Darin LaHood as a “former moderate” who “raced to the unreasonable Right” and tied himself to “the most unethical and least transparent president in history.” LaHood still represents parts of Bloomington-Normal, and his father, Ray LaHood, was a famously moderate Republican figure. “Darin LaHood is your quintessential average Republican congressman. And I don’t mean that pejoratively. He’s somebody whose goal is to get re-elected, to represent his district, and to climb that political ladder,” Kinzinger said.)

— Calls for Joe Biden not to run raise an age-old question we all face eventually – Clarence Page (COMMENT: How old were you when you got your last promotion? For me, it was late 1986, when I was 38 years old. My Democrat GAO superiors were furious that I applied for that promotion to GS-13, currently $109,732/year, and they were more furious with the GAO manager who promoted me. He had arranged my transfer from IRS to GAO in 1980 and he had gotten me assigned to audits of IRS in early 1986. They were so furious that they forced him to retire in 1987. They threatened to punish me severely if I ever applied for a promotion again. That prompted me to become an active member in a class action lawsuit that charged them with reverse discrimination, age discrimination, and retaliation in late 1988. Because of that, they threw me off audits of IRS and gave me a very bad job assignment, unfair performance expectations, and an unfair performance appraisal in 1989. They always ranked me in the bottom half of my coworkers for pay-for-performance purposes. They forced me to take their early retirement “offer” in 1997.)

In today’s dollars, my CSRS pension is only 44% of what my salary was in 1997 and less than what my salary was in in 1972.)

— FROM THE ARTICLE: Across six battleground states, Trump leads President Biden 48 percent to 44 percent among registered voters. In the crucial swing states that Biden won last time, Trump is ahead in five — Arizona, Georgia, Michigan, Nevada and Pennsylvania — while Biden leads only in Wisconsin. Biden is losing support from young voters, Hispanic voters, Black voters — constituencies Democrats have depended on for decades to overcome the longstanding Republican advantage among whites. Women voters favor Biden by eight percentage points, 50 percent to 42 percent, but men favor Trump by a far wider 18-point spread: 55 percent to 37 percent. (I guess that’s another definition for the term “manspreading.”) On the economy, voters prefer Trump over Biden by a 22-point margin. And a whopping 71 percent think Biden is too old to be president, as opposed to just 39 percent for Trump. – Gail Collins and Bret Stephens

