— The Rise of Partisan Fact-Checkers In today’s mainstream media, objectivity has been replaced by partisan advocacy. – Brian Mark Weber (DIERSEN: The mainstream news media is to the left of GAO. Of course, the mainstream news media would never offer me a job as a fact checker. While I worked for GAO 1980-1997, the last 11 years of which at GS-13 Step 1-10 levels, currently $101,176-$131,532/year, I increasingly worked as a referencer, that is, as a fact checker. That work required assuring the accuracy and support for each and every word, number, table, graph, chart, conclusion, opinion, and recommendation in GAO reports. I worked for IRS 1971-1980, the last 5 1/2 years of which at the GS-12 Step 1-5 levels, currently $85,084-$96,431/year. My other fact checking qualifications include my becoming a Forensic Accountant in 1997, Certified Fraud Examiner in 1990, licensed CPA in 1981, Certified Internal Auditor in 1981, and CPA in 1979.)

— Charges Announced for 17 People After Rockford Protests Over Two Days – MATT KEELEY (DIERSEN: If there have been no Back the Blue rallies in your municipality, why is that? In your municipality, how strong/threatening are the BLMers and LGBTQers, that is, how strong/threatening are the Democrats in your municipality?)
https://www.newsweek.com/charges-announced-17-people-after-illinois-protests-over-two-days-1522193
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Police in Rockford, Illinois announced charges Saturday for 17 people arrested during protests over two straight days. On Friday, 11 protesters were arrested after a small protest blocking East State Street, according to WTVO. Then Saturday, an additional six protesters were arrested during a counterprotest at a “Back the Blue” rally in support of police. Rockford Police Chief Dan O’Shea, Winnebago County Sheriff Gary Caruana, and State’s Attorney Marilyn Hite Ross held a press conference Saturday afternoon announcing the charges. Six of the protesters were charged with mob action alone, while three more were charged with mob action and resisting arrest. Other charges included aggravated battery to a police officer, disorderly conduct, obstruction of police officers, damage to property and resisting a police officer. “The First Amendment is very clear. It does not give unbridled freedom to infringe on the rights of others,” Ross said. Former Democratic State Rep. Litesa Wallace shared a video in which she said she raised about $2,000 from her supporters to pay the bond for six of those arrested on Friday. “I am exhausted—which doesn’t say a lot because I didn’t do a lot today. I can only imagine how tired and exhausted the individuals who were arrested are. And I can only imagine how tired and exhausted people who are older than me are, who have been in this fight and wanting justice and equality for decades upon decades,” she said. . .The Friday protest was over the treatment of protesters during a May 30 demonstration in Rockford responding to the police-involved death of George Floyd in Minneapolis. Protesters alleged that the Rockford Police used excessive force. An internal investigation by police announced Wednesday that it had found no evidence of wrongdoing by the officers. About 20 protesters announced several demands on Friday, including that the city drop all charges against demonstrators involved in the May 30 protest, and that the police hire an outside investigator to determine whether excessive force was used.)

— Arrests made after protesters, police clash following ‘Back the Blue’ rally
https://www.wifr.com/2020/08/01/arrests-made-after-protesters-police-clash-after-back-the-blue-rally/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: At least 100 attendees of a pro-police rally in downtown Rockford were met by anti-police protesters Saturday morning. The groups Concerned Citizens for America of Northern Illinois and the Illinois Family Institute held the rally at the Winnebago County Justice Center, at 650 W. State Street in downtown Rockford. Rep. John Cabello (R-68th) and former Rep. Jim Sacia (R-89th) spoke at the rally which was held to “Support all men and women in law enforcement and the amazing, vital, and dangerous work they do to protect our communities and country from lawlessness and evil.” This comes following a protest on Friday evening, where nine protesters were taken into custody and later charged. However, former Illinois Rep. Litesa Wallace raised money to help bond out those arrested Friday night.)

— Seattle is apparently implementing Maoist training for white employees – Andrea Widburg (DIERSEN: Are you White? Are you a racist?

