— Republican Disarray on the House Speakership Nothing New – Bill Hansmann (COMMENT: GAO works for Congress. I worked for GAO 1980-1997. For more than any one person, GAO works for the Speaker of the House. Democrat Tip O’Neill was the Speaker while I worked for GAO 1980-1987, Democrat Jim Wright 1987-1989, Democrat Tom Foley 1989-1995, and Republican Newt Gingrich 1995-1997. While O’Neill was Speaker, GAO forced me to take a $21,863/year (21%) pay cut in today’s dollars to transfer from IRS to GAO and delayed my promotions to GS-12 and GS-13. While Wright was Speaker, GAO threw me off audits of IRS. While Foley and was Speaker, GAO always ranked me in the bottom half of my coworkers for pay-for-performance (PFP) purposes. While Gingrich was Speaker, GAO always ranked me in the bottom half of my coworkers for PFP purposes and forced me to take their early retirement “offer” in 1997 when I was 49 years old; my Democrat GAO superiors were beyond furious that Gingrich dramatically cut GAO’s budget 1995-1997. Gingrich was the Speaker while my lawsuit against GAO was pending 1998-1999 and Republican Dennis Hastert 1999-2005. My critics/opponents have always used against me that neither Gingrich nor Hastert ever came to my defense. Further, my critics/opponents have used against me that since 1980, with one exception in 1989, my Republican U.S. Representatives and my Republican U.S. Senators have never come to my defense.)

Bailey said he expects to get the former president’s endorsement and told reporters that if the elder Trump is convicted on any of the charges he faces, “my opinion (of the former president) won’t change.”)

Michael Rodriguez said. – Fran Spielman (COMMENT: My critics/opponents have always been furious a) that I got all my unused sick leave reinstated that I had earned working part-time for the Post Office 1966-1969 when I went to work for IRS in 1971 and b) that my nearly year of unused sick leave was treated as though I had worked that time to compute my Civil Service Retirement System pension when I was forced to take early retirement in 1997 when I was 49 years old. While I worked for the federal government for almost 30 years, I took far less sick leave than my Democrat superiors, supervisors, coworkers, and subordinates.)

— ALL OF THE FRONT PAGE: $20,000 grant from CHA puts homeownership within residents’ reach. A single mother who earlier this month closed on an East Garfield Park single-family home became the CHA’s new down payment program’s first recipient. – Elvia Malagón (COMMENT: Where did the downpayment(s)come from for the real estate that you bought? When I bought a new town home in University Park when I was 24 years old in 1972, it came from what I had earned working for IRS and for Firestone Stores. When I bought a studio condo in downtown Chicago in 1974, it came from want I earned working for IRS. When I bought a one bedroom condo in downtown Chicago in 1976, it came from the proceeds from selling my studio condo. When my wife and I bought 1017 East Harrison in Wheaton in 1978, it came from her savings. When my wife and I had 915 Cove Court in Wheaton built in 1984, it came from the proceeds of selling 1017 East Harrison. When we bought a small unit at Iron Gate Motor Condos in Naperville in late 2020, we paid for it with our savings. When we bought a much larger unit at Iron Gate early this year, we paid for it with proceeds of selling our smaller unit and with money that I inherited in 2022.)

https://wirepoints.org/newsguard-part-of-the-government-media-censorship-complex-promoted-by-chicago-tribune-to-combat-misinformation-wirepoints/
(FRM THE ARTICLE: A report by Media Research Center found showed that NewsGuard has for years rated left-leaning, establishment news sites consistently higher than conservative news sites. I can personally attest to that bias. I subscribed to NewsGuard over recent months to see for myself. Its bias is brazen in its 0 to 100 rankings for credibility, with 100 being best. These rankings may have changed a bit since I unsubscribed, but I, too, saw that left-leaning and establishment sights got far higher rankings than comparable conservative ones. The left’s Axios, for example, which actually tells you what progressive viewpoint you are supposed to think is important in every article, got a perfect 100. Fox got 69.5 but CNN got 80. Radically left Mother Jones got 87.5 but the conservative Federalist got a horrible 12.5. Our local Cook County Record, which is excellent though leans a bit conservative, got a paltry 32. The ridiculously biased and widely ridiculed Politifact got a perfect 100. The list goes on and on.)

