https://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/dont-buy-all-the-pr-style-hooey-about-dreamers/2017/09/12/adc246d6-9738-11e7-82e4-f1076f6d6152_story.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Who wants to deport “dreamers”? Not many people, it turns out. Even veteran immigration restrictionists seem willing to legalize this subset of undocumented immigrants if it is part of a package deal. That’s true even though a lot of what’s said about the dreamers is PR-style hooey. For example, it’s often said — indeed, former president Barack Obama just recently said — that the approximately 690,000 dreamers were “brought to this country by their parents.” Well, many were. But that’s not required to qualify as a protected dreamer under the various plans, including Obama’s. You just have to have entered the country illegally before age 16. You could have decided to sneak in against your parents’ wishes. You’re still a dreamer! Likewise, we’re told dreamers are college-bound high school grads or military personnel. That’s an exaggeration. All that’s actually required is that the dreamer enroll in a high school course or an “alternative,” including online courses and English-as-a-second-language classes. Under Obama’s now-suspended program, you didn’t even have to stay enrolled. Compared with the general population, dreamers are not especially highly skilled. A recent survey for several pro-dreamer groups, with participants recruited by those groups, found that while most dreamers are not in school, the vast majority work. But their median hourly wage is only $15.34, meaning that many are competing with hard-pressed lower-skilled Americans. The dreamers you read about have typically been carefully selected for their appeal. They’re valedictorians. They’re first responders. They’re curing diseases. They root for the Yankees. They want to serve in the Army. If dreamers are the poster children for the much larger undocumented population, these are the poster children for the poster children. Still, taking the dreamers as a whole, not just the dreamiest of them, they represent an appealing group of would-be citizens. So why not show compassion and legalize them? Because, as is often the case, the pursuit of pure compassion comes with harmful side effects. First, it would create perverse incentives. Can you imagine a stronger incentive for illegal immigration than the idea that if you sneak into the country your kids will get to be U.S. citizens? Sure, the protections don’t currently apply to recent entrants — under Obama’s plan, you had to have come before 2007. But those dates can be changed — Obama himself tried to do it once. And the rationale for rewarding those who arrive when young — that they’re here through “no fault of their own” and know only America, etc. — can apply on into the future, with no apparent stopping point. What about the poor kids who came in 2008? 2018? There’s a reason no country has a rule that if you sneak in as a minor, you’re a citizen. We’d be inviting the world. Second, it would have knock-on effects. Under “chain migration” rules established in 1965 — ironically as a sop to conservatives, who foolishly thought that they’d boost European inflows — new citizens can bring in their siblings and adult children, who can bring in their siblings and in-laws, until whole villages have moved to the United States. That means today’s 690,000 dreamers would quickly become millions of newcomers, who may well be low-skilled and who would almost certainly include the parents who brought them — the ones who, in theory, are at fault. There are obvious, sensible ways to control these side effects. Pair any dreamer amnesty with a major upgrade to our system to prevent a new undocumented wave — such as a mandatory extension of E-Verify, the system that lets employers check on the legal status of hires. Curtail the right to bring in distant relatives. Sen. Tom Cotton (R-Ark.) has proposed such a compromise — and it would be easy to compromise on his compromise, say by cutting back on chain migration only by the number of people that the new Dream Act adds to the citizenry. The president could declare a one-time act of mercy for those who came here during the pre-Trump Era of Laxity, but make clear the game was changed for future entrants. Why wouldn’t Democrats jump at such a deal? For years they’ve been touting “comprehensive immigration reform,” a mix of amnesty with stepped-up enforcement to prevent another undocumented surge. But the Dream Act is uncomprehensive. It’s all amnesty, no prevention — let alone any compensating reduction in legal inflows. It’s hard to avoid the thought that Democrats (and Republicans who support the Dream Act) aren’t really interested in preventing illegal inflows. They’re not inclined to take Cotton up on his deal because they don’t think they have to. If they win, we’ll get the compassion without dealing with its consequences. That would be especially unfortunate given the signs that Trump’s immigration crackdown, simply stepping up enforcement of current laws, is already helping to tighten the low end of the labor market and boost wages of low-skilled workers. News organizations are featuring stories from employers who aren’t getting their usual supply of undocumented workers and are forced to take radical measures — such as raising wages. Proof of this connection, in the public mind, may be what terrifies the pro-immigration lobby the most.)