https://nypost.com/2023/11/04/opinion/mike-johnson-must-advocate-for-a-truly-color-blind-culture/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Congratulations, Speaker Johnson. You were elected by your caucus to push through legislation that would benefit the American people and lift the American spirit. And you should make one of your immediate priorities the passage of a long overdue update to the Civil Rights Act of 1964 that enshrines colorblindness as a core American value. The problem here is simple: Race relations in the US have taken a turn for the worse. Back in 2013, 70% of Americans viewed race relations positively; today, that figure has dropped to a worrisome 42%. What happened? Have Americans truly gotten more racist Not really. The real cause of this shift in sentiment is the well-developed, educrat-enforced narrative known as critical race theory (CRT) which insists that America is an inherently racist society. Indeed, DEI, CRT and woke ideologies implant not merely awareness — but resentful awareness — against America and Americans. Point of fact: our federal government has been the leader in propagating these divisive narratives through its own hiring practices and messaging. At a time when we are living with serious challenges ranging from MS-13 gang-members to Hamas in Gaza, Joe Biden called “white supremacy” the biggest terrorist threat to our nation during a graduation speech at Howard University this past spring. Meanwhile, Kamala Harris explicitly argued for racial preferences through “equity” in every aspect of American life. Liberals would say that minority Americans have become “more aware” of systematic racism and its structures; in other words, “woke.” But awareness doesn’t necessarily result in a spate of anger and division. All signs instead point to a well-funded — and coordinated — effort to promote such division through social-justice groups such as Black Lives Matter, whose 2020 protests resulted in $1-2 billion in property damage claims. Helping #BLM along is the multi-billion DEI industry, which enriched itself from white guilt while producing little in the way of unity or even results. Congress has the power to at least put a damper to this madness via a much-needed update to one of the most important civil rights laws of our time. The Civil Rights Act of 1964 explicitly prevents the state from discriminating based on race. Read at face value, it appears to uphold a critical American principle – equal treatment for all, regardless of skin color. It is supposed to create a more unified society with greater trust and social cohesion. However, over the past 50 years, progressives have twisted the Act’s language to divisive and harmful ends. They’ve helped expand the number and scale of discrimination lawsuits, arguing that the mere existence of disparate outcomes means that discrimination must exist. This has created a bitter, litigious legal environment where everyone is able to accuse each other of racism simply for, say, not hiring enough minorities. Companies scramble to look non-racist by rushing to hire minorities — regardless of qualifications — for fear of lawsuits, harming meritocracy and stoking employee resentment. The purpose of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 should be to establish a more colorblind society where people are judged by the content of their character, not the color of their skin. The Left has severely drifted from that purpose. They have opted to label color blindness as an evil, while guilt-tripping white Americans into viewing minorities as helpless victims. And this ultimately benefits no one. Worse yet, the Left regularly pushes non-discrimination to the opposite extreme – ignoring colorblindness for the sake of blatant reverse racism. For years, I fought against discrimination against Asian Americans at Harvard University – discrimination that occurred, in part, because Harvard wanted to admit members of other minority groups despite their lower grades and standardized testing scores. We took our case all the way to the Supreme Court where we prevailed early this year and ended race-based admissions at America’s elite higher learning institutions. But our work is far from done, and we still need stronger enforcement mechanisms from Congress to hold universities accountable to the Court’s decision. An update to the Civil Rights Act of 1964 would do just that by explicitly stating that it cannot guarantee equal outcomes. It would need to say that discrimination of all forms is wrong, even if the race being discriminated against is white or Asian. It would drop all racial quotas and preferences from government hiring and contracting, as these quotas only serve to feed the victimhood industry. Such an act would not ignore the reality of race. Speaker Johnson, you are the de facto adoptive father of an African-American child. You said that “it’s a reality” that your African-American child faces greater obstacles than your other children. This may be true. But you also rejected the idea that “institutional racism” is the sole cause here, citing his family upbringing, and you explicitly said that “socialism is a dead end” towards solving this and other social ills. Speaker Johnson, a National Colorblindness Amendment would reject racial socialism while encouraging Americans to look at your son and every human far beyond just his skin color. At the same time, your Congress can tackle many of the core issues holding minorities back, namely the decline of the traditional family structure and failure of our education system. Make no mistake, Mr. Speaker: America needs healing — and a National Colorblindness Amendment can help that healing begin. )

— Six Questions GOP Candidates Should Ask NBC Moderators At This Week’s Debate – Aaron Flanigan
https://amac.us/newsline/elections/six-questions-gop-candidates-should-ask-nbc-moderators-at-this-weeks-debate/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Before I answer your question, Mr. Holt, let me ask a question of you. What do you and your network’s corporate leadership say to the millions of voters watching this debate who believe that NBC is a singularly left-wing organization committed to advancing the agenda of the Democrat Party and progressive activist class while turning virtually every political story into an attack on Republican candidates or conservative views? What do you say to conservatives who view you as far more powerful than the Democrat Party and think of you as the real opposition party?)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: After Pritzker signed the ban into law, many promised to not comply including his former gubernatorial challenger turned Illinois Congressional District 12 candidate Darren Bailey. Rep. Brad Halbrook, R-Shelbyville, said Thursday that hundreds of thousands will not abide by the registry order. “It’s up to the governor and the legislature to truly decide if they are prepared to declare war on law-abiding gun owners or not,” he said during the meeting. If that holds true, gun owners would be subject to Class A misdemeanor upon the first offense and Class 3 felony for the second and subsequent offenses per the bill. A Class 3 felony could land those found in violation with up to 10 years in prison.)

