(FROM THE ARTICLE: While some branches of government brag about the marijuana revenues, others warn of the physical and mental-health dangers marijuana consumption poses. “Know the risks of marijuana,” the federal agency warns, including threats to: Brain health. Those who start young “risk permanent IQ loss.” Mental health. Weed use has been linked to a variety of ailments, including depression, anxiety and psychosis. Physical decline. Athletes who use dope encounter problems with “timing, movement and coordination.” The list goes on. Unborn babies can suffer from mothers’ consumption. Marijuana-impaired drivers pose risks to public safety. Here’s the killer. “Research shows that people who use marijuana are more likely to have relationship problems, worse educational outcomes, lower career achievement and reduced life satisfaction,” SAMHSA states. Despite warnings of that nature, many people remain blissfully unaware of the dangers. Illinois’ elected officials knew, but they were so focused on the revenue gain they didn’t care. People should remember the downside next time a marijuana sales report is revealed. That new revenue doesn’t come cheap.)

I should write about Republican Party leaders, elected officials, and activists in Wheaton, Milton Township, and DuPage County who reject planks in the Republican Party platform, b) the planks that they reject, and c) the adverse actions that they have taken against me and are taking against me.

Since 2021, they have succeeded in stopping me from serving as the Republican fundraiser for Wheaton Independence Day parades and fireworks. Most commonly, they reject the individual responsibility, traditional marriage and family, right to life, immigration, illegal drugs, Second Amendment, and/or equal opportunity (no race or gender based preference giving) planks.

REASON
— Mass/illegal immigration drives down wages for citizens of American whose parents have less money. My parents had less money. My father never earned more than $50,000/year in today’s dollars. If there had been as many migrants when I was young, because wages would have been lower, I never would have been able to earn enough money doing yard work, delivering newspapers, washing dishes, cleaning golf shoes, chipping slag, pumping gasoline, and delivering mail to buy a 1958 Chevrolet Bel Air in 1964 when I was 16, buy a new 1966 Pontiac Tempest Sprint in 1966, pay for my UIC expenses 1966-1968, buy a new 1968 Oldsmobile 442 in 1967, buy a new 1969 Dodge Charger SE in 1968, pay for my NIU expenses 1969-1970, and graduate debt-free from NIU in 1970 with a bachelor’s degree in management and owning that Charger.

— Democrats acknowledge that “With Supreme Court affirmative action ruling, it’s time for companies to take a hard look at their corporate diversity programs.” My Democrat GAO superiors used my opposition to Affirmative Action (AA) to take many adverse actions against me included a) forcing me to take their early retirement “offer” in 1997 when I was 49 years old, b) always ranking me in the bottom half of my coworkers for pay-for-performance purposes, c) never promoting me to GS-14 and delaying my promotions to GS-13, GS-12, and GS-11, d) keeping me off audits of IRS for all but 3 of the almost 18 years that I worked for GAO, e) giving me bad job assignments, unfair performance expectations, and unfair performance appraisals, and f) forcing me to suffer a $21,863/year (21%) pay cut in today’s dollars (a downgrade from GS-12 Step 5 to GS-9 Step 10) to transfer from IRS to GAO in 1980. My Democrat IRS superiors used my opposition to AA to take many adverse actions against me included a) never promoting me beyond GS-12, b) disallowing my education deductions in 1978, and c) disallowing my travel vouchers in 1974. My Democrat Post Office superiors used my opposition to AA to take many adverse actions against me included a) forcing me to resign in 1969 and b) disallowing my sick leave requests in 1969 and 1968. My RINO Milton Township Republican Organization (MTRO), DuPage County Republican Central Committee (DCRCC), and Illinois Republican Party (IRP) superiors continue to use my opposition to AA to take many adverse actions against me included a) discouraging me from putting GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters together and sending them out and b) discouraging everyone from reading those newsletters. They ever-increasingly stress that getting votes from those who are minority, female, and/or younger is MTRO’s, DCRCC’s, and IRP’s top priority.

