https://townhall.com/columnists/georgemullen/2020/07/27/americas-second-civil-war-has-already-begun-n2573081
(FROM THE ARTICLE: America’s second civil has already begun — sans the real shooting (and abject carnage), at least yet. If you doubt this, take a hard look at New York City, Washington DC, Atlanta, St. Louis, Chicago, Seattle, Portland, and most other major urban centers — our so-called civilized society is tearing itself apart. As such, the U.S. federal government must intervene to crush the violent insurrectionists wherever they rear their heads. The Insurrection Act of 1807 authorizes this action, and if our current situation doesn’t warrant deploying it, then what does? Bottom line, we must stop this insurgency before it goes ‘hot’ like our first Civil War. Non-violent protests should continue to be respected and protected — freedom of speech and the right to ‘peaceably’ assemble are bedrocks of our republic. However, politically-motivated protesters who use violence to attack officers of the law, physically harm others, and destroy property; as well as elected public officials who encourage or condone such acts (thus violating their oath to defend the U.S. Constitution), should be arrested and charged with insurrection against the United States, a.k.a. treason. This behavior needs to be stopped in its tracks. Serious federal measures must be deployed — the risks to our republic are growing by the day. Those alive when Fort Sumter was fired upon in 1861 could not have imagined the carnage it would unleash — more than 618,000 dead Americans in just four years. By continuing to allow our current situation to fester, we risk a similar dark outcome. Our first Civil War percolated with small clashes for several years before Fort Sumter turned it into a declared hot war. As such, letting the current situation continue to percolate ignores the lessons of history and may be a major miscalculation. We don’t want future historians to point to Minneapolis as our nation’s second Fort Sumter moment.)

— JULY 5, 1996 FLASHBACK: DOLE TAKES PULSE OF THE HEARTLAND – Dan Balz (DIERSEN: I attended this rally and that made my Democrat GAO superiors furious.)
https://www.washingtonpost.com/archive/politics/1996/07/05/dole-takes-pulse-of-the-heartland/913b56e4-dd07-4491-9bb3-7de45ad54d5f/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Republican presidential candidate Robert J. Dole came to the heart of Republican territory in Illinois for a Fourth of July parade and patriotic celebration and said America had endured as a great nation because of “the values of the heartland.” On a warm, summer morning, Dole joined thousands of local residents at the annual Wheaton parade, walking the length of the 1.3-mile parade route that was lined with people who cheered and applauded as he passed by. Wheaton lies in the heart of one of the most GOP counties in the country, a suburban Republican bastion that is crucial to his hopes of unseating President Clinton in November. The enthusiastic reception at the end of a week in which Dole had once again stumbled on the tobacco issue seemed to boost his spirits and buoy his confidence in the race to overtake Clinton. “We’re going to make it,” Dole crowed as he stopped to greet some of the well-wishers. “Wipe him out.” Later at a rally at Memorial Park, Dole recalled the spirit of 1776 as he extolled American virtues and recounted the nation’s triumph over Nazi Germany in World War II and the Soviet Union during the Cold War. “Look around the world this beautiful summer day and ask yourself what has endured,” Dole said. “All those empires have passed away. They were built on raw power and heartless ideology. After more sacrifice and suffering that can never be measured, they are gone.” What has endured, Dole said, are places that symbolize the strength of heartland America, like his home town of Russell, Kan., or like Wheaton. He added, “As long as we hold to the values of the way we began on July 4, 1776, the United States of America will always endure.” But Dole said the United States must never allow its defenses to be weakened, and pointed to the truck bombing in Saudi Arabia that killed 19 Americans as evidence of the terrorist threats and anti-American forces that exist around the world. “We don’t know exactly who’s responsible for this latest outrage,” he said. “The long list of suspects makes clear there is no shortage of those willing to attack innocent people. But together as a nation we resolve that the murderers will be captured and brought to justice — and they should be — and the punishment ought to be death.” Dole also offered his audience this bit of patriotic rhetoric: “I would tell this audience here today, there’s no place like America. There’s no place on Earth like America. This is America. Right today is America. The Fourth of July is America. This is America.” Wheaton is the county seat of DuPage County, the biggest Republican county in Illinois, which has regularly supplied enough votes to help Republican candidates offset Democratic Chicago. Clinton captured only 31 percent of the vote in DuPage four years ago, but President George Bush received just 47 percent, far below the normal level of support for Republicans. Gov. Jim Edgar (R), who accompanied Dole today, said the Republican candidate needs a big victory in suburban Chicago and still has some ways to go. “He’ll do very well downstate,” Edgar said, referring to the counties outside the Chicago metropolitan area. “In the suburbs, the key is to carry it by as big a margin as possible. . . . He needs to be here more. They just don’t know him as well as they should.” Gayle Franzen, the county executive and a Republican, agreed that Dole needs to spend more time in the suburbs but said by November the Republican candidate will be in strong shape here. “The whole integrity issue is sticking {on Clinton},” he said. “In this county {integrity} means everything. Dole is going to set the tone for this.” Walking the parade route this morning, Dole often set a brisk pace, but he paused along the way to shake hands and pose for photographs with those who had come to see him. Local residents said this year’s crowd was larger than usual because of Dole’s participation. “Even a 100-year-old woman at the nursing home knew Dole was coming to town,” said Susan Whelton, who watched Dole pass by. The parade was filled with fire trucks and old cars and floats and the parade route was lined with families with small children. “Go citizen Bob!” yelled one man as the candidate walked by. Jon and Leigh Ann Vock said they had reserved their places along the parade route by putting down chairs at 5 p.m. on Wednesday, 12 hours earlier than usual. Both said they were strong Dole supporters. “If he picks a candidate {for vice president} who’s pro-life, we’ll really, really be supportive,” she said. “We’ll go door to door.” Jim and Diane Neptune also said they support Dole. “We’re Republicans,” she said. Her husband said that unless Dole can come up with something fresh, “it’s going to be a tight race” against Clinton. “But there’s still a lot of time. It’s good that he is out here. People need to know who he is.”)

