— University of Illinois-Chicago to Offer Free Rides to State’s Top Students (DIERSEN: When you were in grade school and high school, were you viewed as being “college material?” When was in grade school and in high school, I was not viewed as being “college material.” Neither of my parents had attended college. My father was the first of his ancestors to earn a high school diploma. My mother never attended high school. I spent my junior and senior years and the summer in between washing dishes for the minimum wage in the basement of the S.S. Kresges in Chicago Heights. I just barely made into the upper 20% of my class. My ACT score was only 24. I was 1-A for draft notwithstanding the fact that my eyesight could not be corrected to 20/20, I had partial red/green color blindness, and I had Osgood-Schlatter disease (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Osgood%E2%80%93Schlatter_disease).)

— JB Pritzker Fields Questions from High School Students – Nick Blumberg (DIERSEN: Political consultants and campaign managers who are Democrats or Democrat plants, Libertarians or Libertarian plants, Greens or Green plants, or RINOs do not want me to ask their candidates any questions. I should write a book about the aforesaid political consultants and campaign managers and what they have done to discourage/stop me from asking their candidates any questions. Since 2005, they have viciously used against me what happened with GOPUSA, Talon News, and White House Correspondent Jeff Gannon. SEE: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talon_News They paint me as being a clone of Jeff Gannon. Ever since I became a GOPUSA reporter in 2000, my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes have hinted/implied/argued/shouted that I ask bad questions, and that because of that, activists, candidates, elected officials, party leaders, major donors, political consultants, etc. should a) stop me from learning about their events and other activities, b) stop me from promoting their events and other activities, c) stop me from attending their events, and d) stop me from reporting on their events and other activities.)

— In Deciding On Judge Candidates, Does Party Affiliation Matter? – MARY HANSEN (DIERSEN: To say that you are a Democrat is to shout that you will do everything that you can to get rid of Republicans, and especially to get rid of Republicans who are Trump supporters, Christian, conservative, patriotic, White, male, older, non-poor, gun owners, German American, draft avoiders, and/or those whose ancestors have been in America for a long time.)

How successful have the “Chicago-area pro-choice activists” been in promoting hatred in your precinct, in your municipality, in your township/ward, in your county, in Illinois, and in America? I should write a book about “pro-choice activists” in my precinct, in Wheaton, in Glen Ellyn, in Milton Township, in DuPage County, and in Illinois.

(FROM THE ARTICLE: The battle over Brett Kavanaugh’s Supreme Court confirmation may have ended, but it’s ignited a group of Chicago-area pro-choice activists. They’re launching WomenAreTheBlueWave.com to turn red legislative seats blue. “We marched. We voted. Now we need to volunteer,” the web site states. The effort was initiated by Illinois Democratic Women and Personal PAC. “Women are going to make the difference in November here and throughout the nation and we want to help harness that energy given that more is at stake now than ever before for women and families,” says Jennifer Lee, co-President of IL Democratic Women. How it works: Women and their allies are invited to sign up at WomenAreTheBlueWave.com. They will then be connected with nearby local campaigns that need volunteer help the most to flip key state districts for candidates with pro-women and pro-choice agendas.)

— Democrats even dump pro-choice women when they don’t toe the party line – Suzanne Venker (DIERSEN: Who has dumped you and why?

(FROM THE ARTICLE: But people close to Pon said he was at odds with the administration over its planned revamp of the personnel agency, which would have diminished his role and authority. As part of a proposed government-wide reorganization announced by Trump in June, most of the OPM’s functions would be farmed out to other departments and its policy role shifted to the White House.)

