— I have been a Republican political consultant in Illinois since 2001. I served on the American Association of Political Consultants Midwest Chapter board of directors 2001-2004. Before 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 $115,439-$150,075/year. Much of what GAO does and much of what I did was consulting. Political parties exist to help elect candidates who can and will defend and advance their platform. What do you say to “Republican” political consultants in Illinois who advise Republican candidates in Illinois a) to fail/refuse to promise to defend and advance the personal responsibility, traditional marriage and family, right to life, immigration, illegal drugs, immigration, and/or equal opportunity (no race or gender based preference giving) planks in the Republican Party platform, b) to run as Democrat Lite, RINO, anti-conservative, and/or anti-Republican, c) to run if they are liberal/moderate, minority, female, younger, non-Protestant, non-German American, and/or have ancestors who have not been in America for a long time, and/or d) to not run if they are conservative, White, male, older, Protestant, German American, and/or have ancestors who have been in America for a long time? – Dave Diersen

GOPUSA ILLINOIS
— As Illinois Democrat leaders ever-increasing a) succeed in driving out of Illinois those who have demographics that vote for Republicans and b) succeed in attracting to Illinois those who have demographics that vote for Democrats, anticipate/expect that fewer and fewer and fewer candidates will run in Republican primaries and caucuses and that those who do run and win a) will increasingly fail/refuse to promise to defend and advance more and more and more planks in the Republican party platform, b) will increasingly run as Democrat Lite, RINO, anti-conservative, and/or anti-Republican, c) will more likely to be Democrat plants, Libertarian plants, Green plants, Independent plants, or RINOs, d) will be minorities, females, younger, LGBTQ, non-Protestant, non-German American, and/or have ancestors who have not been in America for a long time and/or have spouses who are the aforesaid and are running to get more and more and more preference for those who share their demographics, e) will be less and less and less qualified for the offices that they seek, f) will raise and spend less and less and less money for their campaigns, and g) will campaign less and less and less aggressively. The aforesaid ever-increasingly portends the dissolution of the Republican Party in Illinois. – Dave Diersen

BIZ PAC REVIEW
— In a series of clips published to the Trump War Room X account, Trump detailed his plan to Make Housing Affordable Again, an issue that many people especially younger Americans have struggled with in recent years. “Finally, I will save America’s suburbs by protecting single-family zoning. The Radical Left wants to abolish the suburbs by forcing apartment complexes and low-income housing into the suburbs right next to your beautiful house,” he said. Trump also pledged to end mortgages for illegal aliens as well as overtime pay taxes, allowing Americans to keep more of their hard-earned money.

