If there had been as many foreign-born workers in America when I was young, they would have gotten the jobs that I got or the wages that I got would have been much lower. I did yard work, delivered newspapers, washed dishes, cleaned golf shoes, chipped slag, pumped gasoline, and delivered mail. Those jobs enabled me to buy three new cars, pay for my college expenses, and graduate debt-free from NIU when I was 21 in 1970 owning a 1969 Dodge Charger SE.)

— Democrats say “How Trump and His Allies Plan to Wield Power in 2025.

Because females were dramatically underrepresented in the bad jobs that I had including GAO Analyst, IRS Revenue Officer, and postal employee, my Democrat superiors gave them tremendous preference and especially to those who were Democrat, minority, younger, veteran, non-Protestant, non-German American, and/or had ancestors who had not been in America for a long time.)

— These Gen Z employees have discovered the secret to getting a bigger raise—switch jobs. A growing crop of savvy younger workers are refusing to settle for modest cost-of-living wage increases. They say it’s all about knowing your marketplace value. – SHALENE GUPTA (COMMENT: In 1980 when I was 31 years old, because my Democrat IRS superiors had dramatically lowered my “market value” a) by not promoting me since 1974, b) by disallowing my travel vouchers in 1974, c) by disallowing my education deductions in 1978, and d) by ignoring, dismissing, and belittling my earning an MBA from Loyola in 1976 and my passing the CPA examination on my first attempt in 1979, I took a $21,863/year (21%) pay cut to transfer to GAO. I should write a book about that.)

NEW YORK MAGAZINE
— Trump Plans to Make Civil Service a MAGA Spoils System – Ed Kilgore (COMMENT: The top priority for my Democrat superiors in the federal government was hiring, retaining, and promoting Democrats, and especially those who were minority, female, younger, veteran, non-Protestant, non-German American, and/or had ancestors had not been in America for a long time. Consequently, their top priority was wasting the careers of and getting rid of their employees who were Republican, and especially those like me who were White, male, older, non-veteran, Protestant, German American, and/or had ancestors who had been in America for a long time. It is called political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, and age discrimination. I should write a book about that.)
https://nymag.com/intelligencer/2023/12/trump-plans-to-make-civil-service-a-maga-spoils-system.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: There have been many credible reports that a second Trump administration would feature an assault on the federal civil service system in order to reduce “deep state” resistance to his authoritarian ambitions — or to use his terms for it, to “drain the swamp” — while stuffing the higher levels of the federal bureaucracy with political appointees. Those of us who are history-minded have immediately thought of this as threatening a return to the “spoils system” of the 19th century, which was more or less ended by enactment of the Pendleton Civil Service Reform Act of 1883 (signed into law by Republican president and reformed spoilsman Chester Alan Arthur). But the more we know about Team Trump’s plans, this understanding of what they want to do in staffing the federal government is looking inadequate and anachronistic. The spoils system beneficiaries of the distant past were by and large party foot-soldiers rewarded for attending dreary local meetings, talking up the party’s candidates in newspapers and forums, and most of all getting out the vote on Election Day. No one much cared what they believed in their heart of hearts about issues of the day, or how they came to their convictions. It was enough that they put on the party yoke and helped pull the bandwagon to victory.)

— Chicago teen earns doctoral degree. A 17-year-old Chicago girl has just earned her doctorate. Dorothy Jean Tillman is now Dr. Dorothy Jean Tillman after she successfully defended her dissertation to earn a doctoral degree in Integrated Behavioral Health from Arizona State University. (COMMENT: Timing is everything. I did not earn my first master’s degree (MBA) until I was 27 in 1976. In retrospect, with benefit of hindsight, that was a big mistake. I took only one graduate evening business course at a time at Loyola starting when I was 23 in 1972 while I was an IRS employee. I should have taken two if not three if not four courses at a time, but my focus during that time was my new IRS job first in Harvey 1972-1973, then at 63rd & Halsted in Chicago 1973-1974, and then downtown Chicago starting in 1974. Further, I could have afforded to pay more tuition faster if I had not a) bought a new Corvette in 1971, b) bought a new town home in University Park in 1972, c) bought a studio condo in downtown Chicago in 1974, or d) bought a one bedroom condo in downtown Chicago in 1976. In today’s dollars, between 1972 and 1976, my IRS salary increased from $52,022/year to $98,431/year. Because I had not made GS-13 ($109,732/year in today’s dollars) by the time I was 25 in 1974, IRS wrote off as being much too old to have a successful IRS career.)

Douglass’ spending per student is up 20 percent this year, according to the state.)

