— ALL ILLINOIS PARENTS DESERVE SCHOOL CHOICE BECAUSE IT WORKS – Paul Vallas (COMMENT: Even though I was never viewed as being college material, my attending Trinity Lutheran Grade School in Crete 1953-1961 and Hope Lutheran Grade School in Park Forest 1961-1962 put me on track to get an ACT score of 24, graduate in the upper 20% of my high school class, earn a bachelor’s degree, earn three master’s degrees, earn six professional certifications, and earn a professional license. My critics/opponents have always falsely hinted/implied/argued/shouted that my parents could sent me to Trinity and Hope because they were filthy rich. In fact, my father never made more than $50,000/year in today’s dollars. He almost always worked second jobs to pay the family’s bills.)

Because my Democrat GAO superiors assigned me to audits of federal financial industry regulators in 1990, I started taking graduate evening finance courses at IIT in 1992 and earned a master’s degree in financial markets and trading from IIT in 1997. Because my IRS employee manual encouraged me to take graduate business and accounting courses, I started taking graduate evening a) business courses at Loyola in 1972 and I earned an MBA from Loyola in 1976 and b) accounting courses at DePaul in 1976 and earned a master’s degree in accounting from DePaul in 1980. Further, on my first attempt, I passed the CPA examination in 1979 and the Certified Internal Auditor examination in 1981. Further, I became a licensed CPA in 1981. Virtually none of my IRS and GAO coworkers did anything close to what I did.)

— Hate-filled Trump-hating Trump-haters ever-increasingly use Pense to promote more hatred against Trump.
https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2024/04/13/mike-pence-trump-conservative-movement/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Mike Pence became vice president by bearing witness to Donald Trump — the thrice-married, six-times bankrupt, once “very pro-choice” real estate promoter — as “a good man” who would “make a great president” for religious and conservative voters. “I’m a Christian, a conservative and a Republican, in that order,” Pence said at his first appearance with his running mate in New York in 2016, driving home the gravity of his judgment. Eight years later, Pence is asking the conservatives who followed his lead to turn away from Trump’s policy prescriptions — becoming the most prominent exile of the former president’s inner circle to speak out in an election season. When Trump suggested he would not push for a federal limit on abortion Monday, Pence called it a “slap in the face to the millions of pro-life Americans who voted for him.” When Trump sent mixed signals on continued Chinese ownership of the social network TikTok, Pence launched a $2 million ad campaign through a nonprofit he founded demanding a Senate vote to force a sale or shutdown of the service.)

— If you were in high school or college today, what would give you an advantage over your peers? – Dave Diersen
http://www.gopillinois.com

— comply with all laws, rules, and regulations,
— focus on studying and getting the best grades that you can,
— know your strengths, weaknesses, and interests and choose your best career path accordingly,
— take responsibility for yourself and not blame your shortcomings on discrimination or on anything else,
— not be sexually active or an LGBTQer, and
— not drink booze, use pot, or do anything else that harms your health.

My father often decried that he was passed over for promotions because he did not have a college degree. That motived me to take college preparatory courses in high school, get an ACT score of 24, graduate in the upper 20% of my class, earn a bachelor’s degree, earn three master’s degrees, earn six professional certifications, and earn a professional license. I did the aforesaid notwithstanding the fact that I was never viewed as being “college material.” Neither of my parents attended college, my father was only the first of my ancestors to earn a high school diploma, my mother never attended high school, I demonstrated no leadership potential, I could not run because I had bone disease, my eyesight could not be corrected to 20/20, and I had partial red/green color blindness. In retrospect, with benefit of hindsight, I would have focused more on studying and getting the best grades that I could and I would have majored in accounting at UIC and NIU, passed the CPA examination much sooner than I did, and became a licensed CPA much soon than I did.

(FROM THE ARTICLE: Fox News host Jesse Watters blamed “the boomers” for the student debt crisis on Tuesday, claiming it was all their fault for pushing their children to go to college and creating a surplus of white-collar workers. During a discussion on The Five about the Biden administration’s newly proposed student debt forgiveness plan, Watters said, “I figured out the reason why we’re in this situation. It’s all the baby boomers’ fault.” He explained: So, in the late 1960s, they’re the biggest generation ever and the only way you could get ahead was to go to college. You wanted to be a white-collar worker. You didn’t want to have to have a job in a factory. So when all of the baby boomers had families, all of the millennial generation, they were made to go to college, whether they wanted to are not. Little Johnny, let’s be honest, probably is not the greatest academic student, but he was forced to go to college, and even if the parents, the boomers, couldn’t afford to send him to college, he was forced to take out loans to go to college so he could be a liberal arts major and get a white-collar job.)