https://thehill.com/homenews/campaign/4877506-laura-loomer-trump-criticism/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Far-right activist Laura Loomer’s visible presence alongside former President Trump in recent days is sparking questions about her influence and a substantial amount of criticism from figures aligned with the GOP presidential nominee. Loomer is an outspoken Trump supporter who is known for spreading conspiracy theories and using racist rhetoric. She flew on Trump’s plane to Tuesday’s debate in Philadelphia and was part of his entourage as he attended memorial events Wednesday to mark the anniversary of the 9/11 terrorist attacks. She does not have any official role with Trump’s campaign, multiple sources said. Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.), a staunch Trump ally, engaged in a heated and personal social media battle with Loomer over social platform X that began Wednesday night and carried into Thursday. Greene separately told reporters it would be a mistake to rely on Loomer for advice and that her rhetoric did not fit in with Trump’s “Make America Great Again” movement. “This is such an important election. I don’t think that she has the experience or the right mentality to advise,” Greene told reporters Wednesday, adding she was not privy to Trump’s conversations with Loomer. “I do know this, that her rhetoric and her tone does not match the base, it does not match MAGA, it does not match most Republicans I know,” Greene continued. “And I’m really denouncing it. I’m over it.” Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.), a strong ally of Trump in the Senate, on Thursday called out Loomer for racist comments about Vice President Harris, in which she used crude stereotypes to attack Harris’s Indian heritage. The remarks were also criticized by Greene. Graham said the remarks were “abhorrent” and noted Loomer also has made “disturbing” comments about Republicans. “I think that the president would serve himself well to make sure this doesn’t become a bigger story,” Graham told HuffPost. Loomer was spotted deplaning with Trump aides and family members Tuesday in Philadelphia ahead of the debate between the GOP nominee and Harris, and she was in the spin room that night. Some conservatives took note that Loomer was on the former president’s plane before the debate, during which Trump repeated a debunked claim shared by Loomer and others about migrants eating pets in an Ohio town. Loomer was again spotted with Trump’s crew when he visited a fire station in New York City to mark the anniversary of 9/11, and she posted video from his visit to Shanksville, Pa., where Flight 93 crashed. When asked about Loomer’s presence at Wednesday’s events, a Trump campaign official said the day “wasn’t about anyone other than the souls who are no longer with us, their families, and the heroes who courageously stepped up to save their fellow Americans on that fateful day.” Trump attended a New York City memorial alongside President Biden and Harris that morning. Loomer was defiant Thursday as she found herself at the center of multiple articles and cable news segments. She said she does not work for Trump and claimed she was being targeted because of her work targeting politicians and media members. “I stand by everything I have said. I will not be deleting any tweets. I will not apologize for fighting for Donald Trump. I will not apologize for fighting for the truth and the American people,” Loomer posted on X. “The American people deserve people who fight instead of cowering in fear of the media,” she continued. “I don’t care about what they or any sellout member of Congress has to say about me.” This week was not the first time Trump has signaled he’s open to Loomer’s presence in his orbit. He congratulated her after she won a Florida House primary in 2020. Last year, Trump reportedly told advisers to give Loomer a campaign role for his White House bid. She ultimately did not join the campaign in any official capacity. Loomer has previously described Islam as a “cancer.” She was banned from ride-hailing apps Uber and Lyft in 2017 after posting online that she “never want[s] to support another Islamic immigrant driver.” She was banned from then-Twitter after a series of anti-Muslim posts and was reinstated after Elon Musk purchased the platform. Democrats, including the White House, blasted Loomer’s recent comments and argued Trump’s association with her should be a red flag for the American people. House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-N.Y.) on Thursday ripped Trump as a “conspiracy theory-peddling, racial arsonist and pathological liar.” He said Trump’s willingness to bring a conspiracy theorist like Loomer to a 9/11 event “should shock the conscience of all decent Americans.” White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre called Loomer’s most recent comments about Harris “repugnant” and “un-American.” “No leader should ever associate with someone who spreads this kind of ugliness. This kind of racist poison … and who continues to fan these kinds of dangerous and insulting conspiracy theories,” she said.)

— University of Illinois System keeps growing as other state schools flounder (COMMENT: I was a full-time UIC student 1966-1968 while lived with my parents and brother in Crete and worked part-time for the Park Forest Post Office. I transferred to NIU in 1969 and graduated with a bachelor’s degree in management in 1970. According to my critics/opponents, degrees from non-Ivy League colleges are worthless.)

HERITAGE FOUNDATION
— The Middle Class Is Collateral Damage in Biden’s War on Wealth (COMMENT: I was collateral damage, or was I?  When Republican senators and representatives gutted GAO during the 1980s and 1990s, they had to know that the Democrats who ran the agency would use those budget cuts to get rid of the agency’s Republican employees, of which I was one. My Democrat GAO superiors a) forced me to take a $22,996/year (21%) pay cut in today’s dollars to transfer from IRS to GAO in 1980, b) gave me unfair performance expectations and performance appraisals, c) assigned me to supervise their most problematic employees, d) delayed my promotions and never promoted me beyond GS-13, e) kept me off audits of IRS except 1986-1988, f) always ranked me in the bottom half of my coworkers for pay-for-performance purposes, and g) forced me to retire when I was 49 in 1997. While I worked for GAO, I was always one of the very few Republican employees in its Chicago Office.)

