If I had gotten a student loan, my GPA would have been much higher because instead of studying, I worked all the hours that I could delivering mail for the Park Forest Post Office while I completed courses at UIC and NIU 1966-1969. Further, I would have majored in accounting instead of management. Further, I would have taken and passed the CPA examination much sooner than I did. What are main reasons why borrowers cannot pay their loans back? If my GPA had been higher, I could have gotten a better paying job when I graduated.)

CHICAGO TRIBUNE
— Evanston City Council to discuss hosting temporary migrant shelter – ALEX HULVALCHICK (COMMENT: Under the Democrats and under the RINOs: Evanston today, your municipality tomorrow.)
https://www.chicagotribune.com/2024/04/08/evanston-city-council-to-discuss-hosting-temporary-migrant-shelter/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The Evanston City Council on Monday is set to discuss applying for Cook County funding to provide temporary shelter for displaced migrants sent to Chicagoland from the southern border. The funding is available for the housing of “new arrivals,” defined by the county as “an individual who crossed the Mexico/U.S. border on or after August 1, 2022, with the intent to stay permanently, and who does not possess any permanent or interim U.S. legal status (which does not include being in parole status), such as legal permanent residency, a student or work visa, etc.” Funding can be used to pay for rent, repairs and improvements to make sites operational for use as temporary shelters including food, wraparound and resettlement services. Estimated operating costs would reach approximately $2 million, not including necessary repairs. Applications for the funding are due April 19. According to a memo in the Monday meeting agenda, the city hasn’t previously considered applying for the funding because it wasn’t aware of any properties vacant or safe enough that would suffice. The city was notified on March 28 of a possible site with city staff and the Evanston Fire Department inspecting the property Wednesday. This site, located at 1020 Church Street, is a two-story office space with enough open space and smaller offices to house anywhere from 60 to 65 individuals along with a kitchenette, two shower stalls and multiple restrooms. Before being able to take anyone in, the building will require several repairs including installation of a fire sprinkler system wherever people are expected to sleep, more bathroom and shower stalls, upgrades to electrical and HVAC systems and more. Another possible site mentioned in the memo is the soon-to-be vacant Morton Civic Center, where city operations are currently housed. City offices are set to move to a leased office downtown starting in July and could house more people than the office building at 1020 Church Street. Since the city owns the building, grant funding wouldn’t have to be used to pay rent and could be used solely for repairs that are needed in the building. Those repairs were the driving force behind moving city operations downtown as the city wasn’t open to spending the money needed to bring the building up to par. The city reached out to Connections for the Homeless, a local homelessness nonprofit, to take on the role of managing the shelter. Connections’ Director of Communications Eric Ruder said the nonprofit welcomes conversations about partnering with the city on the shelter. Connections CEO Betty Bog said it’s important to take every opportunity to build more shelter to supplement the severe housing shortage. “Many in the Evanston community and staff have been searching for ways to assist new arrivals,” read the memo, “Applying for grant dollars to convert space into a temporary shelter could move the City toward managing a transitional shelter at 1020 Church indefinitely — on the one hand, this could be an asset to the City … on the other hand, it could place meaningful strain on the City.”)

In my defense, I earned a bachelor’s degree in management from NIU in 1970, I earned an MBA from Loyola in 1976, and I passed the CPA examination on my first attempt in 1979.).

Further, I oppose political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, and age discrimination.)
https://southernillinoisnow.com/2024/04/09/judge-releases-questionnaire-for-jury-selection-process-in-trump-hush-money-trial/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Prosecutive jurors will be asked if they have ever attended one of Trump’s rallies, if they belong to groups like the Proud Boys or Antifa, or if they volunteered with a political entity associated with the former president. “Do you have any strong opinions or firmly held beliefs about whether a former president may be criminally charged in a state court?” one question asks. “Do you have any feelings about how Mr. Trump is being treated in this case?” Other questions ask if prosecutive jurors have read any of Trump’s books, can set aside their past knowledge of the case, or have opinions on the legal limits related to political contributions. “Do you have any strong opinions or firmly held beliefs about former President Donald Trump or the fact that he is a current candidate for president that would interfere with your ability to be a fair or impartial juror?” another question asked. Jurors will also be asked standard preliminary questions, including their marital status, employment status, hobbies, criminal history and potential scheduling conflicts. Merchan, borrowing from an approach taken for the Trump Organization criminal trial, opted to excuse any jurors who self-identify as unfair or partial.)