DAILY HERALD
— ‘Unmasked’ rally defies school virus rule, Pritzker critique – AP
https://www.dailyherald.com/article/20200725/news/307259926/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The ‘Million Unmasked March,’ which took its name from the social-justice march a quarter-century ago, drew about 250 people, including a stalwart group of counter-demonstrators who periodically let loose their own shouted protests from across the street. It came a day after Pritzker put four of Illinois 102 counties on ‘warning level’ status for dangerously increased numbers of COVID-19, which officials traced to ‘risky behavior’ such as large gatherings and out-of-state travel. Saturday, officials announced 1,426 newly confirmed cases of the illness, with 12 new deaths. COVID-19, the illness caused by the coronavirus, has now contributed to 7,397 deaths among 169,883 cases, although many of those infected have recovered.)

From what I see as a resident of DuPage County, DuPage County’s 4th District, Milton Township, and Wheaton since 1978 and as a resident of Wheaton’s West District and Milton Township’s Precinct 9 since 1984, it seems ever-increasingly clear that Democrats are being steered into the aforesaid political jurisdictions. It seems ever-increasingly clear that Democrats are being told that Republicans are rapidly dying off and that Democrats will soon control all the units of government in DuPage County. Further, it seems ever-increasingly clear that Democrats are being told that those who are older, conservative, Protestant, German American, heterosexual, married, and those whose ancestors have been in America for a long time are also rapidly dying off. Further, it seems ever-increasingly clear that Democrats are being told about the ever-increasing number of votes that Democrat candidates get in the aforesaid political jurisdictions. Further, it seems ever-increasingly clear that those who are minority, female, younger, and/or non-poor AND who are religious, conservative, and/or Republican are being steered away from the aforesaid political jurisdictions.