— Congress focuses on work requirements for federal welfare benefits with Illinois hearing – Kevin Bessler (COMMEMT: What did you do to avoid poverty? I focused on education, professional certifications, and a professional license. Even though virtually no one saw me as being “college material,” I nevertheless took college preparatory courses in high school, I got and ACT score of 24, graduated in the upper 20% of my class, earned a bachelor’s degree in business, earned an MBA, passed the CPA examination on my first attempt, earned a master’s degree in accounting, passed the Certified Internal Auditor examination on my first attempt, became a licensed CPA, earned four more professional certifications, and earned a master’s degree in finance. Given the extremely low opinion that my critics/opponents have of intelligence, ability, and judgment, one could argue that because I did the aforesaid, anyone could do the aforesaid.)
https://www.cities929.com/2024/04/09/congress-focuses-on-work-requirements-for-federal-benefits-with-illinois-hearing/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: A Congressional hearing held in Chicago Tuesday explored ways to lift people out of poverty with employment being the main theme. The U.S. House Ways and Means Subcommittee on Work and Welfare held a field hearing Tuesday in Chicago to examine ways to help people get out of poverty through employment. The hearing was called the “Dignity of Work: Lifting Americans Out of Poverty.” “No amount of handouts or government assistance, no matter how well intentioned, can substitute for the intangible benefits and dignity that work brings to individuals and their families,” said Illinois U.S. Rep. Darin LaHood, R-Peoria, the chairman of the committee. Matt Paprocki, president of the Illinois Policy Institute, discussed strategies for reducing poverty that Congress could implement to uplift impoverished individuals, including instituting work requirements with welfare benefits. “Institute work requirements similar to the successful bipartisan reform that was passed in 1996 which lifted millions of people out of poverty,” said Paprocki. Paprocki said the federal government should end the benefits cliff because the system leaves people with impossible choices like providing for their family at a job or reducing work hours and receiving greater benefits from government assistance.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: Pace bus seen in Naperville. Ives wrote the following to accompany the photo. I guess a White House Proclamation wasn’t enough visibility. This bus was seen in Naperville. PACE Suburban Bus is a public system serving suburban Chicago communities. It is heavily supported by taxpayers and less so fare-riders, so how they spend their money is important to everyone. It is unclear at this time if taxpayers paid for the very expensive wrapping on the bus or if they let the sexual identity-obsessed radicals pay for it as advertising. Either way, this messaging is selling sex and shouldn’t be allowed.)

UNION LEADER
— Feds join ranks of employers with generous IVF benefits – Michelle Andrews (COMMENT: Democrats and RINOs ever-increasingly use IVF to promote more hatred against Republicans. I should write a book about how my Democrat and RINO GAO superiors used IVF against me big time. They viciously demonized me, denigrated me, and condemned me as being a DINK and as being a disgusting religious, conservative, Republican, and American hypocrite because my wife and I gave up trying to have children without trying IVF and because we did not adopt or become foster parents. They viciously hinted/implied/argued/shouted that I lied about my and my wife’s efforts to have children. In my defense there were serious problems with my sperm and with my wife’s eggs. My Democrat GAO superiors knew that full-well. In my book, I would focus on my Democrat GAO superiors who had the most children, who complained the most about the cost of raising children, and/or who had adopted. I would focus on those whose spouses had little or no income.)

(COMMENT: My critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes blame me for all their problems, for all your problems, for all my problems, and for all of everyone’s problems.

I admit that I should have tried harder to get a better ACT score. I admit that I avoided the Vietnam War draft. I admit that I should have majored in accounting instead of management. I admit that I should have earned the master’s degrees in business, accounting, and finance that I did much sooner. I admit that I should have tried harder to get better scores on the CPA and Certified Internal Auditor examinations and passed those examinations much sooner. I admit that I should have qualified myself to be a licensed CPA much sooner. I admit that I spent too much money on new cars when I was 17, 19, 20, 23, 25, and 29. I admit that I complained about political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, and age discrimination. I admit that I became an active member in a class action lawsuit in 1988 when I was 40 years old that charged my superiors with reverse discrimination, age discrimination, and retaliation. I admit that I have always promoted conservative principles. I admit that I have always promoted the Republican Party platform. I admit that I have never tried to hide the fact a) that I was baptized, raised, and confirmed as a Missouri Synod Lutheran, b) that I am 100% German American, c) that my ancestors have been in America since 1844, d) that I lived in Crete 1948-1972, and e) that I have lived in Wheaton since 1978.

