During that time, at least once, I delivered mail to every home and every business in Park Forest and University Park.

CHICAGO SUN-TIMES
— Democrats acknowledge that “Many more Chicago-area homes have a higher risk of flooding than people realize.” I should write a book about the many thousands of hours and the many thousands of dollars since 1984 that I have had to spend to prevent storm water damage to my Wheaton home. It was built in a “watershed area” and a former septic field. Wheaton has never forgiven me for suing it for approving a grossly inadequate storm water drainage plan for the development that my home was built in. In fact, Wheaton has taken many big adverse actions against me because I sued it. I should have gotten a permanent restraining order against Wheaton.

WEDNESDAY JOURNAL
— GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters fill a tremendous void in Illinois. They bring attention to news and commentary that promote the a) individual responsibility, b) traditional marriage and family, c) right to life, d) immigration, e) illegal drugs, f) Second Amendment, and g) equal opportunity (no race or gender based preference giving) planks in the Republican Party platform. The newsletters discourage Democrat, Libertarian, and Green party promotion of a) dependency on government and charity, b) LGBTQ, c) abortion, d) mass/illegal immigration, e) booze, gambling, pot, and other vices, f) diminishment of Second Amendment rights, and g) Affirmative Action, Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion, that is, patronage, political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, and age discrimination. If the Illinois Republican Party, Republican county party organizations, Republican township and ward party organizations, Republican elected officials, conservative leaders and activists, and religious leaders and activists did what they should be doing, there would be no need for GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters and Republicans would be the majority in Illinois, in DuPage County, in Milton Township, and in Wheaton.

When Firestone Stores hired me in 1970 and assigned me to its Chicago Heights store, the manager of that store demonstrated his disapprove of those who shared my demographics (draft avoider, Protestant, German American, former government employee, Crete resident since 1948) by forcing me to pass 2 weeks of probation at Firestone’s store in Gary, Indiana.

I would focus on those who have/had lots of religious, government, political, and/or financial clout in Wheaton, Milton Township, DuPage County, and/or Illinois. I would focus on those who stress that I do not have a degree in journalism, that I am not paid for what I do, and that I do not claim to be nonpartisan. They ignore/downplay/dismiss/belittle/demonize/denigrate/condemn the fact that I worked for GAO as an Analyst for almost 18 years, the last 11 years of which at the GS-13 Step 1-10 Levels, currently $109,732-$142,650/year, and that most, if not virtually all, of what GAO Analysts do is extremely similar to what journalists and reporters do.)
https://www.dailysignal.com/2023/08/04/white-house-purges-442-reporters-using-new-press-credential-rules/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Over the past three months, the number of reporters with access to the White House dropped by 31%. There are now 442 fewer reporters with a coveted “hard pass”—the result of new rules announced in May that took effect Tuesday. The Daily Signal’s Fred Lucas was among the reporters slated to lose his White House press credentials, although he was given a 10-day extension “to submit the required materials.” The White House now requires reporters to obtain press credentials from Congress or the Supreme Court to fulfill its new requirement; Lucas is currently awaiting a decision on his applications to the other branches. Politico’s West Wing Playbook first reported the numbers Wednesday along with news that Simon Ateba, the White House correspondent for Today News Africa, lost his hard pass. Ateba, along with the other 441 reporters who no longer have credentials, won’t be able to attend White House press briefings or access the sprawling Pennsylvania Avenue campus unless they obtain what’s called a temporary day pass. The White House announced new rules in May to limit the number of journalists who are eligible for a White House hard pass. Reporters are still allowed to apply for a day pass, but they must do so daily and undergo Secret Service review. Up until this week, the White House didn’t disclose the number of reporters who had a hard pass. Politico reported, “Within the past three months, the number of hard pass holders dropped from 1,417 to 975, with those approved reflecting a mix of renewals and new applications.” . . . The six rules outlined in the May memo require reporters to be employed full time at an organization that disseminates news, live in the Washington, D.C., area, regularly access and cover the White House, and submit to a Secret Service investigation. They also now require pass holders to first obtain “accreditation by a press gallery in either the U.S. Senate, U.S. House of Representatives, or Supreme Court.” (See the full email from the White House Press Office at the end of this story.) The memo also gives President Joe Biden’s press team greater power to expel journalists who don’t “act in a professional manner.” Ateba regularly sparred with White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre, leading to stories in The New York Times, The Washington Post, and an appearance on the now-canceled “Tucker Carlson Tonight.” Last month, the White House Press Office sent Ateba a warning that he risked expulsion if he continued to interrupt briefings in violation of the new rules.)

