— McDonald’s CEO faces growing criticism after gun victim text – AP
https://wgntv.com/news/mcdonalds-ceo-faces-growing-criticism-after-gun-victim-text/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Earlier this month, Kempczinski sent a note to McDonald’s corporate employees in the U.S., saying he was thinking through his “lens as a parent and reacted viscerally,” according to The Chicago Tribune. “But I have not walked in the shoes of Adam’s or Jaslyn’s family and so many others who are facing a very different reality,” he said. “Not taking the time to think about this from their viewpoint was wrong, and lacked the empathy and compassion I feel for these families. This is a lesson that I will carry with me.” McDonald’s has declined to comment to reporters. A message left Thursday for a spokesperson by the Associated Press was not immediately returned.)

— St. Louis County Council names certified public accountant as new auditor – Nassim Benchaabane (COMMENT: I should write a book about my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes who have belittled, dismissed, and badmouthed my work qualifications the most.

Her annual salary is $120,000. . .She has an accounting degree from Southern Illinois University Edwardsville. . .Missouri State Auditor Nicole Galloway recommended the council require the auditor be a certified public accountant, a certified internal auditor or a certified local government finance officer.)

— The RINO Traitors – Spencer Brown (COMMENT: Political parties exist to help elect candidates who can and will defend and advance their platform. The Republican Party platform is conservative. RINOs reject many, if not most, if not virtually all of the planks in the Republican Party platform. Most commonly, they reject the traditional marriage/family, right to life, immigration, illegal drugs, Second Amendment, and/or equal opportunity (no race or gender based preference giving) planks. RINOs destroy conservatives, that is, RINOs destroy platform Republicans, that is, RINOs destroy the Republican Party. I should write a book about the biggest RINOs in Illinois, DuPage County, Milton Township, and Wheaton since 2000.)

— A jury has awarded $2.75 million to an Arizona legislative staffer who said she was fired from her job as a policy adviser for state Senate Democrats because of discrimination based on her race and gender. – JONATHAN J. COOPER (COMMENT: If you read the documents filed in Diersen v. GAO, you will conclude that not only Democrat politicians, but also RINO politicians want patronage, political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, age discrimination, and retaliation. RINO politicians in Illinois reject the Rutan v. Republican Party of Illinois decision. My Democrat IRS and GAO superiors knew full-well a) that my wife had helped elect Jim Thompson and b) that Thompson promoted patronage and political affiliation discrimination. (SEE: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rutan_v._Republican_Party_of_Illinois and http://www.nytimes.com/1996/03/13/us/seeking-return-to-ways-of-patronage-in-politics.html ) Because of the position taken by the Republican Party of Illinois in Rutan, my U.S. Senators and their staff members and my U.S. Representatives and their staff members made it very clear that they did NOT want to hear my complaints about political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, age discrimination, and retaliation in the federal government.)

WATERLOO CEDAR FALLS COURIER
— Larger share of GOP voters cast ballots in Waterloo, though still outnumbered – Amie Rivers (DIERSEN: From what I see watching home purchases in my precinct since 1984, it ever-increasing looks like Democrat realtors steer homebuyers to my precinct who are Democrat, moderate, liberal, LGBTQ, non-Protestant, and/or non-German American. Ever-increasingly, it looks like Democrat realtors stress to potential homebuyers a) that ever-increasingly, Democrats get more votes in the precinct, for example, Biden got 269 votes while Trump got only 157, b) that there are LGBTQ-promoting churches immediately north and south of the precinct, c) that the Wheaton Warrenville School District 200 Administration Headquarters is in the precinct, and d) that a grade school and middle school are in the precinct.)

HAMILTON COUNTY REPORTER
— COMMENT: I have been a DuPage County Milton Township Republican Precinct Committeeman since 1999. I should write a book about leaders of the Illinois Republican Party, DuPage County Republican Central Committee, and Milton Township Republican Organization (MTRO) who want Republican Precinct Committeemen to only do what they tell them to do, no more, and no less. They do everything that they can to get rid of me because they did not tell me to do the following: a) send out GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters since 2000, b) raise money from DuPage Republicans so that DuPage Republicans could help sponsor Wheaton’s Independence Day parades and fireworks since 2005, c) oppose their gerrymandering my precinct in 2015, d) serve as the TAPROOT Republicans of Illinois chairman 2005-2012, e) serve as a Wheaton Chamber of Commerce Government Affairs Committee member 2003-2011, f) serve as the MTRO webmaster 2008-2010 and 2000-2004, g) serve as an Illinois Center Right Coalition (ICRC) Steering Committee member 2003-2007, h) oppose their efforts to get ICRC to censure me for my GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters in 2006, i) seek to serve as MTRO Treasurer in 2004, and j) serve as an American Association of Political Consultants Midwest Chapter board member 2001-2004.)

