WGN RADIO
— Can you be fired for not wearing a mask at work? (COMMENT: Because Zooming allows members of organizations to participate in meetings maskless, expect that Democrat and RINO organizations will stop Zooming to get rid of their members who do not promote masking. From what I see, the more of the following that you are, the less likely that you promote masking: Trump supporter, conservative, patriotic, Republican, American, White, male, older, heterosexual, married, non-poor, gun owner, Christian, Protestant, Italian American, German American, and/or those whose ancestors have been in America for a long time.)

DAILY HERALD
— What is the first word you use to describe yourself? – Editorial (COMMENT: For me, between 1980 and 1997, it was GAO employee. In 1980, when I was 31 years old, I took a $20,361/year (21%) pay cut in today’s dollars to transfer from IRS to GAO. In 1980, I completed the requirements for a master’s degree in accounting from DePaul. I had earned an MBA from Loyola in 1976 and I had passed the CPA examination on my first attempt in 1979. In 1981, I passed the Certified Internal Auditor Examination on my first attempt and became a licensed CPA. Between 1983, and 1996, I served on the Executive Committee of the Association of Government Accountants Chicago Chapter. In 1986, GAO promoted me to GS-13, currently $102,188/year. In 1990, I became a Certified Fraud Examiner, in 1994, a Certified Government Financial Manager, in 1996, a Certified Financial Services Auditor, and in early 1997, a Forensic Accountant. In early 1997, I completed the requirements for a master’s degree in financial markets and trading from IIT. But in September of 1997, my Democrat GAO superiors made all of the aforesaid worthless by forcing me to take their early retirement “offer.” GAO did not unionize until 2007. If GAO had been unionized in 1997, I might still be a GAO employee.)

HERALD & REVIEW
— Labor Day to showcase working families – LAMARCUS WILLIAMS (COMMENT: My critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes look down on wage earners, and they especially look down on wage earners who are union members. They stress that I was a union member while I worked for the Post Office 1966-1969 and for IRS 1971-1980. I transferred to GAO in 1980. GAO did not unionize until 2007. If GAO had been unionized in 1997, I might still be a GAO employee.)

The more that you call for equal opportunity, that is, the more that you oppose race, gender, and age based preference giving, the more that you are canceled by those who promote race, gender, and age based preference giving. I should write a book about those who promote race, gender, and age based preference giving the most in the following, that is, those who cancel me the most in the following: Illinois Republican Party, DuPage County Republican Central Committee, Milton Township Republican Organization, Illinois, DuPage County, Milton Township, Wheaton, Wheaton Chamber of Commerce, Wheaton Park District, etc. I would focus on those who also promote giving preference to those who share their religion and/or their national origin. I would focus on those who have taken the strongest adverse actions against me.)

DAILY LOCAL NEWS
— Find out where school board candidates stand on CRT – Gordon Eck (COMMENT: Political parties exist to help elect candidates who can and will defend and advance their platform.)
https://www.dailylocal.com/2021/09/04/eck-find-out-where-school-board-candidates-stand-on-crt/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: As the head of a political party in Chester County, one of my duties is to help candidates get elected. But as a Republican, the responsibilities go much further. Our stated mission is to “serve the community of Chester County by promoting and growing the Republican Party and the values upon which it was founded.” These values are crystalized in our vision statement, derived from the Declaration of Independence, “to make the rights of life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness a reality for all.” It is rare that my responsibility to one of our candidates conflicts with our mission and vision. But when it does, principle takes priority over politics.)

WATERTOWN DAILY TIMES

I would focus on past and present leaders of the Illinois Republican Party, DuPage County Republican Central Committee, and Milton Township Republican Organization.