EDWARDSVILLE INTELLIGENCER
— German heritage deep in Illinois? – Tom Emery (DIERSEN: Government is nasty. Politics is nasty. In government and in politics, your critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes use everything that they can, including your national origin, against you. I should write a book about my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes, including those of German national origin, who have used my German national origin against me.)
https://www.theintelligencer.com/news/article/German-heritage-deep-in-Illinois-Ja-13283656.php
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Saturday is German-American Day, which is observed every Oct. 6. In Illinois, there is plenty of reason to celebrate. German ancestry remains prevalent in Illinois, as it has for a century and a half. The strength of German-Americans helped shape Illinois history through a Civil War — and two world wars against the old country. Of Illinois’ nearly 1.8 million residents in 1860, nearly 325,000 were of foreign birth. Germans were the largest ethnic group with 130,000, nearly 8 percent of the state’s total population. In Chicago, 20 percent of the population was German. Many had arrived following the failed German revolution of 1848. A heavy concentration of Germans also was found in St. Clair County, near Belleville. Others settled in cities such as Quincy, Alton, Peoria, Springfield and Galena. In the northern Illinois community of Peru, Germans made up 1,000 of the total population of 3,500 in 1854. The names of a number of communities across the state honor German heritage, including New Baden, New Minden, Germantown, Darmstadt and Meppen. Many Germans were farmers, while others were laborers, merchants and skilled tradesmen. Some followed the popular crafts of their homeland and worked as butchers, bakers, shoemakers, furniture and wagon builders, and cigar makers. Architecture of traditionally German-American buildings, often in brick, remains visible across the state. German-language newspapers were found across the state, even in the smaller cities. In 1859, future presidential candidate Abraham Lincoln bought the press and type to establish a German-language Republican paper. In Peoria, future Illinois Secretary of State Edward Rummel, a native of Baden, Germany, ran a German paper and print shop that produced materials in both German and English. John Wood, who founded the city of Quincy and served as Illinois governor for 10 months in 1860 and 1861, was born to a German mother. In 1892, Prussia native John Altgeld, best known for his pardon of three of the accused in the infamous Haymarket Riot, won election for one term as Illinois governor. Politically, Germans’ support was crucial for a candidate, and their power was felt in 1856 during the first Illinois Republican state convention. The German influence also was a key factor in the 1860 presidential race and, at the Republican National Convention in Chicago, German resolutions were even incorporated into the national platform. Germans were perceived to be staunch abolitionists, though some scholars dispute that claim. Nearly 6,000 Illinois Germans enlisted during the first six months of the Civil War, comprising almost three entire regiments. One top German commander was Friedrich Hecker, a renowned 1848 revolutionary who was a gentleman farmer near Belleville, in the heart of heavily German settlements. Another German regimental commander from St. Clair County was Gustave Koerner, who served as lieutenant governor of Illinois from 1852 to 1856 and was a pallbearer at Lincoln’s Springfield funeral. By 1910, more than 319,000 German immigrants were in Illinois, and more than 1 million people of German descent — a 10th of the national total — called the state home. With nearly 400,000 first- and second-generation German immigrants, Chicago was the sixth-largest German city on the globe in 1914. The high concentration of Germans caused some protest at the outbreak of World War I, as many of German descent decried their adopted country’s stance against their homeland. Music by German composers such as Mozart and Beethoven was banned in some public places, and some German-Americans were under surveillance by state and federal officials. Other German-Americans were forced to recite loyalty oaths in public spectacles. Within a few years, use of the once-prominent German language faded from schools and churches. As a result, many Germans in Illinois distanced themselves from their heritage. From 1914 to 1920, the number of Illinois residents who identified themselves as German on the Census dropped more than 41 percent, to 112,000. But many Germans remained loyal to the American cause and took active roles in the war effort, both at home and abroad. A quarter-century later, dislike of German residents was a minor issue in World War II, as many chose to focus their disgust on Adolph Hitler, rather than their German neighbors. Today, German heritage in Illinois is celebrated in festivals and carnivals statewide, while some communities in Chicagoland — as well as Moline, Peoria, Gibson City, Mascoutah, Waterloo and Millstadt — feature popular German restaurants. Museums and research centers on German-American history and heritage are found in several large metro areas, including Chicago, and the Quad Cities.)

He had fought type 1 diabetes from age 14, was the first of his ancestors to earn a high school diploma, never attended college, worked in the office of a nasty chemical plant in Chicago Heights, almost always worked second jobs to pay the family’s bills, and did not buy a new car until he was 45 years old, and it was a bottom of the line 2-door Chevy.)

