CHICAGO TRIBUNE
— Officials clarify Joliet police chief firing, give ultimatum – ALICIA FABBRE
(COMMENT: In 1997, when I was 49 years old, my Democrat GAO superiors hinted that they might let me work for another 6 years when I would then be eligible for regular retirement if I would happily agree to be constructively downgraded and a) happily agree to work for my Black subordinate or b) happily agree to be transferred to another audit group. I had been assigned to the group that audits federal financial industry regulators since 1990. I had earned a master’s degree in financial markets and trading from IIT earlier in 1997. I had become a Certified Financial Services Auditor in 1996.)
https://www.chicagotribune.com/news/ct-joliet-police-chief-asked-to-resign-20211009-d46ei3yzafcn5hpkr6iq562sta-story.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Ousted Joliet police Chief Dawn Malec was given the option to resign from city employment entirely or face firing after being removed from the top job Wednesday — a move she said she won’t make. In a letter, hand-delivered to Malec’s home hours after City Manager Jim Capparelli informed her she was out as chief, Capparelli clarified his earlier action, saying her termination was only for her role as police chief. The letter states that Malec has “not attained eligibility to retire on full pension, and therefore will be returned to (her) rank of lieutenant, effective immediately.” In the letter, Capparelli offered her the option of resigning from the department by 5 p.m. Friday. If not, he warned, she could be fired.)

(COMMENT: In 2015, Democrat plants and RINOs redrew my DuPage County Milton Township Precinct 9 in Wheaton and put me in the same precinct with Jeanne Ives. I should write a book about that.)
https://www.dailyherald.com/news/20211011/dupage-county-board-members-at-odds-over-redistricting-as-deadline-looms
(FROM THE ARTICLE: “I would like to see alternative maps using traditional redistricting parameters, taking out incumbency requirements,” Chavez wrote in an email. Zay said there are no incumbency requirements, but that officials try not to draw county board members and forest preserve commissioners out of their districts “if at all possible.” “But again, that wasn’t an objective of it,” Zay said. “Ours was to keep that deviation of the districts under 1% and to make communities contiguous and whole if we could, and that’s what we did.”)

— Liz Cheney, 9 other House Republicans voted to impeach Trump: Who do they face in 2022 midterms? – Rachel Looker
https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/politics/2021/10/11/house-republicans-vote-impeach-trump-who-they-face-2022/5833206001/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Rep. Adam Kinzinger, R-Ill. Kinzinger responded to Gonzalez’s decision to not seek reelection in a video posted to Twitter. “Now the pundits and politicos are discussing whether this means that Trump won, so let me answer this question. Yes, as of now, Trump is winning,” he said. “Not because Anthony [Gonzalez] decided not to run, but because so many in the Republican party decided to stay silent.” Kinzinger said his GOP colleagues watched from the sidelines and lacked the courage to speak out following the events from Jan. 6. “The future of the party and politics in this country doesn’t rest on the 10 of us. It rests on the courage of the 180 others who have been silent so far. To my GOP colleagues, the time is now to speak up,” he added. Kinzinger, who represents northern Illinois, is one of two Republicans to serve on the bipartisan Jan. 6 committee to investigate the attack on the Capitol. In a New York Times guest essay, Kinzinger said he is on the commission to get answers to questions about misinformation campaigns, lies perpetuated by Trump and other leaders and investigate the motivations of those who stormed the Capitol. Kinzinger has been a consistent critic of Trump, most recently calling him a “snowflake” and “one of the weakest men I’ve ever seen” on CNN following the former president’s response to President George W. Bush’s 9/11 speech on violent extremism. Kinzinger has raised nearly $1.9 million for the 2021-2022 election cycle, according to OpenSecrets. However, Politico reported a new congressional map may eliminate Kinzinger’s district. That could leave Kinzinger with the option to face an incumbent in a different district. Despite reports the district may be eliminated, seven other Republican challengers have filed with the FEC to run for Kinzinger’s seat. One challenger, Catalina Lauf, is a former Department of Commerce advisor under Trump. She received the endorsement of Rep. Madison Cawthorn, R-N.C., in July. Lauf unsuccessfully ran for a Congress seat in 2020. In a social media video announcing her campaign, Lauf called Kinzinger a “weak-kneed, establishment Republican who cares more about his next MSNBC appearance than the voters who elected him.” Lauf has raised over $350,000 for the 2021-2022 election cycle.)

