— Chicago honors Vietnam veterans with restored memorial (COMMENT: I should write a book about my critics/opponents who have used the tragic death of my Crete-Monee High School classmate Charles Gattis ( https://www.vvmf.org/Wall-of-Faces/18083/CHARLES-M-GATTIS-JR/page/2/ ) against me the most. I would focus on my Democrat superiors in the federal government. Gattis died on July 5, 1967 from injuries he suffered in his first deployment in Quang Tri province. My critics/opponents stressed that unlike Gattis who enlisted, I avoided the Vietnam War draft with student deferments 1966-1970 and a financial hardship draft deferment 1970-1971. When Gattis died, I was working for the Park Forest Post Office, earning credits toward a Civil Service Retirement System pension, and driving a 1966 Pontiac Tempest Sprint. My critics/opponents stressed that I paint myself as being conservative, Republican, and patriotic. They stressed that because of my health problems, if I had not avoided the draft, I would not have been sent into combat anyway. I could not run because I had a bone disease, my eyesight could not be corrected to 20/20, and I had partial red/green color blindness. They painted me as being a big coward and a big hypocrite. They stressed that because I avoided the draft, I was able to buy a 1968 Oldsmobile 442 in 1967 and a 1969 Dodge Charger SE in 1968 and that I drove that Charger from NIU to Florida for spring breaks in 1969 and 1970. They called me “Daytona Dave.” The Vietnam War did not end until April 30, 1975. Prior to then, while my peers were dying in Vietnam, I earned a bachelor’s degree in management from NIU in 1970. I bought a new 1972 Covette in 1971. I bought a new town home in University Park in 1972. I bought a studio condo in downtown Chicago in 1974. I got promoted to GS-12, currently $97,079/year, in 1974. I completed 13 graduate evening business courses at Loyola. I went on vacations to the Bahamas, Hawaii, Mexico, and Jamaica.)

— Democrat leaders ever-increasingly promote more LGBTQ.
https://chicago.suntimes.com/lgbtq/2024/03/29/transgender-rights-summit-chicago-health-department-lgbtq-rights
— Immigration advocates use the bridge collapse to stress that immigrants take bad jobs, jobs that Americans fail/refuse to take. I took bad jobs. To have money to buy cars and to pay for college expenses, I a) did yard work 1962-1964, b) delivered newspapers 1962-1966, c) washed dishes 1964-1966, d) cleaned golf shoes, chipped slag, and pumped gasoline in 1966, e) delivered mail 1966-1969, and f) worked on an automobile assembly line in 1970. If there had been as many illegals back then as there are now, they would have gotten the jobs that I got. If I still would have gotten those jobs, my salaries would have been lower because illegals drive salaries down for bad jobs.)

WIREPOINTS
— ‘708’ mental health taxing boards: Are Illinois voters schizoid or just depressed? – Mark Glennon
https://wirepoints.org/708-mental-health-taxing-boards-are-illinois-voters-schizoid-or-just-depressed-wirepoints/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Why would anybody in Illinois vote to create a new taxing authority to add to property tax bills? With property taxes being the second highest among the states and with polls consistently saying they are a top voter concern, you wouldn’t think such a thing could pass in a referendum anywhere the state. But many Illinois townships and counties vote to do just that, creating what are called “708 boards.” The boards are specifically empaneled to address local mental health needs and can only be created by local voter referendums. Some 90 of them now exist, according to a group called Advocate for 708. Proponents say they help fill gaps in available mental health services. Panel members are appointed by township or county boards, which also approve grants. The 708 boards are taxing jurisdictions with their own power to levy a local property tax of up to 0.15% of assessed value. The cap is set by state law. That’s typically a small amount for an average homeowner, supporters say – “less than the price of a weekly cup of coffee ($1.85),” according to Advocate for 708. Illinois, however, is already notorious for the number of different units of government it has – 8,923 by one count – far more than any other state. A new 708 panel means another line item on property tax bills.)

Those adverse actions include a) forcing me to take their early retirement “offer” in 1997 when I was 49 years old, b) always ranking me in the bottom half of my coworkers for pay-for-performance purposes, c) not promoting me, d) delaying my promotions, e) forcing me to suffer a big pay cut to transfer, f) disallowing my education deductions, travel vouchers, and sick leave requests, g) firing me, and h) forcing me to resign. They would not have taken the aforesaid adverse actions against me if I had been a Democrat and especially if I had been a minority, female, younger, and/or veteran. And even more especially if a) I had not complained about political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, and age discrimination, and b) I had not become an active member in a class action lawsuit that charged them with reverse discrimination, age discrimination, and retaliation in 1988.)

They use that to hint/imply/argue/shout that I never earned more because I am a “bad person” if not a White supremacist, Nazi, KKK member, hater, racist, sexist, bigot, and/or even worse things. They stress that I am conservative, Republican, White, male, draft-avoider, Protestant, German American, and my ancestors have been in America since 1844.)

In my defense, I completed four graduate evening business courses at Loyola in 1972, four in 1973, and four in 1974. Further, I successfully completed a major developmental assignment during 1973 and 1974.)