— Reparations Subcommittee Decides on Three Housing Programs, $25,000 for Each – Larry Gavin
https://evanstonroundtable.com/Content/City-News/City-News/Article/Reparations-Subcommittee-Decides-on-Three-Housing-Programs-25-000-for-Each-/15/26/18318
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Eligibility of Applicants Under the housing remedy proposal, people seeking to participate in one of the three housing programs must meet one of the following two criteria: First, “Be a Black resident and suffered discrimination in housing as a result of City ordinance, policy or practice;” OR Second, “is a direct descendent of a Black Evanston resident who resided in Evanston between 1919 to 1969 who suffered discrimination in housing as a result of City ordinance, policy or practice.” (Sometimes called the “legacy” provision). These criteria have not change since they were last discussed by the Subcommittee. Ald. Simmons said, “I think that is an area that we are going to have to rely heavily on our law staff.” Nick Cummings, Deputy City Attorney, said applicants must demonstrate that they meet one of the two criteria. He said if an applicant was seeking to qualify under the legacy provision, there were a lot of historical documents, recorded deeds, census data and other records available. In addition, Dino Robinson, the founder of Shorefront, and Dr. Jenny Thompson, Director of Education at the Evanston History Center, are putting together a report providing information about historic policies and practices, both governmental and societal, that discriminated against Black people in Evanston. Whether an applicant could rely on this report to prove a legacy claim is not yet clear. Mr. Cummings added that if a person was claiming they personally suffered discrimination at the hands of the City, “that is certainly something else entirely different and may require or may necessitate the assistance of an attorney,” Mr. Cummings said, “but I can’t say that for certain.” The Subcommittee has not yet considered who would decide if an applicant satisfied one of the two criteria. Mr. Cummings said, “It certainly is the understanding, you don’t expect it to be City staff to make those decisions solely.” He suggested that the determination might be made by the proposed Stakeholders Reparations Authority.)

DAILY HERALD
— FRONT PAGE TOP OF FOLD WITH BIG COLOR PICTURE: Mixed views in suburbs, too, about Columbus statue coming down in Chicago – Mari Pyke (DIERSEN: How soon will hate-filled Trump-haters succeed in tearing down statutes of all those who were White, male, older, non-poor, heterosexual, married, conservative, patriotic, Republican, American, gun owners, Christian, German American, and those whose ancestors have been in America for a long time?)
https://www.dailyherald.com/news/20200724/mixed-views-in-suburbs-too-about-columbus-statue-coming-down-in-chicago
(FROM THE ARTICLE: “Columbus wasn’t actually a hero for our people,” said Native American Joseph Standing Bear Schranz, president of the Midwest SOARRING Foundation, based in Lockport. “He didn’t discover America. We were already here.” But for St. Charles businessman Ron Onesti, the statue is a symbol of the hard work and dreams of his forefathers when they arrived in America as immigrants from Italy. “We are obviously deeply saddened not only by what happened (removal of the statues) but the method by which it happened,” said Onesti, president of the Italian American Sports Hall of Fame. “We as a community have worked very hard to keep our heritage alive. By just taking away those statues, you are disrespecting the contributions Italian Americans made to the development of the city and the country.” . . . “I’m very happy it was taken down, and it should have been many years ago,” said Schranz, who is half Ojibwe and half German. “I was never sure why there are statues in his honor. He never did anything very honorable.” . . . Onesti, CEO of The Onesti Entertainment Corp. that manages the Arcada Theatre in St. Charles, said he understood wanting to remove the statues as a short-term solution to stop the violence, “but it’s crucial the Italian American community be involved in discussions about their future.” “We, too, as a culture have been discriminated against and stereotyped,” Onesti said. His grandparents arrived in America with “just a few dollars in their pockets,” he said, and worked hard to create a new life for their children. “We will not let their efforts go by the wayside. You can take our statues, but you can’t take our spirit away.”)

https://www.dailyherald.com/news/20200723/naperville-planning-for-human-rights-commission

This means it could handle cases that arise because of race, color, natural origin, ancestry, sex, sexual orientation, marital status, order of protection status, pregnancy, religion, age, disability, military status, unfavorable discharge from military service or income.)