CHICAGO TRIBUNE
— FRONT PAGE TOP OF FOLD: Pritzker, never shy about criticizing Republicans, calls for ‘common ground’ at national conference – Rick Pearson and Jeremy Gorner (COMMENT: RINO leaders have more in common with Democrats than with conservatives. RINO leaders reject the individual responsibility, traditional marriage and family, right to life, immigration, illegal drugs, Second Amendment, and/or equal opportunity (no race of gender based preference giving) planks in the Republican Party platform. I should write a book about the biggest RINO leaders in Illinois, Milton Township, and Wheaton since 2000. I would focus on those who have taken the most/biggest adverse actions against me. In 2021, RINO leaders in DuPage County, Milton Township, and Wheaton rallied together and ended my role as the Republican fundraiser for Wheaton Independence Day parades and fireworks; a role that I had since 2005.)

— Chicago faces a critical moment in its affordable housing crisis. It needs more federal funding. – Tracey Scott (COMMENT: What helped you afford housing? For me, it was my working for Firestone Stores 1970-1972, for IRS 1971-1980, and for GAO 1980-1997. For my wife, it was her working for the U.S. League of Savings Institutions 1970-1992. My Democrat IRS superiors, supervisors, coworkers, and subordinates were furious a) that I could afford to buy a new town home in University Park in 1972 when I was 24 years old, a studio condo in downtown Chicago in 1974, and a one bedroom condo in downtown Chicago in 1976 and b) that my wife and I could afford to buy 1017 East Harrison in Wheaton ( https://www.redfin.com/IL/Wheaton/1017-E-Harrison-Ave-60187/home/18135528 ) in 1978. My Democrat GAO superiors, supervisors, coworkers, and subordinates were furious that my wife and I could afford to have 915 Cove Court built in Wheaton ( https://www.redfin.com/IL/Wheaton/915-Cove-Ct-60189/home/18126600 ) in 1984. My Democrat superiors, supervisors, coworkers, and subordinates always a) painted themselves as being grossly underpaid and b) demonized me, denigrated me, and condemned me as being grossly overpaid.)

Of all places, the city picks a site that once contained a zinc smelting operation — a process that can potentially leach toxins into the soil. It’s another example of blunders on handling Chicago’s migrant crisis. – Editorial (COMMENT: Will the Democrats who run Chicago Heights put an migrant tent camp on the Stauffler Chemical Plant Superfund Site at 111th & Arnold Street on the east side of Chicago Heights? SEE: https://cumulis.epa.gov/supercpad/CurSites/calinfo.cfm?id=0500156 My father worked in the office of that plant from 1941 until he died suddenly in 1969 when he was 47 and I was 21.)

— Democrats have an antisemitism problem on the far left. Just as Donald Trump exposed a dark and ugly underbelly of the far right, the Hamas attacks have exposed a dark and ugly underbelly on the far left, S.E. Cupp writes. – S. E. Cupp (COMMENT: Many of my Chicago office Democrat GAO superiors, supervisors, coworkers, and subordinates acted like they were anti-Semites. They acted like they did not want to supervise, work with, and/or work for Jews. Because I am conservative, Republican, White, and male, they were beyond dumbfounded when in 1989, when I was 41 years old, volunteered to work for the office’s highest profile Jewish employee, a liberal Democrat female GS-15 (currently $152,527-$183,500/year). She managed the office’s audits of federal financial industry regulators. Beyond being Jewish, they did not want to supervise, work with, or work for her because she put them to shame because she had earned an MBA from the University of Chicago and she had passed the CPA examination on her first attempt. On top of that, she was very demanding, young, attractive, and wealthy. Because I had earned an MBA from Loyola in 1976, passed the CPA examination on my first attempt in 1979, earned a master’s degree in accounting from DePaul in 1980, and passed the Certified Internal Auditor Examination on my first attempt and became a licensed CPA in 1981, I was not intimidated by her many accomplishments. But they believed that she had been unfairly promoted over them because of her demographics. They were further dumbfounded when I got her appointed to serve on the board of directors of IIT’s graduate financial markets and trading program in 1992. While I worked for her, a) I became a Certified Fraud Examiner in 1990, Certified Government Financial Manager in 1994, Certified Financial Services Auditor in 1996, and Forensic Accountant in 1997 and b) completed 16 graduate evening courses and earned a master’s degree in financial markets and trading from IIT in 1997. Nevertheless, my other two Chicago office Democrat GAO superiors, both of whom were Jewish (one a Senior Executive Service member, currently $183,500/year, and the other a GS-15 male) succeeded in forcing her a) to play a very big role in forcing me to take their early retirement “offer” in 1997 when I was 49 years old and b) to give my job and my preferred corner office to my Black subordinate.)

https://www.thecentersquare.com/illinois/article_1ddd6e46-737e-11ee-89d9-73b7b802bd68.html

POLITICO ILLINOIS
— The governor said bringing people together is possible when government helps people succeed. “It actually brings people together if you can make it easier for people to raise their family, save for retirement, send their kids to college, buy a house. If we can make it just a little bit easier for people, I think that brings the temperature down.” The one issue that will always divide: Abortion rights, Pritzker said. “We’re just not going to come together” on that, he said. Pritzker’s kumbaya “didn’t last long,” reports the Tribune’s Rick Pearson and Jeremy Gorner. Soon after his remarks, the Democratic Governors Association sent out a fundraising email from Pritzker in which he wrote: “GOP radicals are working night and day to enact an extremist Republican agenda” to curb abortion, LGBTQ+ and voting rights, fighting gun safety and pushing discrimination and book bans.”

