The other options were very proud (25 percent), moderately proud (16 percent), only a little proud (7 percent) or not proud at all (3 percent).)

AA, Diversity, and Inclusion waste the careers of and get rid of those who are Republican, White, male, older, and/or veteran.

— The Secret Price of Pets The care and feeding of America’s “fur babies” has grown increasingly baroque. – Peter Haldeman (DIERSEN: According to this article, last year, Americans spent $69.5 billion on their pets. Dogs are extremely time consuming and expensive. One reason why I can afford to spend 10+ hours each and every day and thousands of dollars each and every year to put GOPUSA ILLINOIS emails together and send them out each and every day is that I have never owned a dog. The time and money that others have spent on dogs I spent working a second job during 1971 and 1972, earning three job-related master’s degrees in 1976, 1980, and 1997, passing two professional certification examinations in 1979 and 1981, serving as a Republican Precinct Committeeman since 2000, serving as the Milton Township Republican Central Committee webmaster 2000-2004 and 2008-2010, serving as the TAPROOT Republicans of Illinois chairman 2005-2012, etc.)

WASHINGTON POST
— DIERSEN HEADLINE: Anti-Trumps do not like #WalkAway.

https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/the-intersect/wp/2018/07/02/the-walkaway-meme-is-what-happens-when-everything-is-viral-and-nothing-matters/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: On the pro-Trump Internet last weekend, the #WalkAway hashtag was the nexus of an exciting idea: that “millions of Americans are walking away from the Democrat party,” as one pro-Trump account put it. Breitbart said that the hashtag had gone viral; the Epoch Times said it represented a “growing movement” of Democrats — particularly minority Democrats — abandoning their party, and liberalism.)

WALL STREET JOURNAL
— FRONT PAGE TOP OF FOLD WITH GRAPHIC: In This Economy, Quitters Are Winning – David Harrison and Eric Morath (DIERSEN: Beyond outrageously, in Diersen v. GAO, my Democrat GAO superiors argued that they did nothing to get me to take their early retirement “offer” in 1997 when I was 49 years old. But in fact, they made it extremely clear to me that if I did not take their “offer,” they would a) make my life a living hell and b) constructively, if not actually, demote me. They told me that if I did not take their “offer,” they would assign me to work for my subordinates. All my subordinates were Democrat minorities and/or Democrat females who were younger than me and who had an extremely low opinion of me and of those who share my demographics. They hinted/implied that they would give me performance expectations and performance appraisals that would be even more unfair. They hinted/implied that they might do less to destroy me if I would a) dump my 9 years of experience auditing federal financial industry regulators and b) dump my 1997 master’s degree in financial markets and trading from IIT and try to get assigned to a different audit group.)
https://www.wsj.com/articles/in-this-economy-quitters-are-winning-1530702001
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Kimberly Enoch had a stable job working from home managing grants for a Little Rock, Ark., nonprofit, but she was bored and thought she could do better. So she quit. Within three months, she landed a job as a grant writer at Southern Bancorp Community Partners, snagging a 14% raise, a faster pace at work and an easy seven-minute commute. “I knew I could do more,” Ms. Enoch said. She is part of a bigger trend. Workers are choosing to leave their jobs at the fastest rate since the internet boom 17 years ago and getting rewarded for it with bigger paychecks and/or more satisfying work.)
— Polish Chief Justice Defies Government’s Supreme Court Overhaul Malgorzata Gersdorf showed up for work despite a new law that would force the retirement of more than a third of the judges on the court – Natalia Ojewska (DIERSEN: The federal government wastes the careers of and gets rid of its employees who are Republican, White, male, and/or non-veteran who do not make GS-13 (currently $96,403) by age 25, GS-14 (currently $113,920) by age 30, GS-15 (currently $134,000) by age 35, and Senior Executive Service (currently $164,200) by age 40. In today’s dollars, were you earning $96,403 by age 25, $113,920 by age 30, $134,000 by age 35, and $164,200 by age 40.)
https://www.wsj.com/articles/polish-chief-justice-defies-governments-supreme-court-overhaul-1530696927
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The new law mandates early retirement for all male Supreme Court judges over 65 years old and all female judges over 60. A panel of experts would then appoint replacement judges. Parliament would choose who staffs that panel, unless more than two-fifths of Poland’s sharply divided parliament obstructs the process, in which case President Andrzej Duda would choose the panelists.)