THE HILL
— Trump widens lead over DeSantis in new national poll – JULIA MUELLER (COMMENT: I have been a DuPage County Republican Precinct Committeeman (RPC) since 1999. DuPage County RPCs are obligated to help elect those candidates who win Republican primary elections win general elections. I have always done that. But far too many DuPage County RPCs have not done that. Far too many of them destroy their fellow RPCs who did not support their candidates in primaries. I should write a book about those RPCs. I would start with those RPCs who supported Jim Ryan in the 2002 Republican gubernatorial primary. I would focus on those RPCs who did not support Trump in the 2016 or 2020 Republican primaries and are not supporting Trump in 2024 Republican primary. I would focus on those RPCs who have taken the most/biggest adverse actions against me.)

While I worked for the Democrats who ran IRS 1971-1980, I earned an MBA from Loyola in 1976 and I passed the CPA examination on my first attempt in 1979. My Democrat IRS superiors hinted/implied/argued/shouted that even though I had the aforesaid qualifications, because I was an extremely bad person (White supremacist, Nazi, KKK member, hater, racist, sexist, bigot, draft avoider, and even worse things), they had not promoted me beyond GS-12 and they had taken adverse actions against me in 1974 and 1978. While I worked for the Democrats who ran GAO 1980-1997, I earned a master’s degree in accounting from DePaul in 1980. I passed the Certified Internal Auditor examination on my first attempt in 1981. I became a licensed CPA in 1981. I became a Certified Fraud Examiner in 1990, Government Financial Manager in 1994, Financial Services Auditor in 1996, and Forensic Accountant in 1997. I earned a master’s degree in financial markets and trading from IIT in 1997. My Democrat GAO superiors hinted/implied/argued/shouted that because I was an extremely bad person, if I had not had the aforesaid qualifications, they would not had hired me, they would not have promoted me to GS-11, GS-12, or GS-13, they would have taken more adverse actions against me, and they would have forced me to take their early retirement “offer” when I was 45 in 1993 instead of 49 in 1997. My Democrat IRS and GAO superiors were extremely frustrated that I got married in 1978 and that I have stayed married ever since because that did not fit their extremely bad person argument. My Democrat GAO superiors were further frustrated that I served on the Executive Committee of the Association of Government Accountants Chicago Chapter 1983-1996 because that did not fit with their extremely bad person argument. To paint me as being an extremely bad person, my Democrat IRS superiors hinted/implied/argued/shouted that I lied to get a financial hardship draft deferment 1970-1971 and my Democrat GAO superiors hinted/implied/argued/shouted that I lied about wanting to have children and about what my wife and I had done to try to have children. I should write a book about the aforesaid. Better yet, I should sue my Democrat IRS and GAO superiors.)

The woke mayor also hit out at ‘right wing extremism’ he says is deliberately targeting a Democrat city run by a person of color. – ALICE WRIGHT

— Robert Jacobsen, DuPage County historian, canning industry executive, dies at 92 – Bob Goldsborough (COMMENT: I had the honor of serving with Jacobsen on the Milton Township Cemeteries Authority 2001-2004.)
https://www.chicagotribune.com/news/obituaries/ct-robert-jacobsen-obit-20231120-6jte4u4ygnftdpgzqad4v7k5yu-story.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: One of Jacobsen’s greatest achievements started about 2000, when he became the chairman of the newly formed Milton Township Cemeteries Authority. Under state law, townships have the right to declare cemeteries abandoned and then take control of them, and in the late 1990s, Milton Township, which includes unincorporated areas just outside Glen Ellyn, Wheaton and Carol Stream, formed a cemetery authority to take over and restore three abandoned cemeteries, Jewell Grove, Pleasant Hill and St. Stephen. Jacobsen recruited volunteers to help him restore the cemeteries, including clearing overgrowth, adding signage, fixing headstones and planting prairie grasses. Jacobsen also began holding annual family remembrance days at each cemetery. “Bob brought dignity and history to those families buried there,” said Wheaton Bank and Trust President Bob Hutchinson, a longtime friend and former neighbor. “He cared deeply about our local history and engaged with many stakeholders to preserve it.” “In these cemeteries are the pioneers that built our community,” Jacobsen told the Tribune in 2010. “I really believe in my heart that people in our community want to know about our history, and it’s just a question of how do you get them involved. The joy of this cemetery activity is that so many people have gotten involved, and so many people have supported a love of history. Volunteers can’t do it all, and you need institutions to lead the way for volunteers to step up.” Marty Keller, a former Milton Township trustee, called Jacobsen “a generational character who both accomplished much and inspired many.” “His dedication to preserving our history led him to write books, restore cemeteries and participate in countless Milton Township activities,” Keller said. “Bob reminded us that few things worth fighting for can be completed quickly. It takes time and commitment by many citizens to create a lasting impact. He was a warm and caring man who possessed a strength of character that will be greatly missed.” . . . Jacobsen also served as a Milton Township Republican committeeman.)

