GOPUSA
— The Border Crisis May Be Coming To Your Kids’ School
https://www.gopusa.com/?p=107674
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The media show photos of young migrant children. Don’t fall for that. Three-quarters of these unaccompanied minors are young men ages 15 to 17. Think tattoos, not teddy bears. These teens are carrying the name and phone number of a relative in the U.S. who will sponsor them. A few weeks after surrendering to border officials, they’ll board buses to Los Angeles, Houston or New York City — the three most frequent destinations — or elsewhere in the U.S. where their sponsor lives. It’s the beginning of a hard road. The law requires them to go to school. But they’ve endured trauma on their trek and missed months or years of schooling. Few speak English, and many don’t know Spanish, only Mayan. Their education will cost thousands of dollars a year more than for the average student because they’ll need linguistic experts, tutors, psychological counseling, vaccinations and other support. They also consume most of a classroom teacher’s attention, leaving the rest of the class to make do with less. Even so, only 66% of students without English skills ever graduate. They will struggle, but so will our own kids. This migration wave is hitting schools just as they’re reopening after the pandemic. Students have missed an entire year of school activities. For school districts with tight budgets, the added costs of educating these young newcomers will mean an end to art classes, band and orchestra, and other enrichment activities.)

AMERICAN GREATNESS
— Yes, President Trump, The Nation Sorely Misses You. As a result of Joe Biden’s policies, in just six weeks, Americans have lost jobs, consumer confidence is down, and tensions in the Middle East are worsening. – Elad Hakim
(DIERSEN: What do you say to those who claim to be religious, conservative, and/or Republican, but who are filled with hatred against Trump? Ever-increasingly, they refuse to give Trump credit for defending and advancing the traditional marriage/family, right to life, immigration, illegal drugs, Second Amendment, and equal opportunity (no race or gender based preference giving) planks in the Republican Party platform. That shows that hate-filled Trump-haters either do not care about the aforesaid planks or that they reject the aforesaid planks.)

LUTHERAN CHURCH CHARITIES
— DIERSEN HEADLINE: According to this article, “resist the temptation to linger in the quicksand of past mistakes.” If you asked your critics/opponents what mistakes you made, what would they say? My critics/opponents would say a) my refusing to be manipulated or dominated by them, b) my refusing to glorify and praise them, c) my refusing to pander to them, d) my refusing to serve as one of their operatives or dupes, e) and/or my refusing to give them money. I should write a book about my critics/opponents who claim to be religious, conservative, and/or Republican and have lots of religious, government, political, and/or financial clout. Everyone sees how they treat me and treat my GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters. Everyone sees how the Illinois Republican Party, DuPage County Republican Central Committee, and Milton Township Republican Organization treat me and treat my GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters. Everyone sees how Illinois, DuPage County, Milton Township, Wheaton, and Wheaton Chamber of Commerce treat me and treat my GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters. Everyone sees how TAPROOT Republicans of Illinois, Illinois Center Right Coalition, and American Association of Political Consultants Midwest Chapter treated me and treated my GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters.)

— Trump Loyalists Spurn ‘Failed Republican Establishment of Yesteryear’ – Elaina Plott and Jonathan Martin
(DIERSEN: Political parties exist to help elect candidates who can and will defend and advance their platform. The Republican Party platform is conservative. Establishment Republicans dominate the Republican Party, Illinois Republican Party, DuPage County Republican Central Committee, Milton Township Republican Organization, etc. Establishment Republicans are anti-conservative. Establishment Republicans reject some, most, if not all the planks in the Republican Party platform, most commonly, its traditional marriage/family, right to life, immigration, illegal drugs, Second Amendment, and/or equal opportunity (no race or gender based preference giving) planks. Establish Republicans look down on, if not despise, if not hate those like me who support the aforesaid planks. Establishment Republicans blame those like me who support the aforesaid planks for all the losses that Republicans have suffered in Illinois, in DuPage County, in Milton Township, and in Wheaton.)

