CHICAGO SUN-TIMES — City employees still don’t get regular performance evaluations, watchdog says. Departing Inspector General Joe Ferguson warned last fall the city’s failure to conduct regular evaluations for nearly half of its 33,000 employees left personnel decisions “vulnerable to appearances and suspicions of favoritism.” – Fran Spielman (DIERSEN: In Diersen v. GAO, I entered into the court record all the many performance evaluations that I received while I worked for GAO 1980-1997. Not one of them justified any of the many adverse actions that my Democrat GAO superiors took against me.) https://chicago.suntimes.com/city-hall/2021/7/13/22576008/city-employees-performance-evaluations-inspector-general-audit-corrective-measures-not-implemented
FOX ST. LOUIS — SIU paper details cannabis economics, long-term health effects in Illinois – Elizabeth Barmeier (DIERSEN: I should write a book about my pot pushing critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes who have worked the hardest against me because I oppose pot.) https://fox2now.com/news/illinois/siu-paper-details-cannabis-economics-long-term-health-effects-in-illinois/ (FROM THE ARTICLE: Cannabis can have negative consequences on those who use it continuously, according to a Southern Illinois University paper. The negative effects include periodontal disease, socioeconomic problems, and educational attainment, among others. “The Effects of Legalization of Recreational Cannabis In Illinois” also dives into the use rates among youth, women, and adults in the United States; the effectives of legalization of recreational cannabis among adolescents, college students, and pregnant women; and the decrease in the perception of cannabis harmfulness. As states across the country are considering legalizing recreational marijuana, the Cannabis Regulation and Tax Act went into effect Jan. 1, 2020, in Illinois. It allows adults, 21 and over, to legally purchase recreational marijuana. According to the study, Illinois had collected $100 million in tax revenue from cannabis sales in Oct. 2020. For more information, read the full paper ( https://opensiuc.lib.siu.edu/cgi/viewcontent.cgi?article=1066&context=ppi_papers ).

So why are you making them do it, you racist boomer? 5) They refuse to eat on Taco Tuesday due to cultural appropriation: Literally every white ally of social justice knows that enjoying any aspect of another culture that doesn’t belong to your own is racist. Segregate those cultures, Mom and Dad! 6) They ask all their minority classmates to bully them: Are they white? Then they deserve it! 7) They explain over dinner how Marxist ideology is a potent and effective tool for infiltrating all aspects of modern civilization– including culture, religion, economy, and government– in order to dismantle the established order and topple the bourgeois: Wow! so true! If your kid exhibits any of these signs, they’re on their way! Give them a salute, Comrade!)

Democrats use diversity training to get rid of Republicans. The Democrats who run the federal government require all their employees to take lots of diversity training. I worked for the Democrats who ran the federal government for almost 30 years. I should write a book about all the diversity training that I took. That training hinted/implied/argued/shouted that Republicans are White supremacists, Nazis, KKK members, haters, racists, sexists, bigots, and even worse things who should gotten rid of once and for all.

Simon https://www.theepochtimes.com/a-defeat-in-the-courts-for-bidens-racist-equity-policies_3895020.html (FROM THE ARTICLE: If you were an Armenian Christian who fled your home to Glendale, California in 1915 to escape a genocide at the hands of the Ottoman Turks that killed roughly one million of your countrymen and women, how would you feel about paying reparations for black slavery that ended more than fifty years before you arrived? Not so good, I would imagine. The whole concept of so-called reparations in America is mired in such contradictions, tens of millions having migrated to this country from all over the world and continuing to do so well more than a century after slavery ended. Many of these people suffered from onerous, sometimes extremely onerous, even life threatening, conditions of their own. Yet, the Biden administration—under, among other things, the meretricious mask of something called “equity,” as opposed to “equality”—is asking millions of our fellow citizens to pay for an acknowledged evil, slavery, in which they did not remotely participate.) — CPAC Texas: ‘America Uncanceled’ (Day 1) https://www.theepochtimes.com/live-cpac-texas-america-uncanceled-day-1_3894846.html — Arizona Lawmaker Advises People to Put up ‘No Trespassing’ Signs to Deter Door-to-Door Vaccine Checks – ALLAN STEIN https://www.theepochtimes.com/mkt_morningbrief/arizona-lawmaker-advises-people-to-put-up-no-trespassing-signs-to-deter-door-to-door-vaccine-checks_3893470.html

It’s sure not white Americans. Most of us have had nothing to do with the decline of black America. The vast majority of white Americans have never done a bad thing to a black person in our lives. We don’t run their cities. We don’t go near their cities. We literally have nothing to do with black America. And none of us were alive for slavery or the civil war, or Jim Crow. My grandparents came to America in the 1920s. They lived in New York. They experienced their own prejudice and discrimination. My relatives had nothing to do with slavery, racism or any civil rights violations. So, yes blacks are owed reparations. But who’s to blame? There’s only one common denominator: DEMOCRATS.

A parent in Naperville, Shannon Adcock, said she became aware of “culturally responsive teaching” when she was unsuccessful in running for the school board. She said the more she learned about it, the more she felt it was regressive and divisive by teaching children race or gender directly impacts outcomes. “You are having students segregated by their color, by their sexuality, by their any number of filters that an activist teacher can choose and say ‘so because of your skin color you are a problem, because of your skin color you will never make it in life, because of this intangible systemic problem in one of the greatest countries in the world,’ and to me, it’s to me extremely anti-Americanism, it’s anti-child and I believe it to be child abuse,” Adcock told WMAY. “Teach history, there’s no question about that, but when you begin filtering students, this becomes a problem and it’s a violation, a constitutional violation.” She said the curriculum can take many different names and forms, so she and others seeing similar trends in other parts of the state started the website AwakeIL.com as a way to share information with taxpayers, parents and educators about trends around the state. “We are going to preserve the integrity of our constitution, state and federal, and we’re going to take that divisive curricula and segregationist approach to education out of our classrooms,” she said.)