MOTLEY FOOL
— Financial Freedom Eludes Many, but Social Security Helps Only one in 10 Americans isn’t in some capacity reliant on their Social Security income when they retire. – Sean Williams (DIERSEN: What has helped you to save more of your income for retirement? For me, my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes would say it was three very bad things: a) my avoiding the draft, b) the federal government grossly overpaying me, and c) my wife and I giving up trying to have children, our not adopting, and our not becoming foster parents.)
https://www.fool.com/retirement/2018/07/04/financial-freedom-eludes-many-but-social-security.aspx
(FROM THE ARTICLE: According to a Bankrate survey released in March, most Americans fail to save an adequate amount of their income. While most financial advisors recommend that people save 15% or more of what they earn, just 16% of respondents to Bankrate’s survey were heeding this advice. By comparison, 19% weren’t saving a red cent, 21% were putting away 1% to 5% of their earnings, and another 25% were saving 6% to 10% of their income. In another context, essentially two-thirds of Americans are saving nothing or very little, thusly putting their retirement in jeopardy.)

My critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes hint/imply/argue/shout that at best, my Republican U.S. Senators and Republican U.S. Representatives consider me to be “too conservative.”)

— Barnes & Noble Fires CEO Without Severance Over Policy Violations – Maria Armental and Jeffrey A. Trachtenberg (DIERSEN: In 1997, when I was 49 years old, if my Democrat GAO superiors had been honest, they would have announced that they forced me to take their early retirement “offer” a) to punish me for being an active member of a class action lawsuit since 1988 that charged them with reverse discrimination, age discrimination, and retaliation and b) to send a strong message to Democrats, to minorities, and to females that GAO gets rid of its employees who are Republican, White, male, and/or non-veteran who do not make GS-13 (currently $96,403) by age 25, GS-14 (currently $113,920) by age 30, GS-15 (currently $134,000) by age 35, and Senior Executive Service (currently $164,200) by age 40. Because my Democrat GAO superiors did not announce that, because my Republican U.S. Senators and Republican U.S. Representatives did not come to my defense in Diersen v. GAO, and because I was denied my 7th Amendment right to a jury trial in Diersen v. GAO, my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes have hinted/implied/argued/shouted that GAO got rid of me because I am a White supremacist, Nazi, KKK member, hater, racist, sexist, bigot, and even worse things.)

http://www.wrcbtv.com/story/38548029/volkswagen-worker-60-files-age-discrimination-case-against-automaker
(FROM THE ARTICLE: A 60-year-old employee at Volkswagen’s Chattanooga auto plant has filed a class-action lawsuit in which he contends the company is using a rebranding effort to discriminate against workers once they turn 50. The law firm that filed the lawsuit Friday in U.S. District Court said the named plaintiff is Jonathan Manlove of Ooltewah, who is a former supervisor at the Chattanooga plant. Attorney Kevin Sharp said the company is trying to change its image to a “younger, sleeker company” after an emissions scandal that has rocked VW since 2015. The law firm said the company announced it was “becoming slimmer, leaner and younger” just before Manlove was demoted last year. The firm said he has sought other positions but has been rebuffed. Volkswagen spokesman Keith King said the company doesn’t comment on pending litigation.)

— Amazon Workers Facing Firing Can Appeal to a Jury of Their Co-Workers The hearing process has raised questions about fairness, according to workers and their attorneys. – Spencer Soper (DIERSEN: What would a jury of your co-workers be like? While I worked for the federal government for almost 30 years, virtually all of my co-workers disapproved of those who were conservative, Republican, draft avoiders, older, Protestant, and/or German American.)
https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2018-06-25/amazon-workers-facing-firing-can-appeal-to-a-jury-of-their-co-workers
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Jane was working in Amazon.com Inc.’s Seattle headquarters when she was asked to a meeting with her manager and a human resources representative. They gave her a document outlining concerns about her work performance and spelled out three choices. She could quit and receive severance pay, spend the next several weeks trying to keep her job by meeting certain performance goals, or square off with her manager in a videoconference version of the Thunderdome, pleading her case with a panel of co-workers while her boss argued against her. Jane, who asked that her real name not be used to discuss a personal matter, chose the last one. The employee appeal process is Amazon’s latest experiment in managing its growing workforce of more than 500,000. When it announced the program last year, Amazon acknowledged it had been quick to fire people instead of trying to resolve problems in other ways. Executives recognized that poorly defined roles, dysfunctional teams, and peremptory managers were among the factors that often remained unexamined, according to a person familiar with the matter. Workers facing termination also lacked a forum to discuss such factors, the person says. Amazon is borrowing a page from union grievance processes that don’t apply to most corporate employees. But only about 30 percent of those who appeal their manager’s criticisms prevail, meaning they can keep their jobs or seek new ones within the company with different bosses, according to people familiar with the matter. Eighteen months after its debut, the hearing process has created resentment and raised questions about fairness, according to current and former workers as well as attorneys familiar with their situations. “It’s a kangaroo court,” says George Tamblyn, a Seattle employment lawyer who helped one former Amazon worker plan her appeal earlier this year. “My impression of the process is it’s totally unfair.”)

