What sins did your parents, your grandparents, and the rest or your ancestors commit?  Democrats believe that Republicans should be punished for the sins that their ancestors committed. Democrats believe that the longer that a Republican’s ancestors have been in America, a) the more that they benefited from their ancestors’ discrimination against minorities and against females, b) the more that they should pay the price of Affirmative Action, Diversity, and Inclusion, and c) the more reparations that they should pay.  What does Trump have to say about that?)

To vote for Clinton is to promote Islam.  Further, ever-increasingly, those who voted for Clinton have made it very clear that they are going to get rid of those like me who voted for Trump.)

— Inside Trump’s freewheeling vetting operation  The transition team’s approach is in marked contrast to that of past presidential transitions. – NANCY COOK and ANDREW RESTUCCIA  (DIERSEN: What do you know about the vetting process used by your Republican township/ward party organization, by your Republican county party organization, and by the Illinois Republican Party?)
http://www.politico.com/story/2016/11/donald-trump-transition-vetting-231786
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Nunes added that he isn’t aware of any lengthy questionnaire that Pompeo filled out, as is standard with major nominees. . . .Trump’s freewheeling approach is in marked contrast with that of past presidential transition teams, who have subjected nominees to weeks — and sometimes months — of vetting that includes deep-dives into their finances, taxes, previous employment and personal relationships. Barack Obama’s transition operation began contacting potential nominees months before he won the presidency — in the summer of 2008. After the election, the team tapped dozens of lawyers — many working on a volunteer basis — to help vet nominees and process their paperwork, according to former members of the team. . .Few of D.C.’s top political lawyers, typically hired to shepherd appointees through the process, have seen a copy of the Trump transition team’s vetting questionnaire, an internal document that past transition teams have used to uncover potentially embarrassing details of nominees’ past. Obama’s vetting document included 63 detailed questions about financial interests, past writings, professional experience and even social media posts.)

LAS VEGAS JOURNAL REVIEW
— Reforming the bureaucracy – Editorial  (DIERSEN: It seems that the only thing that those who support Trump and those who oppose Trump agree on is their hatred of federal employees like I was for almost 18 years, and by extension, their hatred of federal retirees like I have ben for more than 19 years. What is your attitude toward federal employees and toward federal retirees?  On what do you base your attitude?)
http://www.reviewjournal.com/opinion/editorials/editorial-reforming-the-bureaucracy
(FROM THE EDITORIAL: Incompetent or slothful bureaucrats may be among the biggest losers in a Donald Trump presidency.  Newsmax reports that the president-elect hopes to make it a top priority to remake the bureaucracy by looking at a hiring freeze and “addressing automatic raises [and] the inability to fire workers who perform poorly.” The Free Beacon noted last year that it takes almost six months to fire a federal employee — assuming the agency follows the proper protocol. A 2015 report from the General Accounting Office revealed that many supervisors opt to tolerate poor performance rather than to undertake a long, drawn-out process and risk litigation. The office found that the federal government dismissed only 3,489 employees for substandard work in 2013, just 0.18 percent of all personnel.)

http://thefederalistpapers.org/us/the-difference-between-growing-up-in-the-1960s-compared-to-2016
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Seth Connell reports that in August of this year, campus carry went into effect on Texas’ public college campuses, enabling students and staff with valid concealed handgun licenses to legally carry their firearms. Predictably, leftists freaked out at the idea of people legally carrying firearms in their “safe spaces.”  As we reported back in August, the most famous form of protest on Texas college campuses was “Cocks Not Glocks,” a movement where students who opposed campus carry took adult sex toys with them all across the campus. Despite these protestations, campus carry is in effect in Texas, and there is not mass murder happening in dorms, classrooms, or professors’ offices. Who’d have thunk, right?  Well, it turns out that “Cocks no Glocks” is not going away any time soon. In fact, they have been invited to The White House as a kind of reward for their childish, bratty temper tantrums.)