CHICAGO CONTRARIAN
— Stay or Go: Chicago’s Jewish Community Has a Choice to Make – BENJAMIN BLAIR
https://www.chicagocontrarian.com/blog/chicago-jewish-community-has-choice-to-make
(FROM THE ARTICLE: With rising anti-Semitism in the Windy City, does the urban equation still add up for the 85,000 Jews in Chicago? Roughly two percent of the world’s Jewish community resides in the greater Chicago area. According to a recent Brandeis study of the Chicagoland Jewish community, in 2020, there were 319,600 Jewish adults and children spread across 175,800 households in Chicago and its suburbs. Chicago’s Jewish population count was 85,000 at the time of the study. Chicago Jews are a diverse bunch. Some are observant, following as many of the 613 mitzvot (which comprise “doing good deeds” or “avoiding bad deeds”) as possible, including putting on Tefillin, observing shabbat and the holidays/festivals, and saying prayers daily. Others worship themselves, including Zen and the art of vaginoplasty. By the numbers, Chicago’s Jewish community was seven percent Orthodox (i.e., observant) in 2020 (the same as 2010). Conservative Jews, who generally believe they are fully observant with a few caveats, although the Orthodox would disagree, made up 16 percent of the population (down from 30 percent in 2010). Reform Jews (the Unitarians of the Jewish world) came in at 29 percent (down from 45 percent). Somewhat shockingly, 44 percent of the Jewish community had “no denomination” in 2020 (up from 14 percent in 2010). But the politics of Chicago’s Jewish community should surprise no one: 16 percent volunteer themselves as “extremely liberal”; 36 percent clock in as liberal; 18 percent are moderate; six percent are slightly conservative; 10 percent are conservative; and 2 percent are extremely conservative. In short: Most Chicago Jews don’t agree on much, but they tilt far to the political “left” outside the Orthodox community. In fact, many of Barack Obama’s biggest fanboys (inside baseball note: Who were generally responsible for driving his rise to fame even before his run for the White House) came from Chicago’s Jewish community – think the Pritzker family, for one.)

I would focus on the many big adverse actions that they took against me to get rid of me including forcing me to take their early retirement “offer” in 1997 when I was 49 years old a) because I was all of the aforesaid, b) because I complained about political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, and age discrimination, c) because I became an active member in a class action lawsuit in 1988 when I was 40 years old that charged them with reverse discrimination, age discrimination, and retaliation, and c) because I had been a union member while I worked for IRS 1971-1980 and for the Post Office 1966-1969.)

He died suddenly in October of 1969 when he tried to lift a heavy speaker at the Blue Note Tap in Momence.

AMERICAN THINKER
— Illegal aliens are rational investors – Andrew Hodge
https://www.americanthinker.com/blog/2023/10/illegal_aliens_are_rational_investors.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Migrants coming to the USA right now have to make a significant investment. There is a monetary investment in the form of payment given to the Mexican drug cartels to shepherd them to and across the border. Many migrants take flights from their home countries to Central or South America and then trek north. Flights costs money, which increases their investment after payments to the cartels. Often this also involves future payments earned as the result of working in this country, legally or not. These payments may be monetary or in the form of indentured labor. There are other forms of investment as well. Primary among them is human capital. Hiking from Central or South America to the U.S. border is not easy. It involves many weeks of time; many miles of walking; and risk of physical danger from snakes, terrain, and weather along the way. You have to sleep outside a lot, access to food is uncertain, and one has to negotiate the Rio Grande and the desert. We know that many are lost in transit. On top of that, there is the real risk of mistreatment by the cartels. Many, many adult and adolescent female migrants are sexually abused on their journey here. Children of both sexes are often abused as well. Once in the USA, they are often trafficked. Men and women are forced into indentured servitude by the cartels in different forms, some involving drug-dealing. The women are placed in brothels, displaying their wares on the streets of American cities. Think of the psychological and physical scars accrued by these people. That is a real cost that represents a very significant personal investment.)

