http://www.lawndalenews.com/2023/01/illinois-updates-cpa-exam-eligibility-reduces-credit-hour-requirement/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Effective Jan. 1, 2023, prospective certified public accountants in Illinois will only need to present proof of having 120 eligible semester credit hours, versus 150, and a baccalaureate degree to apply to sit for the Uniform CPA Exam, the universal exam all certified public accountant (CPA) candidates must pass to earn the distinguished CPA credential.

— US Big Three auto companies commit to making cars that people don’t want – Stephen Moore (COMMENT: Ever-increasingly, the US Big Three do whatever the Democrat Party wants them to do.)
https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/opinion/columnists/auto-companies-cars-electric-vehicles-tesla-ford-gm-toyota
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The American auto companies, which are so often bailed out by U.S. taxpayers, have made a pronouncement that they intend, in the next few years, to stop making and assembling gas-engine cars. You know. The kind of cars that Henry Ford started rolling off the assembly line 100 years ago at the Ford Motor Company in Detroit. Henceforth, virtually all American-made cars will be electric vehicles. Perhaps the corporate brass in Michigan’s auto executive offices thinks this makes them good global citizens. They are all in on the fight against global warming. They may be making a political bet that the federal government and more states are going to go the way of California and eventually mandate that every car produced must be battery-operated. But there is also a good deal of virtue-signaling going on here by the folks at Ford and General Motors. It’s a free country, and if they want to start rolling millions of EVs off the assembly lines, so be it. But it’s one thing to make cars that appeal to members of the Sierra Club and quite another to produce automobiles that the typical buyer wants. And guess what? So far, most people have turned a decisive thumbs-down on EVs. (Incidentally, I’m personally agnostic on electric vehicles. I’ve driven Teslas, and they are wonderful smooth-driving vehicles. But they have problems too, such as getting stranded with no juice in the middle of nowhere.) So far, only about 6% of new cars sold are electric vehicles. And polls show that only about half of Americans prefer an EV over a traditional car. Much larger majorities oppose the government telling us what kind of car we can buy. Incidentally, the one state that far outpaces the rest of the country in EV sales (with about 1 in 3 new car sales being battery-operated) is California. But, hey, Detroit: Sorry, California isn’t the country. All of this is to say that there’s a decent chance the American auto companies’ shift to all EVs is going to fail. This could even be the most epic failure for American car companies since Ford introduced the Edsel. (For youngsters, that was the 1950s ugly car that nobody wanted to buy.) Meanwhile, and this is the especially sad part of the story, at least one company realizes the tomfoolery of making only electric cars. And that company is the Japanese automaker Toyota. Akio Toyoda, the president and grandson of the founder of the giant Japanese car company, is going to buck the trend. “People involved in the auto industry are largely a silent majority,” Toyoda recently told news reporters. “That silent majority is wondering whether EVs are really OK to have as a single option. But they think it’s the trend, so they can’t speak out loudly.”)

— Majority of McCarthy’s defectors received thousands in campaign funds during midterms – Cami Mondeaux
https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/news/majority-of-mccarthy-defectors-received-thousands-campaign-funds
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The majority of the Republicans opposing Rep. Kevin McCarthy’s (R-CA) bid for House speaker received a total of $120,000 in campaign funds from the party leader’s political action committee during the midterm cycle, according to finance filings. At least 20 Republicans have voted against McCarthy’s nomination to become the next speaker, pitting the former minority leader against several members of his party. Of the 20 Republicans, 14 of them received a total of $120,000 from the Majority Committee alone, according to the Federal Election Committee. When taking into account all political groups affiliated with McCarthy, the group received a total of more than $1 million to boost campaigns.)

— Kevin McCarthy Drama Underscores Impotence of Republican Elite – Josh Hammer
https://www.creators.com/read/josh-hammer/01/23/kevin-mccarthy-drama-underscores-impotence-of-republican-elite
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Kevin McCarthy, first elected to Congress in 2006, has been an establishment figure since the day he arrived in Washington, D.C. His political philosophy and guiding principles are to this day largely unknown, to the perhaps-dubious extent they exist at all. True, he is a well-known prolific fundraiser who knows how to work a room full of donors — but what exactly has that accomplished for either the GOP or the conservative cause, of late? McCarthy is best understood as an empty suit and a quintessential Swamp creature — someone who lives and breathes the D.C. game, who is cozy with K Street and whose main lodestar is cutting deals and expending political capital in order to boost his own political fortunes.)

— COMMENT: Democrats say “As speaker bid falters, mixed views of McCarthy in hometown.” What do those in your hometown think of you? Virtually no one in my hometown of Crete knows of me anymore. I lived in Crete 1948-1972. My brother lived in Crete 1953-2022. My father lived in Crete 1922-1969. My mother lived in Crete 1945-2016. My ancestors on my father’s side lived in Crete since 1854. The demographics of Crete have changed dramatically since I lived there. Then again, the demographics of Wheaton have changed dramatically since my wife and I have lived here since 1978.

— Fox News host calls GOP mutineers against McCarthy ‘insurrectionists’ (COMMENT: Expect that ever-increasingly, hate-filled Trump-hating Trump-haters will call you an insurrectionist and even worse things if you do not promote hatred against Trump and against those who share Trump’s demographics: conservative, Republican, White, male, older, heterosexual, married, home owner, gun owner, non-poor, non-drinker, non-veteran, Protestant, German American, and/or those whose ancestors have been in America for a long time.)

— COMMENT: Democrats say “McCarthy says concessions to hard-line Republicans won’t make him weaker speaker.” What concessions have you been asked to make? My anti-conservative RINO critics/opponents who ended the following never asked me to make any concessions because they knew that I would not make any: my roles as the a) Republican fundraiser for Wheaton Independence Day parades and fireworks, b) TAPROOT Republicans of Illinois chairman, c) Wheaton Chamber of Commerce Government Affairs Committee member, d) Milton Township Republican Organization webmaster, e) Illinois Center Right Coalition Steering Committee member, and f) American Association of Political Consultants Midwest Chapter board member. In 1997, my anti-conservative anti-Republican Jewish Democrat GAO superiors hinted that they might let me work for another 6 years until I was eligible for regular retirement if I a) agreed to be constructively demoted and to work for my Black subordinate who they had turned against me or b) agreed to be transferred to another audit group. I had worked for their group that audits federal financial industries regulators for almost 8 years. I had just earned a master’s degree in financial markets and trading from IIT and became a Forensic Accountant, Certified Financial Services Auditor, Certified Government Financial Manager, and Certified Fraud Examiner.