Because I have complained since the 1960s about patronage, political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, age discrimination, and up-or-out, those who I have complained about have retaliated against me severely. My Democrat Post Office superiors forced me to resign in 1969. My Democrat IRS superiors disallowed my travel vouchers in 1974, disallowed my education deductions in 1978, and never promoted me beyond GS-12. My Democrat GAO superiors forced me to take a 21% pay cut to transfer from IRS to GAO in 1980, delayed my promotions to GS-11, GS-12, and GS-13 and never promoted me beyond GS-13, always ranked me in the bottom half of my coworkers for pay-for-performance purposes, and forced me to take their early retirement “offer” in 1997 when I was 49 years old.)

According to my critics/opponents, all the many big adverse actions that my Democrat superiors took against me were absolutely justified. Further, according to them, instead of me, GAO, IRS, and the Post Office should hired those who were minority, female, younger, LGBTQ, veteran, non-Protestant, non-German American, and/or those whose ancestors have not been in America for a long time. Further, according to them, I was grossly overpaid because I should not have been promoted in 1972, 1973, 1974, or 1986. Further, according to RINOs, the federal government should be and it is the “employer of last resort” and it should be and it is the dumping ground for those who lack what it takes to succeed in the private sector.)

— Evanston School District Offers Classes Separated by Race to ‘Shrink Learning Gap’ – Laura Wellington
https://www.westernjournal.com/school-district-offers-classes-separated-race-shrink-learning-gap/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: To merely exist as a white person today is to hold black people and Latino people down. That is what the liberals and progressives want everyone to believe as they blame “whiteness” as the primary cause for the educational inequality in our nation. The fallacy is being escalated by Evanston Township High School located in Evanston, Illinois. New classes are being held that are reintroducing segregation into the school and our nation in a whole new way. The goal is to “shrink [the] learning gap” that is occurring between black, Latino, and white students, The Wall Street Journal reported. The cause of this gap is being blamed on the existence of whiteness in the school. Public school officials believe that whiteness is a distraction to black and Latino students. These students need it to go away in order to perform, I guess. As a result optional courses have been set up to exclude the white element. The fact that they are optional bypasses any legal issues that could arise due to antidiscrimination laws, according to education lawyers. Called affinity classes, 200 black and Latino kids have voluntarily signed up for math classes and a writing seminar made up of kids of a single race taught by a teacher of color, according to the Journal. These classes separate white students from black and Latino students. It’s a band-aid solution, in my opinion, much easier to latch onto than the actual root causes of black and Latino students’ under performance. Black and Latino parents and kids in the school district should be furious. These children are being sold short and set up to fail under the guise of eliminating prejudice. They are being excused from reality and the very field that will challenge them to achieve in a safe environment, so they can go out and successfully conquer the real, much tougher world. Unless, that is, the intent is to keep the black population and Latino population in their own boxes, away from their white counterparts and competition. They will forever trail behind as a result, in the name of social, cultural progress — elective enslavement as a result of being sold a bill of goods. We will also begin to reverse course on cultural acceptance at the hands of heightened inequality. This new format is a far cry from offering optional programs, like African American studies, from which all can benefit. This is blatant segregation and finger pointing towards the white population of students.)

Extremely few of my IRS and GAO coworkers passed the CPA examination and virtually none became licensed CPAs.)