— Why Are People Really Quitting Their Jobs? – MARCEL SCHWANTES (COMMENT: I quit my Firestone Stores job in 1971 when I was 22 years old a) because I had accepted a job offer from Oldsmobile, b) because I saw my opportunities for advancement working for Firestone as being limited, c) because what I had learned earning a bachelor’s degree in management from NIU in 1970 as being wasted, d) because the job did not really require a college degree – I was required to spent too much time installing tires on cars and pumping gasoline, and e) because my boss disapproved of the fact that I had avoided the draft, that I was Protestant, and that I was 100% German American – Firestone’s District office hired me – he never would have hired me. He rudely fired me when I gave him my 2-week notice. But then, Oldsmobile withdrew its job offer and that directly resulted in my accepting a job offer from IRS.)

https://www.cnsnews.com/index.php/commentary/tony-perkins/rnc-weve-got-ticket-pride
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The Left must go to bed most nights thanking its lucky stars for the Republican Party. If it weren’t for some misguided GOP leaders, the Democratic Party would probably be well on its way to irrelevance in 2022. But instead of watching the other side pack its bags for the minority after last Tuesday’s drubbing, Republicans have decided to leave the door open a crack — first by voting for another $1.2 trillion dollars in unnecessary spending and now by throwing out the welcome mat to the one cause (apart from CRT) that’s swung parents to the GOP’s side: LGBT radicalism.)

POLITICO ILLINOIS
— In 2018, Pritzker spent $171 million of his personal fortune to unseat Rauner. Griffin donated $22.5 million to Rauner for that race, and millions more in his 2014 run for governor. In 2020, Griffin spent nearly $54 million to defeat the graduated income tax measure that Pritzker spent $58 million to support. Griffin’s spokesman confirmed his boss will bankroll a challenge to Pritzker. The four Republicans so far in the June 28 primary are state Sen. Darren Bailey, former state Sen. Paul Schimpf, businessman Gary Rabine, and venture capitalist Jesse Sullivan. The big question mark: Will Reps. Adam Kinzinger or Rodney Davis throw their hat in the ring? Either of them would likely get Griffin’s nod. Not on the list is Todd Ricketts. He just stepped down as Republican National Committee finance chair, but a source close to the Cubs co-owner said his exit from the RNC was long planned and that he is not making a play for the governor’s mansion. Democrats might like the idea of Griffin in the midterm mix. A race between Pritzker and anyone Griffin backs could energize the top of the ticket. No offense to the secretary of state candidates.- Shia Kapos

DUPAGE POLICY JOURNAL
— Open book: Salary of Glenbard Township High School District 87 teacher Kathy Holmberg (COMMENT: Since 1966, my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes have hinted/implied/argued/shouted that the federal government overpaid me. In today’s dollars, GAO paid me $132,845/year in 1997, IRS paid me $97,395/year in 1980, and the Post Office paid me $17.93/hour in 1969. In my defense, I earned a) a job-related bachelor’s degree when I was 21 in 1970 and job-related master’s degrees when I was 27, 31, and 48, b) job-related professional certifications when I was 30, 32, 41, 45, 47, and 48, and c) a job-related professional license when I was 32. Since 1997, my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes have hinted/implied/argued/shouted that my Civil Service Retirement System (CSRS) pension, currently $54,864/year, is too generous. In my defense, my CSRS pension is dramatically less because my Democrat GAO superiors forced me to take their early retirement “offer” in 1997 when I was 49 years old and took many adverse actions against me before that. Further, my Social Security should be $6,570/year. But it is only $2,190/year because I get a CSRS pension.)