— Democrats eager to jail Jan. 6 rioters once shielded left-wing radicals who bombed the U.S. Capitol. – Susan Ferrechio
https://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2024/mar/29/democrats-eager-to-jail-jan-6-rioters-once-shielde/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Attorney General Merrick Garland, who boasted of arresting and convicting hundreds of people who rioted in the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021, signed off on dismissing the charges and quashing the arrest warrant for a woman accused of blowing up a bomb near the Senate chamber. Elizabeth A. Duke jumped bail nearly four decades ago and has never been captured and prosecuted for the Capitol bombing, nor has she faced charges for her role in bombing the Navy Yard and Fort McNair, or plotting to bomb other federal buildings, among them the Old Executive Office Building next to the White House and the Naval Academy in Annapolis. Democrats quietly helped toss her case in 2009, a move that Mr. Garland later signed off on.)

They stress that I have lived in Wheaton only since 1978 (only 46 years), that I have never worked in Wheaton, that I have never raised children in Wheaton, and that I have never attended schools or churches in Wheaton. I should write a book about my critics/opponents in Wheaton. I would focus on those who have taken the most/biggest adverse actions against me.)

GOVERNMENT EXECUTIVE
— Applications for revenue-generating IRS jobs are ‘far below’ agency goals. The tax agency is facing major hurdles with its big ambitions for hiring to slash uncollected taxes. – ERIC KATZ (COMMENT: I worked for the Democrats who ran IRS 1971-1980. GAO audits IRS. I transferred from IRS to GAO in 1980. I should write a book about a) how my Democrat IRS superiors wasted my career and b) how my Democrat GAO superiors wasted my knowledge of IRS, wasted my career, and forced me to take their early retirement “offer” in 1997 when I was 49 years old. I earned an MBA from Loyola in 1976. I passed the CPA examination on my first attempt in 1979. I earned a master’s degree in accounting from DePaul in 1980. I passed the Certified Internal Auditor examination on my first attempt in 1981. I became a licensed CPA in 1981. I earned four more professional certifications in 1990, 1994, 1996, and 1997. I earned a master’s degree in finance from IIT in 1997.)
https://www.govexec.com/workforce/2024/03/applications-revenue-generating-irs-jobs-are-far-below-agency-goals/394987/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The agency has made some progress—it has eliminated barriers to posting job openings—but is still facing headwinds that are largely outside of its control. Revenue agents for those roles have “yet to be hired and onboarded,” the IG said. “External applications that have been received are far below the IRS targeted goal and there is an overall shortage of individuals with the desired background and experience,” TIGTA found. A previous IG report found that despite its new funding, revenue agent staffing had actually decreased by 8%, or more than 650 employees, between the end of fiscal 2019 and March 2023. IRS had planned to bring on 3,833 revenue agents in fiscal 2023, but in the first six months officials had recruited just 34. IRS officials are aware of the problem and are attempting to develop solutions. The agency has completed an enterprise-wide recruiting strategy for revenue agents and is “exploring options” to better promote related job announcements. “We are making remarkable progress in our efforts to transform the IRS and the pace of change is accelerating as we use the historic funding from the IRA,” said David Padrino, IRS’ chief transformation and strategy officer. He noted that overall, the agency has completed 45% of its fiscal 2023 milestones, while 55% were underway and just 2% had not yet been addressed. Still, some of IRS’ shortfalls may be systemic. Erin Collins, the National Taxpayer Advocate, warned in a recent report the IRS Human Capital Office “lacks the necessary resource investments,” including IT and staffing, to keep up with the agency’s new hiring demands. Citing the pay gap between federal and private sector employees, the taxpayer advocate said it would be “unreasonable to expect the IRS to consistently out-recruit the competition.” The agency has maintained expedited hiring authority, but even when using it in fiscal 2023 the average time between a job announcement and a start date was 110 days. Additionally, the Government Accountability Office found last month IRS is failing to detail its current and future needs, where skill gaps exist and its strategy for filling them. It has broad hiring plans and types of roles for which it will hire, but has not specified which workers would go toward high-income/high-wealth audits. IRS is also facing political headwinds. Congressional Republicans have decried the hiring as a “power grab,” and the agency itself has warned its workforce could be facing a “cliff” in several years when IRA funds are set to expire. Sen. Rick Scott, R-Fla., even wrote a letter to Americans imploring them not to apply for the forthcoming jobs. Collins suggested IRS invest more in using the Pathways and Presidential Management Fellows programs to recruit employees. She also said the agency should consider contracting with recruiting firms to help it bring in candidates for higher-grade positions. Collins noted IRS has made significant gains in hiring for customer service positions—the agency completed a total of 34% more hiring actions in fiscal 2023 than the previous year—but said the outstanding problems threaten what it is trying to accomplish. “If the IRS does not make significant changes, these staffing shortages will compound and pose significant threats to federal tax administration and taxpayer rights,” the taxpayer advocate said. The challenges do not come as a surprise: Collins and former officials—including Danny Werfel, who has since once again become IRS commissioner—warned when the IRA was passed that fulfilling the agency’s staffing goals would present significant difficulties. IRS is also looking to develop flexible work options, but TIGTA found in its new report that progress in that area has been delayed. The agency is still looking to onboard a project lead in that area and is determining what is feasible based on other agency practices. The Treasury Department last month mandated that employees work from their offices at least 50% of the time. The agency is also creating a pulse survey to establish a baseline on employee morale, while officials have presented to the Transformation and Strategy Office three options for improving employee recognition and educating managers about rewards for staff.)

