But Johnson could also stress that in 1971 when I was 22, Oldsmobile withdrew a job offer that I had accepted saying that it had just agreed to stop hiring Whites to settle an EEOC complaint.)

https://www.newsweek.com/trumps-powerful-pitch-teamster-leaders-listen-your-members-ditch-democrats-opinion-1878581
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Union bosses are not unaware of the sea change in American politics that has been taking place in the last several years. The Democrats, once the party of the working class and zealous in defense of its interests, have long since abandoned them. Today, they represent the interests of the credentialed elites and the poor and are more interested in heeding Wall Street hedge fund managers’ pleas for trade deals that send manufacturing jobs abroad while importing more cheap labor from immigrants—whether legal or illegal—to keep the cost of doing business low. Their adherence to the woke playbook about prioritizing race over everything else has led them to think that it is fair that working class people should pay off the student loans of those with college degrees and making more money than they ever will, something that amounts to a massive regressive transfer of income from blue collar Americans to the professional laptop class.)

— Democrats and Republicans think differently about retirement. – Steve Vernon (COMMENT: My Democrat superiors, supervisors, coworkers, and subordinates saved far less of their income for retirement than my wife and I did. They spent much more of their income on immediate pleasures.

I should write a book about that.)

— Evangelical Christians are fierce Israel supporters. Now they are visiting as war-time volunteers – MELANIE LIDMAN (COMMENT: My many Jewish Democrat superiors and supervisors in the federal government were liberal, that is, they were anti-conservative, that is, they were anti-Republican. If I was working for them today, they would side with Humas. My having been baptized, raised, and confirmed as a Missouri Synod Lutheran, my being 100% German American, my being conservative, my being Republican, my having lived in Crete 1948-1972, and my lived in Wheaton since 1978 would make things even wore for me today.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: One of the major Trump super PACs is Make America Great Again Inc., known as MAGA Inc. There is one major contributor from Chicago, Eloise Gerson, who in all donated $150,000. Gerson, who lists her occupation in FEC records as real estate, is a former chair of the Chicago Republican Party and is currently, according to the Cook County Republican Party website, the committeeperson of the 2nd Ward. She also once led the 42nd Ward GOP organization. She is allied with a group of staunch Trump backers in Illinois, including Darren Bailey. She donated to his congressional and gubernatorial campaigns. A visitor to Trump’s Mar-a-Lago resort multiple times, Gerson is also running in Tuesday’s primary as a Trump delegate from the 5th Congressional District.

— Mistakes come back to haunt state Rep. Adam Niemerg in heated downstate race. Niemerg’s Republican primary opponent, Jim Acklin, also faces nasty claims in the 102nd District race. – Rich Miller (COMMENT: If you run as a Republican, the more of the following that you are, the more negative that your opponents will go against you: conservative, White, male, older, non-poor, non-veteran, Protestant, German American, and/or if your ancestors have been in America for a long time. Further, the more of the aforesaid that you are, the more that your “mistakes” will come back to haunt you.)
https://chicago.suntimes.com/columnists/2024/03/15/adam-niemerg-jim-acklin-102nd-illinois-house-republican-primary-race-election-rich-miller
(FROM THE ARTICLE: “Adam Niemerg sure talks a lot, but what is he not telling you?” the ad’s announcer asked. “Well, there’s the DUI Niemerg got, more than twice the limit. And how he pleaded guilty to obscene conduct.” OK, let’s stop right there for a moment. Niemerg was busted in 2003 for DUI, speeding and possession/consumption of alcohol by a minor. He paid a fine and had to go to treatment. Then, on 4/20 (heh) of 2006, Niemerg was busted for obscene conduct. He pleaded guilty, paid a fine and was given 90 days supervision. Niemerg has not addressed the claims via his own advertising, even though “obscene conduct” can conjure up quite a large number of scenarios. Also, a lot of homeless people charged with peeing on trees end up in a heap of legal trouble, so it’s not that funny to them. The anti-Niemerg ad is also being pushed hard online, and as of last Friday afternoon, it had 232,000 YouTube views, which is more than twice the total population of a House district.)