https://www.reuters.com/article/us-usa-election-battleground-special-rep/special-report-the-trump-trap-republicans-duck-president-in-key-house-races-idUSKCN1MF13Y
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Six-term Representative Peter Roskam has a good sense of how voters in Illinois’ 6th Congressional District feel about the president. Despite re-electing the Republican congressman in 2016, they backed Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton over Trump by nearly 7 percentage points. The district typifies the battlegrounds where Republican candidates face anti-Trump headwinds: a fast-growing suburb west of Chicago with a median income near $100,000. Roskam has made no statements of support for Trump on his website or in posts this year to his social media accounts. He acknowledges that associating himself with the president might do more harm than good. Having Trump campaign for him in the district “obviously wouldn’t be helpful,” he said in an interview. Roskam has criticized Trump’s tariffs on imported goods and has decried the administration’s separation of immigrant children from parents. After Trump held a July press conference with Russian President Vladimir Putin and refused to condemn Putin for interference in the 2016 U.S. elections, Roskam called Trump’s performance “an affront to American democracy.” But Roskam notes that he also backs the president on issues important to pro-Trump voters, such as raising military spending and lowering taxes. In an August tweet, Roskam described as “absurd” a statement by his Democratic opponent comparing Trump with al Qaeda founder Osama bin Laden. “This district is discerning,” Roskam said, and voters want a candidate who will represent their interests independent of the president. But Roskam’s reluctance to embrace Trump isn’t enough for some of the anti-Trump Republicans he’s trying to capture. “Peter Roskam has distanced himself from Trump, but he doesn’t stand up to him,” said Bill Wentz, 73, a lifelong Republican and former federal government lawyer. Roskam hasn’t done enough to fight the president on economic policies that Wentz says undermine traditional Republican support for free markets by picking “winners and losers.” He also is uncomfortable with Trump’s failure to fully embrace U.S. intelligence agencies’ finding that Russia interfered in the 2016 U.S. elections. Wentz’s answer: vote for Roskam’s Democratic opponent, Sean Casten. Fostering enthusiasm among disaffected Republicans without alienating Trump loyalists is a tall order, says Christine Matthews, a pollster advising Republican candidates. The president’s core supporters “don’t want to see any distance between you and Trump,” Matthews says, while some college-educated Republicans and independents are “motivated to vote against Trump.” Reuters/Ipsos polling suggests the number of Republicans who are so turned off that they are likely to stay home is relatively small. Among moderate, registered Republicans with college degrees and incomes of $75,000 or more – a group somewhat less supportive of Trump than other Republicans – less than 1 percent say they don’t plan to vote. The bigger threat is the 14 percent in that Republican demographic who, like Wentz in Illinois, say they will back a Democrat or a third-party candidate.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: Around 10,000 baby boomers are turning 65 every day, and the same number will continue doing so for years. Some are on solid financial ground after a lifetime of planning and the fortune of well-timed home purchases and stock investments. Most of the rest are unprepared. Fifty-four percent of households with middle incomes—ranging from around $48,000 to $95,000 a year—don’t have enough saved to maintain their quality of living in retirement, according to the Boston College Center for Retirement Research. Some of those who saved were hit by unforeseen health-care costs. Others took on debt for education. Yet more made investment mistakes or lost their savings in the 2008 financial crisis. Those wildly different circumstances are leading to hard-to-resolve social tensions, which are playing out every day at retirement communities across the country.)

Several delicious food trucks by Chicagoland’s best including Mario Cart’s Race to the Taste. The Beer Cellar from Glen Ellyn will be on hand to sell fresh, local craft beer from Illinois. Family-friendly activities which include a mock voting event for children, with voting booths, ballots and stickers; seasonal activities for children, including: face painting, pumpkin painting and balloon artists and photo booth. Help Lynn Win, the organization supporting DuPage County Board Chairman Candidate, Lynn LaPlante, is hosting a free “Get Out The Vote Concert” on Saturday, October 6 at the DuPage County Fairgrounds at 2015 Manchester Rd, Wheaton, IL from 3PM to 7PM. For the very first time, constituents in DuPage County will have a chance to hear from the largest gathering of Democratic candidates in the state. Ms. LaPlante commented, “This is a watershed event in an historically red DuPage County. We have never had a full Democratic ballot for voters to choose from before. Currently, there is one Democrat out of nineteen County Board Members. A Democrat or a woman has never held the office of Chairman in the history of DuPage County—179 years! It is time to change that. For the first time in its history, voters will be able to hear from and meet a full ballot of inspiring Democratic candidates, from the judges at bottom of the ballot to gubernatorial candidates at the top. Many of the candidates attending the event, including JB Pritzker, are first time candidates like me, following President Obama’s wise words that ‘change only happens when ordinary people get involved.”)

