FOX ILLINOIS
— Democrats acknowledge that “Sangamon County residents seek answers on migrant crisis impact in Illinois.” Democrats want migrants because migrants vote for Democrats. RINOs want migrants because RINOs want cheap labor.
https://foxillinois.com/news/local/sangamon-county-residents-seek-answers-on-migrant-crisis-impact-in-illinois
(FROM THE ARTICLE: “We’re footing the bill for it all, and so things are getting tight. We need answers,” said Pulido, Illinois state advisor for the Federation for American Immigration Reform (FAIR). “These people ran for office to be our representatives, and they need to get educated number one and number two, come up with some ideas.” During the town hall a number of concerns around the immigration issue were also brought up. One of the biggest concerns and issues that was shared was where Illinois taxpayer money and resources are being used. “Illinois is spending $3.9 billion a year for illegal aliens who are present in your state The single largest cost is K through 12–it’s education. It’s the children of illegal aliens. That is the biggest cost to the state of Illinois for $2.3 billion. The second one is criminal justice,” said Susan Tully, FAIR special projects law enforcement liaison and speaker for the forum. Other worries that were brought up are the overcrowding in schools, housing, and hospitals, as well as the human trafficking that happens at the border. Sangamon County Sheriff Jack Campbell and State Representative Mike Coffey were among those in the audience at the town hall.)

CENTRAL ILLINOIS PROUD
— Democrats say “Trump downplays his legal challenges on the campaign trail in Iowa after revealing new target letter.” My Democrat IRS superiors not only never downplay the career challenges that I faced because they disallowed my travel vouchers in 1974 and disallowed my education deductions in 1978, they stressed those career challenges. That was one reason why I suffered a $21,863/year (21%) pay cut in today’s dollars to transfer from IRS to GAO in 1980.

https://www.nctv17.org/news/naperville-chief-of-police-dupage-county-states-attorney-respond-to-elimination-of-cash-bail/

POLITICO ILLINOIS
— Democrats say “Cash bail ends — but not its politics. . .Our inbox was full of statements from Republican leaders criticizing the ruling. It’s a signal the cash bail law will be a talking point in 2022 – even though the law will already be in effect. The GOP outrage: Congresswoman Mary Miller (IL-15) predicted the law “will flood the streets” with dangerous criminals. State Sen. Andrew Chesney accused Democrats of enacting “the most radical soft-on-crime policies in the country.” And state Republican Senate Leader John Curran called for a special session of the Democratic-controlled General Assembly “to properly address the negative impact on the public before this reckless statute goes into effect in just 60 days.” Sounds familiar: Republicans used similar language ahead of the 2022 election. Broadsheet publications designed to read like real newspapers fueled misinformation about the criminal justice reform law known as the SAFE-T Act, which includes eliminating cash bail. The publications stirred confusion and forced Democrats to spend time explaining the nuances of the law, even though it had already passed and had nothing to do with the election itself. Ultimately, Democrats came out ahead after the election, gaining even more seats in the General Assembly and re-electing Democratic Gov. JB Pritzker, who had signed the law abolishing cash bail. What’s next: Watch for Republicans to revisit the 2022 campaign tactic nonetheless. From the right: “Democrats’ position on eliminating cash bail and being soft on crime will be a top issue that will impact the 2024 election — especially in the suburbs,” GOP political consultant Jon Zahm told Playbook.”

— When to Call Your State Rep. or Senator or Both (COMMENT: In retrospect, with benefit of hindsight, I should have called my Republican U.S. Senator and my Republican U.S. Representative every time my Democrat Post Office (1966-1969), IRS (1971-1980), and GAO (1980-1997) superiors took adverse actions against me. But I acknowledge that might very well have not saved me because many of my Republican U.S. Senators and my Republican U.S. Representatives a) rejected the equal opportunity (no race or gender based preference giving) plank in the Republican Party platform, b) promoted patronage, political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, and/or age discrimination, c) were anti-draft avoiders, d) were anti-Protestant, e) anti-German American, f) were anti-conservative if not anti-Republican, and/or g) were anti-those who did not give them lots of money. I lived in Crete 1948-1972, University Park 1972-1976, Chicago 1976-1978, and Wheaton since 1978.)

