When did your ancestor come to America? Mine came during the 1840s and 1850s. What were they doing in 1919? On my father’s side, they were operating Crete’s only hardware store. On my mother’s side, they were operating a farm in Grant park on the Indiana border.)

WLS AM
— DIERSEN HEADLINE: Trump-haters shout that “Pete Buttigieg calls Vice President Pence a cheerleader for the porn star presidency.” Government is nasty. Politics is nasty. Are you a member of a church? Do you attend church services? Do you give money to a church? I should write a book about Diersen-haters who demonize me, who denigrate me, and who condemn me a) because I am not a member of any church, b) because I do not attend church services, c) because I do not give money to a church, and d) because I put GOPUSA ILLINOIS emails together and send them out Sundays mornings instead of attending church services. In the book, I would focus on Diersen-haters, their operatives, and their dupes in Wheaton, in Glen Ellyn, in Milton Township, in DuPage County, and in Illinois. They blame me and my GOPUSA ILLINOIS emails for their problems, for your problems, for my problems, for everyone’s problems, and for all the losses that Republican candidates have suffered in Illinois since 2000.
http://www.wlsam.com/news/pete-buttigieg-calls-vice-president-pence-a-cheerleader-for-the-porn-star-presidency/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: South Bend Mayor Pete Buttigieg lambasted Mike Pence — a man he used to work directly with during Pence’s time as governor of Indiana — calling the vice president a “cheerleader for the porn star presidency” on Sunday at CNN’s town hall. Buttigieg went on to question Pence’s faith, asking rhetorically whether Pence stopped “believing in scripture when he started believing Donald Trump.” “How would he allow himself to become the cheerleader for the porn star presidency? Is it that he stopped believing in scripture when he started believing Donald Trump?” Buttigieg said. “I don’t know. I don’t know.”)

In 1997, I had worked for GAO for almost 18 years and for IRS for almost 9 years before that.

— Here’s how to help people who have kids and aren’t rich run for Congress Candidates have to quit their jobs to campaign. This bill would provide a small financial cushion. – Nicholas Carnes (DIERSEN: What are you? I am a retired federal employee. What were you? I was a GAO Analyst for almost 18 years, the last 11 years of which at the GS-13 Step 1-10 levels, currently $96,403-$125,325. I was an IRS Revenue Officer for almost 9 years, the last 5 1/2 years of which at the GS-12 Step 1-5 levels, currently $81,071-$91,880. I passed the CPA examination and Certified Internal Auditor examination on my first attempt.)
https://www.washingtonpost.com/outlook/2019/03/07/heres-how-help-people-who-have-kids-arent-rich-run-congress/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Name someone in Congress who used to be a hotel housekeeper. Or a factory worker. Or a fast-food worker. Or an ironworker, receptionist or Walmart cashier. If examples aren’t coming to mind, there’s a good reason. People from working-class occupations — manual labor, service industry work, clerical jobs — seldom go on to hold elected political office in the United States. Working-class jobs make up more than half of the U.S. labor force. But according to my research, in most years since the start of the 20th century, there haven’t been more than a dozen members of Congress with significant experience doing the kinds of jobs most Americans punch in for every day. (The figures are probably similar for the 19th century, but the data is less reliable.) When the New York Times recently took stock of the career backgrounds of members of the 116th House, the newspaper identified a few “narrow but well-trodden paths through prestigious schools, lucrative jobs and local political offices.” The analysis found 12 Democrats and four Republicans who had ever held working-class jobs. In short, white-collar government is an enduring, and bipartisan, feature of U.S. politics.)

I have been one since 1999. What discourages you the most from helping elect Republican candidates in your precinct? For me, it is knowing the success that Democrat plants, Libertarian plants, Green plants, and RINOs in the Milton Township Republican Central Committee, DuPage County Republican Central Committee, and Illinois Republican Party have had a) in painting me as being a White supremacist, Nazi, KKK member, hater, racist, sexist, bigot, and even worse things and b) in turning voters in my precinct against me. They hint/imply/argue/shout at voters in my precinct that the more that I promote a candidate, the more that candidate is a White supremacist, Nazi, KKK member, hater, racist, sexist, bigot, and even worse things. I should write a book about the aforesaid.)