— Retired grandmother still owes $108,000 in student debt 40 years after taking out loan. – Mike Lowe (COMMENT: Did you take out a student loan? I did not even try because I would not have gotten one. I only just barely made it into the upper 20% of my high school class and my ACT score was only 24. Further, I was not viewed as being college material. Neither of my parents had attended college. My father was only the first of my ancestors to earn a high school diploma. My mother never attended high school. I could not run because I had a bone disease. My eyesight could not be corrected to 20/20. I had partial red/green color blindness. I demonstrated no leadership potential because I was a part-time dishwasher during my junior and senior years in high school and a full-time dishwasher during the summer in between. So because of the aforesaid and because my parents lacked money, I worked my way through college. But because I worked too many hours, my GPA suffered. I would not have been able to graduate debt-free from NIU with a bachelor’s degree in management in 1970 if I had not worked all the part-time hours that I could for the Park Forest Post Office 1966-1969 and if my parents had not provided me with room and board while I completed courses at UIC 1966-1968, weekends during my first semester at NIU in 1969, and the summer of 1969. I acknowledge that I would not have had to work so many hours washing dishes and delivering mail if I had not used what I earned to buy a new cars in 1966, 1967, and 1968, but I used those cars to get to/from work and classes.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: In 1986, Nancy Peter took out a student loan to finish her psychology degree at Mundelein College in Chicago. Almost four decades later, she’s still paying it back. “The interest compounds and compounds, so every penny I don’t pay, it goes sky high,” she said. Peter took out another loan to go to graduate school at Loyola University and has worked as a therapist for nearly 40 years. But the now 71-year-old retired grandmother of two owes six-figures, more than triple the initial amount of money she borrowed. . .According to the U.S. Department of Education, 43 million Americans owe a collective $1.3 trillion in student loan debt. The average borrower owes $37,000. “This will sound terrible,” Peter said. “But I have a paper of different ways you can have your loan forgiven, and the only one I fit into was I would have to die.” Last year, the U.S. Supreme Court struck down the Biden administration’s plan to forgive hundreds of billions of dollars in student loan debt.)

https://nypost.com/2024/03/26/opinion/ev-pushing-joe-biden-knows-gas-powered-cars-are-still-tops/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: One of Joe Biden’s notable digressions when getting deposed by special counsel Robert Hur was about driving his beloved 1967 Corvette Stingray convertible. Which wasn’t surprising — the president genuinely loves his car. And why not? It’s a thing of beauty and, for its time, was a splendid feat of engineering. A paradox of the Biden administration is that the old-school car enthusiast is — in the name of the future and saving the planet — waging a war on the internal-combustion-engine cars that he so admires and that have helped define American life over the last 100 years. The internal-combustion-engine automobile ranks as one of the modern world’s most transformative innovations. Prior to the advent of trains, travel by land was an absolute misery, even for the wealthy and privileged. Then the car, in effect, took the train and put it in the hands of individuals. It was a revolutionary leap ahead for personal freedom and mobility. It changed where we live (catalyzing the growth of the suburbs) and how we work (making it easier to commute). It obviously made it possible to go more places and gave rise to new types of business catering to a newly footloose population, including motels and fast-food restaurants. It knit the country together via a road network that facilitated untold economic activity and created the auto-manufacturing industry, as well as industries providing parts and fuel for cars. To an unusual extent, people feel bonded to their cars. There are car enthusiasts but not enthusiasts for other 20th-century implements that changed our way of life. No one speaks wistfully of the refrigerator they owned 40 years ago or reads fan magazines devoted to plumbing. Even for consumers who aren’t car devotees, what to buy is an intensely personal decision; this is why there is a dizzying array of brands offering an immense range of choices. The Biden administration’s push to get people into electric vehicles is running directly into the chief advantage of internal-combustion-engine cars, which is the sheer convenience. People don’t really have “range anxiety,” the fear their electric vehicle will run out of its charge. Electric cars have acquired more range now, and most people aren’t driving 300 miles in a single trip, regardless. No, it’s the time it takes to charge an electric car compared with the ease of a trip to the gas station that is the issue. Gas stations already exist (about 145,000 of them with a million gas pumps), and no one had to subsidize their creation. They are convenient and cost-effective and make economic sense. Making charging stations available on a comparable scale will present formidable obstacles. As Mark Mills of the National Center for Energy Analytics points out in a paper on electric cars, transporting the large amounts of energy at the necessary scale using electric energy via wires and transformers is much more expensive than doing it with oil via pipelines and tanks. Installing the superchargers necessary to make charging somewhat rapid — but still slower than gassing up — will require “a grid power demand comparable to a small town or steel mill.” This isn’t to say electric cars aren’t attractive to some consumers, especially those with their own garages for overnight charging and the resources to spend on a fun, interesting second or third car. Tesla has made major inroads in the upscale category. Good for it. More choice is better. An all-electric-car future is very far off, though, and internal-combustion-engine automobiles aren’t embarrassing artifacts of the past. Their cost, convenience, reliability, and size — more than half of automobiles sold in America are SUVs — make them hugely appealing. They are also getting constant upgrades. According to Mills, since 1975, “the average automobile today has 100 more horsepower, weighs 1,000 pounds more, and has doubled in fuel efficiency.” Joe Biden’s Corvette is now an antique, but the basic technology is as important, and incredibly user-friendly, as ever.)