— Unfair retirement cuts – James Glover, President, Chapter 1309 (COMMENT: I am one of those 99,640. My Social Security is $365 less each month because I get a Civil Service Retirement System pension. I paid Social Security taxes while I washed dishes, cleaned golf shoes, chipped slag, pumped gasoline, delivered mail, worked on an automobile assembly line and as a security guard, sold tires, automotive services, and major appliances, etc. 1964-1974.)
https://www.dailyherald.com/discuss/20210902/unfair-retirement-cuts
(FROM THE LETTER: I am a retired federal employee who loses $500 per month from my earned Social Security benefit. In 1984, Congress unfairly reduced public employee SSA pensions by two-thirds of the benefit earned and promised for no reason other than to save SSA money. No other category of pensions was reduced. We urge Congress to pass HR 82 and S1302 to remedy this unjust treatment. This unfair law adversely affects 99,640 citizens in Illinois and needs to be repealed so we can get the same benefits earned like everyone else.)

I did not earn an MBA until I was 27. I did not pass the CPA examination until I was 30. I did not pass the Certified Internal Auditor examination until I was 32. I did not become a Democrat. I did not help my Democrat supervisors and superiors get rid of their employees who were Republican, White, male, and/or non-veteran and who had not made GS-13 (currently $102,188) by age 25, GS-14 (currently $120,755) by age 30, GS-15 (currently $142,041) by age 35, and Senior Executive Service (currently $172,500) by age 40. I complained about political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, age discrimination, and retaliation. I became an active member of a class action lawsuit that charged my Democrat superiors with reverse discrimination, age discrimination, and retaliation. What did you do that limited your political career? I did not become a RINO. I promote planks in the Republican Party platform that my RINO political superiors want to dump including the traditional marriage/family, right to life, immigration, illegal drugs, Second Amendment, and equal opportunity (no race or gender based preference giving) planks. I did not let my RINO political superiors manipulate me or dominate me. I did not glorify and praise them. I did not pander to them. I did not serve as one of their operatives or dupes. I did not cover up their wrongdoing. I did not give them money.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: Ask your close colleagues whether they have heard anything bad about you recently. Be street-smart. You might not hear anything bad about yourself directly, but always keep open communication between yourself and your close colleagues and stakeholders. That way you’ll know whether they have heard any bad word about you and if you should be concerned. When you come across such a situation, have a plan to not let the situation spiral out of repair. Negative PR that is left unchallenged can be career limiting.)

https://www.dailywire.com/news/only-22-of-cable-news-is-news-study
(FROM THE ARTICLE: A new study has found that the vast majority of cable news broadcasts feature opinion, analysis, and spin instead of hard news. Hard news — defined as a statement of facts, or on-the-spot reporting — amounts to just 22.3% of all footage aired on cable news networks. That amounts to nine minutes, 15 seconds of hard news for every hour of broadcasting. Each hour of broadcasting on cable news networks contains nearly twice as much commercial time than hard news. Interviews with newsmakers account for another 16% of broadcast news time.)

PARADE
— Lights, Camera, Crime and Comedy! The 8 Most Memorable TV Shows From 1971 – Mara Reinstein (COMMENT: What did you do in 1971? I lived with my mother and brother in Crete. My father had died suddenly in October of 1969. I started the year working as the Retail Sales Manager for the Firestone Store in Chicago Heights, taking a graduate business management course at UIC, and awaiting a decision on my application for a financial hardship draft deferment. That application was approved, and because of my draft lottery number, I was no longer subject to the draft. I believe that prompted Oldsmobile to offer me a job which I accepted. But when I told my Firestone boss, he immediately and rudely fired me. But then, Oldsmobile withdrew its job offer saying that it had just agreed to stop hiring Whites to settle an EEOC complaint. That directly resulted in my accepting a job offer from IRS to be a GS-7 (currently $48,445/year) Revenue Officer in Chicago. But then, my Firestone boss offered me a part-time job pumping gasoline which I accepted. Before I started working for IRS and working part-time for Firestone, I went on a spring break vacation in the Bahamas. My 1969 Dodge Charger SE was stolen in Chicago in August. That directly resulted in my buying a new 1972 Corvette and a 1962 Chevy Bel Air for everyday use. At the end of the year, IRS granted my request to be assigned to its Harvey office.)