— In retrospect, with benefit of hindsight, what would you have done sooner? I would have majored in accounting and passed the CPA examination and became a licensed CPA sooner. As it was, I did not take and pass the CPA examination until I was 30 years old and I did not become a licensed CPA until I was 32. By then, because of my bad demographics (conservative, Republican, White, male, non-veteran, Protestant, 100% German American, and my ancestors have been in America since 1844), I was much “too old” to have a successful career in accounting. My Democrat IRS and GAO superiors made that crystal clear. All my coworkers who they promoted over me were Democrats a) who had less work experience than I had, b) who had less education than I had, c) who had no professional certifications or fewer than I had, and/or d) who had no professional license like the one I had. Overwhelmingly, they were minority, female, younger than me, veteran, non-Protestant, non-German American, and/or had ancestors who had not been in America for a long time.

They hint/imply/argue/shout that if I had not gotten married in 1978, I would not have been able to a) buy two news cars and a home in Wheaton in 1978, b) pass the CPA examination on my first attempt in 1979, c) suffer a $22,996 (21%) pay cut in today’s dollars to transfer from IRS to GAO in 1980, d) earn a master’s degree in accounting from DePaul in 1980, e) pass the Certified Internal Auditor examination on my first attempt in 1981, f) become a licensed CPA in 1981, g) have a home built in Wheaton in 1984, h) etc. In my defense, when I got married, a) my IRS salary was $106,785/year in today’s dollars, b) I had earned an MBA from Loyola in 1976, c) I owned a one bedroom condo in the Outer Drive East building, d) I owned a townhome in University Park that I had bought new in 1972, and e) I owned a 1972 Corvette that I had bought new in 1971. I am proud to say that my wife earned a bachelor’s degree in finance from DePaul in 1986. Obviously, her savings and income helped us financially.)

DAILY MAIL
— Ex-Chicago mayor Lori Lightfoot is hired on $400-PER-HOUR contract to investigate ‘America’s worst mayor’ amid embezzlement accusations after she admitted $2M hole in taxpayer funds from small Illinois town. Self-described ‘Super Mayor’ Tiffany Henyard, 40, has been accused of embezzling taxpayer funds and retaliating against a victim of sexual assault. Lightfoot – who was ousted as mayor of Chicago last year – was approved by the village to investigate Henyard’s alleged corruption at the cost of $400 per hour. She may not get very far, however, as Henyard’s mayoral powers extend to potentially vetoing the probe. – STEPHEN M. LEPORE

Let’s be respectful of each other at work. – Editorial (COMMENT: While I worked for the Democrats who ran GAO’s Chicago office 1980-1997, virtually all of my superiors, supervisors, coworkers, and subordinates were Democrats. Toward the end, there were virtually no Republicans. If I was still working there, they would be making my life even more of a living hell for me because I have always been a conservative Republican, and on top of that. I am White, male, old (born in 1948), draft avoider, Protestant,100% German American, my ancestors have been in America since 1844, Crete resident 1948-1972, and Wheaton resident since 1978. GAO is less than a shell of what it once was because of massive Republican-led budget cuts during the 1980s and 1990s.)

— No Jobs For Illegal Aliens, Period – MARK MECKLER (COMMENT: What bad jobs have you had? According to my critics/opponents, all the jobs that I had were bad jobs that they would never stoop to take. Will illegal aliens take the bad jobs that I had? I a) did yard work 1962-1964, b) delivered newspapers 1962-1966, c) washed dishes 1964-1966, d) cleaned golf shoes, chipped slag, and pumped gasoline in 1966, 1971, and 1972, e) delivered mail 1966-1969, and f) worked on an automobile assembly line in 1970.)
https://dailycaller.com/2024/04/07/mark-meckler-job-program-americans-illegal-aliens/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: I am weary of hearing the trope that we need more illegal aliens because “Americans won’t work those jobs.” My bet is that most Americans share this sentiment as well. Amidst a myriad of concerns about illegal immigration, one prominent worry among Americans is the potential adverse effects on the U.S. workforce. There is apprehension that undocumented migrants could potentially displace native-born workers, leading to job loss and further exacerbating the nation’s tax burden. The media and the left love to dismiss such considerations as fearful, xenophobic, and bigoted, arguing instead that alien workers fill a vital gap in the American workforce. But these concerns, nevertheless, are valid. To argue that the American people refuse to work jobs that must alternatively be filled by undocumented workers is nothing less than a slanderous attack against the natives of this country. Americans will work these jobs… when the pay rates go to market rates and are not depressed by illegal-alien rates.)

All of them spent a tremendous amount of their time and money raising their children. Almost all of their spouses had little or no income. Ever-increasingly, they painted themselves as having been passed over for promotions because they lacked job-related masters degrees, professional licenses, and/or professional licenses. I did not marry until I was 29, my wife always had good-paying jobs, we gave up trying to have children, we did not adopt, and we did not become foster parents. Ever-increasingly, my Democrat superiors and supervisors used the aforesaid against me, they ever-increasingly hinted/implied/argued/shouted that the aforesaid gave me tremendous unfair advantages over them and over everyone else and that if I had gotten married earlier and had children like they did, I would not have been able to earn job-related a) master’s degrees when I was 27, 31, and 48, b) professional certifications when I was 30, 32, 41, 45, 47, and 48, and c) a professional license when I was 32. I should write a book about the aforesaid.)

