FORBES
— Does Resharing Past Experiences With Racism Lead To Systemic Changes? Probably Not. – Janice Gassam Asare
(COMMENT: My critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes have no problem with, if not applaud, the adverse actions that my Democrat superiors took against me and that they would not have taken against me if I had been a Democrat, minority, female, and/or veteran. My Democrat GAO superiors forced me to retire in 1997 when I was 49 years old and gave my job and my preferred corner office to my Black subordinate, gave me bad job assignments and unfair performance expectations and unfair 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 a $20,361 (21%) 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. Oldsmobile withdrew a job offer that I had accepted saying that Oldsmobile had just agreed to stop hiring Whites to settle an EEOC complaint in 1971. My Democrat Firestone Stores boss rudely fired me when I gave him my 2-week notice that I had accepted a job offer from Oldsmobile in 1971. My Democrat Post Office superiors forced me to resign in 1969 and disallowed my sick leave requests in 1969 and 1968.)

(COMMENT: Who are the elites in the organizations that you are a member of, in your municipality, in your township, in your county, and in Illinois? What do they think of you? How do they treat you? I should write a book about the elites in the Milton Township Republican Organization (MTRO), DuPage County Republican Central Committee, Illinois Republican Party, Wheaton, Milton Township, DuPage County, and Illinois who have taken the most adverse actions against me. They stopped me from raising funds from DuPage Republicans so that DuPage Republicans could help sponsor Wheaton’s 2021 Independence Day parade and fireworks. They gerrymandered my precinct in 2015. They ended my TAPROOT Republicans of Illinois chairmanship in 2012. They ended my Wheaton Chamber of Commerce Government Affairs Committee membership in 2011. They ended my MTRO webmaster service in 2010 and 2004. They ended my Illinois Center Right Coalition (ICRC) Steering Committee membership in 2007. They almost got ICRC to censure me for my GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters in 2006. They ended my bid to serve as MTRO Treasurer in 2004. They ended my American Association of Political Consultants Midwest Chapter board membership in 2004.)

I would ask them if they support the traditional marriage, right to life, immigration, illegal drugs, Second Amendment, and equal opportunity (no race or gender based preference giving) planks in the Republican Party platform.
https://www.cnn.com/2021/11/07/politics/bannon-podcast-war-room-election-lies/index.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: But Bannon has also urged “War Room” listeners to take long-term action. He has made frequent pleas for supporters to reshape the Republican party by signing up to serve as “precinct committeemen.” Those are low-level local positions. As Bannon has emphasized, though, they matter. People in precinct posts can be influential in choosing representatives to serve on local elections boards and to fill key offices within each state’s party apparatus. They also frequently serve as local elections workers. . .There is no hard data on the impact of Bannon’s call to activism. But ProPublica reported in September that counties around the country had seen an unusual surge in people looking to sign up for Republican precinct positions after Bannon began advocating the idea early this year.)

As the urban studies theorist Richard Florida wrote, the place we choose to live “can determine the income we earn, the people we meet, the friends we make, the partners we choose and the options available to our children and families.” To make that decision easier, we created a quiz using data for almost 17,000 places across more than 30 metrics. Realtor.com shared housing prices with us; Yelp contributed tallies of restaurants, music venues and gay bars; and AccuWeather helped us collect statistics on temperature, sunshine and snowfall, to name just a few of our sources.)