Bruce Rauner and attorney general candidate Erika Harrold were among the statewide candidates working the crowd in the sweltering heat, but the largest group of political marchers was backing U.S. Rep. Peter Roskam, who is in a tough reelection fight. The Republicans were followed by a small contingent of marchers supporting Democratic candidates.)

— Inside Facebook and Twitter’s secret meetings with Trump aides and conservative leaders – Tony Romm (DIERSEN: Who are the conservative leaders in Illinois, in your county, in your township/ward, and in your municipality? How often do they publish articles on their websites in support of the traditional family, right to life, immigration, and Second Amendment planks in the Illinois Republican Party platform? Who reads their articles? Who reads their emails?)
http://www.dailyherald.com/business/20180630/inside-facebook-and-twitters-secret-meetings-with-trump-aides-and-conservative-leaders
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Twitter and Facebook are scrambling to assuage conservative leaders who have sounded alarms — and sought to rile voters — with accusations that the country’s tech giants are censoring right-leaning posts, tweets and news. From secret dinners with conservative media elite to private meetings with the Republican National Committee, the new outreach reflects tech giants’ delicate task: satisfying a party in power while defending online platforms against attacks that threaten to undermine the public’s trust in the web. . . . To address the allegations, Dorsey has tried to break bread — quite literally — with his company’s critics. The Twitter executive convened a rare private dinner with Republican leaders and conservative commentators in Washington last week at Cafe Milano, a familiar Georgetown haunt for city power brokers, according to four people who participated in the dinner but requested anonymity because it was off the record. The gathering came weeks after Dorsey invoked conservatives’ ire by tweeting a story suggesting voters should elect Democrats in November — and after he made his first official visit to Congress. Among those attending the June 19 dinner were Mercedes Schlapp, a top communications adviser for Trump; Grover Norquist, the leader of Americans for Tax Reform; Greta Van Susteren, a right-leaning host on MSNBC; and Guy Benson, a Fox News commentator, according to the people in the room. Dorsey hoped to use the dinner as a way to build “trust” among conservatives who have long chastised the company, three of the people said. He defended Twitter against accusations that it targeted right-leaning users unfairly but still admitted that the company has room for improvement, according to the attendees. In response, the Twitter executive heard an earful from conservatives gathered at the table, who scoffed at the fact that Dorsey runs a platform that’s supposed to be neutral even though he’s tweeted about issues like immigration, gay rights and national politics. They also told Dorsey that the tech industry’s efforts to improve diversity — after years of criticism for maintaining a largely white, male workforce — should focus on hiring engineers with more diverse political viewpoints as well, according to those who dined with him in Washington. A spokesman for Twitter declined to comment on the dinner.)

CHAMPAIGN/URBANA NEWS GAZETTE
— Sam’s a sham – Editorial
http://www.news-gazette.com/opinion/editorials/2018-06-27/editorial-sams-sham.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The only people happier that McCann to see him enter the contest between Republican incumbent Gov. Bruce Rauner and Democrat J.B. Pritzker are Democrats who hope that McCann, a nominal Republican, will draw enough votes from Rauner to give Pritzker the win. The Democratic Governors Association issued a statement gloatingly predicting that McCann’s candidacy will draw hard-line conservatives from the GOP, further complicating Rauner’s efforts to unify the party behind him. “Just when he needs to turn to the general election, Bruce Rauner will have to keep refighting the battles of the primary,” said DGA Illinois communications director Sam Salustro. McCann, who is running as a representative of a new Conservative Party, indicated that he’s running as a proponent of gun rights and lower taxes. To hear him talk, he’s a proud conservative ideologue. But that’s just rhetoric. McCann is running — and he knows he’s running — to ensure the defeat of Rauner, with whom he has publicly crossed swords, and the election of Pritzker. . .Second, Rauner has alienated conservatives, particularly with his decision to sign legislation providing taxpayer-funded abortions. He barely won the primary against little-known state Rep. Jeanne Ives, who challenged Rauner from the right. Whether Rauner can get those conservatives back remains undetermined. He keeps reminding them that he’s all that stands between them and complete Democratic control of the state. But ideologues of both the right and left can’t bear any candidate who, in their view, double-crosses them on even a single issue. In that sense, McCann’s candidacy is a direct consequence of Gov. Rauner’s own actions, a hurdle that he unintentionally created and one that will be difficult to overcome.)

