ABC7
— Democrats. Libertarians, Greens, Independents, and RINOs ever-increasingly promote more illegal immigration.
https://abc7chicago.com/migrants-chicago-in-news-little-village/13572900/
— Democrats acknowledge that “At least 47 shot, 5 fatally, in weekend shootings across city.”
https://abc7chicago.com/chicago-shootings-shooting-breaking-news-today/13572616/
— To get more votes from student borrowers, Democrats ever-increasingly do everything that they can to write off student debt. Of course, that encourages more student debt that will be written off. How soon, if not already, will no college students work their way through college like I did 1966-1970? Granted, tuition was much less back then. But I was able to graduate debt-free from NIU in 1970 owning a 1969 Dodge Charger SE because I lived with my parents in Crete during my first 2 years at UIC, weekends during my first semester at NIU to keep my Park Forest Post Office job, and the summer of 1969. If tuition had been as high back then as it is now, the money that I spent on new cars (1966 Pontiac Tempest Sprint, 1968 Oldsmobile 442, and 1969 Dodge Charger SE) would have gone for tuition instead of for new cars.

DAILY HERALD
— Targeting sex traffickers: Authorities focus on prostitution profiteers, not victims – Barbara Vitello
https://www.dailyherald.com/news/20230729/targeting-sex-traffickers-authorities-focus-on-prostitution-profiteers-not-victims
— FRONT PAGE: Democrats say “Illinois Democrats end year’s first half with slightly more cash than GOP.” Political parties exist to help elect candidates who can and will defend and advance their platform. What motivates you to give money to Republican candidates and organizations? For me, it is their record of defending and advancing the Republican Party platform, including its individual responsibility, traditional marriage and family, right to life, immigration, illegal drugs, Second Amendment, and equal opportunity (no race or gender based preference giving) planks.
https://www.dailyherald.com/news/20230731/illinois-democrats-end-years-first-half-with-slightly-more-cash-than-gop-records-show
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The Illinois Republican Party started the quarter with about $654,456 in the bank. Of that sum, about $165,140 was intended for federal uses and $489,316 was for down-ballot contests. The donations the party received over the next three months included: A total of $43,000 from Chair Don Tracy and his wife, Wanda, both of Springfield. A total of $48,000 from Dot Transportation and Dot Foods, companies owned by Don Tracy and his siblings. A total of $20,000 from billionaire real estate developer, former casino mogul and former Republican National Committee finance chair Steve Wynn and his wife, Andrea. $22,000 from Lake Forest resident and prodigious conservative donor Elizabeth Uihlein, the co-founder of the Uline shipping supply company. $199,089 from a federal Republican political action committee called Protect the House. $4,500 from Kathy Salvi. $600 from 2020 congressional candidate and former state Rep. Jeanne Ives of Wheaton. The party’s expenses during the quarter included legal services, campaign consulting, robocalls, payroll and direct mail advertising. As of June 30, the GOP had $412,770 in federal funds and $557,943 in state-regulated cash, records show. It reported no debts. When asked to comment, Don Tracy said Pritzker “buys the loyalty of his party.” “We’re not funded by a billionaire figurehead,” said Tracy, who has led the state GOP since 2021. “Instead, we rely on the support of working families who want better government, less corruption and a lower tax burden.”)

