GAO hired me in 1980 because it could not find a qualified Democrat, minority, female, younger person, or veteran who would take the job.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: “We were able to meet safely in May in an environment that included testing, mask mandates, regular use of hand sanitizer, and more than ample room to practice social distancing,” Rep. Amy Grant, a Wheaton Republican, said in a statement. “No one from the House, Senate or staff contracted COVID-19 during our session in May, so we know staff is capable of putting adequate safety precautions in place. Congress is meeting and there’s no reason why we shouldn’t be.” “I can’t help but wonder if the cancellation has more to do with political unrest within the House Democratic caucus than it has to do with health and safety,” Rep. Steve Reick, a Woodstock Republican, said in a separate statement. “I certainly hope that’s not the case, because it would be a great injustice if Speaker Madigan has placed his political problems ahead of our ability to do the people’s work during a scheduled veto session.”)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: The council instead voting to table the discussions, passing the ordinance to city staff who will work to create a new resolution. The idea came from council member Jenn Carrillo who says instead of celebrating Columbus local business leaders should encourage the community to learn the history of native Americans and grieve at how they were treated. She says this is not meant to deny someone a day of pride but rather begin reparations for actions she says still have affects today. “When we lift up Columbus’s history,” Carrillo said. “We are lifting up a history of colonialism, genocide and white supremacy. That has no place in our world in 2020.” Several community members spoke during public comment against Carrillo’s decision. Many believe renaming the day is seen as a way of reversing history. “Don’t listen to these people guilt you about Columbus,” said Becky Swan to the council. “That was 300 years ago, this is Bloomington, this is today, what are you going to do in 2020.”)

POLITICO ILLINOIS
— Republicans are fuming that the Illinois Supreme Court has replaced Justice Thomas Kilbride, who lost his retention race last week, with a Democratic ally, saying the judicial maneuver is a slap in the face to voters. Justices voted 6-0 to name Appellate Judge Robert Carter to the bench as a placeholder until an election is held in two years. Carter is 74 and says he won’t run. “This is an outrageous decision,” Jon Zahm, who heads the Vote No for Kilbride committee, posted on Facebook. “The voters made clear they did not want politics as usual on the Supreme Court, as they voted an end to the 4-3 Democrat stranglehold on blocking important issues like fair maps, pension reform, lawsuit reform, and term limits.” Zahm said the three Republican justices “should have voted no and left the seat unfilled until the next election.” The hand-wringing over Kilbride’s replacement comes after Zahm and other Republicans waged a fierce battle to remake the highest court. They say Kilbride is beholden to Madigan and they point to an opinion he wrote that removed a referendum on the 2016 ballot that would have taken away Madigan’s power on redistricting. The House speaker donated $550,000 to Kilbride’s campaign to stay on the bench — he won 56 percent of the vote but needed 60 percent to keep his seat. Former 3rd District Appellate Court Judge Kent Slater, a Republican, told the Tribune’s Ray Long that Carter had been Kilbride’s choice to hold an appointed seat on the appellate for several years. “It’s like the Supreme Court’s patronage,” Slater said. – Shia Kapos

— OCTOBER 13, 2020 FLASHBACK: A group of Democratic south suburban mayors and elected officials have filed suit against the Democratic Bloom Township committeeman, Lori Wilcox, because of her plan to hold an in-person, candidate slating caucus in December rather than an open, spring primary for the 2021 municipal and township elections. Given the caucus typically draws 300 to 400 people in the same room, such a meeting would violate the governor’s executive order on large gatherings. The mayors group is concerned about a “super spreader event” if Wilcox’s planned candidate slating caucus moves forward. The emergency motion for a temporary restraining order and preliminary injunction filed by the Del Galdo Law Group will be heard Wednesday in Cook County Circuit Court. Wilcox told Playbook she had not yet seen the lawsuit and declined to comment. – Shia Kapos (DIERSEN: What is the status of this?)