Their top priority is to hire, to retain, and to promote Democrats, and especially Democrats who are minority, female, and/or younger. Of course, they are anti-Trump, and their giving more money to ACLU, SPLC, NRDC, Planned Parenthood, Sierra Club, and National Park Foundation proves it.)
https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/powerpost/wp/2017/09/11/feds-charitable-giving-reflects-worry-reciting-oath-on-video-reflects-pride/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Oath for Federal Employees: “I, [name], do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same; that I take this obligation freely, without any mental reservation or purpose of evasion; and that I will well and faithfully discharge the duties of the office on which I am about to enter. So help me God.” . . . An analysis of contributions to the Combined Federal Campaign (CFC), an umbrella charitable effort for federal employees, demonstrates “federal donors clearly reacted to the election of Trump in 2016, providing several charities with a sizable Anti-Trump bounce in their pledge results,” Marshall Strauss, chief executive of the Workplace Giving Alliance, said in an email Friday to his board of directors. The Alliance is a coalition of CFC organizations and reports on federal employee giving. “For example,” Strauss continued, “the American Civil Liberties Union [Foundation] was up almost 400 percent in comparison with its 2015 CFC results, the Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC) saw its pledge number jump by 345 percent, and the Natural Resources Defense Council (NRDC) saw its pledge total jump 180 percent.” These organizations have taken principled stands against Trump’s harmful policies: ACLU says Trump wants to “Enshrine a Business Right to Discriminate Into the Constitution.” SPLC President Richard Cohen wrote about “the malignant bigotry at the heart of President Trump’s agenda.” NRDC tracks “Trumps attacks on the environment.” Planned Parenthood, the Sierra Club and the National Park Foundation also received significantly more in donations, according to the report.)

http://www.news-gazette.com/news/local/2017-09-10/tom-kacich-trump-supporter-joins-run-against-rauner.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: And Ray Tranchant of Catlin is the lieutenant governor candidate on what may be an even longer shot: Chicagoan William Kelly’s intraparty challenge to Gov. Bruce Rauner. Tranchant is a Navy veteran and a supporter of President Trump who said he has never run for office before. The two big reasons he wants to serve with Kelly, he said, are fiscal responsibility and illegal immigration. Tranchant, whose 16-year-old daughter Tessa was killed by an illegal immigrant from Mexico in an auto accident 10 years ago in Virginia Beach, Va., said he is particularly upset by Rauner’s decision last month to sign the Illinois TRUST Act, which restricts local law enforcement from collaborating with federal immigration agents to detain anyone unless the federal officials have a warrant. Tranchant called the legislation “a sanctuary bill” that would protect hundreds of thousands of illegal immigrants in the Chicago area who now, he predicted, will move downstate. “We believe that they’re going to get out of there (Chicago), mainly come here, look for jobs and get aid and live in a better and safer environment,” said Tranchant, who said he “is in his early 60s” and had retained his Illinois residency even while in the military. “That’s going to cost our schools and services a lot of money. We don’t think it’s good.” Kelly, a conservative radio host in the Chicago area, called Rauner “the new Judas of the Republican Party” for signing the immigration legislation. “Today, unlike Bruce Rauner, we stand proudly with President Trump and the federal government,” Kelly said last week. “I will recall Rauner by defeating him in the 2018 GOP primary and repeal Illinois’ sanctuary state status by executive order. As governor, my first act will be to recognize the federal government’s exclusive power to make and enforce immigration law.” Tranchant said he also was upset with Rauner for allowing the state to operate without a budget for more than two years. “That hurts the state of Illinois as well,” said Tranchant. “Many of my friends who are Democrats voted for him because they wanted a change and they didn’t want the same old incestuous relationship that (former Gov.) Pat Quinn had with (House Speaker Michael) Madigan. We figured this guy was just like Trump, would make a difference, and so far, all he’s done is isolated himself and refused to do things.” In order to get on the ballot, Kelly, Tranchant and their allies will have to collect 5,000 to 10,000 signatures between now and early December. “We’ll get the 5,000 signatures,” Tranchant deadpanned. “I’ve got that many friends on Facebook.”)