CENTRAL ILLINOIS PROUD
— Democrats say “Facing legal peril, Trump calls on GOP to rally around him.” When adverse actions were taken against you, who rallied around you? I have been a member of the Milton Township Republican Organization (MTRO) since 1999. My critics/opponents stress that MTRO did not rally around me a) when Wheaton rudely ended my role as Republican fundraiser for Wheaton Independence Day parades and fireworks in 2021, a role that I had since 2005, b) when DuPage County rudely jerrymandered my precinct in 2015, a precinct that I had since 2000, c) when Wheaton Chamber of Commerce rudely ended my membership in its Government Affairs Committee in 2011, a membership that I had since 2003, d) when TAPROOT Republicans of Illinois rudely ended my chairmanship in 2012, an office that I had since 2005, e) when MTRO rudely ended my service as MTRO webmaster in 2010 and 2004, f) when Illinois Center Right Coalition (ICRC) rudely ended my membership on its Steering Committee in 2007, an office I had since 2003, g) when ICRC rudely almost succeeded in censuring me for my GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters in 2006, h) when I ran for the open MTRO Treasurer office in 2004; the vote was 69 to 13 against me, and i) when American Association of Political Consultants Midwest Chapter rudely ended my membership on its board of directors in 2004. I should write a book about how MTRO has treated me and why. I would focus on its leaders a) who blame me and who blame my GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters for all the defeats that Republican candidates on ballots in my precinct have suffered since 2000, b) who blame me and blame my GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters for all of their problems, for all of your problems, for all of my problems, and for all of everyone’s problems, and/or c) who destroy those like me who they cannot manipulate or dominate, who refuse to glorify and praise them, who refuse to pander to them, who refuse to serve as one of their operatives or dupes, who refuse to coverup their wrong doing, and/or who refuse to give them money. I would focus on the aforesaid MTRO leaders who orchestrated the aforesaid adverse actions against me or helped orchestrate them.

https://legalinsurrection.com/2023/07/workshop-at-ut-austin-will-teach-students-how-to-check-their-monosexual-privilege/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Monosexual privilege is defined as a “system of unearned advantages” afforded to straight people at the expense of people with bi, pan and fluid sexual identities, according to a Michigan State University gender and sexuality glossary. “These advantages and rights are so embedded into all dimensions of society that they are taken for granted and practically unrecognizable to heterosexual people,” the glossary states. The UT-Austin workshop, scheduled for August, is designed to affirm LGBTQIA+ people and allyship and warn against “heterosexual” and “monosexual” privilege; it’s one of several LGBTQIA+ themed workshops slated for next month.)

https://www.tpusa.com/live/nyc-initiative-offers-500000-race-based-journalism-scholarship-to-increase-diversity
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Diversity initiatives, scholarship programs, and admissions standards have all been called into public question following the Supreme Court’s recent ruling that struck down affirmative action. Other standards have quickly taken the place of the primarily race-based college admissions standards however, dubbed “adversity scores,” these new mechanisms rate students on a “disadvantage scale.” This scale rewards students with “disadvantaged” backgrounds with a higher score, and thus, a better shot at making the final cut. Many speculate, however, that following the Supreme Court’s effective termination of affirmative action, other race-based initiatives and incentives may be on their way out — or to court.)

They hint/imply/argue/shout that I have run Trump’s campaign in Wheaton, Milton Township, and DuPage County since 2015. They almost succeeded in rudely stopping me from reporting on the recent DeSantis event in Elmhurst. They have rudely stopped me from serving as the Republican fundraiser for Wheaton Independence Day parades and fireworks since 2021, a role that I had since 2005. They rudely ended my bid to be selected to fill the Wheaton City Council West District vacancy in 2019. They rudely gerrymandered my precinct in 2015. What more adverse actions will they take against me now? Based on the past, they will ramp up their efforts a) to stop me from sending out GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters and b) to stop everyone from reading those newsletters. They will ramp up their efforts a) to turn Republican candidates on the March 19, 2024 Republican primary ballot in my precinct against me and b) to turn everyone else against me. Will they run someone against me for DuPage County Milton Township Precinct 59 Republican Precinct Committeeman? How should I respond to the aforesaid? Should I start naming names?

My father was only the first of my ancestors to earn a high school diploma. My mother never attended high school. My father never earned more than $50,000/year in today’s dollars. He almost always worked second jobs to pay the family’s bills. After he died suddenly in 1969 when he was 47 and I was 21, I helped support my mother and brother. My application for a financial hardship draft deferment was approved in early 1971. I lived with my mother and brother and helped support them with money that earned working for a) the Firestone Store in Chicago Heights 1970-1972 and b) for IRS 1971-1972.
https://www.nytimes.com/2023/07/02/us/affirmative-action-university-of-california-davis.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: In the Davis scale, first used in 2012, eight categories establish an adversity score for each candidate. Factors include family income, whether applicants come from an underserved area, whether they help support their nuclear families and whether their parents went to college. The higher an applicant rates on the disadvantage scale, the bigger the boost.)