HERALD NEWS
— Bolingbrook mayor plans to retire Village trustee: ‘He got things done for Bolingbrook’ – FELIX SARVER
https://www.theherald-news.com/2020/07/23/bolingbrook-mayor-plans-to-retire/ai6pgnc/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: After roughly 35 years, Roger Claar plans to no longer serve as the mayor of Bolingbrook. Claar did not respond to calls inquiring about his retirement Thursday and even hung up the phone after he was contacted by The Herald-News, but Village Trustee Michael Carpanzano said Claar is retiring because he wants to spend more time with his family. Carpanzano said he didn’t think there was another mayor besides Claar more connected with residents. “Everyone knows him as the guy who is going to get things done and he got things done for Bolingbrook,” Carpanzano said. Carpanzano said Claar’s last village board meeting will be on Tuesday. He said Claar has hinted at his retirement all year and that he plans to spend time in California with his granddaughter. He said Claar will likely continue to spend time in Illinois as well. Claar first became mayor in 1986 to fill a vacancy and has been elected to the post 10 times since then. Carpanzano credited the explosion of Bolingbrook’s population over the decades to Claar. “He brought not only an industrial base to the town but a retail base, a hospital, an airport, a beautiful country club and entire outdoor shopping center. His vision really saw all that through,” Carpanzano said. Claar was the subject of a 2007 Chicago magazine profile that noted during his time as mayor he’s overseen a “huge increase” in the range of housing prices, a “near doubling” of the village’s population and that he’s “brought in business, most obviously in the form of the shallow canyon of distribution centers you drive through on I-55 between Chicago and I-80.” “Along the way, he’s bolstered himself just as dramatically, amassing a huge campaign war chest and making strategic political ties to become one of the most powerful mayors in Illinois,” according to Chicago magazine. Claar’s mayoral opponent Jackie Traynere, a Will County board member, claimed Claar plans to remain in control of Bolingbrook and fund the next mayor’s campaign. “The only reason he’s not putting his name on the ballot is because he knows he’ll be beaten,” Traynere said. She suggested Claar would support Bolingbrook Deputy Mayor Michael Lawler as the next mayor. Lawler failed to respond to a message and Claar failed to return a call on the issue on Thursday afternoon. Traynere said when people look at communities that surround Bolingbrook, such as Naperville and Romeoville, they see positive growth. But what they don’t see in those communities is the massive debt that Bolingbrook has, she said. “So when you give Roger credit for the growth, you need to give him credit for the debt,” she said. Traynere fell 151 votes short in the 2017 election that highlighted Claar’s controversial support of U.S. President Donald Trump. Traynere said Claar inviting Trump to Bolingbrook Golf Club — also known as the “Rog Mahal” — was the catalyst for her run for mayor. Trump’s visit in 2016 led to up to 200 people protesting outside the golf club for several hours. Claar has said he doesn’t agree with everything Trump says but also thinks what Trump says has been twisted and distorted. Claar’s support of Trump also attracted vandalism at his home on Sept. 20, 2017, from Rae Tuszynski, 32, who spray-painted a message on his garage calling him a “Nazi Trump lover” and at least seven swastikas on his property. Tuszynski pleaded guilty to threatening a public official, criminal damage to property and committing a hate crime against Claar. “With all due respect, I’m a transgender Puerto Rican and you (have a) hate crime against an old white man,” Tuszynski said.)