— This is how much income you need to ‘live comfortably,’ data shows – Stephanie Weaver (COMMENT: Do you have enough income to live comfortably? My Civil Service Retirement System (CSRS) pension is only $65,165/year because my Democrat superiors in the federal government wasted my career and forced me to take their early retirement “offer” in 1997 when I was 49 years old. My Social Security is only $2,612/year because it is dramatically reduced because I get a CSRS pension. While I worked for the federal government for almost 30 years, I used my income to earn a job-related bachelor’s degree, three master’s degrees, six professional certifications, and a professional license. I paid into Social Security for 10 years 1964-1973 while I washed dishes, cleaned golf shoes, chipped slag, pumped gasoline, delivered mail, worked on an automobile assembly line, sold tires, automotive services, and major appliances, and pumped more gasoline.)
https://www.fox32chicago.com/news/money-income-need-to-live-comfortably-us-data
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The study found that a person needs an average of $96,500 for sustainable comfort in a major U.S. city. It’s even more expensive for families, who need to make an average combined income of about $235,000 to support two adults and two children without the pressure of living paycheck to paycheck. The research also revealed that it takes the most money to live comfortably as a single person in New York City, requiring $66.62 in hourly wages, or an annual salary of $138,570. In six cities, a family must make over $300k to raise two kids comfortably. Two working adults need to make a particularly high combined income in San Francisco ($339,123); San Jose ($334,547); Boston ($319,738); Arlington, VA ($318,573); New York City ($318,406); and Oakland, CA ($316,243) to raise two children with enough money for needs, wants and savings.)

— Democrat and RINO leaders ever-increasingly promote Haley voters. In your precinct, municipality, township, and county, what percent of those who vote for Haley in March will vote for Biden in November?
https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/politics/elections/2024/03/10/donald-trump-nikki-haley-voters-protest-2024-election/72868201007/
(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.)

https://kdhnews.com/news/texas/texas-voters-say-yes-to-all-13-props-on-the-ballot/article_0514c5a0-6537-5d50-a759-f1050f5f1863.html

TYLER MORNING TELEGRAPH
— Texas voters say ‘Yes’ to all 13 props on the ballot (COMMENT: Proposition #12 got 96% YES, #13 95% YES, #8 92% YES, #10 90% YES, etc.)
https://tylerpaper.com/news/texas/texas-voters-say-yes-to-all-13-props-on-the-ballot/article_2310fd7a-c9f7-5d30-a6f6-823fdf394d72.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Voters in the Republican party across Texas headed to the polls on Tuesday to weigh in on 13 propositions on the GOP ballot. Each one got a solid thumbs up. They ranged from questions on issues of immigration to taxation and more. But they’re not policy referendums and aren’t intended to become constitutional amendments. They’re more like a poll for the Republican party to gauge the opinions of voters on issues. GOP voters were asked whether they support the following propositions. The answer was a resounding ‘Yes’ for each one.)

GOPUSA ILLINOIS
— Political parties exist to help elect candidates who can and will defend and advance their platform. The Republican Party platform is conservative. The following are suggested yes/no questions for the Illinois Republican Party to ask Illinois Republicans. – Dave diersen
http://www.gopillinois.com

Should the Illinois Republican Party:
— 1. Defend and advance its platform, that is, should it dump its “Democrat Lite” policy?
— 2. Promote the personal responsibility plank in its platform and oppose Democrat promotion of dependency on government and charity?
— 3. Promote the traditional marriage and family plank in its platform and oppose Democrat promotion of LGBTQ?
— 4. Promote the right to life plank in its platform and oppose Democrat promotion of abortion?
— 5. Promote the immigration plank on its platform and oppose Democrat promotion of mass/illegal immigration?
— 6. Promote the illegal drugs plank in its platform and oppose Democrat promotion of booze, gambling, pot, and other vices?
— 7. Promote the Second Amendment plank in its platform and oppose Democrat diminishment of Second Amendment rights?
— 8. Promote the equal opportunity (no race of gender based preference giving) plank in its platform and oppose Democrat promotion of patronage, political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, and age discrimination?

Of course, conservatives (Republicans) will answer YES to the aforesaid questions and anti-conservatives (Democrat plants, Libertarian plants, Green plants, Independent plants, and RINOs) will answer NO.