 

DECATUR DAILY
— Creating a compassionate and workable immigration policy – Franklin Johnson, Falkville (DIERSEN: All my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes want cheap labor.)

(FROM THE LETTER: I don’t know how you can do it. You continue to frame the immigration crisis as a struggle between persecuted families yearning for a better life opposed by hard-hearted white nativists determined to maintain racial purity. Right before your eyes, elements of both political parties are trying to impose slavery — not legal slavery, but economic and political slavery on a whole class of people. They talk humanity, but their purpose is profit and control: 1. Cheap labor from people who won’t or can’t complain; 2. A servant class who can be manipulated because of their lack of education and their dependence. You deny that you are in favor of open borders, yet you oppose any workable effort to stanch the flow: a wall, zero tolerance, moratoriums, and most of all, deportation for those who broke the law getting here as a deterrent. Your idea of immigration reform is amnesty for all who will take a token pledge. You appear not to be concerned about what happens to children who arrive here unescorted. They vanish from their foster homes, and you don’t consider what hells are being imposed on them as they’re scattered through the country. You refuse to say how many new immigrants is enough and you oppose setting standards for those we accept. You quote Emma Lazarus, but you don’t recognize that immigration was once a controlled process. You try to shame us for opposing this travesty while ignoring the results on the Americans impacted. Speak up. Line it out. What is your idea of a compassionate and workable immigration policy without the platitudes, histrionics, and tear-jerking?)

The unused sick days increased my Civil Service Retirement System pension and I got a check for the unused vacation days. It was for $14,460 in today’s dollars.)

GOVERNOR RAUNER
— A beautiful Sunday to celebrate Pride Day in Chicago! (DIERSEN: Ever-increasingly, the future looks bleak for those who support the traditional family, right to life, and immigration planks in the Illinois Republican Party (IRP) platform. To promote LGBTQ activity is to dump those voters who support the traditional family plank in the IRP platform. To promote abortion is to dump those voters who support the right to life plank in the IRP platform. To promote illegal immigration is to dump those voters who support the immigration plank in the IRP platform. Ever-increasingly, Rauner seems to promise that if he is reelected, he will drive those who support the aforesaid planks out of the IRP once and for all, that is, that he will destroy the IRP once and for all. If Rauner is reelected, he will dump those who support the aforesaid planks. If Rauner is not reelected, he will blame those who support the aforesaid planks.)

Denny Heck, of Washington, is helping lead the Democrat’s effort to pick up the 23 seats needed to regain control of the House. He said trash talking Trump will only go so far. Republicans also are encouraging House candidates to focus on local issues instead of the latest national headlines.)

http://www.chicagotribune.com/news/ct-met-abortion-medicaid-taxpayer-funded-illinois-20180523-story.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Republican Gov. Bruce Rauner outraged his party’s conservative base by signing the legislation in September. Then in the March primary he narrowly defeated challenger Jeanne Ives, a state lawmaker whose televised campaign ad featured a young woman thanking the governor “for making all Illinois families pay for my abortions.” Anti-abortion organizations along with some Republican lawmakers sued to block the measure and, after a judge dismissed their case, appealed to the Illinois State Supreme Court in February. The suit is pending. “The fact that the government is using taxpayer money to fund abortion is reprehensible to me,” said Tim Moore, president of Springfield Right to Life, one of the plaintiffs. “I’m subsidizing an immoral act. I’m subsidizing the culture of death. The government, which is supposed to protect life, is willfully taking part in the slaughter of innocents.”)

My critics/opponents continue to be furious that my wife and I paid off our mortgage in the 1990s and that we have not had any debt since then. They continue to hint/imply/argue/shout that we would not have been able to do that a) if I had not avoided the draft, b) if the federal government had not grossly overpaid me, and c) if we had not given up trying to have children, if we had adopted, or if we had become foster parents.)

But those who dominate the Republican politics in Illinois do not want me to promote Trump or the traditional family, right to life, immigration, or Second Amendment planks in the Republican Party platform.)

