I was a union member 1966-1969 while I worked for the Post Office and I was a union member 1971-1980 while I worked for IRS. Overwhelmingly, my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes are filled with hatred against unions, against current union members, and against former union members. I should write a book about my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes who have demonstrated their hatred the most against unions, against current union members, and against former union members.)

Nevertheless, I earned a) a job-related bachelor’s degree when I was 21 in 1970 and job-related master’s degrees when I was 27, 31, and 48, b) job-related professional certifications when I was 30, 32, 41, 45, 47, and 48, and c) a job-related professional license when I was 32. I should write a book about those in the following who have been the biggest bad mouthers and backstabbers since 2000: Illinois Republican Party, DuPage County Republican Central Committee, Milton Township Republican Organization, Illinois, DuPage County, Milton Township, Wheaton, and Wheaton Chamber of Commerce.)
https://www.forbes.com/sites/chrislowney/2021/04/20/treachery-trust-and-courage-how-to-avoid-organizational-hell/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Every large organization, for example, suffers at least a few back-stabbers who badmouth or undermine colleagues, or who take credit for others’ ideas, or who play office politics by fomenting tribal rivalries that pit work teams against each other. Such soul-deadening behavior has hellish organizational consequences: productivity erodes, employees become alienated and unhappy, and so on.)

I would focus on those who promote dependency on government, dependency on charity, LGBTQ, abortion, mass/illegal immigration, booze, gambling, pot, and other vices, abolition of the First and Second Amendments, patronage, political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, and age discrimination. I would focus on those who stress that they are a member of a church that they attend church services, and that they give money to a church.)

POLITICO ILLINOIS
— The Illinois GOP has never been a fundraising juggernaut, and yet the first quarter numbers were still pretty bleak. For the first quarter, Illinois GOP reported receiving a little more than $115,000 in donations, leaving $74,374 in the bank after expenses, according to the State Board of Elections. Still, they’re worthy of an asterisk this time after a defeat at the top of the ticket and their new state leader has only been on the job since February. That left the Illinois GOP little time to define the party to potential donors. Is it the party of Donald Trump, for example? Or does it represent Rep. Adam Kinzinger? And what is the vision of party Chairman Don Tracy? The next quarter will be the real test of whether Tracy can galvanize support for his party. Another big question: Will billionaire Ken Griffin step in to help the way he did in the general election by funding opposition forces to the Democrats’ graduated income tax referendum? So far he and other donors have been missing from fundraising. The Democratic Party of Illinois, meanwhile, received about $2 million, leaving it with $2.6 million cash on hand. And Democratic Gov. J.B. Pritzker reports having $35 million in the bank, thanks to his self-funding. House Minority Leader Jim Durkin raised $125,000 in the first quarter and had about $267,00 on hand after expenses. His House Republican Organization, which funds GOP reps’ campaigns, raised $111,000, leaving a mere $200 in the bank after expenses. And Senate Minority Leader Dan McConchie raised $68,000 and has $432,000 cash on hand. His caucus committee raised $206,000 and has $209,000 in the bank. He’s new to the job, so it’s worth adding an asterisk there, too. Democratic Party leaders, who hold the majority, raked in the cash — even with their big fundraiser, former House Speaker Michael Madigan, out of the picture halfway through the quarter. New House Speaker Emanuel “Chris” Welch raised $1.2 million, with the Chicago Teachers Union making the largest donation: $59,900. Welch also contributed to local campaigns, leaving him $1.2 million cash on hand. And Senate President Don Harmon reported raising $402,000 and has nearly $6 million in the bank after spending $1.2 million primarily on the Senate Democrats’ caucus. – SHIA KAPOS