BLAZE
— ‘Ronna McDaniel will not be an NBC News contributor,’ NBCUniversal News Group chairman announces. – ALEX NITZBERG (COMMENT: What opposition have you had to face? I should write a book about the tremendous opposition that I faced from my Democrat GAO superiors, supervisors, coworkers, and subordinates when I transferred from IRS to GAO in 1980 when I was 31 years old. They forced me to suffer a $22,966/year (21%) pay cut in today’s dollars to transfer. I faced tremendous opposition mainly because I was a conservative Republican who opposed political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, and age discrimination, but also because I did not help GAO meet any of its Affirmative Action quotas and because I did not start my career with GAO like almost all of them did and because I transferred in with almost 12 years of federal seniority. They were furious when I completed the requirements for a master’s degree in accounting from DePaul in 1980, I passed the Certified Internal Auditor examination on my first attempt in 1981, and I became a licensed CPA in 1981. I had passed the CPA examination on my first attempt in 1979 and I had earned an MBA from Loyola in 1976. GAO audits IRS. 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 $97,079-$110,020/year. They wasted my knowledge of IRS. They did not assign me to audits of IRS for 6 years. But then, after just 3 years, they threw me off audits of IRS.)

https://www.dailyherald.com/20240322/news/why-illinois-voters-were-no-shows-at-the-polls-tuesday/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: “Most of the races were completely uncontested, with just one contested county board race on the Democratic side,” said Lake County Clerk Anthony Vega. “That lack of motivation could have resulted in voters not coming out.” With that lack of choice, combined with the fact that Democratic President Joe Biden and former Republican President Donald Trump had all but secured their nominations ahead of Tuesday’s vote, low turnout was inevitable, experts said. “But I was still shocked to see returns as low as they were,” said Ryan Tolley, executive director of Change Illinois, a nonpartisan, nonprofit group that advocates for ethical government and elections. “Typically voter turnout is higher in presidential elections and that doesn’t seem to be the case this year in Illinois, which that could be the divisiveness of politics or voters not having any faith in the process.” . . . Low turnout for a spring primary doesn’t necessarily translate to low turnout for the November election though. . . And when it comes to presidential election years, more than 70% of Illinois voters have cast ballots in each of the last five presidential votes, according to election records.)

ILLINOIS REVIEW
— IL GOP Abandons Grassroots, Pays Establishment Political Consulting Firms $954K During Embarrassing 2022 Election Cycle, Disclosures Reveal (COMMENT: I have been a member of the American Association of Political Consultants ( https://theaapc.org/ ) since 2001. My critics/opponents rudely ended my service as a member of the AAPC Midwest Chapter board of directors in 2004, a position that I had since 2001. I had worked for GAO for almost 18 years 1980-1997 as an Analyst, the last 11 years of which at the GS-13 Step 1-10 Levels, currently $115,439-$150,075/year. What GAO Analysts do is very similar to what consultants do.)
https://www.illinoisreview.com/illinoisreview/2024/03/il-gop-abandons-grassroots-pays-establishment-political-consulting-firms-954k-during-embarrassing-2022-election-cycle-disclosures-reveal.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The Illinois Republican Party routinely claims that they do not have enough money to support individual candidates – especially the conservative grassroots candidates, but disclosures reveal that during the 2022 election cycle, the state party spent over $954,000 on three political consulting firms as Democrats dominated the election and expanded their super majority control throughout the state. Disclosures also reveal that during that same period, the state party spent over $731,000 on salaries. Records show the IL GOP sent $437,500 to Axiom Strategies, $285,196 to COR Strategies and $231,347 to Validus. But the money spent did not advance Republican causes, but rather it advanced Republican losses – as the party spent nearly one million dollars to hire the state’s best and brightest political minds and consultants. And what was the result of their efforts? As the Chicago Tribune Editorial Board pointed out in a Nov. 11, 2022 editorial, “Republicans lost every state constitutional office – governor, attorney general, secretary of state, comptroller and treasurer – and 14 of 17 congressional seats. In the General Assembly, not only did the GOP fail to gain any ground on Democrats’ supermajority, Democrats notched a record number of seats in the Illinois House. And in the Illinois Supreme Court, where Republicans had an opportunity to gain two seats…they came up short. Democrats now have a comfortable 5-2 edge in the state’s high court.” Validus partner and co-founder Nick Klitzing is the former Executive Director of the IL GOP and he served as the Deputy Campaign Manager and Special Counsel for the Bruce Rauner re-election campaign in 2017. A review of Klitzing’s personal X account reveals anti-Trump posts. The Republican political consultant also bashes former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani, writing in 2020 that the mayor caused “extraordinary damage to our democracy by lying and pushing wild conspiracies on conservative media.” In other posts, Klitzing praises Never Trumper former U.S. Rep. Adam Kinzinger, writing, “So proud that @RepKinzinger represents Illinois!” Klitzing even endorses an anti-Trump, pro-choice Chicago Democrat in 2019, writing, “As a Republican in Chicago, I don’t always love my choices in city elections. But I enthusiastically voted for @AnnaValenciaIL for City Clerk. I’ve known Anna for 15+ years. She is a great leader and true public servant. She deserves your support. #VoteValencia #TeamValencia” In 2018, Valencia endorsed Democrat JB Pritzker for governor, writing, “I am proud to support JB for governor and to fight alongside him for the future of Illinois.” And in response, Pritzker noted, “I’m honored to receive the endorsement of Clerk Valencia. Anna is a strong voice for women’s rights and economic opportunity here in Chicago and across the state. As governor, I will work with leaders like Anna to protect a woman’s right to choose, support women and minority-owned small businesses, and work to close the gender pay gap. We will also fight the hateful attacks we’re seeing from the Trump and Rauner administrations.” And in 2022, Gov. JB Pritzker endorsed Valencia in her bid to become Illinois’ Secretary of State, stating that she “represents the bright future of the Democratic Party.” But Republican political consulting is a lucrative business in Illinois, regardless of one’s winning record. Last April, this publication revealed that the Richard Uihlein-funded People Who Play By The Rules PAC, in quarterly disclosures, paid three political consultants $142,000 while spending just $3,700 to support conservative school board candidates during the April elections. Sadly, the candidates lost, but the real winners were the consultants who paid themselves generously. The founder, president and treasurer of the PAC Dan Proft, a Florida resident and host of the Naples-based radio show Chicago’s Morning Answer, received the majority of the consulting fees, totaling $75,000 to Starfish Consulting LLC, while the rest went to a consulting firm owned by Orland Park Mayor Keith Pekau, who was paid $26,000 through Fahrenheit Consulting Group, while $41,000 went to a consulting firm owned by Michael Koolidge (TMKS, LLC), who also serves as the PAC’s communications director and chief spokesperson. During the 2022 Illinois gubernatorial campaign, Uihlein donated $42 million to Proft’s PAC. And just weeks before the election, the Illinois political consulting class, including the PAC, were out promoting a single poll that showed Republican nominee Darren Bailey within “striking” distance and only two points behind Pritzker during the final stretch of the campaign. But on election night, the governor’s race was called at the exact moment the polls closed, with the Associated Press declaring Gov. Pritzker the winner at 7:00 pm CDT. Pritzker would defeat Bailey by 12 points – a far cry from the 2-point margin that the Republican consultants were out promoting just days before. The Illinois Republican political consulting class is busy getting ready for the 2024 election, and promising major Republican victories in a state dominated by the Democrats. But if history is any indication, the real winners will not be the local candidates – but rather, the well-paid political consultants. The next election is November 5, 2024.)