WJOL
— Longtime Mayor Of Bolingbrook Retires Months Before His Term Expires
https://www.wjol.com/wjol-exclusive-longtime-mayor-of-bolingbrook-retires-months-before-his-term-expires/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The Mayor of Bolingbrook will not finish out his last term in office. Mayor Roger Claar has said he would not seek re-election next year but is now cutting his time short. He will retire at the end of this month on July 31st. Mayor Claar stated at the last council meeting that Tuesday, July 28th will be his last council meeting. Mayor Claar tells WJOL that his 5-year old granddaughter who lives in California with his daughter Lindsey and her husband Trevor is calling his name. He wants to spend more time with his wife Pat and will be traveling to California a lot, although he says he will not be moving there. He’ll be 75 in November and says his daughter who is 37 grew up while he was a very active mayor and wasn’t home much. While she was OK with that, Claar says he doesn’t want to do the same with his granddaughter. A replacement will be selected by the existing board of trustees and state statute dictates the choice must come from the board. Claar was a village trustee for five years and appointed Mayor in 1986 to fill a vacancy. He is Bolingbrook’s longest-serving Mayor. He is the only Bolingbrook Mayor to be elected to consecutive terms. He was elected Mayor in 1987, and every 4 fours year after that.)

https://patch.com/illinois/bolingbrook/longterm-bolingbrook-mayor-retire-july-31
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Bolingbrook Mayor Roger Claar announced during the July 14 Village Board Meeting that the meeting on Tuesday will be his last as he is retiring from the office prior to the completion of his term, and will not be seeking re-election. He will retire on July 31, WJOL reported. Claar told WJOL that he wants to spend more time with his 5-year-old granddaughter who lives in California with her parents Lindsey and Trevor. He said he wants to spend more time with his wife Pat, travelling to see his daughter and her family. Claar appointed mayor in 1986 to fill a vacancy, while he was still a village trustee. Since then, he has been re-elected every four years. Earlier this month, Will County Board member Jackie Traynere (D-Bolingbrook) announced her plans to run for mayor of Bolingbrook during the April 6, 2021 election. During the 2017 mayoral election that was rife with accusations of deception, negative campaigning and connections to President Donald Trump, Traynere had conceded to Claar who had won by just 151 votes with over 13,000 votes cast that night. Village Trustee Michael Carpanzano said in a social media post that a replacement will be selected by the existing board of trustees, and state statute dictates the choice must come from the board.)

https://www.facebook.com/BenBierlyforILStateSenate43/videos/204124787706259/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: A small, mostly white group of suburban Republican candidates looking to unseat various Democratic lawmakers this fall — in a variety of state and federal elected offices — called a news conference at the scene of Monday’s mass shooting in Chicago’s Gresham neighborhood, a storied African American community. Mark Curran, the former Lake County sheriff who’s challenging incumbent U.S. Sen. Dick Durbin, called the shooters “evil,” and went on say that crime and politics have been interwoven for decades. Saying mobster Al Capone once “owned the elected officials in Chicago,” Curran suggested that “today it’s the Black Gangster Disciples …” before rattling off the names of a few other street gangs. He then accused Durbin of “standing on the floor of the U.S. Senate” and saying “he doesn’t want President Trump to send in any help with regards to the streets of Chicago.” You can watch the news conference, where several candidates said expanding the police force was among the solutions to tamping down crime, here. In a letter to the president dated Tuesday, Durbin and fellow Illinois Democratic U.S. Sen. Tammy Duckworth stated in part: “You have indicated you may send additional federal agents to the city Chicago to conduct policing activities that traditionally are handled by local law enforcement. We strongly urge you to refrain from taking this action, which is opposed by Governor Pritzker, Mayor Lightfoot and other local leaders.”)