SPRINGFIELD STATE JOURNAL REGISTER
— AUGUST 16, 2012 FLASHBACK: A bunch of political info — daily – Bernard Schoenburg  
(UPDATE: In 2015, my critics/opponents gerrymandered my DuPage County Milton Township Precinct 9 in Wheaton. In 2016, I started putting together and sending out a GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletter each and every evening in addition to each and every morning. Since 2004, those newsletters have included links to more than 414,800 articles and information on many upcoming events. In 2021, my critics/opponents stopped me from raising funds from DuPage Republicans so that DuPage Republicans could help sponsor Wheaton’s Independence Day parade and fireworks.)
https://gopillinois.com/uncategorized/november-17-morning-edition-6/?highlight=schoenburg
(FROM THE ARTICLE: (FROM THE ARTICLE: There are lots of websites that compile political news, and I think it’s time I share one that I find quite interesting. There are lots of websites that compile political news, and I think it’s time I share one that I find quite interesting. It’s at www.gopillinois.com , and, as you can tell by its address, it has a Republican flavor. That is an understatement reinforced with the comments added by the compiler himself — DAVID DIERSEN of Wheaton. He introduced a recent UPI story about Republicans’ views on the drought and wildfires by saying: “Democrats blame everything bad, including bad weather, on Republicans, especially on Republicans who are conservative, White, male, older, non-poor and non-veteran.” And talking of a New York Times article about a photographer arrested while on assignment in the Bronx, Diersen wrote that since 2000, he has been thrown out of, barred from, or not advised of news conferences “by Democrats, Democrat plants, RINOs (Republicans in name only), their operatives, and their dupes.” Thus, if you don’t want to read some very pointed comments, you may not want to go to gopillinois.com. But you would be missing a treasure of links to the day’s news and opinion. Diersen, 63, is a retired federal employee who became the Illinois editor of a national GOP website in 2000, and since 2004 has put out his own Illinois compilation every day. There’s usually about 50 articles daily, he says. He’s generally up by 3 a.m. He says he spends at least 10 hours a day on this passion of his, with no pay, and has put out links to more than 117,000 articles. As his comments above hinted, party regulars don’t always greet his work with relish. He includes dissident voices within the GOP tent, and some whose credibility is questionable. But he puts it all out there. He’s a GOP precinct committeeman, and he believes in people having information. He also wants to help elect Republican candidates who “will defend and advance the party’s platform.” The site makes available plenty of Diersen history, too, including how his “liberal Democrat superiors,” in his view, forced him to take early retirement at 49 from the U.S. General Accounting Office, “because of his opposition to race and gender based preference and his participation in a class action lawsuit” on that subject. He wouldn’t mind my telling you that he also passed his CPA and Certified Internal Auditor exams on first attempts more than three decades ago. Agree or disagree with him, but Diersen provides a bunch of interesting information — every day.)

— Former executive accuses American Express of firing him for being White. Ex-employee, company enter mediation over EEOC complaint. – James Varney
(COMMENT: Of course, my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes side with American Express.)
https://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2021/nov/21/former-executive-accuses-american-express-firing-h/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: A former American Express executive has entered mediation with the financial services company over his federal complaint alleging he was fired for being White and opposing the firm’s diversity agenda. Brian Netzel, a 62-year-old former client manager in Arizona, filed the complaint late last month with the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission. He entered mediation with American Express on Thursday. “On October 30, 2020 AmEx unceremoniously terminated my employment as part of a ‘diversity’ policy that rewarded company executives for making their departments less ‘white,’’ his EEOC complaint states. “My termination was the direct result of me being an older white male, a demographic the company specifically sought to reduce in managerial positions like my own, and in direct retaliation for my stated opposition to AmEx’s racially discriminatory and hostile policies.” Mr. Netzel said he was fired by a higher ranking executive who profited from his termination because the company is awarding bonus points for having more people of color. American Express initiated training based on critical race theory and subsequently fired Mr. Nextel after the killing of George Floyd by Minneapolis police in May 2020, according to Mr. Netzel and company documents made public by Christopher Rufo of the Manhattan Institute.)