November 10 Morning Edition

CHICAGO TRIBUNE
— Why Trump’s big win means problems for Gov. Rauner – Rick Pearson and John Byrne  (DIERSEN: In Illinois, in your county, in your township/ward, and in your municipality, after Trump won the Republican nomination, which “Republican” activists, candidates, elected officials, party leaders, major donors, political consultants, etc. a) failed/refused to support Trump and b) demonized, denigrated, or condemned Trump and/or his supporters?  One could argue that the aforesaid should immediately resign from any government and/or political positions that they might hold as Republicans.  Political parties exist to help elect candidates who can and will defend and advance their platform.  Trump has promised to defend and advance the Republican Party platform.)
http://www.chicagotribune.com/news/local/politics/ct-bruce-rauner-donald-trump-met-1110-20161109-story.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The impending arrival of Donald Trump in the White House is creating a strange political landscape for Bruce Rauner to navigate at the governor’s mansion. The Republican governor spent the better part of a year refusing to discuss the eventual GOP presidential nominee and wouldn’t even speak Trump’s name. At the time, Rauner was trying to walk the tightrope of not providing Democrats with fodder to attack him during their budget battle while also not invoking Trump’s wrath by directly criticizing him. Now not only will Rauner continue to be asked to weigh in on Trump and every controversial move the future president makes, but he’ll be doing so with his own 2018 re-election bid at stake. Rauner remains the undisputed leader of the Illinois Republican Party, and Trump enjoyed widespread support Downstate in Tuesday’s election, even if he lost badly to Democrat Hillary Clinton in Chicago and the suburbs. Trump won 92 of 102 Illinois counties and racked up 50- and 60-percentage point margins in far southern Illinois. Disagreeing with Trump carries great political risk for Rauner among a key voting bloc two years from now. The great irony of Tuesday’s election for the governor is that as much as he and other top Illinois Republicans avoided or ran away from their party’s presidential nominee, Trump and his strong showing Downstate is a big reason Rauner was able to cut into Democratic nemesis Michael Madigan’s supermajority. Rauner wasn’t quite ready to field a spate of Trump questions the day after the election. The governor has kept a low public profile the past few weeks, and that continued Wednesday. His office issued a statement that didn’t mention the president-elect and said only that after “a long, grueling campaign cycle, both nationally and locally,” it was time to “put the election behind us” and “come together.”)

http://www.theherald-news.com/2016/11/09/trump-lost-in-will-county-but-support-was-strong/a1ltfj5/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Donald Trump’s victory may have stunned some, but not everyone. Even in Illinois, the only old Rust Belt state that went for Hillary Clinton, some were sensing a strong undercurrent for Trump. “I talk to a lot of people in my position,” said Bolingbrook Mayor Roger Claar, referring to conversations with other mayors. “One out of 50 was voting for Clinton. The vast majority were going to vote for Trump, but they weren’t going to talk about it because Clinton’s supporters were so vocal.” Claar was an open Trump supporter who threw a fundraiser for the candidate and was a Trump delegate at the Republican convention. But, Claar said supporting Trump could bring on a backlash that many wanted to avoid. Clinton won Will County with just less than 50 percent of the vote compared with Trump’s 44 percent. But Trump got almost 130,000 votes, and not all those voters were quiet about who they were supporting. Will County Board member Steve Balich, R-Homer Glen, said one question he faced frequently as he campaigned door-to-door was how he was voting for president. “Not everyone wanted to talk,” Balich said. “But when they did, usually they said, ‘Are you for Trump?’ ”  Balich was. But even the party establishment didn’t want local candidates to talk about Trump, he said. “The establishment Republicans were saying, ‘We can’t win Illinois. Don’t talk about Trump,’ ” Balich said. Signs of support  Balich not only talked about Trump, he passed out 350 Trump campaign signs because people wanted them. Balich started out with 100 signs he bought from the Will County Republican Party, which obtained them from the Trump campaign. After passing out the first 100 signs, he said, “I went back and got another 200. I passed all those out. I went back and got another 50 and passed them out.” There was speculation that Trump would hurt local Republicans by being on the top of the ballot. But in the days before the election, Will County Republican Party Chairwoman Kathy Havel said she expected Trump would help local candidates, noting the high demand for signs. “I thought he helped a lot,” Balich said of his campaign in District 7, which saw him re-elected. “But I didn’t run away from him. I don’t know what other people did.”)

To get her to do their dirty work, that is, to get her to help waste my career and to help force me to retire, my Democrat superiors, supervisors, coworkers, and subordinates stressed to her a) that while she was a woman, I was a man, b) that while she was a liberal Democrat, I was a conservative Republican, c) that while she was Jewish, I was Missouri Synod Lutheran, d) that while she was Russian national origin, I was German national origin, e) that while her ancestors were recent immigrants, my ancestors had been in America since the 1840s, f) that while she was younger, I was older, g) that while she had children to worry about, I did not, h) that I opposed gender based preference giving, i) that I opposed age discrimination, j) that I never made GS-14, k) that etc.)