GOVERNMENT EXECUTIVE
— IRS workforce is more diverse than the national civilian labor force. So why is GAO criticizing the tax agency’s DEI programs? A new GAO report found that women, employees from historically disadvantaged racial or ethnic groups and persons with disabilities were underrepresented in senior levels at the agency. (COMMENT: While I worked for the Democrats who ran IRS for almost 9 years 1971-1980, they used Affirmative Action and DEI big time to not hire Republicans and to get rid of their Republican employees. All my coworkers who they promoted over me a) were Democrats who had less work experience than I had, had less education than I had, and/or had no professional certification like the one I had and/or b) were Democrats who were minority, female, younger than me, and/or veteran. I earned an MBA in 1976, I passed the CPA examination on my first attempt in 1979, and I earned a master’s degree in accounting in 1980. Because I complained about political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, and age discrimination, my Democrat IRS superiors not only did not promote me after 1974, they a) disallowed my travel vouchers in 1974, b) got rid of the IRS manager who had promoted me in 1972, 1973, and 1974, and c) disallowed my education deductions in 1978.)

U.S. POLITICS
— Democrat and RINO leaders ever-increasingly demand that more preference be given to Black men. My Democrat GAO superiors gave my Black male subordinate tremendous preference. They forced me to retire and gave him my job and my preferred corner office. I should write a book about that. He had less work experience than I had. He had less education than I had. He had fewer professional certifications than I had. He had no professional license like the one I had.

https://www.jdsupra.com/legalnews/recent-changes-to-illinois-employment-7119691/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: 2. Protecting Employees Making Reproductive Health Decisions. Doubling down on protections for reproductive freedom, Illinois added a new category to its list of protected groups under the IHRA. Illinois already has a large set of protected groups. Besides the federally protected groups, which include race, color, sex, age, religion, national origin and mental and physical disability, Illinois also protects employees based on their ancestry, sexual orientation, including gender-related identification, pregnancy, military status, unfavorable military discharge, order of protection status, marital status, citizenship status, work authorization status, language, conviction record and arrest records. Starting on January 1, 2025, Illinois will also prohibit discrimination against employees based on their “reproductive health decisions,” including the use of contraception, fertility or serialization care, assisted reproductive technologies, miscarriage management care, healthcare related to the continuation or termination or pregnancy or prenatal, intranasal or postnatal care. 3. Protecting Employees with Family Responsibilities. Illinois also amended the IHRA (effective January 1, 2025) to prohibit discrimination, harassment or retaliation against employees based on their “family responsibilities” or providing “personal care” to a “family member.” “Personal care” includes an employee providing transportation to or attending a covered family member’s medical appointment or even staying home from work to care for a sick child or parent. This amendment expressly does not require employers to accommodate an employee’s request for time, etc. to provide this personal care or require employers to modify their existing policies and rules. It simply restricts employers from treating these employees differently because of their family responsibilities to provide personal care to family members.)

TRI-COUNTY TIMES
— What are you thankful for? I was born in 1948. If I have been born years later than that, because of my bad demographics (White, male. heterosexual, conservative, Republican, non-veteran, Protestant, German American, and my ancestors have been in America since 1844), I doubt very much that I would have been able to earn a bachelor’s degree and three master’s degrees, six professional certifications, and a professional license. I doubt very much that I would have gotten the jobs and promotions that I got.

GAO
— IRS Workforce: Actions Needed to Address Barriers to Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, and Accessibility (COMMENT: While I worked for the Democrats who ran IRS for almost 9 years 1971-1980, they used Affirmative Action and DEI big time to not hire Republicans and to get rid of their Republican employees. All my coworkers who they promoted over me a) were Democrats who had less work experience than I had, had less education than I had, and/or had no professional certification like the one I had and/or b) were Democrats who were minority, female, younger than me, and/or veteran. I earned an MBA in 1976, I passed the CPA examination on my first attempt in 1979, and I earned a master’s degree in accounting in 1980. Because I complained about political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, and age discrimination, my Democrat IRS superiors not only did not promote me after 1974, they a) disallowed my travel vouchers in 1974, b) got rid of the IRS manager who had promoted me in 1972, 1973, and 1974, and c) disallowed my education deductions in 1978.)