DETROIT FREE PRESS
— Not on the agenda at Michigan Republican Party Mackinac conference: President Donald Trump – Paul Egan  (DIERSEN: Michigan Republican Party Chairman Ron Weiser says “As a party, we support the president — we support his policies.” But what if Trump goes against the Republican Party platform?  Republicans should always support the platform. If you do not like certain planks in the platform, you should try to get them changed. Of course, those who reject the traditional family, right to life, immigration, illegal drugs, equal opportunity (no race or gender based preference giving), and other planks in the Republican Party platform work against me. Of course, those who promote dependency on government and charity, LGBTQ activity, abortion, mass/illegal immigration, booze, gambling, pot, and other vices, patronage, political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, age discrimination, abolition of the First and Second Amendments, and even worse things work against me.  They say that “the platform is the problem.”)
http://www.freep.com/story/news/local/michigan/2017/09/09/michigan-republican-party-mackinac-conference-president-donald-trump/645799001/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: President Donald Trump has been using Twitter to attack Republican legislative leaders over their failure to repeal and replace the Affordable Care Act. Last week, Trump blindsided members of his own party when he cut a controversial deal with the Democrats to raise the debt ceiling and fund hurricane relief. Distractions resulting from an ongoing and wide-ranging investigation by special counsel and former FBI director Robert Mueller threaten to further derail the Republican agenda, including the promise of corporate and personal income tax cuts. Controversies surrounding the Republican president are captivating the country — and the world — and have some Republicans worried about how they will affect party fortunes in congressional midterms and other elections in 2018. But don’t look for those topics to be on the agenda when about 2,000 Republicans from Michigan and across the nation gather on Mackinac Island Sept. 22-24 for the Mackinac Republican Leadership Conference — a major policy confab held every two years. Party leaders say the conference will be all about unity, and the focus will be on what’s happening in Michigan — not Washington, D.C. “As a party, we support the president — we support his policies,” Michigan Republican Party Chairman Ron Weiser said in an interview. “I don’t think there’s going to be any kind of controversy.” Tax reform, repeal and replace of Obamacare, immigration and infrastructure “are important and worthy of conversations,” said state party spokeswoman Sarah Anderson. But “unfortunately, we have a limited time for the conference, so there wasn’t a space for panels on those issues.” In addition to Gov. Rick Snyder, other state Republican leaders and members of Congress, speakers will include Trump loyalists such as Missouri Gov. Eric Greitens and U.S. Education Secretary and west Michigan businesswoman Betsy DeVos. Panel sessions will feature topics such as the influence of women in the party, successful Michigan business leaders, the news media, and “Michigan leading the nation” in terms of domestic policies and job creation. Though he comes from a neighboring state and is maintaining a high profile after his unsuccessful bid for the Republican presidential nomination in 2016, don’t look for Ohio Gov. John Kasich, a frequent Trump critic, to be taking a ferry across the Straits of Mackinac. The emphasis on unity is reflected in the conference theme, “Together We Rise.” The agenda, which is still being finalized, also includes former Michigan Gov. John Engler and former Utah congressman Jason Chaffetz, who chaired the House oversight committee and is now a Fox News contributor. Organizers had hoped U.S. Vice President Mike Pence would be among the speakers, but he is unable to attend due to security complications, Weiser said.)

During the 1840s and 1850s, all my ancestors immigrated to northeast Illinois from what is now Germany.  Of course, needless-to-say, my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes have always used that against me. In my defense, I stress that my grandfather on my father’s side fought the Germans during WWI, that my uncles on my mother’s side fought the Germans during WWII, and that my father would have fought the Germans during WWII if he had not been 4-F.  Further, according to http://dna.ancestry.com, my ancestry is 33% Europe West, 28% Scandinavia, 24% Great Britain, 11% Ireland, 2% Europe East, 1% Finland/Northwest Russia, and 1% Italy/Greece.)