— Over 20 Million Immigrants Are Set to Vote In 2024 – Sarah Arnold (COMMENT: How many illegals are set to vote for Democrats in your county, in your township, in your municipality, and in your precinct?)
https://townhall.com/tipsheet/saraharnold/2023/11/26/over-20-millions-immigrants-are-set-to-vote-in-2024-n2631633
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Since the 2020 election, several lawmakers have sounded the alarm that migrants may be voting in U.S. elections illegally. The worries are again ramping up as the 2024 presidential election nears the corner. According to an analysis from a Left-wing American Immigration Council, more than 23 million immigrants are set to vote in the upcoming election, revealing the electoral power of the United State’s annual importation of more than a million immigrants has given to naturalized citizens. “As more immigrants naturalize and become eligible to vote, they continue to gain political power,” the analysis states. “The number of immigrant voters is only projected to rise in the next decade, and in some states, foreign-born voters are already capable of deciding elections.” . . . The analysis comes at a time when President Joe Biden faces immense pressure to boost voter turnout ahead of the election. Rep. Mike Johnson (R-La.) warned that Biden wants to turn illegal migrants into Democrat voters— hence the reason the administration is looking the other way at one of the worst border crises of U.S. history. “The Biden administration has done this intentionally. [Department of Homeland Security] Secretary [Alejandro] Mayorkas has done this intentionally. For what reason? Everybody asks me all the time. I think that ultimately they hope to turn all these illegals into voters for their side,” Johnson said. “It sounds sinister, but there’s no other explanation for what’s happening down there. It’s an absolute humanitarian and now national security crisis — catastrophe really — and they could reverse it overnight if they wanted to, but they don’t.” Earlier this year, California considered a measure allowing non-citizens to vote in municipal elections. While Democrats advocate for more illegal aliens to be let into the country, Republicans argue such a measure would dilute the value of being an American citizen. New York City also considered a similar measure. However, the state Supreme Court struck it down. Meanwhile, some states, including Ohio, Alabama, Arizona, Colorado, Florida, Minnesota, and North Dakota, have banned noncitizen voting outright.)

— To meet Affirmative Action, Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion quotas, goals, and targets, accounting firms have always given preference to younger minorities and to younger women, that is, they have always discriminated against older Whites and older males. Accounting firms had absolutely no interest in me because I am a White male who did not a) take and pass the CPA examination until I was 30, b) become a licensed CPA until I was 32, c) take and pass the Certified Internal Auditor examination until I was 32, and d) become a Certified Fraud Examiner until I was 41, Government Financial Manager until I was 45, Financial Services Auditor until I was 47, and Forensic Accountant until I was 48. It is called up-or-out, reverse discrimination, and age discrimination.

My critics/opponents stress that I am conservative, Republican, White, male, old (born in 1948), non-veteran, non-poor, Protestant, 100% German American, and my ancestors have been in America since 1844. In my defense, I stress that all my ancestors have always lived in northeast Illinois and never discriminated against anyone.

The Democrats who ran GAO in 1980, IRS in 1971, Firestone Stores in 1970, and the Post Office in 1966 hired me because they could not find a qualified Democrat, minority, female, veteran, or younger person who would take the job.)

— The left points to free speech platforms to distract from its own antisemitism – Tim Murtaugh (COMMENT: I should write about antisemitism in GAO’s Chicago office. In 1990, to retaliate against me for being the office’s only active member in a class action lawsuit that charged them with reverse discrimination, age discrimination, and retaliation, my Democrat GAO superiors made it clear that they would never again assign me to audits of IRS. Because of the widespread antisemitism in the office, I got my second choice for group assignment – the group that audited federal financial industry regulators. Virtually none of my coworkers wanted to work for the Jewish woman who led that group. She was a GS-15, currently $152,527-$183,500/year. She had an MBA from the University of Chicago. She had passed the CPA examination on her first attempt. She was demanding. She was wealthy. She was attractive. She wanted all those who worked for her to have master’s degrees in finance. Because of that, I started taking graduate evening finance courses at IIT in 1992 and earned a master’s degree in financial markets and trading from IIT in 1997. I got her appointed to IIT’s board of advisors for that program. But nevertheless, in September of 1997, she led GAO’s success effort to force me to take early retirement. She gave my job and my preferred corner office to my Black subordinate. I should write a book about the aforesaid.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: If the last couple of months have shown us anything about American politics it’s that there’s a sizeable antisemitism problem in the Democratic Party, which has been exposed and highlighted as the party fractures over the Israel-Hamas war. Some Democrats in Congress openly side with Hamas, the terrorist organization which launched a brutal assault on Israeli civilian targets on October 7. Hundreds of Democrat staffers on Capitol Hill, somehow under the impression that their opinions matter, have demanded that their bosses support a “ceasefire,” which is a different way of saying that Israel must simply absorb all Hamas attacks. Dozens of leftist agitators have laid siege to Democratic National Committee headquarters, demanding that the Biden administration side with Hamas as well. And you probably can’t be a member of the College Democrats these days unless you’ve recently marched in a protest against Israel. There is indeed an antisemitism problem in this country, and the loudest voices are coming from within the Democratic Party. It’s not surprising, then, that the political left wants to change the focus and accuse someone else of being anti-Jew for a while.)