Ever-increasingly, states, counties, townships, municipalities, organizations, companies, their operatives, and their dupes make it clear to Whites that they will be gotten rid if they do not admit to being racists.)
https://employment.einnews.com/article_detail/523037205/8Hn9_brd4ZLerKXz
(FROM THE ARTICLE: There’s a new Jim Crow afoot in America. Once again, it’s coming from the Democrats, but this time, instead of pitting whites against blacks, it’s pitting blacks against whites. Beleaguered white people technically have the Civil Rights Act of 1964 at their back but, in the witch hunt atmosphere currently prevailing in America, it’s unclear whether they’ll have the courage to use it. The Civil Rights Act of 1964 doesn’t mince words. It exists to outlaw discrimination based upon a person’s race, color, religion, sex, or country of national origin. It explicitly expands these protections to employment programs. Under Title VII, “It shall be an unlawful employment practice for any employer, labor organization, or joint labor-management committee controlling apprenticeship or other training or retraining, including on-the-job training programs to discriminate against any individual because of his race, color, religion, sex, or national origin in admission to, or employment in, any program established to provide apprenticeship or other training. (42 U.S. Code §2000e-2(d).)” The City of Seattle has put a program in place for its 10,000 employees. There are special whites-only aspects of the program. In the “white only” portions of the program, whites must admit that they are racist (and, presumably, any refusal is more proof of racism), and then they must have that racism trained out of them. Christopher Rufo has obtained the materials for the segregated “whites only” training. Trying to summarize the material falls far short of showing the immensity of this Title VII violation, so I’ve embedded all of the tweets below.)

DAILY HERALD
— FRONT PAGE TOP OF FOLD WITH BIG COLOR PICTURE: Mixed views in suburbs, too, about Columbus statue coming down in Chicago – Mari Pyke (DIERSEN: How soon will hate-filled Trump-haters succeed in tearing down statutes of all those who were White, male, older, non-poor, heterosexual, married, conservative, patriotic, Republican, American, gun owners, Christian, German American, and those whose ancestors have been in America for a long time?)
https://www.dailyherald.com/news/20200724/mixed-views-in-suburbs-too-about-columbus-statue-coming-down-in-chicago
(FROM THE ARTICLE: “Columbus wasn’t actually a hero for our people,” said Native American Joseph Standing Bear Schranz, president of the Midwest SOARRING Foundation, based in Lockport. “He didn’t discover America. We were already here.” But for St. Charles businessman Ron Onesti, the statue is a symbol of the hard work and dreams of his forefathers when they arrived in America as immigrants from Italy. “We are obviously deeply saddened not only by what happened (removal of the statues) but the method by which it happened,” said Onesti, president of the Italian American Sports Hall of Fame. “We as a community have worked very hard to keep our heritage alive. By just taking away those statues, you are disrespecting the contributions Italian Americans made to the development of the city and the country.” . . . “I’m very happy it was taken down, and it should have been many years ago,” said Schranz, who is half Ojibwe and half German. “I was never sure why there are statues in his honor. He never did anything very honorable.” . . . Onesti, CEO of The Onesti Entertainment Corp. that manages the Arcada Theatre in St. Charles, said he understood wanting to remove the statues as a short-term solution to stop the violence, “but it’s crucial the Italian American community be involved in discussions about their future.” “We, too, as a culture have been discriminated against and stereotyped,” Onesti said. His grandparents arrived in America with “just a few dollars in their pockets,” he said, and worked hard to create a new life for their children. “We will not let their efforts go by the wayside. You can take our statues, but you can’t take our spirit away.”)

ANSWER: Republicans who are law enforcement officers, Trump supporters, conservative, patriotic, White, male, healthy, older, heterosexual, married, non-poor, gun owners, Christian, German American, draft avoiders, and those whose ancestors have been in America for a long time.)
https://www.dailyherald.com/news/20200723/naperville-planning-for-human-rights-commission
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Marcie Schatz, deputy city manager, said the human rights commission would take up complaints about discrimination in housing or public accommodations based on a person’s status as a member of a protected class. This means it could handle cases that arise because of race, color, natural origin, ancestry, sex, sexual orientation, marital status, order of protection status, pregnancy, religion, age, disability, military status, unfavorable discharge from military service or income.)

https://www.city-journal.org/white-wokeness
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Over the past month, protests against racism have taken place daily in America’s largest cities. They started out as a black movement against police brutality, but they have a different look now. In many cases, whites have taken over. They make conciliatory gestures, apologizing for their “white privilege,” and, in at least one case, washing black people’s feet to expiate themselves of their collective sins. Celebrities, athletes, and corporate America followed suit. Portland’s police chief resigned, asking to be replaced by a black man, and the CEO of Chick-fil-A urged whites to shine the shoes of black people to show a “sense of shame.” Countless others have pledged millions of dollars to end racism. Seeing all this, one wonders: Why now?)