The only thing that might slow them down is opposition from the ever-increasing number of rich wealthy limousine liberal Democrats, Libertarians, Greens, Independents, and RINOs who have invaded and taken over parts of DuPage County, Milton Township, and Wheaton.

— Democrats ask “Why are migrants coming to Chicago?” and acknowledge that “Asylum seekers in Texas are declaring Chicago as their desired city for resettlement.” Of course, migrants want to come to Chicago because of what Chicago is known for. Liberal Democrats run Chicago. Those liberal Democrats promote a) mass/illegal immigration, b) dependency on government and charity (free stuff), c) race and gender based preference giving, d) patronage, e) political affiliation discrimination, f) reverse discrimination, g) age discrimination, h) LGBTQ, i) abortion, j) booze, gambling, pot, and other vices, and k) abolition of the Second Amendment. Those liberal Democrats promote hated against Republicans who are conservative, White, male, older, non-poor, married, gun-owners, Christian, Protestant, Italian American, German American, and/or have ancestors who have been in America for a long time. Migrants want to come to Chicago because they want what liberal Chicago Democrats promote. My ancestors on my father’s side immigrated to Chicago in 1844, but they fled to Crete in 1854. I lived in downtown Chicago part-time 1974-1976 and full-time 1976-1978, but only because I got promoted to a job there. When my wife and I got married in 1978, we immediately fled to prosperous, safe, religious, conservative, and Republican Wheaton.

(FROM THE ARTICLE: The state of Illinois, for example, is providing up to $9,000 in rental assistance over a six-month period, including assistance with moving in and a starter kit to furnish the apartment. The Prairie State is funding temporary housing for “migrants,” including rented apartments and homes. Moreover, the city of Chicago has allocated an additional $4 million to assist migrants in obtaining temporary housing, to add to the $38 million contributed by the state. Perhaps if our military members serving overseas who’ve had their pay cut went AWOL and came across our southern border in the guise of illegal aliens, the Biden administration might fly them to the Land of Lincoln and set them up in a nice abode, partially furnished.)

FORBES
— Democrats say “How To Use Storytelling In Your MBA Applications.” In my 1971 Loyola MBA application, I stressed that I wanted to take graduate evening business courses to maintain and improve my job skills. I had just been hired by IRS and my employee manual encouraged me to take graduate business courses. Starting in 1972, I took and deducted one graduate evening business course at a time at Loyola and I earned an MBA from Loyola in 1976. But in 1978, my Democrat IRS superiors disallowed those 16 courses. They intentionally ignored what I had stated in my application. They argued that the courses a) did not maintain or improve my job skills, b) were not related to my job duties, c) were taken by me to get a job in the private sector, d) qualified me for a new trade or business, and e) were a distraction. I appealed to Tax Court and won. My Democrat IRS superiors would not have disallowed the courses if I had been a Democrat, minority, female, or veteran.

October 19, 2023

Democrats and RINOs ever-increasingly illegally flood America with citizens of foreign countries. Democrats because they vote for Democrats. RINOs because they want cheap labor. But the aforesaid is beginning to backfire a) because it harms citizens of America, and especially those who are poor and b) because it promotes religious and national origin conflicts.

Here’s how much you need earn to afford one in Chicago – Katlyn Brieskorn, Addy Bink (COMMENT: My Democrat IRS superiors, supervisors, coworkers, and subordinates were furious a) that I could afford to buy a new town home in University Park in 1972 when I was 24 years old, a studio condo in downtown Chicago in 1974, and a one bedroom condo in downtown Chicago in 1976 and b) that my wife and I could afford to buy 1017 East Harrison in Wheaton ( https://www.redfin.com/IL/Wheaton/1017-E-Harrison-Ave-60187/home/18135528 ) in 1978.

My Democrat IRS and GAO superiors ever-increasingly did everything that they could to demonize me, denigrate me, and condemn me as being promoted too fast and as being overpaid. My IRS superiors never promoted me beyond GS-12 and got rid of the IRS manager who promoted me in 1972, 1973, and 1974. My Democrat GAO superiors forced me to suffer a $21,863 (21%) pay cut in today’s dollars to transfer from IRS to GAO in 1980. They delayed my promotions, never promoted me beyond GS-13 and got rid of the GAO manager who had arranged for my transfer and who had promoted me to GS-13 in 1986. 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.