— If Google can’t kill the gender pay gap, who can? – Tim Worstall (DIERSEN: What did you do to qualify yourself for better paying jobs? 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. Virtually none of my Democrat superiors, supervisors, coworkers, and in federal government did that. To get better paying jobs, they helped their superiors get rid of employees who were Republican, White, male, and/or non-veteran who had not made GS-13 (currently $96,403) by age 25, GS-14 (currently $113,920) by age 30, GS-15 (currently $134,000) by age 35, and Senior Executive Service (currently $164,200) by age 40, that is, they helped implement Affirmative Action, Diversity, Inclusion, political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, age discrimination, retaliation, up-or-out, and even worse things.)

— The Left vs. Life in General – Deana Chadwell
https://www.americanthinker.com/articles/2019/03/the_left_vs_life_in_general.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The concepts of life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness are dear, or once were dear, to the hearts of all Americans. These are the sacred rights of all human beings — “sacred” because they are God-given and are not derived from government, rather government’s only mandate is to provide cover for those rights. However, due to decades of twisted school curricula, and of postmodern, subjective journalism, we’ve arrived at a place where a sizable percentage of our population finds equality, immorality, and environmentalism superior concepts. In fact the left finds these ideas so compelling that they are willing to sacrifice the lives of us all to impose widespread adherence to these new gods. Equality alone is deadly. Despite its description as “leveling the playing field” there is nothing level, nothing honest about it. The left openly wants to redistribute wealth as if a cosmic unfairness had declared some rich and some poor and government’s job is to rectify that. That attitude might have made sense back in feudal times, when upward mobility was close to impossible, but it makes no sense at all in a society where millions have manufactured their own wealth and the door of possibilities stands wide open. At least for now.)

Because of that lack of protection, a) 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 $19,203 (26%) pay cut in today’s dollars to transfer from IRS to GAO in 1980; b) 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; and c) my Democrat Post Office superiors forced me resign in 1969 and disallowed my sick leave requests in 1969 and 1968.)

While I worked for GAO 1980-1997, the last 11 years of which at GS-13 Step 1-10 levels, currently $96,403-$125,325, I increasingly worked as a referencer, that is, as a fact checker. That work required assuring the accuracy and support for each and every word, number, table, graph, chart, conclusion, opinion, and recommendation in GAO reports. I worked for IRS 1971-1980, the last 5 1/2 years of which at the GS-12 Step 1-5 levels, currently $81,071-$91,880. My other fact checking qualifications include my becoming a Forensic Accountant in 1997, a Certified Fraud Examiner in 1990, a licensed CPA in 1981, a Certified Internal Auditor in 1981, and a CPA in 1979.)

POLITICO
— DIERSEN HEADLINE: Ever-increasingly, Democrats demonize, denigrate, and condemn Republicans as being White supremacists, Nazis, KKK members, haters, racists, sexists, bigots, and even worse things who should be gotten rid of once and for all.
https://www.politico.com/story/2019/03/03/bernie-sanders-chicago-civil-rights-1200723
(FROM THE ARTICLE: “The reason I tell you all of this is because my activities here in Chicago taught me a very important lesson that I have never forgotten,” he said. “And that is that whether it is the struggle against corporate greed or against racism, sexism, homophobia, environmental devastation or war and militarism, real change never places from top on down. It always takes place from the bottom on up.“ He spoke about wealth gaps and other inequalities between black and white Americans as well. “Today, the infant mortality rate in black communities is more than double the rate for white communities,” he said, “and the death rates from cancer and almost every disease is far higher for blacks.”)