Did any of your ancestors own slaves? None of my ancestors owned slaves. While they all immigrated during the 1840s and 1850s, they always lived in northeast Illinois. Affirmative Action (AA), Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) are reparations. I should write a book about those a) whose ancestors owed slaves AND b) who made me pay the price of AA and DEI the most, that is, who made me pay the most reparations.

My critics/opponents have always hinted/implied/argued/shouted at those who are the aforesaid that because of that and because I avoided the draft, because I was grossly overpaid by the federal government, because my wife has always had income, and because we gave up trying to have children, we did not adopt, and we did not become foster parents, I should pay the price of Affirmative Action, Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion big time.

— DeSantis Hits Back at Scott Over Florida Standards – Luca Cacciatore
https://www.newsmax.com/newsfront/ron-desantis-tim-scott-2024/2023/07/28/id/1128911/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: But DeSantis, while in rural Iowa, accused Scott of joining his fellow moderate Republicans in the upper chamber by “all too often” accepting the left’s “false narratives” and “lies.” “The way you lead is to fight back against the lies is to speak the truth,” DeSantis said. “So, I’m here defending my state of Florida against false accusations and against lies, and we’re going to continue to speak the truth.” DeSantis’ campaign has accused the media of nitpicking the standards, pointing to an earlier Advanced Placement course on African American studies rejected by the state for being too woke that had the same required course content. Florida Education Department spokesman Alex Lanfranconi said the new standards resulted from a “rigorous process” that incorporated “all components of African American History: the good, the bad and the ugly.” Florida is 1 of 12 states that requires the teaching of African American history. The others are New York, Washington, Arkansas, Tennessee, South Carolina, Mississippi, Colorado, New Jersey, Rhode Island, Delaware, and Illinois. DeSantis and Scott have attempted to appeal to the same donor cohort, with the South Carolina lawmaker seeing an opening due to DeSantis’ dwindling poll numbers, Politico reported. While the Florida governor dropped from within four points of former President Donald Trump in February to nearly 37 points behind, Scott has remained at around 3% since his announcement.)

— Giant Foodservices Corporation Sued in Federal Court for Religious Discrimination and Wrongful Termination – Tom Ciesielka
https://www.thomasmoresociety.org/news/giant-foodservices-corporation-sued-in-federal-court-for-religious-discrimination-and-wrongful-termination
(FROM THE ARTICLE: One of the largest corporations in the world is blatantly discriminating against white men—and punishing employees who dare to speak out against it. Infuriatingly, in our society today it’s become acceptable to discriminate in the workplace—as long as radical D.E.I. activists pick and choose what group of people is the “wrong” race and sex. Let me step back and explain…Courtney Rogers was an HR worker for Compass Group, USA when a new company program called “Operation Equity” was initiated. Compass falsely labeled this program a ‘diversity’ initiative, while specifically prohibiting participation by white men from its promised promotions and plentiful workplace benefits. You read that correctly… white men in Compass Group USA were not allowed to apply or participate. The program was only available to “women” and “people of color.” Even though she is not a white man herself, this blatant discrimination didn’t sit right with Courtney. She expressed her concerns and requested an accommodation, so that she would not be required to work on this new program. The initiative directly conflicted with her sincere religious beliefs holding that all people, regardless of race or gender, are created equal and should be treated fairly… just as our Constitution promises to all Americans. Courtney was assured by a manager that there would be no retaliation against her, and that she could be assigned different responsibilities……and yet within weeks, that very same manager terminated her. He had assured Courtney that she was doing excellent work, but the termination letter that Compass sent her said that she was being terminated for “unsatisfactory performance.” We’ve taken on Courtney’s lawsuit to get justice following her clearly wrongful termination and we’ll need your help in this critical battle. Compass Group has unlimited resources to fight our lawsuit. With your generous support, we must send a message to Compass Group—that they won’t get away with this discrimination.)