(FROM THE ARTICLE: But recently, the EEOC and DOJ have advocated a broader, textualist reading of what constitutes “adverse action” in the workplace under Title VII — and some federal appellate courts have begun to agree. This issue will be before the Supreme Court next term if it agrees to hear Muldrow v. St. Louis and Davis v. Legal Services Alabama, Inc. A more expansive view could have serious implications for certain diversity programs. The EEOC and DOJ’s existing position is that Title VII bars discrimination in all actions affecting “terms, conditions, or privileges of employment” — including actions falling short of hiring, firing, or promotion. This expansive reading of Title VII could implicate a host of increasingly popular race-conscious corporate initiatives: from providing race-restricted access to mentoring, sponsorship, or training programs; to selecting interviewees partially due to diverse candidate slate policies; to tying executive or employee compensation to the company achieving certain demographic targets; to offering race-restricted diversity internship programs or accelerated interview processes, sometimes paired with euphemistic diversity “scholarships” that effectively provide more compensation for “diverse” summer interns. Between today’s wake-up call on affirmative action restrictions, and what may be coming down the pike from the Court next term on the scope of adverse actions covered by Title VII, there’s never been a better time for companies to take a hard look at their diversity programs.)

— Why you should closely check the odometer on that used car you’re thinking of buying – Niccole Caan (COMMENT: Recently, I traded in my 2016 Ford Mustang in for a new loaded 2023 Ford Mustang GT Premium. Both CarMax and the Ford dealer valued my 2016 Ford Mustang at only $21,000 notwithstanding the fact that it had only 300 miles on it, it had always been garaged, it had never been driven in the rain, and I had always stored it on jacks November-April. Both CarMax and the dealer hinted/implied that the car’s extremely low mileage was a negative. They hinted/implied that potential buyers of the car would strongly suspect odometer fraud. I know a lot about odometer fraud. SEE: Diersen v. Chicago Car Exchange at https://caselaw.findlaw.com/court/us-7th-circuit/1385001.html Further, according to Car & Driver, my 2005 Corvette is worth only $6,505–$9,360 trade-in notwithstanding the fact that it has only 970 miles on it, it has always been garaged, it has never been driven in the rain, and I have always stored it on jacks November-April. A 2005 Corvette with 5,323 miles on it is offered for sale by Diamond Motorworks in Lisle for $34,800.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: Texas ranks second in the nation when it comes to the number of vehicles on the road with rolled-back odometers. San Antonio ranks better at 19th in the U.S., but do not take chances because it will cost down the road. “So many people don’t know that digital odometers can be rolled back,” said Emilie Voss of CARFAX. “We think back to ‘Ferris Bueller’s Day Off’ and that analog odometer getting taken out and manually rolled back. Unfortunately, the digital odometer is, in most cases, easier to manipulate.” Rolling back an odometer is easy to do and difficult for buyers to spot. “There’s nothing mechanically that can be seen, no trace left where you can tell the odometer has been rolled back,” said Voss. It will cost you. You will pay more for the car and more for repairs when there is a rolled back odometer. “This can cost you thousands of dollars, not only upfront in the purchase price but cost you thousands of dollars and a lot of headache and heartache during ownership,” Voss said. “The maintenance schedule on a vehicle that has 150,000 miles is very different from one that has 50,000. If you don’t know that true odometer reading, it can cause you a lot of problems, not to mention a safety issue.” . . . The mileage adjustment added $3,000 of value to the car. To spot odometer fraud, make sure you get a vehicle history report like a CARFAX before you buy. “There are all these mileage readings on a CARFAX report for vehicles,” Voss said. “You look at the last reading and see what it is and then see what’s on the dashboard right now. If there’s a discrepancy, if it’s lower than what was on the last reading, that should be a red flag to walk away.” CARFAX also flags any cars that have inconsistent mileage. Ingle said odometer rollback devices are fairly easy to get and fairly inexpensive, yet there are legitimate reasons a body shop would have the tool, such as repairing broken odometers. Next, get an independent mechanic to inspect the car. “A trained mechanic can see wear and tear,” Voss said. “They can see things you and I might not see.” An inspection will cost about $100, but it can save you thousands in repairs. . .It is important to know exactly what you are buying so you can make an informed decision before purchasing. Also, take time to test drive any vehicle before you buy it.)