CONSERVATIVE REPUBLICAN NEWS
— IS THIS THE LAST MAJORITY WHITE ELECTION? (DIERSEN: Since the 1960s, with Affirmative Action, with Diversity, and with Inclusion, Whites have given minorities a tremendous amount of preference. As minorities become the majority, how will minorities treat Whites?)
http://conservativerepublicannews.com/2016/11/07/is-this-the-last-majority-white-election/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: According to a WalletHub survey on the impact of minorities in America, 2016 is the last chance Republicans stand to win the White House… until 2060: “The study used two models based on population projections and matched to the overwhelming 65 percent minority turnout for President Obama in 2012 and the underwhelming 50 percent response for George W. Bush in 2004. The bottom line: In no presidential election from 2020-60 do the Republicans win. The closest the Republicans come is 2020 when the Democratic vote under the 2004 model reaches 50.48 percent, WalletHub said. The widest gap is projected for 2060, when the minority population will be its biggest, delivering the Democrats 58.8 percent of the vote.” The analysis pretty much states the obvious: that the growth of liberal-leaning minorities is outpacing the growth of both minority and white Republicans. It’s unclear, however, whether WalletHub’s survey accounted for voter fraud, or even acknowledges that it’s a real problem.)

— THOSE WHO CAN’T PRODUCE REGULATE THOSE WHO CAN – Seton Motley  (DIERSEN: I worked for the federal government for almost 30 years.  Motley would say that I became a federal employee and that I stayed a federal employee because I cannot produce. He would say that while I was a federal employee, I was a professional scold, a busybody, a bureaucrat, clueless, feckless, a know-nothing, and an ideological-tyrant. In my defense, in 1971 when I was 22 years old, if Oldsmobile had not withdrawn its job offer that I had accepted, I would have become an Oldsmobile employee and not a federal employee.  Once you become a federal employee, it is all but impossible to get a job in the private sector because private sector employers hate federal employees more than Motley does.  Further, in my defense, I passed the CPA and Certified Internal Auditor examinations on my first attempt, I earned four other professional certifications, I became a licensed CPA, and I earned master’s degrees in business, accounting, and finance.)
http://conservativerepublicannews.com/2016/11/07/those-who-can-do-those-who-cant-regulate-those-who-can/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: And that’s where government comes in. Populated in far, far too many instances by people steeped not in the pursuit of excellence – but in its persecution. If these people were actually good at productive work – they would be doing productive work. But they’re not. So they’re professional scolds and busybodies – government bureaucrats lording over those doing productive work. Those who can – do. Those who can’t – regulate those who can. . . .Yet a bunch of anti-free-market, clueless, feckless government bureaucrats are pretending it is. So Schneiderman can continue his years-long effort to make Exxon’s life miserable. Here’s a thought: How about we rein in the know-nothing, ideological-tyrant bureaucrats? And let those skilled in the art of productive work – get back to engaging in productive work. Unhindered and un-harassed by the know-nothing, ideological-tyrant bureaucrats. Our economy, our nation – and the world – would be so much the better for it.)

The all-purpose revenue ordinance that Emanuel introduced at Tuesday’s City Council meeting falls far short of that demand.

My father is the first Republican who’s gone out and said, ‘Listen, what’s happened to the African-American community is horrible and I’m going to take care of it.'”)

Further, during my last 8 years, my boss’s boss was a female Democrat, and during my last 4 years, my boss was a female Democrat.  To get her to do their dirty work, my Democrat superiors, supervisors, coworkers, and subordinates stressed to her a) that while she was a liberal Democrat, I was a conservative Republican, b) that while she was Jewish, I was Missouri Synod Lutheran, c) that while she was Russian national origin, I was German national origin, d) that while her ancestors were recent immigrants, my ancestors had been in America since the 1840s, e) that while she was younger, I was older, f) that while she had children to worry about, I did not, g) that I opposed gender based preference giving, h) that I opposed age discrimination, i) that I never made GS-14, j) that etc.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: BEFORE YOU AGREE to work somewhere, check the boss’s political donations.

This was true even controlling for the associate’s gender, race, parental status, billable hours, and law-school ranking; the age, gender, and race of supervising partners; and the political orientation of other partners and the department head.)