INSIDE HIGHER EDUCATION
— Democrats ever-increasingly shout that minorities have to be given preference forever to succeed. In 1997, when I was 49 years old, my Democrat GAO superiors gave my Black subordinate preference big time. They forced me to retire and gave him my job and my preferred corner office.  26 years earlier, Oldsmobile withdrew a job offer that I had accepted saying that it had just agreed to stop hiring Whites to settle an EEOC complaint.

CRETE-MONEE HIGH SCHOOL
— Alumni Return to Teach & Inspire the Next Generation at Crete-Monee (COMMENT: When you were in high school, were you viewed as being college material? I was not. Neither of my parents had attended college. My father was only the first of my ancestors to earn a high school diploma. My mother never attended high school. I spend my junior and senior years and the summer in between washing dishes. I only just barely made it into the upper 20% of 1966 class. My ACT score was only 24.)

FULCRUM
— My critics/opponents attribute all their successes to meritocracy, but they attribute all my successes my benefitting from discrimination against those who share their demographics. Their demographics include liberal/moderate, Democrat, RINO, minority, female, younger, veteran, LGBTQ, unmarried, non-Protestant, non-German American, and/or have ancestors who have not been in America for a long time. In my defense, I stress that neither or my parents attended college, my father was only the first of my ancestors to earn a high school diploma, my mother never attended high school, and I had to work my way through college. I should write about my critics/opponents whose parents have/had way more money than mine did.

— At 75, staying healthy is my new career. Financial, emotional, mental, nervous and physical requirements lie ahead. (COMMENT: Under the Democrats and under the RINOs, anticipate/expect more and more and more up-or-out. The Democrats who run the federal government use up-or-out to get rid of their Republican employees who they do not promote to GS-13 ($115,439/year) by age 25, GS-14 ($136,414/year) by age 30, GS-15 ($160,458) by age 35, and Senior Executive Service ($191,900/year) by age 40.

My father died suddenly in October of 1969.)

WTTW & CENTRAL ILLINOIS PROUD
— Democrat and RINO leaders ever-increasingly push more pot. Pot is poison. Anticipate/expect that sooner or later, everyone around you will be pot users who will crash and burn. I led the successful effort to stop the sale of pot in Wheaton. Virtually all my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes a) have used pot, b) are using pot, c) want to use pot, and/or d) want to make money selling pot. I have never used pot and I never will. I have always vehemently opposed pot. If I had been a pot user, I would not have graduated in the upper 20% of my high school class, my ACT score would have been lower, and UIC would not have accepted me in 1966. I would not have earned a bachelor’s degree from NIU in 1970 and master’s degrees from Loyola in 1976, DePaul in 1980, and IIT in 1997. The Post Office would not have hired me in 1966, IRS in 1971, and GAO in 1980, and if they had hired me, IRS would not have promoted me in 1972, 1973, and 1974 and GAO would not have promoted me in 1986. I would not have passed on my first attempt the CPA examination in 1979 and the Certified Internal Auditor examination in 1981. I would not have become a licensed CPA in 1981, Certified Fraud Examiner in 1990, Certified Government Financial Manager in 1994, Certified Financial Services Auditor in 1996, and Forensic Accountant in 1997.

— To have a child or not? Motherhood, IVF, abortion and fertility took center stage at DNC. (COMMENT: According to my Democrat GAO superiors, if my wife and had children, I would not have been able to a) pass the CPA examination on my first attempt in 1979, b) earn a master’s degree in accounting from DePaul in 1980, c) pass the Certified Internal Auditor examination on my first attempt and become a licensed CPA in 1981, d) have a home built in Wheaton in 1984, e) get promoted in 1986, f) etc. All my Democrat GAO superiors were married, had children, had spouses who had little or no income, had less education than I had, had no professional certifications or fewer than I had, and/or had no professional license. They all complained about the high cost of raising children. They all punished me for my wife and I for our not trying IVF, our not adopting, and our not becoming foster parents.)