NATIONAL JURIST
— Best job market since 1987 for law grads (COMMENT: In 1971, when I was 22 years old, my Democrat IRS superiors hired me as a GS-7 (currently $52,002/year) Revenue Officer. The employee manual that they gave me encouraged Revenue Officers to take graduate business, accounting, and/or law courses. In 1972, I started taking graduate evening business courses at Loyola, and in 1976 I earned an MBA. In 1976, I started taking graduate evening accounting courses at DePaul, and in 1980 I earned a master’s degree. In 1979, I took and passed the CPA examination on my first attempt. Virtually none of my coworkers did anything close to that. All my coworkers who my Democrat superiors promoted over me were Democrats a) who had less job-related work experience than I had, b) had less job-related education than I had, and/or c) had no professional certification.)

https://www.politico.com/newsletters/illinois-playbook/2023/08/03/mayors-message-to-media-chill-00109591
(FROM THE ARTICLE: In Illinois, where Democrats control all the top-tier elected seats, the GOP is plagued by intraparty tensions as the right-wing arm of the party has tried to take control of the current leadership. Making it worse: The party has also lost some of its major donors to Florida, including former Gov. Bruce Rauner and billionaire Ken Griffin. That’s put the Illinois GOP in a financial bind, forcing it to get creative in attracting big donors. Earlier this month, for example, Texas Sen. Ted Cruz, headlined a fundraiser for the Illinois GOP.)

— Confronting Systemic Racism – James Edwards
https://americanfreepress.net/confronting-systemic-racism/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The system in the United States of America is at war with white people and our families. As stark as it may sound, the cold hard truth is that the central organizing principle of the American system is that white people are unspeakably and incorrigibly evil and must be removed from the face of the Earth as fast as is expediently possible. It breaks down like this: White people are unspeakably evil. No matter what we do or don’t do, whites will always be evil. Our very existence harms non-whites. Therefore, whites must be ignored, denounced, humiliated, handicapped, disadvantaged, punished, and even replaced by non-whites through immigration, with the final goal of eventually removing all white people from the face of the earth through mixing or violence. It can be a struggle to convince our “conservative” friends and family that their own government, media, and institutions really do hate us and consider us the enemy. Most will admit that the government and the media go a bit overboard with the diversity stuff but will deny that it’s all that bad. “Sure, there’s some favoritism toward non-whites in some areas, but to say the system hates white people is over the top.” So, I thought I’d make a list of some questions you can ask to help them see the light. Here are just a few.)

— Democrats say “Expenses beyond tuition add up. How college students should budget to stretch their money.” If my parents had not provided me with room and board in their Crete home while I took classes at UIC 1966-1968, weekends during my first semester at NIU in 1969, and the summer of 1969, I would not have been able to graduate debt-free from NIU in 1970 owning a 1969 Dodge Charger SE.