(DIERSEN: Democrats, Libertarians, Greens, Independents, and RINOs a) demonize, denigrate, and condemn Republicans as being rich and b) hint/imply/argue/shout that Republicans are rich because they benefitted from their parents’, from their grandparents’, and from the rest of their ancestors’ discrimination against minorities and against females. Everyone should be required to disclose where their money came from. My money came what I saved doing yard work and delivering newspapers 1962-1964; washing dishes 1964-1966; cleaning golf shoes, chipping slag, and pumping gasoline in 1966; delivering mail 1966-1969; working on an automobile assembly line and as a security guard in 1970; selling d tires, automotive services, and major appliances 1970-1971; pumping gasoline 1971-1972; collecting delinquent taxes 1971-1980; auditing federal agencies 1980-1997; collecting a Civil Service Retirement System pension since 1997, and collecting Social Security since 2010.)

— Remember the Good Old Days? No Need to Feel Ashamed if You Do. Nostalgia can bring comfort and meaning, even inspiration. It’s about the future more than the past. – Clay Routledge
(DIERSEN: When were your Good Old Days? Career-wise, my Good Old Days include 1972, 1973, and 1974 when my GAO mentor promoted me to GS-9 (currently $59,258/year), GS-11 (currently $71,697/year), and GS-12 (currently $85,935/year). But then, my Democrat IRS superiors got rid of my mentor and everything went downhill from there. Career-wise, my Good Old Days include 1986, 1987, and 1988 when my GAO mentor got me assigned to audits of IRS and promoted me to GS-13 (currently $102,188/year). But then, my Democrat GAO superiors got rid of my mentor and everything went downhill from there. My Good Old Days include 1970 when I earned a bachelor’s degree in management from NIU, 1976 when I earned an MBA from Loyola, 1980 when I earned a master’s degree in accounting from DePaul, and 1997 when I earned a master’s degree in financial markets and trading from IIT. My Good Old Days include 1979 when I passed the CPA examination on my first attempt and 1981 when I passed the Certified Internal Auditor examination on my first attempt and became a licensed CPA. My Good Old Days include 1972, 1974, and 1976 when I bought real estate and 1978 and 1984 when my wife and I bought real estate. My Good Old Days include 1966, 1967, 1968, 1971, etc. when I bought news cars and 1989 and 1994 when bought collector cars. My Good Old Days include every day since I got married in 1978.)

Beyond overwhelmingly, Trump-haters are filled with hatred against those who are law enforcement officers, veterans, Trump supporters, conservative, patriotic, Republican, American, White, male, older, heterosexual, married, non-poor, gun owners, Christian, Protestant, Italian American, German American, and/or those whose ancestors have been in America for a long time.

(FROM THE ARTICLE: On Wednesday, Taylor Green gave a floor speech in opposition of the bill and then unsuccessfully tried to adjourn the House to block its movement through the chamber. That prompted Newman, whose new office in Washington’s Longworth House Office Building is directly across the hall from Taylor Greene’s, to display a transgender flag in the hallway. Newman tweeted a video of herself putting up the flag so that Taylor Greene “can look at it every time she opens her door.” That prompted Taylor Greene to post a similar video of herself putting up a sign on the wall across the hall from Newman that reads, “There are TWO genders MALE & FEMALE. ‘Trust the science!’”)

— The missing piece of the minimum wage debate. History shows that boosting the minimum wage leads to consumer spending. – Colleen Doody
(DIERSEN: During the 1960s, if the minimum wage had been $15/hour in today’s dollars, in 1966, I would have bought a new loaded Pontiac GTO to commute to classes at UIC from my parents’ home in Crete, instead of the new Pontiac Tempest Sprint that I bought. I washed dishes for the minimum wage in the basement of the S.S. Kreseges in Chicago Heights during my junior and senior years and the summer in between at Crete-Monee High School.)

WIREPOINTS
— Bias Promoted: Illinois Political Reporter Natasha Korecki Goes To The White House – Mark Glennon
https://wirepoints.org/bias-gets-a-promotion-illinois-political-reporter-natasha-korecki-goes-to-the-white-house-wirepoints/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: It’s emblematic of what’s been happening in the national press. Natasha Korecki was promoted last week to White House correspondent for Politico. Until 2018, she covered Illinois government for the Chicago Sun-Times and later Politico’s Illinois operation. During her years covering Illinois politics we consistently singled her out as the most overtly biased and deceitful reporters in the state. Most of the Illinois media, at the time, was far more biased than today, though problems remain. In the meantime, most of the national media descended into something often far more sinister than bias, routinely ignoring and distorting news that doesn’t fit its political narrative. Korecki’s worst was directed at Bruce Rauner during his campaign and term as governor. It’s not like criticizing Rauner couldn’t have been accomplished with accurate reporting and fair commentary. We, too, quickly soured on him and our criticism was harsh. But Korecki showed little interest in facts and fairness.)

