Ascencio’s lawsuit marks the second time in weeks that the city of The Dalles has been embroiled in public controversy stemming from employee issues. – Tess Riski (COMMENT: I should write a book about how my Democrat superiors, supervisors, coworkers, and subordinates in the federal government treated me.

https://www.wweek.com/news/courts/2021/09/08/city-of-the-dalles-employee-says-he-was-terminated-for-reporting-racist-remarks-by-co-workers-and-supervisor/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Saul Ascencio alleges that city management and his direct supervisor fostered a hostile work environment where employees openly made racist comments toward him, according to the lawsuit, filed Aug. 31 in Wasco County Circuit Court. Within a few months of starting with the public works department in July of 2017, the lawsuit alleges, two white coworkers confronted Ascencio and asked him if he had “cross[ed] the border.” Other coworkers allegedly called Ascencio a “lazy Mexican” and claimed the city only hired him because he is a “brown token.” The complaint further alleges a white co-worker openly used the N-word in a break room to describe a Black person. “A white supervisor informed Plaintiff that white coworkers were scared to work with Plaintiff because ‘they think he is an MS-13 gang member,’” the lawsuit alleges. “A white coworker repeatedly complained about Mexicans speaking Spanish instead of English… A supervisor berated the Plaintiff in the presence of coworkers because he was wearing a hat that said ‘Compton.’”)

They stress that I promote the traditional family, right to life, immigration, illegal drugs, Second Amendment, and equal opportunity (no race or gender based preference giving) planks in the Republican Party platform. They stress that I oppose the promotion of dependency on government, dependency on charity, LGBTQ, abortion, mass/illegal immigration, booze, gambling, pot, and other vices, diminishment of First and Second Amendment rights, patronage, political affiliation discrimination, wokeness, BLM, CRT, 1619, reparations, reverse discrimination, and age discrimination. They blame me and blame my GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters for their problems, for your problems, for my problems, and for everyone’s problems. They stress my demographics: White, male, old (born in 1948), non-veteran, conservative, Republican, heterosexual, married, non-poor, gun owner, baptized, raised, and confirmed as a Missouri Synod Lutheran, 100% German American, federal employee for almost 30 years, federal retiree for almost 24 years, and that my ancestors have been in America since 1844.

I would focus on those who have taken the biggest adverse actions against me.)

That income also enabled me to buy a new 1972 Corvette in 1971 and to pay for tuition and books for graduate business courses at Loyola for the previous 9 months.)

They hint/imply/argue/shout that they earned far more than I did in today’s dollars when I was 22 ($48,445/year), 23 ($59,258/year), 24 ($71, 697/year), 25 ($85,935/year), 31 ($97,395/year), 38 ($102,188/year), and 49 ($132,845/year).)

NPR
— What The End Of Unemployment Aid Means For The Job Market And Economy – SCOTT HORSLEY (COMMENT: What did you do to avoid unemployment? I took what my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes say were bad jobs, jobs that they would never stoop to take. I took many job-related university courses, earned a job-related bachelor’s degree when I was 21 in 1970, and three job-related master’s degrees in 1976, 1980, and 1997. I passed tests to earn two job-related professional certifications in 1979 and 1981, earned a job-related professional license in 1981, and grandfathered into four job-related professional certifications in 1990, 1994, 1996, and 1997. Further, I withstood tremendous efforts by my Democrat superiors to get rid of me. Despite their tremendous efforts, I got promoted to GS-9, currently $59,258/year, in 1972; to GS-11, currently $71,697/year, in 1973; to GS-12, currently $85,935/year, in 1974; and to GS-13, currently $102,188/year, in 1986.)

