, e) became a licensed CPA in 1981, f) became a Certified Fraud Examiner in 1990, Certified Government Financial Manager in 1994, Certified Financial Services Auditor in 1996, and Forensic Accountant in 1997, and f) earned a master’s degree in financial markets and trading from IIT in 1997.)

HOT CARS
— These Classic American Cars Will Obliterate Modern Sports Cars. Americans’ hunger for V8 power in the ’60s and ’70s gave birth to dozens of machines that are still able to embarrass many modern sports cars. – MARK LAKEWOOD
(DIERSEN: I owned a 1969 Dodge Charger SE 1968-1971. I owned a 1968 Dodge Charger R/T 1994-2005. Sadly, my ownership of the 1968 Dodge Charger R/T was tarnished by odometer fraud. SEE: https://caselaw.findlaw.com/us-7th-circuit/1385001.html and https://gopillinois.com/about/odometer/ )
https://www.hotcars.com/these-classic-american-cars-will-obliterate-modern-sports-cars/

(FROM THE ARTICLE: 1968 Dodge Charger R/T The Dodge Charger debuted in 1966 and received its chassis from the mid-sized Coronet. It made great efforts to curve a body and life of its own. It became a beloved high-speed streetcar and one of the more pricey fastback specialty machines of this season. The standard engine was a 5.2-liter V-8 engine discharging 230 hp. Over time, engines such as a 6.2-liter V-8 generating 325 ponies were availed. The icing on the cake was the 426 cubic-inch Street HEMI engine that changed fortunes for the Dodge Charger. The 1968 version was redesigned to set it completely apart from the Dodge Coronet. This version bore the R/T(Road/Track) capabilities, with twin stripes around the back being the distinguishing spec. The presence of a Charger R/T in the 1968 film Bullitt cements its importance in this season. If you get hold of one, be kind to let us know how it behaves against modern contemporaries, but we can guarantee you it will be satisfying.)

INDEPENDENT
— White House answered fake reporter’s questions for weeks before she was revealed as a “Lego” video gamer. DC reporters frequently asked Jen Psaki questions on behalf of Kacey Montagu, who it turns out was not a real person – Nathan Place
https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/americas/us-politics/white-house-lego-fake-reporter-b1829659.html

(FROM THE ARTICLE: At a few recent White House press briefings, reporters have posed questions to Press Secretary Jen Psaki on behalf of a reporter named Kacey Montagu, who said she couldn’t be there due to Covid-19 precautions. In fact, the reason she couldn’t attend is much simpler: Ms Montagu doesn’t exist. According to a new report from Politico, Kacey Montagu is a pseudonym, most likely used by a gamer on the online platform ROBLOX. Within the platform, where players call themselves “Legos”, the so-called Ms Montagu has served as secretary of state in a government simulation called nUSA. But to DC reporters and to the White House itself, she’s become a real-life journalist. “I really wasn’t surprised she fooled these people,” another nUSA player, “pres. arnie vinick,” told Politico. “She’s been bragging about it for a while.” Since the Covid-19 pandemic began, it’s become common for White House reporters to ask questions on behalf of other journalists. That’s because to enable social distancing, the White House has drastically reduced the number of people allowed in the briefing room – from 49 to 14. To get their questions in, the reporters left out submit their questions digitally or through a courteous pool reporter. And into that loophole stepped Kacey Montagu. The mysterious gamer frequently emailed pool reporters with questions – usually after their first pool report of the day came out, so she knew who they were. In case anyone looked her up before relaying her questions, she set up fake Twitter and LinkedIn accounts, naming herself chief political correspondent for White House News or White House Schedule, neither of which exists.)
