TOWNHALL
— Biden Chooses New IRS Agents Over Border Security – Jenny Beth Martin (COMMENT: IRS hired me in 1971, when I was 22 years old, because IRS could not find a qualified Democrat, minority, female, or veteran who would take the job. I took the job because I was unemployed. Firestone Stores had just rudely fired me because I had accepted a job offer from Oldsmobile. But Oldsmobile withdrew that job offer saying that it had just agreed to stop hiring Whites to settle an EEOC complaint. Other reasons why I took the job included I was living with and helping support my mother and brother; my father had died suddenly in 1969. I started IRS with almost 3 years of full-time federal seniority that I had gained working part-time for the Post Office while I attended college. If I knew back then how strongly so many hate IRS employees so strongly, I might not have taken the job. I should write a book about my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes who hate IRS employees the most.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: Disgusted Republican voters have simply given up on the corrupt Republican Party, which is infested with Socialist Democrats. The Republican party is failing on all fronts and the voter base has lost confidence and quit. Case in point, over 82% of Republican Voters in Florida 28th Congressional District did not even bother to vote in the Primary. The corrupt Republican Party continues to prop-up failing RINO Carlos Gimenez otherwise known as a Socialist Democrat. Gimenez has a long record of supporting radical socialist policy, dating back to his time as Miami-Dade Mayor. As Miami-Dade Mayor, RINO Gimenez locked down and destroyed small businesses during Covid. Gimenez was also tainted with corruption and ethics accusations including unauthorized business dealings with Communist China. In Washington, D.C., RINO Gimenez has voted with Nancy Pelosi and the radical leftists. Gimenez defended disgraced Liz Cheney after she voted in favor of the ‘Sham Impeachment’ against Donald Trump. RINO Gimenez has openly voted the radical Democrats in Congress on ‘Unconstitutional Issues’ too many times and continues to support a socialist agenda:)

— Leftist Plainfield Illinois Teacher Says Quiet Part Outloud. Accidentally Admits Easy Way to Purge Wokeism in Schools – Warner Todd Huston (COMMENT: What helps parents find out if those who teach their children tell their children to not tell their parents what they are being taught?)
https://www.westernjournal.com/leftist-teacher-says-quiet-part-outloud-accidentally-admits-easy-way-purge-wokeism-schools/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: A woke Illinois middle school teacher recently admitted that she routinely lies to parents about what she is teaching children in a video that should not only act as a warning to parents, but also as a road map to eliminating this dangerous, anti-American leftism that is so pervasive in our public school systems. . .This is evidence that she is purposefully driving a wedge between parents and kids and attempting to eliminate parental influence in education. . .The teacher glumly noted that one of her leaders said, “Hey, there might be a law that comes down that says eventually you could get sued for doing that.” . . .Still, this is the perfect path toward eliminating this garbage. Sue them. Sue them. And sue them again until this dangerous behavior by woke teachers ends, and teachers like this one begin to “exit teaching.” Once precedents are set that affirm teachers have no right to eliminate parents from education, the better it will be for the nation’s children who will finally be able to get back to learning instead of being subjected to left-wing indoctrination. This teacher did reveal the rot infesting our public schools. But she also helped us see a way toward surgically removing it.)

Ever-increasingly, according to anti-conservative Democrat, Libertarian, Green, Independent, and RINO political consultants in Illinois, a) to win in Illinois, Republican candidates need votes from those who will never vote for Republicans and b) to win in Illinois, Republican candidates need to get votes from those who are moderate, liberal, Trump-haters, unpatriotic, Democrat, Libertarian, Green, Independent, RINO, minority, female, younger, LGBTQ, unmarried, poor, Second Amendment-rejecters, citizens of foreign countries, non-Christian, non-Protestant, non-Italian American, non-German American, and/or those whose ancestors have not been in America for a long time BY DUMPING VOTERS WHO ARE conservative, Trump-supporters, patriotic, Republican, White, male, older, heterosexual, married, non-poor, Second Amendment-supporters, American, Christian, Protestant, Italian American, German American, and/or those whose ancestors have been in America for a long time. Ever-increasingly, according to anti-conservative Democrat, Libertarian, Green, Independent, and RINO political consultants in Illinois, to win in Illinois, Republican candidates a) need to dump the individual responsibility, traditional marriage/family, right to life, immigration, illegal drugs, Second Amendment, and equal opportunity (no race or gender based preference giving) planks in the Republican Party platform; b) need to promote dependency on government, dependency on charity, LGBTQ, abortion, mass/illegal immigration, booze, gambling, pot, and other vices, abolition of the First and Second Amendments, patronage, political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination (Affirmative Action, Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, CRT, 1619, BLM, reparations, replacement theory, wokeness/wokeism), and/or age discrimination; and/or c) need to hint/imply/argue/shout that they are anti-religious, anti-conservative, and/or anti-Republican.)