While I worked for the Democrats who ran the Post Office 1966-1969, IRS 1971-1980, and GAO 1980-1997, I focused on the importance of the agency’s missions. I focused on earning job-related college degrees, professional certifications, and a professional license.

— What Are You Thankful For? – Kathy Gurchiek (COMMENT: Careerwise, because of my bad demographics (conservative, Republican, White, male, Protestant, German American, and my ancestor have been in America since 1844), I am thankful that I was not born any later than I was. Ever-increasingly, under the Democrats and under the RINOs, career advancement is more difficult if not impossible for those who share my demographics. The Democrats who ran the Post Office when I was 16 in 1966, IRS when I was 22, and GAO when I was 31 hired me despite my bad demographics, but if I was 18, 22, or 31 today, they would not hire me today. The Democrats who ran IRS in 1972, 1973, and 1974 promoted me when I was 23, 24, and 25 despite my bad demographics, but if I was 23, 24, or 25 today, they would not promote me today. The Democrats who ran GAO in 1986 promoted me when I was 38 despite my bad demographics, but if I was 38 today, they would not promote me today.)

They stressed what I would not have been able to do the following as soon or if ever if I had not avoided the draft: a) buying new cars (1967, 1968, 1971, 1973, and 1978), b) going on vacations to Florida (1969 and 1970), c) earning college degrees (1970, 1976, 1980), d) buying real estate (1972, 1974, 1976, 1980, 1984), e) going on vacations to the Bahamas, Mexico, Jamacia, and Hawaii (1973-1976), f) getting married (1979), g) earning professional certifications (1979 and 1981), h) earning a professional license (1981), i) etc.)

WORLD RECORD ACADEMY
— World’s Youngest CPA, world record set by James “Jimmy” Chilimigras (COMMENT: I passed the CPA examination on my first attempt in 1979 when I was 30 years old. 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. But because I am a White male, employers saw me as being far too old to have a successful career in accounting. I should write a book about that.)

GOPUSA ILLINOIS
— Political parties exist to help elect candidates who can and will defend and advance their platform. The Republican Party platform is conservative. Trump is the Republican Party’s presumptive nominee. If you are a Republican and not a RINO, Democrat plant, Libertarian plant, Green plant, or Independent plant and if you are not involved in Republican politics to get more preference for yourself and/or for those who share your demographics, please consider being a delegate to the Illinois Republican Party State Convention at the Gateway Convention Center in Collinsville May 24 and 25 – Dave Diersen
http://www.gopillinois.com

I have been a delegate to all the Illinois Republican Party (IRP) State Conventions since 2000. I served on the IRP Platform and Resolutions Committee at the 2008 convention and I will serve again on that committee this year representing the 3rd Congressional District.

Illinois counties are allowed one delegate for every 500 Republican ballots cast in the preceding primary. Approximately 50,000 Republican ballots were cast in the March 19 primary in DuPage County, so approximately 100 can be delegates from DuPage County. If you are interested in being a delegate, contact the chairman of your Republican county party organization as soon as possible. Statutes call for delegates to be approved at County Conventions. The DuPage County Republican County Convention will be held on April 17 at the DuPage County Auditorium.

Registration for the convention is $75 and that covers training sessions on Friday and Saturday, welcome reception Friday evening, attendance at the General Session, and other events that are being scheduled. The registration form is at: https://rcca.gop/wp-content/uploads/2024/03/IRSC-Registration-Form.pdf A convention volunteer sign up form is at: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLScuK6xKCAxz-a7cUkUn_TSaQbbV48UvBTbeXUBzzlzJlWFiVQ/viewform Hotel information is at: https://rcca.gop/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/IRSC-Hotel-Sheet.pdf GOPUSA ILLINOIS will have a table in the vendor hall.

Delegates will vote on various resolutions brought to the convention floor. The full schedule for the convention is currently being finalized and will be published once complete. At the convention, delegates play a crucial role in shaping party decisions and policies. The convention is an unparalleled opportunity to network with fellow activists and right-thinking people.

Delegate responsibilities include:

— Representation: Delegates represent their local communities or districts. They participate in discussions, vote on party matters, and advocate for their constituents’ interests.

— Selecting Candidates: Delegates help choose party candidates for various offices such as National Committeeman and National Committeewoman, and delegates to the Republican National Convention.
— Platform Development: Delegates influence the party’s platform, and ultimately approve the party’s platform. The platform outlines the party’s stance on critical issues.

— Networking and Advocacy: Delegates interact with fellow party members, build connection, and advocate for specific policies or candidates.