GO LOCAL PROV
— OUTSTANDING: Congress Gears Up Legislative Efforts to Combat Age Discrimination – Herb Weiss (DIERSEN: All my critics/opponents, all their operatives, and all their dupes promote age discrimination a) because they want to get rid of those who are older than they are and/or b) because they want to curry favor with those who promote age discrimination.)
https://www.golocalprov.com/news/weiss-congress-gears-up-legislative-efforts-to-combat-age-discrimination
(FROM THE ARTICLE: With the 116th Congress beginning on January 3, 2019, Congress moves quickly to protect older Americans from rampant age discrimination. It is a key reason why Americans, age 40 and over, are fired or offered buyouts (with younger persons being hired in their place) and why they can’t find work after a period of unemployment and struggle to return to the workforce.  On Valentine’s Day, U.S. Sen. Bob Casey (D-Pa.), Ranking Member of the Special Committee on Aging, with cosponsors Sens. Chuck Grassley (R-Iowa), Patrick Leahy (D-Vt.) and Susan Collins (R-Maine) re-introduced S 485, The Protecting Older Workers Against Discrimination Act (POWADA). The bill was referred to the Senate Committee on Health, Education, Labor and Pensions. Fixing a Supreme Court Ruling Over a decade ago, a U.S. Supreme Court ruling in Gross v. FBL Financial Services weakened the Age Discrimination in Employment Act (ADEA) by imposing a significantly higher burden of proof on older workers alleging age discrimination than is required of workers alleging other forms of workplace discrimination. As a result, workers that allege age discrimination must meet an undue legal burden not faced by workers alleging discrimination based on race, sex, national origin or religion. This sent a clear signal to employers: some age discrimination is perfectly fine. Enacting the bipartisan POWADA bill would restore the pre-Gross standard, recognizing once again the legitimacy of so-called “mixed-motive” claims in which discrimination is a, if not the deciding, factor. It would also reaffirm that workers may use any type of admissible evidence to prove their claims.)

 

PC MAGAZINE
— How to Spot Fake News Online Not sure which sources to trust when you’re online? These browser plug-ins and online tools can help you figure out how to detect fake news sites. – Lance Whitney (DIERSEN: What do you suggest that I to improve the ranking that NewsGuard gives www.gopillinois.com ?)

https://www.pcmag.com/feature/366512/how-to-spot-fake-news-online
(FROM THE ARTICLE: NewsGuard relies on a team of journalists who analyze more than 2,000 news and information sites in the United States. Each site is evaluated and ranked on nine different criteria: Does the site repeatedly publish false content? Does it gather and present information responsibly? Does it regularly correct or clarify errors? Does it handle the difference between news and opinion responsibly? Does it avoid deceptive headlines? Does it disclose ownership and financing about itself? Does it clearly label advertising? Does it reveal who’s in charge, including possible conflicts of interest? Does it provide information about content creators? Each criteria is given a certain weighting, or number of points, to determine the site’s overall rating. A site earns a green rating if it meets basic standards of accuracy and accountability. A site is dinged with a red rating if it fails to meet those minimum standards.)

— Draft registration and gender discrimination – Brett Kepley (DIERSEN: Were you draft bait? I was draft bait 1966-1971. Employers are extremely reluctant to hire, to retain, or to promote those who are draft bait. I graduated from NIU in August of 1970. During 1970 and 1971, potential employers did not believe that my application for a financial hardship draft deferment to help support my mother and brother would be approved. Consequently, in August of 1970, I took the only job that was offered me, a job that did not really require a college degree.)

They shout that the federal government grossly overpaid me and that my federal retirement benefits are much too generous. In my defense, my ancestors always lived in northeast Illinois, they all were Republicans, and they never had enough money to discriminate against anyone even if they wanted to.)

Employers are extremely reluctant to hire, to retain, or to promote those who are draft bait. I graduated from NIU in August of 1970. During 1970 and 1971, potential employers did not believe that my application for a financial hardship draft deferment to help support my mother and brother would be approved. Consequently, in August of 1970, I took the only job that was offered me, a job that did not really require a college degree.)