THE ATLANTIC
— One Way to Ensure Equal Pay for Men and Women  The private sector doesn’t compensate women fairly. Can it learn anything from the federal hiring process? – ALEXIA FERNANDEZ CAMPBELL  (DIERSEN: In 1989, the Democrats who ran GAO started their pay-for-performance system a) to retain and to promote their employees who were Democrat, minority, female, and/or younger and b) to get rid of their employees who were Republican, White, male, older, and/or non-veteran.  Of course, obviously, needless-to-say, without question, under that system, my Democrat GAO superiors always ranked me in the lower half of my coworkers and never gave me any bonuses.)
http://www.theatlantic.com/business/archive/2016/11/how-the-government-mostly-closed-its-gender-pay-gap/506084/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: When employers come up with salaries, there are two different ways they think about how much a worker should earn. Jacque Simon, the public policy director for the American Federation of Government Employees (AFGE), a union, puts it this way: Should a salary be tied to the job itself, or to the individual hired to fill it? In the first scenario, employers decide what they are willing to pay for someone to carry out a certain role. In the second, the employer focuses more on the individual and what they are worth to an organization. Federal employers  fit into the first category, using a rigid pay scale similar to ones favored by labor unions. Labor unions view structured pay scales as a means of preventing discrimination based on gender, as well as age, race, and other categories. “Once you give supervisors in the federal government the ability to vary pay by individual, rather than job, they are going to reward the people they like the best,” says Simon. In the federal government, most white-collar jobs are governed by the General Schedule, which includes 15 general pay levels that vary based on the experience, skills, and education needed for a position. Each job opening is posted at one of these levels, so candidates can only negotiate within the minimum or maximum pay range (there are 10 steps within each level). The pay system, which was launched 1949, was designed to ensure that people with the same skills got paid the same salaries. Limiting salary negotiations benefits women because research shows that they are less likely to negotiate salaries, and are more likely to be penalized if they do. Also, giving hiring managers more discretion may introduce inadvertent biases when putting together an offer. This has been effective, but it still leaves room for some discretion, not all of it good. For example, some federal agencies base salary offers on what an applicant made at his or her previous job, which contributes to disparities in pay, according to the Office of Personnel Management, the federal agency that oversees hiring and payroll. So, this year, the office urged agencies to consider an applicant’s previous salary as only one of many factors in drawing up offers, because that number may be, as is often the case for female job candidates who left the workforce for several years, artificially depressed. (Though senior government executives are not paid within the General Schedule system, their pay scale is somewhat a continuation of it, with more discretion in pay negotiations.)

http://www.dailyherald.com/article/20161102/discuss/161109662/
(FROM THE EDITORIAL: The public pension crisis in Illinois is a runaway train. So when we see someone actually try to apply the brakes, we take notice. The DuPage County Forest Preserve District this week approved a sweeping series of changes to its employee pay policies that leaders predict will save the county $6 million over the next 20 years. That might not seem like a lot of money, but it’s not chump change. What it is an important step in the right direction. Just think of how this could mushroom if similar steps were taken in many of the other 6,900-plus taxing bodies in Illinois. A story today by staff writer Robert Sanchez lays out how forest preserve commissioners have decided to ratchet down an established bonus program and also put the brakes on lump-sum payouts to qualifying or retiring employees for unused sick time. “These changes will curb long-term spending, especially in the area of pension costs,” Commissioner Jeff Redick said, “and allow us to responsibly serve the taxpayers and both our current and future employees.” The district for years has handed out longevity-based bonuses to retiring or qualifying employees that averaged $15,000 to $20,000. You don’t find that in a lot of private-sector jobs. Not anymore. Nor do you find many companies that still — if ever — reimburse employees for unused sick time. The district isn’t going to take money from people already expecting it. Like companies that have eliminated their 401(k) contributions in lean times, those employees who already are in the bonus program — called a “retention incentive” program — will still get bonuses, but starting Jan. 1 they no longer will grow. Those who haven’t yet qualified for the bonus program never will. The district also is putting limits on lump-sum payments for sick days accrued after the start of next year. What is even more important is that the forest preserve district has decided to eliminate both the bonus and sick time payback from the calculation of pensions. That in itself is expected to save $4.5 million in pension liability over the next 20 years. In a time when pension payments in some cases are reaching a tipping point with operational costs for governmental bodies, it’s important to look toward ways in which the private sector has managed to stay afloat in tough financial times. Other taxing bodies should follow this example.)