OK, but several years ago, when many thousands of “social justice warriors” (i.e., union thugs) stormed past the police and occupied the domed Capital building in Madison for days, the media celebrated.)

— ‘Many options’: Democrats eye 14th Amendment as impeachment alternative. Tim Kaine doubts enough Republicans would vote to convict, suggests another path to banish Trump. – David Sherfinski and Stephen Dinan
(DIERSEN: What ways are the Democrats, Libertarians, Greens, Independents, and RINOs in your municipality, in your township, in your county, in Illinois, in America, and in the world considering to banish Trump supporters? Will they officially stop Trump supporters a) from seeking or holding government and political offices, b) from getting an education, c) from getting jobs, d) from owning firearms and ammunition, e) from owning vehicles, f) from owning real estate, e) etc.? How soon will hate-filled Trump-hating Trump-haters succeed in sending Trump supporters to concentration camps?)

WASHINGTON FREE BEACON
— Biden LGBT Rights Order Charges Into Culture War – Kevin Daley
https://freebeacon.com/courts/biden-lgbt-rights-order-charges-into-culture-war/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Biden’s directive broaches almost every aspect of domestic policy, from housing to refugee resettlement to transgender student athletes. The order requires every federal agency to make clear that civil rights laws banning sex discrimination also ban discrimination based on sexual orientation or gender identity, citing the Supreme Court’s landmark gay rights ruling in June 2020. Many changes resulting from Biden’s order, like a ban on anti-gay discrimination in renting, are unlikely to cause controversy. Other mandates will accelerate long-simmering cultural disputes, like those allowing trans students to participate in women’s sports or use the bathrooms and locker rooms of their choice. While Biden says his focus is fixed on the coronavirus pandemic and economic stimulus, cultural conflict is poised to play a defining role in the coming years of his presidency.)

My Democrat GAO superiors forced me to retire in 1997 when I was 49 years old, gave me unfair performance expectations and appraisals, always ranked me in the bottom half of my coworkers for pay-for-performance purposes, did not promote me beyond GS-13, got rid of my mentor in 1987, kept me off audits of IRS for all but 3 of the almost 18 years that I worked for GAO, and forced me to take 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.

