HERALD TIMES
— Indiana University’s diversity loyalty oath – Charles Trzcinka (COMMENT: How soon, if not already, will your employer if you are still employed, the organizations that you are a member of, and the governments that you are under officially get rid of you if you fail/refuse to sign a “diversity statement,” that is, if you fail/refuse to help get rid of those who are law enforcement officers, Trump supporters, conservative, patriotic, Republican, American, White, male, older, heterosexual, married, non-poor, gun owners, Christian, Protestant, Italian American, German American, and/or those whose ancestors have been in America for a long time?)
https://www.heraldtimesonline.com/story/opinion/columns/guest/2021/09/19/indiana-university-diversity-equity-inclusion-employment-oath/8377863002/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: You may not have noticed, but the websites at Indiana University have had a significant change. Instead of promising “equality” they now advertise “equity.” The difference is not trivial. “Equality” means equal opportunity for all regardless of how people were born. “Equity” means the percentage of people with various characteristics in IU’s workforce, especially skin color and gender, need to reflect the same percentage in the population. Nobody voted on this change. Nobody has ever found any evidence that equal opportunity has ever been denied anyone at IU. The goal of “equity” was simply imposed by the administration and various faculty and student groups. How are they enforcing “equity?” A primary tool is to require all new faculty to fill out a “diversity statement.” Candidates for faculty positions are required to describe exactly what they have done in their careers to support the goal of “equity” especially combined with the undefined words “diversity” and “inclusion.” Administrators now carefully comb through these statements to determine if a candidate supports the goals of diversity, inclusion and equity. If they are not sufficiently supportive of, or heaven forbid, are opposed to, these goals they will not be interviewed. One wonders what they would do if a black woman candidate said she is opposed to diversity efforts.)

— ‘Bleak’ future ahead for majority of Americans due to lower education – Leonardo Blair (COMMENT: How has education helped you? The Post Office would not have hired me in 1966 if I had not had a high school diploma (Crete-Monee, 1966). Firestone Stores would not have hired me in 1970, Oldsmobile would not have offered me a job in 1971, and IRS would not have hired me in 1971 if I had not had a job-related bachelor’s degree (NIU-Management, 1970). IRS would not have promoted me in 1972, 1973, or 1974 if I had not been taking job-related graduate courses. GAO would not have hired me in 1980 if I had not had a job-related master’s degree (Loyola, MBA, 1976), a job-related professional certification (CPA, 1979), and almost completed the requirements for a second job-related master’s degree. GAO would not have promoted me in 1986 if I had not had a second job related master’s degree (DePaul, Accounting, 1980), a second job-related professional certification (Certified Internal Auditor, 1981) and a job-related professional license (CPA, Illinois, 1981). GAO would have gotten rid of me much sooner than it did if I had not had not grandfathered into job-related professional certifications in 1990 (Certified Fraud Examiner), 1994 (Certified Government Financial Manager), 1996 (Certified Financial Services Auditor, and 1997 (Forensic Accountant) and a earned a third job-related master’s degree (IIT-Financial Markets and Trading, 1997).)

U.S. NEWS & WORLD REPORT
— Judge Lifts Race, Gender Hiring Quotas for Cincinnati Police. A federal judge has lifted race- and sex-based hiring quotas imposed on the Cincinnati Police Department 40 years ago to fix the department’s lack of diversity. – AP (COMMENT: Democrats and RINOs make Republicans who are White, male, older, and/or non-veteran pay the price of Affirmative Action (AA), Diversity, and Inclusion. Overwhelmingly, my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes who are RINO, White, male, older, and/or non-veteran a) have not had to “pay the price” of AA, Diversity, and Inclusion and/or b) seek to avoid paying the price of AA, Diversity, and Inclusion by helping Democrats and RINOs get rid of Republicans who are White, male, older, and/or non-veteran. Have you paid the price of AA, Diversity, and Inclusion? I have big time. If I had been a Democrat, my Democrat superiors in the federal government would have promoted me into their Senior Executive Service long before I was 40 years old in 1988. I earned a) a job-related bachelor’s degree when I was 21 in 1970 and job-related master’s degrees when I was 27, 31, and 48, b) job-related professional certifications when I was 30, 32, 41, 45, 47, and 48, and c) a job-related professional license when I was 32. But instead, they did not promote me to GS-12 until I was 25, to GS-13 until I was 38, and forced me to take their early retirement “offer” when I was 49 in 1997.)