CHICAGO SUN-TIMES
— What color is a trusted face? Some Chicago police officers are upset that a CPD video promoting the upcoming sergeants’ exam leaves out a certain category of cop (White). – Neil Steinberg (COMMENT: To get more and more and more votes from minorities, Democrats ever-increasingly promote more and more and more hatred against Whites.)
https://chicago.suntimes.com/columnists/2024/03/05/chicago-police-department-promotional-video-sergeants-exam-steinberg
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Six more officers urge hard work. To an outsider, it’s an unexceptional piece of management propaganda. So what’s the trouble? Let’s slide over to Second City Cop, an unofficial, relentlessly toxic Chicago police blog, and tune into the chatter: “The only white is the shirt” “Not one Caucasian in that mentor group. … This is very insulting and straight up racist. This is the new city of Chicago, unbelievable. They do not even try to hide the total hatred for the Caucasian police officers.” “Irish need not apply.” “If you’re a white stereotypical male of Irish/Italian/Slavic decent, the city no longer needs you.” . . . Maybe I should make their case for them. Chicago is 30% Black; only 22% of CPD is, and just 16% of sergeants. Must they tuck a token white face in their internal video? Is that really necessary? Apparently so, in some quarters. The biggest fiction floated in the academy is that there are no white or Black police officers, that everybody is blue. Uh-huh. Given how bent out of shape some officers are at not seeing themselves reflected in this video, that isn’t the case. . .Frustration vibrates off the comments, particularly directed toward “merit” promotions — which some see as a cut-to-the-front-of-the-line dodge around the test, permanently blemishing officers who didn’t make the grade. Others see the test itself as skewed to favor whites.)

WASHINGTON EXAMINER
— Even immigration is no free lunch – Conn Carroll (COMMENT: My critics/opponents want cheap labor. They have always demonized me, denigrated me, and condemned me as being grossly overpaid. I should write a book about my critics/opponents. I would focus on those whose parents are/were wealthy, who bought them cars, who paid for their college degree(s), who got them good jobs, etc.)
https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/opinion/2903666/even-immigration-is-no-free-lunch/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Libertarian think tank scholars would have you believe that importing cheap foreign labor is a win-win for everybody. Employers get cheap labor, immigrants get higher pay, and consumers get cheaper goods and services. American workers aren’t hurt, the libertarians claim, because native workers won’t do the jobs foreign workers will, and they actually benefit by using cheaper services to allow them to work longer hours in higher-paying professions (e.g., a lawyer who can work more billable hours since he can buy dinner instead of cooking it himself). The libertarian case that adding to the supply of cheap labor never reduced native wages was always wrong. Harvard University economist George Borjas eloquently explained why years ago here. But now, the Wall Street Journal is even reporting that cheap foreign labor has other drawbacks, too. In an article titled “Rich Countries Are Becoming Addicted to Cheap Labor,” Tom Fairless reports: “Many business owners say that bringing in low-skilled foreign workers has become essential, as local populations age and labor forces shrink. … To some economists, however, dependence on imported workers is approaching unhealthy levels in some places, stifling productivity growth and helping businesses delay the search for more sustainable solutions to labor shortages.”)

They continue to do everything that they can to flood America with illegals; Democrats because illegals vote for Democrats and RINOs because RINOs want cheap labor.)

The more of the aforesaid planks that my critics/opponents reject, the harder that they work against me. I should write a book about my critics/opponents who are working against me the hardest. In 2021, they ended my service as the Republican fundraiser for Wheaton Independence Day parades and fireworks.)
https://www.newsmax.com/newsfront/cpac-conservatives-straw-poll/2024/02/25/id/1154886/
(COMMENT: Newsmax was voted by the Conservative Political Action Conference the “most trusted” cable news outlet in America — trouncing rival Fox News by a whopping 34 points, according to a straw poll conducted at the annual conference. CPAC announced the findings of the survey Sunday after four days of meetings in Washington, D.C. Each year CPAC organizes the nation’s most influential conservative conference, drawing major political and celebrity figures weighing in on policy issues and political races. The CPAC poll findings showed: 49% said Newsmax, when asked which network do you “trust the most.”
Only 15% said the same about Fox News. 29% chose “none” of the options as a trusted outlet. Either CNN or MSNBC was the choice for 1% each.
The survey was conducted by McLaughlin & Associates from Wednesday to Saturday — with a total of 1,478 conservatives participating. Participants appeared to be happy about Newsmax but were less sanguine about Big Tech platforms and their leaders. Some 55% of CPAC attendees singled out Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg as the Big Tech CEO “doing the most to undermine America.” Google CEO Sundar Pichai came in second at 32% with Amazon’s Jeff Bezos at 5% and Apple’s Tim Cook at just 1%. The survey also asked participants what was the best way to combat “woke elites.” Almost a majority, 46%, said it would be to “give to grassroots efforts to mobilize conservatives.” Some 25% said donating “directly to candidates for Congress” was the best approach. Participants completed the survey using a unique six-digit PIN code to eliminate multiple or outside voting.)