Attending the convention is a great way to get involved in the Republican Party and network with like-minded conservatives.

My Democrat GAO superiors misled me into believing that they nevertheless were going to let me work until I was eligible to take regular retirement when I would be 55 years old in 2003. But when was 49 years old in September of 1997, they succeeded in forcing me to take their early retirement “offer” that expired on September 30, 1997. They would have let me work until I was eligible to take early retirement if I had not became an active member in a class action lawsuit in 1988 that charged them with reverse discrimination, age discrimination, and retaliation. I would not have become an active member in that lawsuit if they had not outrageously a) forced me to take a $22,996 (21%) pay cut in today’s dollars to transfer from IRS to GAO in 1980, b) given me bad job assignments and unfair performance expectations and appraisals, c) delayed my promotions and never promoted me beyond GS-13, d) kept me off audits of IRS 1980-1985, and d) thrown me off audits of IRS in 1988.

WASHINGTON EXAMINER
— Democrats should be jittery about Pennsylvania voter registration trends – Salena Zito
https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/opinion/2954573/democrats-should-be-jittery-about-pennsylvania-voter-registration-trends/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: If you are a longtime resident of Pennsylvania, it still is a bit of a jolt to the senses to drive through what was once coal country and see an oversized, cheery, red billboard sitting along U.S. 30 reading “VOTE REPUBLICAN.” However, it is a reminder of how much the people who live in these old industrial and coal-rich counties have shed the local Democratic politics of their upbringing. Voter registration numbers, as we shall see, show as much. Important to note: These voters have not changed personally, but their parties have done so. Democrats have abandoned their working-class voters for college-educated elites who rarely call the middle of somewhere home. Officials in both parties in Washington — whether they are lawmakers on Capitol Hill or strategists working for one of the alphabet soup campaign arms of the House, Senate, or state legislatures, or a staffer for any of them — often struggle with how to appeal to these citizens.)

A long-term study done in the Netherlands showed that over time, children grow out of their gender confusion. The study was conducted over 25 years using 2,772 11-year-olds from the general population. They were asked periodically to respond to the statement, “I wish to be the opposite sex.”)

NEW YORK DAILY NEWS
— Eric Adams welcomes Texas Gov. Greg Abbott to NYC with offer to sleep at a migrant shelter – MICHAEL GARTLAND (COMMENT: Democrat and RINO leaders ever-increasingly a) promote illegal immigration and b) blame Republicans for the terrible problems their illegals cause.)
https://www.nydailynews.com/2024/04/04/eric-adams-welcomes-texas-gov-greg-abbott-to-nyc-with-offer-to-sleep-at-a-migrant-shelter/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Mayor Adams offered a sarcastic helping hand to Texas Gov. Greg Abbott during his New York City stay, saying Thursday that the Republican could sleep in a migrant shelter “so he can see what he has created.” Abbott, who has helped feed the migrant crisis in the city through a policy of busing thousands of migrants from Texas since 2022, was expected to be in New York for an annual Republican fundraiser. His sojourn to the Big Apple is widely viewed as a window into the GOP’s strategic thinking as the presidential contest and national congressional races heat up. Asked about the governor’s visit, Adams suggested Abbott lodge in one of the many Humanitarian Emergency Response and Relief Centers, or HERRCs, that the city has set up to accommodate the more than 180,000 migrants who’ve flooded in during Adams’ term in City Hall. “I’m going to offer him a stay in one of the HERRCs, so he can see what he has created and understand how we are treating people with the dignity and respect that he should have shown,” Adams said during a press conference in City Hall. “I’m not quite sure why he’s here and what he’s doing while here,” the mayor continued. “But he’s going to see how you can manage the crisis with coordination.” Abbott’s office did not immediately respond to an email and declined to comment over the phone. For months, Adams has lambasted Abbott for failing to coordinate with the city in his response to the migrant situation and has blamed him for pawning off the crisis on cities around the U.S. He has also criticized President Biden over national immigration policy. The mayor, as well, has weathered his own criticisms, with advocates pouncing on him for seeking to diminish the city’s right to shelter law and for the waits for shelter some migrants have experienced. Adams has contended that his administration has been successful in encouraging migrants to find housing elsewhere by limiting shelter stays to 30 or 60 days. In January, he and the city’s top lawyer announced the city was suing 17 charter bus companies responsible for transporting migrants to New York. On Thursday night, Abbott addressed his policy of sending migrants to New York City, drawing a rebuke from an Adams spokesman. The Texas governor attempted to place blame for the policy on Adams, claiming he only started sending migrants to New York City after coming under criticism from the mayor. “After a while I figured, gosh, if I’m gonna get the criticism, I want to get the credit and thus began the busing of illegal migrants to the sanctuary city of New York,” he said at the state GOP’s annual gala at the Hilton in Midtown. The mayor’s office disputed that account. “Remember that [Abbott] lied in 2022 about this and falsely claimed we never reached out when we found he was bussing migrants to NYC before he finally admitted to doing so,” tweeted Adams spokesman Fabien Levy.)