— How Generations of Presidents (Including Reagan) Wrecked Our Country – Michael Filozof
https://www.americanthinker.com/articles/2021/04/how_generations_of_presidents_including_reagan_wrecked_our_country.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Caldwell argues that the new “de facto constitution” has been used to supersede the Bill of Rights and the black-letter law of the traditional Constitution. Forced busing and forced integration violated the First Amendment right to freedom of association, as did affirmative action for blacks and women. Racial and sex-based preferences offend the Equal Protection Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment. These policies were enacted despite opposition from most Americans. . .Caldwell believes that the upshot of Reagan’s failure to undo the Great Society was the empowerment of minorities, women, immigrants, and wealthy globalist corporate elites (who turned out the be “woke” leftists in contrast with the conservative, buttoned-down corporate culture of the past). The losers were the white, working-class, traditional Americans who still believed in the old Constitution while under relentless wage pressure from immigration, affirmative action, and the offshoring of jobs — and were relentlessly mocked and sneered at by the media, politicians, and corporate oligarchs.)

FILLMORE COUNTY JOURNAL
— Tribal America – Stan Gudmundson, Peterson, MN
http://fillmorecountyjournal.com/tribal-america/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Obviously, there was much that needed correction. We tried to, with all sorts of schemes to include reverse discrimination, through programs like affirmative action, i.e., “black privilege.” But what dead people did to other dead people could not and cannot be fixed by discriminating against living innocents. Individual freedom should not have been sacrificed for tribal collectivism. I once toyed with the idea of becoming an FBI agent but I was advised not to apply. I was the wrong color and gender. The problem with the group rights “solutions” is that there is no fair way to determine who is entitled to what. Moreover, that approach transmutes constitutional guarantees of individual liberty into mere tribalism. It created, and still creates the impetus to further divide and subdivide us into more individual gangs, a consequence not clearly foreseen at the time. We are now split into many more tribes who now even have legally defined special rights. Gender, sexual preference, racial minorities to include black, Hispanic, Indian, illegal immigrants and on and on. Standing is based on power, therefore tribes must compete for attention, favors, resources, and legal status. That promotes unease and even provokes fear and hate of other gangs who are not part of the tribe. It also created a race-baiting industry whose advocates cannot allow racial problems to be solved. They would have to find other employment. The smallest minority is the individual. Our founders understood that and established a constitution based on individual liberty. When individual rights are protected, group rights are protected. A system based on group rights, rather than individual rights, completely obliterates the nature and character of America and the constitution our system is based on. That is why, despite the racial problems we had, group rights collectivization has been and is so dangerous. In the long run, giving tribes/gangs/mobs/hordes/packs legal group rights was never justified. The long-term damage and problems caused by wrecking the constitution, by far outweigh the civil rights issues of those days, despite being as bad as they might have been. Again, the imperative of individual liberty should never have been abandoned. Unless we eliminate the tribal system and unless we return to the system of individual constitutional liberty, the divide in America will become worse. Unfortunately, we will not get rid of tribalism and society/politics will become still nastier. Count on it.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: Can elected public officials discriminate from among the reporters who cover their activities based on who they like and don’t like? Obviously not, according to legal interpretations of the media’s First Amendment rights. More narrowly, can public officials pick and choose among news outlets, allowing some to cover their events while barring others? A federal appeals court in Chicago just answered the latter question in the affirmative. But it qualified its decision by asserting that the official picking and choosing must be based on neutral factors applied across the board.)