https://www.wsj.com/livecoverage/latest-updates-biden-trump-election-2020/card/32vHNFTTc2xxNr7NITHY
(FROM THE ARTICLE: America’s political divisions are also economic divisions – and they are widening. That’s one message that comes through in the visual story-telling from our graphics team, published today, which shows how Republicans and Democrats are increasingly divided by the education levels, racial diversity and the amount of urban or rural character to their communities. Now, the Brookings Institution adds to the finding of a growing divide between metropolitan and non-metropolitan America. Joe Biden last week won 16% of the nation’s counties, but those counties account for 70% of nation’s economic activity, Brookings analysts report. By contrast, President Trump won 84% of counties, accounting for less than 30% of GDP. Their work shows an increasing divide between a high-output, Democratic-leaning part of the nation and a lower-output, Republican-leaning set of communities. In 2016, Brookings analysts found, Democrat Hillary Clinton won counties accounting for 64% of economic output, compared with Mr. Biden’s 70% share. Mr. Trump in 2016 won counties accounting for 36% of economic output, compared with his share of under 30% this year. That finding adds new data to a trend that the Journal also documented last year, showing that the two parties, in many ways, live in two different economies.)

— IL GOP voters vow to continue fight for President Trump – Will Jones (DIERSEN: What have the following said about Biden’s claiming victory: present and past leaders of a) the Illinois Republican Party, b) your Republican county party organization, and c) your Republican township/ward party organization? According to NBC News, Hillary Clinton said that Biden should not concede the election ‘under any circumstances.’ SEE: https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/2020-election/hillary-clinton-says-biden-should-not-concede-2020-election-under-n1238156 )

(FROM THE ARTICLE: Some local Republicans who cast their ballots for President Trump are also vowing to continue the fight to keep him in the White House, adding that this election isn’t over. “We are in the second inning of this ball game, second. And the fact that people are rushing to come to a conclusion and to name a winner is absolutely ridiculous,” said Laura Pollastrini, 2020 Trump Delegate. They said ballots have yet to be counted and the president should not concede. “We know that he is a fighter. That is one of the reasons why we got elected four years ago,” said Will County GOP Chairman George Pearson. . .Going forward the Republicans voters said that the Republican Party should continue to follow President Trump’s blueprint on how to fight back.)

CHICAGO SUN-TIMES
— Suburban school board member spoke up about racial injustice, then board tried to silence her “I’m not fitting into their box, I guess, because their box leaves out so many people,” said Jill Manrique, school board vice president at Niles Township District 219. – Nader Issa (DIERSEN: Ever-increasingly, under the Democrats and under the RINOs, Republicans are silenced. Ever-increasingly, under the moderates and under the liberals, conservatives are silenced.)
https://chicago.suntimes.com/education/2020/11/8/21554574/niles-schools-racism-school-board-social-injustice
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Jill Manrique feels she made her views on social injustice clear leading up to her election to the Niles Township school board in spring 2019. When another board hopeful, answering a question about racial equity at a candidate forum, said the district needed to be careful about “reverse racism,” Manrique chimed in, saying that concept isn’t real and explained why it’s important to fight for families of color. And since she was elected to the District 219 board that runs Niles West and Niles North high schools in north suburban Skokie, Manrique believes she has lived up to voters’ expectations that she would work toward social justice. A year and a half later, Manrique’s continued expression of those beliefs has been appreciated by some parents but caused uproar among others — so much so that her fellow board members adopted a resolution in a 5-2 vote last month that essentially aimed to silence her. Manrique, the board vice president, had “disparaged community members with viewpoints that are contrary to her own” and had “taken positions on controversial political and social issues” that don’t represent the board, the resolution read. The board accused Manrique of using social media to “disrespectfully respond to community members who have complained about her Twitter comments, at times mocking said community members.” The board “implores” Manrique to stop adversely impacting the district, it said. Board President David Ko said in a statement the resolution was meant to make clear that Manrique does not speak on behalf of the board. He did not answer several questions.)

To push pot on an individual, municipality, township, county, state, or country is to destroy that individual, municipality, township, county, state, or country. What if you had been a pot user? If I had been a pot user, I never would have been able to earn 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. The Post Office would not have hired me in 1966. Firestone Stores would not have hired me in 1970. Oldsmobile would not have offered me a job in 1971. IRS would not have hired me in 1971. GAO would not have hired me in 1980.