If so, have you considered moving because of that? If so, where have you considered moving to? Republicans create prosperity and safety. Democrats create poverty and crime. Anticipate/expect that Democrats will move into Republican areas to hypocritically take advantage of the prosperity and safety that Republicans created there. That is increasingly happening in DuPage County, Milton Township, Wheaton, Wheaton Warrenville School District 200, and my precinct. I should wire a book about that. The Democrat Party platform promotes dependency on government and charity, LGBTQ, abortion, mass/illegal immigration, booze, gambling, pot, and other vices, diminishment of Second Amendment rights, patronage, political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, and age discrimination.

There are 370 registered Republican voters in that precinct. So far, I have gotten signatures on my nominating petitions from 22 of them. So far, I have hand-delivered my precinct letter to the residences that have at least one Republican voter in the northern half of the precinct and to about half of those residences in new southern half. Of the residences in the northern half, about half of them were in my old Precinct 9 since 1999 and about half were in that precinct 1999-2015.

https://townhall.com/tipsheet/saraharnold/2023/11/22/tucker-carlson-issues-a-grim-warning-for-the-us-in-2024-n2631558
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Tucker Carlson is issuing a grave warning for the United States in 2024 as the presidential election looms. While speaking at the Risk On 360! Global Success Conference in Las Vegas, Carlson painted a grim picture of what the election year may bring as he revealed his concerns about the deepening division and paranoia among Americans. The 2024 election will be “like nothing we’ve ever seen,” Carlson said amid the promising look that former President Trump will be the GOP nominee— something the Democratic Party has fought long and hard to prevent. Examining the current political and cultural landscape, the conservative commentator said that there is no positive outcome in the U.S. of the progressive Leftist policies that have brainwashed and plagued millions of Americans. “There is no upside to the great trends of our age. There’s no upside to pushing transgenderism on kids. Period. None. Not for the kid, not for the society at large, not for the parents who will never have grandchildren,” Carlson said. The ominous warning Carlson gave should send shivers down every American’s spine. Alluding that the U.S. will push past its limits during the next election cycle, he urged people to stay strong and continue to speak the truth even when it is polarizing or difficult.)

— Macy’s Hit by Legal Action Before Thanksgiving Day Parade – Khaleda Rahman (COMMENT: My critics/opponents have always promoted patronage, political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination. and age discrimination. I should write a book about my critics/opponents.)
https://www.msn.com/en-us/money/companies/macy-s-hit-by-legal-action-before-thanksgiving-day-parade/ar-AA1klucy
(FROM THE ARTICLE: A conservative legal group headed by Stephen Miller, a former White House advisor to Donald Trump, has accused Macy’s of implementing a racially discriminatory diversity plan. America First Legal filed a federal civil rights complaint with the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) on Tuesday, according to a press release. The complaint alleges Macy’s is “intentionally and systemically” violating Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964’s prohibition on race discrimination, citing a five-point diversity plan that the retailer released in 2019. Newsweek has contacted Macy’s for comment via email. This article will be updated if a response is received. Macy’s plan instructed management to achieve “more ethnic diversity by 2025 at senior director level and above, with a goal of 30 percent,” and create a 12-month program to “designed to strengthen leadership skills for a selected group of top-talent managers and directors of Black/African-American, Hispanic-Latinx, Native American and Asian descent,” the group said in its letter to the EEOC. AFL alleged that Macy’s quotas are “patently illegal” and that the retailer “has only reinforced its commitments to recruitment and hiring policies that likely violate federal law” in the past year. In the letter, AFL asked EEOC to file a “commissioner charge” against Macy’s. Such charges, which can be filed by any of the five members of the agency’s leadership panel, are relatively rare, with only 29 filed in the 2022 fiscal year, up from only 3 in each of the previous two years. AFL also sent a letter to Macy’s chairman and board of directors, writing it was alerting them to “apparent mismanagement that threatens the waste of company assets, institutional disregard for and violations of federal civil rights laws, and breaches of fiduciary duty.” Since the U.S. Supreme Court struck down affirmative action in college admissions in June, AFL appears to have increasingly taken aim at corporate diversity efforts. AFL has filed complaints with the EEOC about a number of major U.S. companies, including Starbucks, McDonald’s and Anheuser-Busch, which are among those that that it has designated as “woke corporations” on its website. The EEOC has not responded to the group’s claim that diversity, equity and inclusion efforts violate Title VII. AFL shared details of the complaint on X, formerly Twitter, saying Americans should know that Macy’s “appears to maintain politicize that perpetuate illegal racial discrimination—denying career advancement to white straight men” before tuning into Macy’s annual Thanksgiving Day parade or going Black Friday shopping. “Macy’s own public-facing materials all but acknowledge that they are engaging in personnel practices that violate federal law,” John A. Zadrozny, AFL deputy director of oversight and investigations, said in a statement. “Because of this, Macy’s is now going to have to explain to the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission why they have chosen to become a civil rights violator. It is our hope that Macy’s takes this opportunity to correct its unlawful and egregious conduct as soon as possible.”)

