Legislators are combating age discrimination, including a recent proposal called the Protecting Older Workers Against Discrimination Act, and companies are under fire for certain hiring practices, such as targeting younger applicants through social media. Older workers are stereotyped as lacking a strong work ethic, counting down the days to retirement and a disinterest in learning new skills to stay competitive in the workforce, and they also struggle with negative comments about their age from colleagues or are overlooked for promotions.)DAILY BEAST

CHICAGO SUN-TIMES
— Rahm ‘would welcome’ migrants Trump considers releasing to sanctuary cities
– AP (DIERSEN: Needless-to-say, to “welcome” illegals is to illegally
encourage illegal immigration. Chicago Democrats have illegally done everything
that they can to get citizens of foreign countries to illegally come to America
illegally and to illegally stay in America illegally. If Trump sent 10,000,
50,000, 100,000, 500,000, 1,000,000+ illegals to Chicago, what would Chicago
Democrats do with them? I predict that those Chicago Democrats would soon
spread those illegals that they do not want across Illinois. How many unwanted illegals
would those Chicago Democrats send to your county, to your township, to your
municipality, to your precinct, and to your neighborhood? Of course, if they have
not done so already, the Democrats who run Illinois will give illegals the
right to vote. With votes from illegals, the Democrats who run Illinois will
get rid of even faster individuals, organizations, companies, and governments that
are Trump supporters, Protestant, conservative, patriotic, Republican,
American, White, male, older, rich, gun owners, German American, draft
avoiders, and those whose ancestors have been in America for a long
time.)
https://chicago.suntimes.com/news/donald-trump-releasing-detained-immigrants-ice-sanctuary-cities/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Mayor
Rahm Emanuel said Chicago would “welcome these migrants with open arms,” in
response. “What President Trump fails to understand is that America is a
sanctuary country,” Emanuel said. “Small, medium and large cities across the
nation are suddenly and rapidly identifying as sanctuary cities because of the
abandonment of Americans values, ideals and cultural destiny under President
Trump’s watch.” The plan was panned by critics as an effort to use migrants as
pawns to go after political opponents. Democratic House Speaker Nancy Pelosi
calls the plan “disrespectful.”)

and a financial hardship draft deferment 1970-1971 has had “serious,
long-term consequences” for me. While I worked for the federal government
1966-1969 and 1980-1997, my Democrat superiors, Democrat supervisors, Democrat
coworkers, and Democrat subordinates stressed to my superiors, supervisors,
coworkers, and subordinates, especially to those who were veterans, that I had
avoided the draft. They stressed that WHILE MY PEERS WERE DYING IN VIETNAM, a)
I bought a new 1968 Oldsmobile 442 in 1967, a new 1969 Dodge Charger SE in 1968,
and a new 1972 Corvette in 1971; b) I bought a new town home in 1972; and c) I
earned a bachelor’s degree in management in 1970 and then took graduate
business courses. Since 1966, they have hinted/implied/argued/shouted that
because I avoided the draft, I have had TREMENDOUS UNFAIR ADVANTAGES IN

hint/imply/argue/shout that the longer that your ancestors have been in
America, the more that you should pay in reparations, and especially if you are
a Trump supporter, Protestant, conservative, patriotic, Republican, American,
White, male, older, non-poor, gun owner, German American, and/or a draft
avoider. How much in reparations will the Democrats want you to pay?)
http://www.wlsam.com/news/some-georgetown-students-want-to-pay-reparations-to-the-descendants-of-the-slaves-who-made-the-school-possible/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: A
group known as the GU272 Advocacy Team has pushed through student government a
bill that would create a new $27.20 fee every semester for all Georgetown
undergraduates. The fee would go toward a reconciliation fund, which would be
overseen by a board of students and descendants of the 272 slaves sold in 1838.
They estimate the fund would generate more than $400,000 a year and would “be
allocated for charitable purposes directly benefiting the descendants of the
GU272 and other persons once enslaved by the Maryland Jesuits,” according to
the bill.)