RIVER BENDER
— Democrats say “Duckworth Introduces New Legislation To Help Address Military Recruitment Crisis By Expanding Pool Of Talented Potential Recruits.” From what I see having worked for the Democrats who ran GAO for almost 18 years, IRS for almost 9 years, and the Post Office for almost 3 years, the more of the following that a military recruit is, the bleaker that recruit’s future would be: heterosexual, conservative, patriotic, American, White, male, older, Christian, Protestant, Italian American, German American, and/or if that recruit’s ancestors have been in America for a long time. The more of the aforesaid that a recruit is, the more that recruit would be given unfair job assignments, unfair performance expectations, and unfair performance appraisals and the more that “up-or-out” would be used to get rid of that recruit. The Democrats who run the federal government want all federal employees to be “good little Democrats.”
https://www.riverbender.com/articles/details/duckworth-introduces-new-legislation-to-help-address-military-recruitment-crisis-by-expanding-pool-of-talented-potential-recruits-66602.cfm
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The Enlist Act would aid recruitment efforts by simply expanding the DoD’s authority to enlist individuals who have lived in the U.S. for at least five years and meet all of the services’ qualifications for military service. This bill would allow enlistment of: DACA recipients; People who have Temporary Protected Status (TPS); and People who have an approved petition for an immigrant visa, subject to visa caps.)

She spoke to Peter Boghossian about the differences between men and women. This clip discusses how the parents of transgender children will not be able to face what they have done.

My working only part-time was treated as though I had worked full-time for federal seniority and for Civil Service Retirement System (CSRS) purposes. I earned 20 days of annual leave during each of the almost 9 years that I worked for IRS 1971-1980 and for the first 3 years that I worked for GAO 1980-1983. I earned 26 days of annual leave during each of the almost 15 years that I worked for GAO 1983-1997. I earned 1 hour of sick leave for each 20 hours that I worked part-time for the Park Forest Post Office 1966-1969 and 13 days each year that I worked for IRS 1971-1980 and for GAO 1980-1997. I was paid $16,460 in today’s dollars for my unused annual leave when I retired in 1997 and my many unused sick days were treated as though I had worked those days to increase my CSRS pension. In summary, I earned almost 600 annual leave days and more than 350 sick days while I worked for the federal government for almost 30 years. Of course, my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes have always been beyond furious about the aforesaid.

I walked to/from that condo and work and graduate business classes at Loyola until 1976 when I traded it in to the building’s developer for a one bedroom condo. I walked to/from that condo and work and graduate accounting courses at DePaul until 1978 when I got married, sold it for a $10,000 gain ($46,645 in today’s dollars), and bought a home in Wheaton with my wife.)

CHICAGO MAGAZINE
— Democrats say “Why Let Naperville Bother You? Naperville can’t hurt you if you simply don’t think about it at all.” (COMMENT: What are your connections with Naperville? My wife and I almost bought a home in Naperville in 1978. My wife’s brother and his family have lived in Naperville since 1989. One of his four daughters and her family continue to live in Naperville. During the 1990s, I took my 1962 Chevrolet Impala SS and my 1968 Dodge Charger R/T to car shows in Naperville. My wife and I bought an Iron Gate Motor Condo in late Naperville in 2020 and we recently sold it and bought a bigger one. I take my vehicles to Naperville for emissions testing.
https://www.chicagomag.com/city-life/why-let-naperville-bother-you/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Our mayor won’t stop talking about Naperville. “This City Council meeting is being recorded live from Naperville,” Mayor Johnson said, at the beginning of his first meeting as mayor. At last week’s Netroots Nation convention, he reminded attendees, “We’re not in Naperville.” The mayor was taking a dig at Fox and Friends for airing an interview with two disgruntled Chicago voters on the day of his inauguration: it was conducted at Rosie’s Home Cookin’ — in Naperville. Let’s be real, though: The mayor was also taking a dig at Naperville. It’s become a Chicago tradition. Whenever a Chicagoan complains about the proverbial suburbanite who claims to be from Chicago, it’s always someone “from Naperville.”)

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

CENTRAL ILLINOIS PROUD
— Democrats say “When student activists assembled in Florida last year for Turning Point Action’s annual summit, many were torn, wrestling with whether former President Donald Trump or Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis was the Republican Party’s best hope for 2024. One year later, there is no more doubt. Attendees at this year’s meeting booed at even the suggestion of a contested GOP primary. Trump, they overwhelmingly said, is their pick.”