However, if I had to sell that town home, I would have had to sell it at a loss. In today’s dollars, my IRS salary was $54,728 in 1971, $66,942 in 1972, and $80,994 in 1973. Of course, according to my critics/opponents I was grossly overpaid and promoted far too fast. In my defense, I completed four graduate evening business courses a year at Loyola in 1972, 1973, 1974, and 1975. Further, I successfully completed a major developmental assignment during 1973 and 1974.)

https://www.aol.com/ri-gop-party-goes-volunteer-191219620.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The Rhode Island Republican Party’s executive director has stepped down and, at least in the short term, will not be replaced. Jesus Solorio, who was hired as state GOP executive director in March 2022, announced Monday that he had left the party to form his own political consultancy. “It’s been an honor serving as the Rhode Island GOP executive director for the past two years,” Solorio wrote in a news release, which described the specialty of his new firm, Homan Street Strategies, as “empowering candidates with the precise tools and strategies needed to turn blue seats red.” During his time at the Rhode Island Republican Party, Solorio saw very few blue seats turn red in Rhode Island as Democrats maintained their grip on statewide offices and most city halls and commanding majorities in the General Assembly. State party Chairman Joe Powers Monday said the organization had “not put in a plan to fill the position straight away” and would be returning to the all-volunteer arrangement that was in place from 2018 until Solorio’s hiring in 2022. Solorio came to Rhode Island from Illinois, where he had been the Latino outreach/volunteer coordinator for then-candidate and future one-term governor Bruce Rauner before launching his own unsuccessful campaign for Congress. Solorio was alerted to the Rhode Island job by Ashley Kalus, a fellow Rauner campaign alum who won the Republican nomination for governor of Rhode Island in 2022, but lost to Gov. Dan McKee. More recently, Solorio came under pressure in January when the party struggled to collect the necessary signatures to get all Republican presidential candidates on the state primary ballot. The four Republicans challenging presumptive GOP nominee Donald Trump did ultimately qualify for the primary ballot.)

They outrageously and falsely argued that the graduate Loyola business and DePaul accounting courses I deducted were not related to my job duties, did not maintain or improve my job skills, qualified me for a new trade or business, and were taken by me to get a job in the private sector. They outrageously and falsely ignored/dismissed/belittled that fact that the employee manual they gave me encouraged me to take the courses, the content of my position descriptions, and the reasons I gave for my taking the courses in my Loyola and DePaul applications. I should write a book about the aforesaid.)

Neither of my parents attended college. My father was only the first of my ancestors to earn a high school diploma. My mother never attended high school.

AMERICAN THINKER
— Understanding the Democrats’ immigration strategy – Amil Imani
https://www.americanthinker.com/blog/2024/03/understanding_the_democrats_immigration_strategy.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The Democrats’ unrelenting focus on immigration, particularly the issue of uncontrolled immigration, is cause for concern that goes beyond mere debate and speculation. Beneath the surface, posturing lies a deception that extends beyond the mere games of representation and power in the United States. The Democrats’ emphasis on immigration is not a mere coincidence or a short-term political maneuver. Rather, it is deeply rooted in their long-term vision of reshaping the demographic and political landscape of the United States. By advocating for more inclusive immigration policies, the Democrats aim to solidify their support base and gain a strategic advantage in future elections.)