— DISGUSTING, TRAGIC: How much will legal pot smokers consume?
https://www.daily-journal.com/opinion/editorials/how-much-will-legal-pot-smokers-consume/article_4a71056a-56d4-11e9-972d-b74dc440f805.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: As
Illinois seems to creep toward full legalization of marijuana, it might be
useful to consider some of the experiences of states where it already has been
legalized. Washington and Colorado legalized recreational use in 2012. Oregon
followed suit in 2014. A marketing firm, DHM Research, surveyed users in those
three states. The results were reported in a national story, which ran earlier
in The Daily Journal. Here’s what to expect: • If marijuana is legalized, use
will increase. Those who use will up their consumption, in some cases moving
from weekend recreation to every day. Some 44 percent of the legal consumers
will use marijuana every day. • It is a male thing. Sixty percent of the users
are men. If you have concerns about the growing inequity of men moving on to
and graduating from college, this might give you pause. • Finally, and most
disturbing, about one in every four users will go to work high or get high at
work. We only can hope these people are not driving trucks, flying airplanes or
designing bridges. There is a solid social trend toward legalization.
Historically, society rotates those social ills it forgives and those it punishes
severely. States, too, greedily eye the taxes they might collect to feed their
bureaucracies. As we legalize, we also must regulate with common sense. There
might be, perhaps, no penalty at all for smoking marijuana in your home. Yet if
you choose to, say, jeopardize someone else’s life by being irresponsible, jail
time would be more than appropriate.)

— Why Are 2020 Democrats Embracing Slavery Reparations? – MATT MARGOLIS
(DIERSEN: The Democrats who run the federal government use Affirmative Action
(AA), Diversity, Inclusion, up-or-out, early retirement, etc. to get rid of
their employees who are Republican, White, male, and/or non-veteran who they
did not promote to GS-13 (currently $98,198) by age 25, GS-14 (currently
$116,040) by age 30, GS-15 (currently $136,495) by age 35, and Senior Executive
Service (SES) (currently $165,500) by age 40. AA is reparations. Who has paid
the price of AA? Few, if any, of my critics/opponents, their operative, or
their dupes have paid the price of AA in any significant way. If I had been a
minority or a female, the federal government would have promoted me into its
SES long before I was 40 years old. However, because I am White, male,
non-veteran, someone who complained about political affiliation discrimination,
reverse discrimination, and age discrimination, and someone who became an
active member in a class action lawsuit that charged them with reverse
discrimination, age discrimination, and retaliation, they took many adverse
actions against me including forcing me to take their early retirement
“offer” in 1997 when I was 49 years old.)
https://pjmedia.com/trending/why-are-2020-democrats-embracing-slavery-reparations/
(FROM THE ARTICLE:
Spoiler alert, Senator Booker: It won’t solve any problems. It won’t satisfy anyone.
What exactly do proponents of slavery reparations believe that they will do
that affirmative action policies in education, employment, awarding of
government contracts, etc., etc. couldn’t? If the election of Barack Obama to
the highest office in the land (despite his radicalism and lack of
qualifications) wasn’t proof that we, as a nation, have moved far beyond the
days of slavery, then what will? A check? For how much? Will we finally be able
to put an end to affirmative action policies? Of course not, that’s not the
point.)

“to discredit, even destroy” me. They include a) past and present
Milton Township Republican Central Committee, DuPage County Republican Central
Committee, Illinois Republican Party, TAPROOT Republicans of Illinois, Wheaton

https://www.washingtonpost.com/outlook/2019/04/08/how-paranoia-about-deep-state-brought-down-president/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: In
the Nixon White House, ruminating about the threat of a deep state was common
fodder. President Richard Nixon’s team sought to discredit, even destroy,
political opponents, inside government and out, by pursuing them as un-American
traitors. Nixon’s deep-statism illustrated the self-destructiveness
undergirding conspiracism, and ultimately led to his resignation.)