http://www.huffingtonpost.com/entry/trump-katy-tur-florida-rally_us_581aa7b8e4b0c43e6c1e1795
(FROM THE ARTICLE: GOP nominee Donald Trump singled out NBC News reporter Katy Tur on Wednesday during a rally in Florida, continuing to taunt reporters covering his campaign. Tur has been embedded with the Trump campaign, following the candidate throughout the presidential race. Trump in the past has called out Tur publicly by name, and has referred to her as “Little Katy, third-rate journalist.” During his usual takedown of the “dishonest media” in Miami on Wednesday, Trump called out the press  – and specifically Tur – for being biased and not reporting fairly on his campaign. “We have massive crowds. They’re something happening. They’re not reporting it. Katy, you’re not reporting it, Katy.” Trump said to cheers. “But there’s something  happening, Katy. There’s something happening, Katy.” CNN host Wolf Blitzer last week asked Trump campaign manager Kellyanne Conway to talk to the Republican nominee about singling out reporters, especially those embedded with the campaign, citing safety concerns. “He points to them, he sort of eggs the crowd on to go after them,” Blitzer said. “There are a lot of young journalists. He shouldn’t be doing that.” Conway appeared on Blitzer’s CNN show later Wednesday and defended Trump, saying he didn’t intend to suggest that anyone be mean to Tur or to attack her. “After he did that . . . she was harassed by a lot of the people over there,” Blitzer said. “The last time we spoke, you told me you shared my concerns about the singling out of these embeds … You said you would talk to him. How did that conversation go?” “The conversation was very productive and I’ve also talked to NBC News today,” Conway said. “Look, we want fair coverage and we wan’t everybody to be safe at our rallies. I don’t appreciate a lot of the threats I get either from people who I guess are worried that we may actually win this thing.” After Trump taunted Tur, other journalists tweeted #ImWithTur in support of the NBC News reporter. Editor’s note: Donald Trump regularly incites political violence and is a serial liar, rampant xenophobe, racist, misogynist and birther who has repeatedly pledged to ban all Muslims – 1.6 billion members of an entire religion – from entering the U.S.)

SANGAMON SUN
— Illinois Council of Aging provides department updates – Lhalie Castillo  (DIERSEN: From what I see, virtually all people promote age discrimination until age discrimination first harms them personally in a big way.  Age discrimination first harmed me personally in a big way in 1974 when I was 25 years old. In the federal government, if you are a non-veteran White male, the federal government wastes your career gets rid of you if you do not make GS-13 (currently $92,632) by age 25, GS-14 (currently $109,463) by age 30, GS-15 (currently $128,759) by age 35, and Senior Executive Service (currently $160,300) by age 40.  While I made GS-12 (currently $77,899) by age 25, I did not make GS-13 until I was 38.  Because of that and because in 1988 I had become an active member in a class action lawsuit that charged the federal government with reverse discrimination, age discrimination, and retaliation, the federal government forced me to retire in 1997 when I was 49 years old.)

AMERICAN THINKER
— The Place of Race in Air Traffic Control – Dan Subotnik  (DIERSEN: Ever-increasingly, since the 1960s, to promote Affirmative Action, Diversity, and Inclusion, that is, to give preference to young minorities and to young females, the federal government has lowered its hiring and promotion standards, made those standards less objective, and made those standards more subjective.)
http://www.americanthinker.com/articles/2016/10/the_place_of_race_in_air_traffic_control.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Since we cannot be sure that the FAA can be trusted to put safety first, its initial mandate, one has to wonder whether diversity might be weighted too heavily.  The larger point here is that the FAA has not been straight with us. The first order of FAA business then should be to explain itself in full. Has technology replaced the need for technical skill?  If the FAA continues to stonewall, we are left with the kind of government arrogance that rallies people to Donald Trump and, to the extent that the FAA is training people who may not have competitive skills, to a distinct sense of foreboding. Dan Subotnik, Professor at Touro Law School, is author of “Toxic Diversity, Race, Gender, and Law Talk” (NYU) and many articles (the latest in Academic Questions).)

— In Defense of Politics, Now More Than Ever – Peter Wehner (DIERSEN: Do you have a degree in political science?  Because I do not, of course, obviously, needless-to-say, and without question, my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes viciously demonize me, denigrate me, and condemn me because of that.  In my defense, I worked for the federal government for almost 30 years, the last almost 18 years of which for GAO auditing many federal agencies, and the last 11 years of that at the GS-13 Step 1-10 levels, currently $92,632-$120,427. Further, I have been a Republican Precinct Committeeman since 1999, I have the best record by far for attending Milton Township Republican Central Committee (MTRCC) meetings and fundraisers, and I served as MTRCC’s webmaster for 6 years.  Further, I have been the GOPUSA Illinois Editor since 2000.)