But then, my Democrat IRS superiors a) disallowed my travel vouchers (SEE: https://www.gao.gov/products/b-180010.11 ), b) got rid of the IRS manager who had promoted me to GS-9 (currently $63,633) in 1972 and to GS-11 in 1973, gotten me the CentiPhone Manager assignment, and had promoted me to GS-12 in 1974, and c) made it very clear that they would never promote me to GS-13 even though I earned an MBA from Loyola in 1976 and passed the CPA examination on my first attempt in 1979.

Philip, 93, known most commonly in Illinois statehouse politics by the nickname “Pate,” died Tuesday night at his home in Wood Dale after a short illness, with his wife of 46 years, Nancy, at his side. No cause of death was given. Philip served for 36 years in the Illinois General Assembly, eight in the Illinois House before moving to the state Senate, where he served for 28 years and climbed the ladder of leadership to become Senate president in 1993. He remained president for a decade before retiring in 2003 after Democrats gained control of the chamber. His tenure marked him as the longest serving Republican Senate president. “’Pate’ was very loyal to his members. I mean, he would really do whatever it took that he thought to help them get reelected. And of all the leaders, he probably was the most committed to the rank and file,” said former Republican Gov. Jim Edgar, who served from 1991 to 1999. “The other thing about ‘Pate’ that I always thought was interesting is that there were certain things he really believed in and that’s what he’s going to do. The politics didn’t bother him as much as (it might for) somebody now,” Edgar said. Philip’s public comments could be crude and considered racist, often directed at Chicago, yet it reflected the characteristics of the white gentrified DuPage County of the 1960s and 1970s where he began to amass political power locally. He was first elected as York Township auditor in 1965 and was president of the Illinois Young Republicans the same year before his election to the Illinois House. Upon Republicans gaining the Senate majority in the 1992 redistricting year in which the GOP had won the rights to redraw Illinois’ legislative political boundaries in a drawing, Philip as Senate president-elect had what was the only large-scale news conference of his public career. Asked by a reporter about his attitude toward bilingual education amid increasing ethnic and racial diversity in the state, Philip bluntly responded, “Let ‘em learn English.” He lamented additional state funding for Chicago schools as “pouring money down a rat hole.” In the midst of a budget standoff with the still-Democratic controlled Illinois House in his first year as Senate president, Philip said he didn’t want to increase welfare benefits to poor people because they would use the money to “buy more lottery tickets.” He long posited that suburbanites helped subsidize lower-income residents of Chicago without getting their fair share of state tax dollars and labeled city residents as “eaters.” He fought efforts to require auto emission testing requirements in the suburbs because, he said, suburbanites drive newer cars. “I guess I’m not politically correct, but I never have tried to be politically correct,” Philip said after criticism over his remarks. At times, Philip resembled the outlandishness of Archie Bunker, the bigoted fictional “All In The Family” TV character of the 1970s in using rhetorical stereotypes to play to his white suburban constituency. A TV news anchor, new to Chicago, pronounced his name “Pâté,” the food most often made of liver, which political opponents used to mock him. But Philip, who retired as a district sales manager for Pepperidge Farm Inc. after 38 years, was a formidable politician who engendered loyalty from his Republican members and begrudging respect from Democrats for living up to the unwritten creed that his word was his bond. And as Senate president, one of the top four leaders in the Illinois legislature, and as DuPage County GOP chairman for more than 30 years, he was able to steer massive amounts of tax dollars, particularly in infrastructure, to the vast growing suburbs and enhance their role in Illinois’ economy, such as the creation of the North-South Tollway. “’Pate’ Philip was a giant in Illinois, DuPage and political life,” said former state Sen. Kirk Dillard of Downers Grove, a former DuPage County GOP chair who now chairs the Regional Transportation Authority. “It’s important that people understand that he came out of a different era than today’s politics,” Dillard said in a statement. “‘Pate’ Philip loved Illinois. What he should probably be most remembered for was his honor, patriotism and integrity. His word was his bond to allies as well as political opponents. He was truly one of a kind. His death marks the end of an era in Illinois.” Philip was a staunch gun-rights advocate, which led to a showdown in 1999 between himself and then-Gov. George Ryan over efforts by the governor and backed by then-Mayor Richard M. Daley to reinstate a court-overturned law that made illegal possession of a firearm a felony. After months, an agreement was reached that gave prosecutors discretion in prosecuting the offense. Philip also led the fight against Daley’s effort to create a third Chicago airport at Lake Calumet and led opposition in Hegewisch, which would have been demolished. Daley folded his third airport plan as a result. In March of 1989, while serving as leader of the Republican minority in the Illinois Senate, Philip told Illinois Issues magazine that he understood the perception most people have toward politicians. “Most people look down on politicians. I would say if you ask them the professions they distrust they’d say used car salesmen, bartenders, pimps and politicians,” he said. “I would hope people in my district have a better opinion of me.” Philip attended York Community High School in Elmhurst, Kansas City Junior College, and Kansas State College. He was drafted into the U.S. Marine Corps at the start of the Korean War and served from 1951 to 1953. He is survived by his wife, Nancy, four children and nine grandchildren. His family said that at Philip’s request, no services will be held and burial will be private.)