— Trump-backed candidates face scrutiny after minimal vetting – AP
(COMMENT: Government is nasty. Politics is nasty. Needless-to-say, if you have ever done anything that subjects you blackmail, you should not seek or hold any kind of government or political office. The aforesaid is especially true if you paint yourself as being religious, conservative, and/or Republican. You should expect that sooner or later, your critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes will use your demographics and everything that you did or did not do against you. If you are White, they will paint you as being a White supremacist, Nazi, KKK member, and racist. If you are male, they paint you as being a sexist. If you are older, they will paint you as being senile. If you are heterosexual, they will paint you as being a bigot and a LGBTQ-hater. If you are married, they will paint you as being someone who enslaves and abuses their spouse. If you are Italian American or German American, they will ascribe negative stereotypes of those national origins to you. If you are Christian, they will paint you as being someone who hates non-Christians. If you are Protestant, they will paint you as being someone who hates non-Protestants. If your ancestors have been in America for a long time, they will paint you as being someone who has benefited tremendously from their discrimination against minorities and against females. If you are not poor, they will paint you as being someone who had rich parents. If you are a Trump supporter, conservative, and/or Republican, they will negatively paint you as being all of the aforesaid.)

(COMMENT: When did you graduate from college and what was the job market like then? I graduated from NIU in August of 1970 with a bachelor’s degree in management. Employers were under increasing pressure to hire minorities, females, and veterans. Employers saw me as being draft bait. They did not believe that my application for a financial hardship draft deferment would be approved. I accepted the only job offer that I got, to be the Retail Sales Manager in Firestone’s Chicago Heights store. The job did not really require a bachelor’s degree. Immediately after my application was approved in February of 1971, Oldsmobile offered me a job that I accepted. That resulted in my Firestone Store boss rudely firing me. But Oldsmobile withdrew its job offer saying that it had just agreed to stop hiring Whites to settle an EEOC complaint. That resulted in my accepting a job offer from IRS.)

I would focus on those who promote hatred against Whites who are Trump supporters, conservative, patriotic, Republican, American, male, older, heterosexual, married, non-poor, gun owners, Christian, Protestant, Italian American, German American, and/or those whose ancestors have been in America for a long time.)

— COMMENT: While I worked for the federal government for almost 30 years, I was extremely reluctant to seek advice and to take advice from my superiors because they were under tremendous pressure from Democrat politicians to get rid of their employees who shared my demographics. Further, I knew that my Democrat superiors would advise me to do things that I would not do, namely, become a Democrat, help them get rid of their employees who shared my demographics, promote the Democrat Party platform, promote political affiliation discrimination, promote reverse discrimination, promote age discrimination, etc. Instead, I took my own advice and 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.

He said the 11-district map would dilute Crete’s representation in favor of people who “don’t even have any concept of where we’re at in regards to the general geography of Will County.”)

Democrats a) have declared a Second Civil War on Republicans and b) see refugees as being their soldiers in their army to get rid of Republicans once and for all.)

NIU TODAY
— New policies help bring diversity to incoming class
(COMMENT: I transferred from UIC to NIU in January of 1969 when I was 20 years old. If I was a 20 year old UIC student today, I doubt that NIU would admit me. My demographics are terrible. I am White, male, conservative, Republican, baptized, raised, and confirmed as a Missouri Synod Lutheran, 100% German national origin, my parents were not poor, and my ancestors have been in America since 1844. When NIU accepted me, I had been a part-time Park Forest Post Office employee since November of 1966, I had no debts, I owned a 1969 Dodge Charger SE, and I had a student draft deferment. I had just made it into the upper 20% of my 1966 Crete-Monee High School class and my ACT was only 24.)
https://www.niutoday.info/2021/10/04/new-policies-help-bring-diversity-to-incoming-class/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: In its first full year of utilizing test-free criteria for admissions and merit scholarships, NIU has attracted the most diverse incoming class in university history. Nearly 70% of all incoming freshmen identify as persons of color, with 38% identifying as Black, 21.5% as Hispanic, 4% as Asian and 6% as “other.” The remaining 30% identified as white. Among incoming students, 57% were the first in their family to attend college. “As a university that is committed to equity and inclusion, we are thrilled that we are becoming an institution of choice for all students,” said NIU President Dr. Lisa C. Freeman. “This demonstrates that our efforts to make NIU accessible and affordable to all students are working. A diverse campus is a healthier, more vibrant campus, so we want a student body that reflects the demographics of the region we serve – in terms of race, gender and socio-economic background.”)