CHICAGO TRIBUNE
— Evanston City Council to discuss hosting temporary migrant shelter – ALEX HULVALCHICK (COMMENT: Under the Democrats and under the RINOs: Evanston today, your municipality tomorrow.)
https://www.chicagotribune.com/2024/04/08/evanston-city-council-to-discuss-hosting-temporary-migrant-shelter/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The Evanston City Council on Monday is set to discuss applying for Cook County funding to provide temporary shelter for displaced migrants sent to Chicagoland from the southern border. The funding is available for the housing of “new arrivals,” defined by the county as “an individual who crossed the Mexico/U.S. border on or after August 1, 2022, with the intent to stay permanently, and who does not possess any permanent or interim U.S. legal status (which does not include being in parole status), such as legal permanent residency, a student or work visa, etc.” Funding can be used to pay for rent, repairs and improvements to make sites operational for use as temporary shelters including food, wraparound and resettlement services. Estimated operating costs would reach approximately $2 million, not including necessary repairs. Applications for the funding are due April 19. According to a memo in the Monday meeting agenda, the city hasn’t previously considered applying for the funding because it wasn’t aware of any properties vacant or safe enough that would suffice. The city was notified on March 28 of a possible site with city staff and the Evanston Fire Department inspecting the property Wednesday. This site, located at 1020 Church Street, is a two-story office space with enough open space and smaller offices to house anywhere from 60 to 65 individuals along with a kitchenette, two shower stalls and multiple restrooms. Before being able to take anyone in, the building will require several repairs including installation of a fire sprinkler system wherever people are expected to sleep, more bathroom and shower stalls, upgrades to electrical and HVAC systems and more. Another possible site mentioned in the memo is the soon-to-be vacant Morton Civic Center, where city operations are currently housed. City offices are set to move to a leased office downtown starting in July and could house more people than the office building at 1020 Church Street. Since the city owns the building, grant funding wouldn’t have to be used to pay rent and could be used solely for repairs that are needed in the building. Those repairs were the driving force behind moving city operations downtown as the city wasn’t open to spending the money needed to bring the building up to par. The city reached out to Connections for the Homeless, a local homelessness nonprofit, to take on the role of managing the shelter. Connections’ Director of Communications Eric Ruder said the nonprofit welcomes conversations about partnering with the city on the shelter. Connections CEO Betty Bog said it’s important to take every opportunity to build more shelter to supplement the severe housing shortage. “Many in the Evanston community and staff have been searching for ways to assist new arrivals,” read the memo, “Applying for grant dollars to convert space into a temporary shelter could move the City toward managing a transitional shelter at 1020 Church indefinitely — on the one hand, this could be an asset to the City … on the other hand, it could place meaningful strain on the City.”)

https://southernillinoisnow.com/2024/04/09/judge-releases-questionnaire-for-jury-selection-process-in-trump-hush-money-trial/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Prosecutive jurors will be asked if they have ever attended one of Trump’s rallies, if they belong to groups like the Proud Boys or Antifa, or if they volunteered with a political entity associated with the former president. “Do you have any strong opinions or firmly held beliefs about whether a former president may be criminally charged in a state court?” one question asks. “Do you have any feelings about how Mr. Trump is being treated in this case?” Other questions ask if prosecutive jurors have read any of Trump’s books, can set aside their past knowledge of the case, or have opinions on the legal limits related to political contributions. “Do you have any strong opinions or firmly held beliefs about former President Donald Trump or the fact that he is a current candidate for president that would interfere with your ability to be a fair or impartial juror?” another question asked. Jurors will also be asked standard preliminary questions, including their marital status, employment status, hobbies, criminal history and potential scheduling conflicts. Merchan, borrowing from an approach taken for the Trump Organization criminal trial, opted to excuse any jurors who self-identify as unfair or partial.)

— Biden plans to cancel student loan debt, 23 million Americans may be impacted. — Steve Holland and Stephanie Kelly (COMMENT: My critics/opponents have always stressed that I could never had gotten a student loan. They stress that I was never viewed as being “college material.” They stress that I only just barely made it into the upper 20% of my high school class and that my ACT score was only 24. They stress that I demonstrated no leadership potential while I was in high school. They stress that I washed dishes during my junior and senior years and the summer in between. They stress that after I graduated, I cleaned golf shoes, chipped slag, pumped gasoline, and delivered mail. They stress that neither of my parents attended college, that my father was only the first of my ancestors to earn a high school diploma, and that my mother never attended high school.)

— In retrospect, with benefit of hindsight, what would you have done sooner? I would have majored in accounting and passed the CPA examination and became a licensed CPA sooner. As it was, I did not take and pass the CPA examination until I was 30 years old and I did not become a licensed CPA until I was 32. By then, because of my bad demographics (conservative, Republican, White, male, non-veteran, Protestant, 100% German American, and my ancestors have been in America since 1844), I was much “too old” to have a successful career in accounting. My Democrat IRS and GAO superiors made that crystal clear. All my coworkers who they promoted over me were Democrats a) who had less work experience than I had, b) who had less education than I had, c) who had no professional certifications or fewer than I had, and/or d) who had no professional license like the one I had. Overwhelmingly, they were minority, female, younger than me, veteran, non-Protestant, non-German American, and/or had ancestors who had not been in America for a long time.