FOX NEWS CHICAGO
— 3rd Kavanaugh accuser has history of legal disputes – AP (DIERSEN: I should write a book about the lawsuits that I have filed and a class action lawsuit that I was an active member of the class in. I would focus on the defendants, the facts that I presented, the charges that I made, the remedies that I sought, the attorneys who represented me, the judges that were assigned, the outcomes of the lawsuits, etc. But most importantly, I would focus on the retaliatory acts that the defendants, their operatives, their dupes, and those who what to curry favor with the defendants have taken against me.)
http://www.fox32chicago.com/news/3rd-kavanaugh-accuser-has-history-of-legal-disputes
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Julie Swetnick, one of the women who has publicly accused Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh of sexual misconduct, has an extensive history of involvement in legal disputes, including a lawsuit in which an ex-employer accused her of falsifying her college and work history on her job application. Legal documents from Maryland, Oregon and Florida provide a partial picture of a woman who stepped into the media glare amid the battle over Kavanaugh’s nomination for the nation’s highest court. Court records reviewed by The Associated Press show Swetnick has been involved in at least six legal cases over the past 25 years. Along with the lawsuit filed by a former employer in November 2000, the cases include a personal injury suit she filed in 1994 against the Washington, D.C., regional transit authority. Her lawyer, Michael Avenatti, told the AP that court cases involving her have no bearing on the credibility of her claims about Kavanaugh. Avenatti said the suit from her ex-employer – it was dismissed a month after it was filed – was “completely bogus, which is why it was dismissed almost immediately.” He told AP that he “fully vetted” Swetnick before helping her take her claims against Kavanaugh public. . .Some details of the legal disputes she’s been involved in aren’t known, because documents in the cases are incomplete or no longer available. Records in the lawsuit filed in late 2000 by her ex-employer, Oregon-based software company Webtrends, don’t indicate why it was dismissed. Avenatti said there was a settlement in the case but no money changed hands. In its civil complaint in a state court in Oregon, the company said Swetnick, a software engineer, was an employee for a few weeks before its human resources department received a report that she had engaged in “unwelcome sexual innuendo and inappropriate conduct” toward two male co-workers at a business lunch. The lawsuit said that Swetnick in turn accused Webtrends of subjecting her to “physically and emotionally threatening and hostile conditions” and that she claimed that she’d been sexually harassed by four co-workers. The co-workers denied the allegations, the suit said. Company officials later determined, the suit said, that Swetnick had provided false information on her employment application. The suit alleged that she had misrepresented the length of time she worked at a previous employer and falsely claimed that she’d earned an undergraduate degree in biology and chemistry from Johns Hopkins University. Her lawyer, Avenatti, said that “whether she has a college degree or not does not matter as to whether she is a sexual assault victim.” Helene Moglen, Swetnick’s aunt, told AP this week that her niece went off to college but quickly moved back home. In an interview with The Washington Post, Swetnick’s father was quoted as saying that “she bootstrapped herself and became a computer expert. She’s a sharp woman.” None of the executives named in the lawsuit still works at Webtrends. Calls and emails to the company’s Portland headquarters seeking comment received no response. The lawyer who represented the company in the lawsuit also did not return messages seeking comment on Thursday and Friday. Swetnick was on the other side of a civil case in 1994, as a plaintiff, when she filed a personal injury lawsuit in Maryland against the Washington Metropolitan Area Transit Authority. She claimed she lost more than $420,000 in earnings after she hurt her nose in a fall on a train in 1992.)
— Lawyer, 99, will retire ‘when they carry me out of here’ – AP (DIERSEN: All my critics/opponents, all their operatives, and all their dupes have always promoted age discrimination a) to get rid of those who were older than they are and/or b) to curry favor with those who promote age discrimination. Democrats run the federal government. Those Democrats promote age discrimination. They get rid of federal employees who are Republican, White, male, and/or non-veteran who they did not to GS-13 (currently $96,403) by age 25, GS-14 (currently $113,920) by age 30, GS-15 (currently $134,000) by age 35, and Senior Executive Service (currently $164,200) by age 40. When the aforesaid employees are eligible to retire, the Democrats pull out all the stops to get those employees to retire. I first became eligible to retire in 1993 when I was 45 years old.)