— Brighton Park migrant tent site construction blocked by protesters: ‘Show me the permit; I’m ready to go to jail.’ Protesters said more than 10 dump trucks were lined up to enter the site to lay a gravel base, which city officials have said is required of any site intended for a migrant camp. – Michael Loria and Tyler LaRiviere

— There’s no gray area about the importance of truth in journalism. – Rick Telander (COMMENT: The more of the following that journalist are, the faster that they are gotten rid of: conservative, Republican, White, male, older, non-veteran, Protestant, German American, and/or have ancestors who have been in America for a long time. I should write a book about that. Of course, I would use myself as an example.)

— Dog bites hit South and West Sides hardest — same areas that lack dog parks, pet shops, other resources. While dog bites since 2019 have taken place all across the city, the communities with the highest number of complaints are largely on the West Side of the city where there are fewer resources for dogs and their owners. – Phyllis Cha (COMMENT: I delivered mail for the Park Forest Post 1966-1969. While I was never bit, I had many close calls. Neither my parents nor my grandparents on my father’s side owned dogs. My grandparents on my mother’s side owned dogs, but only because they operated a farm and abandoned dogs came to their farm looking for food.)

(COMMENT: Government is vicious. Politics is vicious. Democrats are vicious. During the 1980s, my Democrat GAO superiors viciously demonized me, denigrated me, condemned me, and punished me because my wife and I gave up trying to have children without trying in vitro fertilization. According to our doctor, success would have been extremely unlikely because we both had fertility problems — with her eggs and my sperm.)
— Liberal Democrats ever-increasingly a) run America and b) blame conservative Republicans for all problems. The liberal Democrat Party platform promotes dependency on government and charity, LGBTQ, abortion, mass/illegal immigration, booze, gambling, pot, and other vices, diminishment of Second Amendment rights, patronage, political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, and age discrimination. The aforesaid promote poverty and crime.

I lived in Crete 1948-1972. I commuted by car to classes at UIC west of the Loop 1966-1968. Wheaton’s public transit to the Loop was a very big reason why my wife and I bought a home in Wheaton in 1978 and had one built in Wheaton in 1984. I worked in the Loop in 1971 and then 1973-1997. My wife worked in the Loop 1970-1992.)

DAILY HERALD
— Private schools lament end of state’s Invest in Kids tax credit for scholarships – Marni Pyke (COMMENT: How much money did your parents have? My father and his father, grandfather, and great grandfather had lots less money because they all sent their children to Trinity Lutheran Grade School in Crete. My father sent me to that school 1953-1961 and then my brother 1958-1961. He sent me to Hope Lutheran Grade School in Park Forest 1961-1962 and my brother 1961-1968 to stay with the Missouri Synod. Because of the aforesaid, my father had lots less money and I had to buy my own cars and work my way through college. My father almost always worked second jobs to pay the family’s bills, most often playing the piano in restaurants and bars, delivering eggs in Park Forest, and working in an A&W in Steger.)