DAILY HERALD
— ‘A very stressful situation’: Why election night results were delayed in DuPage, Lake counties – Lauren Rohr (DIERSEN: According to a report, the DuPage County Election Division is processing 24,000 vote-by-mail ballots (VBM) that came in Friday-Monday that the signatures were verified on and those will be posted soon. There are 2,547 provisional ballots and 23,000 VBM ballots that have not been returned yet.)
https://www.dailyherald.com/news/20201104/a-very-stressful-situation-why-election-night-results-were-delayed-in-dupage-lake-counties-
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The DuPage County clerk’s office had posted some early and vote-by-mail counts, but none from its 930 precincts, before a 45-minute glitch snarled the transfer of data from the tabulation system to the website, Chief Deputy County Clerk Adam Johnson said. Tallies weren’t updated again until well after 10 p.m., and vote totals from all precincts weren’t posted until 1 a.m. . .A slew of tight races in DuPage, paired with the national attention placed on vote-counting processes, resulted in a “very stressful situation,” made worse when the data export tool froze, Johnson said. Election judges continued tabulating votes while the technical problems were being addressed, he said. Election authorities anticipated processing a high volume of ballots, Johnson said, and aside from the glitch, everything went according to plan. Additional vote-by-mail ballots were being processed Wednesday, with more expected to roll in over the next two weeks, he said, and the clerk’s office communicated frequently with party leaders on both sides. But DuPage County Republican Party Chairman Jim Zay called the delay “unacceptable,” saying the state’s second-largest county should be better equipped to handle the election night rush. “We’ve had too many elections that we’ve had these issues,” he said. “It has to be fixed.” Johnson acknowledged the county’s systems are slow and outdated, adding to what is already a high-pressure situation for candidates, voters and election officials. “We’re being as transparent as possible,” he said. “We have a constant inflow of ballots … and we just had a lot of data to update over the course of the evening.”)

— Illinois is nearing its contact tracing hiring goal. Is it too late? – HAL DARDICK (DIERSEN: From what I see, those who are the following are negatively stereotyped as being potentially infectious COVID-19 spreaders: older, overweight, and/or have health problems, including diabetes. Therefore, because of that, one would anticipate that a) employers will get rid of their employees who are the aforesaid and b) organizations will get rid of their members who are the aforesaid.)
https://www.chicagotribune.com/coronavirus/ct-coronavirus-illinois-contact-tracing-slow-start-20201102-rrbutujsbfhytb454vvu2yddhu-story.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: As Illinois finally nears its goal of employing 3,800 people to track down and warn the contacts of people infected with COVID-19, experts say that number may no longer be sufficient to help control the virus. That’s because contact tracing — which aims to reduce disease spread by identifying and isolating people who could be infectious — works best when infection rates are relatively low. The state is seeing record numbers of daily confirmed cases.)

— How seniors and their money would fare under a Trump or Biden presidency – Lorie Konish (DIERSEN: Interest rates are far lower than inflation. Democrats and RINOs use age discrimination to get rid of Republicans, and especially to get rid of Republicans who are Trump supporters, conservative, patriotic, White, male, older, heterosexual, married, overweight and/or have other health problems, non-poor, gun owners, Protestant, German American, and/or those whose ancestors have been in America for a long time.)
https://www.cnbc.com/2020/11/01/trump-vs-biden-what-the-election-could-mean-for-seniors-wallets.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Biden’s platform calls for strengthening age discrimination laws, Johnson noted, which could help seniors who want to continue working. A 2009 Supreme Court decision made it so that workers had to prove age was the only factor that led to a job loss, a higher bar to prove age discrimination in the workplace. Democrats in Congress have been trying to address that concern for the past decade, and Biden has said he supports those efforts, Johnson noted.)