My father died suddenly in 1969 when he was 47 and I was 21. My starting IRS salary in 1971 was $52,022/year in today’s dollars.

My ancestors on my father’s side have lived in Crete since 1854. I lived in Crete 1948-1972. My father lived in Crete from 1922 until he died in 1969.

(FROM THE ARTICLE: The building was constructed in 1853 by the Crete Congregational Church. The church and its members were committed to the abolition of slavery and helping those who escaped slavery reach freedom. Several prominent families as members of the Crete Congregational Church served as conductors on the Underground Railroad. The Underground Railroad was a network of people and places that helped protect, move, feed and shelter freedom seekers. The structure served as a house of worship until 1963 when it became an antique store.)

CENTER SQUARE ILLINOIS
— As migrant kids prepare for school, some say not enough done for citizen students. – Andrew Hensel (COMMENT: How many “migrant children” have Democrats enrolled in your school district so far?)
https://www.thecentersquare.com/illinois/article_00fc1d22-2a72-11ee-a170-e35e9f9927a6.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: State Rep. Janet Yang Rohr, D-Naperville, told The Center Square that not only will schools see migrants from Mexico and Cuba, but the state will also see migrants from eastern European nations. Yang Rohr said the money is available. “We will be seeing Russian-speaking students and students coming from Ukraine, and so we made appropriate money for this kind of need in the last budget,” Yang-Rohr said. Some Republican lawmakers warn taxes could increase to make up for the costs surrounding the education of undocumented migrant children. “It is not the responsibility of Illinois taxpayers to foot the bill for education costs of people here illegally,” said state Rep. Chris Miller, R-Charleston. “Instead of disregarding federal law, Illinois should be following the law. The solution is to end Illinois’ sanctuary state status and help enforce our nation’s immigration laws.” State Rep. Michelle Mussman, D-Schaumburg, said that lawmakers have yet to have any official talks about the costs or how to properly integrate the students. “I don’t know if it is as formal as we would like it to be,” Mussman told The Center Square. “But I think we are all talking with as many people in the shared community space as possible about the issue of more people in the building.” Illinois State Board of Education numbers also show 7,188 unfilled teaching positions across the state, a vacancy rate of 3.5%. State Rep. Brad Halbrook, R-Shelbyville, said regardless of the costs, the state of Illinois has done a poor job supporting the families and students who are here legally. “It is amazing to me that, on the one hand, our state leaders are spending money we don’t have to educate kids whose parents are not legally supposed to be here, but they won’t extend the Invest in Kids program, which has helped so many kids escape failing schools and get the kind of education they deserve,” Halbrook said. “We are denying education opportunities for Illinois citizens while using taxpayers to make a political statement on immigration policy. It is time for our leaders to lead and put the needs of Illinois citizens first.” Even without the migrant students being enrolled, Illinois spends on average of more than $16,000 per student, far more than neighboring states.)

— Adam Andrzejewski on Wasteful Government Spending (COMMENT: Who has wasted you? I worked for the Democrats who ran GAO 1980-1997. GAO is supposed to fight wasteful government spending, but my Democrat GAO superiors wasted my career and forced me to take their early retirement “offer” in 1997 when I was 49 years old. Further, since 1997, Gingrich, Hastert, my Republican U.S. Senators, my Republican U.S. Representatives, candidates for those offices, and their staff members have wasted what I learned working for IRS 1971-1980 and for GAO, especially what I learned the last 11 years of which that I worked for GAO at the GS-13 Step 1-10 Levels, currently $109,732-$142,650/year. I worked on audits a) of federal financial industry regulators 1990-1997, b) of IRS 1986-1988, and c) of many other federal agencies in 1989 and 1980-1985. I passed the CPA examination on my first attempt in 1979. I earned a master’s degree in accounting from DePaul in 1980. I passed the Certified Internal Auditor examination on my first attempt and became a licensed CPA in 1981. I became a Certified Fraud Examiner in 1990, Government Financial Manager in 1994, Financial Services Auditor in 1996, and Forensic Accountant in 1997. I earned a master’s degree in financial markets and trading from IIT in 1997. I should write a book about the aforesaid. I would focus on Gingrich a) because GAO works for Congress, b) because Gingrich cut GAO’s budget dramatically in the mid-1990s, c) because my Democrat GAO superiors punished me big time for that, and d) because they used his budget cuts to force me take their early retirement “offer” on September 30, 1997.)