— Who you gonna call? Inspectors General. – JOHN F. SOPKO
https://thehill.com/opinion/white-house/408953-who-you-gonna-call-inspectors-general
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Traditionally, Congress has turned to committee staff and legislative support agencies for expertise. But much has changed on Capitol Hill over the last 40 years. The number of committee staff in the House has declined from 2,000 to 1,100, and from 1,400 to 950 in the Senate since 1979. Congressional support agencies suffered similar cuts. Government Accountability Office staff dropped from 5,300 to 3,000; Congressional Research Service staff was reduced by 28 percent; the Office of Technology Assessment was completely abolished. As Congress’ internal expertise has declined, the number of think tanks has more than doubled since 1980. Many do great work but, as New York Times and National Public Radio investigations have found, think tanks may be beholden to foreign, corporate or wealthy private donors that may affect their independence and objectivity. Likewise, as the number of congressional staff has decreased, the number of lobbyists has, unsurprisingly, increased. There are now roughly 12,000 congressional staffers and 11,500 registered lobbyists. Some experts estimate there are as many as 100,000 unregistered lobbyists. Lobbyists are not inherently evil but are, by definition, partial to the causes they are paid to promote.)

https://www.nerdwallet.com/blog/finance/how-to-make-a-political-contribution/

(FROM THE ARTICLE: Make sure you can afford to donate Determine which “bucket” of your budget this donation will come from, says Craig Israelsen, executive in residence in the Financial Planning Program at Utah Valley University. Some buckets are off limits, like those for housing payments or utilities. And pulling from retirement savings is “questionable” at best, he adds. (“Our retirement is on us — nobody else is really responsible for that.”) But the money “has to come from somewhere,” Israelsen says. So would you dip into to your clothing or restaurant budget and offset a $100 contribution by, say, not shopping or dining out for a month? Would you pull $300 from your travel funds and, in doing so, commit to driving to Mom’s for Thanksgiving dinner rather than flying? Pausing to reflect on what you’d have to give up for this donation will help you rank its importance among other expenses. Maybe you decide to keep the restaurant dinners and either skip the donation or give less than you’d intended. (More on the value of small donations later.) Or maybe this reflection affirms that, yes, this contribution is important enough to make a sacrifice. (And if this exercise is a real head-scratcher, consider it your cue to build or revisit your budget.))

September 29 Morning Edition

GOPUSA ILLINOIS
— Who will the anti-Kavanaughs focus on destroying in your precinct, in your municipality, in your township/ward, in your county, and in Illinois? Of course, the more demographics that you share with Kavanaugh, the more that they will do to destroy you. How many demographics do you share with Kavanaugh? Both Kavanaugh and I are Trump supporters, Christian, conservative, patriotic, Republican, American, White, male, older, married, non-poor, and non-veteran. I assume that he is a gun owner and that his ancestors have been in America for a long time. However, I am not an attorney, let alone a judge. I was baptized, raised, and confirmed as a Missouri Synod Lutheran. All my ancestors came from what is now Germany. My wife and I are childless. None of my degrees are from Ivy League universities. None of my ancestors attended college. My father was the first of his ancestors to earn a high school diploma. My mother never attended high school. I graduated from a public co-ed high school. My participation in sports was all but ended by a bone disease. I did not display any kind of leadership potential in high school or college. My college majors were management, business, accounting, and finance. I never made any academic honor roles. I was never a member of a fraternity. While Kavanaugh lived in a “dilapidated group house” when he attended law school, I stayed at University Plaza Dormitory and Lincolnshire West Apartments while I attended NIU. While Democrats forced me into early retirement in 1997 when I was 49 years old, Republicans nominated Kavanaugh for the U.S. Supreme Court in 2018 when he was 53 years old. While I am a Republican Precinct Committeeman, Kavanaugh is not. While am a State Editor for www.GOPUSA.com, Kavanaugh is not. While Kavanaugh “serves as a lector at his Washington, D.C. church, the Shrine of the Most Blessed Sacrament. He has helped serve meals to the homeless as part of church programs, and has tutored at the Washington Jesuit Academy, a Catholic private school in the District of Columbia,”  I am not a member of a church, I do not attend church services, and I do not give money to a church. While “Kavanaugh’s reported salary as a federal judge is $220,600 and $27,000 as a lecturer at Harvard Law School, my Civil Service Retirement System pension is only $51,864 and my Social Security is only $2,064. – Dave Diersen

According to GAO (https://www.gao.gov/about/index.html), GAO “is an independent, nonpartisan agency that works for Congress” and it is often called the “congressional watchdog” and it supports congressional oversight by “investigating allegations of illegal and improper activities.”)