— How migration to Chicago today compares with earlier inflows from Europe, the South and Mexico. As the city begins evicting migrants from shelters, Reset digs into the history of migration in Chicago. – Max Lubbers (COMMENT: What is your national origin? When did your ancestors immigrate? All my ancestors immigrated from what is now Germany during the 1840s and 1850s. On my father’s side, they immigrated to Chicago in 1844, they worked in a brick factory for 10 years, and then they homesteaded a farm in southeast Crete Township. My critics/opponents have always used that against me. They have always hinted/implied/argued/shout that the aforesaid gave me tremendous unfair advantages in life.)

— Professor argues marriage ‘fundamentalism’ helps bolster White supremacy – JACKSON WALKER (COMMENT: My critics/opponents have always hinted/implied/argued/shouted that I unfairly benefitted from traditional marriage and family. My parents got married in 1945. They had me in 1948. My mother stayed home and raised me. They sent 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 and then to Crete-Monee High School 1962-1966. They provided me with room and board while I a) did yard work 1962-1964, b) delivered newspapers 1962-1966, c) washed dishes 1964-1966, d) cleaned golf shoes, chipped slag, and pumped gasoline in 1966, and e) delivered mail 1966-1969. That enabled me to a) buy 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. That enabled me to pay for my college expenses at UIC 1966-1968 and at NIU 1969-1970. That enabled me to graduate debt-free from NIU with a bachelor’s degree in management and owning that Charger in 1970. Neither of my parents attended college. My father was only the first of my ancestors to earn a high school diploma. He fought brittle type 1 diabetes from childhood. He worked in the office of a nasty chemical plant on the east side of Chicago Heights and almost always worked second jobs to pay the family’s bills. My mother never attended high school. Further, ever since I got married in 1978, my critics/opponents have hinted/implied/argued/shouted that I have unfairly benefitted from that marriage. They hint/imply/argue/shout that if I had not gotten married, I would never had been able to pass the CPA examination on my first attempt in 1979, earn a master’s degree in accounting in 1980, pass the Certified Internal Auditor examination on my first attempt in 1981, become a licensed COPA in 1981, etc. In my defense, I had earned an MBA in 1976 and I had almost completed the requirements for a master’s degree in accounting in 1978.)