CENTER SQUARE ILLINOIS
— Leaders of the union representing Chicago police say they have reached a tentative agreement with the city over a retention bonus. State Rep. La Shawn Ford, D-Chicago, told The Center Square that retention benefits are needed to keep competent police officers in the city. – Andrew Hensel (COMMENT: Since 1997, when I was 49 years old, when my Democrat GAO superiors succeeded in forcing me to take their early retirement “offer,” my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes have hinted/implied/argued/shouted that my Democrat GAO superiors did that because I was incompetent and even worse things. In my defense, I stress that a) I had earned a master’s degree in financial markets and trading from IIT and I had become a Forensic Accountant that year, b) I had become a Certified Financial Service Auditor in 1996, c) I had become a Certified Government Financial Manager in 1994, d) I had become a Certified Fraud Examiner in 1990, e) I had passed the Certified Internal Auditor examination on my first attempt and I had become a licensed CPA in 1981, f) I had earned a master’s degree in accounting from DePaul in 1980, g) I had passed the CPA examination on my first attempt in 1979, and h) I had earned an MBA from Loyola in 1976. Because my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes had to acknowledge the aforesaid, they have ever-increasingly hinted/implied/argued/shouted that the real reason why I was forced into early retirement was that I am a White supremacist, Nazi, KKK member, hater, racist, sexist, bigot, and even worse things. This all came out when my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes unsuccessfully tried to get the Illinois Center Right Coalition to censure me for my GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters during its 2006 Annual Convention in the Wheaton Bowl Banquet Hall. I should write a book about my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes. Better yet, I should sue them.)

— Affirmative Action Bred Hypocrisy and Victimhood. The Supreme Court’s decision gives conservatives an opportunity to reaffirm their commitment to merit. – Bobby Jindal (COMMENT: My critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes have always rejected the equal opportunity (no race or gender based preference giving) plank in the Republican Party platform, that is, they have always promoted Affirmative Action (AA), Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI). I should write books about them. I would focus on those who have hinted/implied/argued/shouted the most that I should pay the price of AA and DEI big time because my parents were filthy rich and because I have benefitting tremendously from discrimination against minorities, females, younger people, LGBTQers, veterans, non-Christians, non-Protestants, non-German Americans, those whose ancestors have not been in America for a long time, citizens of foreign countries, boozers, gamblers, stoners, criminals, those who have less money than I had/have, etc. I would focus on those who have taken the most/biggest adverse actions against me. I would focus on my Democrat superiors in the federal government and a) RINO leaders of the Milton Township Republican Organization, DuPage County Republican Central Committee, and Illinois Republican Party, b) RINO leaders of Wheaton, Wheaton Park District, Wheaton Chamber of Commerce, Milton Township, DuPage County, and Illinois, c) RINO candidates on ballots in my precinct and their major donors, political consultants, fundraisers, pollsters, campaign managers, campaign staff members, and campaign volunteers, and d) RINO conservative and religious leaders and activists.