— Washington Post takes aim at ‘Star-Spangled Banner’ writer Francis Scott Key after namesake Baltimore bridge collapse. Because of his mixed record on racial issues, monuments to Key have been defaced, and critics have called for institutions named after him to be renamed. – Madeline Martin
https://thepostmillennial.com/washington-post-takes-aim-at-star-spangled-banner-writer-francis-scott-key-after-namesake-baltimore-bridge-collapse
(FROM THE ARTICLE: On Wednesday, however, the Washington Post decided that there was a more important discussion to be had. You see the bridge collapse and the deaths and the horror and thee economic impact don’t translate to racial injustice, inclusivity or reparations and that simply would not suffice for the newspaper darling of the leftist gestapo. And so it followed that the Washington Post frankensteined together their own special contribution to the annals of history that will one day recount the tragedy. The issue here was the man who the bridge was named after, one Francis Key Scott. This was the real meat of the story, the rest just gristle and unsavory bits to be butchered out by WaPo the Woke. And so by Wednesday, the Washington Post’s London correspondent Annabelle Timsit had penned an article titled “Who was Francis Scott Key, controversial poet the bridge is named after?” Francis Scott Key is best known for writing the poem that became America’s national anthem, “The Star-Spangled Banner.” He wrote the lyrics the morning after an 1814 British attack on Fort McHenry, which is right by the collapsed bridge. “As The Washington Post previously reported, ‘The Star-Spangled Banner’ did not become the national anthem until more than a century after it was written because of controversy, partly over Key’s racist views,” the Post wrote. “One section of the poem’s third verse, in particular, has come under scrutiny from those who say it was intended to mock or threaten African Americans who escaped slavery to join the British forces, after being promised land in exchange for their service,” the paper continued. The verse in question reads, “No refuge could save the hireling and slave, From the terror of flight or the gloom of the grave, And The Star-Spangled Banner in triumph doth wave, O’er the land of the free and the home of the brave.” The Post also reminded readers that Key was a slave owner who opposed abolition and made racist remarks about black people. However, the paper also acknowledged that critics have pointed out that as a lawyer, Key defended several slaves, and he freed several of his own slaves. Because of his mixed record on racial issues, monuments to Key have been defaced, and critics have called for institutions named after him to be renamed. In 2017, vandals defaced the Francis Scott Key Monument in Baltimore with red paint and spray-painted “Racist Anthem” and “blood on his hands.”)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: Murkowski and fellow Trump critic Sen. Susan Collins, R-Maine, had endorsed Trump challenger Nikki Haley ahead of Super Tuesday. But Haley dropped her bid after losing every primary contest except Vermont and Washington, D.C. Before Haley ended her campaign, Murkowski told NBC News that she wasn’t sure how she’d approach the presidential election if Haley dropped out — and signaled she wasn’t alone in her uncertainty. “Lisa Murkowski is not the only one in this camp right now,” she said. Murkowski is among the seven Republican senators who voted to convict Trump in his second impeachment trial after the Jan. 6, 2021, Capitol attack and became a target for Trump and his allies.)

I would focus on my Democrat superiors in the federal government. Gattis died on July 5, 1967 from injuries he suffered in his first deployment in Quang Tri province. My critics/opponents stressed that unlike Gattis who enlisted, I avoided the Vietnam War draft with student deferments 1966-1970 and a financial hardship draft deferment 1970-1971. When Gattis died, I was working for the Park Forest Post Office, earning credits toward a Civil Service Retirement System pension, and driving a 1966 Pontiac Tempest Sprint. My critics/opponents stressed that I paint myself as being conservative, Republican, and patriotic. They stressed that because of my health problems, if I had not avoided the draft, I would not have been sent into combat anyway. I could not run because I had a bone disease, my eyesight could not be corrected to 20/20, and I had partial red/green color blindness. They painted me as being a big coward and a big hypocrite. They stressed that because I avoided the draft, I was able to buy a 1968 Oldsmobile 442 in 1967 and a 1969 Dodge Charger SE in 1968 and that I drove that Charger from NIU to Florida for spring breaks in 1969 and 1970. They called me “Daytona Dave.” The Vietnam War did not end until April 30, 1975. Prior to then, while my peers were dying in Vietnam, I earned a bachelor’s degree in management from NIU in 1970. I bought a new 1972 Covette in 1971. I bought a new town home in University Park in 1972. I bought a studio condo in downtown Chicago in 1974. I got promoted to GS-12, currently $97,079/year, in 1974. I completed 13 graduate evening business courses at Loyola. I went on vacations to the Bahamas, Hawaii, Mexico, and Jamaica.)

To have money to buy cars and to pay for college expenses, I a) did yard work 1962-1964, b) delivered newspapers 1962-1966, c) washed dishes 1964-1966, d) cleaned golf shoes, chipped slag, and pumped gasoline in 1966, e) delivered mail 1966-1969, and f) worked on an automobile assembly line in 1970. If there had been as many illegals back then as there are now, they would have gotten the jobs that I got. If I still would have gotten those jobs, my salaries would have been lower because illegals drive salaries down for bad jobs.)

— ‘708’ mental health taxing boards: Are Illinois voters schizoid or just depressed? – Mark Glennon
https://wirepoints.org/708-mental-health-taxing-boards-are-illinois-voters-schizoid-or-just-depressed-wirepoints/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Why would anybody in Illinois vote to create a new taxing authority to add to property tax bills? With property taxes being the second highest among the states and with polls consistently saying they are a top voter concern, you wouldn’t think such a thing could pass in a referendum anywhere the state. But many Illinois townships and counties vote to do just that, creating what are called “708 boards.” The boards are specifically empaneled to address local mental health needs and can only be created by local voter referendums. Some 90 of them now exist, according to a group called Advocate for 708. Proponents say they help fill gaps in available mental health services. Panel members are appointed by township or county boards, which also approve grants. The 708 boards are taxing jurisdictions with their own power to levy a local property tax of up to 0.15% of assessed value. The cap is set by state law. That’s typically a small amount for an average homeowner, supporters say – “less than the price of a weekly cup of coffee ($1.85),” according to Advocate for 708. Illinois, however, is already notorious for the number of different units of government it has – 8,923 by one count – far more than any other state. A new 708 panel means another line item on property tax bills.)