TIMES
— Kinzinger has a right to speak his opinion when he’s off-duty – Editorial (DIERSEN: While I worked for the federal government for almost 30 years, and while I was “on duty,” I complained about political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, age discrimination, and retaliation. In 1988, when I was 40 years old, I became an active member in a class action lawsuit that charged my superiors with reverse discrimination, age discrimination, and retaliation. According to laws enforced by EEOC, I had “a right” to do that. According to the EEOC, “It is also illegal to retaliate against a person because he or she complained about discrimination, filed a charge of discrimination, or participated in an employment discrimination investigation or lawsuit. The law forbids discrimination in every aspect of employment.” SEE: https://www.eeoc.gov/laws/practices/ My critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes side with the federal government against me. I should write a book about my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes.)

— Mayoral race shows change has arrived, political expert says – Ravi Baichwal (DIERSEN: As Democrats gain power, the future is bleak for individuals, organizations, companies, governments, and countries in Chicago, Illinois, America, and the world that are Trump supporters, Protestant, conservative, patriotic, Republican, American, White, male, older, rich, gun owners, German American, and/or those whose ancestors have been in America for a long time.)
https://abc7chicago.com/politics/mayoral-race-shows-change-has-arrived-political-expert-says/5160143/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: And perhaps no community more than Chicago’s LGBTQ members celebrated as intensely with Tuesday’s outcome – the advent of a pair of African American women now vying for Chicago’s top spot. It brought a smile to the face of Rick Garcia. He started Equality Illinois a generation ago, seeking simple non-discrimination laws to protect the LGBTQ community. “All of the hard work, of many people over decades, came to fruition because both of these candidates,” he said. “One is lesbian and one has a strong record on LGBTQ rights. We haven’t seen that in a long time. There’s always somebody there who isn’t just with the community.” That undeniable political muscle was on display especially as you look the vote totals in wards 44, 46, 48 and 49 where the LGBTQ community is well represented, and had higher than average voter turnout — signaling again that they — with the African-American community — ought to have outsized roles in determining whether Toni Preckwinkle or Lori Lightfoot becomes the next mayor of Chicago.)

CRAIN’S CHICAGO BUSINESS
— Here’s how much more south suburban homeowners pay in taxes Property tax rates in the south suburbs are about twice what they are in western and north suburbs. We looked at comparably priced homes in several locations to see what that means in the dollars a homeowner pays. – DENNIS RODKIN (DIERSEN: How much value has your home lost? How much have your real estate taxes gone up?)
https://www.chicagobusiness.com/residential-real-estate/heres-how-much-more-south-suburban-homeowners-pay-taxes
(FROM THE ARTICLE: A home in south suburban Flossmoor sold last week for about 50 percent below what the sellers paid for it in 2006, a common enough story in Chicago’s slowly rising real estate market. Here’s what’s not so common: In that same stretch of 12 years, the home’s property tax bill went up by 40 percent. The dollar amounts are different—the sale price of the house on Braeburn Avenue went down by more than $500,000, while the taxes went up $6,700 between the 2006 and 2018 tax bills. But the criss-cross paths of prices and property taxes, with one going down while the other goes up, is a painful truth of the Chicago housing market that is most acute in the south Cook County suburbs. Tax rates in south Cook County municipalities are, on average, about twice those in western and northern towns. “The taxes are outrageous,” said Felicia Johnson, the D’aprile Properties agent who represented the buyers. “They’re absolutely the reason it was on the market so long. It’s a beautiful house. It’s gorgeous.”)

— Walmart is getting rid of greeters, worrying those with disabilities – AP (DIERSEN: What has caused you to worry? During the 1980s and 1990s, the Democrats who ran GAO got rid of their employees who were Republican, White, male, and/or non-veteran who they had not promoted to GS-13 (currently $96,403) by age 25, GS-14 (currently $113,920) by age 30, GS-15 (currently $134,000) by age 35, and Senior Executive Service (currently $164,200) by age 40. That worried me because my Democrat GAO superiors a) had forced me to take a $19,203 (26%) pay cut in today’s dollars, that is, a downgrade from GS-12 Step 5 to GS-9 Step 10, to transfer from IRS to GAO in 1980 when I was 31 years old, b) had kept me off audits of IRS for all but 3 (1986-1988) of the almost 18 years that I worked for GAO, c) had gotten rid of my mentor in 1987 who had hired me, gotten me assigned to audits of IRS in 1986, and promoted me in 1986, d) had not promoted me beyond GS-13, e) had always ranked me in the bottom half of my coworkers for pay-for-performance purposes, and f) had given me unfair performance expectations and appraisals. They forced me to retire in 1997 when I was 49 years old.)