WBUR
— Democrats ask “Can class-based preferences solve our country’s equity issues?” From what I see, your parents’ education, income, religion, and national origin determine your class. To paint me as being low class, my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes have always stressed a) that neither of my parents attended college, b) that my father was only the first of my ancestors to earn a high school diploma, c) that my mother never attended high school, d) that my father never earned more than $50,000/year in today’s dollars, e) that he worked in the office of a nasty chemical plant, f) that he almost always worked second jobs to pay the family’s bills, g) that because of the aforesaid, I had to work my way through college, h) that my parents were Missouri Synod Lutherans and raised me as one, i) that my parents were 100% German American, j) that I only just barely made it into upper 20% of my high school class, k) that my ACT score was only 24, l) that none of my degrees are from Ivy League universities, m) that I was a union member for almost 12 years, n) that I was a federal employee for almost 30 years, o) that the federal government never promoted me beyond GS-13 Step 10, currently only $142,650/year, p) that the federal government forced me to take its early retirement “offer” in 1997 when I was 49 years old, q) that many high class people in Wheaton, in Milton Township, in DuPage County, and in Illinois have taken many big adverse actions against me, actions that they would never had taken if I shared their religion or their national origin.

HARVARD CRIMSON
— Democrats say “Harvard Overhauls College Application in Wake of Affirmative Action Decision.” I have always believed in full disclosure. Knowing the bias against those who share my demographics, in my application to be selected to fill the Wheaton City Council West District vacancy in 2019, I purposely hinted/implied/argued/shouted in that application that I was conservative, Republican, White, male, old (born in 1948), draft-avoider, Missouri Synod Lutheran, and 100% German American, that my ancestors had been in America since 1844, that I had lived in Wheaton only since 1978, that I had lived in Wheaton’s West District only since 1984, that I had lived in Crete 1948-1972, that I had helped stop Wheaton from installing a traffic signal at Harrison and President, that I had sued Wheaton’s most successful and powerful developer, that I had sued Wheaton, that I had helped stop Wheaton’s efforts to legalize video gambling and selling pot, that I had led a group that succeeded in forcing Wheaton to force Comcast to carry Fox News Channel in 2001, that I had served on Wheaton Chamber of Commerce Government Affairs Committee 2003-2011, that I had been the Republican fundraiser for Wheaton Independence Day parades and fireworks since 2005, that I had been a Republican Precinct Committeeman since 1999, that I had been the GOPUSA Illinois Editor since 2000, that I organized Wheaton’s 2003 and 2004 9/11 events, etc.

(FROM THE ROUNDUP: U.S. Representative Mike Bost (IL-12) today announced that his re-election campaign has been endorsed by 22 Republican Central Committee leaders from across the 12th Congressional District. Bost’s coalition of support includes the State Central Committeewoman and Deputy State Central Committeeman for IL-12, as well as 21 Republican county chairs. This newest list of Republican endorsements comes just days after Bost announced support from over 100 local GOP leaders. “These GOP Central Committee chairs know how much work went into turning Southern Illinois into the Republican stronghold it is today,” said Bost. “And they know we put it all at risk when conservatives start attacking each other rather than taking it to Biden and the liberals who are trying to defeat our values. I appreciate the overwhelming support of our local party leaders and will continue working with them to preserve the strong, unified, conservative movement that has served our region so well.”)

Trump was born into wealth and has been labeled a draft dodger for a claim of foot bone spurs that enabled him to skip military service.)

They bring attention to news and commentary that promote the a) individual responsibility, b) traditional marriage and family, c) right to life, d) immigration, e) illegal drugs, f) Second Amendment, and g) equal opportunity (no race or gender based preference giving) planks in the Republican Party platform. The newsletters discourage Democrat, Libertarian, and Green party promotion of a) dependency on government and charity, b) LGBTQ, c) abortion, d) mass/illegal immigration, e) booze, gambling, pot, and other vices, f) diminishment of Second Amendment rights, and g) Affirmative Action, Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion, that is, patronage, political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, and age discrimination. If the Illinois Republican Party, Republican county party organizations, Republican township and ward party organizations, Republican elected officials, conservative leaders and activists, and religious leaders and activists did what they should be doing, there would be no need for GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters and Republicans would be the majority in Illinois, in DuPage County, in Milton Township, and in Wheaton.