CHICAGO CITY WIRE
— Which Illinois colleges receive the most federal student aid? (DIERSEN: I attended UIC 1966-1968 and NIU 1969-1970. Because I did not seek any “student aid,” my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes have always demonized, denigrated, and condemned me, my parents, my grandparents, and the rest of my ancestors as being undeservedly filthy rich.)
https://chicagocitywire.com/stories/511428300-which-illinois-colleges-receive-the-most-federal-student-aid
(FROM THE ARTICLE: University of Illinois at Chicago and City Colleges of Chicago-Harold Washington College reported receiving the most federal financial aid during the 2015-16 academic year among Illinois schools, according to a Higher Education Tribune analysis of federal data.)

ILLINOIS NEWS NETWORK
— Rodney Davis’s bill making federal tax cuts permanent passes House, Senate vote uncertain – Cole Lauterbach and Greg Bishop (DIERSEN: The $10,000 SALT cap discourages marriage in Illinois and it discourages homeownership in Illinois.)
https://www.ilnews.org/news/economy/illinois-congressman-s-bill-making-federal-tax-cuts-permanent-passes/article_54398fe6-c358-11e8-8c8c-9341dee42447.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: If signed into law, it would also make the $10,000 limit on state and local tax deductions permanent. That’s been a thorn in the side of high tax states like Illinois, but Tax Foundation analyst Nicole Kaeding says that tax reform as a whole is keeping more money in Illinois taxpayers’ pockets. “Every individual in every congressional district across the country is seeing a net tax cut this year, even with the SALT cap,” she said. Others with the Tax Foundation have called the SALT deduction poor fiscal policy that subsidizes high-earners in high-tax states.)

NEWS BUSTERS
— Dan Rather: If GOP Confirm Kavanaugh, They’re ‘Extinct’ Like the Dinosaurs – Nicholas Fondacaro (DIERSEN: How many demographics do you share with Kavanaugh? Both Kavanaugh and I are Trump supporters, Christian, conservative, patriotic, Republican, American, White, male, older, married, non-poor, and non-veteran. I assume that he is a gun owner and that his ancestors have been in America for a long time. However, I am not an attorney, let alone a judge. I was baptized, raised, and confirmed as a Missouri Synod Lutheran. All my ancestors came from what is now Germany. My wife and I are childless. None of my degrees are from Ivy League universities. None of my ancestors attended college. My father was the first of his ancestors to earn a high school diploma. My mother never attended high school. I graduated from a public co-ed high school. My participation in sports was all but ended by a bone disease. I did not display any kind of leadership potential in high school or college. My college majors were management, business, accounting, and finance. I never made any academic honor roles. I was never a member of a fraternity. While Kavanaugh lived in a “dilapidated group house” when he attended law school, I stayed at University Plaza Dormitory and Lincolnshire West Apartments while I attended NIU. While Democrats forced me into early retirement in 1997 when I was 49 years old, Republicans nominated Kavanaugh for the U.S. Supreme Court in 2018 when he was 53 years old. While I am a Republican Precinct Committeeman, Kavanaugh is not. While am a State Editor for www.GOPUSA.com, Kavanaugh is not. While Kavanaugh “serves as a lector at his Washington, D.C. church, the Shrine of the Most Blessed Sacrament. He has helped serve meals to the homeless as part of church programs, and has tutored at the Washington Jesuit Academy, a Catholic private school in the District of Columbia,” I am not a member of a church, I do not attend church services, and I do not give money to a church. While “Kavanaugh’s reported salary as a federal judge is $220,600 and $27,000 as a lecturer at Harvard Law School, my Civil Service Retirement System pension is only $51,864 and my Social Security is only $2,064.)