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

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

— Affirmative Action Bred Hypocrisy and Victimhood. The Supreme Court’s decision gives conservatives an opportunity to reaffirm their commitment to merit. – Bobby Jindal (COMMENT: My critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes have always rejected the equal opportunity (no race or gender based preference giving) plank in the Republican Party platform, that is, they have always promoted Affirmative Action (AA), Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI). I should write books about them. I would focus on those who have hinted/implied/argued/shouted the most that I should pay the price of AA and DEI big time because my parents were filthy rich and because I have benefitting tremendously from discrimination against minorities, females, younger people, LGBTQers, veterans, non-Christians, non-Protestants, non-German Americans, those whose ancestors have not been in America for a long time, citizens of foreign countries, boozers, gamblers, stoners, criminals, those who have less money than I had/have, etc. I would focus on those who have taken the most/biggest adverse actions against me. I would focus on my Democrat superiors in the federal government and a) RINO leaders of the Milton Township Republican Organization, DuPage County Republican Central Committee, and Illinois Republican Party, b) RINO leaders of Wheaton, Wheaton Park District, Wheaton Chamber of Commerce, Milton Township, DuPage County, and Illinois, c) RINO candidates on ballots in my precinct and their major donors, political consultants, fundraisers, pollsters, campaign managers, campaign staff members, and campaign volunteers, and d) RINO conservative and religious leaders and activists.

Because my parents lacked money, I did yard work 1962-1964, delivered newspapers 1962-1966, washed dishes 1964-1966, cleaned golf shoes, chipped slag, and pumped gasoline in 1966, and delivered mail 1966-1969. With the money that I earned, I bought a 1958 Chevrolet Bel Air in 1964, I bought a new 1966 Pontiac Tempest Sprint in 1966, I paid for my UIC expenses 1966-1968 and for my NIU expenses 1969-1970, I bought a new 1968 Oldsmobile 442 in 1967, I bought a new 1969 Dodge Charger SE in 1968, and I graduated debt-free from NIU with a bachelor’s degree in management and owning that Charger in 1970. If there had been as many illegals back then as there are now, illegals would have gotten the jobs that I got and the wages paid for those jobs would have been much less.

560 THE ANSWER
— Jeanne Ives Joins AM 560 Starting Tonight
https://560theanswer.com/radioshow/the-real-story
(FROM THE ANNOUNCEMENT: An informed and educated citizenry is the only guarantee to preserve our constitutional republic. Each week hear from policy experts — not pundits — to find out what’s really happening so that you can be informed. Get The Real Story with Jeanne Ives. There’s no topic of public policy concern that she won’t talk about. Stop the lies. Learn the truth on The Real Story with Jeanne Ives. . .Jeanne Ives served three terms as an Illinois State Representative. First elected in 2012, Representative Ives demonstrated not only a willingness to lead on difficult issues and question powerful House leaders, but also an insightful understanding of policy. In keeping with her fiscally conservative principles, she refused both a taxpayer funded pension and healthcare. Her legislation has been recognized throughout the state. During her tenure, Representative Ives focused on bringing about true pension and tax reform in the state, government transparency, and advocating for school choice. Her opinion pieces have been published in the Chicago Tribune, The Federalist and the Wall Street Journal as well as several political news sites. In 2018, she was enlisted by Illinois families and business owners, as well as legislative colleagues to run a campaign for Governor after incumbent Republican Bruce Rauner betrayed his campaign promises to fiscally reform government and pursue no social agenda. In 2020, Representative Ives ran for Congress against Democrat incumbent Sean Casten. Her effort was not successful, but her campaign created a new momentum in the suburbs for conservative thought. As such, Jeanne started a non-profit Breakthrough Ideas whose mission is to build the infrastructure and conservative networks (online and grassroots) needed to advance conservative ideas and Republican candidates in the suburbs. Representative Ives graduated in the West Point Class of 1987 with a Bachelor of Science in Economics. She went on to serve in the US Army. Her assignments included platoon leader and headquarters detachment commander for transportation units in Germany and ROTC instructor at Wheaton College. She resigned from the Army in 1993 to raise her children. At the same time, she worked as a tax advisor and bookkeeper for small businesses and individuals. Prior to her election to the Illinois House, Ives served on the Wheaton City Council, where her tenure was marked by conservative leadership and an unwavering commitment to the taxpayers’ bottom line. Her awards include Champion of Free Enterprise from the Illinois Chamber of Commerce, the inaugural Titanium Backbone Award from Illinois Family Institute for her pro-family stances, and 100% rating from the American Conservative Union. Jeanne has lived in Wheaton for 29 years with her husband, Paul (also a USMA Class of 1987 graduate), and their 5 children. The tradition continues with three sons serving in the military. One of her greatest joys was coaching the championship St. Michael Boys and Girls Cross Country teams for 12 years as a parent volunteer.)