— Police officer fired for donating to Rittenhouse defense roars back after not-guilty verdict, wants job back – CHRIS ENLOE
(COMMENT: I should write a book about what would have happened if I had not taken my GAO Democrat superiors’ early retirement “offer” in 1997 when I was 49 years old. I would not have been eligible for regular retirement until I was 55 in 2003. They made it very clear that if I did not take their “offer,” they would make my next 6 years a living hell. Previously, they had a) given me bad job assignments, unfair performance expectations, and unfair appraisals, b) always ranked me in the bottom half of my coworkers for pay-for-performance purposes, c) did not promote me beyond GS-13, d) got rid of my mentor in 1987, e) kept me off audits of IRS for all but 3 of the almost 18 years that I worked for GAO, and f) forced me to take a $20,361 (21%) pay cut in today’s dollars to transfer from IRS to GAO in 1980. They focused on getting my supervisors, coworkers, and subordinates who were the following to hate me: Democrat, minority, female, younger, LGBTQ, veteran, disabled, moderate, liberal, non-Christian, non-Protestant, non-German American, those who had less work experience, less education, fewer professional certifications, and/or no professional licenses, those whose spouse had little or no income, those who had dependents, those who were not married, those whose ancestors had not been in America for a long time, those who had financial problems, those who had health problems, etc. All my GAO supervisors, coworkers, and subordinates were at least one of the aforesaid and most of the aforesaid were many of the aforesaid. I my book, I would focus on those who demonstrated the most hatred against me.)

https://www.theepochtimes.com/mkt_morningbrief/misinformation-about-kyle-rittenhouse-case-floods-social-media-tv-networks_4116349.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Kyle Rittenhouse shot three black men. Kyle Rittenhouse traveled across state lines with a gun. Kyle Rittenhouse had an AK-47. These are three examples of false information being spread about Rittenhouse, whose trial ended last week with his acquittal. Prominent influencers, including lawmakers and reporters, are sources of some of the misinformation—possibly disinformation—leaving experts troubled. On CBS’ “Face the Nation” on Sunday, reporter Mark Strassman falsely said Rittenhouse “drove in from Illinois armed for battle.” On CNN’s “Cuomo Prime Time” on Friday, Harvard University professor Cornell William Brooks falsely said Rittenhouse was carrying an AK-47. The Independent falsely reported late last week that Rittenhouse shot three black men. Rittenhouse, 17 years old at the time, shot three men, two fatally, with an AR-15 in Kenosha, Wisconsin, on Aug. 25, 2020. All were white, as is Rittenhouse. The gun was bought by a friend and was picked up by the teenager, who resided in Illinois, from a home in Kenosha.)

But of course, my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes stress that was much easier to do back then. The money a) for tuition and books at UIC 1966-1968, b) for tuition, books, and room and board at NIU 1969-1970, and c) for a new 1968 Oldsmobile 442 in 1967 and a new 1969 Dodge Charger SE in 1968 came from what I earned working part-time for the Park Forest Post Office 1966-1969. My parents provided me with room and board in their home in Crete 1966-1968, weekends during my first semester at NIU in 1969, and the summer of 1969.)

Of course, my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes have used that against me ever since. They use my taking a pay cut to hint/imply/argue/shout a) that IRS grossly overpaid me, b) that IRS should not have promoted me in 1972, 1973, or 1974, c) that my IRS work experience was worthless, d) that the MBA that I earned from Loyola in 1976 was worthless, e) that my passing the CPA examination on my first attempt in 1979 was worthless, and f) that my almost completing the requirements for a master’s degree in accounting from DePaul was worthless.)

FAST COMPANY
— The growing importance of pay transparency – LISA RABASCA ROEPE
(COMMENT: I should write a book about taking a pay cut. Pay is transparent in the federal government. In 1980, when I was 31 years old, all my IRS and GAO superiors, supervisors, coworkers, and subordinates knew that GAO forced me to take a 21% pay cut ($20,361/year in today’s dollars) to transfer from IRS to GAO. Of course, my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes have used that against me ever since. They use my taking a pay cut to hint/imply/argue/shout a) that IRS grossly overpaid me, b) that IRS should not have promoted me in 1972, 1973, or 1974, c) that my IRS work experience was worthless, d) that the MBA that I earned from Loyola in 1976 was worthless, e) that my passing the CPA examination on my first attempt in 1979 was worthless, and f) that my almost completing the requirements for a master’s degree in accounting from DePaul was worthless.)