NEW YORK TIMES
— What You Need to Know About Biden’s Student Loan Forgiveness Plan. President Biden’s move means the student loan balances of millions of people could fall by as much as $20,000. This F.A.Q. explains how it will work. – Ron Lieber and Tara Siegel Bernard (COMMENT: Are you low income? My wife and I are low income because our joint income is under $250,000/year. I was low income until I was in my 40s in the 1990s when I started earning more than $125,000/year in today’s dollars.)
https://www.nytimes.com/2022/08/24/business/biden-student-loan-forgiveness.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Individuals who are single and earn under $125,000 will qualify for the $10,000 in debt cancellation. If you’re married and file your taxes jointly or are a head of household, you qualify if your income is under $250,000.)
— Focusing on Past Sins May Distract From Today’s Injustices – Jay Caspian Kang (COMMENT: Expect that ever-increasingly, if you are a Republican who is conservative, White, male, older, Protestant, and/or German American, the longer that your ancestors have been in America, the more that Democrats, Libertarians, Greens, Independents, and RINOs will demonize you, denigrate you, and condemn you.)

USA TODAY
— Biden to shrink discretionary income: What is it? Why it matters in student loan repayment. – Medora Lee (COMMENT: What have you spend less of your discretionary income on than your peers? I have spent far less on immediate pleasures. I have spent nothing on pets.)
https://www.usatoday.com/story/money/personalfinance/2022/08/24/discretionary-income-biden-student-loans-explained/7889028001/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: What is discretionary income? Discretionary income is the money that’s left after paying taxes and essential cost-of-living expenses. It can be used however you want – to dine out, pay for streaming services or tickets to movies or sporting events, for example. Don’t confuse that with disposable income, which is the money you have after paying only taxes. Since you haven’t paid for your basic necessities yet, disposable income is larger than discretionary income.)

If I had been involved in Republican politics when I took courses at UIC 1966-1968 and 1971 or at NIU 1969-1970, the Democrats who ran IRS in 1971 would not have offered me a job in 1971. If I had been involved in Republican politics when I took graduate business courses at Loyola 1972-1976 or graduate accounting courses at DePaul 1976-1980, the Democrats who ran GAO in 1980 would not have offered me a job in 1980. I would have gotten involved in Republican politics much sooner than I did after my Democrat GAO superiors forced me to take their early retirement ‘offer” in 1997 when I was 49 years old if I had not been so deeply involved in Diersen v. GAO. SEE: https://gopillinois.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/09/DiersenGAOFifthAmendedComplaint.pdf Consequently, I did not get appointed as an Republican Assistant Precinct Committeeman until 1999, I did not get appointed as a Republican Precinct Committeeman until December of 1999, I did not run for Republican Precinct Committeeman until 2000, I did not become the Milton Township Republican Organization webmaster until 2000, I did not become the GOPUSA Illinois Editor until 2000, etc.)