— Chicago community organization serves as real-life example of healing power of foster care – SUZANNE LE MIGNOT (COMMENT: I should write a book about my Democrat GAO superiors who ran GAO’s Chicago office in 1987, 1988, and 1989 and used as a pretext my wife and I having given up trying to have children, our not adopting, and our not becoming foster parents to punish me big time. They hinted/implied/argued/shouted that I had lied about my wanting to have children and what my wife and I had done to have children to be assigned in in-town audits. The real reason for their punishment was my having complained about political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, and age discrimination and I had become in late 1988 the office’s only active member in a class action lawsuit that charged them with reverse discrimination, age discrimination, and retaliation. I would focus on my Democrat superiors who forced the GAO manager to resign in 1987 who had arranged for my transfer from IRS in 1980, who had been finally able to assign me to audits of IRS in early 1986, and who promoted me to GS-13 (currently $109,732/year) in late 1986. I would focus on those who threw me off audits of IRS in late 1988. I would focus on those who constructively demoted me in 1989 by assigned me to a bad 6-month out-of-town audit and by giving me unfair performance expectations and an unfair performance appraisal. Better yet, I should sue them.)

— This Illinois city is growing, but these 7 are shrinking – Marc Sternfield, Addy Bink
https://wgntv.com/news/illinois/this-illinois-city-is-growing-but-these-7-are-shrinking-analysis/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Here in Illinois, only Joliet experienced growth over the last five years, albeit meager. According to SmartAsset, the city’s population grew from 147,150 in 2017 to 147,696, a less than 1% increase. . .It wasn’t all growth across Illinois, though (more than 344,000 residents did leave the state last year). According to SmartAsset’s analysis, seven Illinois cities saw their populations decrease between 2017 and 2022. The hardest hit was Aurora, which saw a 10% decrease in population over the analyzed time frame. Nearby Elgin’s population decreased by just over 4%, while Peoria saw a 5.5% dip in population. Naperville saw the lowest decrease, losing only about 80 residents between 2017 and 2022. Others shrank by less than 2%: Springfield (-1.2%), Rockford (-1.7%) and Chicago (-1.9%).)

— Volunteers blindsided by new 60-day limit on migrant stays in Chicago shelters. Advocates wonder where people will stay once their time in Chicago shelters runs out. (COMMENT: Anticipate/expect that Chicago Democrat leaders will ever-increasingly send their illegals to your county, to your township, to your municipality, to your school district, to your neighborhood, and to your block. Will they send their illegals to residences of registered Democrats? If so, what will those registered Democrats have those illegals do? Walk their dogs? Clean up after their dogs? Take care of their children? Teach their children how to speak, read, and write Spanish? Buy groceries? Cook and serve meals? Wash dishes and clothes? Rake leaves? Shovel snow? Clean bathrooms? Take out the garbage? Will the formula be one illegal for each registered Democrat in the residence? Of course, nearby RINO employers will replace their employees who are citizens of America with illegals and pay them way less.)

QUAD CITY TIMES
— CNN asks DeSantis if Trump is too old to run. How old are you? According to my Democrat IRS superiors, starting in 1973, I was too old to be promoted to GS-13 because I was 25 years old and because I was not a Democrat, minority, female, or veteran. It is called up-or-out, political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, and age discrimination. I finally did make GS-13 in 1986, but only after I earned an MBA from Loyola in 1976, passed the CPA examination on my first attempt in 1979, transferred to GAO in 1980, earned a master’s degree in accounting from DePaul in 1980, passed the Certified Internal Auditor examination on my first attempt in 1981, became a licensed CPA in 1981, and finally got assigned to audits of IRS in 1986. All of my coworkers who my Democrat IRS and GAO superiors promoted over me had less job-related work experience, less job-related education, and/or fewer professional certifications than I had or no professional certifications. None of them had a job-related professional license like I had.

— Biden FCC Moves to Put New DEI Controls Over Internet – Eric Mack
https://www.newsmax.com/newsfront/fcc-joe-biden-dei/2023/11/20/id/1142976/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: “Despite admitting there’s ‘little to no evidence’ of discrimination by telecommunications companies, Democrats are hoping to convince the American people that broadband Internet is so racist they need to plow ahead with government-mandated affirmative action and race-based pricing,” Cruz wrote in a statement. “The only beneficiaries of this Orwellian ‘equity’ plan are overzealous government regulators who want to control the Internet.” Cruz had led 27 Senate Republicans’ letter to Rosenworcel warning against the vote later last week to authorize the Biden DEI initiative at the FCC, but she ignored it, his office lamented. “Your Draft Order, which largely follows a Biden administration diktat, will create crippling uncertainty for the U.S. broadband industry, chill broadband investment, and undermine Congress’ objective of promoting broadband access for all Americans,” the letter read. “We urge you to adhere to the will of Congress and conform to the plain meaning of section 60506 to avoid causing serious damage to the competitive and innovative U.S. broadband industry.”)