THE HILL
— Democrats say “Republicans to be more selective in choosing Senate candidates in 2024.” The leaders of the Illinois Republican Party, DuPage County Republican Central Committee, and Milton Township Republican Organization (MTRO) have not selected me to be a candidate for any elected office. More than that, they have viciously discouraged me from even thinking about running for any elected office. More than that, MTRO leaders a) viciously worked against my bid to be selected to fill the Wheaton City Council West District vacancy in 2019 and b) viciously defeated me (69 votes to my 13 votes) when I ran for the open MTRO Treasurer office in 2004. More than that, they ignore, dismiss, belittle, demonize, denigrate, and condemn the fact that a) I worked for GAO for almost 18 years, the last 11 years of which at the GS-13 Step 1-10 Levels, currently $109,732-$142,650/year, b) I passed the CPA and Certified Internal Auditor examinations on my first attempt, c) I became a licensed CPA and a Certified Fraud Examiner, Government Financial Manager, Financial Services Auditor, and Forensic Accountant, d) I served as the MTRO webmaster 2008-2010 and 2000-2004, e) I served on many MTRO fundraising committees, f) I have served as the GOPUSA Illinois Editor since 2000, g) I served as the Republican fundraiser for Wheaton Independence Day parades and fireworks 2005-2019, h) I served as the TAPROOT Republicans of Illinois chairman 2005-2012, i) I served as a member of the Wheaton Chamber of Commerce Government Affairs Committee 2003-2011, j) I served as a member of the Illinois Center Right Coalition Steering Committee 2003-2007, k) I serve as a member of the American Association of Political Consultants Midwest Chapter board 2001-2004, and l) I served as a member of the Milton Township Cemetery Authority 2001-2004.

— Democrats say “Mayor Adams pushes newsroom diversity with scholarships for NYC students.” To discredit me, my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes stress that I do not have a degree in journalism, that I am conservative, that I am Republican, and that no one has paid me for what I have done as the GOPUSA Illinois Editor since 2000. They hint/imply/argue/shout that to be a journalist, you must have a degree in journalism, you must be liberal/moderate, you must be a Democrat, and you must get paid for what you do. In my defense, I worked for GAO as an analyst for almost 18 years, the last 11 years of which at the GS-13 Step 1-10 Levels, currently $109,132-$142,650/year. Much of what GAO analysts do is very similar to what journalists do.

(FROM THE ARTICLE: The city’s second African-American mayor, and the first in more than a generation, said the press was picking on him because he was Black. “I’m a Black man that’s the mayor, but my story is being interpreted by people who don’t look like me,” Adams said at the time, before launching a rant about newsroom diversity. The lecture didn’t go over well with editors and reporters, who wondered about the thickness of Adams’ skin. . .Adams on Friday announced a new scholarship Initiative to increase diversity in journalism that will commit at least $500,000 in one year for students of color in New York City to emulate the people they read online and in the newspapers and see on TV.)

FORBES
— A Democrat says “Reverse Discrimination Against White Job Applicants And Employees” and asks “Or Is It Racial Equity?” To give preference to one group is to discriminate against another group. To give preference to those who are minority, female, younger, LGBTQ, veteran, non-Christian, non-Protestant, non-Italian American, non-German American, those whose ancestors have not been in America for a long time, and/or citizens of foreign countries is to discriminate against those who are White, male, older, heterosexual, non-veteran, Christian, Protestant, Italian American, German American, those whose ancestors have been in America for a long time, and/or citizens of America. I should write a book about that.