— Who benefits from Biden’s student loan forgiveness plan, how much debt could be canceled. The amount of debt canceled depends on whether the borrower received a Pell grant to attend college. – CNN (COMMENT: Did you get a Pell grant? If there had been Pell grants in the 1960s, I wonder if I would have gotten one. My grades at Crete-Monee High School 1964-1966 suffered because I worked as many hours that I could washing dishes in the basement of the S.S. Kresge in Chicago Heights to pay for a new 1966 Pontiac Tempest Sprint to drive to/from my parents’ Crete home to classes at UIC. My grades at UIC 1966-1968 and at NIU in 1969 suffered because I worked as many hours that I could for the Park Forest Post Office to pay for college expenses and for a new 1968 Oldsmobile 442 and for a new 1969 Dodge Charger SE that I drove to/from my parents’ home in Crete and UIC and NIU classes.)

It is their failure/refusal to oppose the promotion of dependency on government, dependency on charity, LGBTQ, abortion, mass/illegal immigration, booze, gambling, pot, and other vices, abolition of the First and Second Amendments, patronage, political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination (Affirmative Action, Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, CRT, 1619, BLM, reparations, replacement theory, wokeness/wokeism), and/or age discrimination.)

AMAC
— Race Matching and Other Crazy Theories Destroying Our Schools
https://amac.us/race-matching-and-other-crazy-theories-destroying-our-schools/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The two biggest teachers unions — the National Education Association and the American Federation of Teachers — are pushing racial division. A new Minneapolis union contract specifies that when layoffs are needed, white teachers will get axed before nonwhite teachers with the same seniority, to increase the chances nonwhite students have a nonwhite teacher. Citing left-wing pedagogy that encourages “race matching,” defenders of the contract claim Black students learn better with Black teachers. The contract violates the rights of white teachers, but it’s also unjust to students of color. Race matching doesn’t prepare them for the real world any more than labeling them victims does. What employer can deal with new hires who need “safe spaces” and a boss whose race matches their own? Students raised to expect these things will be doomed, and our nation will be, too.)

Because I am all of the aforesaid, I would have been chopped much sooner if I had not a) earned a master’s degree in accounting from DePaul in 1980, b) passed the Certified Internal Auditor examination on my first attempt in 1981, c) became a licensed CPA in 1981, d) became a Certified Fraud Examiner in 1990, e) became Certified Government Financial Manager in 1994, f) became a Certified Financial Services Auditor in 1996, g) became a Forensic Accountant in 1996, and h) earned a master’s degree in financial markets and trading from IIT in 1997.)

— Mayor Lori Lightfoot blasts ad from pro-Bailey political committee that ‘darkens’ her image – Dan Petrella, Jeremy Gorner and Gregory Pratt
https://www.chicagotribune.com/politics/elections/ct-lightfoot-blasts-tv-commercial-governors-race-20220824-746luxbypbhfdmldurib3epf2a-story.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The ad was created by the independent expenditure political action committee People Who Play By The Rules, a Florida-based PAC headed by right-wing radio host Dan Proft and funded by Richard Uihlein, the Lake Forest packaging magnate and conservative megadonor. Since the ad debuted Aug. 15, People Who Play By The Rules has reported spending more than $1 million on TV ads in Chicago and other markets, according to state campaign finance records. In an email Tuesday evening, Proft called Lightfoot’s racism allegation “an insane assertion” from a politician who is trying to deflect attention away from Chicago’s crime issues and denied the ad changed the tone of Lightfoot’s skin. “We did nothing to her pigmentation just as we did nothing to pigmentation of our pasty blowhard of a governor,” Proft said in the statement. “The video of Lightfoot was pulled from the web from her City Club speech.” Uihlein gave the PAC $8 million during the Republican primary, much of which was spent aiding Bailey by attacking the GOP credentials of Aurora Mayor Richard Irvin, one of Bailey’s top opponents in the six-man race. While the PAC is prohibited from coordinating directly with any candidate, Uihlein also gave more than $9 million directly to Bailey’s campaign. Since the primary, the Uline packaging supplies founder has given $20 million to Proft’s committee but nothing to Bailey’s campaign, state records show. Despite the committee supporting Bailey’s candidacy, his campaign noted in a statement Tuesday that it has “no communication with or control” over the PAC. Bailey spokesman Joe DeBose said Pritzker and Lightfoot have control over crime afflicting Chicago “and they should be more concerned with the people being killed and set on fire in the city.” The ad also warns that because of Pritzker “the lawlessness of Chicago will soon be the law statewide,” a nod to a provision of the 700-page Safety, Accountability, Fairness and Equity-Today law, or SAFE-T Act, which instituted a host of criminal justice reforms in Illinois.)