Extremely few federal employees make it into the Senior Executive Service. I became eligible for early retirement in 1993 when I was 45.

— JANUARY 01, 1989 FLASHBACK: IN SNOW, IT`S A CUL-DE-SOCKED – Blair Kamin (COMMENT: I have lived on Wheaton’s high-taxed 4-home Cove Court cul-de-sac since 1984. Yesterday, I learned that because of “budget constraints,” Wheaton no longer final plows its cul-de-sacs unless individual snows are more than 2-inches deep. That means that if a cul-de-sac is hit with multiple individual snows in a row, but each of them are less than 2-inches, no final plowing is done no matter how high the snow is piled up in the middle of the cul-de-sac, along the curb, and in front of driveways. I have appealed that final plowing policy to Wheaton’s City Manager. My 2018 Chevrolet Cruze LT has only a 6 1/2-inch ground clearance. Mountains of salt and hope for warm temperatures are not the answers. Per doctor’s orders, because on shoulder/arm injury, I am not supposed to shovel snow this winter.)
https://www.chicagotribune.com/news/ct-xpm-1989-01-01-8902220015-story.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Snow and the cul-de-sac do not mix. The Plow Man had cometh, and as she looked at what he`d left behind, Drake recalled the time a plow operator scooped up neighbors` trash and unloaded it near her front lawn. ”Don`t buy a house on a cul-de-sac unless you want to put up with all that,” said the 45-year-old resident of west suburban Naperville. Last week`s heavy snow reminded thousands of people that they pay a price for living on quiet streets with privacy and gently sweeping curves that are like a snowball heaved at Chicago`s no-nonsense street grid. From Naperville, which has about 700 cul-de-sacs, to northwest suburban Schaumburg, which has about 535 of the dead-end, turn-around streets, the price is paid in destroyed sod, buried mailboxes and driveways that get clogged after there`s no place left for plows to put the snow. ”Mother Nature abhors a void,” said Steven Kaar, operations and maintenance manager for the Naperville Department of Transportation. ”Unfortunately, it`s Mr. Jones` driveway.” The reason for the mess is that the typical snow-clearing vehicle in Naperville, a small pickup truck, isn`t powerful enough to push heavy snow where operators want it to go. In fact, it takes 7 to 10 times longer to clear a cul-de-sac than a through street, according to Naperville officials. That`s bad news for suburban taxpayers, wherever they live. Cul-de-sacs are ”several times more expensive” to clear than regular streets, according to Naperville City Manager Ralph DeSantis. Heavy snow also slows Postal Service carriers. Just try reaching out of your Jeep and putting a letter in a snow-encased mailbox. ”I`ll try and deliver it (to the door),” said mailman Tom Stafford, 35, as he headed down a Naperville cul-de-sac. ”I`ve done that at least 20 times today. And I`m only about two-thirds of the way through the route.” Such are the disadvantages of streets where children can play without fear of through traffic and parents don`t have to contend with noise. Homes usually sell for a little more because of the privacy of cul-de-sacs. It also doesn`t hurt that the streets are called cul-de-sacs. To be sure, cul-de-sac is French for ”dead end.” But French adds a touch of class in the same way that English names like Devonshire give snob appeal to little subdivisions on the prairie. Yet that has not rescued the cul-de-sac from being ranked behind arterial streets, major collector streets and local side streets on the snow-clearance priority lists of suburban traffic engineers. The engineers, who make their rankings on the basis of which street handles the most traffic, regularly hear from armchair critics. ”They neglect roads like this,” said 20-year-old John Delgado, a transplanted Californian who was house-sitting on a cul-de-sac in Naperville last week. ”Out here`s where it really matters. . . . People have to be able to get out of their house to get on the main road.” Suburban officials like to deflect such criticism by pointing out that cul-de-sacs may be more manageable than Chicago`s side streets. In the city, cars often cram both sides of the side streets-and wind up covered with snow after plowing. In contrast, it`s illegal to park on the street during certain night hours in some suburbs. But some residents can`t get their cars out of the driveway after a heavy snow. That`s because plows are supposed to dump snow into ”parkways,” the city-owned strips that are wedged between the sidewalk and the curb. But the parkways are filled with mailboxes, street lights, trees and fireplugs. Those obstacles often force plows to push snow into driveways and sidewalks. ”It`s not intentional and it`s not malicious,” said Naperville`s