https://www.wsj.com/articles/employees-pushed-to-keep-learning-new-skills-as-workplace-evolves-11551279600
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Lifelong learning has become a mantra in American corporations as employees face pressure to stay relevant in a rapidly evolving workplace. Employers, politicians and educators are hammering the message that people need to continuously upgrade their skills because of advancing technologies. Even companies that invest in employee training expect workers to figure out their future career path, and some want workers to retrain themselves on their own time and dime. “We’ve put huge emphasis on shifting responsibility to the individual,” said Tim Munden, who oversees employee training as chief learning officer at Unilever PLC, which provides employees with resources such as online classes. “There’s no way on earth we can send people to enough training courses to make the shift we need to adapt to the world around us. People need to take that on themselves.” Employers say the self-starter model offers better odds that people will take initiative to keep themselves employable by absorbing skills they’re actually interested in. But self-directed learning can be a heavy lift for workers in an economy where the signals are difficult even for experts to parse, said Andy Van Kleunen, chief executive of the National Skills Coalition.)

CBS ALBANY
— You Paid For It: Pricey cars gathering dust – Greg Floyd
https://cbs6albany.com/news/local/you-paid-for-it-government-vehicles-sitting-unused
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Some ritzy rides that you are paying for are sitting idle. A handful of taxpayer funded cars have normally been provided to some senior members of the NYS Senate. This year there is a twist – the Democrats who are now in control of the Senate don’t want the cars. We found the five expensive cars tucked away deep under the Empire State Plaza, covered in dust. There are two top of the line Ford Taurus Limiteds, and one 2017 Ford Explorer Limited, the priciest of the Explorers. There is a 2017 Chevy Tahoe Premier, again a top of the line vehicle. There is also one other older Tahoe. These cars were all purchased when Republicans controlled the Senate, but now the Democrats have grounded these cars. Democratic Senator David Carlucci says just because something has been done a certain way for years, that doesn’t mean the practice has to continue. Even many rank and file Republicans say they have concerns about the purchase of the pricey cars.)

— Media Training (DIERSEN: Based on how they have treated me and how they have treated my GOPUSA ILLINOIS emails, far too many activists, candidates, elected officials, party leaders, major donors, political consultants, etc. in Wheaton, in Glen Ellyn, in Milton Township, in DuPage County, and in Illinois who state that they are religious, conservative, and/or Republican need a tremendous amount of media training. Far too many of them blame me and my GOPUSA ILLINOIS emails for their problems, for your problems, for my problems, and for everyone’s problems.

— ‘Have you taken a trip to the Hanoi Hilton yet?’ Meghan McCain trolls Trump after president mocks ‘Da Nang Dick’ Blumenthal saying ‘I have now spent more time in Vietnam than him’ – even though both men avoided the war – ARIEL ZILBER (DIERSEN: I should write a book about those who have punished me the most for my seeking and getting a) four student draft deferments 1966-1970 and b) a financial hardship draft deferment 1970-1971. Most of them were my Democrat superiors, supervisors, coworkers, and subordinates in the federal government. But some are/were religious, conservative, and Republican activists, candidates, elected officials, party leaders, major donors, and political consultants.)
https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-6753589/Meghan-McCain-trolls-Trump-president-mocks-Da-Nang-Dick-Blumenthal-Vietnam-claims.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Meghan McCain, co-host of The View and daughter of late Senator John McCain, hit out at President Trump on Wednesday. She reacted to Trump’s tweet in which he mocked Senator Richard Blumenthal of Connecticut. Trump has repeatedly referred to Blumenthal as ‘Da Nang Dick’ over the Democratic senator’s false claims that he served in Vietnam. ‘I have now spent more time in Vietnam than Da Nang Dick Blumenthal,’ Trump tweeted on Wednesday. Meghan McCain replied: ‘Have you taken a trip to the Hanoi Hilton yet?’ The Hanoi Hilton is where her father was held captive by the North Vietnamese after his plane was shot down during the war. Trump has slammed Blumenthal for his claims about serving in Vietnam – even though Trump himself received multiple deferments and avoided service.)