I would focus on those candidates who have blamed what I have done as the GOPUSA Illinois Editor since 2000. I would focus on those candidates who blamed what I did as a) the Republican fundraiser for Wheaton Independence Day parades and fireworks 2005-2019, b) the chairman of TAPROOT Republicans of Illinois 2005-2012, and c) a member of the Illinois Center Right Coalition (ICRC) Steering Committee 2003-2007.

The more of the aforesaid that a recruit is, the more that recruit would be given unfair job assignments, unfair performance expectations, and unfair performance appraisals and the more that “up-or-out” would be used to get rid of that recruit. The Democrats who run the federal government want all federal employees to be “good little Democrats.”

It is called a) up-or-out, b) political affiliation discrimination, c) reverse discrimination, d) age discrimination, e) religious discrimination, and f) national origin discrimination. All my coworkers who my Democrat IRS superiors promoted over me were Democrats who were minority, female, veteran, non-Protestant, and/or non-German American and/or a) had less job-related work experience than I had, b) had less job-related education than I had, and/or c) had no professional certifications.

— Democrats promote housing affordability in Wheaton. In 1972, when I was 24 years old, I could afford to buy a new town home in University Park. My IRS salary was $63,633/year in today’s dollars and I was also working part-time for the Firestone Store in Chicago Heights. But if that town home had been in Wheaton, I could not have afforded to do that because the builder would have demanded much more for it. In 1978, my wife and I could afford to buy 1017 East Harrison in Wheaton. My GAO salary was $101,507/year in today’s dollars. But if that home had been in Glen Ellyn, we could not have afforded to do that because the sellers would have demanded much more for it.

MCHENRY COUNTY BLOG
— When to Call Your State Rep. or Senator or Both (COMMENT: In retrospect, with benefit of hindsight, I should have called my Republican U.S. Senator and my Republican U.S. Representative every time my Democrat Post Office (1966-1969), IRS (1971-1980), and GAO (1980-1997) superiors took adverse actions against me. But I acknowledge that might very well have not saved me because many of my Republican U.S. Senators and my Republican U.S. Representatives a) rejected the equal opportunity (no race or gender based preference giving) plank in the Republican Party platform, b) promoted patronage, political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, and/or age discrimination, c) were anti-draft avoiders, d) were anti-Protestant, e) anti-German American, f) were anti-conservative if not anti-Republican, and/or g) were anti-those who did not give them lots of money. I lived in Crete 1948-1972, University Park 1972-1976, Chicago 1976-1978, and Wheaton since 1978.)

CENTER SQUARE ILLINOIS
— Leaders of the union representing Chicago police say they have reached a tentative agreement with the city over a retention bonus. State Rep. La Shawn Ford, D-Chicago, told The Center Square that retention benefits are needed to keep competent police officers in the city. – Andrew Hensel (COMMENT: Since 1997, when I was 49 years old, when my Democrat GAO superiors succeeded in forcing me to take their early retirement “offer,” my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes have hinted/implied/argued/shouted that my Democrat GAO superiors did that because I was incompetent and even worse things. In my defense, I stress that a) I had earned a master’s degree in financial markets and trading from IIT and I had become a Forensic Accountant that year, b) I had become a Certified Financial Service Auditor in 1996, c) I had become a Certified Government Financial Manager in 1994, d) I had become a Certified Fraud Examiner in 1990, e) I had passed the Certified Internal Auditor examination on my first attempt and I had become a licensed CPA in 1981, f) I had earned a master’s degree in accounting from DePaul in 1980, g) I had passed the CPA examination on my first attempt in 1979, and h) I had earned an MBA from Loyola in 1976. Because my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes had to acknowledge the aforesaid, they have ever-increasingly hinted/implied/argued/shouted that the real reason why I was forced into early retirement was that I am a White supremacist, Nazi, KKK member, hater, racist, sexist, bigot, and even worse things. This all came out when my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes unsuccessfully tried to get the Illinois Center Right Coalition to censure me for my GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters during its 2006 Annual Convention in the Wheaton Bowl Banquet Hall. I should write a book about my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes. Better yet, I should sue them.)