GOVERNMENT EXECUTIVE
— Lawmakers Call for an Investigation Into Discipline at VA – Eric Katz (DIERSEN: When will Republicans call for an investigation into discipline at GAO, IRS, and the Post Office? My Democrat GAO superiors forced me to retire in 1997 when I was 49 years old, gave me unfair performance expectations and appraisals, always ranked me in the bottom half of my coworkers for pay-for-performance purposes, did not promote me beyond GS-13, got rid of my mentor in 1987, kept me off audits of IRS for all but 3 of the almost 18 years that I worked for GAO, and forced me to take an $19,203 pay cut in today’s dollars to transfer from IRS to GAO in 1980. My Democrat IRS superiors not promote me beyond GS-12, disallowed my education deductions in 1978, got rid of my mentor in 1975, and disallowed my partial day per diem claims in 1974. My Democrat Post Office superiors forced me resign in 1969 and disallowed my sick leave requests in 1969 and 1968.)

http://www.chicagotribune.com/news/nationworld/ct-sessions-immigrants-asylum-gang-violence-20180616-story.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The MS-13 gang made Jose Osmin Aparicio’s life so miserable in his native El Salvador that he had no choice but to flee in the dead of night with his wife and four children, leaving behind all their belongings and paying a smuggler $8,000. Aparicio is undeterred by a new directive from Attorney General Jeff Sessions declaring that gang and domestic violence will generally cease to be grounds for asylum. To him, it’s better to take his chances with the American asylum system and stay in Mexico if his bid is denied.)

— Sometimes You Have to Quit to Get Ahead – Stephanie Lee (DIERSEN: Of course, my Democrat superiors, Democrat supervisors, Democrat coworkers, and Democrat subordinates in the federal government always wanted me to quit. Of course, my critics/opponents in the TAPROOT Republicans of Illinois, Wheaton Chamber of Commerce, Milton Township Republican Central Committee, Illinois Center Right Coalition, and American Association of Political Consultants always wanted me to quit. Of course, my critics/opponents want me to quit as the GOPUSA Illinois editor and as a Republican Precinct Committeeman. They want to replace me with someone who they can manipulate/dominate.)

— Why Aren’t More Men Working? – N. Gregory Mankiw (DIERSEN: Democrat politicians want the federal government to hire, to retain, and to promote young Democrat women and young Democrat minorities. Of course, that means not hiring, not retaining, not promoting, wasting the careers of, and getting rid of those who are old, Republican, male, White, and/or non-veteran.)
https://www.nytimes.com/2018/06/15/business/men-unemployment-jobs.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: With unemployment at 3.8 percent, its lowest level in many years, the labor market seems healthy. But that number hides a perplexing anomaly: The percentage of men who are neither working nor looking for work has risen substantially over the past several decades. The issue, in economist’s jargon, is labor force participation. When the Bureau of Labor Statistics surveys households, every adult is put into one of three categories. Those who have a job are employed. Those who are not working but are searching for a job are unemployed. Those who are neither working nor looking for work are counted as out of the labor force. This last group is ignored when calculating the unemployment rate. The presumption is that if a person without a job isn’t looking for one, then he or she doesn’t want one, and the joblessness is not a problem. But is that really accurate? The data show some striking changes over time. Among women, the share out of the labor force has fallen from 66 percent in 1950 to 43 percent today. That is not surprising in light of changing social norms and the greater career opportunities now open to women. Men, however, exhibit the opposite long-term trend. In 1950, 14 percent of men were out of the labor force. Today, that figure stands at 31 percent. Some of this change is easy to explain. People now spend more years in school, delaying their start of work. In addition, as life expectancy rises, people have longer retirements. A man retiring at age 65 in 1950 could expect to live another 13 years. Today, a man retiring at that age has an average retirement of 18 years. Yet schooling and retirement explain only part of what has occurred. Consider prime-age men, those from the ages of 25 to 54. These men are generally well past their schooling and well before their retirement. Yet this group has also been exiting the labor force. In 1950, only 4 percent of prime-age men were not working or looking for work. Today, that figure is 11 percent.)

The new polls show all of the GOP’s gradual gains since mid-March were suddenly wiped out starting June 1, when the Democrats held a mere 3.2 point advantage in the generic ballot, which records voters’ partisan preference. One week late, on June 8, the gap had jumped to 7.6 percent as the establishment media extensively and favorably covered the discharge-petition push and Ryan’s June 6 public support for an amnesty.)