NEW YORK TIMES
— Why Wokeness Will Fail – BRET STEPHENS (COMMENT: Ever-increasingly, to be woke is to be anti-law enforcement, anti-Trump, anti-conservative, anti-patriotic, anti-Republican, anti-American, anti-White, anti-male, anti-older people, anti-heterosexual, anti-traditional marriage/family, anti-non-poor people, anti-gun owners, anti-Christian, anti-Protestant, anti-Italian American, anti-German American, and/or anti-those whose ancestors have been in America for a long time.)
https://www.nytimes.com/2021/11/09/opinion/social-justice-america.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The problem with the allegation isn’t that it’s flatly wrong: America’s past is shot through with racism and, as Faulkner put it, “The past is never dead. It’s not even past.” But the allegation is also incomplete, distorted, ungenerous to former generations that advanced America’s promise, and untrue to the country most Americans know today. Wokeness operates as if there had been no civil rights movement, and that white Americans hadn’t been an integral part of it. It operates as if 60 years of affirmative action never happened, and that an ever-growing percentage of Black Americans don’t belong to the middle and upper class (and that they are, incidentally, concentrated in the American South). It operates as if we didn’t twice elect a Black president and recently bury a Black general as an American icon. It operates as if, in city after city, American police forces aren’t led by Black police chiefs and staffed by officers of diverse backgrounds. It operates as if white supremacy is still being systemically enforced, while ignoring the fact that a previously marginalized ethnic minority, namely Asian Americans, enjoys higher income levels than white Americans. Above all, Wokeness pretends that incidents such as George Floyd’s murder, which are national scandals, are actually national norms. They aren’t, despite current injustices. Most Americans, I suspect, not only sense the falseness of the allegation. They are, increasingly, insulted by it. The insult turns to injury when it comes to the solutions Wokeness prescribes, and in the way that it prescribes them. This doesn’t just mean efforts like “abolish the police” that are so baldly destructive that voters quickly sense their danger. It’s in subtler prescriptions, too.)

AUSTIN AMERICAN STATESMAN
— Democrats must confront their privilege – David Brooks (COMMENT: I should write a book about the success that Democrats and RINOs have had in taking over DuPage County, Milton Township, and Wheaton. Their success was shown last year by their tremendous promotion of LGBTQ in downtown Wheaton. Their success was show this year by their stopping Republicans from helping sponsor Wheaton’s Independence Day parade and fireworks.)
https://www.statesman.com/story/opinion/2021/11/09/brooks-democrats-must-confront-their-privilege/6337368001/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: One of the Democratic Party’s core problems is that it still regards itself mainly as the party of the underdog. But as the information-age economy has matured, the Democratic Party has also become the party of the elite, especially on the cultural front. Democrats dominate society’s culture generators: the elite universities, the elite media, the entertainment industry, the big tech companies, the thriving elite places like Manhattan, San Francisco and Los Angeles. In 2020, Joe Biden won roughly one-sixth of the nation’s counties, but together those counties generate roughly 71% of the nation’s GDP. As the Democrats have become more culturally and economically dominant, many people at tippy-top private schools and super-expensive colleges have flamboyantly associated themselves with the oppressed. Thankfully, that has moved society to more aggressively pursue social and racial justice. Unfortunately, a tacit ideology — sometimes called wokeness — has been grafted on to this pursuit. It includes the notions that society is essentially a zone of conflict between oppressor and oppressed groups, that a person’s identity is predominantly about group identity and that slavery is the defining fact of American history. Because they dominate the cultural commanding heights, including some departments of education and the largest teachers unions, progressive views permeate schools, museums, movies and increasingly the public stances of large corporations. The Republican Party, like many right-populist parties across the Western world, has become a giant vessel of resistance against cultural, urban and information-age elites. Glenn Youngkin, the Republican who was just elected governor of Virginia, expressed that resistance when he said, “I believe parents should be in charge of their kids’ education.” When Democrats seem to be magnifying the education establishment’s control of the classroom and minimizing the role of parents, there’s going to be a reaction. Some of the reaction is pure racism, but a lot of it is pushback against elite domination and the tacit ideology. The results of last Tuesday’s elections show again that resistance against the elites can be a powerful force propelling Republicans to victory. In the final weeks leading up to Youngkin’s victory, education became one of the top issues for Virginia voters. The results also put the Donald Trump phenomenon in a new perspective. Trump was necessary to smash the old GOP and to turn the party into a vanguard of anti-elite resistance. But by 2020, with his moral degradation and all the rest, he was also holding back Republicans. If Republicans can find candidates who oppose the blue oligarchy but without too much Trumpian baggage, they can win over some former Biden voters in places like Virginia and New Jersey. Democrats would be wise to accept the fact that they have immense social and cultural power, and accept the responsibilities that entails by adopting what I’d call a Whole Nation Progressivism. America is ferociously divided on economic, regional, racial and creedal lines. The job of leaders is to stand above these divides and seek to heal them. The job of leaders is not to impose their values on everyone else; it is to defend a pluralistic order in which different communities can work out their own values.)