DAILY MAIL
— Ex-Chicago mayor Lori Lightfoot is hired on $400-PER-HOUR contract to investigate ‘America’s worst mayor’ amid embezzlement accusations after she admitted $2M hole in taxpayer funds from small Illinois town. Self-described ‘Super Mayor’ Tiffany Henyard, 40, has been accused of embezzling taxpayer funds and retaliating against a victim of sexual assault. Lightfoot – who was ousted as mayor of Chicago last year – was approved by the village to investigate Henyard’s alleged corruption at the cost of $400 per hour. She may not get very far, however, as Henyard’s mayoral powers extend to potentially vetoing the probe. – STEPHEN M. LEPORE

Let’s be respectful of each other at work. – Editorial (COMMENT: While I worked for the Democrats who ran GAO’s Chicago office 1980-1997, virtually all of my superiors, supervisors, coworkers, and subordinates were Democrats. Toward the end, there were virtually no Republicans. If I was still working there, they would be making my life even more of a living hell for me because I have always been a conservative Republican, and on top of that. I am White, male, old (born in 1948), draft avoider, Protestant,100% German American, my ancestors have been in America since 1844, Crete resident 1948-1972, and Wheaton resident since 1978. GAO is less than a shell of what it once was because of massive Republican-led budget cuts during the 1980s and 1990s.)

— No Jobs For Illegal Aliens, Period – MARK MECKLER (COMMENT: What bad jobs have you had? According to my critics/opponents, all the jobs that I had were bad jobs that they would never stoop to take. Will illegal aliens take the bad jobs that I had? I a) did yard work 1962-1964, b) delivered newspapers 1962-1966, c) washed dishes 1964-1966, d) cleaned golf shoes, chipped slag, and pumped gasoline in 1966, 1971, and 1972, e) delivered mail 1966-1969, and f) worked on an automobile assembly line in 1970.)
https://dailycaller.com/2024/04/07/mark-meckler-job-program-americans-illegal-aliens/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: I am weary of hearing the trope that we need more illegal aliens because “Americans won’t work those jobs.” My bet is that most Americans share this sentiment as well. Amidst a myriad of concerns about illegal immigration, one prominent worry among Americans is the potential adverse effects on the U.S. workforce. There is apprehension that undocumented migrants could potentially displace native-born workers, leading to job loss and further exacerbating the nation’s tax burden. The media and the left love to dismiss such considerations as fearful, xenophobic, and bigoted, arguing instead that alien workers fill a vital gap in the American workforce. But these concerns, nevertheless, are valid. To argue that the American people refuse to work jobs that must alternatively be filled by undocumented workers is nothing less than a slanderous attack against the natives of this country. Americans will work these jobs… when the pay rates go to market rates and are not depressed by illegal-alien rates.)

I took and passed standardized tests virtually every year 1953-1997 to earn a) a grade school diploma in 1962, b) high school diploma in 1966, c) bachelor’s degree in 1970, d) MBA in 1976, e) master’s degree in accounting in 1980, and f) master’s degree in finance in 1997. I got an ACT score of 24 and I graduated in the upper 20% of my high school class. I passed the CPA examination on my first attempt in 1979 and the Certified Internal Auditor examination on my first attempt in 1981. I passed the Postal employment test in 1966 and the Federal Service Entrance Examination in 1970. I wonder how much easier Democrats have made the aforesaid standardized tests to enable Democrats to pass them.)

All of them spent a tremendous amount of their time and money raising their children. Almost all of their spouses had little or no income. Ever-increasingly, they painted themselves as having been passed over for promotions because they lacked job-related masters degrees, professional licenses, and/or professional licenses. I did not marry until I was 29, my wife always had good-paying jobs, we gave up trying to have children, we did not adopt, and we did not become foster parents. Ever-increasingly, my Democrat superiors and supervisors used the aforesaid against me, they ever-increasingly hinted/implied/argued/shouted that the aforesaid gave me tremendous unfair advantages over them and over everyone else and that if I had gotten married earlier and had children like they did, I would not have been able to earn job-related a) master’s degrees when I was 27, 31, and 48, b) professional certifications when I was 30, 32, 41, 45, 47, and 48, and c) a professional license when I was 32.

Ever-increasingly, under the Democrats and under the RINOs, career advancement is more difficult if not impossible for those who share my demographics. The Democrats who ran the Post Office when I was 16 in 1966, IRS when I was 22, and GAO when I was 31 hired me despite my bad demographics, but if I was 18, 22, or 31 today, they would not hire me today.

The Democrats who ran GAO in 1986 promoted me when I was 38 despite my bad demographics, but if I was 38 today, they would not promote me today.)