— GOP House nominee Seth Grossman calls diversity a ‘bunch of crap’ and ‘un-American’ – JUSTIN WISE (DIERSEN: Democrats and RINOs use Affirmative Action, Diversity, and Inclusion to not hire Republicans and to get rid of Republicans.)
http://thehill.com/homenews/state-watch/391687-nj-gop-house-candidate-calls-diversity-a-bunch-of-crap
(FROM THE ARTICLE: In the video, Grossman calls diversity an “un-American” concept, implies that the country was better off before affirmative action and says black Americans would benefit from stronger immigration enforcement. “The whole idea of diversity is a bunch of crap and un-American,” Grossman says. Diversity, he says, is “an excuse by Democrats, communists and socialists, basically, to say that we’re not all created equal, that if some people or somebody is less qualified, they will get a job anyway or they’ll get into college anyway because of what group or what box they fit into.” “Once we say that Republicans want these traditional ways that made America great for all these years, then maybe African-Americans will realize if we enforce our immigration laws, they’ll be more opportunities for Americans of all backgrounds,” he adds. “When we talk about women saying ‘Well we need special care for child care, we need this credit and that credit.’ I say, wait a minute, when America was great, one parent alone earned more than enough money to comfortably support a family.” On Monday, Grossman, a noted supporter of President Trump, told Philly.com that he stands by his comments. He also contended that American Bridge PAC is trying to brand Trump-aligned Republicans as “radical and unacceptable.”)

CAPITOL FAX
— Rauner’s ‘GOP Unity Week’ Fail – Rich Miller
https://capitolfax.com/2018/05/24/live-session-coverage-350/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Ives Calls for Party Leadership to Resign, Party Leaders Fight About Unity in First 2 Days This week was supposed to be a celebration of unity for Governor Bruce Rauner after he surrendered full control of the Illinois Republican Party, but it quickly fell apart for the nation’s most vulnerable incumbent. On Monday, state Representative Jeanne Ives called on the entire Republican Party leadership to resign. Then, local Republican leaders Pat Brady and Dan Proft fought in a panel titled “The Future of the Republican Party in Illinois” yesterday, even though Rauner is a sitting governor up for re-election. At one point, Proft sarcastically stated: “Right, but we can expect to unify the party and present an attractive offer when Pat is running around saying John Tillman, Dan Proft, everyone that disagrees with me is a hater, and just dismissing all the policy concerns of the conservative base of the party and telling everyone to get out. I mean, if we’re all unified, Pat, I’m sorry I guess this lunch is dismissed because we have nothing to talk about…We are on our way to super majorities and Republican Governors as far as the eye can see, and anyone who believes that please feel free to leave and get on with your day.” It did not appear that anyone left. “Bruce Rauner’s party cannot even last a day pretending like they’re unified without falling into chaos,” said DGA Illinois Communications Director Sam Salustro. “After 48% of Republicans voted to kick Rauner out, it’s not surprising that the nation’s most vulnerable incumbent is finding it impossible to put his party back together.”)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: Chicago Public Schools’ inspector general is calling on the school district to stop offering a free full-day Montessori preschool to students from the richest neighborhood in the school district. Preschool in Chicago is typically only free for low-income students. But the tuition-free preschool at Oscar Mayer Elementary School in Lincoln Park almost exclusively serves students who live in a neighborhood of mostly upper-income homes. CPS spends about $700,000 a year on the preschool, according to a report released Wednesday. A comparable private preschool could charge parents as much as $15,000 a year. CPS Inspector General Nicholas Schuler said he was “incredulous” that there would be “this perk, for one neighborhood school, as opposed to all other schools.” The average median family income in Mayer’s attendance area — nearly $178,000 a year — is the highest of any attendance area in CPS, an analysis by the IG’s office determined.)

— Wheaton continues to study flood-prone areas – ERIC SCHELKOPF (DIERSEN: By this article today, I first learned that Webster, McGrath & Ahlberg is working on a “Prairie Path Park Flood Prone Area Study” that is set for completion in July. The Prairie Path Park is in my precinct. I knew the woman and her husband who donated the park to the Wheaton Park District. Since 1984, I have urged Wheaton and the Wheaton Park District to do more to address the park’s flooding and other problems. In 2001, I followed the Wheaton Park District’s Adopt-A-Park procedures and adopted the park. My critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes a) continue to stress that I sued Wheaton in 1986 for approving a woefully inadequate storm water drainage plan for its Cove Court subdivision and for letting the subdivision’s developer violate the Illinois Drainage Code, b) continue to call for everyone to continue to punish me for filing that lawsuit, and c) continue to oppose my suggestions to improve the park including my suggestions to improve storm water drainage in the park.)
http://www.mysuburbanlife.com/2018/05/23/wheaton-continues-to-study-flood-prone-areas/acu9u6u/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: “We have around 113 properties that are located in the floodplain,” Dzugan said. “When that study is completed, it will provide us with what they call elevation certificates for each of those structures, which will eventually allow us to apply for federal or state grant monies to assist in any type of mitigation effort.” Both projects are budgeted in the city’s 2018 storm sewer fund. Webster, McGrath & Ahlberg currently is working on the Jefferson Avenue, Madison Avenue and Prairie Path Park Flood Prone Area Study, set for completion in July.)