— Privilege, affinity and equity: How DEI is playing out in Illinois schools – Ted Dabrowski (COMMENT: My grade school teachers and my high school teachers promoted personal responsibility. Thanks to them, I took college preparatory classes in high school, my ACT score was 24, I graduated in the upper 20% of my class, and I got accepted by UIC.)
https://wirepoints.org/privilege-affinity-and-equity-how-dei-is-playing-out-in-illinois-schools-wirepoints/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: But scratch beneath the surface and you see exactly what Kirsanow warned of: students being taught to see others as members of a racial or social group, not as individuals. Take the “affinity” groups that New Trier High School, just five miles from Evanston High School, created a couple of years ago. It’s one thing for students to come together under shared interests and backgrounds. But it’s another thing for a school district to sanction and promote numerous affiliate groups under the DEI umbrella. “Black and Brown Club.” “Young Asians with Power.” “White Anti-racist.” “Black Student Alliance.” All were listed during a presentation on the district’s DEI efforts. These aren’t groups based on common interests, but rather on racialized and politicized “shared identities.” . . . Despite the national move against equity as reported by the WSJ and most recently in Crains, New Trier shows no sign of slowing down its affinity group efforts – the school district has a new LinkedIn job posting for a Black and Brown Club Affinity Group Sponsor. And note the language listed under Qualifications: “Preference will be given to applicants who identify as Black, African-American, Hispanic and/or Latinx and/or have personal experience with or knowledge of the needs of this population.” Interesting, considering the recent ruling against affirmative action. . .A recent New Trier 9th-grade assignment shows how DEI can negatively impact students. A student I know was asked to measure his level of “privilege” through a series of questions in his freshman English class. The activity is not a problem in and of itself, but look at how “privilege” is framed by the material below and you can understand the student’s concern. “Privilege operates on personal, intrapersonal, cultural and institutional levels and gives advantages…to members of dominant groups to the expense of members of target groups…invisible to people who have it…privileges are unearned and they are granted to people whether they want those privileges or not.” In sum: If you are part of a dominant group you are privileged, you don’t need to work hard for success… things are handed to you. Whereas, if you aren’t privileged in these ways, even hard work won’t get you there. Examples of automatic privilege, as listed below, include “white” “male” “heterosexual” “middle class” “English-speaking” and more. It’s no wonder such language made a 9th-grader who can circle most of those areas “feel bad about himself.” I was told: “He was totally caught in the middle – very uncomfortable answering the questions and thinking the goal was to make him feel guilty, but at the same time he didn’t want to rock the boat and anger the teacher.” That doesn’t sound like a classroom that’s conducive to open discussions. DEI becomes particularly divisive when privilege is equated with oppression or racism, as is often done, and as you can see in some of the examples above. You’re either the oppressor or the oppressed, a bigot or a victim. Few claims could be more divisive or untrue. It should be obvious that many who might be called privileged are not racists or oppressors, and declaring them as such invites disharmony if not outright hatred between groups.)

NORTH COOK NEWS
— Proft criticizes Loyola Academy’s choice of instructional tool: ‘Spin the wheel and select a victim status’ (COMMENT: Democrat and RINO leaders ever-increasingly shout that the more of the following that you are, the more of a victim that you are: minority, female, younger, LGBTQ, non-Protestant, non-German American, and/or if your ancestors have not been in America for a long time. That is, Democrat and RINO leaders ever-increasingly shout that the more of the following that you are, the more of a victimizer that you are: White, male, older, heterosexual, Protestant, German American, and/or if your ancestors have been in America for a long time.)
https://northcooknews.com/stories/656729403-proft-criticizes-loyola-academy-s-choice-of-instructional-tool-spin-the-wheel-and-select-a-victim-status
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Chicago’s Morning Answer radio host Dan Proft stirred controversy by condemning Loyola Academy’s adoption of the “Wheel of Power/Privilege” instructional tool. He suggests that the activity entails assigning or identifying individuals with varying levels of privilege or victimhood based on chance. “Spin the wheel and select a victim status,” Proft posted on X. “The Wheel of Power/Privilege instructional featured at Loyola Academy HS in Wilmette, IL, a wealthy, honky enclave where the schools, even the ostensibly Catholic ones, are self-flagellation spas to release guilt toxins.” Profit’s critique underscores what he deems to be an excessive focus on guilt and victimhood within wealthy and predominantly white communities, particularly in educational institutions. Loyola Academy is comprised of over 2,000 students. The school has been in operation since its founding by the Jesuits in 1909. The school costs $19,950 per year to attend. The wheel is an example of intersectionality, a phrase coined by academics seeking to bundle together disparate elements of society. According to the National Review, the term comes from academic Kimberlé Crenshaw’s exploration of how various identity markers intersect to shape individual experiences. Critics note that the tendency in intersectionality advocates to monopolize the experiences of marginalized groups and highlights the danger of codifying identity hierarchies. Ultimately, critics argue for a nuanced understanding of social dynamics beyond rigid theoretical frameworks, emphasizing the importance of individual perception and critical engagement with reality. In her TED Talk, Crenshaw emphasized that if someone stands at the intersection of multiple forms of exclusion, they are likely to face the impact of both. Crenshaw calls for acknowledging this reality and advocating for victims of prejudice. “Many years ago, I began to use the term “intersectionality” to deal with the fact that many of our social justice problems like racism and sexism are often overlapping, creating multiple levels of social injustice,” Crenshaw said.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: New York Mayor Ed Koch had a commonsense approach to hiring first responders, and it made a lifelong impression on me when I first heard it maybe 40 years ago. “I don’t care what sex a firefighter is,” Mayor Koch said all those years ago, “as long as they can carry a 200 pound Mayor out of a burning building.” When it comes to dangerous jobs — first responders, soldiers, sailors, pilots, industrial workers, etc. — every other consideration must come in second to the question of whether or not this particular applicant has the physical and mental stamina to do the job. Tell that to the folks in the Nashville Police Department where they just dropped an ability test requirement in order to increase its female force from 13% to 30%.)