— Democrats acknowledge that “Liberal Suburbs Have Their Own Border Wall. Residents of rich blue towns talk about inclusion, but their laws do the opposite.” As more and more and more Democrats move in, DuPage County, Milton Township, and Wheaton get more and more and more liberal. As someone who has lived in DuPage County, Milton Township, and Wheaton since 1978, I should write a book about that.

He’s called race-based college admissions “a cancer,” but a Soros family fellowship for children of immigrants helped him accrue wealth as a grad student.” In 1997, when I was 49 years old, my Democrat GAO superiors used Affirmative Action along with Republican-led budget cuts to force me to take their early retirement “offer” and to give my Black subordinate my job and my preferred corner office.

FORBES
— Democrats and RINOs have always hinted/implied/argued/shouted that I should pay the price of Affirmative Action (AA) big time. They have always stressed my demographics: heterosexual, conservative, Republican, White, male, old (born in 1948), draft avoider, non-poor, married (since 1978), childless, Protestant (baptized, raised, and confirmed as a Missouri Synod Lutheran), 100% German American, my ancestors have been in America since 1844, Crete resident 1948-1972, Wheaton resident since 1978, etc. Because Democrats and RINOs cannot argue that I, my parents, my grandparents, my great grandparents, or any of my ancestors discriminated against anyone, they argue that I benefitted tremendously from discrimination against those who do not share my demographics and that is why I was able to earn four college degrees, six professional certifications, and a professional license. Of course, I disagree. I should write a book about Democrats and RINOs who have used AA to take big adverse actions against me. I would focus on those who have done that to curry favor with those who do not share my demographics: LGBTQ, liberal, moderate, Democrat, Libertarian, Green, Independent, RINO, minority, female, younger, veteran, non-rich, unmarried, parents, non-Protestant, non-German American, those whose ancestors have not been in America for a long time, etc.

FAST COMPANY
— From Gen Z to baby boomers, here’s how each generation is saving for retirement. Baby boomers started saving at age 35. Gen Z is starting at 19—but they’re still worried it won’t be enough time. – SHALENE GUPTA (COMMENT: My wife and I saved far more of our income for our retirement than our peers. According to my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes, we were able to do that a) because I had avoided the draft, b) because the federal government grossly overpaid me, c) because my wife had good jobs, and d) because my wife and I gave up trying to have children, we did not adopt, and we did not become foster parents. But I saved far less for my retirement than my wife did for hers because my Democrat superiors wasted my career and forced me to take their early retirement “offer” in 1997 when I was 49 years old. My Civil Service Retirement pension a) is only 44% of what my GAO salary was in 1997 in today’s dollars and b) is less than what my IRS salary was in 1972 in today’s dollars.)
https://www.fastcompany.com/90920556/saving-for-retirement-money-gen-z-millennial-gen-x-baby-boomer
(FROM THE ARTICLE: BABY BOOMERS (BORN 1946-1964) Baby boomers started saving for retirement at an older age: Owing to the fact that baby boomers were mid-career when traditional pension plans and the retirement landscape were changing, they didn’t start planning for retirement until age 35 (median). Now, 85% have 401(k)s or similar employer-sponsored plans, are contributing an average of 10% of their annual pay, and have saved an estimated average of $289,000. But their emergency savings is only $25,000 (median). Yet, only 12% have had to take a hardship withdrawal from their retirement account, and 41% expect to rely on Social Security as their primary source of retirement income. But they’re feeling pretty good: 85% have a strong sense of purpose in life, and a whopping 90% of boomers are generally happy. And they’re not looking to retire early: Almost half (49%) expect to work past age 70 or are not planning to retire. Their reasons? While 83% say it’s financially related, 77% say it’s healthy aging-related—with 66% saying their employers are “age-friendly.”)