POLITICO ILLINOIS
— State Sen. Darren Bailey clobbers his opponents in the GOP primary race for governor, according to a Republican-focused poll obtained by Playbook. The five-question survey was conducted by Ogden & Fry Sunday and Monday among 404 respondents “selected by random sampling of likely Republican primary voters.” The margin of error for the poll is +/- 4.98 percent. Asked if the primary were held today, 33 percent of respondents said they would vote for Bailey, compared to 6 percent for entrepreneur Jesse Sullivan, 5 percent for businessman Gary Rabine, and 3 percent for former state Sen. Paul Schimpf. Nearly 50 percent, however, are undecided. The poll also backs up familiar conservative GOP themes. Respondents support masks being optional in schools (88 percent) to combat Covid-19 compared to 12 percent who back mandates. And the poll shows Republican respondents still view former President Donald Trump favorably, 86.6 percent to 13.1 percent. The poll followed the well-funded but little known Sullivan already coming out with TV ads for the June 2022 primary to determine who will take on Democratic Gov. J.B. Pritzker. – Shia Kapos

https://www.dailysignal.com/2021/10/04/conservative-activist-calls-out-facebook-for-suppressing-content/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: For more than a decade, Texas native Don Kirchoff has used Facebook to share news and information with fellow conservatives. The longtime Heritage Foundation supporter and Heritage Action Sentinel frequently posts articles from The Daily Signal as well as content from other conservative organizations and media outlets. But is anyone seeing them? Many of Kirchoff’s Facebook posts have zero likes or comments, prompting him to take his case directly to Facebook. While that worked in the past, he has noticed the problem more often. Kirchoff captured screenshots and shared them with The Daily Signal, which is Heritage’s multimedia news organization, as well as Facebook. He joins “The Daily Signal Podcast” to explain the situation and raise awareness for other conservatives.)

FAST COMPANY
— How to make a career change without leaving your current company. Making a lateral move to a different department or function can allow you to explore a new opportunity without having to start over completely. – STEPHANIE VOZZA
(DIERSEN: GAO audits IRS. When I transferred from IRS to GAO in 1980 when I was 31 years old, my Democrat GAO superiors, supervisors, coworkers, and subordinates did not want me to transfer, but failing that, they wanted me to transfer as a GS-4 Step 1 (currently $34,956/year) intern, that is, to suffer a $62,439/year (64%) pay cut in today’s dollars. They painted what GAO Analysts do as being a unique “trade or occupation.” They would not have done that if I had been a Democrat, minority, female, or veteran. They viciously demonized, denigrated, and condemned the fact a) that I had worked for IRS as a Revenue Officer for almost 9 years, the last 5 1/2 years of which at the GS-12 Step 1-5 levels, currently $85,935-$97,395/year, b) that much of what IRS Revenue Officers do is similar to what GAO Analysts do, c) that I had passed the CPA examination on my first attempt in 1979, d) that I had earned an MBA from Loyola in 1976, and e) that I had almost completed the requirements for a master’s degree in accounting from DePaul. They were furious a) that I suffered a pay cut of only $20,361/year (21%) in today’s dollars to transfer and b) that I transferred with me almost 12 years of federal seniority, 30 days of unused vacation days, and 130 unused sick days.)