— DEI exists to get rid of Republicans who are conservative, White, male, older, non-veteran, Protestant, German American, and/or have ancestors who have been in America for a long time. My critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes promote DEI. I should write a book about them.

My Democrat GAO never promoted me beyond GS-13 even after I had earned a master’s degree in accounting from DePaul, passed the Certified Internal Auditor examination on my first attempt, became a licensed CPA, became a Certified Fraud Examiner, Government Financial Manager, Financial Services Auditor, and Forensic Accountant, and earned a master’s degree in financial markets and trading from IIT.

FAST COMPANY
— Nearly 40% of U.S. employees don’t trust their coworkers – STEPHANIE VOZZA (COMMENT: Virtually all my superiors, supervisors, coworkers, and subordinates were Democrats who destroyed Republicans to advance themselves. I should write a book about them. I would focus on those who had the most demographics that vote for Republicans including White, male, older, German American, married, and/or had ancestors who had been in America for a long time. Because they had those demographics, they were under even more pressure to destroy Republicans.)

— Change your mindset to avoid being layoff – STEPHANIE VOZZA (COMMENT: My Democrat superiors in the federal government wasted my career and forced me to take their early retirement “offer” in 1997 when I was 49 years old. What would I have had to do to avoid that? Became a Democrat. Happily given even more preference to my Democrat subordinates who were minority, female, younger, veteran, and/or had ancestors who had not been in America for a long time. Helped them get rid of their few remaining Republican employees. Not make my Democrat superiors, supervisors, coworkers, and subordinates “look bad” by earning more job-related master’s degrees, professional certifications, and/or professional licenses than they had.)

GOVERNMENT EXECUTIVE
— Fixing Veterans’ Preference Can Fix Federal Hiring – Angela Bailey and Jeffrey Neal (COMMENT: I am ashamed to say that I avoided the Vietnam War draft. While I worked for the Democrats who ran the federal government for almost 30 years, they used that against me big time to turn my many Democrat superiors, supervisors, coworkers, and subordinates against me who were veterans. They stressed what I would not have been able to do the following as soon or if ever if I had not avoided the draft: a) buying new cars (1967, 1968, 1971, 1973, and 1978), b) going on vacations to Florida (1969 and 1970), c) earning college degrees (1970, 1976, 1980), d) buying real estate (1972, 1974, 1976, 1980, 1984), e) going on vacations to the Bahamas, Mexico, Jamacia, and Hawaii (1973-1976), f) getting married (1979), g) earning professional certifications (1979 and 1981), h) earning a professional license (1981), i) etc.)

I earned a master’s degree in accounting from DePaul in 1980. I passed the Certified Internal Auditor examination on my first attempt and became a licensed CPA in 1981. But because I am a White male, employers saw me as being far too old to have a successful career in accounting. I should write a book about that.)

— Rhode Island GOP party goes ‘all volunteer’ after executive director steps down. What that means. – PATRICK ANDERSON (COMMENT: Who is the conservative outreach/volunteer coordinator for the Illinois Republican Party?)
https://www.aol.com/ri-gop-party-goes-volunteer-191219620.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The Rhode Island Republican Party’s executive director has stepped down and, at least in the short term, will not be replaced. Jesus Solorio, who was hired as state GOP executive director in March 2022, announced Monday that he had left the party to form his own political consultancy. “It’s been an honor serving as the Rhode Island GOP executive director for the past two years,” Solorio wrote in a news release, which described the specialty of his new firm, Homan Street Strategies, as “empowering candidates with the precise tools and strategies needed to turn blue seats red.” During his time at the Rhode Island Republican Party, Solorio saw very few blue seats turn red in Rhode Island as Democrats maintained their grip on statewide offices and most city halls and commanding majorities in the General Assembly. State party Chairman Joe Powers Monday said the organization had “not put in a plan to fill the position straight away” and would be returning to the all-volunteer arrangement that was in place from 2018 until Solorio’s hiring in 2022. Solorio came to Rhode Island from Illinois, where he had been the Latino outreach/volunteer coordinator for then-candidate and future one-term governor Bruce Rauner before launching his own unsuccessful campaign for Congress. Solorio was alerted to the Rhode Island job by Ashley Kalus, a fellow Rauner campaign alum who won the Republican nomination for governor of Rhode Island in 2022, but lost to Gov. Dan McKee. More recently, Solorio came under pressure in January when the party struggled to collect the necessary signatures to get all Republican presidential candidates on the state primary ballot. The four Republicans challenging presumptive GOP nominee Donald Trump did ultimately qualify for the primary ballot.)

Beneath the surface, posturing lies a deception that extends beyond the mere games of representation and power in the United States. The Democrats’ emphasis on immigration is not a mere coincidence or a short-term political maneuver. Rather, it is deeply rooted in their long-term vision of reshaping the demographic and political landscape of the United States. By advocating for more inclusive immigration policies, the Democrats aim to solidify their support base and gain a strategic advantage in future elections.)