Were it not for federal civil service protections, a) the Post Office would NOT have hired me in 1966 or let me work there for almost 3 years, b) IRS would NOT have hired me in 1971 or let me work there for almost 9 years, c) IRS would NOT have promoted me in 1972, 1973, or 1974, d) GAO would NOT have hired me in 1980 or let me work there for almost 18 years, and e) GAO would NOT have promoted me in 1986.)

http://chicago.suntimes.com/columnists/laura-washington-what-about-sanctuary-for-us/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: “Clearly black people have been written off by the Democratic Party,” Scott writes. “Institutional racism has led to an underclass of black people who have been locked out of the ‘dream’ this DACA group is given support and resources to pursue. The narrative now is we can’t do without these illegal immigrants!” For decades, black folks have sought sanctuary from the ceaseless gun violence ravaging our neighborhoods. We desperately crave refuge from the long march of black men who have been murdered and maimed by police brutality and misconduct, as our political “leaders” looked the other way. Black folks vainly seek salvation from economically crippled communities where poverty is pervasive and economic options are slim to none. Black people don’t begrudge help for their immigrant brothers and sisters. People of color are in this together, striving and sweating under the vicious heel of bigotry. But black voters, the Democratic Party’s most loyal constituency, wonder: What about sanctuary for us?)

— Rep. Mitchell, GOP group say no ‘chosen candidate’ for 101st House – RYAN VOYLES  (DIERSEN: Who does the choosing of candidates and who are the chosen candidates in your municipality, in your township/ward, in your county, and in Illinois?  Many would argue, that because of his total domination of the Illinois Republican Party (IRP), that Bruce Rauner does all the choosing of Republican candidates in Illinois. Of course, that encourages candidates to pander to Rauner, to serve as operatives for Rauner, and to serve as dupes for Rauner. Of course, that encourages candidates to dump those planks in the IRP platform that Rauner has dumped.  Of course, that encourages everyone to dump those individuals, organizations, companies, and governments that Rauner has dumped. Of course, that hastens the collapse of the IRP.  According to my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dues, Rauner has dumped me.  They stress that Rauner does not read GOPUSA ILLINOIS emails.  They hint/imply/argue/shout that no one who Rauner listens to reads GOPUSA ILLINOIS emails.)

I should write a book about activists, candidates, elected officials, party leaders, major donors, political consultants, etc. in Wheaton, in Glen Ellyn, in Milton Township, in DuPage County, and in Illinois who target me because I do not “fall in line” with them. They a) reject planks in the Republican Party platform and/or the Illinois Republican Party platform and work against those like me who support those planks, b) reject the Milton Township Republican Central Committee resolution against video gambling and work against those like me who support that resolution, c) focus on destroying those like me who they cannot manipulate/dominate, d) were defendants in lawsuits that I have filed, and/or e) are operatives or dupes for the aforesaid.)
https://theillinoischronicle.com/chronicle-latest-moderate-republican-targeted-by-rauner/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Rauner, who has almost exclusively personally funded the Illinois Republican Party, holds considerable leverage over lawmakers who defy him, which has until now led lawmakers to fall in line. He has another $70 million in his personal campaign fund, much of which has come from the Governor himself, that he could also use to target lawmakers who crossed him. In 2016, Rauner invested heavily in the race seeking to oust McCann, but ultimately McCann prevailed. The race was the most expensive primary race in Illinois history, costing $4.2 million. “I’m being attacked because I did what was right for this district,” McCann said at the time.)

I was available to work Fridays, Saturdays, Sundays, Mondays, holidays, and every day that NIU was not in session. In 1971, Oldsmobile withdrew a job offer that I had accepted saying that it had just agreed to stop hiring Whites to settle an EEOC complaint. After 1974, my Democrat IRS superiors made it clear that they would not promote me any more. In 1980, my Democrat GAO superiors forced me to take an $18,847 pay cut in today’s dollars to transfer from IRS to GAO. My Democrat GAO superiors kept me off audits of IRS for all but 3 of the almost 18 years that I worked for GAO. After 1986, my Democrat GAO superiors made it clear that they would not promote any more. My Democrat GAO superiors always ranked me in the bottom half of my coworkers for pay-for-performance purposes. In 1997, my Democrat GAO superiors forced me to take their early retirement “offer.”)

— Democrats and ‘Dogma’  Are you now or have you ever been an ‘orthodox Catholic’? – Editorial (DIERSEN: Democrats are extremely anti-Catholic, but Democrats are also extremely anti-Protestant. I should write a book about those in Wheaton, in Glen Ellyn, in Milton Township, in DuPage County, and in Illinois who encourage everyone to be anti-Protestant, and especially to be anti-Missouri Synod Lutheran.)