— No, you don’t need 20 percent. How Chicago millennials are buying first
homes with down payment programs. – Joanne Cleaver (DIERSEN: Where did the
money for your down payment(s) come from? For the new town home that I bought
in 1972 when I was 24 years old in University Park, it came from my IRS and
Firestone Stores salaries. For the condos that I bought in 1974 and 1976 in the
Outer Drive East building in Chicago, it came from my IRS salary. For the home
that my wife and I bought in Wheaton in 1978, it came from my IRS salary and
her U.S. League of Savings Institutions and FBI salaries. For the new home that
we had built in Wheaton in 1984, it came from my IRS salary and her U.S. League
of Savings Institutions salaries.)

— Does where you go to college really matter? We asked 10 Chicago CEOs. –
Chicago Tribune staff (DIERSEN: I should write a book about my
critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes who hint/imply/argue/shout
a) that college degrees are worthless unless they are from Ivy League
universities and b) that therefore, my 1997 graduate degree in financial
markets and trading from IIT is worthless, my 1980 graduate degree in
accounting from DePaul is worthless, my 1976 graduate degree in business from
Loyola is worthless, and my 1970 undergraduate degree in management from NIU is
worthless.)

— Trump says Dems have let anti-Semitism ‘take root’ in their party – Adam
Shaw (DIERSEN: One could argue that Republicans have let anti-conservativism
“take root” in the Republican Party. I should write a book about
anti-conservative Republican activists, candidates, elected officials, party
leaders, major donors, political consultants, etc. in Wheaton, Glen Ellyn,
Milton Township, DuPage County, and Illinois. They a) reject planks in the
Republican Party platform and/or the Illinois Republican Party platform and
work against those like me who support those planks, b) reject the Milton
Township Republican Central Committee resolution against video gambling and
work against those like me who support that resolution, c) focus on destroying
those like me who they cannot manipulate/dominate, d) were defendants in
lawsuits that I have filed, and/or e) are operatives or dupes for the
aforesaid.)

— Church of Sweden LGBTQ kids’ guide: Jesus queer – Michael F. Haverluck
(DIERSEN: What if I had successfully claimed Swedish ancestry? During the 1840s
and 1850s, all my ancestors immigrated to northeast Illinois from what is now
Germany. Of course, needless-to-say, my critics/opponents, their operatives,
and their dupes have always used that against me. In my defense, I stress that
my grandfather on my father’s side fought the Germans during WWI, that my
uncles on my mother’s side fought the Germans during WWII, and that my father
would have fought the Germans during WWII if he had not been 4-F. Further,
according to http://dna.ancestry.com, my ancestry is 33% Europe West, 28% Scandinavia,
24% Great Britain, 11% Ireland, 2% Europe East, 1% Finland/Northwest Russia,
and 1% Italy/Greece. Again, what if I had successfully claimed Swedish
ancestry?)

What if further study of “root causes” of illegal immigration finds
a) that citizens of foreign countries come to America because Democrats give
them preference over citizens of America, b) that minorities come to America
because Democrats give them preference over Whites, c) that women come to
America because Democrats give them preference over men, d) that younger people
come to America because Democrats give them preference over older people, e)
that poor come to America because Democrats give them preference over non-poor
people, and f) that Catholics come to America because Democrats give them
preference over Protestants?)

— Schiff: Trump’s presidency will ‘cement’ relationship between Dems, Jewish
community – KYLE BALLUCK (DIERSEN: I should write a book about the many times
that my Democrat superiors in the federal government got my Democrat Jewish
supervisors to take adverse actions against me. My Democrat superiors stressed
a) that I have always been a Republican, b) that I am 100% German nation
origin, and c) that I had been baptized, raised, and confirmed as a Missouri
Synod Lutheran. I should write a book about how the Democrats who ran Money
Magazine got their Jewish employees and their Jewish advisors a) to paint my
education deductions as being improper and b) to foist negative government
employee stereotypes on me in Money Magazine’s 4-page February 1978 article on me.)