(FROM THE ARTICLE: With a federal lawsuit in effect against the Protect Illinois Communities Act, house republicans are hoping the Supreme Court will find the assault weapon ban unconstitutional. “We would ask everybody to not do it for now. The law doesn’t take effect until January 1st, 2024 so there is no reason to do it now. Especially while we have the lawsuit out there, hoping it to be unconstitutional,” explains, 90th District Rep. John Cabello. “People are saying it’s going to be overturned. No one knows what the Supreme Court is going to do. I’m a lawyer, I’ve been a lawyer for decades, don’t count on the Supreme Court to protect you,” says 65th District Representative Dave Vella. He says he is worried the low registration rate could be because people may not be aware of the registration requirement. “I don’t want law abiding citizens, for instance, calling saying my house was burglarized but not calling the police because they are scared of being in possession of assault weapons, and that’s kind of why I’m trying to help as much as I can,” he adds. Rep. Cabello is still pushing for 2nd amendment gun rights. “There is a reason that citizens of the US and the state of Illinois should be able to have these types of weapons, and it’s for the protection of their family,” says Cabello.)

— Oak Parker calls for donations to help for illegal immigrant ‘new neighbors’ living in village (COMMENT: Oak Park today. Your municipality tomorrow. When and where will Democrats pitch tents for illegals in your county, in your township, in your municipality, in your school district, in your precinct, and in your neighborhood? Why aren’t Democrats taking illegals into their homes instead of forcing them to live in tents? Democrats ever-increasingly promote more illegal immigration.)
https://westcooknews.com/stories/650372793-oak-parker-calls-for-donations-to-help-for-illegal-immigrant-new-neighbors-living-in-village
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Overwhelmed by the growing number of people in need, she emphasized the dire situation and the need for more tents and tarps as winter approaches, while also seeking support from faith communities to provide shelter and respite during the day. The result is a growing tent city located across from the Oak Park Police station located at 123 Madison St. “Thank you all for continuing to be so supportive of the humanitarian crisis that is going on. What is happening at the police station requires FEMA level support, but we are not getting it so here I am yet again, begging for help,” Biehler Desai said on Facebook. “Since the last time I posted just a few days ago we went thru nearly all 100 tents that were donated. Currently at Station 15 on Madison there are 140 people with 30 more in route as I type. There are 40 children, many sleeping outside in tents. WE NEED MORE TENTS AND TARPS (the tents do no good without the tarps). Every police station in the entire city is overflowing with more on the way.” “I know many of you have already bought one or more and for that I am very grateful. Please share with your friends and family so that we can get these much needed tents. If you have a connection with a faith community that would consider opening their doors for our new neighbors please ask them. We are reaching out to many churches to try and get some respite during the day so people do not have to be out in this weather. A big thank you to St Catherine/St Lucy who have been providing this along with a lot of other services 2x a week since this crisis began.” “This is the time we all have to step up, again and again and again. I thank you in advance for continuing to step up. The situation really is very dire.” “Here we go again with a new wish list for more desperately needed tents and tarps.” The illegal immigrant crisis has resulted in police stations overflowing in Chicago. That overflow has made its way into the suburbs now as well. In a previous post Biehler Desai said a bus showed up and dropped off those who are now sleeping outside. “Just hours ago, a bus arrived at the station with 20 plus people and there is literally no room. So, our new friends are now in the parking lot across the street from the station,” Biehler Desai said on Facebook. Biehler Desai is a registered nurse working at Advocate Health Care. She is taking the donations at her historic 2,461 square foot three bedroom, three bathroom located at 1140 N. Euclid Ave. in Oak Park.)

— Real Terror Threat Grows While Biden Wields Security State Against “MAGA Extremists” – Shane Harris (COMMENT: Since 2015, my critics/opponents have hinted/implied/argued/shouted that I am an MAGA extremist. They stress that I share many demographics with Trump: conservative, Republican, White, male, older, draft-avoider, gun-owner, non-poor, married, Protestant, German American, and our ancestors have been in America for a long time. I should write a book about my critics/opponents. I would focus on those who have lots of religious, government, political, and/or financial clout in Wheaton, Milton Township, DuPage County, and Illinois and who have taken the most/biggest adverse actions against me.)

EEOC has negatively impacted me big time since 1971 when I was 22 years old. To settle an EEOC complaint, Oldsmobile agreed to stop hiring Whites. Because of that, Oldsmobile withdrew a job offer that I had accepted. Because I had accepting that offer, my Firestone Stores boss rudely fired me. Because of that, I accepted a job offer from IRS. I had to have a job because I was helping support my mother and brother and my financial hardship draft deferment application was pending.)