— AS THE DEMOCRAT PARTY’S STRANGLEHOLD ON CHICAGO TIGHTENS: ‘I Can’t Believe We Survived,’ Uber Driver Says After He Was Attacked By Large Group Of Teens Downtown – Jermont Terry
https://chicago.cbslocal.com/2020/07/20/i-cant-believe-we-survived-uber-driver-says-after-he-was-attacked-by-large-group-of-teens-downtown/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: “I can’t believe we survived” – those are the words of a terrified Uber driver who was caught in the middle of hundreds of teens getting pushed through the downtown area by Chicago Police. As CBS 2’s Jermont Terry reported, the driver had to jump the curb and then go the wrong way down Washington Street on the sidewalk just to escape the group, which targeted him at a red light. On Monday night, the attack was raising bigger questions about what is being done to handle those rowdy teens on weekends. Standing on the corner of Wabash Avenue and Washington Street brings back horrible memories for the Uber driver. “I’m just scared, and it’s going to take a while to regain the trust of the city, I guess,” he said. The driver is fearful after his Kia ended up getting each and every window busted out – all by a group of teens who were getting ushered by police from Millennium Park on July 4th weekend. “I knew they were coming I said, ‘Oh f***, and so they came and jumped on the car and started dancing around on the hood,” he said. But the driver said some in the crowd turned violent and tried opening the doors. What happened next had the driver and his two passengers in disbelief. “And then they broke in the driver window, and that’s where I knew we were in big trouble, because they were trying to grab me, and I heard the back rear window shatter as well,” he said. A pitchfork crashed through the rear window, coming within inches of his Uber passengers. “Who knows what would have happened if they were able to pull us out of the vehicle? It seem like they wanted blood,” he said. “It’s terrifying just to think that there’s just basically a school a piranhas just roaming the streets of Chicago, and we don’t know where they’re going to show up.” CBS 2 first exposed how these groups of 300 to 400 have roamed the Loop and downtown for consecutive Saturdays. The CPD said it has tactical units ready to deal with the crowds. But with teens turning violent, many are concerned it will only get worse.)

CHICAGO TRIBUNE

https://www.chicagotribune.com/nation-world/ct-nw-st-louis-couple-charged-mark-patricia-mccloskey-20200720-trwnxyn4qvet5dmrgovjawpwce-story.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Several Republican leaders have condemned Gardner’s investigation, including President Donald Trump, Missouri Gov. Mike Parson and Sen. Josh Hawley, who has urged Attorney General William Barr to undertake a civil rights investigation of Gardner. Parson said in a radio interview Friday that he would likely pardon the couple if they were charged and convicted. Missouri Attorney General Eric Schmitt said in a statement Monday that he filed a brief requesting that the charges be dismissed under the state’s Castle Doctrine. “The right to keep and bear arms is given the highest level of protection in our constitution and our laws, including the Castle Doctrine,” Schmitt said in the statement. “This provides broad rights to Missourians who are protecting their property and lives from those who wish to do them harm.” Sen. Josh Hawley, R-MO, said on Twitter that the charges were an “unacceptable abuse of power and threat to the Second Amendment.” He called for a federal civil rights investigation into the St. Louis Circuit Attorney’s Office to “determine whether this investigation and impending prosecution violates this family’s constitutional rights.” Gardner said Trump, Parson and others are attacking her to distract from “their failed approach to the COVID-19 pandemic” and other issues.)