— Pritzker makes DC debut as governor; joins with Cuomo to protest Trump tax hit – Lynn Sweet (DIERSEN: Trump should increase the $10,000 SALT cap to $20,000 for married filing jointly.)
https://chicago.suntimes.com/news/pritzker-cuomo-state-local-taxes-deduction-trump-national-governors-association/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: At issue is what is nicknamed the “SALT” (state and local taxes) provision in the Trump tax bill Republicans pushed through Congress in 2017 that placed a $10,000 cap on federal income taxes deductions for state and local taxes. In states like Illinois and New York, with higher state and property taxes, the SALT cap could outweigh other breaks in the tax bill. Cuomo organized the “Governors Coalition for Tax Fairness,” with five Democratic governors on Friday kicking off a lobbying drive to lift the SALT cap. The new Democratic run House has the votes to restore or revise the SALT cap; the GOP controlled Senate is likely to resist, because the added revenues were needed to finance what Cuomo and other Democrats call a “tax cut for the rich.” “The states that have state and local taxes tend to be Democratic states. I’m sure that was a coincidence,” Cuomo said with muted sarcasm. He added the “politically motivated” SALT cap “was a declaration of civil war between Democratic states and Republican states.” Pritzker said the SALT cap could impact some two million Illinoisans “in a very negative way.” Almost every Illinois Democrat in Congress is protesting the loss of a full SALT deduction on federal income taxes.)

THE HILL
— Firing bad federal government workers should not be difficult – TOM SCHATZ (DIERSEN: According to my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes, I was a bad federal government worker. They stress that my superiors forced me to retire in 1997 when I was 49 years old and took other adverse actions against me before that. They reject my argument that my superiors wasted my career and got rid of me a) because I complained about political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, age discrimination, and retaliation and b) because I became an active member in a class action lawsuit in 1988 that charged them with reverse discrimination, age discrimination, and retaliation. They stress that my Republican U.S. Senators and Republican U.S. Representatives did not come to my defense.)
https://thehill.com/opinion/finance/431187-firing-bad-federal-government-workers-should-not-be-difficult
(FROM THE ARTICLE: A significant hurdle to getting rid of bad federal employees is the Merit Systems Protection Board. The agency was originally created to ensure the effectiveness of human capital in the federal government, but it has since metastasized into an institutional nightmare that makes it almost impossible to fire any worker for any reason. Through the early 1880s, the federal civil service operated under a spoils system by which the winning political party gave civil service jobs to its supporters. This system caused large numbers of government employees to be replaced every time there was an administration change, and it led to an insecure federal workforce. It routinely drove thousands of job seekers to Washington who believed they were owed a job based on their political support of the president. The spoils system was abolished after the assassination of James Garfield by a disgruntled federal job seeker. Reforms were enacted over the years to establish principles for handling federal employees and adjudicating appeals of removal. The Merit Systems Protection Board was created in 1978 as an independent authority to manage federal employee appeals of furlough, suspension, retirement, and removal decisions. It can develop its own legal procedures, call witnesses, issue subpoenas, and enforce the compliance of federal agencies with its internal decisions. Of the two million federal employees within the jurisdiction of the Merit Systems Protection Board, around 200,000 leave the government each year, but only about 10,000 are removed for performance or misconduct reasons. The rest retire, resign, or finish a temporary appointment.)