(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.)

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.

REUTERS
— 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.)

We need answers,” said Pulido, Illinois state advisor for the Federation for American Immigration Reform (FAIR). “These people ran for office to be our representatives, and they need to get educated number one and number two, come up with some ideas.” During the town hall a number of concerns around the immigration issue were also brought up. One of the biggest concerns and issues that was shared was where Illinois taxpayer money and resources are being used. “Illinois is spending $3.9 billion a year for illegal aliens who are present in your state The single largest cost is K through 12–it’s education. It’s the children of illegal aliens. That is the biggest cost to the state of Illinois for $2.3 billion. The second one is criminal justice,” said Susan Tully, FAIR special projects law enforcement liaison and speaker for the forum. Other worries that were brought up are the overcrowding in schools, housing, and hospitals, as well as the human trafficking that happens at the border. Sangamon County Sheriff Jack Campbell and State Representative Mike Coffey were among those in the audience at the town hall.)

POLITICO ILLINOIS
— Democrats say “Cash bail ends — but not its politics. . .Our inbox was full of statements from Republican leaders criticizing the ruling. It’s a signal the cash bail law will be a talking point in 2022 – even though the law will already be in effect. The GOP outrage: Congresswoman Mary Miller (IL-15) predicted the law “will flood the streets” with dangerous criminals. State Sen. Andrew Chesney accused Democrats of enacting “the most radical soft-on-crime policies in the country.” And state Republican Senate Leader John Curran called for a special session of the Democratic-controlled General Assembly “to properly address the negative impact on the public before this reckless statute goes into effect in just 60 days.” Sounds familiar: Republicans used similar language ahead of the 2022 election. Broadsheet publications designed to read like real newspapers fueled misinformation about the criminal justice reform law known as the SAFE-T Act, which includes eliminating cash bail. The publications stirred confusion and forced Democrats to spend time explaining the nuances of the law, even though it had already passed and had nothing to do with the election itself. Ultimately, Democrats came out ahead after the election, gaining even more seats in the General Assembly and re-electing Democratic Gov. JB Pritzker, who had signed the law abolishing cash bail. What’s next: Watch for Republicans to revisit the 2022 campaign tactic nonetheless. From the right: “Democrats’ position on eliminating cash bail and being soft on crime will be a top issue that will impact the 2024 election — especially in the suburbs,” GOP political consultant Jon Zahm told Playbook.”