NEW YORK POST
— Affirmative action in hiring must end – Vivek Ramaswamy (COMMENT: Democrats and RINOs have ever-increasing used Affirmative Action to get rid of Republicans, that is, Democrats and RINOs have ever-increasingly used patronage, political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, and age discrimination to get rid of Republicans. I should write a book about that.)
https://nypost.com/2023/07/16/follow-supremes-merit-based-lead-affirmative-action-in-hiring-must-end-too/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: It turns out we’ve been living in a strictly enforced aristocracy — one based on where you fall in the “intersectional hierarchy” or oppression index. We’ve replaced color-blindness with merit-blindness and left ourselves utterly in the dark as to how to find competent individuals to start fixing our most serious problems. As the Asian students who just won their case at the Supreme Court found out the hard way, your ethnic heritage can indeed work against you at America’s preeminent DEI — diversity, equity, inclusion — enforcement camp, formerly known as the Ivy League. When the Supreme Court struck down affirmative action in higher education in Students for Fair Admissions v. Harvard, many cheered. Finally, our sacred meritocracy would be restored! Excellence would matter again. A student’s intellectual ability would be valued again. GPAs and SAT scores might even make a comeback! It remains to be seen if the law will have any effect on the blatantly unconstitutional practices long entrenched at college-admissions offices. Backwards job quotas But make no mistake — ugly racial quotas and unconstitutional policies are in full effect at corporate America’s HR departments. Anyone who works at a large company understands this. Less-qualified people are routinely hired and promoted over others based on shallow, literally skin-deep metrics. Hiring employees from disfavored demographic groups — men, Asians, heterosexuals, whites — won’t help boost your corporate ESG (environment, social and governance) score, so why bother? Could the new Supreme Court ruling also apply to corporate America? As 13 courageous state attorneys general recently pointed out in their letter to the Fortune 100 CEOs, it sure does. “Let there be no confusion: These principles apply equally to Title VII and other laws restricting race-based discrimination in employment and contracting. Courts routinely interpret Title VI and Title VII in conjunction with each other, adopting the same principles and interpretation for both statutes,” they wrote. “Accordingly, the Supreme Court’s recent decision should place every employer and contractor on notice of the illegality of racial quotas and race-based preferences in employment and contracting practices.” It’s thrilling to see state officials take their obligations to enforce anti-discrimination laws seriously. Kudos to the AGs from Kansas, Tennessee, Alabama, Arkansas, Indiana, Iowa, Kentucky, Mississippi, Missouri, Montana, Nebraska, South Carolina and West Virginia. Could these 13 states forge a new meritocratic alliance? A sanctuary region where skilled and talented people of any race could flourish without kneeling to the woke DEI gods? Of course, the Trump administration deserves credit for starting this pushback; its Department of Labor launched investigations into Microsoft and Wells Fargo over racial preferences and representation goals. But starting in 2020, the newly energized equity freight train plowed through the boardroom of every big company. What will the long-term consequences of this practice be in terms of competence, reputation and profit? Incredibly, even the airlines announced they would be hiring new pilots according to strict affirmative-action guidelines. In 2021, United Airlines vowed to make sure at least 50% of its new pilots are women or people of color. In 2023, Bud Light told United, “Hold my beer.” Making corporate DEI illegal is also good for the companies. If applied, this law would prevent them from making terrible business decisions — decisions that harm qualified applicants, keep talented people from achieving success, wreck valuable brands and make flyers worry about their plane crashing. As the AG letter concludes, “Social mobility is essential for the long-term viability of a democracy, and our leading institutions should continue to provide opportunities to underprivileged Americans. Race, though, is a poor proxy for what is fundamentally a class distinction. We urge you to immediately cease any unlawful race-based quotas or preferences your company has adopted for its employment and contracting practices. If you choose not to do so, know that you will be held accountable — sooner rather than later — for your decision to continue treating people differently because of the color of their skin. Federal law is now crystal clear that these corporate policies are illegal. We will see whether the Biden administration — which has so loudly claimed to support the Civil Rights Act — will enforce it.)

BBN TIMES
— THE IMPORTANCE OF STUDYING PUBLIC POLICY: UNDERSTANDING ITS IMPACT ON SOCIETY – Felix Yim (COMMENT: What public policy has had the biggest negative impact on you? By far, Affirmative Action (AA) has had biggest negative impact on me. My superiors in the federal government and my critics/opponents in Wheaton, Milton Township, DuPage County, and Illinois have used AA against me big time. I should write a book about that. They have always stressed that I have always opposed patronage, political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, and age discrimination, that is, that I have always opposed Affirmative Action (AA), Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI). Further, they have always stressed that I am heterosexual, conservative, Republican, White, male, old (born in 1948), draft avoider, non-poor, gun-owner, Protestant (baptized, raised, and confirmed as a Missouri Synod Lutheran), 100% German American, my ancestors have been in America since 1844, a Crete resident 1948-1972, and a Wheaton resident since 1978.  Again, I should write a book about that.