— What It Takes to Land a Job Before College Graduation This Year. The first job after college is critical. – Lindsay Ellis (COMMENT: What harmed your job search when you graduated from college? For me, it was potential employers viewing me as being draft bait. My father had recently died and they did not believe that my application for a financial hardship draft deferment to help support my mother and brother would be approved. Further, potential employers were under tremendous pressure to hire minorities, females, and veterans. Further, my GPA was not that great because I had spent far too many hours working for the Park Forest Post Office instead of studying. Consequently, I accepted the only job offer that I got. It was Retail Sales Manager for the Firestone Store in Chicago Heights. It was a job that did not really require the bachelor’s degree in management that I had earned from NIU in 1970.)

https://townhall.com/columnists/print/2636473
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Republicans’ embrace of “diversity” has been an unmitigated disaster, as illustrated most recently by Sen. Katie Britt, whose response to President Biden’s State of the Union address came with a double dose of diversity. Why was this first-term senator chosen? To boost her reelection chances? She’s from the reddest state in the Union, won her last election by 30 points, and her term doesn’t end until 2026. Because she’s an amazing public speaker? Quite obviously, it wasn’t that. She gave the response because she’s not a white male. The last time Republicans picked a white man to give the GOP response was in 2012, when Gov. Mitch Daniels gave a great speech, despite the glaring absence of any blubbering over the unique suffering of women and minorities. Which brings us to Katie. Asked to give the GOP response, she delivered it from her kitchen table because she’s a mom just like you, suburban woman who will never vote Republican. She not only was “diverse” herself, but she made sure to drag a minority into her argument against Biden’s border policy, which is to have no border. An open border, Britt told us, is bad for the illegals. This was in accordance with the modern rule of etiquette requiring that no policy be criticized unless it can be shown that it harms someone other than whites, men or Americans. Thus, for example, affirmative action has been actively screwing white people out of college admissions, jobs and promotions since at least 1970. (Allan Bakke found this out in 1973, when he was rejected from the University of California, Davis, medical school in order to make way for hilariously less-qualified minorities.) Even after decades of this open, egregious race discrimination, Republicans are terrified of stating the obvious: Discriminating against white people is unfair to white people. Instead, the preferred argument is: “It’s not good for black people, either!” Perhaps, but they’re not complaining. And we’re still stuck with the unfairness to whites. It is a remarkable fact that, after more than half a century of rank race discrimination against whites, the Supreme Court finally decided affirmative action was unconstitutional only after it was shown that racial preferences harm Asians. Similarly, Britt’s argument against the Biden policy of dragging millions of illegal aliens into our country was not that it’s unfair to Americans, although it’s their home that’s being wrecked. No, it was that our nonexistent border is bad for Mexicans. Thus, Britt said: “I spoke to a woman who shared her story with me. She had been sex-trafficked by the cartels starting at age 12. She told me not just that she was raped every day, but how many times a day she was raped. “The cartels put her on a mattress in a shoebox of a room, and they sent men through that door, over and over again, for hours and hours on end. “We wouldn’t be OK with this happening in a third world country. This is the United States of America, and it’s past time we start acting like it.” Democrats are permanently destroying the greatest country on Earth — which happens to be where we live — but Rosalita’s life has gone from a negative 9, living in Mexico, to a negative 10 being human-trafficked. As with affirmative action, the GOP can only attack illegal immigration by saying it’s bad for the illegal immigrants, who apparently are driven by some invisible force to stream into our country. Their illegal behavior is something we’re doing to them. Help! Someone keeps burning down my house! GOP: Oh my gosh — was the arsonist hurt? In producing a diverse person to make her case, Britt botched the story six ways from Sunday. As we now know, the serial rapes didn’t happen in this country, but in Mexico. Even if they had occurred here, who did Britt imagine was doing the raping? As described in my book “Adios, America!”, child rape is rife in Latin America. It’s their culture, having nothing to do with our enticing open border. My idea: Let’s not let that rape culture come here. The rapes also didn’t happen under Biden, but under President George W. Bush. So that was great. Britt’s bleating for a diverse person gave Democrats something to talk about other than the thousands of American lives snuffed out by illegals at a rate of about 40 a week. Britt could have talked about 27-year-old Washington State Trooper Christopher Gadd, killed days before the SOTU by an illegal in a “sanctuary state”; 10-year-old A.J. Wise, killed while walking home from school last month by an illegal alien hit-and-run driver in Midland, Texas; Travis Wolf, killed in Missouri by a boozed-up illegal in December — the night before Travis’ 12th birthday; Diane Hill Luckett, mother of three, who died in March of last year after being smashed into by a drunk illegal alien with a string of criminal convictions to his name (and zero deportations); or David Breaux and Karim Abou Najm, stabbed to death by an illegal alien on a killing spree in Davis, California, last April. Half of the murdered Americans I just listed were black. But when it comes to immigration, black Americans might as well be white men. “Illegal immigrant” trumps “American” because diversity is our greatest strength.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: All are longtime Republicans who backed Nikki Haley in her presidential bid. All held leadership positions in her campaign. And all three are deeply skeptical of Donald Trump, or outright opposed to him. MacGovern won’t vote for Trump. Giles doesn’t see herself supporting Trump this time after casting ballots for him twice. While Moore – also a two-time Trump voter – said she is leaning against backing him again, calling him a “self-serving narcissistic and a bully and he is not the role model I want for my children and grandchildren.” Now that Haley has exited the GOP presidential primary on the heels of big losses on Super Tuesday, attention is turning to Trump’s general election campaign and whether he can unite the GOP behind him to take on President Joe Biden. Haley demonstrated in state after state that a significant minority of primary voters wanted a candidate other than Trump, and the question is whether they will accept the polarizing former president as their nominee. The answer for some is an emphatic no. “I could never vote for Donald Trump,” MacGovern said.)