CHICAGO SUN-TIMES
— Lightfoot accuses conservative PAC of darkening her skin in TV ad about Chicago crime: ‘News flash. I’m Black and I’m proud’ Conservative Dan Proft told the Sun-Times in a text statement that Mayor Lori Lightfoot’s accusation about his PAC’s ad was “an insane assertion,” adding “We did nothing to her pigmentation just as we did nothing to [the] pigmentation of our pasty blowhard of a governor.” – Tina Sfondeles
https://chicago.suntimes.com/elections/2022/8/23/23319291/mayor-lightfoot-accuses-conservative-pac-darkening-skin-race-dog-whistle-dan-proft-dick-uihlein
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Proft told the Sun-Times in a text statement that Lightfoot’s accusation was “an insane assertion — and par for the course from inveterate race hustlers like Lightfoot and Pritzker who are trying to misdirect attention away from the fact that she has turned the city over to repeat, violent predators and he aims to do the same statewide with his elimination of cash bail.” In a more pointed element of a lengthy statement, Proft said, “We did nothing to her pigmentation just as we did nothing to [the] pigmentation of our pasty blowhard of a governor.” Proft said the video was pulled from her City Club of Chicago speech, although side by side comparisons with videos of the speech on You Tube appear to show the mayor’s skin darker in the brief snippet used in the TV ad. . .The PAC has spent $400,000 on the Chicago TV ad buy, with another $100,000 for a statewide radio ad with the same talking points. The ad is intended to criticize the SAFE-T Act, a criminal justice package that Pritzker signed into law in an attempt to address longstanding public safety issues and police distrust. Panned by Republicans for its provision to end cash bail, it goes into effect next year. . .The ad notably does not mention Bailey by name, despite Uihlein being one of Bailey’s top supporters in the primary, having contributed $9 million directly to his campaign between February and March. But the funding strategy changed in July, when Uihlein instead gave money in two contributions of a combined $20 million to the PAC. It means that the cash strapped Bailey campaign is relying on messaging from the PAC, even if it’s in ads the Republican nominee has no legal control over and don’t even mention his name. Bailey’s campaign had just $363,918.42 cash on hand at the end of a required filing period on June 30, according to the Illinois State Board of Elections. But Bailey has received thousands in contributions since, including a $50,000 contribution from businessman and former GOP congressional candidate Vincent Kolber. Still, it’s nowhere near the millions he received during the primary, directly from Uihlein. Bailey’s campaign, which has not yet begun airing TV ads with just 77 days until the general election, said they have had no communication with Proft’s political action committee, as required by federal law. “We have no communication with or control over this PAC, but Pritzker and Lightfoot have control over the skyrocketing crime in Chicago, and they should be more concerned with the people being killed and set on fire in the city,” Bailey spokesman Joe DeBose said in a statement. “Darren Bailey’s focus is making Illinois safe and affordable for everyone.”)

The mayors are Richard Veenstra of Addison, Frank Saverino of Carol Stream, Dave Kaptain of Elgin, Craig Johnson of Elk Grove Village, Rod Craig of Hanover Park, Bill McLeod of Hoffman Estates, Jeff Pruyn of Itasca, Gopal Lalmalani of Oak Brook, Tom Dailly of Schaumburg, David Pileski of Roselle and Nick Cuzzone of Villa Park. All of their communities are within the 8th District. . .Dargis responded with a list of endorsements by current and former elected officials, including state Rep. Amy Grant of Wheaton, state Rep. Dan Ugaste of Geneva, state Sen. Don DeWitte of St. Charles and Republican U.S. Sen. Tom Cotton of Arkansas. “My opponent’s endorsements confirm what we already know: He is representing politicians and boosting his own political career, not doing his job in representing the best interests of the constituents in the 8th District,” Dargis stated.)