— Washington Post takes aim at ‘Star-Spangled Banner’ writer Francis Scott Key after namesake Baltimore bridge collapse. Because of his mixed record on racial issues, monuments to Key have been defaced, and critics have called for institutions named after him to be renamed. – Madeline Martin
https://thepostmillennial.com/washington-post-takes-aim-at-star-spangled-banner-writer-francis-scott-key-after-namesake-baltimore-bridge-collapse
(FROM THE ARTICLE: On Wednesday, however, the Washington Post decided that there was a more important discussion to be had. You see the bridge collapse and the deaths and the horror and thee economic impact don’t translate to racial injustice, inclusivity or reparations and that simply would not suffice for the newspaper darling of the leftist gestapo. And so it followed that the Washington Post frankensteined together their own special contribution to the annals of history that will one day recount the tragedy. The issue here was the man who the bridge was named after, one Francis Key Scott. This was the real meat of the story, the rest just gristle and unsavory bits to be butchered out by WaPo the Woke. And so by Wednesday, the Washington Post’s London correspondent Annabelle Timsit had penned an article titled “Who was Francis Scott Key, controversial poet the bridge is named after?” Francis Scott Key is best known for writing the poem that became America’s national anthem, “The Star-Spangled Banner.” He wrote the lyrics the morning after an 1814 British attack on Fort McHenry, which is right by the collapsed bridge. “As The Washington Post previously reported, ‘The Star-Spangled Banner’ did not become the national anthem until more than a century after it was written because of controversy, partly over Key’s racist views,” the Post wrote. “One section of the poem’s third verse, in particular, has come under scrutiny from those who say it was intended to mock or threaten African Americans who escaped slavery to join the British forces, after being promised land in exchange for their service,” the paper continued. The verse in question reads, “No refuge could save the hireling and slave, From the terror of flight or the gloom of the grave, And The Star-Spangled Banner in triumph doth wave, O’er the land of the free and the home of the brave.” The Post also reminded readers that Key was a slave owner who opposed abolition and made racist remarks about black people. However, the paper also acknowledged that critics have pointed out that as a lawyer, Key defended several slaves, and he freed several of his own slaves. Because of his mixed record on racial issues, monuments to Key have been defaced, and critics have called for institutions named after him to be renamed. In 2017, vandals defaced the Francis Scott Key Monument in Baltimore with red paint and spray-painted “Racist Anthem” and “blood on his hands.”)

Murkowski is among the seven Republican senators who voted to convict Trump in his second impeachment trial after the Jan. 6, 2021, Capitol attack and became a target for Trump and his allies.)

Elizabeth A. Duke jumped bail nearly four decades ago and has never been captured and prosecuted for the Capitol bombing, nor has she faced charges for her role in bombing the Navy Yard and Fort McNair, or plotting to bomb other federal buildings, among them the Old Executive Office Building next to the White House and the Naval Academy in Annapolis.