Democrats run IRS. In 1971, I was one of the last Republicans who they hired. They offered me a job because I had earned a bachelor’s degree in management from NIU in 1970, because I had passed the Federal Service Entrance Examination in 1970, and because they could not find a qualified Democrat, minority, female, or veteran who would take the job. I accepted IRS’s job offer a) because Firestone Stores had rudely fired me because I had accepted a job offer from Oldsmobile, an offer that Oldsmobile subsequently withdrew saying that it had just agreed to stop hiring Whites to settle an EEOC complaint, b) because I was helping support my mother and brother because my father had died in 1969, and c) because I had worked for the Post Office for almost 3 years and I would get all my seniority and sick leave reinstated. To get rid of me, because I refused to become a Democrat and because I complained about political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, and age discrimination, my Democrat IRS superiors disallowed my travel vouchers in 1974, disallowed my education deductions in 1978, and never promoted me beyond GS-12 even though I earned an MBA from Loyola in 1976 and passed the CPA examination on my first attempt in 1979. They would not have taken the aforesaid adverse actions against me if I had been a Democrat, minority, female, or veteran.

— Antisemitism is on the rise across America–and it’s creeping into the workplace. – JONATHAN A. GREENBLATT AND CLARA HESS (COMMENT: While I worked for GAO’s Chicago office for almost 18 years 1980-1997, at least one of my superiors was always Jewish and often two. During my last 12 years, all of my superiors were Jewish. My Democrat GAO superiors stressed to them that I was conservative, Republican, Lutheran, 100% German American, a Crete resident 1948-1972, and a Wheaton resident since 1978. During those 18 years they took many adverse actions against me. They a) forced me to take a $21,863/year (21%) pay cut in today’s dollars to transfer from IRS to GAO, b) gave me bad job assignments and unfair performance expectations and evaluations. c) assigned me to work for, work with, and supervise their most problematic employees, d) turned my superiors, supervisors, coworkers, and subordinates against me, e) kept me off audits of IRS for all but 3 of those almost 18 years, f) delayed my promotions to GS-11, GS-12, and GS-13 and never promoted me to GS-14, g) always ranked me in the lower half of my coworkers for pay-for-performance purposes, and h) forced me to take their early retirement “offer” in 1997 when I was 49 years old. In my defense, I earned a master’s degree in accounting from DePaul in 1980. I passed the Certified Internal Auditor examination on my first attempt and became a licensed CPA in 1981. I became a Certified Fraud Examiner in 1990, Government Financial Manager in 1994, Financial Services Auditor in 1996, and Forensic Accountant in 1997. I earned a master’s degree in financial markets and trading from IIT in 1997. I should write a book about the aforesaid.)

I did not pass the Certified Internal Auditor examination and become a licensed CPA until I was 32. In retrospect, with benefit of hindsight, I should have majored in accounting at UIC and NIU. I should have earned a master’s degree in accounting much sooner. I should have passed the CPA examination and become a licensed CPA much sooner. When I transferred from IRS to GAO when I was 31, all my Democrat superiors, supervisors, coworkers, and subordinates stressed to me that I was much too old to have a successful GAO career.)

November 3, 2023

Democrat and RINO elected officials ever-increasingly promote more illegal immigration. Sooner or later, illegal immigration will harm everyone in America big time. The lower that your income is, the sooner and more that you will be harmed. Illegal immigration will not slow down, let alone stop, until voters elect Republicans, that is, elect candidates who support the immigration plank in the Republican Party platform and will require E-Verify for all employment.

https://www.axios.com/2023/11/02/democrats-quiet-campaign-succeed-biden-2024-president-election
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Illinois Gov. J.B. Pritzker, Pennsylvania Gov. Josh Shapiro and California Rep. Ro Khanna have traveled to New Hampshire in recent months — and Khanna returned this week to debate GOP presidential candidate Vivek Ramaswamy. . .Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer, California Gov. Gavin Newsom and Pritzker all recently launched national political groups — “Fight Like Hell PAC,” “Campaign for Democracy,” and “Think Big America,” respectively. Newsom’s group has focused on gun safety while Whitmer and Pritzker’s groups have honed in on abortion rights. . .In October, Pritzker, 58, launched Think Big America, a group that’s using his wealth to fund abortion rights ballot measures across the country. Pritzker, a billionaire businessman, personally gave $750,000 and Think Big America gave $250,000 to support Ohio’s Issue 1 amendment, which would enshrine abortion rights in the state’s constitution and is on the ballot in next week’s election. Think Big America also donated $1 million to Nevadans for Reproductive Freedom, which is behind an abortion-rights ballot measure, a Think Big spokesperson told Axios. Pritzker also landed the Democratic convention for Chicago; he and his allies are raising money for it.)