NEW YORK POST
— Affirmative action in hiring must end – Vivek Ramaswamy (COMMENT: Democrats and RINOs have ever-increasing used Affirmative Action to get rid of Republicans, that is, Democrats and RINOs have ever-increasingly used patronage, political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, and age discrimination to get rid of Republicans. I should write a book about that.)
https://nypost.com/2023/07/16/follow-supremes-merit-based-lead-affirmative-action-in-hiring-must-end-too/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: It turns out we’ve been living in a strictly enforced aristocracy — one based on where you fall in the “intersectional hierarchy” or oppression index. We’ve replaced color-blindness with merit-blindness and left ourselves utterly in the dark as to how to find competent individuals to start fixing our most serious problems. As the Asian students who just won their case at the Supreme Court found out the hard way, your ethnic heritage can indeed work against you at America’s preeminent DEI — diversity, equity, inclusion — enforcement camp, formerly known as the Ivy League. When the Supreme Court struck down affirmative action in higher education in Students for Fair Admissions v. Harvard, many cheered. Finally, our sacred meritocracy would be restored! Excellence would matter again. A student’s intellectual ability would be valued again. GPAs and SAT scores might even make a comeback! It remains to be seen if the law will have any effect on the blatantly unconstitutional practices long entrenched at college-admissions offices. Backwards job quotas But make no mistake — ugly racial quotas and unconstitutional policies are in full effect at corporate America’s HR departments. Anyone who works at a large company understands this. Less-qualified people are routinely hired and promoted over others based on shallow, literally skin-deep metrics. Hiring employees from disfavored demographic groups — men, Asians, heterosexuals, whites — won’t help boost your corporate ESG (environment, social and governance) score, so why bother? Could the new Supreme Court ruling also apply to corporate America? As 13 courageous state attorneys general recently pointed out in their letter to the Fortune 100 CEOs, it sure does. “Let there be no confusion: These principles apply equally to Title VII and other laws restricting race-based discrimination in employment and contracting. Courts routinely interpret Title VI and Title VII in conjunction with each other, adopting the same principles and interpretation for both statutes,” they wrote. “Accordingly, the Supreme Court’s recent decision should place every employer and contractor on notice of the illegality of racial quotas and race-based preferences in employment and contracting practices.” It’s thrilling to see state officials take their obligations to enforce anti-discrimination laws seriously. Kudos to the AGs from Kansas, Tennessee, Alabama, Arkansas, Indiana, Iowa, Kentucky, Mississippi, Missouri, Montana, Nebraska, South Carolina and West Virginia. Could these 13 states forge a new meritocratic alliance? A sanctuary region where skilled and talented people of any race could flourish without kneeling to the woke DEI gods? Of course, the Trump administration deserves credit for starting this pushback; its Department of Labor launched investigations into Microsoft and Wells Fargo over racial preferences and representation goals. But starting in 2020, the newly energized equity freight train plowed through the boardroom of every big company. What will the long-term consequences of this practice be in terms of competence, reputation and profit? Incredibly, even the airlines announced they would be hiring new pilots according to strict affirmative-action guidelines. In 2021, United Airlines vowed to make sure at least 50% of its new pilots are women or people of color. In 2023, Bud Light told United, “Hold my beer.” Making corporate DEI illegal is also good for the companies. If applied, this law would prevent them from making terrible business decisions — decisions that harm qualified applicants, keep talented people from achieving success, wreck valuable brands and make flyers worry about their plane crashing. As the AG letter concludes, “Social mobility is essential for the long-term viability of a democracy, and our leading institutions should continue to provide opportunities to underprivileged Americans. Race, though, is a poor proxy for what is fundamentally a class distinction. We urge you to immediately cease any unlawful race-based quotas or preferences your company has adopted for its employment and contracting practices. If you choose not to do so, know that you will be held accountable — sooner rather than later — for your decision to continue treating people differently because of the color of their skin. Federal law is now crystal clear that these corporate policies are illegal. We will see whether the Biden administration — which has so loudly claimed to support the Civil Rights Act — will enforce it.)

BBN TIMES
— THE IMPORTANCE OF STUDYING PUBLIC POLICY: UNDERSTANDING ITS IMPACT ON SOCIETY – Felix Yim (COMMENT: What public policy has had the biggest negative impact on you? By far, Affirmative Action (AA) has had biggest negative impact on me. My superiors in the federal government and my critics/opponents in Wheaton, Milton Township, DuPage County, and Illinois have used AA against me big time. I should write a book about that. They have always stressed that I have always opposed patronage, political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, and age discrimination, that is, that I have always opposed Affirmative Action (AA), Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI). Further, they have always stressed that I am heterosexual, conservative, Republican, White, male, old (born in 1948), draft avoider, non-poor, gun-owner, Protestant (baptized, raised, and confirmed as a Missouri Synod Lutheran), 100% German American, my ancestors have been in America since 1844, a Crete resident 1948-1972, and a Wheaton resident since 1978.  Again, I should write a book about that. I would focus on my critics/opponents who promote AA and DEI to curry favor with those who are LGBTQ, liberal, moderate, Democrat, Libertarian, Green, Independent, RINO, minority, female, younger, veteran, non-rich, non-gun owner, non-Protestant, non-German American, and/or those whose ancestors have not been in America for a long time.)

DUPAGE POLICY JOURNAL
— ‘What struck me was the level of indignance both Commissioner Tornatore and Chairman Zay demonstrated. – Noel Manley’
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.)