I would focus on those champions who treat me like I have run Trump’s campaign in DuPage County, Milton Township, and Wheaton since 2015.

I would focus on a) my Democrat superiors in the federal government, b) leaders of the Milton Township Republican Organization, DuPage County Republican Central Committee, and Illinois Republican Party, c) leaders of Wheaton, Wheaton Chamber of Commerce, Wheaton Park District, Milton Township, DuPage County, and Illinois, d) conservative leaders and activists, and e) religious leaders and activists.)
https://townhall.com/columnists/victordavishanson/2023/07/14/ten-reasons-why-affirmative-action-died-n2625719
https://www.dailysignal.com/2023/07/14/10-reasons-why-affirmative-action-died/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The end of affirmative action was inevitable. The only surprise was that such intentions went terribly wrong and lasted so long. First, supporters of racial preferences always pushed back the goalposts for the program’s success. Was institutionalized reverse bias to last 20 years, 60 years, or ad infinitum? Parity became defined as an absolute equality of results. If “equity” was not obtained, then only institutionalized “racism” explained disparities. And only reverse racism was deemed the cure. Second, affirmative action was imposed on the back end in adult hiring and college admissions. However, to achieve parity, remediation early at the K-12 school level would have been the only solution. Yet such intervention was made impossible by teachers’ unions, the rise of identity politics, and government entitlements. All opposed school choice, self-help programs, critiques of cultural impediments, or restrictions on those blanket entitlements. Third, class, the true barometer of privilege, was rendered meaningless. Surrealism followed. The truly privileged Barack and Michelle Obama and Meghan Markel lectured the country on its unfairness — as if they had it far rougher than the impoverished “deplorable” of East Palestine, Ohio. Fourth, affirmative action supporters could never square the circle of proving that racial prejudices didn’t violate the spirit of the Declaration of Independence and the text of the Constitution. What they were left with was the lame argument that because long ago, the 90% white majority had violated their own foundational documents, then such past bad unconstitutional bias could legitimately be rectified by present-day “good” unconstitutional bias. Fifth, supporters never adequately explained why the sins of prior generations fell on their descendants who grew up in the post-Civil Rights era. Nor could they account for why those who had never experienced institutionalized racism, much less Jim Crow apartheid or slavery, were to be compensated collectively for the suffering of long-dead individuals. No wonder 70% of the American people in many polls favored ending affirmative action, including half of African-Americans. Sixth, there never was a “rainbow” coalition of shared non-white victimhood — a concept necessary to perpetuate the premise of white privilege, supremacy, and rage, so integral to race-based reverse discrimination. More than a dozen ethnicities earn more per capita than whites. Asians have been subject to coerced internment, immigration restrictions, and zoning exclusions. Yet on average, they do better than whites economically and enjoy lower suicide rates and longer life expectancies. The arguments for affirmative action never explained why Asians and other minorities who faced discrimination outperformed the majority white population. As a result, affirmative action ended up discriminating against Asians on the premise they were too successful! Seventh, no one ever explained when affirmative action was to apply. Blacks, for example, were vastly “overrepresented” in merit-based professional football and basketball. Yet no one demanded “proportional representation” to address such “disparate impact” despite the underrepresentation of all other demographics. Yet if Blacks were “underrepresented” in baseball, then reparatory measures were supposed to address that fact — even if Latino players were “overrepresented” and whites “underrepresented” as well. No one in our race-obsessed culture, of course, objected that white males died at twice their demographics in combat in Afghanistan and Iraq. Eighth, in our increasingly intermarried mass-immigration society, few could adjudicate who was what, or much less what standard gave one racial preference. In lunatic fashion, pink, blond Massachusetts Senator Elizabeth Warren became Harvard’s first “Native American” law professor due to her “high cheekbones.” Light-skinned Latinos were considered marginalized, while some darker Italians or Greeks were not. Ninth, an odious wokeism absorbed affirmative action and changed it into something even more abhorrent — as the original spirit of the Civil Rights movement was trashed. So Americans were asked to stomach a return to distasteful segregated dorms, “separate but equal” graduation ceremonies, and racially exclusive workshops. Tenth, and finally, affirmative action was insidiously destroying meritocracy. That hallmark American value of tribally-blind inclusivity had once explained why the nation outshone the world by discarding the old class prejudices of Europe. But increasingly, this value seemed to have been abandoned. When Stockton Rush, the late captain, and inventor of the ill-fated Titan deep-sea explorer, was quoted postmortem bragging that his company had no need of “old white guys” with long military expertise in submarining, Americans realized that woke racial discrimination was not just repulsive, but could get you killed. A nation whose pilot training, medical-school admissions, and military high command promotions were increasingly adopting racial, gender, or sexual-orientation essentialism was a country headed for the sort of Third World tribalism characteristic of failed states abroad. Ultimately, the court finally stepped in to end this unconstitutional aberration, more like the old Soviet commissariat than our ideals of equality under the law. The American people concurred. And the only regret seemed to be, why not sooner?)