DES MOINES REGISTER
— Test politicians, and surgeons, for competency. That’s better than age limits. A law requiring mandatory physical and mental testing of the president and members of Congress past a certain age would not be age discrimination, per se. – Greg Ganske (COMMENT: Democrats and RINOs use up-or-out to get rid of Republicans. Up-or-out is age discrimination per se. In 1974, when I was 25 years old, my Democrat IRS superiors deemed me to be too old to be promoted to GS-13. However, a) I earned an MBA from Loyola in 1976, b) I passed the CPA examination on my first attempt in 1979, c) I earned a master’s degree in accounting from DePaul in 1980, d) I passed the Certified Internal Auditor examination on my first attempt in 1981, e) I became a licensed CPA in 1981, f) I became a Certified Fraud Examiner in 1990, Government Financial Manager in 1994, Financial Services Auditor in 1996, and Forensic Accountant in 1997, and g) I earned a master’s degree in financial markets and trading from IIT in 1997. While my Democrat GAO superiors did promote me to GS-13 in 1986, they nevertheless forced me to take their early retirement “offer” in 1997 when I was 49 years old. I had not made GS-14 by age 30, GS-15 by age 35, or Senior Executive Service by age 40. My Democrat IRS and GAO superiors enforced up-or-out only for their employees who were Republican, White, male, and/or non-veteran.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: In March 1995, I sat in the House of Representatives listening to 70-year-old Rep. Henry Hyde, an Illinois Republican, give a remarkable speech against term limits. Hyde, a giant of a man at 6-foot-3, 280 pounds, with a shock of white hair, still moved with grace from his Georgetown basketball days. In the 1943 NCAA semifinals, he outplayed DePaul’s 6-foot-10 All-American George Mikan. Hyde argued that multiple terms help elected officials gain institutional knowledge and build relationships needed to be effective in passing legislation. The C-SPAN cameras caught me listening on the floor of the House with a bemused look when he said, “When the dentist bends down over you with the drill whirring, don’t you hope he has done that before? When the neurosurgeon has shaved your head and made the pencil mark on your skull where they’re going to have the incision and he approaches with the electric saw, ask him one question: ‘Are you a careerist?’” Laughter filled the chamber. . .Henry Hyde would say, “just vote the mentally incompetent out!” But this is easier said than done as evidenced by aged politicians who get reelected time and again in safe districts or heavily red or blue states. The voters should at least know if elderly candidates have passed minimal physical and mental competency tests. Hyde died of complications from open heart surgery at the age of 81. His surgeon was probably one of the best, but I wonder if, as his heart surgeon approached with the scalpel, he would have been better served by asking, “Have you passed your competency tests?” instead of, “Are you a careerist?”)

https://www.huffpost.com/entry/adam-kinzinger-still-republican_n_6540e179e4b032ae1c9c986d
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Former Rep. Adam Kinzinger (R-Ill.) said he still considers himself a Republican, but only because “I don’t want to give up on that fight.” He told CNN’s Anderson Cooper on Monday, “This country needs two healthy parties: a healthy Democratic party and a healthy Republican. So I’m not going to give up that title.” He said he had voted Democratic in the 2022 midterms and would do the same in 2024 if it’s a Donald Trump-Joe Biden matchup. “I really believe it’s down to one issue on the ballot,” he said. “Not taxes, not even abortion, nothing. The one issue is: Do you believe in democracy, or do you believe in authoritarianism?” Kinzinger told the Washington Post last year that he voted for Donald Trump in 2020, but he felt “dirty” doing it, and “it’s not something I can square away in my soul fully.” Kinzinger was one of the most prominent critics of the former president in the House Republican conference before he retired from Congress earlier this year. He was one of two Republicans who served on the Jan. 6 committee, and one of ten who voted to impeach Trump for his role in the insurrection. “There’s little to no desire to bridge our differences, and unity is no longer a word we use,” Kinzinger said in 2021 when he announced he would not run for reelection. “It has also become increasingly obvious that in order to break the narrative, I cannot focus on both a reelection to Congress and a broader fight nationwide.”)