It wastes the careers of and gets rid of its employees who are Republican, White, male, and/or non-veteran who do not make GS-13 (currently $96,403) by age 25, GS-14 (currently $113,920) by age 30, GS-15 (currently $134,000) by age 35, and Senior Executive Service (currently $164,200) by age 40. Extremely few federal employees make the aforesaid promotion deadlines.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: Research indicates that age discrimination has become more rampant. Employers must figure out how to retain their experienced workers, especially given the fact that they will comprise such a large portion of the American workforce in coming years.)

https://chicago.suntimes.com/cannabis/pritzker-budget-boost-education-recreational-marijuana-money-freeze-income-tax-sports-betting-vaping/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: In his first budget address, Democratic Gov. J.B. Pritzker plans to pitch an “austere” spending blueprint with no increase in the state income tax rate, a bump in education funding and revenue from business licenses to sell recreational marijuana. Pritzker told the Chicago Sun-Times he will also push for taxes on e-cigarettes and vaping, and for the legalization of sports betting to help bring in more immediate revenue. As for his plan to legalize recreational marijuana — which will take time to negotiate and pass in the Illinois General Assembly — the governor’s office said the budget is “banking some revenues,” from legalizing marijuana, “but just from the selling of the licenses.”)

SPRINGFIELD STATE JOURNAL REGISTER
— New GOP exec director – Bernard Schoenburg
https://www.sj-r.com/opinion/20190112/bernard-schoenburg-davis-votes-for-funding-on-agency-by-agency-basis
(FROM THE ARTICLE: ANTHONY SARROS, a Decatur native who has also lived in Springfield and is now in Chicago, is the new executive director of the Illinois Republican Party. Sarros, 28, went to Mount Zion High School and has a political science degree, with a minor in business, from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. His parents still live in Decatur. Sarros was political director of Gov. BRUCE RAUNER’S re-election campaign, and had earlier been political director of the state GOP, data director for the House Republican Organization, and field office manager on Rauner’s 2014 campaign. When LaHood first ran for Congress in special primary and general elections in 2015, Sarros was deputy campaign manager and field director. Before getting into politics, he worked in jobs including being assistant to the Midwest scout for the Pittsburgh Pirates. “In the wake of the 2018 election, Republicans have the opportunity to offer a stark contrast from the governing Democrats to the voters in Illinois,” Sarros said. “It will be a challenge.” Sarros took over for TRAVIS STERLING, who took a job as director of development at the American Principles Project. That Arlington, Virginia-based organization also has an executive director from Illinois — TERRY SCHILLING, son of and one-time campaign manager for former U.S. Rep. BOBBY SCHILLING, R-Colona. The elder Schilling won a single term in the old 17th Congressional District in 2010, when that oddly shaped district included part of Springfield.)

CHICAGO CITY WIRE
— Lowering taxes at top of list for self-made man, mayoral candidate Wilson – Glenn Minnis (DIERSEN: Are you “self-made?” My critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes would shout that I am not. They would shout that I was a lowly failed wage-earner 1964-1997 and I have been a lowly failed retiree since 1997.)
https://chicagocitywire.com/stories/511766880-lowering-taxes-at-top-of-list-for-self-made-man-mayoral-candidate-wilson
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Enter the 70-year-old Wilson, who is running for mayor of Chicago amid a field of candidates that seems to grow by the day. Wilson, a self-made millionaire businessman, said his greatest selling point is that he’s different from the career politicians now in the race. “I’m not running for a paycheck,” Wilson said, adding that he plans to use his own money to finance his campaign. “The truth is I’m running to help all the people of this city who still do need a paycheck to be able to make a better living.” A resident of Chicago since 1965, Wilson went from picking cotton during the Jim Crow era, making 20 cents an hour, to being one of the first black owners of a McDonald’s restaurant. He took a struggling location and turned it around within a year, earning top accolades including the Outstanding Store Award and Top Sales Performer. The restaurant’s performance led to Wilson owning several around Chicago.)