DAILY MAIL
— More than HALF of NYPD cops wish they had never joined force, internal memo says, as NYC faces historic crime surge and woke politics that are ‘destroying’ Big Apple – MICHELLE THOMPSON
(COMMENT: In 1980, when I was 31 years old, I agreed to suffer a 21% pay cut ($20,361/year in today’s dollars) to transfer from IRS to GAO in part because GAO claimed to be nonpartisan. I soon learned that claim was false and that GAO was far more partisan than IRS. I should write a book about how the Democrats who ran GAO’s Chicago office a) gave preference to their employees who were Democrat, and especially to those who were minority, female, younger, veteran, moderate, liberal, non-Christian, non-Protestant, non-German American, and/or those whose ancestors had not been in America for a long time, that is, they discriminated against their employees who Republican, and especially against those who were White, male, older, non-veteran, conservative, Christian, Protestant, German American, and/or those whose ancestors had been in America for a long time. If I had been a Democrat, GAO would have promoted me into its Senior Executive Service long before I was 40 years old. In 1981, I passed the Certified Internal Auditor examination on my first attempt and became a licensed CPA. In 1980, I earned a master’s degree in accounting from DePaul. In 1979, I passed the CPA examination on my first attempt. In 1976, I earned an MBA from Loyola. But because I was a Democrat, because I opposed patronage, political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, and age discrimination, and because in 1988 I became an active member in a class action lawsuit that charged my GAO superiors with reverse discrimination, age discrimination, and retaliation, they forced me to retire in 1997 when I was 49 years old, gave me unfair job assignments, performance expectations, and performance 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 a $20,361 (21%) pay cut in today’s dollars to transfer from IRS to GAO in 1980.)

In today’s dollars, my ending Post Office salary was $17.93/hour, my ending IRS salary was $97,395/year, and my ending GAO salary was $132,845/year. Many millions have not and will not seek a job with the federal government a) because the pay and benefits are terrible, b) because the advancement opportunities are terrible, c) because they lack required education, work experience, professional certifications, and/or professional licenses, d) because they cannot pass an employment examination, e) because they cannot pass a background investigation, f) because they cannot pass a physical examination, g) because they cannot take the demonization, denigration, and condemnation that comes with being a federal employee or federal retiree, and/or h) because they are Republican, White, male, older, and/or non-veteran and they know that the federal government discriminates against the aforesaid.)

POLITICO ILLINOIS
— Cook County Dems’ Super Tuesday – SHIA KAPOS
(COMMENT: The Illinois Republican Party, DuPage County Republican Central Committee, and Milton Township Republican Organization do not have an “open process.”)
https://www.politico.com/newsletters/illinois-playbook/2021/11/17/cook-county-dems-super-tuesday-495135
(FROM THE ARTICLE: There was pizza, beer and political drama last night as hundreds of Cook County Democrats gathered in restaurants and school classrooms on Chicago’s North Side to cast their ballots for candidates they want to endorse in 2022. Some wards are still counting, but Norwood Park and 38th Ward Democrats announced at about 10:30 p.m. that they’re endorsing Alexi Giannoulias for Illinois secretary of state, Tom Dart for another term as Cook County sheriff and Kari Steele for Cook County assessor — a surprise given she’s a South Sider competing against incumbent Fritz Kaegi. Official slating is Dec. 13 and 14. Talk about democracy at work. Last night’s pre-slating process was a far cry from the old days of backroom decision-making about who would appear on campaign literature and mailings. “Now we make decisions collectively and openly and everyone who’s involved in electing Democrats gets a say in the process,” Paul Rosenfeld, the 47th Ward Committeeman, told Playbook after leaving DePaul College Prep, where candidates spoke for up to five minutes and took questions from Democrats in the ward. Democrats from the 40th Ward were also in that slating. In all of the locations on the North Side, party members took a ballot before taking their seats and listening to the candidates. Everyone gave their elevator pitch about why they deserve an endorsement, including 14 water reclamation candidates — who gave an earful about flooding and “green infrastructure.” Even Cook County Board President Toni Preckwinkle, who doesn’t have a challenger for 2022, went through the process. There was energy in the crowd and plenty of chatter about issues. “It was good to be together again talking about politics,” a Democrat from the 41st Ward said after leaving Dino’s Pizzeria, a joint owned by County Commissioner Kevin Morrison’s family and where beer and thin slice pizza was served (on the North Side no less). Democrats from the 39th and 50th wards were also at Dino’s. The open process for slating candidates has been a gradual change. It has nothing to do with new leadership in the state Democratic Party, which is also calling for more transparency. It’s come about because the patronage system, which was common as recently as 10 years ago, has ended. Ward bosses can’t hand out jobs, so they are looking for new ways to engage Democrats and keep them excited for volunteering. Being part of the decision process does that. And the beer helps.)
— Republican state Rep. Seth Lewis is running for the Illinois Senate’s 24th District seat. Lewis currently represents the 45th House District. “I love being the voice in Springfield for the communities that I currently represent,” Lewis said in a statement. “After the implementation of the new legislative maps, I am fortunate to have the opportunity to continue serving our region on a greater scale by running for the state Senate. My goal as an elected official remains to make Illinois a place where people want to live, not to leave.” – SHIA KAPOS