https://www.bizpacreview.com/2020/07/20/michelle-malkin-violently-attacked-by-blm-antifa-in-denver-sends-s-o-s-to-trump-949089
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Outspoken conservative firebrand Michelle Malkin was attacked Sunday by Black Lives Matter activists intent ion shutting down a “Back the Blue” rally in Denver. The peaceful pro-police event was underway at Civic Center Park when BLM activists and others wearing black-bloc and armed with collapsible batons — Malkin identified them online as Antifa — crashed the stage. Malkin can be heard in video of the attack screaming at the violent mob to get back. Not mincing words, she called the woman attacking them “b*tches” in a tweet, and said she was sprayed in the face with aerosol string and another man was beaten with a longboard. Video of the incident shows aggressive antagonists being allowed to walk right up to the very edge of the stage. Malkin shared a photo of the man she said was beaten by the mob. Malkin noted that police sat idly by doing nothing as the chaos ensued. According to the Denver Post, police “attempted to form a line around the two groups, but could not completely separate them.” The newspaper also said Denver Police Chief Paul Pazen asked the group “to reschedule or move the pro-police rally.” Malkin tweeted: “Denver Police Chief Pazen, who marched with BLM last month, let pro-police patriots get beaten and silenced.” In addition to BLM, the counter-demonstrators included the Party for Socialism and Liberation and the Afro-Liberation Front, according to KMGH-TV. The ABC affiliate reported the mob was “armed with pots and pans, whistles, hand-held sirens and other noise making gear,” and that they “crashed the Pro-Police rally and drowned out those trying to speak.” Almost reluctantly, KMGH-TV acknowledged that there were “a few scuffles between members of the two groups.” “There’s not much else to say other than every cop here is a terrorist by association,” Black Lives Matter supporter Hale Rardin told the station. Malkin took exception to how the local reporter she responded to above, KUSA-TV reporter Kyle Clark, tried to painted a “moral equivalency” between the peaceful pro-police group and the violent BLM mob attacking them. Pepper balls and a can of pepper spray were later deployed to disperse BLM activists, after police say some people “made aggressive moves” toward officers. In a somewhat foreboding wrap up, Malkin tweeted: “I’m ok. America is not.” An assessment that has merit, given the radical lawlessness seen from the left today, who intend to shut down all speech not in line with their hard-left views and are more than willing to use violence to do so, if necessary. This coming as law enforcement has been cast as the bad guys in America by both the Democratic Party and their media allies, emasculated and beaten back on their heels. Here’s a full-length Periscope video of the rally shared by Malkin — note that she also tagged President Trump, sending an SOS to restore law and order in American streets:)

But my Democrat GAO superiors succeeded in a) keeping me off audits of IRS 1980-1985, b) stopping me from being promoted to GS-13 until 1986, c) keeping me off audits of IRS after 1988, and d) forcing me to take their early retirement “offer” in 1997 when I was 49 years old. They would not have done that if I had been a Democrat, minority, female, and/or veteran. After I transferred from IRS to GAO in 1980, I a) completed the requirements for a master’s degree in accounting from DePaul in 1980, b) passed the Certified Internal Auditor examination on my first attempt in 1981, c) became a licensed CPA in 1981, d) became a Certified Fraud Examiner in 1990, e) became a Certified Government Financial Manager in 1994, f) became a Certified Financial Services Auditor in 1996, g) became a Forensic Accountant in 1997, and h) completed the requirements for a master’s degree in financial markets and trading from IIT in 1997.)