REASON
— For Many Americans, Cancel Culture is Self-Inflicted – J.D. TUCCILLE (COMMENT: What has caused you to be cancelled? For me, it has been my promotion of the individual responsibility, traditional marriage/family, right to life, immigration, illegal drugs, Second Amendment, and equal opportunity planks in the Republican Party platform. For me, it has been my opposition to promoting dependency on government, dependency on charity, LGBTQ, abortion, mass/illegal immigration, booze, gambling, pot, and other vices, abolition of the First and Second Amendments, patronage, political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination (Affirmative Action, Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, CRT, 1619, BLM, reparations, replacement theory, wokeness/wokeism), and age discrimination. For me, it has been my refusing to be manipulated or dominated by my critics/opponents, my refusing to glorify and praise them, my refusing to pander to them, my refusing to serve as one of their operatives or dupes, my refusing to cover up their wrong doing, and my refusing to give them money.)

https://www.americanthinker.com/blog/2022/08/editor_for_the_new_yorker_advertises_his_white_savior_complex.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: So what is the White Savior mentality? Defined by the online publication Health, the complex is: [A]n ideology that is acted upon when a white person, from a position of superiority, attempts to help or rescue a BIPOC (black, indigenous, and people of color) person or community. Whether this is done consciously or unconsciously, people with this complex have the underlying belief that they know best or that they have the skills that BIPOC people don’t have….)
— Tired of the ‘Rank and File’ – Steve Feinstein (COMMENT: I should write a book about how my Democrat GAO, IRS, and Post Office superiors, supervisors, coworkers, and subordinates acted as operatives for the Democrat Party. I would focus on the adverse actions that they took against the few remaining Republican employees in those agencies.)
https://www.americanthinker.com/articles/2022/08/tired_of_the_rank_and_file.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: If there is one thing that progressive Left governance has accomplished in the last two Democrat administrations, it’s been their complete (and sadly, likely irreversible) destruction of formerly non-partisan governmental organizations. The FBI, DoJ, IRS, and CIA used to comprise the bedrock foundation of a just and equitable American society, ensuring an unbiased legal system, providing national security and pursuing America’s best interests around the world. Regrettably, that is no longer the case. These formerly neutral national institutions are now blatantly and unapologetically nothing more than extensions of the Democrat Party. With their actions predictably covered and excused by the mainstream liberal media, these establishments have taken to proactively opposing and undercutting all manner of conservative politicians and initiatives.)

NATIONAL REVIEW
— ‘Anti-Racism’ and Common Sense – PETER KIRSANOW
https://www.nationalreview.com/corner/anti-racism-and-common-sense/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: A short time ago, the National Museum of African American History sported a poster that most normal adults would describe as moronic if not blatantly racist. The poster purported to list indices of “Whiteness,” such as hard work, individualism, objectivity, nuclear family, respect for authority, and delayed gratification. These weren’t presented as universal qualities to strive for regardless of race. Rather, these were tools of oppression, contributors to unfairness, and characteristics of white supremacy.)

— At the Jan. 6 hearings, race isn’t discussed much. Still, it’s a central issue. – Sandhya Dirks (COMMENT: Democrats have declared a Second Civil War against Republicans. Ever-increasingly, Democrats a) paint themselves as being the Union army in this war and b) paint Republicans as being the Confederate army in this war.)
https://www.npr.org/2022/08/23/1117993012/january-6th-hearings-race
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The Lost Cause is the racist myth that justifies chattel slavery. It tells a false story of generous slave owners and happy slaves, as well as lies that the Civil War wasn’t really fought over slavery — it was about states’ rights. Everything that follows, the nadir of American race relations, the violent dismantling of Reconstruction, Jim Crow, the rise of the Ku Klux Klan, the erections of Confederate monuments and the conflation of a treasonous Confederate flag with patriotism, are all in the name of this Lost Cause.)