— I should write a book about the success that my Democrat superiors in the federal government had encouraging/forcing my many Jewish superiors and supervisors to take big adverse actions against me. In 1997, when I was 49 years old, all three of my GAO superiors were Jewish and two of them were women. They succeeded in forcing me to take their early retirement “offer” and they gave my job and my preferred corner office to my Democrat Black subordinate.

LOCAL 3 NEWS
— A judge issued a new order that has allowed four candidates in Catoosa County to re-qualify for the May 21 ballot through the election commission. This is in response to the Catoosa County GOP continuing to deny those candidates a spot on the republican primary ballot. “If you want people to continue believing in the ability of the Republican party, then you have to make sure that they are voting in a way that’s consistent with our platform,” said Georgia Republican Assembly President Nathaniel Darnell. (COMMENT: Political parties exist to help elect candidates who can and will defend and advance their platform. The Republican Party platform is conservative. The RNC and Republican state, county, township, and ward party organizations should stop candidates from running as Republicans if they reject planks in the Republican Party platform. Far too many candidates who have run as Republicans on ballots in my precinct reject far too many planks in the Republican Party platform. Most commonly, they reject the personal responsibility, traditional marriage and family, right to life, immigration, illegal drugs, Second Amendment, and/or equal opportunity (no race or gender based preference giving) planks.)

To give preference to those who are liberal/moderate, minority, female, younger, LGBTQ, veteran, non-Protestant, non-German American, and/or have ancestors who have not been in America for a long time is to discriminate against those who are conservative, White, male, older, heterosexual, non-veteran, Protestant, German American, and/or have ancestors who have been in America for a long time.)

Further, they strongly hinted/implied/argued/shouted that if we had married earlier and had children like they did, I would not have been able to earn a) three job related master’s degrees, b) six job-related professional certifications, or c) a job-related professional license. Further, they strongly hinted/implied/argued/shouted that I lied about our efforts to have children. In retrospect, with benefit of hindsight, I should have sued them.)

— All during the almost 30 years that I worked for the Democrats who ran the federal government (GAO 1980-1997, IRS 1971-1980, and Post Office 1966-1969), they gave preference big time to their employees who were Democrat, and especially to those who were minority, female, younger, veteran, non-Protestant, non-German American, and/or had ancestors who had not been in America for a long time. It is called political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, and age discrimination.)

PEW RESEARCH
— Who Are You? The Art and Science of Measuring Identity – SCOTT KEETER, ANNA BROWN AND DANA POPKY (COMMEMT: I should write a book about my critics/opponents who use their targets’ demographics against their targets the most. I would focus on those who target those who are conservative, Republican, White, male, older, non-veteran, Protestant, German American, and/or have ancestors who have been in America for a long time. I would focus on those who target those who share their own demographics to curry favor with those who do not share their demographics.)
https://www.pewresearch.org/methods/2024/02/12/who-are-you-the-art-and-science-of-measuring-identity/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Our main religion question asks respondents to choose from 11 groups that encompass 97% of the U.S. public: eight religious groups and three categories of people who don’t affiliate with a religion. Other, less common faiths are measured by respondents writing in their answer. Our questions have evolved in response to a rise in the share of Americans who do not identify with any religion and to the growing diversity in the country’s population. (Chapter 1) Measuring income is challenging because it is both sensitive and sometimes difficult for respondents to estimate. We ask for a person’s “total family income” the previous calendar year from all sources before taxes, in part because that may correspond roughly to what a family computed for filing income taxes. To reduce the burden, we present ranges (e.g., “$30,000 to less than $40,000”) rather than asking for a specific number. (Chapter 2) We ask about political party affiliation using a two-part question. People who initially identify as an independent or “something else” (instead of as a Republican or Democrat) and those who refuse to answer receive a follow-up question asking whether they lean more to the Republican Party or the Democratic Party. In many of their attitudes and behaviors, those who only lean to a party greatly resemble those who identify with it. (Chapter 3) Our gender question tries to use terminology that is easily understood. It asks, “Do you describe yourself as a man, a woman or in some other way?” Amid national conversation on the subjects, gender and sexual orientation are topics on the cutting edge of survey measurement. (Chapter 4) In part because we use U.S. Census Bureau estimates to statistically adjust our data, we ask about race and Hispanic ethnicity separately, just as the census does. People can select all races that apply to them. In the future, the census may combine race and ethnicity into one question. (Chapter 5) A person’s age tells us both where they fall in the life span, indicating what social roles and responsibilities they may have, and what era or generation they belong to, which may tell us what events in history had an effect on their political or social thinking. We typically ask people to report just the year of their birth, which is less intrusive than their exact date of birth. (Chapter 6)

— Apple defeats lawsuit claiming it overpaid CEO Tim Cook, others – Jonathan Stempel (COMMENT: According to my Democrat IRS superiors, supervisors, coworkers, and subordinates, I was promoted much too fast. They were furious when I got promoted to GS-9 (currently $66,942/year) in 1972 when I was 24, to GS-11 (currently $80,994/year) in 1973, and to GS-12 (currently $97,079/year) in 1974. I had completed only 3 graduate evening business courses at Loyola when I was promoted in 1972, 7 in 1973, and 11 in 1974. I did not earn an MBA from Loyola until 1976. I did not take and pass the CPA examination on my first attempt until 1979.)