ABC7
— AS THE DEMOCRAT PARTY’S STRANGLEHOLD ON CHICAGO TIGHTENS: DISGUSTING, OUTRAGEOUS, RACIST: Chicago Columbus statue protest: Elected officials, activists condemn Chicago Police Department actions after Grant Park rally escalates, some hospitalized Protesters had initially gathered by Buckingham Fountain for a Black Lives Matter demonstration
https://abc7chicago.com/community-events/chicago-officials-activists-condemn-cpd-response-to-columbus-statue-protest/6323279/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Some members of the Chicago City Council commented on the protest on Twitter. Ald. Carlos Ramirez-Rosa said, “Black and Indigenous Chicagoans and people from all across the city came together to do what our so-called progressive mayor refused and failed to do.” Ald. Daniel La Spata said, “Chicago may be the only ‘liberal’ city willing to brutalize Black and brown youth to protect a symbol of white supremacy.” At 9 a.m., several aldermen and Illinois officials gathered to condemn CPD’s response to the protest. . .United Working Families members Alderman Carlos Rosa, Ald. Byron Sigcho Lopez, Cook County Commissioner Brandon Johnson, state Rep. Delia Ramirez, state Sen. Robert Peters, and Democratic Nominee Lakesia Collins planned to attend. Supportive elected officials who are unable to attend include Ald. Rossana Rodriguez Sanchez, Ald. Daniel La Spata, and Ald. Jeanette Taylor, the statement said. Participating organizations include Black Youth Project 100, Black Lives Matter Chicago, Chi-Nations Youth Council, the Black Abolitionist Network and United Working Families. The Italian American Human Relations Foundation of Chicago also responded to the protest, saying in part “This was the work of evil minded people. They have been fueled by an educational system too lax in its reliance on a poor curriculum re the education of the legacy of Columbus, and abetted by the majority of the media who refuse to question the baseless revisionist history of the Columbus saga.” When asked for a comment from the mayor, a spokesman for Lightfoot’s office pointed to a Twitter thread. In it, Lightfoot said “I unequivocally support and will always fight for the rights of individuals to peacefully protest on any issue. The history and stories of the lives of Indigenous People here in Chicago need to be lifted up and celebrated. There is a dialogue that must be had to honestly confront the deeply ingrained history of racism and discrimination that has subjected Black, Indigenous and other communities of color in our city and our nation for too long.” She went on to say her team has been developing a plan to engage in a comprehensive review of the city’s public icons to identify what should change and where new monuments and icons should be erected. She said more details are coming. Some protesters came with frozen water bottles, rocks, bottles, cans and other gear to throw at officers, Lightfoot said. “People in the crowd also threw fireworks and other incendiary devices at police, causing injury in several cases. These violent acts are unacceptable and put everyone at risk,” LIghtfoot said. She also noted there have been several reports of police using excessive force. “These are also unacceptable,” she said. “This is a difficult moment in our history. I know Chicagoans are frustrated and impatient for change. It is my sincere hope that we can strike the right balance to ensure people can rightfully express themselves & their First Amendment rights, but do so in a way that does not put anyone’s physical safety at risk. That would be consistent with our long history of peaceful protest.” Anyone whom the police has mistreated should file a complaint through the Chicago Civilian Office of Police Accountability or by dialing 311, Lightfoot said.)

ABC7
— AS THE DEMOCRAT PARTY’S STRANGLEHOLD ON CHICAGO TIGHTENS: DISGUSTING, TRAGIC: Chicago Columbus statue protest: Elected officials, activists to condemn Chicago Police Department actions after Grant Park rally escalates, some hospitalized (DIERSEN: Those who side with those who attempted to pull the statue down are filled with hatred against those who are law enforcement officers, Trump supporters, conservative, patriotic, Republican, American, White, male, older, heterosexual, married, non-poor, gun owners, Christian, Italian American, German American, and/or those whose ancestors have been in America for a long time.)
https://abc7chicago.com/community-events/chicago-officials-activists-to-condemn-cpd-response-to-columbus-statue-protest/6323279/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Ald. Carlos Ramirez-Rosa said, “Black and Indigenous Chicagoans and people from all across the city came together to do what our so-called progressive mayor refused and failed to do.” Ald. Daniel La Spata said, “Chicago may be the only ‘liberal’ city willing to brutalize Black and brown youth to protect a symbol of white supremacy.” At 9 a.m., several aldermen and Illinois officials plan to condemn CPD’s response to the protest. “Social media and press reports from Friday night confirmed that SWAT buses, pepper spray, and press suppression resulted in severe injuries to young protestors,” a statement said. United Working Families members Alderman Carlos Rosa, Ald. Byron Sigcho Lopez, Cook County Commissioner Brandon Johnson, state Rep. Delia Ramirez, state Sen. Robert Peters, and Democratic Nominee Lakesia Collins plan to attend. Supportive elected officials who are unable to attend include Ald. Rossana Rodriguez Sanchez, Ald. Daniel La Spata, and Ald. Jeanette Taylor, the statement said. Participating organizations include Black Youth Project 100, Black Lives Matter Chicago, Chi-Nations Youth Council, the Black Abolitionist Network and United Working Families. The Italian American Human Relations Foundation of Chicago also responded to the protest, saying in part “This was the work of evil minded people. They have been fueled by an educational system too lax in its reliance on a poor curriculum re the education of the legacy of Columbus, and abetted by the majority of the media who refuse to question the baseless revisionist history of the Columbus saga.”)