— Stupid bureaucrat tricks: New York tries to get rid of migrants seeking services through red tape – Monica Showalter (COMMENT: Why hasn’t Abbott bused any illegals to Chicago?)
https://www.americanthinker.com/blog/2022/08/stupid_bureaucrat_tricks_new_york_tries_to_get_rid_of_migrants_seeking_services_through_red_tape.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The great migrant wave continues under Joe Biden’s no-borders policy, with nearly five million foreigners now in the country without authorization, according to a new study from the Federation for American Immigration Reform (FAIR). A few thousand have arrived in New York (and Washington), the product of Texas Gov. Greg Abbott’s idea to bus some on a voluntary basis to the nation’s pre-eminent sanctuary cities, which is also the territory of the leftist pols who promote illegal immigration into U.S. hardest. For New York, a mere 4,000 of them has created massive problems, and there’s no sign this load will get any lighter. It turns out that America’s largest city can’t handle even a mere 4,000 of them, with all their needs for hotels, transport, legal representation, food, education, diapers, laundry service, cell phones, medical care, school supplies, and other free stuff of its advertised socialist Utopia. One can only imagine what it is like for the border states which are forced to take in hundreds of thousands migrants arriving daily into the U.S. border states with no consent whatsoever, but pay no attention to them. This is supposedly can-do New York.)

The book would include a) why I accepted IRS’s job offer in 1971 when I was 22 years old; b) why I became ever-increasingly critical of IRS’s discrimination against its employees who were Republican, White, male, and/or non-veteran who IRS had not promoted to GS-13 (currently $104,915) by age 25, GS-14 (currently $123,978) by age 30, GS-15 (currently $145,831) by age 35, and Senior Executive Service (currently $176,300) by age 40; c) how IRS disallowed my travel vouchers to punish me in1974; d) how IRS forced the IRS manager to transfer to Texas in 1975 who had promoted me in 1974, 1973, and 1972 to punish me; f) how IRS disallowed my education deductions to punish me in 1978, and g) how IRS never promoted me beyond GS-12 to punish me.)

— The accounting profession is making bold moves to increase diversity (COMMENT: Of course, to increase Diversity, the accounting profession is overjoyed that my Democrat GAO superiors in 1997 a) forced me, a 49-year-old White male draft-avoiding Protestant 100% German American whose ancestors had been in America since 1844 to take their early retirement “offer” and b) gave my job and my preferred corner office to my Black CPA subordinate. Of course, the accounting profession is also overjoyed that previously, my Democrat GAO superiors a) always ranked me in the bottom half of my coworkers for pay-for-performance purposes, b) did not promote me beyond GS-13, c) forced the GAO manager to retire in 1987 who had arranged my transfer from IRS, who had gotten me assigned to audits of IRS in 1986, and who had promoted me in 1986, d) kept me off audits of IRS for all but 3 of the almost 18 years that I worked for GAO, e) gave me unfair job assignments, performance expectations, and performance appraisals, and f) forced me to take a $20,901 (21%) pay cut in today’s dollars to transfer from IRS to GAO in 1980.)

I started working for them in 1971 when I was 22 years old and became ever-increasingly critical of how they discriminated against their employees who were Republican, White, male, and/or non-veteran who they had not promoted to GS-13 (currently $104,915) by age 25, GS-14 (currently $123,978) by age 30, GS-15 (currently $145,831) by age 35, and Senior Executive Service (currently $176,300) by age 40. In 1974, to silence me, they disallowed my travel vouchers. In 1978, to silence me, they disallowed my education deductions. I should write a book about the aforesaid.)

The book would include a) why I accepted IRS’s job offer in 1971 when I was 22 years old; b) why I became ever-increasingly critical of IRS’s discrimination against its employees who were Republican, White, male, and/or non-veteran who IRS had not promoted to GS-13 (currently $104,915) by age 25, GS-14 (currently $123,978) by age 30, GS-15 (currently $145,831) by age 35, and Senior Executive Service (currently $176,300) by age 40; c) how IRS disallowed my travel vouchers to punish me in1974; d) how IRS forced the IRS manager to transfer to Texas in 1975 who had promoted me in 1974, 1973, and 1972 to punish me; f) how IRS disallowed my education deductions to punish me in 1978, and g) how IRS never promoted me beyond GS-12 to punish me.)