— Freed From Slavery, Richard Peterson Began an American Family  He was brought to the U.S. against his will in 1817. His descendants gather to celebrate his legacy. – Bob Greene  (DIERSEN: When did your ancestors first come to America. Needless-to-say, you are in big trouble if they came while slavery was legal in America. My critics/opponents stress that my ancestors have been in America since 1844. In my defense, since 1844, all my ancestors have always lived in northeast Illinois – Chicago, Crete, and Grant Park.)

— Americans Losing Faith in College Degrees, Poll Finds  Men, young adults and rural residents increasingly say college isn’t worth the cost – Josh Mitchell and  Douglas Belkin  (DIERSEN: Do you have a college degree?  If I had not been taking undergraduate business courses, the Democrats who ran the Post Office might not have offered me a job in 1966 and they might have gotten rid of me sooner than they did. If I had not had a 1970 bachelor’s degree in management from NIU, a) Firestone Stores would not have offered me a job in 1970 and b) Oldsmobile and the Democrats who ran IRS would not have offered me jobs in 1971. If I had not been taking graduate business courses, the Democrats who ran IRS might not have promoted me 1972, 1973, and 1974. If I had not had a 1976 MBA from Loyola and if I had not been taking graduate accounting courses at DePaul, the Democrats who ran GAO would not have offered me a job in 1980 and would not have promoted me in 1986.  If I had not been taking graduate courses in financial markets and trading at IIT, my Democrat who ran GAO might have forced me to take their early retirement “offer” in 1993 instead of 1997.)

FORBES
— 3 Simple Steps To Keep Your Employees Talking To You Instead Of The Press – Claudia Chan  (DIERSEN: My Democrat IRS superiors were furious that I was the subject of a 4-page article in Money Magazine’s February 1978 issue because the article disclosed that IRS had hired in 1971 and had promoted in 1972, 1973, and 1974 someone who was Republican, non-veteran, White, and male INSTEAD OF someone who was Democrat, veteran, minority, or female.)

TIME
— President Trump Said DACA Recipients ‘Have Nothing to Worry About.’ That’s Not Exactly True – Maya Rhodan  (DIERSEN: What have you had to worry about? Because I have always been a Republican, while I worked for the federal government 1966-1969 and 1971-1997, I always had to worry about what my Democrat superiors would do next to get rid of me. To counter their efforts to get rid of me, I earned a) a job-related bachelor’s degree in 1970 when I was 21 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.)

— National Treasury Employees Union launches campaign to remind voters federal employees work for them, not politicians – David Thornton  (DIERSEN: I was a NTEU member 1971-1980 while I worked for IRS. While I worked for the federal government for almost 30 years, my superiors were always under pressure from Democrat politicians a) to hire, to retain, and to promote Democrats, and especially Democrats who were minority, female, and/or younger and b) to make way for them by getting rid of their employees who were Republican, White, male, older, and/or non-veteran.)

— Escaping retirement change: Can you beat the clock? – Mike Causey  (DIERSEN: My Civil Service Retirement System pension is based on my highest three-year average salary. For me, that was 1995, 1996, and 1997.  My salary would have been much higher during those years if my Democrat GAO superiors had not stopped from being promoted beyond GS-13 and had not always ranked me in the bottom half of my coworkers for pay-for-performance purposes.)
https://federalnewsradio.com/mike-causey-federal-report/2017/09/escaping-retirement-change-can-you-beat-the-clock/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Of all the threats that have faced the federal retirement program over many years the one that seems to frighten feds the most is the proposal to change the formula used to compute their future annuities. Under the current system, pensions are based on the employee’s length of service (time in government) and highest three-year average salary. Once again, the administration is talking (key word talking) about changing that formula to use the employee’s highest five-year average salary.)