Kaar, sounding like one who has been accused of such sins. ”Again, it`s the law of physics. . . . You come up to a void and the plow fills that void.” Another problem: Plows often go out at night and during snowstorms, when it`s difficult to see. As a result, they sometimes go over the curb and gouge sod. That some suburbs pay for replacing sod underlines the fact that cul-de-sac power is not taken lightly. Naperville, for example, has at least 17,000 residents who live on cul-de-sacs, according to Kaar. That`s more than 20 percent of the suburb`s 79,805 people. The snow-clearing problem also has forced suburbs to purchase something called the articulated end-loader-a hulking, bulldozer-like contraption that bends in the middle like large city buses. That feature allows the loader to make a complete, uninterrupted turn around cul-de-sacs. But unlike the weak pickup truck, the loader has the power-most of the time-to put snow where it should go, officials said. There`s just one problem: The end loaders cost $65,000 to $80,000 apiece- compared to $15,000 for a pickup truck. As a result, Naperville and Schaumburg have only a handful of them. The fact that end-loaders can travel at only 18 m.p.h. also brings complaints from residents who think it takes too long to clear their streets. But residents like Diane Drake aren`t leaving their cul-de-sacs-not because of an inconvenience that strikes a few times a year. ”I wouldn`t move to a regular street,” Drake said. ”This is pretty good. Until it snows.”)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: Amid Illinois confronting a persistent migrant crisis, a Naperville councilman, Josh McBroom, is proactively addressing the situation. He has proposed a plan to connect willing local residents with asylum-seekers requiring shelter. McBroom discussed the concept of compiling a list of Naperville households willing to host these newcomers at a recent city council meeting, as per the Chicago Tribune. While there seems to be a split among city officials, the proposal has garnered some backing. This has prompted staff to explore the viability of a grassroots hosting program, leveraging the city’s affluence as a refuge for those in need. “We do have a very affluent community. A lot of big homes,” McBroom highlighted the potential in Naperville for private citizens to fill the gap where government funds may fall short, according to the same Tribune report. Following Texas Governor Greg Abbott’s move to relocate over 30,000 migrants to the Chicago area, including collar counties like Naperville due to logistical changes, McBroom’s initiative emerges. While still in the early stages, this plan could provide a direct means of assistance to these individuals, many of whom encounter harsh temperatures and resource shortages upon their arrival. “I’m hearing stories about little kids at train stations without coats on,” McBroom said, painting a grim picture of the migrants’ plight to the Chicago Tribune. Aligned with local initiatives, Illinois Gov. J.B. Pritzker revealed a commitment of $17 million in state funds to assist municipalities in tackling the migrant crisis, as reported by the Daily Herald. The Metropolitan Mayors Caucus, granted $11 million from this fund, will distribute grants to communities displaying readiness to aid migrants with housing and food. While recognizing the intricacies of his proposal and addressing concerns regarding local schools and city management roles, McBroom maintains the necessity of the initiative in response to what he deems the “inhumane” current state of affairs. The implementation specifics of McBroom’s proposal remain unclear. The challenge extends beyond city council deliberations, encompassing logistics, legality, and ethical considerations. Nevertheless, the growing support for action in Naperville indicates that amidst the cold winds, there is a compassionate undercurrent eager to reshape the narrative for those stranded in the suburb’s embrace. McBroom shared with the Daily Herald, “My idea would be let’s find out … let’s find out who’s willing to help.”)
— Naperville Councilman Proposes Unique Solution to Migrant Housing Crisis Daring Chardonnay Antifa. Affluent Chicago suburb residents challenged to open homes to asylum-seekers instead of criticizing from the sidelines. Natalie Frank, Ph.D. (COMMENT: Constructively, McBroom is pushing to make Naperville a sanctuary city. If/when Democrats and/or RINOs try to make your county, your township, your municipality, and/or your school district official sanctuaries for illegals, who will lead the fight against that? I will lead the fight against that in DuPage County, Milton Township, Wheaton, and Wheaton Warrenville School District 200. Previously, in Wheaton, I led successful fights against video gambling and pot.)