But that ended in 1971 when I was 22 years old when Oldsmobile withdrew a job offer that I had accepted saying that it had just agreed to stop hiring Whites to settle an EEOC complaint. Firestone Stores fired me for my accepting that offer. That resulted in my accepting a job offer from IRS.)

That income also enabled me to buy a new 1972 Corvette in 1971 and to pay for tuition and books for graduate business courses at Loyola for the previous 9 months.)

— Unemployment Benefits Expire for Millions Without Pushback From Biden – Jim Tankersley and Ben Casselman (COMMENT: What did you do to avoid unemployment? I took what my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes say were bad jobs, jobs that they would never stoop to take. I took many job-related university courses, earned a job-related bachelor’s degree when I was 21 in 1970, and three job-related master’s degrees in 1976, 1980, and 1997. I passed tests to earn two job-related professional certifications in 1979 and 1981, earned a job-related professional license in 1981, and grandfathered into four job-related professional certifications in 1990, 1994, 1996, and 1997. Further, I withstood tremendous efforts by my Democrat superiors to get rid of me. Despite their tremendous efforts, I got promoted to GS-9, currently $59,258/year, in 1972; to GS-11, currently $71,697/year, in 1973; to GS-12, currently $85,935/year, in 1974; and to GS-13, currently $102,188/year, in 1986.)

WALL STREET JOURNAL
— FRONT PAGE: A Generation of American Men Give Up on College: ‘I Just Feel Lost’ The number of men enrolled at two- and four-year colleges has fallen behind women by record levels, in a widening education gap across the U.S. – Douglas Belkin (COMMENT: Ever-increasingly, employers are under ever-increasing pressure to hire, to retain, and to promote young Democrat women, and especially those who are minority, LGBTQ, disabled, not married, Trump-haters, non-Christian, non-Protestant, non-Italian American, non-German American, citizens of foreign countries, and/or those whose ancestors have been in America for a long time. GAO hired me in 1980 because it could not find a qualified Democrat, minority, female, younger person, or veteran who would take the job. IRS hired me in 1971 because it could not find a qualified Democrat, minority, female, or veteran who would take the job. The Post Office hired me in 1966 because it could not find a qualified Democrat, minority, female, or veteran who would take the job.)

(COMMENT: Because Zooming allows members of organizations to participate in meetings maskless, expect that Democrat and RINO organizations will stop Zooming to get rid of their members who do not promote masking. From what I see, the more of the following that you are, the less likely that you promote masking: Trump supporter, conservative, patriotic, Republican, American, White, male, older, heterosexual, married, non-poor, gun owner, Christian, Protestant, Italian American, German American, and/or those whose ancestors have been in America for a long time.)

DAILY HERALD
— What is the first word you use to describe yourself? – Editorial (COMMENT: For me, between 1980 and 1997, it was GAO employee. In 1980, when I was 31 years old, I took a $20,361/year (21%) pay cut in today’s dollars to transfer from IRS to GAO. In 1980, I completed the requirements for a master’s degree in accounting from DePaul. I had earned an MBA from Loyola in 1976 and I had passed the CPA examination on my first attempt in 1979. In 1981, I passed the Certified Internal Auditor Examination on my first attempt and became a licensed CPA. Between 1983, and 1996, I served on the Executive Committee of the Association of Government Accountants Chicago Chapter. In 1986, GAO promoted me to GS-13, currently $102,188/year. In 1990, I became a Certified Fraud Examiner, in 1994, a Certified Government Financial Manager, in 1996, a Certified Financial Services Auditor, and in early 1997, a Forensic Accountant. In early 1997, I completed the requirements for a master’s degree in financial markets and trading from IIT. But in September of 1997, my Democrat GAO superiors made all of the aforesaid worthless by forcing me to take their early retirement “offer.” GAO did not unionize until 2007. If GAO had been unionized in 1997, I might still be a GAO employee.)