— ‘Horrific, heinous and inexplicable’
https://www.politico.com/newsletters/illinois-playbook/2024/09/04/horrific-heinous-and-inexplicable-00177278
(FROM THE ARTICLE: SHOCKING DETAILS have emerged about how four people were killed while sleeping on a Blue Line train in the early morning hours of the Labor Day holiday. Heading to court: A man identified as Rhanni S. Davis will appear before a judge today on charges he murdered four train passengers in what Cook County State’s Attorney Kim Foxx told reporters was a “horrific, heinous and inexplicable” act of violence. It’s seldom we write about crime at the top of Illinois Playbook, a newsletter you’ve come to recognize for its focus on government and politics. But this isn’t just any crime. It’s senseless. Authorities say no one was robbed. And there appear to have been no arguments leading up to it.)

In 1980, I had a) passed the CPA examination on my first attempt in 1979, b) almost completed the requirements for a master’s degree in accounting from DePaul, c) earned an MBA from Loyola in 1976, and d) worked for IRS for almost 9 years, the last 5 1/2 years of which at the GS-12 Step 1-5 Levels, currently $97,079-$110,020/year.

Extremely few federal employees make the aforesaid promotion deadlines. I did not make GS-13 until I was 38 and I never made GS-14. However, I did make GS-13 Step 10 ($150,075) when I was 49 in 1997.

— Downstate group behind movement to break free from Cook County (COMMENT: My critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes oppose this.)
https://www.thecentersquare.com/illinois/article_82a0406e-66f9-11ef-841c-7bc1592e9f99.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Growing unrest over the policies coming out of Cook County is spurring talk among downstate counties of breaking free and forming a new state. Illinois Separation revealed that seven counties will vote on separating from Cook County and forming a new state. Spokesman Eric Ivers, a member of the Jersey County Board, said he is confident that a vast majority of residents will vote to form a new state. “There are three or four counties downstate that voted blue, but the rest of us are tired of being pushed through the ringer by the folks up in Cook County,” said Ivers. The ballot question will read “Shall the Board of ____ County correspond with the boards of other counties of Illinois outside of Cook about the possibility of separating from Cook County to form a new state, and to seek admission to the Union as such, subject to the approval of the people?” The question is non-binding. Iroquois County will be the first county to vote on the issue that is not more southerly than Peoria, as the movement has been predominantly in the southern half of the state. The other counties putting the question on the ballot include Madison, Jersey, Clinton, Calhoun, Greene and Perry counties. Ivers said the possibility that downstate Illinois could become a new state increased recently when Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer expressed openness to next year ending the ability of minorities to block Senate legislation using a filibuster. It’s conceivable that Democrats could trade statehood for Washington D.C. or Puerto Rico in return for statehood for downstate Illinois. In 2020-2022, 26 and a half counties voted in favor of such questions, and none voted in opposition. The counties averaged 74% in favor. Constitutionally, any deal to make downstate Illinois into a state would require approval from the Illinois General Assembly.)

https://www.wsj.com/opinion/kamala-harris-mcjob-is-there-a-place-for-mcdonalds-in-her-opportunity-economy-7b6344a5
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Kamala Harris and this columnist have little in common. But we do share one thing: We both had summer jobs at McDonald’s in college. It’s not that surprising, considering how many other people can say the same. According to McDonald’s, 1 in 8 Americans have worked at one of its restaurants. At the Democratic convention in Chicago, we further learned that Ms. Harris’s husband, Doug Emhoff, also worked under the Golden Arches, where he was once Employee of the Month. Ms. Harris features her stint at McDonald’s in a new campaign ad. It’s meant, CNN says, “to solidify her image as the middle-class candidate” and “make former President Donald Trump and the Republican ticket appear elitist and out of touch.” But some question the vice president’s claim. The Washington Free Beacon reports that she never publicly mentioned her stint at McDonald’s until she ran for president in 2019, that the job also went unmentioned in her two books and various job applications, that there’s been no confirmation from McDonald’s itself. Even the online fact-checker Snopes says it’s waiting for further evidence before it can confirm or debunk. Mr. Trump isn’t waiting. On Friday he accused his Democratic rival of making the whole thing up.)