— Antisemitism Among Muslim Migrants Unsettles a Germany Haunted by the Holocaust. Authorities prohibit pro-Palestinian demonstrations and displays of support for Hamas, as incidents of antisemitic crimes surge. – Bojan Pancevski (COMMENT: To force my many Jewish superiors and supervisors in the federal government to take many big adverse actions against me, my Democrat superiors did not hint/imply/argue/shout that I was pro-Muslim, but they did stress that I was conservative, Republican, Protestant, 100% German American, a Crete resident 1948-1972, and a Wheaton resident since 1978. My Democrat Chicago office GAO superiors were frustrated in 1990 when I volunteered to work for their highest profile Jewish manager. She was a GS-15 (currently $152,527-$183,500/year) who managed the office’s audits of federal financial industry regulators. My Democrat GAO coworkers did not want to work for her because she was Jewish and because she put them to shame because she had earned an MBA from the University of Chicago and she had passed the CPA examination on her first attempt. On top of that, she was very demanding, liberal, young, attractive, and wealthy. My Democrat GAO superiors were further frustrated when I got her appointed to serve on the board of directors of IIT’s graduate financial markets and trading program in 1992. While I worked for her, a) I became a Certified Fraud Examiner in 1990, Certified Government Financial Manager in 1994, Certified Financial Services Auditor in 1996, and Forensic Accountant in 1996 and b) completed 16 graduate evening courses and earned a master’s degree in financial markets and trading from IIT in 1997. Nevertheless, they succeeded in forcing her a) to play a very big role in forcing me to take their early retirement “offer” in 1997 and b) to give my job and my preferred corner office to my Black subordinate.)

FORBES
— Democrats say “Why Not Job Hopping Is Hurting Your Career.” Even though I suffered a $21,863/year (21%) pay cut in today’s dollars to transfer from IRS to GAO in 1980 when I was 31 years old, my Democrat GAO superiors, supervisors, coworkers, and subordinates did everything that they could to get me to go back to IRS. They would not have done that if I had been a Democrat, minority, female, younger, or veteran. That motivated me a) to complete the requirements for a master’s degree in accounting from DePaul in 1980, b) to pass the Certified Internal Auditor examination on my first attempt in 1981, c) to become a licensed CPA in 1981, d) to earn job-related professional certifications in 1990, 1994, 1996, and 1997, and to earn a job-related master’s degree from IIT in 1997. They delayed my promotions and never promoted me beyond GS-13. They kept me off audits of IRS except 1986-1988. They always ranked me in the bottom half of my coworkers for pay-for-performance purposes. They gave me bad job assignments and unfair performance expectations and appraisals. They assigned me to be supervised by, to work with, and supervise their most problematic employees. They ultimately forced me to take their early retirement “offer” in 1997 when I was 49 years old. I should write a book about the aforesaid. They would not have done that if I had been a Democrat, minority, female, or veteran. It is called up-or-out, political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, and age discrimination.)

What they did is called up-or-out, political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, and age discrimination. In 1973 when I turned 25, because they had not promoted me to GS-13, currently $109,732/year, my Democrat IRS superiors started citing my age and wrote me off as being too old to be promoted.

— A student with a 1590 SAT score was rejected by 16 colleges. Here’s why. – Jon Miltimore
https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/restoring-america/fairness-justice/student-with-1590-sat-score-rejected-by-16-colleges
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Zhong’s story has begun to gather some media attention, which was the subject of discussion at a recent House Committee on Education and the Workforce hearing. Yet almost all of the stories failed to mention the likely reason Zhong was rejected: He’s Asian. For years, colleges have been quietly discriminating against Asians in the admission process, admitting white, black, and Latino students with lower SAT scores and lower GPAs in the name of inclusivity. The problem for Asians is that, as a group, they tend to score really well. This means there’s an abundance of highly qualified Asians applying to universities each year. This would not be a problem for Asian students if not for race-conscious universities, which, in recent years, have demonstrated a preference for social equity and racial balance over merit. As a result, untold numbers of Asians have found themselves excluded from universities simply because of their race.)

POWER LINE
— IN WHAT SENSE ARE ILLEGALS ILLEGAL? – JOHN HINDERAKER (COMMENT: Of course, illegals do/will use their false identifications to vote for Democrats. Soon, if not already, Democrats and RINOs will have brought in enough illegals that no Republican will ever be elected again.)
https://www.powerlineblog.com/archives/2023/10/in-what-sense-are-illegals-illegal.php
(FROM THE ARTICLE: So there isn’t much left of the illegality that comes with sneaking across the southern border. The Biden administration, with help from blue states, has effectively rewritten–or, more accurately, repealed–the nation’s immigration laws. They had no legal power to do this. Congress never voted to abolish our immigration laws, nor would it. The acceptance of illegal immigration is opposed by an overwhelming majority of Americans, but we never had a chance to vote on it. This is perhaps the clearest indication of the fact that the cabal that controls America has zero regard for democracy, for democratic processes, or for the views of most Americans.)