They stress that I was a union member while I worked for the Post Office 1966-1969 and for IRS 1971-1980. I transferred to GAO in 1980. GAO did not unionize until 2007. If GAO had been unionized in 1997, I might still be a GAO employee.)

https://www.dailylocal.com/2021/09/04/eck-find-out-where-school-board-candidates-stand-on-crt/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: As the head of a political party in Chester County, one of my duties is to help candidates get elected. But as a Republican, the responsibilities go much further. Our stated mission is to “serve the community of Chester County by promoting and growing the Republican Party and the values upon which it was founded.” These values are crystalized in our vision statement, derived from the Declaration of Independence, “to make the rights of life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness a reality for all.” It is rare that my responsibility to one of our candidates conflicts with our mission and vision. But when it does, principle takes priority over politics.)

EVANSTON PATCH
— Evanston/Skokie School District 65 this week filed a motion to dismiss drama teacher Stacy Deemar’s federal civil rights lawsuit. – Jonah Meadows (COMMENT: My Democrat GAO superiors kept me in a hostile work environment and took many adverse actions against me. They 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.)
https://patch.com/illinois/evanston/drama-teachers-discrimination-suit-falls-woefully-short-d-65
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The filing cited comments from the teacher’s own attorney, who, in a television interview, appeared to admit that her client had not suffered discrimination. . .In her complaint, the drama teacher failed to allege that she was harmed in any way by the district’s race-conscious curriculum, failed to state an actionable civil rights claim and failed to allege that she suffered any adverse action or a hostile work environment, according to a memorandum in support of District 65’s motion.)

— Dishonorable discharges for vaccine refusal would be blocked under congressional proposal – Leo Shane III (COMMENT: In 1997, when I was 49 years old, because I had become an active member in a class action lawsuit that charged my GAO superiors with reverse discrimination, age discrimination, and retaliation, they gave me a dishonorable discharge, that is, they forced me to take their early retirement “offer.” Previously, they had taken many other adverse actions against me. My critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes in the following side with my Democrat GAO superiors: Milton Township Republican Organization, DuPage County Republican Central Committee, Illinois Republican Party, Wheaton, Wheaton Park District, Wheaton Chamber of Commerce, Milton Township, DuPage County, and Illinois. Unsuccessful Republican candidates on ballots in my precinct, their political consultants, their major donors, their fundraisers, their campaign managers, their campaign staff members, and their campaign volunteers side with my Democrat GAO superiors.)
https://www.militarytimes.com/news/pentagon-congress/2021/09/02/dishonorable-dismissals-for-vaccine-refusal-would-be-blocked-under-congressional-proposal/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The troops could still be forced from the ranks, but would receive honorable discharges. Supporters said the idea is to ensure those individuals aren’t given a lifelong mark on their military record because of personal concerns about the vaccine. . .“However, if somebody in good faith in the military says they can’t do it, they shouldn’t be stained for the rest of their lives with a dishonorable discharge.” . . .Amendment sponsor Rep. Mark Green, R-Tenn. and an Army veteran, said that an other-than-honorable dismissal “significantly impacts an individual for the rest of their lives, including future employment … We should not destroy their lives for this.” . . .Troops who refuse can face various types of punishment, including dismissal from the service. “Many Americans have reservations about taking a vaccine that has only been available for less than a year,” the bill language states. “Reports of adverse actions being taken or threatened by military leadership at all levels are antithetical to our fundamental American values.” . . . Other types of reprimand besides dismissals, such as reductions in rank, would still be allowed under the measure.)

As companies keep shifting remote work policies, white-collar office workers want a formal seat at the table. – Shera Avi-Yonah (COMMENT: GAO did not unionize until 2007.

— More Universities, Higher Ed Groups Step Up To Help Afghan Refugees – Michael T. Nietzel (DIERSEN: Of course, Democrats, Libertarians, Greens, Independents, and RINOs will shout at Afghans that Republicans are White supremacists, Nazis, KKK members, haters, racists, sexists, bigots, and even worse things who should be gotten rid of once and for all.)

