— Democrats crow that “In Chicago visit, Jill Biden calls union workers backbone of this country.” I was a union member while I worked for the Post Office 1966-1969 and for IRS 1971-1980. While I was a union member, my salary increased from $18.05/hour to $104,583/year in today’s dollars. My critics/opponents are vehemently anti-union. Since 1966, when I was 18 years old, they have viciously demonized me, viciously denigrated me, and viciously condemned me as being grossly overpaid. In Money Magazine’s February 1978 4-page article on me, it viciously demonized me, denigrated me, and condemned me as being overpaid. In my defense, a) I earned a bachelor’s degree in management from NIU in 1970, b) I earned an MBA from Loyola in 1976, c) I passed the CPA examination on my first attempt in 1979, d) earned a master’s degree in accounting from DePaul in 1980, e) I passed the Certified Internal Auditor examination on my first attempt in 1981, and f) I became a licensed CPA in 1981. Since 1980, my critics/opponents have stressed that my Democrat GAO superiors forced me to suffer a $21,863/year (21%) pay cut in today’s dollars to transfer from IRS to GAO in 1980. But my Democrat GAO superiors would not have done that if I had been a Democrat, minority, females, and/or veteran.)

However, I am ever-increasingly reluctant to support candidates in Republican primary elections. Far too many of them and their political consultants, pollsters, fundraisers, major donors, campaign managers, campaign staff members, campaign volunteers, and supporters blame me and blame my GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters for their defeats.)
https://mchenrycountyblog.com/2023/08/30/illinois-presidential-poll/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: 53% of Republicans support Donald Trump. . .The poll drilled down a level further, asking Republicans and Democrats who they would support if Trump and Biden were not in the running. For Republicans, 26% would nominate Ron DeSantis, followed by Vivek Ramaswamy (16%), Mike Pence (10%) and Nikki Haley (10%).)

— These are the salaries single people need to survive in every state – Adriana Diaz (COMMENT: The salary is $63,930 for Illinois. I got married in 1978. In today’s dollars, while I was single and working for IRS 1971-1978, my salary increased from $52,022 in 1971 when I was 22 to $63,633 in 1972, to $76,990 in 1973, to $92,279 in 1974, and to $101,507 in 1978. I earned a bachelor’s degree in management from NIU in 1970 and an MBA from Loyola in 1976. The aforesaid salaries enabled me a) to buy a new 1972 Corvette in 1971, b) to pay for tuition and books for graduate business courses at Loyola 1972-1976, c) to buy a new town home in University Park in 1972, d) to buy a new Dodge Dart in 1973, e) to buy a studio condo in the Loop in 1974, f) to pay for tuition and books for graduate accounting courses at DePaul 1976-1978, and g) to buy a one bedroom condo in the Loop in 1976.

— Orland Park Stephen Pastor indicted with Trump in Georgia released on bail with help of conservative group – Ryan Foley
https://www.christianpost.com/news/pastor-indicted-with-trump-in-georgia-released-on-bail.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Lee’s gratitude on Sunday likely stems from his inclusion on the Living Word prayer list for Aug. 27, which calls for “prayers of guidance and blessing” for the Lee family “as they work for their current struggles, and a prayer of thanksgiving for support.” In an appearance on “Diamond & Silk: The Podcast” Thursday, Lee’s attorney, David Shestokas, told the conservative influencer known as Silk that his client was due to report to jail the following day. He noted that if convicted, Lee faces a mandatory minimum of five years in prison. After detailing how Fulton County had set Lee’s bond at $75,000, with the defendant expected to pay 10% upfront, Shestokas reported that the conservative advocacy organization Illinois Family Institute set up a defense fund for Lee that had raised almost $4,000. Silk, whose name is Herneitha Richardson, offered to “make a contribution and pay that $3,500,” instructing Shestokas to tell his client “don’t worry” because “Diamond and Silk: Chit Chat Live is going to pay that $3,500 that he needs.” “Once he [pays] that and if he’s found not guilty, will he get that money back?” Silk asked. After Shestokas responded in the affirmative, Silk urged Lee to donate the $3,500 to his church if/when he is found not guilty. The Illinois Family Institute’s efforts to raise money for Lee’s legal defense continue as the organization partners with a honey company called MakeHoneyGreatAgain.com, which has committed to donating “a significant portion of the proceeds from their honey sales” to Lee’s defense. In his conversation with Silk, Shestokas said Lee served as a chaplain to the New York Police Department and New York firefighters after 9/11. He also ministered to Hurricanes Katrina and Irma victims, the 2017 mass shooting in Las Vegas, and the 1999 mass shooting at Columbine High School in Littleton, Colorado.)

Because of my early retirement, my Civil Service Retirement System pension has always been dramatically reduced and it always will be dramatically reduced. In today’s dollars, it is a) only 44% of what my GAO salary was in 1997 and b) less than what my IRS salary was in 1972 when I was 23.)