LOCAL SNOW REMOVAL QUOTES
— I am paying $40/hour for snow shoveling. I did not start earning $40/hour in today’s dollars until I was 24 years old in 1973. I had worked for IRS for 2 years. I had earned a bachelor’s degree in management from NIU in 1970. I was taking graduate evening business courses at Loyola. In today’s dollars, I earned only $18.99-$20.25/hour while I delivered mail for the Park Forest Post Office 1966-1969.

What positions do the following have on Democrat and RINO leaders allowing/encouraging anyone and everyone in the world to come to America illegally and to stay in America illegally if they claim asylum: a) your Republican Congressman, b) your Republican state senator and representative, c) the Republican leaders of your county, township, municipality, and school district, d) the Illinois Republican Party (IRP) leaders, e) your representative on the IRP State Central Committee, f) the leaders of your Republican county and township/ward party organizations, and g) the Republican candidates on the March 19, 2024 Republican primary ballot in your precinct?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ij3bgJQF7go
https://news.yahoo.com/just-fraction-migrants-living-chicago-001300483.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: With more than 14,000 migrants still living in one of more than two dozen city-operated shelters in Chicago, only a fraction of all the asylum seekers who have arrived in Chicago over the past 16 months have received the permits they need to start looking for jobs. As of Monday morning, city officials said 14,717 asylum seekers were staying in the city’s 27 shelters, and more than half of those are coming up on the city’s 60-day limit for staying in shelters. . .It’s not clear how many applications have been submitted, but as of Dec. 29, U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services had processed work permits and temporary protected status applications for only 1,480 new arrivals, according to city data obtained by CBS 2. Once those applications are processed, they also need to be approved. Sources said only 284 asylum seekers in Chicago have gotten work permits, and 279 have received their Social Security card. That’s about 1%. Worse, city data suggests applications did not start processing until the week of Nov. 9.)

— Monday was deadline for Illinois owners of assault weapons prior to ban to register their guns – DARIUS JOHNSO
(FROM THE ARTICLE: As of last week, only 15,000 people completed the disclosures, according to Illinois State Police. There are nearly 2.5 million firearm owner’s IDs in the state. However, it’s unclear how many of those FOID holders own assault weapons, high-capacity magazines, or rapid-firing triggers. . .In November, state police said it is up to prosecutors in the state’s 102 counties to enforce the law, but it’s unclear what penalties would be in store for those who fail to register their weapons. Penalties can vary for illegal weapons. Carrying or possessing unauthorized assault weapons could result in a misdemeanor, with one year in jail or a fine of up to $2,500. Manufacturing, selling, or purchasing an unauthorized weapon could constitute a felony and result in up to 10 years in prison and a fine of up to $25,000.)

— FRONT PAGE WITH PICTURE: Here’s what to know about the job market in 2024. – Talia Soglin (COMMENT: What was the Chicago-area job market like when you graduated from college? It was not good for me when I graduated in August of 1970 from NIU with a bachelor’s degree in management. Potential employers viewed me as being draft bait. They did not believe that my application for a financial hardship draft deferment would be approved. My father had died suddenly in October of 1969. My mother had never worked outside the home and she had never attended high school. Further, employers were under ever-increasing pressure to hire minorities, females, and veterans. Further, my GPA was not that high because instead of studying, I had worked as many hours as I could for the Park Forest Post Office 1966-1969. Consequently, I accepted the only job offer that I got, it was from Firestone to be a Retail Store Sales Manager. I soon learned a) that my job did not really require a college degree, b) that I was not using what I had learned at NIU, c) that my duties frequently included pumping gasoline, mounting and balancing tires, changing oil and filters, installing batteries, delivering major appliances, etc., d) that advancement would be very slow, and e) my boss disapproved of my being a college graduate, draft avoider, Protestant, German American, and Crete resident. I was assigned to his store by the Firestone Store district office. He never would have hired me.)