Ever since I helped lead the “Stop The Stoplight” campaign at Harrison and President in Wheaton in 1982, they have used their religious, government, political, and/or financial clout to harm/destroy me and to harm/destroy any individual, any organization, any company, and any government that might come to my defense.

(FROM THE ARTICLE: “The message is very clear. Speak out against the Speaker and people loyal to him will come after you.” Those words, spoken Tuesday by Democratic state Rep. Kelly Cassidy, sadly sum up Michael Madigan’s despot-like reign over Illinois politics for more than three decades. Madigan, of course, is the “Speaker” in Cassidy’s comment. He has been Illinois’ House speaker for all but two years since 1983. He’s also been the chairman of the state Democratic Party since 1998, a position Democrats re-elected him to just last month despite a #MeToo harassment scandal swirling within his political organization. As the longest-serving legislative leader in American history and the longest-serving head of a major political party in Illinois history, Madigan wields more power than any other elected state official in the country and more than any single individual should be allowed to have. He controls the party’s campaign war chest, so he decides which Democratic candidates to fund in primary elections. He controls the rules for moving legislation through his chamber, so he decides which bills get to be voted on and which do not. He controls the legislative redistricting process, so he manipulates general elections. And because of all that, he controls the members of his Democratic caucus. Cross him, and you probably should start looking for something else to do.)

https://abcnews.go.com/Health/wireStory/nurse-sued-hospital-retaliation-awarded-28-million-55399009
(FROM THE ARTICLE: A jury has ruled that a Boston hospital retaliated against a Haitian-American nurse who stood up for a black colleague and has awarded her $28 million. Gessy Toussaint’s attorney described Wednesday’s verdict against Brigham and Women’s Hospital as “monumental.” The Boston Globe reports that Toussaint also had accused the hospital of racial discrimination, but the jury didn’t find proof of that claim. Toussaint says the retaliation started after she defended another Haitian-American nurse, Nirva Berthold, who also is suing the hospital. Berthold says she was denied a promotion because she’s black. That claim is still pending. The hospital says it plans to appeal the retaliation ruling but is pleased with the decision on Toussaint’s discrimination claim.)

— DIERSEN HEADLINE: Ever-increasingly, Democrats blame Republicans for racism and for poverty. Ever-increasingly, Democrats demonize, denigrate, and condemn Republicans as being White supremacists, Nazis, KKK members, haters, racists, sexists, bigots, and even worse things. Ever-increasingly, Democrats promote hatred against Republicans, and especially against Republicans who are Trump supporters, Protestant, conservative, patriotic, White, male, older, rich, gun owners, German American, draft avoiders, and those whose ancestors have been in America for a long time.

— Olsen Bill that Provides Consistent Residency Requirements for Elected Officials Heads to Gov. Rauner for Action (DIERSEN: How long have you lived in your precinct, in your municipality, in your township/ward, in your county, and in Illinois? I have lived a) in my precinct since 1984, b) in Wheaton, Milton Township, and DuPage County since 1978, and c) in Illinois since 1948. I should write a book about my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes who continue to paint me as being a newcomer.)

— Bitter, Vindictive Hillary Clinton is the Face of the 2018 Democrat Party (DIERSEN: Who is “the face” of the Republican Party in your precinct, in your municipality, in your township/ward, in your county, and in Illinois, that is, who works to defend and advance the Illinois Republican Party platform, including its traditional family, right to life, immigration, Second Amendment planks?)

— Elizabeth Warren vows to refuse NRA money after never, ever receiving any (DIERSEN: Needless-to-say, in Illinois, those who seek or hold any kind of government or political office as a Republican should not seek or accept any money from any individual, any organization, or any company that rejects planks in the Illinois Republican Party platform. He who pays the piper calls the tunes. Political parties exist to help elect candidates who can and will defend and advance their platform.)

DAILY TORCH
— Federal civil service abuses bigger than just the VA – Natalia Castro (DIERSEN: I should write a book about those who hint/imply/argue/shout that the federal government took the following adverse actions against me solely because I was a BAD employee: My Democrat GAO superiors forced me to retire in 1997 when I was 49 years old, gave me unfair performance expectations and appraisals, always ranked me in the bottom half of my coworkers for pay-for-performance purposes, did not promote me beyond GS-13, got rid of my mentor in 1987, kept me off audits of IRS for all but 3 of the almost 18 years that I worked for GAO, and forced me to take an $19,203 pay cut in today’s dollars to transfer from IRS to GAO in 1980. My Democrat IRS superiors did not promote me beyond GS-12, disallowed my education deductions in 1978, got rid of my mentor in 1975, and disallowed my partial day per diem claims in 1974. My Democrat Post Office superiors forced me resign in 1969 and disallowed my sick leave requests in 1969 and 1968.)