Adam Kinzinger’s seat could be erased, according to a few Republicans and some Democrats who are in Springfield for this week’s political rallies at the fair. . . .Today, 8 a.m.: GOP State Central Committee and Republican County Chairs Association meeting at the Wyndham Hotel in Springfield. Today, 11:30 a.m. to 2 p.m.: Illinois GOP Chairman Don Tracy, Reps. Darin LaHood, Rodney Davis, and Mary Miller; RNC Co-Chair Tommy Hicks; RNC Committeeman Richard Porter; and GOP leaders Jim Durkin and Dan McConchie headline Republican Day at the Illinois State Fair on the Director’s Lawn.

STAR TRIBUNE
— Former staff for Minnesota Republican Party allege Jennifer Carnahan created ‘toxic’ workplace. Former executive directors of state party speak out on Carnahan; NDAs voided. – Briana Bierschbach (COMMENT: I should write a book about how extremely toxic GAO’s Chicago office was during the 1980s and 1990s. The more of the following that its employees were, the more toxic that it was for them: Republican, conservative, White, male, older, non-veteran, Protestant, German American, if your ancestors had been in America for a long time, if you did not have a degree from an Ivy League university, if you had an accounting degree, if you were a CPA, and/or if you did not start you career with GAO. Further, I should write a book about the most toxic people in the following: a) Milton Township Republican Organization, DuPage County Republican Central Committee, and Illinois Republican Party since 1999; b) TAPROOT Republicans of Illinois 2005-2012; c) Wheaton Chamber of Commerce Government Affairs Committee 2003-2011; d) Illinois Center Right Coalition 2003-2007; e) American Association of Political Consultants Midwest Chapter, 2001-2004; and f) Wheaton, Wheaton Park District, Milton Township, DuPage County, and Illinois since 1978.)
https://www.startribune.com/former-staff-for-minnesota-republican-party-allege-jennifer-carnahan-created-toxic-workplace/600088972/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Minnesota Republican Party Chairwoman Jennifer Carnahan has presided over a toxic workplace culture and unchecked sexual harassment in the state party, according to a growing number of former staffers and activists who have leveled allegations against her. Four former executive directors of the party released a lengthy statement on Wednesday saying Carnahan “ruled by grudges, retaliation, and intimidation” in the party, often withholding prized party data to help candidates she preferred to get a “leg up.” The statement said she retaliated against those who spoke out against her, often trying to prevent former staff from getting other jobs. “Carnahan created an extremely toxic work environment, often yelling, demeaning and questioning loyalty,” the former staffers said in a joint statement. “We would be reprimanded if we did not glowingly ‘pump up’ and stroke the ego of Carnahan in our rare public appearances.” The four former executive directors — Becky Alery, Andy Aplikowski, Christine Snell and Kevin Poindexter — said they were able to speak out after the party’s Executive Board voted Sunday to void nondisclosure agreements that they said Carnahan used to silence staff. They added their voices to a widening chorus of people calling for Carnahan to resign from party leadership, including well over a dozen state legislators, three Republican governor candidates and five members of the party’s own executive board. Carnahan has said the allegations are part of an effort by her detractors to “relitigate” the 2021 race for party chair, when she won a third term. The 15-member executive board is meeting Thursday night and will take a vote of confidence in Carnahan’s leadership. Ten votes are required to remove her as chair. Many have cited Carnahan’s close relationship with Anton “Tony” Lazzaro, a prolific GOP donor and activist who was arrested last week on federal charges of sex trafficking. Lazzaro became deeply involved in state politics through his friendship with Carnahan. Since his arrest, other allegations have flooded social media about Carnahan’s leadership of the party. Multiple women detailed in social media posts their experiences being harassed or spoken to inappropriately by staff in the party, a culture they said went unchecked. “I don’t think young women are safe in politics,” said Kayla Khang, who interned for the party when she was 17 and said male party staffers had inappropriate conversations with her and frequently made comments that made her uncomfortable. She said she was warned specifically about being alone with one former party staffer.)