They stress that while I was a union member for almost 12 years, my salary increased from $18.99/hour to $110,020/year in today’s dollars.

— The public-sector pay gap is widening. Public-sector employees earn less than their private-sector counterparts, and that pay gap has widened in recent years. (COMMENT: When I was 49 years old in 1997, my GAO salary was $150,075/year in today’s dollars. What would my salary have been if I had been employed in the private sector? I had three masters degrees (business-Loyola, accounting-DePaul, and finance-IIT). I had six professional certifications (accounting, internal auditing, fraud examination, government financial management, financial services auditing, and forensic accounting). I had a professional license (CPA).)

While I worked for the Post Office 1966-1969, IRS 1971-1980, and GAO 1980-1997, my superiors were under ever-increasing pressure from Democrat politicians to promote Democrat women and especially those who were minority, non-Protestant, non-German American, and/or had ancestors who had not been in America for a long time. All my coworkers who were the aforesaid and who my superiors promoted over me had less work experience than I had, had less education than I had, had no professional certifications or fewer than I had, and/or had no professional license like the one I had.

— My critics/opponents have always dismissed/belittled/badmouthed the jobs that I had while I attended Crete-Monee High School 1962-1966, UIC 1966-1968, and NIU 1969-1970. I did yard work 1962-1964. I delivered newspapers 1962-1966. I washed dishes 1964-1966. I cleaned golf shoes, chipped slag, and pumped gasoline in 1966. I delivered mail 1966-1969. I worked on an automobile assembly line in 1970. According to my critics/opponents, my taking those jobs proved that I am a loser.

— Public higher education is essential to training our future workforce (COMMENT: Under the Democrats and under the RINOs, because of their Affirmative Action and DEI, that is, because of their race and gender based preference giving, that is, because of their patronage, political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, age discrimination, religious discrimination, and national origin discrimination, fewer and fewer and fewer high school students who are the following seek college degrees: Republican, White, male, Protestant, German American, and/or have ancestors who have been in America for a long time. They see that under the Democrats and under the RINOs, the likelihood of their getting hired for jobs that require college degrees is less and less and less. After I graduated from NIU with a bachelor’s degree in management in 1970, it took me 10 months to get a job that required a college degree, and I got that job because the Democrats who ran IRS could not find a qualified Democrat, minority, female, veteran, non-Protestant, non-German American, and/or someone who had ancestors who had not been in America for a long time who would take the job. None of my IRS coworkers had master’s degrees in business. IRS would not have promoted me in 1972, 1973, or 1974 if I had not been taking graduate evening business courses at Loyola. Further, under the Democrats and under the RINOs, Democrat and RINO employers ever-increasingly view degrees from non-Ivy League universities as being worthless. So unless you can get a degree from an Ivy-League university, you are discouraged from trying to get one at all. My Democrat IRS and then GAO superiors ever-increasingly viewed as being worthless my aforesaid bachelor’s degree, my 1976 MBA from Loyola, my 1980 master’s degree in accounting from DePaul, and my 1997 IIT master’s degree in financial markets and trading.)

— Democrat leaders ever-increasingly use Vance’s wife against Republicans
https://www.centralillinoisproud.com/news/national/ap-is-usha-vances-hindu-identity-an-asset-or-a-liability-to-the-trump-vance-campaign/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Usha Chilukuri Vance loves her “meat and potatoes” husband, JD Vance. She explained to a rapt Republican National Convention audience how their vice-presidential candidate adapted to her vegetarian diet and even learned to cook Indian food from her immigrant mother. That image of her white, Christian husband making the spicy cuisine of her parents’ native state in South India is atypical for the leaders of a party whose members are still largely white and Christian. Her presence at the RNC sparked enthusiasm on social media among some Indian American conservatives, particularly Hindu Americans, although most Indian Americans identify as Democrats. But for all Usha Vance shared about their identity-blending marriage in her speech last month in Milwaukee, which was a little over four minutes, she made no mention of her Hindu upbringing or her personal faith and their interfaith relationship – biographical details that have exposed her to online vitriol and hate.)