GOVERNMENT EXECUTIVE
— Applications for revenue-generating IRS jobs are ‘far below’ agency goals. The tax agency is facing major hurdles with its big ambitions for hiring to slash uncollected taxes. – ERIC KATZ (COMMENT: I worked for the Democrats who ran IRS 1971-1980. GAO audits IRS. I transferred from IRS to GAO in 1980. I should write a book about a) how my Democrat IRS superiors wasted my career and b) how my Democrat GAO superiors wasted my knowledge of IRS, wasted my career, and forced me to take their early retirement “offer” in 1997 when I was 49 years old. 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. I passed the Certified Internal Auditor examination on my first attempt in 1981. I became a licensed CPA in 1981. I earned four more professional certifications in 1990, 1994, 1996, and 1997. I earned a master’s degree in finance from IIT in 1997.)
https://www.govexec.com/workforce/2024/03/applications-revenue-generating-irs-jobs-are-far-below-agency-goals/394987/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The agency has made some progress—it has eliminated barriers to posting job openings—but is still facing headwinds that are largely outside of its control. Revenue agents for those roles have “yet to be hired and onboarded,” the IG said. “External applications that have been received are far below the IRS targeted goal and there is an overall shortage of individuals with the desired background and experience,” TIGTA found. A previous IG report found that despite its new funding, revenue agent staffing had actually decreased by 8%, or more than 650 employees, between the end of fiscal 2019 and March 2023. IRS had planned to bring on 3,833 revenue agents in fiscal 2023, but in the first six months officials had recruited just 34. IRS officials are aware of the problem and are attempting to develop solutions. The agency has completed an enterprise-wide recruiting strategy for revenue agents and is “exploring options” to better promote related job announcements. “We are making remarkable progress in our efforts to transform the IRS and the pace of change is accelerating as we use the historic funding from the IRA,” said David Padrino, IRS’ chief transformation and strategy officer. He noted that overall, the agency has completed 45% of its fiscal 2023 milestones, while 55% were underway and just 2% had not yet been addressed. Still, some of IRS’ shortfalls may be systemic. Erin Collins, the National Taxpayer Advocate, warned in a recent report the IRS Human Capital Office “lacks the necessary resource investments,” including IT and staffing, to keep up with the agency’s new hiring demands. Citing the pay gap between federal and private sector employees, the taxpayer advocate said it would be “unreasonable to expect the IRS to consistently out-recruit the competition.” The agency has maintained expedited hiring authority, but even when using it in fiscal 2023 the average time between a job announcement and a start date was 110 days. Additionally, the Government Accountability Office found last month IRS is failing to detail its current and future needs, where skill gaps exist and its strategy for filling them. It has broad hiring plans and types of roles for which it will hire, but has not specified which workers would go toward high-income/high-wealth audits. IRS is also facing political headwinds. Congressional Republicans have decried the hiring as a “power grab,” and the agency itself has warned its workforce could be facing a “cliff” in several years when IRA funds are set to expire. Sen. Rick Scott, R-Fla., even wrote a letter to Americans imploring them not to apply for the forthcoming jobs. Collins suggested IRS invest more in using the Pathways and Presidential Management Fellows programs to recruit employees. She also said the agency should consider contracting with recruiting firms to help it bring in candidates for higher-grade positions. Collins noted IRS has made significant gains in hiring for customer service positions—the agency completed a total of 34% more hiring actions in fiscal 2023 than the previous year—but said the outstanding problems threaten what it is trying to accomplish. “If the IRS does not make significant changes, these staffing shortages will compound and pose significant threats to federal tax administration and taxpayer rights,” the taxpayer advocate said. The challenges do not come as a surprise: Collins and former officials—including Danny Werfel, who has since once again become IRS commissioner—warned when the IRA was passed that fulfilling the agency’s staffing goals would present significant difficulties. IRS is also looking to develop flexible work options, but TIGTA found in its new report that progress in that area has been delayed. The agency is still looking to onboard a project lead in that area and is determining what is feasible based on other agency practices. The Treasury Department last month mandated that employees work from their offices at least 50% of the time. The agency is also creating a pulse survey to establish a baseline on employee morale, while officials have presented to the Transformation and Strategy Office three options for improving employee recognition and educating managers about rewards for staff.)

RASMUSSEN REPORTS

My critics/opponents blame me and blame my newsletters for their problems, for my problems, for your problems, and for everyone’s problems.

— Retired grandmother still owes $108,000 in student debt 40 years after taking out loan. – Mike Lowe (COMMENT: Did you take out a student loan? I did not even try because I would not have gotten one. I only just barely made it into the upper 20% of my high school class and my ACT score was only 24. Further, I was not viewed as being college material. Neither of my parents had attended college. My father was only the first of my ancestors to earn a high school diploma. My mother never attended high school. I could not run because I had a bone disease. My eyesight could not be corrected to 20/20. I had partial red/green color blindness. I demonstrated no leadership potential because I was a part-time dishwasher during my junior and senior years in high school and a full-time dishwasher during the summer in between. So because of the aforesaid and because my parents lacked money, I worked my way through college. But because I worked too many hours, my GPA suffered. I would not have been able to graduate debt-free from NIU with a bachelor’s degree in management in 1970 if I had not worked all the part-time hours that I could for the Park Forest Post Office 1966-1969 and if my parents had not provided me with room and board while I completed courses at UIC 1966-1968, weekends during my first semester at NIU in 1969, and the summer of 1969. I acknowledge that I would not have had to work so many hours washing dishes and delivering mail if I had not used what I earned to buy a new cars in 1966, 1967, and 1968, but I used those cars to get to/from work and classes.)
https://www.kron4.com/news/national/retired-grandmother-still-owes-108000-in-student-debt-40-years-after-taking-out-loan/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: In 1986, Nancy Peter took out a student loan to finish her psychology degree at Mundelein College in Chicago. Almost four decades later, she’s still paying it back. “The interest compounds and compounds, so every penny I don’t pay, it goes sky high,” she said. Peter took out another loan to go to graduate school at Loyola University and has worked as a therapist for nearly 40 years. But the now 71-year-old retired grandmother of two owes six-figures, more than triple the initial amount of money she borrowed. . .According to the U.S. Department of Education, 43 million Americans owe a collective $1.3 trillion in student loan debt. The average borrower owes $37,000. “This will sound terrible,” Peter said. “But I have a paper of different ways you can have your loan forgiven, and the only one I fit into was I would have to die.” Last year, the U.S. Supreme Court struck down the Biden administration’s plan to forgive hundreds of billions of dollars in student loan debt.)