TOWNHALL
— Seven New States – Jim Ross Lightfoot (COMMENT: How many illegals are in America, in Illinois, in your county, in your township, in your municipality, and in your school district? How soon, if not already, will they have enough voting power to get rid of Republicans once and for all?)
https://townhall.com/columnists/jimrosslightfoot/2023/10/17/seven-new-states-n2629934
(FROM THE ARTICLE: According to the United States Census Bureau, the most significant number floating around is 6,777,807. That represents the number of illegals who have entered our country since 2020. They came from around the world and flowed across our Texas – Mexico border. With them came pounds and pounds of drugs, millions of fentanyl pills, and we do not know how many Cartel members, murderers, child sex offenders, and others with criminal intent on their minds. As well, our Canadian border has been hemorrhaging. We do not see much about it on the news for some reason. 6,770,807. It is a huge number that is difficult for most of us to comprehend. Let us strive to put the 6.7 million amount into comparative numbers with something easy to understand. First, do a little research and find out the population of some of our smallest states. Those with populations under 1 million people are Wyoming, Vermont, the District of Columbia, Alaska, North Dakota, and South Dakota. Wyoming has the smallest population of 576,837, and Delaware is the largest among those with under 1 million people, with 989,957.)

NATION
— As Democrats ever-increasingly run America and give more and more and more employment preference to women, fewer and fewer and fewer men get college degrees. The Democrats who ran GAO in 1980 hired me because they could not find a qualified woman who would take the job. The Democrats who ran IRS in 1971 hired me because they could not find a qualified woman who would take the job. The Democrats who ran Firestone Stores 1970 hired me because they could not find a qualified woman who would take the job. The Democrats who ran the Post Office in 1966 hired me because they could not find a qualified woman who would take the job. My critics/opponents reject the equal opportunity (no race or gender based preference giving) plank in the Republican Party platform. I should write a book about them.

https://www.fox32chicago.com/news/chicago-rental-assistance-migrants-temporary-housing
(FROM THE ARTICLE: We are learning more about the migrant situation in Chicago. FOX 32 spoke to Cristina Pacione-Zayas, the city’s first deputy chief of staff, who provided insight into how the crisis is impacting the city and state financially. This week, 41 buses have arrived in Chicago, bringing the total number of migrants in shelters to 11,000, with 4,000 still sleeping on police station floors and staying at airports. Notably, 30% of migrants in Chicago are children, with the majority of them attending Chicago Public Schools. Currently, the state is funding temporary housing, including rented apartments and homes for migrants. The state is providing up to $9,000 in rental assistance over a 6-month period, which includes assistance with moving in and a starter kit to furnish the apartment. “That rent lasts for six months and ideally people would have started their legal process, secured legal work authorization and be able to sustain that apartment. And so the cost, or I guess the payment toward the landlord is based on market rate, it’s based on the configuration of the parament – how many rooms, where it’s located – all those things. And so it varies from place to place,” said Ald. Pacione-Zayas. FOX 32 reached out to inquire about the number of asylum seekers utilizing the rental assistance, but as of now, there has been no response from the city. The city has allocated $4 million to assist migrants in obtaining temporary housing, with the state contributing an additional $38 million. At present, 30 to 40 case management workers from Catholic Charities are actively working to secure temporary housing for thousands of migrants, with efforts underway to hire more.)

— Democrats say “Pritzker and his wife report income dropped by more than $16 million last year.” Has your annual income dropped? My annual income dropped by $74,606 (56%) in today’s dollars, from a $142,650 salary to a $63,144 pension, when my Democrat GAO superiors succeeded in forcing me to take the early retirement “offer” in 1997 when I was 49 years old. I had earned job-related professional certifications in 1997, 1996, 1994, 1990, and 1981. I had earned a job-related professional license in 1981. I had earned job-related master’s degrees in 1997 and 1980. Further, my annual income dropped by $21,863 (21%) in 1980 in today’s dollars because my Democrat GAO superiors succeeded in forcing me to take a downgrade from GS-12 Step 5 (currently $104,583) to GS-9 Step 10 (currently $82,720) to transfer from IRS to GAO. They would not have done the aforesaid if I had been a Democrat, minority, female, younger, and/or veteran. GAO audits IRS. My Democrat GAO superiors wasted my knowledge of IRS. They kept me off audits of IRS for all but 3 of the almost 18 years that I worked for GAO. By 1980, I had worked for IRS for almost 9 years, the last 5 1/2 years of which at GS-12 Step 1-5 Levels, currently $92,279-$104,583. I had almost completed the requirements for a master’s degree in accounting from DePaul. I had passed the CPA examination on my first attempt in 1979. I had earned an MBA from Loyola in 1976. I had earned a bachelor’s degree in management from NIU in 1970. Much of what I had done for IRS was very similar to what I would do for GAO including interviewing, financial analysis, and report writing.