They threw me off audits of IRS, they gave me bad job assignments, they gave me unfair performance expectations, they gave me unfair performance evaluations, they always ranked me in the bottom half of my coworkers for pay-for-performance purposes, and they forced me to take the early retirement “offer” in 1997 when I was 49 years old.)

DAILY HERALD
— Some ideas in the works for closing tax loopholes – Richard Keslinke, Algonquin (COMMENT: GAO audits IRS. I should write a book about those who did not want GAO to assign me to audits of IRS. When I transferred from IRS to GAO in 1980, I had worked for IRS for almost 9 years, the last 5 1/2 of which at the GS-12 Steep 1-5 Levels, currently $85,935-$97,395/year. I had passed the CPA examination on my first attempt in 1979. I had earned an MBA from Loyola in 1976. I had almost completed the requirements for a master’s degree in accounting from DePaul and I completed those requirements in 1980. I passed the Certified Internal Auditor examination on my first attempt in 1981. I became a licensed CPA in 1981. But those who did not want GAO to assign me to audits of IRS succeeded until 1986 when the GAO manager who had hired me got me assigned to audits of IRS and promoted me to GS-13, currently $102,188/year. But then, in 1987, those who did not want GAO to assign me to audits of IRS succeeded in forcing him to retire, and at the end of 1988, they succeeded in keeping me off audits of IRS for the rest of my GAO career and forced me to take their early retirement “offer” in 1997.)

— UChicago Professor Dorian Abbot’s MIT Lecture Canceled After DEI Opinions Spark National Controversy – Basil Egli
https://chicagomaroon.com/article/2021/11/8/uchicago-professors-mit-lecture-canceled-dei-opinions-spark/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Abbot has been a figure of national controversy since August, when he co-wrote the Newsweek article with Stanford University professor Iván Marinovic. The op-ed expressed concerns about the increasing emphasis on diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) in many colleges and universities. Such initiatives, Abbot and Marinovic argued, are made at the expense of academic excellence and merit, thus actively harming the value of American institutions. The op-ed compared the implementation of DEI curriculums to the rise of Nazi Germany, as “an ideological regime obsessed with race came to power and drove many of the best scholars out.” EAPS chair Robert van der Hilst cited this comparison as one of his key reasons for cancelling the lecture. The authors suggested that DEI should instead be replaced with another standard: Merit, Fairness, and Equality (MFE). The authors described MFE as a method, “whereby university applicants are treated as individuals and evaluated through a rigorous and unbiased process based on their merit and qualifications alone.”)

FORBES
— Time To Update Protections For Taxpayers – Marie Sapirie (COMMENT: GAO audits IRS. I should write a book about those who did not want GAO to assign me to audits of IRS. When I transferred from IRS to GAO in 1980, I had worked for IRS for almost 9 years, the last 5 1/2 of which at the GS-12 Steep 1-5 Levels, currently $85,935-$97,395/year. I had passed the CPA examination on my first attempt in 1979. I had earned an MBA from Loyola in 1976. I had almost completed the requirements for a master’s degree in accounting from DePaul and I completed those requirements in 1980. I passed the Certified Internal Auditor examination on my first attempt in 1981. I became a licensed CPA in 1981. But those who did not want GAO to assign me to audits of IRS succeeded until 1986 when the GAO manager who had hired me got me assigned to audits of IRS and promoted me to GS-13, currently $102,188/year. But then, in 1987, those who did not want GAO to assign me to audits of IRS succeeded in forcing him to retire, and at the end of 1988, they succeeded in keeping me off audits of IRS for the rest of my GAO career and forced me to take their early retirement “offer” in 1997.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: Funding proposals for implicit bias and antiracism training in schools are coming into focus and some see it as an unnecessary controversy that distracts from education in the state’s 850 districts. A draft proposal from the Illinois State Board of Education Professional Review Panel set to be considered next month contemplates how to spend an additional $350 million from the evidence based funding model that lawmakers approved several years ago. There are recommendations for a variety of programs, including teaching foreign languages. There are also suggestions for “interventions to have more explicit focus on racial dynamic, including equity direct approaches that offer concrete strategies for teachers’ behavioral changes in the classroom and increased bias awareness.” The draft proposals “recognize that students of color do not inherently need additional supports by nature of their race/ethnicity, but that these students do face inequities because of historical and existing structures, and there is a cost attendant with working to dismantle those inequities through training on antiracism and eliminating implicit bias within schools and districts.” To address that, the proposal adds “a specific Professional Development cost … related to implicit bias and antiracism at a fixed per-pupil cost based on overall enrollment, with additional per-pupil dollar amount for all students where a district serves over 50% non-white students.”)