— The Strange Tale of the Freedom Phone, a Smartphone for Conservatives. A 22-year-old Bitcoin millionaire wants Republicans to ditch their iPhones for a low-end handset that he hopes to turn into a political tool. – Jack Nicas
https://www.nytimes.com/2021/09/06/technology/freedom-phone-smartphone-conservatives.html
— COMMENT: Ever-increasingly, Democrats viciously demonize, denigrate, and condemn those who do not promote wearing masks.
https://www.nytimes.com/2021/09/06/opinion/coronavirus-masks-school-board-meetings.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Public schools have long been an irresistible battleground for America’s culture warriors. On issues ranging from sex education to desegregation, public prayer to evolution to the Pledge of Allegiance, cultural cage matches are frequently fought on the backs of local schools, with board members, educators and students too often caught in the fray.)
— Dawn Turner Looks Back on Her ’70s Girlhood, and Those Who Got Left Behind – Linda Villarosa (COMMENT: Did you seek admission to the University of Illinois in Urbana? I did not. Neither my parents nor I could afford it. But UIC did admit me in 1966. I could afford UIC a) because my parents provided me with room and board in their home in Crete, b) because I owned a new car to commute to/from classes and work that I had paid for with money that I had saved washing dishes for the minimum wage in the basement of the S.S. Kresges in Chicago Heights 1964-1966, and c) because I worked as many hours that I could part-time for the Park Forest Post Office.)
https://www.nytimes.com/2021/09/06/books/review/dawn-turner-three-girls-from-bronzeville.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Driving Turner’s narrative is a vexing question that continues to haunt her: How did she manage to accumulate the signifiers of success — a college degree, a career, a husband, a home outside the city — while Kim lost a baby as a teenager, sank into alcoholism and died of a heart attack at 23; and Debra battled drug addiction and eventually shot a man to death? . . . Dawn, Debra and Kim all had a leg up in life, as so-called children of the dream: the first generation to realize the hard-won freedoms of the civil rights movement. But only Turner was able to grab hold of the advantages, entering the University of Illinois at Urbana on the early tide of affirmative action, one of just a thousand African American students in a sea of 34,500.)

NEW YORK POST
— Why most Americans no longer honor unions on Labor Day – Editorial (COMMENT: What is your attitude toward union members? I should write a book about those who have used my almost 12 years of union membership while I worked for the Post Office 1966-1969 and for IRS 1971-1980 against me the most. They hint/imply/argue/shout that because of federal unions, I was grossly overpaid and my benefits were far too generous. In today’s dollars, my salary increased from $48,445/year in 1971 to $97,395/year in 1980. In my defense, I earned a job-related bachelor’s degree (NIU-management) when I was 21 in 1970, a job-related master’s degree (Loyola- MBA) when I was 27, a job-related professional certification (CPA) when I was 30, and I had almost completed the requirements for a second job-related master’s degree (DePaul-Accounting).)

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.)

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.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: The federal government enhanced unemployment benefits during the pandemic, first by adding $600 weekly and then reducing this to $300 weekly. Critics believe this is what has held many workers back: They can get paid to not work.)

— 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.)

In 1997, the Democrats who ran GAO forced me to take their early retirement “offer” so that they could give my job and my preferred corner office to my Black Democrat subordinate, which they did. Previously, to give preference to my Democrat coworkers and subordinates who minority, female, and or younger, they gave me unfair performance expectations and appraisals, always ranked me in the bottom half of my coworkers for pay-for-performance purposes, did not promote me beyond GS-13, got rid of my mentor in 1987, kept me off audits of IRS for all but 3 of the almost 18 years that I worked for GAO, and forced me to take a $20,361 (21%) pay cut in today’s dollars to transfer from IRS to GAO in 1980.)

NATIONAL LAW REVIEW
— Combating Whistleblower Retaliation: How to Maximize Your Recovery (COMMENT: While I worked for the Democrats who GAO 1980-1997, IRS 1971-1980, and Post Office 1966-1969, I blew the whistle on political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, religious discrimination, nation origin discrimination, and age discrimination. I should write a book about that.)
https://www.natlawreview.com/article/combating-whistleblower-retaliation-how-to-maximize-your-recovery
(FROM THE ARTICLE: All too often, whistleblowers who disclose fraud to their employers, law enforcement, or government agencies suffer retaliation by their employers. Whistleblower retaliation takes a serious toll on whistleblowers both financially and emotionally, including an inability to pay living expenses, reputational harm, alienation, blacklisting, and emotional distress. Whistleblower protection laws can provide a potent remedy, but before bringing a retaliation claim, it is crucial to assess the options under federal and state law and develop a strategy to achieve the optimal recovery. Key issues to consider include the scope of protected whistleblowing, the burden of proof, the damages that a prevailing whistleblower can recover, the forum where the claim would be litigated, and the impact of the retaliation claim on a whistleblower rewards claim.)

— Staggering US wealth inequality heaps long-term harm on to minority children.