— Biden loves HIS gas-guzzler (1967 Corvette). Why doesn’t he get that Americans love THEIRS? – Rich Lowry (COMMENT: I have owned my 1972 Corvette since October 14, 1971.)
https://nypost.com/2024/03/26/opinion/ev-pushing-joe-biden-knows-gas-powered-cars-are-still-tops/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: One of Joe Biden’s notable digressions when getting deposed by special counsel Robert Hur was about driving his beloved 1967 Corvette Stingray convertible. Which wasn’t surprising — the president genuinely loves his car. And why not? It’s a thing of beauty and, for its time, was a splendid feat of engineering. A paradox of the Biden administration is that the old-school car enthusiast is — in the name of the future and saving the planet — waging a war on the internal-combustion-engine cars that he so admires and that have helped define American life over the last 100 years. The internal-combustion-engine automobile ranks as one of the modern world’s most transformative innovations. Prior to the advent of trains, travel by land was an absolute misery, even for the wealthy and privileged. Then the car, in effect, took the train and put it in the hands of individuals. It was a revolutionary leap ahead for personal freedom and mobility. It changed where we live (catalyzing the growth of the suburbs) and how we work (making it easier to commute). It obviously made it possible to go more places and gave rise to new types of business catering to a newly footloose population, including motels and fast-food restaurants. It knit the country together via a road network that facilitated untold economic activity and created the auto-manufacturing industry, as well as industries providing parts and fuel for cars. To an unusual extent, people feel bonded to their cars. There are car enthusiasts but not enthusiasts for other 20th-century implements that changed our way of life. No one speaks wistfully of the refrigerator they owned 40 years ago or reads fan magazines devoted to plumbing. Even for consumers who aren’t car devotees, what to buy is an intensely personal decision; this is why there is a dizzying array of brands offering an immense range of choices. The Biden administration’s push to get people into electric vehicles is running directly into the chief advantage of internal-combustion-engine cars, which is the sheer convenience. People don’t really have “range anxiety,” the fear their electric vehicle will run out of its charge. Electric cars have acquired more range now, and most people aren’t driving 300 miles in a single trip, regardless. No, it’s the time it takes to charge an electric car compared with the ease of a trip to the gas station that is the issue. Gas stations already exist (about 145,000 of them with a million gas pumps), and no one had to subsidize their creation. They are convenient and cost-effective and make economic sense. Making charging stations available on a comparable scale will present formidable obstacles. As Mark Mills of the National Center for Energy Analytics points out in a paper on electric cars, transporting the large amounts of energy at the necessary scale using electric energy via wires and transformers is much more expensive than doing it with oil via pipelines and tanks. Installing the superchargers necessary to make charging somewhat rapid — but still slower than gassing up — will require “a grid power demand comparable to a small town or steel mill.” This isn’t to say electric cars aren’t attractive to some consumers, especially those with their own garages for overnight charging and the resources to spend on a fun, interesting second or third car. Tesla has made major inroads in the upscale category. Good for it. More choice is better. An all-electric-car future is very far off, though, and internal-combustion-engine automobiles aren’t embarrassing artifacts of the past. Their cost, convenience, reliability, and size — more than half of automobiles sold in America are SUVs — make them hugely appealing. They are also getting constant upgrades. According to Mills, since 1975, “the average automobile today has 100 more horsepower, weighs 1,000 pounds more, and has doubled in fuel efficiency.” Joe Biden’s Corvette is now an antique, but the basic technology is as important, and incredibly user-friendly, as ever.)

— ‘Ronna McDaniel will not be an NBC News contributor,’ NBCUniversal News Group chairman announces. – ALEX NITZBERG (COMMENT: What opposition have you had to face? I should write a book about the tremendous opposition that I faced from my Democrat GAO superiors, supervisors, coworkers, and subordinates when I transferred from IRS to GAO in 1980 when I was 31 years old. They forced me to suffer a $22,966/year (21%) pay cut in today’s dollars to transfer. I faced tremendous opposition mainly because I was a conservative Republican who opposed political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, and age discrimination, but also because I did not help GAO meet any of its Affirmative Action quotas and because I did not start my career with GAO like almost all of them did and because I transferred in with almost 12 years of federal seniority. They were furious when I completed the requirements for a master’s degree in accounting from DePaul in 1980, I passed the Certified Internal Auditor examination on my first attempt in 1981, and I became a licensed CPA in 1981. I had passed the CPA examination on my first attempt in 1979 and I had earned an MBA from Loyola in 1976. GAO audits IRS. 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 $97,079-$110,020/year. They wasted my knowledge of IRS. They did not assign me to audits of IRS for 6 years. But then, after just 3 years, they threw me off audits of IRS.)