— Democrats say “He’s made millions from video gambling in Illinois. Regulators want to revoke his license.”
https://www.bnd.com/news/local/article276805481.html

WEDNESDAY JOURNAL
— Democrats say “In DEI training, Oak Park board talks plain about English. Theory of change and prevalence of the English language in U.S. discussed.” All my ancestors immigrated during the 1840s and 1850s from what is now Germany. Tragically, they were very slow to speak, read, and write English. Consequently, my father was only the first of my ancestors to earn a high school diploma. My mother never attended high school.
https://www.oakpark.com/2023/07/11/in-dei-training-oak-park-board-talks-plain-about-english/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: When the Oak Park village board first embarked on cultural competency training, its first session, held June 26, was dedicated to deconstructing what racial equity really is and the myths surrounding it. That deconstruction work continued July 5 during the board’s second session but evolved into an interesting discussion of how the prevalence of the English language in the United States has been used to assert cultural dominance. “I think being able to speak multiple languages is like a superpower, but it’s not always necessarily considered a value,” said Danielle Walker, the village’s chief officer of diversity, equity and inclusion. The discussion of the English language’s influence on American culture was spurred by Trustee Lucia Robinson, who used English-speaking mandates in areas along the United States-Mexico border as an example of how policies and practices can reinforce the systemic social barriers that create inequity.)

POLITICO ILLINOIS
— Democrats crow that “Uihleins lose a battle at home.”
https://www.politico.com/newsletters/illinois-playbook/2023/07/13/uihleins-say-new-law-really-blows-00106077
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Republican megadonors Dick and Liz Uihlein have lost some big battles over the years, but the latest one hits close to home — literally. The rule really blows: The Uihleins asked the Village of Lake Bluff, where they live on a huge estate, to exempt them from a new regulation that bans smelly, noisy gas-powered leaf blowers from May 15 to Sept. 30. Who’s exempt: Only public properties such as golf courses, village athletic fields and schools are allowed the exemption — and that’s just for two years while they get battery-powered equipment in hand. The Uihleins made their request in a June 2 letter to Village Administrator Drew Irvin. “Given the size of our 22-acre property in Lake Bluff, we would like to request a similar two-year exemption,” they wrote, adding that battery-powered blowers “simply cannot get the job done as well and are basically just as noisy as gas-powered ones.” Village President Regis Charlot referred the Uihleins’ request to the village’s Sustainability and Community Enhancement Committee, which discussed the issue but rejected the request, Irvin told Playbook. Village trustees unanimously agreed, and officially snuffed the Uihleins’ request at their June 27 board meeting, according to Pioneer Press’ Daniel I. Dorfman, who first wrote about the issue. From the board: “There are tools out there that can be used,” Trustee Marietta Hance said in Dorfman’s story. “This is a private family asking the community to make an exemption for them. It doesn’t fit with what we have decided.” Not their first loss: The Uihleins, who didn’t return requests for comment, are among the largest Republican donors in the country. And as POLITICO’s Alex Isenstadt recently wrote, the Uihleins have been criticized “for squandering millions of dollars on failed longshot candidates, including several in 2022, like Illinois gubernatorial candidate Darren Bailey and Arkansas Senate hopeful Jake Bequette.” The couple’s combined political giving to federal candidates and causes over the last decade exceeds $230 million, according to campaign finance records.)

That similarity was shown by the fact that I passed the Certified Internal Auditor examination on my first attempt and became a licensed CPA in 1981.

What have your ancestors done against minorities? Mine have done nothing. What have your superiors done to close Chicago’s racial wealth gap? My Democrat GAO superiors forced me to take their early retirement “offer” in 1997 when I was 49 years old and gave my Black subordinate my job and my preferred corner office.

— Democrats say “Adam Kinzinger, the former Illinois congressman, isn’t endorsing for president (yet), but he wants to see Chris Christie on the debate stage next month. Kinzinger’s PAC has sent out an email encouraging donors to give to Christie’s campaign. Next month’s GOP debate in Milwaukee has rigid criteria to get on stage. Candidates must secure 40,000 donors for the first debate, and Christie isn’t there yet. “If he doesn’t meet the threshold,” according to the pitch, “there will be no one on stage to say ‘the emperor has no clothes.’” It’s a reference to former President Donald Trump.”