September 5 Evening Edition

GOPUSA ILLINOIS
— Lt. Governor Sanguinetti’s statement on DACA (DIERSEN: Affirmative Action (AA), Diversity, and Inclusion are personal to me.  Democrats use AA, Diversity, and Inclusion to get rid of Republicans, and especially Republicans like me who are White, male, older, and/or non-veteran.  Ever-increasingly, Democrats use Dreamers and their supporters to demonize, to denigrate, and to condemn Trump and his supporters as being White supremacists, Nazis, KKK members, haters, racists, sexists, bigots, and even worse things. From what I see, all Dreamers are younger and virtually all of them are minority and/or female. Political parties exist to help elect candidates who can and will defend and advance their platform.  Those who reject the immigration plank in the Illinois Republican Party (IRP) platform could have tried to change that plank last year at the IRP State Convention, but they did not even try. Those who agree with Sanguinetti on providing a “path to citizenship” for illegals have always hinted/implied/argued/shouted that I am a White supremacist, a Nazi, a KKK member, a hater, a racist, a sexist, a bigot, and even worse things. I should write a book about them. They stress that my ancestors have been in America since 1844, that they all immigrated from what is now Germany, that I was baptized, raised, and confirmed as a Missouri Synod Lutheran, that I am White, that I am male, that I am conservative, that I am Republican, that since Trump won the Republican presidential primary last year, I have been a Trump supporter, and even worse things. They have always hinted/implied/argued/shouted that my parents, my grandparents, my great grandparents, and all the rest of my ancestors discriminated against minorities and against women and that I have directly benefited from that big time. They have always hinted/implied/argued/shouted that because of the aforesaid, I should pay the price of AA, Diversity, and Inclusion. Because of the aforesaid, were it not for federal civil service protections, a) the Post Office would NOT have hired me in 1966 or let me work there for almost 3 years, b) IRS would NOT have hired me in 1971 or let me work there for almost 9 years, c) IRS would NOT have promoted me in 1972, 1973, or 1974, d) GAO would NOT have hired me in 1980 or let me work there for almost 18 years, and e) GAO would NOT have promoted me in 1986.)
https://gopillinois.com
(THE STATEMENT: “Immigration is personal to me.  My mother was a refugee from Cuba and my father emigrated legally from Ecuador.  While my parents came to this country under very different circumstances, they had the common goal of achieving the American dream. “Republicans and Democrats across the country agree that our current immigration system is broken.  The current system divides our communities, incentivizes illegal entry, strains law enforcement, and stymies our economy with uncertainty. Today’s DACA repeal sets a 6-month clock for reform.  Congress should take this opportunity to fix our broken immigration system, and in turn address DACA, border security, and a path to citizenship.”)

BELLEVILLE NEWS DEMOCRAT
— Mayor Rahm Emanuel: Chicago students welcome as Trump ending DACA program
http://www.bnd.com/news/state/illinois/article171297807.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Mayor Rahm Emanuel says Chicago students “have nothing to worry about” as President Donald Trump’s administration said it will wind down a program protecting young immigrants from deportation. Emanuel spoke as Chicago Public Schools marked the first day of classes Tuesday. The mayor told students at Solorio Academy High School they “are welcome in the city of Chicago.” The Chicago Sun-Times reports that school officials say about a third of the school’s students are undocumented citizens. Emanuel said Chicago schools “will be a Trump-free zone.” Attorney General Jeff Sessions on Tuesday said the program known as DACA is an “unconstitutional exercise of authority by the executive branch.” Chicago is suing the Trump administration over its policy of withholding public safety grants from so-called sanctuary cities unless they agree to tougher immigration enforcement.)