— Affirmative Action Bred Hypocrisy and Victimhood.

I should write books about them. I would focus on those who have hinted/implied/argued/shouted the most that I should pay the price of AA and DEI big time because my parents were filthy rich and because I have benefitting tremendously from discrimination against minorities, females, younger people, LGBTQers, veterans, non-Christians, non-Protestants, non-German Americans, those whose ancestors have not been in America for a long time, citizens of foreign countries, boozers, gamblers, stoners, criminals, those who have less money than I had/have, etc. I would focus on those who have taken the most/biggest adverse actions against me. I would focus on my Democrat superiors in the federal government and a) RINO leaders of the Milton Township Republican Organization, DuPage County Republican Central Committee, and Illinois Republican Party, b) RINO leaders of Wheaton, Wheaton Park District, Wheaton Chamber of Commerce, Milton Township, DuPage County, and Illinois, c) RINO candidates on ballots in my precinct and their major donors, political consultants, fundraisers, pollsters, campaign managers, campaign staff members, and campaign volunteers, and d) RINO conservative and religious leaders and activists.

https://dupagepolicyjournal.com/stories/646021621-manley-what-struck-me-was-the-level-of-indignance-both-commissioner-tornatore-and-chairman-zay-demonstrated
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The Downers Grove Township Republican Organization hosted DuPage Commissioner Sam Tornatore and DuPage GOP Chairman Jim Zay. Noel Manley, a committeeman with the Downers Grove Township Republican Organization (DGTRO), said the pair’s performance was less than desirable. “DuPage Commissioner Tornatore and DuPage GOP Chairman Zay appeared at our July 10, 2023 DGTRO Committemen’s meeting,” Manley told the DuPage Policy Journal. “Both were invited by DGTRO Chairman Jack Novak to address concerns raised by committeemen regarding their actions. Commissioner Tornatore addressed a $1,000.00 donation made by his firm to Democrat Deb Conroy.” “The commissioner reported that he was invited to the event by a trusted Republican friend. It was discovered last night that donating to Democrat events is a common practice among Republican leadership. Chairman Zay’s remarks focused on coming together as Republicans and not dwell in the past. Both justified their actions as efforts necessary to protect the budgets of the DuPage County Sheriff’s Office and the DuPage County State’s Attorney’s Office.” “However, what struck me was the level of indignance both Commissioner Tornatore and Chairman Zay demonstrated in their explanations. Specifically, their justifications were peppered with comments such as, ‘I didn’t have to be here tonight.’ In addition, questions and comments raised by committeemen regarding the lack of support in recent elections, and contributions to Democrat events were simply dismissed or ignored. In fact, there was no effort to demonstrate any humility or contriteness regarding these matters.” “To compound this presentation, DGTRO Chairman Jack Novak referred to our group of concerned committeemen as anarchists and declared that there is no room for activism in the Republican Party. So it was clear that there was no interest in listening to our concerns, nor a willingness to understand the demoralizing impact GOP leadership’s actions are taking on the rank and file. In fact, the subtext was the exact opposite, ‘Get in line, and shut up. And pay no attention to the man behind the curtain.’” Zay, chairman of the DuPage County Republican Party, has refused to criticize fellow Republicans who financially and materially supported Democratic candidate Deb Conroy in her campaign for DuPage County Board Chair. In a letter to the DuPage GOP, Zay emphasized the need for unity within the party and calls for an end to public criticism of fellow Republicans, stating that it only weakens the party and hinders its ability to expand its base. The statement came after Republican members, including Tornatore and former Board member Donald Puchalski, were outed by the DuPage Policy Journal for making campaign donations to Conroy, drawing attention and controversy within the party. Another Republican, former DuPage County Board member Pete DiCianni was paid by Conroy’s campaign for marketing efforts to get her elected. The DuPage Republicans who have thrown in to support the campaigns of Democrats as we Zay drew the ire of former state representative and one-time gubernatorial candidate Jeanne Ives. Ives, now CEO of Breakthrough Ideas, criticized her fellow DuPage County Republicans for supporting the progressive Conroy’s campaign for DuPage County Board Chair, highlighting Conroy’s alignment with the Democratic Party’s platform and her controversial legislative decisions. “Democrat policies have destroyed the state of Illinois,” Ives said. “I am disgusted that any of my fellow Republicans would do so or defend other Republicans who do so, especially a fundraiser for Deb Conroy.” “Conroy is opposed to every single aspect of our Republican party platform.”)