(FROM THE ARTICLE: Former state representative and gubernatorial candidate Jeanne Ives highlighted the scene on Twitter. “1000% Unethical!” Ives tweeted. “Taxpayer funds cannot be used for political purposes. Glowiak is just another corrupt Illinois Democrat.” Ives added that it is “No surprise that firefighters did this as their union is as bad as the teacher unions.” She suggested that “Hinsdale needs to fire their fire chief.”)

— Democrats ever-increasingly promote stories about minorities and about women who have benefitted from Affirmative Action (AA), that is, who have benefitted from reparations, patronage, political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, and age discrimination. I challenge the Daily Herald to publish stories about those like me who have been forced to pay the price of AA by Democrats and by RINOs. I challenge the Daily Herald to publish my story. In 1971, when I was 22 years old, Oldsmobile withdrew a job offer that I had accepted saying that it had just agreed to stop hiring Whites to settle an EEOC complaint. Sadly, if not tragically for me, that directly resulted in my accepting a job offer from IRS. Especially after 1974, my Democrat IRS superiors used AA to promote over me my coworkers who were minority, female, and/or veteran and a) who had less job-related work experience than I had, b) who had less job-related education than I had, and/or c) who had not taken the CPA examination, let alone passed it. I earned an MBA from Loyola in 1976 and I passed the CPA examination on my first attempt in 1979. In 1980, because I was not a Democrat, minority, female, veteran. and/or younger, GAO forced me to suffer a $21,863/year (21%) pay cut in today’s dollars to transfer from IRS to GAO. My Democrat GAO superiors gave me unfair job assignments, performance expectations, and performance appraisals. They assigned me to supervised all their most problematic employees. The kept me off audits of IRS for all but 3 of the almost 18 years that I worked for GAO. They delayed my promotions and never promoted me beyond GS-13. They used AA to promote over me my coworkers who were minority, female, and/or veteran and a) who had less job-related work experience than I had, b) who had less job-related education than I had, and/or c) who had not taken the CPA or Certified Internal Auditor (CIA) examinations, let alone passed them. I earned a master’s degree in accounting from DePaul in 1980, I passed the CIA examination on my first attempt in 1981, I became a licensed CPA in 1981, I became a Certified Fraud Examiner in 1990, Government Financial Manager in 1994, Financial Services Auditor in 1996, and Forensic Accountant in 1997, and I earned a master’s degree in financial markets and trading from IIT in 1997. They always ranked me in the bottom half of my coworkers for pay-for-performance purposes. They forced me to take their early retirement “offer” in 1997 and gave my job and my preferred corner office to my Black subordinate. The Milton Township Republican Organization, DuPage County Republican Central Committee, Illinois Republican Party, Wheaton, Wheaton Park District, Wheaton Chamber of Commerce, Milton Township, DuPage County, Illinois, TAPROOT Republicans of Illinois, Illinois Center Right Coalition, American Association of Political Consultants Midwest Chapter, etc. have all taken many big adverse actions against me that they would never had taken against me if I was a minority, female, veteran, and/or younger.

(FROM THE ARTICLE: As a longtime member of the National Governing Body of the Sport of Sailing, I just received a calendar and request for funding from Kristi Yamaguchi on behalf of the U.S. Olympic & Paralympic Foundation. It is titled “Unity in Diversity * Celebrating the Diversity of Team USA.” The calendar highlights “diversity” by assigning each month a highlight of an aspect of diversity. Starting in January, they are: World Braille Day, Black History Month, Women’s History Month, Earth Day, Asian American & Pacific Islander Heritage Month, LGBTQ+ Pride Month, Disability Pride Month, Women’s Equality Day, Hispanic Heritage Month, National Disability Employment Awareness Month, Native American Heritage Month and International Day of Persons with Disabilities. As a white American, straight male who is the direct descendant of nine male veterans of the American Revolution, we get no recognition. Not even Independence Day. Without them and their fellow soldiers, there would be no TEAM US (America).)