Those adverse actions include 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) not promoting me, d) delaying my promotions, e) forcing me to suffer a big pay cut to transfer, f) disallowing my education deductions, travel vouchers, and sick leave requests, g) firing me, and h) forcing me to resign. They would not have taken the aforesaid adverse actions against me if I had been a Democrat and especially if I had been a minority, female, younger, and/or veteran. And even more especially if a) I had not complained about political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, and age discrimination, and b) I had not become an active member in a class action lawsuit that charged them with reverse discrimination, age discrimination, and retaliation in 1988.)

CITIES 92.9
— A measure that would give $1,000 in monthly guaranteed taxpayer-funded “unrestricted cash” subsidies to certain individuals in Illinois, regardless of immigration status, is being debated in the state legislature. An Illinois Senate appropriations committee Wednesday heard about Senate Bill 3462 from state Sen. Ram Villivalam, D-Chicago. He couldn’t say how much his plan would cost taxpayers. – Greg Bishop
https://www.cities929.com/2024/03/27/legislator-wants-taxpayers-to-fund-statewide-1000-monthly-guaranteed-income/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Mike Buehler, who is the McHenry County Board chairman, couldn’t attend Wednesday’s hearing, but is listed as an opponent of the measure. He said it’s irresponsible to discuss such a program without knowing how much it will cost taxpayers. “My understanding is that you would have to be a person with a child, or caring for someone in your home or in school to be eligible for the benefits. That could be millions of people and the cost could be in the tens of billions of dollars,” Buehler told The Center Square. “And where’s the state going to come up with these funds and the only place to come up with that is to get it from the taxpayers.” Pilot guaranteed income programs in Chicago and the Metro East St. Louis areas are ongoing, costing taxpayers millions.)

— U.N. Chief Demands Slavery Reparations After ‘Generations of Discrimination’ – SIMON KENT (COMMENT: Are you White, male, older, non-poor, Protestant, and/or German American? How long have your ancestors been in America? From what I see, under the Democrats and under the RINOs, the more of the aforesaid that you are and the longer that your ancestors have been in America, the more reparations that Democrats and RINOs are going to make you pay. I am all of the aforesaid and my ancestors have been in America since 1844. In my defense, they have always lived in northeast Illinois, were never in a position to discriminate against anyone, and never did discriminate against anyone. In my defense, I have paid lots of reparations already and I continue to pay lots of reparations. Affirmative Action (AA) and DEI are reparations. My Democrat superiors in the federal government used AA and DEI to give promotions that I should have gotten to my Democrat coworkers who were minority, female, younger, had less money than I did, non-Protestant, and/or non-German American. They all had less work experience than I had, had less education than I had, had no professional certifications or fewer than I had, and/or had no professional license like the one I had. In 1997, when I was 49 years old, they forced me to take their early retirement “offer” and gave my job and my preferred corner office to my Black subordinate.)

— Retired grandmother still owes $108,000 in student debt 40 years after taking out loan. – Mike Lowe (COMMENT: Did you take out a student loan? I did not even try because I would not have gotten one. I only just barely made it into the upper 20% of my high school class and my ACT score was only 24. Further, I was not viewed as being college material. Neither of my parents had attended college. My father was only the first of my ancestors to earn a high school diploma. My mother never attended high school. I could not run because I had a bone disease. My eyesight could not be corrected to 20/20. I had partial red/green color blindness. I demonstrated no leadership potential because I was a part-time dishwasher during my junior and senior years in high school and a full-time dishwasher during the summer in between. So because of the aforesaid and because my parents lacked money, I worked my way through college. But because I worked too many hours, my GPA suffered. I would not have been able to graduate debt-free from NIU with a bachelor’s degree in management in 1970 if I had not worked all the part-time hours that I could for the Park Forest Post Office 1966-1969 and if my parents had not provided me with room and board while I completed courses at UIC 1966-1968, weekends during my first semester at NIU in 1969, and the summer of 1969. I acknowledge that I would not have had to work so many hours washing dishes and delivering mail if I had not used what I earned to buy a new cars in 1966, 1967, and 1968, but I used those cars to get to/from work and classes.)
https://www.kron4.com/news/national/retired-grandmother-still-owes-108000-in-student-debt-40-years-after-taking-out-loan/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: In 1986, Nancy Peter took out a student loan to finish her psychology degree at Mundelein College in Chicago. Almost four decades later, she’s still paying it back. “The interest compounds and compounds, so every penny I don’t pay, it goes sky high,” she said. Peter took out another loan to go to graduate school at Loyola University and has worked as a therapist for nearly 40 years. But the now 71-year-old retired grandmother of two owes six-figures, more than triple the initial amount of money she borrowed. . .According to the U.S. Department of Education, 43 million Americans owe a collective $1.3 trillion in student loan debt. The average borrower owes $37,000. “This will sound terrible,” Peter said. “But I have a paper of different ways you can have your loan forgiven, and the only one I fit into was I would have to die.” Last year, the U.S. Supreme Court struck down the Biden administration’s plan to forgive hundreds of billions of dollars in student loan debt.)