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

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

In 1961, when I was 13 years old, to stay with the Missouri Synod, they left Trinity Lutheran Church in Crete for the Missouri Synod-run Hope Lutheran Church in Park Forest and transferred my brother and I to Hope Lutheran Grade School because Trinity Lutheran had transferred to the more-conservative Wisconsin Synod.

https://www.foxnews.com/media/teen-girl-accused-hate-speech-protesting-transgenders-ymca-locker-room-report
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Last April, sixteen-year-old Abbigail Wheeler, a swimmer on the Springfield YMCA SPY swim team, entered the girls’ locker room to change when she noticed a couple transgender individuals sitting there, her father told Illinois-based podcast host Jeanne Ives. The head swim coach Alex Totura was informed of the situation but told Wheeler there was nothing he could do about it. A few weeks later, parents voiced concerns at the monthly meeting but were told again by the local branch’s Chief Executive Officer Angie Sowle there was nothing they could do about the biological males in the girls’ changing areas.)

— Overwhelmingly, journalists are not only liberal Democrats, Libertarians, Greens, Independents, or RINOs, but they are anti-heterosexual, anti-conservative, anti-Republican, anti-American, anti-White, anti-male, anti-older people, anti-married people, anti-Christian, anti-Protestant, anti-Italian American, anti-German American, and/or anti-those whose ancestors have been in America for a long time. I am one of the extremely few journalists in Illinois who is not any of the foresaid. I have always fully disclosed that I am conservative and Republican.

https://www.dailyherald.com/news/20230708/collar-county-seniors-are-in-line-for-a-bigger-property-tax-break-if-not-lower-tax-bills
— Democrats ever-increasingly promote stories about minorities and about women who have benefitted from Affirmative Action (AA), that is, who have benefitted from reparations, patronage, political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, and age discrimination. I challenge the Daily Herald to publish stories about those like me who have been forced to pay the price of AA by Democrats and by RINOs. I challenge the Daily Herald to publish my story. In 1971, when I was 22 years old, Oldsmobile withdrew a job offer that I had accepted saying that it had just agreed to stop hiring Whites to settle an EEOC complaint. Sadly, if not tragically for me, that directly resulted in my accepting a job offer from IRS. Especially after 1974, my Democrat IRS superiors used AA to promote over me my coworkers who were minority, female, and/or veteran and a) who had less job-related work experience than I had, b) who had less job-related education than I had, and/or c) who had not taken the CPA examination, let alone passed it. I earned an MBA from Loyola in 1976 and I passed the CPA examination on my first attempt in 1979. In 1980, because I was not a Democrat, minority, female, veteran. and/or younger, GAO forced me to suffer a $21,863/year (21%) pay cut in today’s dollars to transfer from IRS to GAO. My Democrat GAO superiors gave me unfair job assignments, performance expectations, and performance appraisals. They assigned me to supervised all their most problematic employees. The kept me off audits of IRS for all but 3 of the almost 18 years that I worked for GAO. They delayed my promotions and never promoted me beyond GS-13. They used AA to promote over me my coworkers who were minority, female, and/or veteran and a) who had less job-related work experience than I had, b) who had less job-related education than I had, and/or c) who had not taken the CPA or Certified Internal Auditor (CIA) examinations, let alone passed them. I earned a master’s degree in accounting from DePaul in 1980, I passed the CIA 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, and I earned a master’s degree in financial markets and trading from IIT in 1997. They always ranked me in the bottom half of my coworkers for pay-for-performance purposes. They forced me to take their early retirement “offer” in 1997 and gave my job and my preferred corner office to my Black subordinate. The Milton Township Republican Organization, DuPage County Republican Central Committee, Illinois Republican Party, Wheaton, Wheaton Park District, Wheaton Chamber of Commerce, Milton Township, DuPage County, Illinois, TAPROOT Republicans of Illinois, Illinois Center Right Coalition, American Association of Political Consultants Midwest Chapter, etc. have all taken many big adverse actions against me that they would never had taken against me if I was a minority, female, veteran, and/or younger.