https://www.dailykos.com/stories/2023/7/7/2179902/-The-Radical-Right-Rulings-On-Affirmative-Action-Are-About-Resurrecting-The-Confederacy
— Democrats ever-increasingly promote stories about minorities and about women who have benefitted from Affirmative Action (AA), that is, who have benefitted from reparations, patronage, political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, and age discrimination. I challenge the Daily Kos to publish stories about those like me who have been forced to pay the price of AA by Democrats and by RINOs. I challenge the Daily Kos to publish my story. In 1971, when I was 22 years old, Oldsmobile withdrew a job offer that I had accepted saying that it had just agreed to stop hiring Whites to settle an EEOC complaint. Sadly, if not tragically for me, that directly resulted in my accepting a job offer from IRS. Especially after 1974, my Democrat IRS superiors used AA to promote over me my coworkers who were minority, female, and/or veteran and a) who had less job-related work experience than I had, b) who had less job-related education than I had, and/or c) who had not taken the CPA examination, let alone passed it. I earned an MBA from Loyola in 1976 and I passed the CPA examination on my first attempt in 1979. In 1980, because I was not a Democrat, minority, female, veteran. and/or younger, GAO forced me to suffer a $21,863/year (21%) pay cut in today’s dollars to transfer from IRS to GAO. My Democrat GAO superiors gave me unfair job assignments, performance expectations, and performance appraisals. They assigned me to supervised all their most problematic employees. The kept me off audits of IRS for all but 3 of the almost 18 years that I worked for GAO. They delayed my promotions and never promoted me beyond GS-13. They used AA to promote over me my coworkers who were minority, female, and/or veteran and a) who had less job-related work experience than I had, b) who had less job-related education than I had, and/or c) who had not taken the CPA or Certified Internal Auditor (CIA) examinations, let alone passed them. I earned a master’s degree in accounting from DePaul in 1980, I passed the CIA examination on my first attempt in 1981, I became a licensed CPA in 1981, I became a Certified Fraud Examiner in 1990, Government Financial Manager in 1994, Financial Services Auditor in 1996, and Forensic Accountant in 1997, and I earned a master’s degree in financial markets and trading from IIT in 1997. They always ranked me in the bottom half of my coworkers for pay-for-performance purposes. They forced me to take their early retirement “offer” in 1997 and gave my job and my preferred corner office to my Black subordinate. The Milton Township Republican Organization, DuPage County Republican Central Committee, Illinois Republican Party, Wheaton, Wheaton Park District, Wheaton Chamber of Commerce, Milton Township, DuPage County, Illinois, TAPROOT Republicans of Illinois, Illinois Center Right Coalition, American Association of Political Consultants Midwest Chapter, etc. have all taken many big adverse actions against me that they would never had taken against me if I was a minority, female, veteran, and/or younger.

I washed dishes 1964-1966. I cleaned golf shoes, chipped slag, and pumped gasoline in 1966. I delivered mail 1966-1969. If there had been as many illegals back then as there are now, they would have gotten the jobs that I got. Those low-wage jobs enabled me to a) buy a 1958 Chevrolet Bel Air in 1964, b) buy a new 1966 Pontiac Tempest Sprint in 1966, c) pay for my UIC and NIU expenses 1966-1970, d) buy a new 1968 Oldsmobile 442 in 1967, e) buy a new 1969 Dodge Charger SE in 1968, and f) graduate debt-free from NIU with a bachelor’s degree in management in 1970.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: Celebrities like musician and conservative activist Ted Nugent, whose passionate rhetoric has struck a chord with many Trump supporters has stuck by 45’s side, just like Kid Rock, whose unapologetic endorsement of Trump has garnered significant attention in the media. But it’s not just rockstars backing the former president. He has Super Bowl winners, award winning rappers, comedians, and reality TV stars by his side.)

https://www.newsweek.com/republican-2024-presidential-candidate-wants-kick-trump-off-ballot-1811412
(FROM THE ARTICLE: John Anthony Castro has not been shy about his dislike for former President Donald Trump. Once a donor—he gave $1,700 to Trump’s campaign after his shocking victory in the 2016 election—the Texas tax attorney and longshot 2024 Republican presidential candidate has since become one of his fiercest critics. He has sued Trump several times, launching his campaign with a lawsuit against Trump in his adopted home state of Florida seeking to disqualify him from the ballot. He has campaigned opposite Trump numerous times, lending support to anti-Trump groups and candidates like the Lincoln Project and former Alabama Democratic Senator Doug Jones. And he’s willing to invest millions to see Trump lose, loaning $20 million to his campaign ahead of an advertising blitz against the former president in early-voting states like New Hampshire.)