As Democrats move in, poverty and crime increase. Of course, hate-filled conservative-hating conservative-haters blame Trump for that.

Instead of studying, I washed dishes while I was in high school and I delivered mail while I was in college. Consequently, my ACT score was lower and my GPAs were lower.

GOPUSA ILLINOIS
— Pot is poison. I led the successful effort to stop the sale of pot in Wheaton. Virtually all my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes a) have used pot, b) are using pot, c) want to use pot, and/or d) want to make money selling pot. I have never used pot and I never will. I have always vehemently opposed pot. If I had been a pot user, I would not have graduated in the upper 20% of my high school class, my ACT score would have been lower, and UIC would not have accepted me in 1966. I would not have earned a bachelor’s degree from NIU in 1970 and master’s degrees from Loyola in 1976, DePaul in 1980, and IIT in 1997. The Post Office would not have hired me in 1966, IRS in 1971, and GAO in 1980, and if they had hired me, IRS would not have promoted me in 1972, 1973, and 1974 and GAO would not have promoted me in 1986. I would not have passed on my first attempt the CPA examination in 1979 and the Certified Internal Auditor examination in 1981. I would not have become a licensed CPA in 1981, Certified Fraud Examiner in 1990, Certified Government Financial Manager in 1994, Certified Financial Services Auditor in 1996, and Forensic Accountant in 1997. – Dave Diersen

I earned a job-related professional license (CPA) when I was 32. I worked for the Democrats who ran GAO 1980-1997. The head of GAO during that time, Charles Bowsher, was not a CPA and he was not a licensed CPA like I was.

— Time for Never Trumpers to Drop their Conservative Charade – Rick Manning (COMMENT: I should write about the biggest Never Trumpers in Illinois, DuPage County, Milton Township, and Wheaton. I would focus on those who have taken the most/biggest adverse actions against me since 2015.)
https://dailytorch.com/2024/08/time-for-never-trumpers-to-drop-their-conservative-charade/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Kamala Harris, the Democratic Party nominee, is the most liberal nominee for president in history. She has ardently supported Medicare for All, also known as a complete federal government takeover of health care, even though she has tried to walk it back in this election cycle. Philosophically, self-proclaimed conservatives have argued vehemently against this policy and the experience of Covid should have given the practical reasons to back the rhetoric. She is on record as opposing hydraulic fracturing and the Biden-Harris energy policy is one that makes the country more dependent upon electricity generation while ending the most reliable sources to generate electricity. With the  key Electoral College state Pennsylvania being a major economic beneficiary of fracking Harris now claims to be against banning the process. GOP “leaders” claim to oppose the Green New Deal destruction of fossil fuels generation, and pretend to understand that reliance on unreliable sources of energy puts our nation at risk. She has proposed price controls on food as a solution to inflation. You can’t find a single conservative leader in America who believes that the government can do a better job of pricing commodities than the market, and that food price controls don’t mean food shortages. Not even the Washington Post thinks this emphasis on price “gouging” is a good idea. Kamala Harris is an abortion extremist who as the California Attorney General raided the home of an independent journalist who uncovered an elaborate business venture by Planned Parenthood to market and sell baby body parts from aborted children.  Kamala Harris did not prosecute Planned Parenthood, but the journalist who uncovered and videotaped the sickening practice of selling off body parts as if aborted children were human parts manufacturers. On taxes, she has embraced taxing unrealized capital gains. An example of an unrealized capital gain would be to impose a tax on a homeowner on any appreciation of the value of their home even though that money is only a paper gain and not in their bank account. Also, the Tax Foundation found that Harris’ pledge to end the Trump tax cuts will mean a tax increase for most Americans. In fact, the bottom half of taxpayers would have their average tax rate raised to 4 percent from the current 3.4 percent.  Married couples with two children making a joint income of $85,000 a year would see their taxes go up by $1,661 a year, the equivalent of almost 2 percent of their entire pre-tax salary for the year.  And of course, the Biden border Czarina Harris has seen 10 million illegals encountered at the border since she was given stewardship of the border crisis by President Biden. Note that this does not include the estimated 2 million illegals who got away after being observed by the Border Patrol. It is so bad that Harris is trying to deny any part in the Biden border fiasco, but not even Google can make the news clips of her appointment go away. It is really hard to find a screwball, California idea that Harris hasn’t supported, including banning gasoline powered cars, which the Biden-Harris administration would put out of business by 2037, two years after California banned them. All of this does not even include the Biden-Harris weaponization of the Justice Department and intelligence agencies against their political opponents, the on-going censorship and manipulation of social media platforms to promote the left’s political agenda, or her adamant opposition to the Second Amendment. In fact, it is hard to find a part of the Constitution that Harris actually supports. Given the above, any person who endorses Kamala Harris for president can no longer call themselves a conservative in any way, shape or form. They are not. They are massive government enablers unable to get over the fact that Donald Trump defeated them in a primary election in 2016 and again in the primary of 2024. The question that the Liz Cheneys of the world need to answer is whether they were lying when they claimed to be pro-life, support free markets, lower taxes, less federal government control, gun rights, energy independence and the basic freedoms guaranteed in the Constitution. Even those with the worst cases of Trump Derangement Syndrome should be able to look at the policies of Kamala Harris and reject them outright. Those with the worst cases have the option of voting third party – maybe the pot party (err, the Libertarian Party) is high enough to earn your vote. But endorsing Kamala Harris is admitting that everything you said was important no longer matters, and that you support the likely final stage of the fundamental transformation of America because … Donald Trump. I can no longer take those seriously who have embraced the New Age Harris who rejects constitutional governance in her musings about being unburdened by the past The very soul of America is at stake, and there is no room in the fight to preserve the freedoms enshrined in the Constitution and the ideal that all are created equal endowed by our Creator with certain unalienable rights for those who would sacrifice our fundamental liberties because they don’t like mean tweets. Now, more than ever, in the words of Ronald Reagan, this is our time for choosing.)