TOWNHALL
— Sorry, But That’s the Rule: President Asterisk Is A Draft Dodger – Kurt Schlichter
(DIERSEN: What have your critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes used against you the most? Mine have stressed since 1966 a) that I was 1-A, b) that I got student draft deferments 1966-1970 and a financial hardship draft deferment 1970-1971, and c) that I never enlisted. I should write a book about critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes who used the aforesaid against me the most. I would focus on my superiors, supervisors, coworkers, and subordinates at the Park Forest Post Office 1966-1969, Firestone Stores 1970-1972, IRS 1971-1980, and GAO 1980-1997. To this day, my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes shout at veterans, and at everyone else, that I am a draft dodger.)
https://townhall.com/columnists/kurtschlichter/2021/01/25/sorry-but-thats-the-rule-president-asterisk-is-a-draft-dodger-n2583602
(FROM THE ARTICLE: I sure think these New Rules are dumb, but what can you do? In fact, I have always hated the whole chickenhawk thing, the idea that, rather than military service being a character resume plus, its absence is a minus and some sort of character flaw. Only about 30% of people can qualify physically and otherwise for service, so right off you are consigning about 70% of folks to some sort of second-hand moral status. That’s stupid. Further, the idea that an American citizen who did not serve has some sort of disqualification from opining on military issues is utterly unAmerican. . .This was demonstrated with the whole “Cadet Bone Spurs” thing about Donald Trump. The “cadet” part relates to him having gone to military school, which I guess the New Rules decree is something to be ashamed of now. As with shifting attitude toward the National Guard troops from violent threats to the literal safety of oppressed people to heroic defenders of the country from Thor-wannabes to tiresome eyesores to be consigned to a Congressional parking garage, you need constant updates on whether military stuff is good or bad at any given moment. Anyway, the “Bone Spurs” part was the medical diagnosis that kept Trump from draft eligibility. For some reason, this diagnosis strikes people who have never had to do a long ruck march over rough terrain with half their body weight on their backs as hilarious. . .Trump got four student deferments as an undergrad. Then the Army – not anyone else – decided he as not physically fit for military service. No shock – go to a MEPS (Military Entrance Processing Station), tell the doc you have bone spurs on your paws, and see how fast you get transferred back to Fort Living Room. . .And here’s another thing, and maybe I’m a bit technical, but Trump was never drafted. So, it’s kind of hard to “dodge the draft” when you weren’t drafted. Draft dodgers typically got their induction notices and split to Manitoba. That was draft dodging – and St. Jimmy Carter pardoned them all, so it’s weird that draft dodging is now bad again. Regardless, the New Rules are the New Rules and I am helpless to alter them. * is just as much of a draft dodger as the Bad Orange Man. The Asterisk-In-Chief got five student deferments as an undergrad. Then the Army apparently decided that he had a history of asthma and that was that. Putting aside that he’s more known for gaffes and wandering about aimlessly than coughing fits, President * was disqualified, just as a huge percentage of potential recruits are. And like Trump, he was never drafted, making it hard in any but the most meta way to fairly consider him a “draft dodger.” But none of that matters because of the New Rules. The New Rules decree that * is a cowardly draft dodger unfit to hold the office of president, so there you are. Sorry.)

Since 2005, my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes have demonized me, denigrated, me, and condemned me as being like Jeff Gannon. Since 2005, they have viciously used against me what happened with GOPUSA, Talon News, and White House Correspondent Jeff Gannon. SEE: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talon_News They paint me as being a clone of Jeff Gannon and even worse things. Ever since I became a GOPUSA reporter in 2000, my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes have hinted/implied/argued/shouted that I ask bad questions at press conferences and share privileged information with reporters that have caused Republican candidates to be defeated and even worse things. Of course, I should sue my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes. But if not that, I should write a book about activists, candidates, elected officials, and party leaders in Illinois who claim to be religious, conservative, and/or Republican, but a) who do NOT want me to know about their press conferences, b) who do NOT want me to attend their press conferences, c) who do NOT want me to ask questions during their press conferences, d) who do NOT want me to speak with other reporters, e) who have barred me from attending their press conferences, f) who have had me thrown out of their press conferences, and/or g) who do not want me to report on their press conferences.)

(DIERSEN: Which hate-filled Trump-hating Democrats, Libertarians, Greens, Independents, and RINOs will lead efforts a) to deprogram Trump supporters in your municipality, in your township, in your county, and in Illinois and b) to deprogram Trump supporters in your Republican township/ward/county party organizations and in the Illinois Republican Party?)

(DIERSEN: How soon, if not already, will your municipality, your township, your county, Illinois, America, and the world officially banish all individuals, organizations, companies, governments, and countries that do not promote LGBTQ+? I should write a book about what Wheaton, Milton Township, DuPage County, Illinois, America, and the world have done already to banish individuals, organizations, companies, governments, and countries that do not promote LGBTQ+. I should write a book about what the Milton Township Republican Organization, DuPage County Republican Central Committee, and Illinois Republican Party have done to banish those who do not promote LGBTQ+.)

— Trump Leaves Washington the Way He Entered—as a Political Outsider. President departed with ties to Republican leaders strained and his political prospects unclear. – Andrew Restuccia and Rebecca Ballhaus
(DIERSEN: The more planks in the Republican Party platform that you support, the more that Republican leaders treat you as a political outsider. I should write a book about the planks in the Republican Party platform that leaders of the Milton Township Republican Organization, DuPage County Republican Central Committee, and Illinois Republican Party have rejected since 2000. Most commonly, they reject the traditional marriage/family, right to life, immigration, illegal drugs, Second Amendment, and/or equal opportunity (no race or gender based preference giving) planks.)