— Post-pandemic, some millennials finally decide to start #adulting – JENNIFER ROSNER (DIERSEN: What encouraged you to start adulting? Neither of my outstanding parents attended college. My father was the first of his ancestors to earn a high school diploma. My mother never attended high school. Because my father had brittle (hard to control) type 1 diabetes from age 14, everyone always thought that his days were numbered. He died suddenly of heart failure in 1969 when he was 47 and I was 21. He worked in the office of a nasty chemical plant on the far east side of Chicago Heights 1941-1969. He almost always worked second jobs to pay the family’s bills. He did not buy a new car until he was 45 and it was a bottom of the line 2-door Chevy. His career advancement was limited not only because he had brittle type 1 diabetes, but because he did not have a college degree. Doctors advised him and advised his parents that the stress of getting a college degree would harm his health. The aforesaid encouraged me to take college preparatory courses in high school, get a score of 24 on the ACT, and graduate in the upper 20% of my class. The aforesaid encouraged me to earn money a) to buy a new car to commute to classes at UIC from my parents’ home in Crete, b) to pay for my college expenses, and c) to become a home owner. I did yard work and delivered newspapers 1962-1964; washed dishes 1964-1966; cleaned golf shoes, chipped slag, and pumped gasoline in 1966; delivered mail 1966-1969; worked on an automobile assembly line and as a security guard in 1970; sold tires, automotive services, and major appliances 1970-1971; pumped gasoline 1971-1972; and collected delinquent taxes 1971-1980. I bought a new Pontiac Tempest Sprint (a poor man’s GTO) in 1966, new 1968 Oldsmobile 442 in 1967, new 1969 Dodge Charger SE in 1968, and a new 1972 Corvette in 1971. I bought a new town home in University Park in 1972, a studio condo in downtown Chicago in 1974, and a one bedroom condo in the same building in 1976. I graduated debt-free from NIU in 1970, earned an MBA from Loyola in 1976, and earned a master’s degree in an accounting from DePaul in 1980. I passed the CPA examination on my first attempt in 1979 and I passed the Certified Internal Auditor examination on my first attempt in 1981.)

https://www.americanthinker.com/articles/2021/04/the_diversity_industry_has_turned_the_clock_backto_1960.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Whether intentional or not, diversity ideology has become another framework to keep us all separated. By valuing and encouraging our differences, we’re reinforcing (strengthening) the things that separate us. We’re raising, not lowering, the walls. After fifty-plus years of attempting to desegregate, now even the civil rights movement is telling us to segregate again. A number of colleges are even having separate graduation ceremonies for different minority groups — and it’s reported as though it were a good thing. What’s next — separate dining rooms? There’s a word for a system of separate treatment — apartheid. I thought that was supposed to be a bad thing. I guess it becomes good when the right people ask for it. So what have we achieved after generations of trying to rid our society of racism? Hyphenated citizenship: African-Americans Chinese-Americans Mexican-Americans Irish-Americans (otherwise known as white-privileged-Americans) Native-Americans (those would be the American-Americans) The very groups that demanded desegregation in the ’60s are now self-segregating. Does anybody think this is good? Before you answer, remember that we just suffered through a summer of watching our cities burn to the ground — and we’re bracing for an encore again this year. All because we no longer trust those outside our assigned group.)

I would focus on stereotypers who have lots of religious, government, political, and/or financial clout in Wheaton’s West District, Wheaton, Milton Township, DuPage County’s 4th District, DuPage County, and Illinois. I would focus on those who negatively stereotype me.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: What Is the Typical Buyer Demographic For this Model? Compared to other midsize sedans, the Chevrolet Malibu has a higher number of female buyers.

The average annual income for most Malibu buyers is $73,000—lower than the average for midsize sedan buyers ($85,976). In addition, the majority of Malibu buyers like buying vehicles from local companies.

POLITICO ILLINOIS
— FROM THE ARTICLE: Former Senate Minority Leader Bill Brady raised $2,000 this past quarter, according to filings with the State Elections Board. He has $816,277 cash on hand for any future political campaigns. With name recognition from two previous gubernatorial runs under his belt, Brady could be a force in a GOP primary — especially if MAGA candidates split the vote. Rep. Adam Kinzinger raised $1.1 million during the first quarter, according to FEC filings. The 16th District Republican has $2.5 million cash on hand.- Shia Kapos (DIERSEN: For March 15, 2022 Republican primaries, Kinzinger will want a) just one candidate to run who hates Trump and b) many candidates to run who do not hate Trump to split that vote.)

That money also enabled me to buy a new 1972 Corvette in October 1971 and to pay tuition and books for graduate business courses at Loyola starting in January 1972. I had graduated debt-free from NIU August 1970 owning a 1969 Dodge Charger SE. The money for tuition, books, and room and board came from what I earned delivering mail for the Park Forest Post Office November 1966-September 1969.)