ILLINOIS CPA SOCIETY
— 6 Certifications That’ll Build Your Cred  Today’s accounting and finance professionals have a lot to gain by adding the right credentials to the ends of their names. – Selena Chavis  (DIERSEN: I have three of these six – MBA (1976), CPA (1979), and Certified Internal Auditor (1981). In addition I have a master’s degree in accounting (1980), CPA license (1981), Certified Fraud Examiner (1990), Certified Government Financial Manager (1994), Certified Financial Services Auditor (1996), Forensic Accountant (1997), and master’s degree in financial markets and trading (1997).)
https://www.icpas.org/information/copy-desk/insight/article/digital-exclusive/6-certifications-that-ll-build-your-cred
(FROM THE ARTICLE: 1. Certified Public Accountant (CPA) It generally goes without saying, but CPAs are highly sought for just about every accounting, auditing, business, consulting, finance, tax, and, well, you get the point—earning the CPA is a major professional differentiator that can land you just about anywhere, from your local accounting firm to the head of a Fortune 500 company. Earning a CPA is not for the faint of heart, however. Because this credential provides a multitude of opportunities, and has earned recognition for positioning holders as the nation’s most trusted business advisors, obtaining it isn’t exactly easy. On average, it takes CPA exam candidates six-and-a-half attempts to pass all four parts of the exam. What’s more, sitting for the exam can cost anywhere from $1,000 to $5,000 depending on the investment made in the exam and review courses and preparation materials. Plus, once you earn your CPA credential, you’ll also have to maintain it with ongoing accredited professional education. . .4. Certified Internal Auditor (CIA) The CIA is the choice if you’re looking to differentiate yourself as an auditor with expertise in risk, control, and information technology. Granted by the Institute of Internal Auditors, the CIA comes with a price tag of $1,150 and requires candidates to have a bachelor’s degree and two years of auditing experience prior to testing. Like some of the other credentials mentioned, the CIA has three levels of exams, total six-and-a-half hours of testing, and takes around a year or more for most to complete. Don’t let that deter you, however, because the CIA is becoming an essential credential for auditors eyeing the coveted chief audit executive position, along with positive upward career advancement along the way. . .6. Master of Business Administration (MBA) The broad expertise that accompanies earning an MBA can open many doors for accounting and finance professionals. Unfortunately, outside of your undergrad degree, it’s the most costly acronym to add to the end of your name. US News & World Report notes the average cost of a two-year MBA program at one of the top 10 business schools in the U.S. topped out over $125,000 in 2016. Costs clearly vary based on the university attended, program type (full-time, part-time, or online), scholarships and grants potentially received, and any employer assistance aimed at helping you earn this esteemed degree (many Fortune 100 companies offer tuition assistance). But by all measures, this is an undertaking that takes serious consideration for most. Much like the CPA, there’s no easy path to earning an MBA, but it’s also a means to entry to greater career choices and higher-level—and higher-earning—executive positions. Credentials don’t come easy, and they certainly don’t come for free, but that doesn’t mean they’re unattainable. In fact, Robert Half International says 72 percent of CFOs will cover all or some of the costs of their professional employees’ certifications. Many also would cover the continuing professional education required to maintain certification. The reality is that keeping your skills current is vital to staying competitive and relevant in today’s business world. Regardless of which credentials you choose to collect, each one says something important about who you are as an accounting and finance professional.)

— What did you do 17 years ago today? I attended the Bush/Cheney rally before the start of Naperville’s Labor Day parade and walked with Bush and Cheney in the parade.  I was one of those who rode a Bush/Cheney bus from the end of the parade to attend the Cheney rally at the Taste of Polonia festival. Earlier that year, I asked Governor George Ryan and Senate President Pate Philip to invite Bush to walk in Wheaton’s 2000 Independence Day Parade. – Dave Diersen

I did. Earlier that year, I asked Governor George Ryan and Senate President Pate Philip to invite Bush to walk in Wheaton’s 2000 Independence Day Parade.)
http://www.chicagotribune.com/suburbs/naperville-sun/ct-nvs-president-naperville-link-st-0219-20170217-story.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: As a presidential candidate, then-Texas Gov. George W. Bush marched in the Last Fling’s Labor Day Parade in 2000 after holding a rally at Naperville North High School. It was on the rally stage before the speech when the candidate, who was oblivious the microphones were live, pointed out a veteran political reporter to his running mate Dick Cheney and said, “There’s Adam Clymer, major-league a—— from The New York Times.”)

How have federal programs harmed your career? 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. Democrats use Affirmative Action (AA), Diversity, and Inclusion to not hire and to get rid of their employees who are Republican, and especially those who are White, male, older, and/or non-veteran.  To help them meet their AA, Diversity, and Inclusion quotas, goals, and targets, my Democrat GAO superiors forced me to retire in 1997 when I was 49 years old, always ranked me in the bottom half of my coworkers for pay-for-performance purposes, did not promote me beyond GS-13, 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 an $18,847 pay cut in today’s dollars to transfer from IRS to GAO in 1980.  My Democrat IRS superiors did not promote me beyond GS-12, disallowed my education deductions in 1978, and disallowed my partial day per diem claims in 1974. My Democrat Post Office superiors forced me resign in 1969 and disallowed my sick leave requests in 1969 and 1968.)