— French riots show the future of Joe Biden’s America – William Davis
https://www.americanthinker.com/blog/2023/07/french_riots_show_the_future_of_joe_bidens_america.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: As the U.S. deals with the consequences of mass immigration, important lessons can be learned from our oldest European ally. Over the past few weeks, France has been engulfed in riots after a 17-year-old boy was shot and killed by a police officer during a traffic stop. The rioting and looting have largely been centered in communities with many migrants from North African and Islamic nations. The rioting has caused more than one billion dollars in property damage, and has led to thousands of arrests. It has also led to a renewed debate in Europe about the costs of mass migration and whether or not those costs are worth it. It’s not just the U.S. that has experienced an influx of foreign nationals in recent years. France took in a record number of migrants in 2022, both legal and illegal. The European Union resettled nearly one million migrants last year, not including refugees from war-torn Ukraine. The main countries of origin for these refugees were Syria, Afghanistan, Turkey, Venezuela, and Columbia. Just as we’ve seen in the U.S., these large influxes of migrants have had a destabilizing effect on the continent’s cultural, economic, and political life. The carnage occurring in France is the result of long-simmering tensions finally coming to the surface. It’s the results of migrants from third-world, war-torn countries not assimilating into their new country, but bringing the baggage from their old countries with them. During the France riots, a group of North African migrants could be seen chanting “f*ck France,” and “We’re just here for the welfare!” The crassness of these migrants certainly isn’t representative of everybody seeking to come from the third world to prosperous western nations, but it is indicative of a larger problem with mass immigration. Many of these foreign nationals come from countries where violence and chaos has been normalized, and the importation of migrants from these types of countries can also serve to normalize the same type of disorder in their new countries. This is why what’s happening in France should serve as a warning sign for Americans. More than five million illegal aliens have crossed the U.S.-Mexico border since Joe Biden took office.)

— Democrats say “In DEI training, Oak Park board talks plain about English.

Tragically, they were very slow to speak, read, and write English. Consequently, my father was only the first of my ancestors to earn a high school diploma. My mother never attended high school.
https://www.oakpark.com/2023/07/11/in-dei-training-oak-park-board-talks-plain-about-english/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: When the Oak Park village board first embarked on cultural competency training, its first session, held June 26, was dedicated to deconstructing what racial equity really is and the myths surrounding it. That deconstruction work continued July 5 during the board’s second session but evolved into an interesting discussion of how the prevalence of the English language in the United States has been used to assert cultural dominance. “I think being able to speak multiple languages is like a superpower, but it’s not always necessarily considered a value,” said Danielle Walker, the village’s chief officer of diversity, equity and inclusion. The discussion of the English language’s influence on American culture was spurred by Trustee Lucia Robinson, who used English-speaking mandates in areas along the United States-Mexico border as an example of how policies and practices can reinforce the systemic social barriers that create inequity.)