DAILY HERALD
— ‘You cannot overfund this’: Milton Township officials debate mental health spending – Katlyn Smith
https://www.dailyherald.com/news/20211116/you-cannot-overfund-this-milton-township-officials-debate-mental-health-spending
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Township trustees and Supervisor John Monino tentatively agreed to raise property taxes by roughly $800,000 for the 708 mental health board, named for a state House resolution and created by a referendum vote last spring. A final decision on the tax levy is expected on Dec. 14. . .But township trustees were wary of allocating more money for the first grant cycle, though Monino said the board’s request wasn’t “out of line.” “I think that $1 million is a bit much right now,” said Trustee Jeff Castle, adding that he wanted to see what the board will do next year with the township funding. Trustees gave preliminary approval to a tax increase that would cost the owner of a home with an assessed value of $128,444 — the average in Milton Township — an estimated $17.60. The township covers all or parts of Wheaton, Glen Ellyn, Carol Stream, Lombard, Glendale Heights and Winfield. “It strikes the right balance between fiscal responsibility and providing for the needs of the community,” Trustee Dan Milinko said of the lower amount.)

— Democrats seeing rural voter disconnect – Scott Reeder
(COMMENT: What are your connections with farming? On my father’s side, my ancestors homesteaded a farm in Crete in 1854 and my grandmother was born on a farm in Crete. On my mother’s side, my ancestors were sharecroppers on a farm in Grant Park on the Indiana border. My mother was born on that farm. I spent many summer days there during the 1950s and early 1960s.)

— FEBRUARY 27, 2017 FLASHBACK: 10 Times You Should Take a Pay Cut – SUZANNE LUCAS
(COMMENT: GAO audits IRS. When I transferred from IRS to GAO in 1980 when I was 31 years old, my Democrat GAO superiors, supervisors, coworkers, and subordinates did not want me to transfer, but failing that, they wanted me to transfer as a GS-4 Step 1 (currently $34,956/year) intern, that is, to suffer a $62,439/year (64%) pay cut in today’s dollars. They painted what GAO Analysts do as being a unique “trade or occupation.” They would not have done that if I had been a Democrat, minority, female, or veteran. They viciously demonized, denigrated, and condemned the fact a) that I had worked for IRS as a Revenue Officer for almost 9 years, the last 5 1/2 years of which at the GS-12 Step 1-5 levels, currently $85,935-$97,395/year, b) that much of what IRS Revenue Officers do is similar to what GAO Analysts do, c) that I had passed the CPA examination on my first attempt in 1979, d) that I had earned an MBA from Loyola in 1976, and e) that I had almost completed the requirements for a master’s degree in accounting from DePaul. They were furious a) that I suffered a pay cut of only $20,361/year (21%) in today’s dollars to transfer and b) that I transferred with me almost 12 years of federal seniority, 30 days of unused vacation days, and 130 unused sick days.)