There was a large sheet banner reading “Make America Proud Again,” and others with the words “Secure Our Borders,” “Biden Take Off Your Mask,” and “Trump Country.” Two men with bullhorns led the crowd in chants of “Trump Won” and “Biden Lies.” The crowd started out vocal and loud, but grew quiet into the afternoon. A few Trump supporters picked fights among themselves, while several Biden supporters stood on the fringes watching. Trump supporters far outnumbered those who were there to support Biden. . .They objected to giving Americans two free years of community college education. “More like free indoctrination,” Fred Bock told the Northwest Herald.

Republicans are running on culture, while Democrats press economics. – Daniel Henninger https://www.wsj.com/articles/welcome-to-the-equity-war-11625696029 (FROM THE ARTICLE: President Biden outputs executive orders like a popcorn machine. His latest bucketful goes a long way toward clarifying the politics of our time. On June 25 Mr. Biden issued an order to “advance diversity, equity, inclusion, and accessibility (DEIA) in the federal workforce.” Meaning every nook they can find in American life. A phrase like “diversity, equity, inclusion and accessibility” is what’s known as a political narrative—a brief, repeatable description of political goals whose implicit message is: Who could be against this? It is not an overstatement to say the future of the world will rise and fall on whether these pablum-like narratives can be turned into hard policy. “Save the planet” was one of the most successful. Rising alongside is DEI (“accessibility” is a Bidenized addition). Set aside the D- and I-words. The battle of our time is over the E-word—equity. Unlike diversity and inclusion, both unmeasurable sentiments, equity is an economic concept. It posits that some have more economic wealth, and some have less. The “some” may be individuals or nations. Equity’s goal is to impose policies by fiat intended to close “disparities.” The power of the equity narrative is that it can be applied to anything, insofar as most of life can be divided between more and less. Such as the Covid-19 pandemic. According to multiple recent news stories, the distribution of Covid vaccines has become an equity issue. “After monopolizing initial production,” the Washington Post asserts, “rich nations have made only limited progress toward ensuring an equitable global distribution of vaccines.” It says both the International Monetary Fund and the World Bank are warning of a “two-track global recovery that would widen the economic divide between advanced and developing nations.” “Equity” is wealth redistribution, or soft socialism, repackaged as happy talk. But this is a conversation worth having. Equity talk is an opportunity for clarification about which policies are pie in the sky and which work.)

One by one, I unsubscribed after months of this digital rhetoric crowding my email accounts. I initially subscribed to Conservative News, The DC Statesman and Patriot Central (to name a few) to keep me updated and informed about views from conservative or Republican-leaning sources. I feel this is important to find the needed balance to better understand complex issues that face America. Many mainstream media sources tend to lean left, so it was important to inform myself with right-leaning stories and opinions about presidential politics, controversial issues and international affairs. I’m interested in viewpoints that don’t embody or reflect my own, as long as they’re not based on lies, mistruths or propaganda. However, after more than a year of receiving daily (and sometimes hourly) emails from so many similar-minded sources, I had to end the madness. Not so much about the content of each email, but the barrage of emails from each source. A relentless, nonstop machine of rhetoric, half-truths and twisted interpretations. Everything is viewed from the narrow prism of conservatism, just as most everything is viewed from the narrow prism of liberalism from left-leaning media sources. I couldn’t take it any longer. I figured the Fourth of July was an ideal day to purge all of those email subscriptions, including from former President Donald Trump, a billionaire who’s been asking me for donations for five years now. Honestly, I don’t know how tens of millions of Americans can absorb such predictable, inflammatory political rhetoric day after day. What I find to be emotionally exhausting must be exhilarating or validating for them. Maybe it stokes feelings of anger or suspicion or bitterness that requires fresh shovelfuls of animosity every morning in their email inbox. It only dug a hole for me, and I’m finally climbing out. No wonder our country is so divided and so cynical about anyone who thinks differently than them. I blame both radical sides, each unwilling to look for a common ground of understanding in the quicksand of political power. Each camp is convinced they’re on the right side of history — never the wrong side — regarding the polarizing issues of this era. On the Fourth, I thought about all of this while deleting more than 200 accumulated emails. It was a cathartic hour for me.)

To be clear, Pride Month is not about people. Pride Month is about politics and power. It is about demanding that everyone approve and support the LGBTQ+ movement, which again is a political movement. However, not everyone in Palatine agrees with the agenda of the LGTBQ+ movement. If we wish to live in free and diverse communities, we need to care about freedom of conscience and tolerance. People who are not aligned with the LGTBQ+ movement should not have their town taken over for political purposes one month every year. If individuals want to hang a rainbow flag on their house, that is their prerogative. If businesses want to put a rainbow in their window, that is their prerogative. But the village itself should be neutral and not make proclamations for one side or another. When the village government becomes involved, it puts pressure to participate on those who would rather not. The village in a free society should protect its citizens and business owners from coercive pressures, not encourage them.)

But his main reason for becoming a naturalized citizen, he said, was the ability to finally vote. “What if we get another president like Trump and he wants to kick us all out again?” Flores laughed.