— Jefferson County Sheriff shares gun control concerns (FROM THE ARTICLE: “Anyone wishing to delay registering their firearms, waiting for the U.S. Supreme Court rule on this matter would be safe to do so.”)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: Jefferson County Sheriff Jeff Bullard, however, took to social media ahead of the affidavit deadline to share that he believed the law was unconstitutional. In a question and answer style video posted on the Jefferson County Sheriff’s Office Facebook page Friday, Bullard said he had been receiving many concerned calls from gun owners who wanted to know if they should register their firearms as constitutional challenges to PICA carry on in state and federal courts. He directed people to the ISP website for registration and more information, before claiming, “Anyone wishing to delay registering their firearms, waiting for the U.S. Supreme Court rule on this matter would be safe to do so.” He continued, saying, “I would never advise anyone to knowingly violate the law, but the law has to be constitutionally valid on its face, and this gun ban is not,” citing previous Supreme Court cases he believed demonstrated his argument, included New York State Pistol and Rifle Association v. Bruen and D.C. v Heller. Bullard said he and other, unnamed Illinois sheriffs who oppose the law “won’t enforce it” and “won’t support it in any way, shape, or form.” Bullard stated that he believed the best way to combat violent crime was “aggressive policing, investigations, prosecution, that is supported by sound sentencing decisions by our judges.”)

HOMETOWN REGISTER
— IRS ready to test free-file program in 13 states (COMMENT: As long as Democrats run IRS, Republicans should use TurboTax. In 1978, the Democrats who ran IRS disallowed the graduate a) business courses that I had taken at Loyola 1972-1976 and b) accounting courses that I had taken at DePaul since 1976. I was 29, I had worked for IRS for almost 7 years, and my salary was $106,785/year (GS-12 Step 4) in today’s dollars. They would not have disallowed those courses I had not been a union member or if I had been a Democrat, minority, female, and/or veteran. They disallowed those courses to punish me for my complaining about their use of “up-or-out” to get rid of me, that is, their use of political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, and age discrimination to get rid of me. They had made it extremely clear that they would never promote me to GS-13 because I was too old. They ignored/dismissed/belittled the aforesaid course work and that I was on track to pass the CPA examination which I did in 1979. They outrageously/disgustingly/unethically argued that the courses were not job-related, that they did not help me carry out my job duties, that they qualified me for a new trade or business, and that I took them to get a job in the private sector. They ignored/dismissed/belittled the requirements of my position descriptions and the fact that I stated in my Loyola and DePaul applications that I wanted to take the courses because the employee manual that IRS gave me in 1971 encouraged me to take graduate business, accounting, and law courses. They helped Money Magazine make my deducting the courses look improper in its 4-page February 1978 article on me. Again, as long as Democrats run IRS, Republicans should use TurboTax.)

The losers in a 2020 California referendum are back again with a sneakier version. – William McGurn (COMMENT: Democrats and RINOs use Affirmative Action and DEI to get rid of Republicans. Congress is run by Democrats and RINOs. GAO works for Congress. In Diersen vs. GAO, constructively, GAO successfully argued that it treated me exactly like Congress wanted it to treat its employees who shared my demographics: conservative, Republican, White, male, old, non-veteran, Protestant, German American, and have ancestors who have been in America for a long time. GAO wasted my career, took many adverse actions against me, and forced me to take its early retirement “offer” in 1997 when I was 49. It is called political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, and age discrimination.)

BREAKTHROUGH IDEAS
— December 31, 2023 Newsletter: The Sanctuary Problem
https://www.breakthrough-ideas.com/blog
(FROM THE NEWSLETTER: Here are some important questions to ask your uncurious elected officials: 1. How many “newcomers” have entered your schools in the last two years and how does that compare to the previous five years? 2. It is against the law for landlords to ask about immigration status. Do you have any way of tracking how many illegals are renting in the community or being otherwise housed by non-profits? 3. How many illegals are using local food pantries, and are they having supply issues? 4. What hard benefits are illegals receiving? Debit cards, transport, housing support? 5. What is the usage and cost of services at medical facilities by illegals, and are the organizations getting paid for the services, or is it documented as charity care? 6. Is there a separate tracking system the public can see that shows incidents of any crimes committed by illegals, and if not, why not? 7. What are our community’s specific responses to the migrant issue? 8. For state officials – How much is this costing? Who is getting the contracts for all the support? Is there a daily tracker on the costs and numbers of illegals?)

I should write a book about all the Republican candidates on ballots in my precinct since 2000 who have lost elections.