My Democrat GAO superiors did everything that they could to turn those who I supervised against me. They stressed to those who I supervised that I was healthy, White, male, draft avoider, Protestant (baptized, raised, and confirmed as a Missouri Synod Lutheran), 100% German American, non-poor, married, Republican, conservative, Wheaton resident, my ancestors have been in America since 1844, I had three job-related master’s degrees, I had six job-related professional certifications, and I had a job-related professional license.)

https://abc7chicago.com/evanston-gathering-turns-violent-overnight/7540524/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: A gathering that included some Northwestern University students turned violent in Evanston overnight Sunday. Some Whole Foods windows were boarded up Sunday morning after a gathering in downtown Evanston became violent, according to police. Police said an unruly crowd began throwing bricks and fireworks at officers. There were windows broken and other property damage in the city’s downtown shortly before midnight Saturday. Several officers were treated for minor injuries. Other police departments from neighboring communities were called in to help restore order. It is unclear what the students were protesting last night. Recently, a student group has been demanding that the Northwestern University cut ties with campus police. University President Morton Schapiro wrote a letter to the community after an earlier incident acknowledging the concerns of injustice, but he also made it clear the school has no intention of dissolving its police department. In a letter last week, Schapiro highlighted a new safety oversight board that will be made up of faculty, staff and students.)

In 1980, when I was 31 years old, I suffered a $20,157/year (21%) pay cut in today’s dollars to transfer from IRS to GAO. My critics opponents shouted that was a) proof that IRS had overpaid me, b) proof that I had changed careers, and c) proof that the experience that I had gained by working for IRS almost 9 years, the last 5 1/2 years of which at the GS-12 Step 1-5 levels, currently $85,084-$96,431/year, was worthless. In fact, much of what I did for IRS as a Revenue Officer was similar to what I would do for GAO as an Analyst, including financial investigation; interviewing; gathering, summarizing, and analyzing data; writing reports; and making recommendations. My Democrat IRS superiors had made very clear that they would never promote me beyond GS-12. They had disallowed my education deductions in 1978, gotten rid of my mentor in 1975, and disallowed my partial day per diem claims in 1974. They had dismissed and belittled the fact that I had passed the CPA examination on my first attempt in 1979 and that I had earned an MBA from Loyola in 1976.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: President Trump offered perhaps his most scathing attacks on members of his own party who have criticized him publicly – referred to as ‘RINOs’, short for Republicans in Name Only – amid a deepening divide between the president and Republican lawmakers as his reelection prospects have become increasingly grim. At a rally in Arizona on Wednesday, Trump claimed he is not only running against former Vice President Joe Biden and the Democratic party, but the “left wing mob,” the “big-tech giants” and “the RINOs.” Just in the last few months, Trump has used the term ‘RINO’ to describe Sens. Pat Toomey (R-Pa.), Mitt Romney (R-Utah) and Ben Sasse (R-Neb.), as well as Massachusetts Gov. Charlie Baker, former House Speaker Paul Ryan, former Michigan Gov. Rick Snyder and former Rep. Tom Ridge. Trump has also used the term to refer to former George W. Bush adviser Karl Rove, the members of The Lincoln Project, a group of anti-Trump Republicans, Republican governors who criticized his handling of coronavirus and any Republican voters who do not approve of his job performance. Trump has increasingly incorporated RINOs into his stump speech in recent months as part of his “drain the swamp” narrative, calling them “sickos” and declaring they are “worse than the Democrats.” He took his denunciations one step further on Wednesday, stating he prefers leftists to RINOs, who he called the “lowest form of human life,” and even speculating that audio difficulties at his rally were caused by one: “It’s probably a RINO operating the thing.” Trump’s increased focus on RINOs comes as sitting Republican officials have shown an increasing willingness to break with him publicly.)

(DIERSEN: My Democrat GAO superiors, supervisors, coworkers, and subordinates were furious when in 1990, I got a preferred corner office in a new building ( https://200westadams.com/ ) a) because I had gotten promoted to GS-13 in 1986 and b) because of the almost 12 years of federal seniority that I had gained by working for IRS 1971-1980 and for the Post Office 1966-1969.)