https://www.politico.com/newsletters/illinois-playbook/2023/07/13/uihleins-say-new-law-really-blows-00106077
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Republican megadonors Dick and Liz Uihlein have lost some big battles over the years, but the latest one hits close to home — literally. The rule really blows: The Uihleins asked the Village of Lake Bluff, where they live on a huge estate, to exempt them from a new regulation that bans smelly, noisy gas-powered leaf blowers from May 15 to Sept. 30. Who’s exempt: Only public properties such as golf courses, village athletic fields and schools are allowed the exemption — and that’s just for two years while they get battery-powered equipment in hand. The Uihleins made their request in a June 2 letter to Village Administrator Drew Irvin. “Given the size of our 22-acre property in Lake Bluff, we would like to request a similar two-year exemption,” they wrote, adding that battery-powered blowers “simply cannot get the job done as well and are basically just as noisy as gas-powered ones.” Village President Regis Charlot referred the Uihleins’ request to the village’s Sustainability and Community Enhancement Committee, which discussed the issue but rejected the request, Irvin told Playbook. Village trustees unanimously agreed, and officially snuffed the Uihleins’ request at their June 27 board meeting, according to Pioneer Press’ Daniel I. Dorfman, who first wrote about the issue. From the board: “There are tools out there that can be used,” Trustee Marietta Hance said in Dorfman’s story. “This is a private family asking the community to make an exemption for them. It doesn’t fit with what we have decided.” Not their first loss: The Uihleins, who didn’t return requests for comment, are among the largest Republican donors in the country. And as POLITICO’s Alex Isenstadt recently wrote, the Uihleins have been criticized “for squandering millions of dollars on failed longshot candidates, including several in 2022, like Illinois gubernatorial candidate Darren Bailey and Arkansas Senate hopeful Jake Bequette.” The couple’s combined political giving to federal candidates and causes over the last decade exceeds $230 million, according to campaign finance records.)

— Chicago police threatening lawsuit if not granted same parental leave as teachers – Andrew Hensel (COMMENT: Ever since 1966 when I was 18 years old and started working part-time for the Park Forest Post Office, my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes a) have viciously blasted me for getting federal employee benefits ( https://www.federaldisability.com/benefits-of-working-in-the-federal-government/ ) and/or b) have viciously demonized me, denigrated me, and condemned me as being grossly overpaid. I should write a book about those who have blasted me, demonized me, denigrated me, and condemned me the most. I would focus on a) those who did things that disqualified themselves for federal employment, b) those who failed/refused to get required education, work experience, professional certifications, and/or professional licenses, c) those who failed/refused to take federal employment examinations and/or failed to pass those examinations, and d) those who have promoted the most hatred against past, present, and/or future federal employees. I would not have accepted IRS’s job offer in 1971 a) if I had not been unemployed because Oldsmobile had withdrawn a job offer that I had accepted saying that it had just agreed to stop hiring Whites to settle an EEOC complaint, b) if I did not need immediate income to help support my mother and brother, and c) if I had not already been a federal employee for almost 3 years.)

HR DRIVE & HRO TODAY
— More than half of workers say they’re looking for a career change – Carolyn Crist (COMMENT: To justify forcing me to suffer a $21,863/year (21%) pay cut in today’s dollars to transfer from IRS to GAO in 1980 when I was 31 years old, the Democrats who ran GAO falsely painted my job transfer as being a career change. They ignored the fact that very much of what I did for IRS was very similar to what I would be doing for GAO. That similarity was shown by the fact that I passed the Certified Internal Auditor examination on my first attempt and became a licensed CPA in 1981. They not only would not have forced me to suffer a pay cut to transfer, they would have offered me a promotion to transfer if I had been a Democrat, minority, female, younger, veteran, LGBTQer, non-Christian, non-Protestant, non-German American, and/or if my ancestors had not been in America for a long time for the following reasons: a) GAO audits IRS, b) I had worked for IRS for almost 9 years, the last 5 1/2 years of which at the GS-12 Step 1-5 Levels, currently $92,279-$104,563/year, b) I had passed the CPA examination on my first attempt in 1979, and c) I had earned an MNA from Loyola in 1976. I should write a book about the aforesaid.)