Because my father almost always worked second jobs, he made enough money to provide me with room and board a) while I worked part-time for the Park Forest Post Office 1966-1969, b) while I took classes at UIC 1966-1968, c) weekends during my first semester at NIU in 1969, and d) the summer of 1969. That enabled me to earn enough money to a) pay for my UIC and NIU expenses, b) buy a new 1968 Oldsmobile 442 in 1967, c) buy a new 1969 Dodge Charger SE in 1968, and d) graduate debt-free from NIU with a bachelor’s degree in management in 1970.

They all had a) less job-related work experience than I had, b) less job-related education than I had, c) fewer job-related professional certifications than I had or no professional certifications, and/or d) no professional license. I became a licensed CPA in 1981.)

JD Vance of Ohio suggested there could be dangerous consequences if schools don’t comply with last week’s ruling.” Democrats, Libertarians, Greens, Independents, and RINOs will continue to use DEI to discriminate against Republicans.

CBS NEWS
— Democrats say “Affirmative action in college admissions and why military academies were exempted by the Supreme Court.” During the 1980s and 1990s, GAO specifically exempted its employees who were veterans from suffering any kind of adverse impacts of massive GOP-led budget cuts. If I had been a veteran, GAO would not have forced me to take its early retirement “offer” in 1997 when I was 49 years old and I might still be a GAO employee. Further, a) GAO would not have forced me to suffer a $21,863/year (21%) pay cut in today’s dollars to transfer from IRS to GAO in 1980, b) GAO would not have delayed my promotions to back to GS-11, back to GS-12, and then to GS-13, and c) GAO would have promoted me to GS-14, GS-15, and Senior Executive Service. I say that because a) GAO audits IRS, b) 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 $92,279-$104,583/year, c) I had earn an MBA from Loyola in 1976, d) I had passed the CPA examination on my first attempt in 1979, e) I had earned a master’s degree in accounting from DePaul in 1980, f) I had passed the Certified Internal Auditor examination on my first attempt and became a licensed CPA in 1981, g) I had become a Certified Fraud Examiner in 1990, Government Financial Manager in 1994, Financial Services Auditor in 1996, and Forensic Accountant in 1997, and h) I had earned a master’s degree in financial markets and trading from IIT in 1997.

WASHINGTON POST
— Democrats ever-increasingly hint/imply/argue/shout that for minorities, females, and younger people to advance, they need more than Affirmative Action, they need government to officially take more and more and more opportunities away from Republicans who are White, male, and/or older and to give those opportunities to minorities, to females, and to younger people. It is called political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, and age discrimination.

— Democrats say “The boomers are retiring. See why that’s bad news for workers.” My Democrat GAO superiors outrageously forced me to take their early retirement “offer” in 1997 when I was 49 years old. By doing that, a) they wasted the almost 18 years of experience that I had gained working for GAO, the last 11 years of which at the GS-13 Step 1-10 levels, currently $109,732-142,650/year; b) they wasted the almost 9 years of experience that I had gained working for IRS, the last 5 1/2 years of which at the GS-12 Step 1-5 Levels, currently $92,279-$104,583/year; c) they wasted what I had learned earning a master’s degree in financial markets and trading from IIT in 1997; d) they wasted what I had learned passing the Certified Internal Auditor examination in 1981; e) they wasted what I had learned earning a master’s degree in accounting from DePaul in 1980; f) they wasted what I had learned passing the CPA examination in 1979; and g) they wasted what I had learned earning an MBA from Loyola in 1976.