DAILY NATION
— How to keep your career moving forward – JAMES KAHONGEH (DIERSEN: What hindered your career from moving forward? For me, for a career in the private sector, it was my being draft bait until I was 22 years old in 1971 and Oldsmobile withdrawing a job offer in 1971 that I had accepted because it had just agreed to stop hiring Whites to settle an EEOC complaint. For me, for a career in the federal government, it was my avoiding the draft, my being a Republican, my complaining about political affiliation discrimination, my complaining about reverse discrimination, my complaining about age discrimination, and my becoming in 1988 an active member in a class action lawsuit that charged the federal government with reverse discrimination, age discrimination, and retaliation. For me, for careers in both the private sector and the federal government, it was my not having a degree from an Ivy League university, my not earning an MBA until I was 27, my not passing the CPA examination until I was 30, my not earning master’s degree in accounting until I was 31, my not passing the Certified Internal Auditor examination until I was 32, and my not becoming a licensed CPA until I was 32. For me, for careers in both the private sector and the federal government, because since the 1960s employers have been under tremendous pressure to hire, retain, and promote minorities and females and because they have always been under tremendous pressure to hire veterans, it was my being a White male non-veteran.)

— McGlasson calls for Illinois GOP Chairman Schneider to ‘do the right thing’ and resign – Karen Kidd (DIERSEN: Illinois Republicans anxiously await the Illinois Republican Party (IRP) to publish a report on its February 9, 2019 State Central Committee (SCC) meeting in Bolingbrook, including a summary of the results of its “ILGOP Vision 2020” survey. The meeting included reports by IRP Chairman Tim Schneider and Co-Chairman Mark Shaw, IRP National Committeeman Richard Porter, IRP National Committeewoman Demetra Demonte, and the IRP SCC members. IRP SCC members are listed at: https://illinois.gop/who-we-are/officials/. Jeanne Ives addressed the meeting for 10 minutes. Meeting attendees included Richard Berner, John Biver, Carol Davis, Babette Holder, Bill Hogan, Doug Ibendahl, James Marter, Matt Quigley, Jan Shaw, and Allen Skillicorn. During the public comment portion of the meeting, attendees were given the opportunity to identify themselves and speak. The meeting ran from 9:30 AM until after 2:30 PM with only a short break for lunch. I posted a copy of the survey questions and my responses at the end of the February 9, 2019 GOPUSA ILLINOIS Morning Edition Email.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: Less than a year after an alleged attempt by now former Gov. Bruce Rauner to purge him from the Illinois GOP’s central committee, a committeeman earlier this week called upon the party’s chairman to resign. “I am respectfully asking our Chairman Tim Schneider to step aside for the good of the party in the future,” 16th Congressional District Representative John McGlasson said in a letter read into the record during the Republican State Central Committee’s meeting over the weekend. “Even though we disagree with many things, he is a good and honorable man. His work on behalf of the party merits our respect.” But that work apparently has not been good enough for McGlasson, and “his nearly five years of party leadership can only be described as disastrous,” the letter stated. “We have no Republican Constitutional Officers, we are in the super-minority in both houses of the General Assembly and the party’s finances are in dire straits.” Former State Representative Jeanne Ives reportedly spoke at the meeting and made a request similar to McGlasson’s.)

— Cliff Sims worked for the White House. Now Trump wants to silence him. – Mark S. Zaid (DIERSEN: After wasting my career and forcing me to take their early retirement “offer” in 1997 when I was 49 years old, my Democrat GAO superiors certainly did not want to silence me. They wanted everyone to know about GAO’s Affirmative Action, Diversity, Inclusion, and “up-or-out” policies, that is, that GAO gets rid of its employees who a Republican, White, male, and/or non-veteran who they did not promote to GS-13 (currently $96,403) by age 25, GS-14 (currently $113,920) by age 30, GS-15 (currently $134,000) by age 35, and Senior Executive Service (currently $164,200) by age 40. Obviously, the aforesaid policies help GAO recruit and retain Democrats, minorities, females, younger people, and veterans.)