It is titled “Unity in Diversity * Celebrating the Diversity of Team USA.” The calendar highlights “diversity” by assigning each month a highlight of an aspect of diversity. Starting in January, they are: World Braille Day, Black History Month, Women’s History Month, Earth Day, Asian American & Pacific Islander Heritage Month, LGBTQ+ Pride Month, Disability Pride Month, Women’s Equality Day, Hispanic Heritage Month, National Disability Employment Awareness Month, Native American Heritage Month and International Day of Persons with Disabilities. As a white American, straight male who is the direct descendant of nine male veterans of the American Revolution, we get no recognition. Not even Independence Day. Without them and their fellow soldiers, there would be no TEAM US (America).)

FAST COMPANY
— Democrats say “3 ways to become the dream employer new grads seek.” To attract, retain, and promote Democrats who were minority, female, younger, veteran, non-Protestant, non-German American, and/or those whose ancestors had not been in America for a long time, my Democrat superiors in the federal government wasted the careers of and got rid of their employees who were Republican, White, male, older, non-veteran, Protestant, German American, and/or those whose ancestors had been in America for a long time. I should write a book about that.

Democrats ever-increasingly run America and paint Democrats as having been the Union Army in the Civil War and paint Republicans as having been the Confederate Army in the Civil War.

— Democrats ever-increasingly promote stories about minorities and about women who have benefitted from Affirmative Action (AA), that is, who have benefitted from reparations, patronage, political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, and age discrimination. I challenge the Daily Kos to publish stories about those like me who have been forced to pay the price of AA by Democrats and by RINOs. I challenge the Daily Kos to publish my story. In 1971, when I was 22 years old, Oldsmobile withdrew a job offer that I had accepted saying that it had just agreed to stop hiring Whites to settle an EEOC complaint. Sadly, if not tragically for me, that directly resulted in my accepting a job offer from IRS. Especially after 1974, my Democrat IRS superiors used AA to promote over me my coworkers who were minority, female, and/or veteran and a) who had less job-related work experience than I had, b) who had less job-related education than I had, and/or c) who had not taken the CPA examination, let alone passed it. I earned an MBA from Loyola in 1976 and I passed the CPA examination on my first attempt in 1979. In 1980, because I was not a Democrat, minority, female, veteran. and/or younger, GAO forced me to suffer a $21,863/year (21%) pay cut in today’s dollars to transfer from IRS to GAO. My Democrat GAO superiors gave me unfair job assignments, performance expectations, and performance appraisals. They assigned me to supervised all their most problematic employees. The kept me off audits of IRS for all but 3 of the almost 18 years that I worked for GAO. They delayed my promotions and never promoted me beyond GS-13. They used AA to promote over me my coworkers who were minority, female, and/or veteran and a) who had less job-related work experience than I had, b) who had less job-related education than I had, and/or c) who had not taken the CPA or Certified Internal Auditor (CIA) examinations, let alone passed them. I earned a master’s degree in accounting from DePaul in 1980, I passed the CIA 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, and I earned a master’s degree in financial markets and trading from IIT in 1997. They always ranked me in the bottom half of my coworkers for pay-for-performance purposes. They forced me to take their early retirement “offer” in 1997 and gave my job and my preferred corner office to my Black subordinate. The Milton Township Republican Organization, DuPage County Republican Central Committee, Illinois Republican Party, Wheaton, Wheaton Park District, Wheaton Chamber of Commerce, Milton Township, DuPage County, Illinois, TAPROOT Republicans of Illinois, Illinois Center Right Coalition, American Association of Political Consultants Midwest Chapter, etc. have all taken many big adverse actions against me that they would never had taken against me if I was a minority, female, veteran, and/or younger.