— Democrats say “High-stakes, high-stress college essay stirs more anxiety under affirmative action ban.” I specially stated in my 1972 Loyola graduate business college application and in my 1976 DePaul graduate accounting college application that I wanted to take the courses to maintain and improve my job skills as an IRS employee. But my Democrat IRS superiors not only ignored that to disallow those courses, they outrageously, disgustingly, and unethically hinted/implied/argued/shouted that I lied in those applications and that I took the courses to get a job in the private sector.

In fact, Democratic love of country has always fallen far behind that of Republicans, even during the Obama era, when it hit a temporary high of just over 50% (Republicans at the time said they were extremely proud of the country at a rate of approximately 70%). Why is it that liberals in the United States are so much less proud of America than conservatives? These days, the answer typically given is America’s inherent sinfulness; there is nothing in the American founding worth conserving.)

— The Truth About Legacies – Ann Coulter (COMMENT: I should write a book about my critics/opponents whose parents have/had lots of money. I would focus on my critics/opponents whose parents a) bought them cars while they were in high school, b) got them into college, c) paid for their college expenses, and/or d) got them jobs. Neither of my outstanding parents attended college. My father was the first of my ancestors to earn a high school diploma. He worked in the office of a nasty chemical plant in Chicago Heights and almost always worked second jobs to pay the family’s bills. He died suddenly in 1969 when he was 47 and I was 21. My mother never attended high school. Because of the aforesaid, I did yard work 1962-1964; delivered newspapers 1962-1966; washed dishes 1964-1966; cleaned golf shoes, chipped slag, and pumped gasoline in 1966; and delivered mail 1966-1969. With the money that I earned, a) I bought a 1958 Chevrolet Bel Air in 1964, a new 1966 Pontiac Tempest Sprint in 1966, a new 1968 Oldsmobile 442 in 1967, and a new 1969 Dodge Charger SE in 1968; b) I paid for my college expenses at UIC 1966-1968 and at NIU 1969-1970; and c) I graduated debt-free from NIU in 1970 with a bachelor’s degree in management.)

NEW YORK TIMES
— Democrats say “At University of Chicago, a Debate Over Free Speech and Cyberbullying. A student objected to a class titled ‘The Problem of Whiteness’ and tweeted the lecturer’s photo and email address. Hate mail poured in.” and ask “What should the school do?” Democrats run the federal government. They do not allow free speech. They only allow speech which promotes the Democrat Party platform. They waste the careers of and they get rid of federal employees who object to any plank in the Democrat Party platform and especially its planks that promote dependency on government and charity, LGBTQ, abortion, mass/illegal immigration, booze, gambling, pot, and other vices, abolition of the Second Amendment, patronage, political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, age discrimination, religious discrimination, and national origin discrimination. I should write a book about how my superiors in the federal government wasted my career and got rid of me because I opposed the aforesaid planks.
https://www.nytimes.com/2023/07/03/us/university-of-chicago-whiteness-free-speech.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The university’s declaration of free speech principles, developed in 2014 and known as the Chicago statement, has become a touchstone and guide for colleges across the country that have struggled to manage campus controversies, particularly when liberal students shout down conservative speakers. Scores of schools have adopted it.)

— I wanted to work in the automotive industry, 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. That directly resulted in my accepting a job offer from IRS.

ACCOUNTING TODAY
— Democrats say “Accounting firms pursue non-traditional applicants in bid to diversify.” Because I did not pass the CPA examination until I was 30 years old, accounting firms had no interest in me. Further, they had no interest in me because I did not have a degree from an Ivy League university and I was White, male, non-veteran, Protestant, German American, and my ancestors had been in America since 1844. It is called Affirmative Action, Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion, that is, it is called government-mandated reverse discrimination, age discrimination, religious discrimination, and national origin discrimination.

(FROM THE ARTICLE: Consider the source. This is probably the most important one. How does the person posting about this story know what is happening? Is it an election official explaining the process? Is it a reporter from a trusted news organization who’s on the ground? Is it an account or a news outlet you’ve never heard of before? Here’s a quiz from the nonprofit News Literacy Project you can take to help evaluate if a news source is credible: https://newslit.org/tips-tools/news-lit-quiz-is-it-legit-vetting-news-sources-for-credibility/ .)