— Republican Disarray on the House Speakership Nothing New – Bill Hansmann (COMMENT: GAO works for Congress. I worked for GAO 1980-1997. For more than any one person, GAO works for the Speaker of the House. Democrat Tip O’Neill was the Speaker while I worked for GAO 1980-1987, Democrat Jim Wright 1987-1989, Democrat Tom Foley 1989-1995, and Republican Newt Gingrich 1995-1997. While O’Neill was Speaker, GAO forced me to take a $21,863/year (21%) pay cut in today’s dollars to transfer from IRS to GAO and delayed my promotions to GS-12 and GS-13. While Wright was Speaker, GAO threw me off audits of IRS. While Foley and was Speaker, GAO always ranked me in the bottom half of my coworkers for pay-for-performance (PFP) purposes. While Gingrich was Speaker, GAO always ranked me in the bottom half of my coworkers for PFP purposes and forced me to take their early retirement “offer” in 1997 when I was 49 years old; my Democrat GAO superiors were beyond furious that Gingrich dramatically cut GAO’s budget 1995-1997. Gingrich was the Speaker while my lawsuit against GAO was pending 1998-1999 and Republican Dennis Hastert 1999-2005. My critics/opponents have always used against me that neither Gingrich nor Hastert ever came to my defense. Further, my critics/opponents have used against me that since 1980, with one exception in 1989, my Republican U.S. Representatives and my Republican U.S. Senators have never come to my defense.)

While O’Neill was Speaker, GAO forced me to take a $21,863/year (21%) pay cut in today’s dollars to transfer from IRS to GAO and delayed my promotions to GS-12 and GS-13.

While Gingrich was Speaker, GAO always ranked me in the bottom half of my coworkers for PFP purposes and forced me to take their early retirement “offer” in 1997 when I was 49 years old; my Democrat GAO superiors were beyond furious that Gingrich dramatically cut GAO’s budget 1995-1997.

When I bought a new town home in University Park when I was 24 years old in 1972, it came from what I had earned working for IRS and for Firestone Stores. When I bought a studio condo in downtown Chicago in 1974, it came from want I earned working for IRS. When I bought a one bedroom condo in downtown Chicago in 1976, it came from the proceeds from selling my studio condo. When my wife and I bought 1017 East Harrison in Wheaton in 1978, it came from her savings. When my wife and I had 915 Cove Court in Wheaton built in 1984, it came from the proceeds of selling 1017 East Harrison. When we bought a small unit at Iron Gate Motor Condos in Naperville in late 2020, we paid for it with our savings. When we bought a much larger unit at Iron Gate early this year, we paid for it with proceeds of selling our smaller unit and with money that I inherited in 2022.)

https://wirepoints.org/newsguard-part-of-the-government-media-censorship-complex-promoted-by-chicago-tribune-to-combat-misinformation-wirepoints/
(FRM THE ARTICLE: A report by Media Research Center found showed that NewsGuard has for years rated left-leaning, establishment news sites consistently higher than conservative news sites. I can personally attest to that bias. I subscribed to NewsGuard over recent months to see for myself. Its bias is brazen in its 0 to 100 rankings for credibility, with 100 being best. These rankings may have changed a bit since I unsubscribed, but I, too, saw that left-leaning and establishment sights got far higher rankings than comparable conservative ones. The left’s Axios, for example, which actually tells you what progressive viewpoint you are supposed to think is important in every article, got a perfect 100. Fox got 69.5 but CNN got 80. Radically left Mother Jones got 87.5 but the conservative Federalist got a horrible 12.5. Our local Cook County Record, which is excellent though leans a bit conservative, got a paltry 32. The ridiculously biased and widely ridiculed Politifact got a perfect 100. The list goes on and on.)

— Are America’s CEOs overpaid? Unions are taking aim at the soaring compensation of bosses. (COMMENT: I worked for the federal government for almost 30 years (3-Post Office, 9-IRS, 18-GAO). In today’s dollars, my salary increased from $18.05/hour to $142,650/year. Ever since I started working part-time for the Park Forest Post Office when I was 18 years old in 1966, my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes have demonized me, denigrated me, and condemned me as being grossly overpaid. In my defense, a) I earned a job-related bachelor’s degree in 1970 and job-related master’s degrees in 1976, 1980, and 1997, b) I earned job-related professional certifications in 1979, 1981, 1990, 1994, 1996, and 1997, and c) I earned a job-related professional license in 1981.)