The ever-increasing horrific disaster caused by Democrat and RINO success in flooding America with illegals is ever-increasingly worsening. I should write a book about those who not only reject the immigration plank in the Republican Party platform, but who destroy those like me who support that plank. I would focus on past and present a) RINO leaders of the Illinois Republican Party, DuPage County Republican Central Committee, and Milton Township Republican Organization, b) RINO leaders of Illinois, DuPage County, Milton Township, and Wheaton, c) RINO candidates on ballots in my precinct, d) conservative leaders, e) religious leaders, and f) those who I have sued.

— Champaign County sheriff expects little change in light of new gun regulation – SAMUEL LISEC
https://www.news-gazette.com/news/champaign-county-sheriff-expects-little-change-in-light-of-new-gun-regulation/article_2077db33-1e74-5b1c-86e1-1717a6a3db4d.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: But the law also allowed existing owners of assault-style firearms one year to register their guns with state police, with the aim of “ensuring that law enforcement knows the location of these weapons of war and who to hold accountable if they fall into the wrong hands,” a news release from the governor’s office said. Heuerman said he does not believe the Champaign County Sheriff’s office will play a large role in the rollout of the new requirement because it is unlikely that deputies will regularly encounter people whose sole crime they are committing is failing to register their regulated firearms. The statute does not require deputies go door to door to check if people have assault-style weapons guns in their home, the sheriff said. When deputies do come into contact with individuals who are possessing a gun unlawfully, it is typically because that person is using it recklessly or threateningly. In the latter instance, HB 5471 could serve as another means of prosecution for the Champaign County State’s Attorney’s office, he said. In a scenario in which a deputy encounters a person who has neglected to register their firearm, and they are not possessing or wielding it in any other unlawful way, Heuerman said he does not see a criminal arrest likely taking place in those circumstances, but rather a conversation taking place in which that person is reminded they are registered to their firearm with ISP. But if deputies were to make contact with that person who has failed to register their assault-style firearm in subsequent encounters, then the sheriff’s office could escalate their involvement in making an arrest and report for the State’s Attorney’s office to follow up on. “I don’t want to suggest people don’t do it, that’s not what I’m saying. The law is the law,” Heuerman said. “But I just don’t think the frequency is going to be there where we’re running into people violating the statute intentionally without maliciously using that weapon in some way.”)

https://www.shawlocal.com/my-suburban-life/2023/12/30/dupage-county-working-to-ensure-asylum-seekers-are-transported-to-chicago/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The DuPage County Office of Homeland Security and Emergency Management is working closely with local and regional partners to ensure asylum seekers who have been arriving on out-of-state buses are transported to the city of Chicago. “Our primary goal is to help these new arrivals get to their destination in the city as safely, and with as few delays, as possible. We are grateful for the collaboration with state, regional, and local officials, who have been enormously helpful in ensuring the safety and security of those arriving in DuPage County, as well as our residents,” County Board Chair Deborah Conroy said. Since Dec. 14, 49 buses have arrived at train stations in DuPage County containing 2,081 passengers, according to DuPage OHSEM. They boarded trains to Chicago, where city teams guided them to Chicago’s landing zone, which is the only designated location in the state of Illinois for asylum seekers. Residents who would like to assist asylum seekers by donating food, clothing or small household items or to learn more about the requirements for sheltering, please visit www.Chicago.gov/support .)

— Google, Facebook Slash DEI Programs in 2023 – Lee Barney (COMMENT: Since the 1960s, Democrats and RINOs have spent many trillions of dollars on Affirmative Action (AA) and DEI, that is, they have spent many trillions of dollars on race and gender based preference giving, that is, they have spent many trillions of dollars on reparations, that is, they have spent many trillions of dollars on patronage, political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, and age discrimination. How has that impacted you? My Democrat GAO, IRS, and Post Office superiors used AA and DEI to unofficially justify delaying my promotions, to not promote me, to give me smaller or no pay increases, and to force me to retire early in 1997. Since 2000, RINO government and political leaders in Illinois, DuPage County, Milton Township, and Wheaton have used AA and DEI to unofficially justify taking many adverse actions against me. They rudely ended my service as the Republican fundraiser for Wheaton Independence Day parades and fireworks in 2021. They never would have done that if I had been a minority, female, younger, or veteran. They ever-increasingly stress that I am not minority, not female, not younger, not veteran, Protestant, German American, that my ancestors have been in America for a long time, and that I was a Crete resident 1948-1972.)