CHICAGO TRIBUNE
— With DACA decision soon, immigration activists march to keep program intact – Nereida Moreno  (DIERSEN: Those who promote DACA say “Si se puede” (Spanish for “Yes, we can”) and Trump “makes a mockery” of the nation and “No matter who is in the White House, no matter who is in Congress, you were here before them and you will be here after them” and “Chicago is committed to being a welcoming city to everyone who wants to be here” and “This is our country. This is our home. A lot of us don’t even know what our native countries look like” and “We are asking everyone to please come together and help us to fight to stay in this country” and “At the end of the day, Dreamers are Americans too” and “Now we wait another day to see if the Trump administration will make 800,000 Dreamers outlaws with the stroke of a pen.”)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: More than 200 people marched 4 miles Sunday from a park in the Pilsen neighborhood toward U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement headquarters in the South Loop to support the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program now under review by the Trump administration. Immigration advocates and supporters from several groups, including Black Lives Matter Chicago and Refuse Fascism, gathered at Harrison Park and chanted “Si se puede” (Spanish for “Yes, we can”) as they marched up 18th Street toward the Loop, calling on President Donald Trump to save the program created by the Obama administration that shields young immigrants from deportation and provides work permits for employment. Ald. Raymond Lopez, 15th, addressed the crowd and called on the country to be united, “regardless of color and origin.” He said Trump “makes a mockery” of the nation. “No matter who is in the White House, no matter who is in Congress, you were here before them and you will be here after them,” Lopez said. “Chicago is committed to being a welcoming city to everyone who wants to be here.” Karen Ramirez, 26, a Pilsen resident and DACA recipient, said she and fellow program recipients are productive members of society who are fighting for the chance to stay in America because they consider it home. “This is our country. This is our home. A lot of us don’t even know what our native countries look like,” Ramirez said. “We are asking everyone to please come together and help us to fight to stay in this country,” she said. “At the end of the day, Dreamers are Americans too.” Cecilia Garcia, a local immigration activist, said the program recipients are marching to mobilize their allies and to let the president know that there will be resistance if he moves to cancel the program. “Now we wait another day to see if the Trump administration will make 800,000 Dreamers outlaws with the stroke of a pen,” she said. The rally was organized by Familia Latina Unida. Former President Barack Obama launched the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program in 2012 for people who have been in the U.S. since 2007, were younger than 16 at the time of their arrival and were younger than 31 as of 2012. Those enrolled can legally drive and work, but they must reapply every two years. They are considered a low priority for immigration enforcement, though they are not protected from deportation. The Trump administration has until Tuesday to eliminate the program or face legal action from a group of Republican state lawmakers. Illinois has the nation’s fourth-largest population of DACA recipients — the highest share in the Midwest. At least 42,376 Illinoisans have been approved since March 31, according to U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services. Current students, high school or GED course graduates and veterans are eligible for the program. They must be at least 15 to apply, unless they’re in removal proceedings or have a final removal or voluntary departure order. Immigrants who have committed a serious crime, have more than two misdemeanor convictions or are deemed to be a threat to national security are automatically disqualified. Nationally, about 68 percent of eligible immigrants have applied for the program since 2012, according to the Migration Policy Institute. More than 886,000 people have applied and 787,580 have been approved. The White House said a decision will be announced Tuesday.)

NEW YORKER
— Donald Trump Holds Dreamers’ Future in His Hands – Jonathan Blitzer  (DIERSEN: Who held your future in their hands?  Democrats run the federal government.  Those Democrats held my future in their hands 1966-1969 and 1971-1997. Because I have always been a Republican, they wasted my career and got rid of me. My Democrat Post Office superiors forced me resign in 1969 and disallowed my sick leave requests in 1969 and 1968. My Democrat IRS superiors did not promote me beyond GS-12, disallowed my education deductions in 1978, and disallowed my partial day per diem claims in 1974. My Democrat GAO superiors forced me to retire in 1997 when I was 49 years old, always ranked me in the bottom half of my coworkers for pay-for-performance purposes, did not promote me beyond GS-13, 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 an $18,847 pay cut in today’s dollars to transfer from IRS to GAO in 1980. They would not taken the aforesaid adverse actions against me if I had been a Democrat, a minority, a female, or a veteran. Because I have always been a Republican, were it not for federal civil service protections, a) the Post Office would NOT have hired me in 1966 or let me work there for almost 3 years, b) IRS would NOT have hired me in 1971 or let me work there for almost 9 years, c) IRS would NOT have promoted me in 1972, 1973, or 1974, d) GAO would NOT have hired me in 1980 or let me work there for almost 18 years, and e) GAO would NOT have promoted me in 1986.)