https://www.dailyherald.com/submitted/20231013/the-first-in-dupage-gunshot-detection-system-installed-at-milton-township-building-
(FROM THE REPORT: Through the collaborative efforts of DuPage County Sheriff James Mendrick and DuPage County State’s Attorney Bob Berlin, Milton Township was introduced to Mid Tech Security which provides the new EAGL Scout Gunshot Detection System. Our primary concern is always the safety and well-being of our residents, which is why we have become the first township within Illinois to install this system. The installation took place Tuesday, Oct. 3, and went live Thursday, Oct. 12. The newly installed gunshot detection system was developed by the U.S. Department of Energy. This system analyzes acoustic characteristics, energy levels, and waveforms using advanced algorithms. As a result this system greatly reduces false alarms and allows for faster law enforcement reaction timing. This allows law enforcement to be notified and send a response within 4 seconds. We were thankful to see the respected law enforcement agencies and elected officials from DuPage County Sheriff’s office, the City of Wheaton, the Village of Glen Ellyn, and the Village of Carol Stream, and Milton Township who attended the information presentation Milton Township hosted on Oct. 12. Gunshot detection systems also can be integrated. All of the municipalities listed above will be notified in case of detection. Overall, Milton Township is here to protect our residents in an ever-changing world. seamlessly with existing access control, video surveillance systems, intercoms, and public address systems, creating an all-in-one solution.)

In its February 1978 article on me, Money Magazine hinted/implied/argued/shouted that IRS should disallow my education deductions. I had deducted tuition a) for graduate business courses at Loyola 1972-1976 and b) for graduate accounting courses at DePaul 1976-1977. I should write a book about that. Further, in its article, Money Magazine hinted/implied/argued/shouted that I was grossly overpaid. In today’s dollars, between 1971 and 1977, my IRS salary had increased from $52,022/year to $101,507/year, or 49%. IRS had promoted me to GS-9 in 1972, GS-11 in 1973, and GS-12 in 1974.

— 4,000 LOW-INCOME CHICAGO STUDENTS ON VERGE OF LOSING SCHOLARSHIPS – Dylan Sharkey (COMMENT: How much money did your father earn when you were in grade school? Because my father earned enough money working in the office of a nasty chemical plant in Chicago Heights to send me to Trinity Lutheran Grade School in Crete 1953-1961 and then to Hope Lutheran Grade School in Park Forest 1961-1962 to stay with the Missouri Synod, my critics/opponents have always demonized, denigrated, and condemned my father and I as being undeservedly filthy rich. But my father never earned more than $50,000/year in today’s dollars. He almost always worked second jobs to pay the family’s bills including playing piano in restaurants in the south suburbs, delivering eggs in Park Forest, and serving customers at the A&W in Steger. Consequently, to have money to buy cars and to pay for UIC and NIU expenses, I did yard work in Crete 1962-1964, delivered newspapers in Crete 1962-1966, washed dishes in Chicago Heights 1964-1966, cleaned golf shoes in Flossmoor and chipped slag and pumped gasoline in South Chicago Heights in 1966, and delivered mail in Park Forest 1966-1969. I should write a book about my critics/opponents. I would focus on how much money their parents had when they were young.)

GOPUSA ILLINOIS
— Suggested focus for weekly reports from conservative and Republican organizations – Dave Diersen
http://gopillinois.com

Political parties exist to help elect candidates who can and will defend and advance their platform. The Republican Party platform is conservative.

Given that, I suggest that weekly email reports from conservative and Republican organizations focus on reporting what their leaders have done to help elect candidates in the next election who can and will defend and advance the following planks in the Republican Party platform, for example: recruited candidates for the next election, held events, published articles, published links to articles of interest to their members, spoken at government meetings, raised money and given money to candidates, operated election headquarters, conducted training, distributed literature, posted signs, etc.:

– Individual responsibility
– Traditional marriage and family
– Right to life
– Immigration
– Illegal drugs
– Second Amendment
– Equal opportunity (no race or gender based preference giving)

Further, I suggest those that reports focus on what they have done to discourage Democrat promotion of:

– Dependency on government and charity
– LGBTQ
– Abortion
– Mass/illegal immigration
– Booze, gambling, pot, and other vices
– Further infringement of Second Amendment rights
– Patronage, political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, and age discrimination