THE HILL
— Democrat targeted by party establishment loses Texas primary – LISA HAGEN (DIERSEN: I should write a book about those times when the “party establishment” targeted me. According to the “party establishment,” I am too conservative, that is, I support too many planks in the Illinois Republican platform. But on top of that, in their eyes, my demographics are terrible. I am a Trump supporter, Protestant (baptized, raised, and confirmed as a Missouri Synod Lutheran), patriotic, Republican, American, White, male, old (born in 1948), rich, gun owner, German American, draft avoider, my ancestors have been in America since 1844, federal retiree, former union member, childless, pet-less, not a church member, not a church goer, I do not give money to a church, etc.)

POLITICO
— Former Exelon chairman John Rowe threatens GOP over DACA – NATASHA KORECKI (DIERSEN: Needless-to-say, Republicans should never seek or accept money to act against the Republican Party platform. If someone claims to be a Republican, but gives money to Republicans to act against the Republican Party platform, they are not Republican. They are Democrat plant, Libertarian plant, Green plant, or RINO. Needless-to-say, Republicans should never seek or accept money to act against the Republican Party platform. Needless-to-say, Roskam should not seek or accept any money from Rowe.)
https://www.politico.com/story/2018/05/23/dreamers-republican-donor-threaten-603428
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Rowe is especially critical of Rep. Peter Roskam, who is locked in a competitive race — and represents a suburban Chicago district that has the largest DACA population of any Illinois member, according to the Illinois Business Immigration Commission. “I have been actively engaged with the community and various stakeholders and I will make a decision on the right course based on what’s in the best interest of these DREAMers and our nation’s border security,” Roskam said in a statement. “My hope is that Congress will reach a bipartisan agreement to protect children from deportation who were brought to the United States without documentation.” Former Illinois House GOP Minority Leader Tom Cross, who is also calling for a DACA resolution, said hitting lawmakers in their pockets may be the best way to get their attention. “John is a significant donor and has been heavily involved in the Republican Party both in the state and nationally,” Cross said. “There are all kinds of ways to impact members of Congress and the General Assembly. I’m not a donor. I was a recipient as a legislative leader and it can be impactful.”)

MCCLATCHY DC
— Push to allow Dreamers to enlist in the military for citizenship fails, again – KATE IRBY (DIERSEN: Government is nasty. Politics is nasty. I should write a book about those who since 1966 have demonized me, denigrated me, and condemned me the most for a) my seeking and getting student draft deferments 1966-1970 and b) my seeking and getting a financial hardship draft deferment 1970-1971. While I worked for the federal government 1966-1969 and 1971-1997, virtually all of my superiors, supervisors, coworkers, and subordinates were Democrats and/or veterans. My superiors, supervisors, coworkers, and subordinates who were Democrat hinted/implied/argued/shouted at my superiors, supervisors, coworkers, and subordinates who were veterans a) that I am a draft dodger, patriotic hypocrite, coward, and even worse things and b) because of the aforesaid, I should pay the price of Affirmative Action, Diversity, Inclusion, budget cuts, etc.)

NEW YORK TIMES
— Democrats’ Next Big Thing: Government-Guaranteed Jobs – Jim Tankersley (DIERSEN: Overwhelmingly, individuals, organizations, companies, governments, and countries a) have an extremely low opinion of government employees and of government retirees, b) paint government employees and government retirees as being extremely lazy and extremely stupid, c) paint government as being the “employer of last resort.”)

— Do Pro-Women Groups on Campus Discriminate Against Men? Education Department investigates scholarships, networking for women at Yale, USC – Melissa Korn (DIERSEN: Democrats use Affirmative Action, Diversity, and Inclusion to get rid of Republicans. To give preference to one group is to discriminate against another group. The presumption is that the majority discriminates against the minority. Because of that, according to Democrats, government should discriminate against those who are male, White, older, Protestant, German American, Republican, and/or rich. In what ways are you a minority? In your precinct, in your municipality, in your township/ward, in your county, in Illinois, in America, and in the world, how many people do NOT share your gender, race, age group, religion, national origin, political affiliation, income group, net worth group, etc.?)
https://www.wsj.com/articles/do-pro-women-groups-on-campus-discriminate-against-men-1527067800