— Is Your Reputation Congruent To Your Personal Brand? – Jon Michail (DIERSEN: What did you do that limited your employment career? I avoided the draft. I did not major in accounting at UIC and NIU. I did not earn an MBA until I was 27. I did not pass the CPA examination until I was 30. I did not pass the Certified Internal Auditor examination until I was 32. I did not become a Democrat. I did not help my Democrat supervisors and superiors get rid of their employees who were Republican, White, male, and/or non-veteran and 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. I complained about political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, age discrimination, and retaliation. I became an active member of a class action lawsuit that charged my Democrat superiors with reverse discrimination, age discrimination, and retaliation. What did you do that limited your political career? I did not become a RINO. I promote planks in the Republican Party platform that my RINO political superiors want to dump including the traditional marriage/family, right to life, immigration, illegal drugs, Second Amendment, and equal opportunity (no race or gender based preference giving) planks. I did not let my RINO political superiors manipulate me or dominate me. I did not glorify and praise them. I did not pander to them. I did not serve as one of their operatives or dupes. I did not cover up their wrongdoing. I did not give them money.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: Ask your close colleagues whether they have heard anything bad about you recently. Be street-smart. You might not hear anything bad about yourself directly, but always keep open communication between yourself and your close colleagues and stakeholders. That way you’ll know whether they have heard any bad word about you and if you should be concerned. When you come across such a situation, have a plan to not let the situation spiral out of repair. Negative PR that is left unchallenged can be career limiting.)

In today’s dollars, GAO paid me $132,845/year in 1997 when I was 49 years old. In my defense, I earned a) a job-related bachelor’s degree when I was 21 in 1970 and job-related master’s degrees when I was 27, 31, and 48, b) job-related professional certifications when I was 30, 32, 41, 45, 47, and 48, and c) a job-related professional license when I was 32.)

https://www.dailywire.com/news/only-22-of-cable-news-is-news-study
(FROM THE ARTICLE: A new study has found that the vast majority of cable news broadcasts feature opinion, analysis, and spin instead of hard news. Hard news — defined as a statement of facts, or on-the-spot reporting — amounts to just 22.3% of all footage aired on cable news networks. That amounts to nine minutes, 15 seconds of hard news for every hour of broadcasting. Each hour of broadcasting on cable news networks contains nearly twice as much commercial time than hard news. Interviews with newsmakers account for another 16% of broadcast news time.)

— 5 Leadership Strategies to Help Women Prosper in the Workplace – MARCEL SCHWANTES (COMMENT: A GS-15 (currently $142,041-$172,500/year) woman directly controlled the last 8 years of my GAO career while I worked for GAO’s Chicago office group that audited federal financial industry regulators 1989-1997. She determined my job assignments, who I would work with, who I would supervise, my performance expectations, my performance appraisals, my pay-for-performance rankings, and much more. My Democrat GAO superiors stressed to her a) that I had become an active member in a class action lawsuit in 1988 that charged them with reverse discrimination, age discrimination, and retaliation, b) that I was conservative while she was liberal, c) that I was Republican while she was Democrat, d) that she was female while I was male, e) that she was younger than me, f) that she was Jewish while I was baptized, raised, and confirmed as a Missouri Synod Lutheran, g) that she was 100% Russian American while I was 100% German American, g) that she lived in Chicago while I lived in Crete 1948-1972 and in Wheaton since 1978, h) that Republicans had cut GAO’s budget tremendously, i) that GAO was under tremendous pressure from Democrat politicians to get rid of its employees who were Republican, and especially those who were White, male, older, and/or non-veteran like me, j) that one of my subordinates, a Black CPA, wanted my job and my preferred corner office, k) that she should ignore the fact that I had earned a directly job-related master’s degree in financial markets and trading from IIT in 1997, that I was the only member of her group who tool courses in that program, and that I had gotten her appointed to the advisory board of that program, and l) that she should ignore the fact that I had volunteered to work for her while many, if not most, of my GAO supervisors, coworkers, and subordinate refused to work with her or to work for her because she was female, Jewish, younger than they were, and/or because she had more educational and/or professional credentials than they had. She had an MBA from the University of Chicago and she had passed the CPA examination on her first attempt. During August and September of 1997, when I was 49 years old and was 6 years away from being eligible for regular retirement, she made it clear to me that if I did not take GAO’s early retirement “offer,” GAO would make the rest of my GAO career a living hell, that GAO would constructively demote me, that GAO would assign me to work for those who I had previously supervised, that GAO would my make my performance expectations, performance appraisals, and pay-for-performance rankings even more unfair, and that GAO would take even more severe adverse actions against me. After she and the rest of my Democrat GAO Chicago superiors, all of whom were Jewish, succeeded in forcing me to take their early retirement “offer” on September 30, 1997, she gave my Black CPA subordinate my job and my preferred corner office.)