CHICAGO TRIBUNE
— Vietnam’s class war and our wars – DAVID PAUL KUHN
(DIERSEN: What was the biggest mistake that you have made in your life? For me, it was my avoiding the draft. I got student draft deferments 1966-1971 and a financial hardship draft deferment 1970-1971. I should write a book about those who have used my avoiding the draft against me the most. I would focus on the adverse actions that a) my Democrat Post Office superiors 1966-1969, b) my Democrat Firestone superior 1970-1972, c) my Democrat IRS superiors 1971-1980, and d) my Democrat GAO superiors 1980-1997 took against me.)
https://www.chicagotribune.com/opinion/commentary/ct-opinion-vietnam-class-war-college-deferments-20211001-imtjszj7wnfuze3kjxgiz5p3oy-story.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: A half-century ago, the cruelest case of legalized class privilege in modern American life was abolished. For America’s “fortunate sons” and future leaders, attending college was such a common route to avoid the Vietnam draft, though the policy’s inequity is now conveniently relegated to the footnotes of that fraught era. Unlike any war since the Civil War, Vietnam asked the least of those who came from more. The war’s unjust burden combined with how the anti-war movement manifested on college campuses — especially elite campuses — led Vietnam to play an early role forming a class and cultural fault line that severs us still. Most of the era’s youth who came to lead us had a student deferment — including Presidents Joe Biden, Donald Trump and Bill Clinton and Vice President Dick Cheney. Other privileged sons, such as President George W. Bush, avoided combat by attaining a coveted National Guard slot. Educational deferments were the lion’s share of the more than 15 million men who legally evaded conscription. College graduates were roughly 6.5 times less likely to serve in Vietnam than other civilians of the same generation. (High school dropouts were twice as likely.) Fewer than a fifth of those with a student deferment came from modest circumstances. By comparison, 7 of 8 protesters in this era had at least one year of higher education. A century after elites lawfully avoided the Union and Confederate drafts, there was again an understanding that only a certain sort did most of America’s fighting and dying in war. As Vietnam escalated in 1967, a majority of male collegians — and half of all students — considered themselves a war “hawk,” but two-thirds of them objected to “the same proportion of college students” being drafted as non-college youth. Rifts within that ’60s generation lingered largely ignored while, polls show, the “generation gap” was overhyped. Blue-collar whites, in particular, were not more supportive of the war than upscale whites but they were exceptionally critical of the anti-war movement. It was their kin and kind shouldering the bulk of the fighting in Vietnam. Because the wealthy were almost exclusively white, white soldiers were “actually more likely than Black veterans to be drawn disproportionately from the working class,” as one study noted. In fact, from their sense of “lost status” to most veterans’ low opinion of “draft dodgers,” veterans’ views were more divided by class than by race. Many of them resented “good boys” marred by the “bad war” and campus activists who lectured those with less status about social justice, even as their college sanctuary meant lowlier boys might die in their place. After the war, James Fallows challenged the “bright people of my generation who made a cult of their high-mindedness” but “willingly took advantage of this most brutal form of class discrimination.” At Boston’s Navy Yard in 1969, Fallows saw his fellow Harvard and MIT students “deliberately failing (their) colorblindness tests,” even as the next bus of the “white proles of Boston” arrived. “We knew now who would be killed.” Yet here we are, recently witnessing the end of another war that went on too long and asked too much of too few. The soldiers of the Iraq and Afghanistan wars disproportionately hailed from veterans’ families and, as with Vietnam, rural areas. Today’s leaders hardly bat an eye at how the coastal enclaves that steward our politics, economics and culture contribute little per capita to the military power that, whatever its mistakes, helps secure their dominance. Our small warrior class does choose to enlist. Though circumstances impact that choice. Struggling youth often still risk the worst in war to get somewhere better in life. Yet most Americans who served and died in Vietnam were also volunteers. And conscription, however divisive, lessened the class divide. The potential to be drafted also invested America in the war’s tragedy, unlike our 9/11 wars. Still, even when the affluent served, they were the least likely to see combat. Draft resistance almost always paid off for those who could pay (for college or a draft-law lawyer). Occupational deferments favored upscale fields. This overall inequity sparked an under-discussed class war that boiled beneath the real war and exacerbated America’s emerging culture war. It also portended a working-class outlook that they bore unfair stigmas and unjust burdens. “The critics are picking on us, just ‘cause we had to fight this war. Where were their sons? In fancy colleges? Where were the sons of all the big shots who supported the war,” one Vietnam veteran asked in Murray Polner’s book “No Victory Parades.” “For every guy who resists the draft one of us gotta go.” After witnessing a protest, the veteran added: “One of their signs read: ‘We’ve already given enough.’ And I thought, ‘What have they given?’” Near the war’s end, David Broder read the book and wrote that it highlighted what we “prefer not to think about … the least democratic war of our century. There was no equality of sacrifice.” Fallows later asked, “Why … especially in the atmosphere of the late sixties, people with any presumptions to character could have let it go on?” And in some sense, why do we still?)