— Supreme Court Refuses to Reinstate $475 Billion Student Loan Relief Program. The Eighth Circuit Court of Appeals temporarily blocked the program. – Matthew Vadum (COMMENT: I did not get a college loan. If I had, I would have studied more instead of working all the part-time hours that I could while I attended UIC 1966-1968 and NIU 1969-1970 and my GPA would have been much higher. That would helped me get a better job faster after I graduated.)

NATIONAL REVIEW
— White Undergrads Sue Department of Education for Racial Discrimination in Scholarship Program. – DAVID ZIMMERMANN (COMMENT: What are your demographics? In what ways are those who share your demographics underrepresented? I am conservative. Ever-increasingly, those who are conservative are underrepresented in America, in Illinois, in DuPage County, in Milton Township, in Wheaton, and in School District 200. Ever-increasingly, those who are conservative are underrepresented in the Republican National Committee, Illinois Republican Party, DuPage County Republican Central Committee, and Milton Township Republican Organization.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: The Department of Education is accused of discriminating against two white college students who did not meet the racial requirements for one of its top scholarship programs in a new lawsuit filed by a conservative law firm. The Wisconsin Institute for Law and Liberty (WILL) announced on Wednesday that the Department of Education is being sued for its Ronald E. McNair Post-Baccalaureate Achievement Program, which excludes applicants who are not from “underrepresented segments of society.”)
— You Can Get through College without Debt. – GEORGE LEEF (COMMENT: I had to work my way through college and I did. I graduated debt-free from NIU in 1970 and owning a 1969 Dodge Charger SE. To ignore/dismiss/belittle/badmouth that, my critics/opponents have always stressed that I only just barely made it into the upper 20% of my high school class, that my ACT score was only 24, that I got no scholarships, that my GPA was not that great, and that NIU is not Ivy League. In my defense, I stress that my GPA suffered because instead of studying, I worked all the part-time hours that could washing dishes while I was in high school and delivering mail while I was in college. But I acknowledge that could have a) worked fewer hours, b) earned less money, and c) not bought a new 1966 Pontiac Tempest Sprint in 1966, a new 1968 Oldsmobile 442 in 1967, and a new 1969 Dodge Charger SE in 1968.)