https://nypost.com/2024/03/26/opinion/ev-pushing-joe-biden-knows-gas-powered-cars-are-still-tops/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: One of Joe Biden’s notable digressions when getting deposed by special counsel Robert Hur was about driving his beloved 1967 Corvette Stingray convertible. Which wasn’t surprising — the president genuinely loves his car. And why not? It’s a thing of beauty and, for its time, was a splendid feat of engineering. A paradox of the Biden administration is that the old-school car enthusiast is — in the name of the future and saving the planet — waging a war on the internal-combustion-engine cars that he so admires and that have helped define American life over the last 100 years. The internal-combustion-engine automobile ranks as one of the modern world’s most transformative innovations. Prior to the advent of trains, travel by land was an absolute misery, even for the wealthy and privileged. Then the car, in effect, took the train and put it in the hands of individuals. It was a revolutionary leap ahead for personal freedom and mobility. It changed where we live (catalyzing the growth of the suburbs) and how we work (making it easier to commute). It obviously made it possible to go more places and gave rise to new types of business catering to a newly footloose population, including motels and fast-food restaurants. It knit the country together via a road network that facilitated untold economic activity and created the auto-manufacturing industry, as well as industries providing parts and fuel for cars. To an unusual extent, people feel bonded to their cars. There are car enthusiasts but not enthusiasts for other 20th-century implements that changed our way of life. No one speaks wistfully of the refrigerator they owned 40 years ago or reads fan magazines devoted to plumbing. Even for consumers who aren’t car devotees, what to buy is an intensely personal decision; this is why there is a dizzying array of brands offering an immense range of choices. The Biden administration’s push to get people into electric vehicles is running directly into the chief advantage of internal-combustion-engine cars, which is the sheer convenience. People don’t really have “range anxiety,” the fear their electric vehicle will run out of its charge. Electric cars have acquired more range now, and most people aren’t driving 300 miles in a single trip, regardless. No, it’s the time it takes to charge an electric car compared with the ease of a trip to the gas station that is the issue. Gas stations already exist (about 145,000 of them with a million gas pumps), and no one had to subsidize their creation. They are convenient and cost-effective and make economic sense. Making charging stations available on a comparable scale will present formidable obstacles. As Mark Mills of the National Center for Energy Analytics points out in a paper on electric cars, transporting the large amounts of energy at the necessary scale using electric energy via wires and transformers is much more expensive than doing it with oil via pipelines and tanks. Installing the superchargers necessary to make charging somewhat rapid — but still slower than gassing up — will require “a grid power demand comparable to a small town or steel mill.” This isn’t to say electric cars aren’t attractive to some consumers, especially those with their own garages for overnight charging and the resources to spend on a fun, interesting second or third car. Tesla has made major inroads in the upscale category. Good for it. More choice is better. An all-electric-car future is very far off, though, and internal-combustion-engine automobiles aren’t embarrassing artifacts of the past. Their cost, convenience, reliability, and size — more than half of automobiles sold in America are SUVs — make them hugely appealing. They are also getting constant upgrades. According to Mills, since 1975, “the average automobile today has 100 more horsepower, weighs 1,000 pounds more, and has doubled in fuel efficiency.” Joe Biden’s Corvette is now an antique, but the basic technology is as important, and incredibly user-friendly, as ever.)

I faced tremendous opposition mainly because I was a conservative Republican who opposed political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, and age discrimination, but also because I did not help GAO meet any of its Affirmative Action quotas and because I did not start my career with GAO like almost all of them did and because I transferred in with almost 12 years of federal seniority. They were furious when I completed the requirements for a master’s degree in accounting from DePaul in 1980, I passed the Certified Internal Auditor examination on my first attempt in 1981, and I became a licensed CPA in 1981. I had passed the CPA examination on my first attempt in 1979 and I had earned an MBA from Loyola in 1976. GAO audits IRS. I had worked for IRS for almost 9 years, the last 5 1/2 years of which at the GS-12 Step 1-5 Levels, currently $97,079-$110,020/year. They wasted my knowledge of IRS. They did not assign me to audits of IRS for 6 years. But then, after just 3 years, they threw me off audits of IRS.)
