In 1997, when I was 49 years old, GAO forced me to take its early retirement “offer” and gave my job and my preferred corner office to my Black subordinate.

— Vietnam vets commemorate Chicago’s 1986 ‘Welcome Home’ parade in new book – Jeff Banowetz (COMMENT: Politics is nasty/vicious. During the 1960s, 1970s, 1980s, and 1990s, my Democrat superiors, supervisors, coworkers, subordinates, and others used my avoiding the Vietnam War draft against me big time. I should write a book about that. They hinted/implied/argued/shouted that because I was a Republican, my avoiding the draft proved that I was a hypocrite, a coward, and even worse things. They stressed that because I avoided the draft, I was unfairly able to a) buy a new 1968 Oldsmobile 442 in 1967, b) buy an new Dodge Charger SE in 1968, c) graduate debt-free from NIU in 1970 owning that Charger, d) buy a new Corvette in 1971, e) buy a new town home in 1972, f) buy a studio condo in downtown Chicago in 1974, f) earn an MBA from Loyola in 1976, g) buy a buy a one bedroom condo in downtown Chicago in 1976, h) get married in 1978, i) buy a home in Wheaton with my wife in 1978, j) buy a new 1978 Oldsmobile Delta 88 Royale and a new 1978 Chevette in 1978, k) pass the CPA examination on my first attempt in 1979, l) earn a master’s degree in accounting from DePaul in 1980, m) pass the Certified Internal Auditor examination on my first attempt in 1981, n) become a licensed CPA in 1981, o) etc.)

— For interim Chicago police Superintendent Fred Waller, stepping in to help new mayor pays off in salary-pension double dip – Sam Charles and John Byrne (COMMENT: Since 1966, when I was 18 years old and started working part-time for the Park Forest Post Office, my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes have been furious that I got full-time credit toward my Civil Service Retirement System (CSRS) pension for the almost 3 years that I worked for the Post Office even though I worked only part-time. The Democrat GAO manager who led the Democrat effort to waste my GAO career and to force me into early retirement crowed that he succeeded in getting Congress to end that retirement benefit. Now, if you work part-time, your CSRS credit is prorated based on the hours that you worked. I worked only about 860 hours during those 34 months, but I got credit for working 1,380 hours.)
https://www.chicagotribune.com/news/criminal-justice/ct-waller-salary-pension-20230731-j3ggrrax3jhvjgi5qgopj6nipa-story.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: A Tribune analysis found that Waller, who retired in 2020 after 34 years with the department, will be paid more than $82,000 for helming the CPD in the early months of the Johnson administration. That figure is a combination of Waller’s prorated city salary — $260,004, the same as former Superintendent David Brown’s — and his monthly pension payments of more than $12,000 that kicked in upon his original exit from CPD. Waller, Johnson’s office and the Chicago police all declined to provide comment for this story. Pension payments are 75% of the average salary during the officer’s final four years before retirement. Waller, 61, was paid $185,364 per year when he retired in August 2020, according to records from the city’s Department of Human Resources.)

https://chicago.suntimes.com/2023/7/31/23781608/2023-2024-school-year-new-education-laws-chicago-public-schools-illinois
— Democrats say “College-bound Chicago students receive trunks stocked with laptops, backpacks.” Gabrielle Allen puts me to shame. She worked two jobs (Pizza Hut and Harold’s Chicken) during her junior and senior years while I only worked one (S.S. Kresge). I only just barely made into the upper 20% of my high school class and my ACT score was only 24. My critics/opponents stress that I had tremendous unfair advantages. I was White, male, and my parents had sent me to Missouri Synod Lutheran grade schools.

— Everything Is Bigger In Texas, Including This Sprawling Migrant Enclave
https://www.fairus.org/blog/2023/07/31/everything-bigger-texas-including-sprawling-migrant-enclave
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The largest illegal alien “colonia” in the United States is getting bigger. Located just north of Houston, the massive Colony Ridge development is home to more than 75,000 residents, nearly all of them migrants. The booming but sketchy assemblage of cheap single-family houses, mobile homes and hastily constructed shacks has been dubbed “The World’s Biggest Trailer Park.” Ten years ago, the area was mostly forested wetlands. Today it’s 10,000 acres of denuded residential lots, stretching mile after mile. The hyper-growth at Colony Ridge is stressing nearby towns, waterways and, as reported by FAIR, local schools. Conditions don’t figure to improve as the developer clear-cuts even larger swaths of woodlands to accommodate an unending wave of new arrivals. Colony Ridge’s marketing company, Terrenos Houston (website in Spanish), caters to migrants by issuing housing loans that do not require proof of citizenship. Prospective buyers simply use easily obtained Individual Taxpayer Identification Numbers (ITINs), with no need for a valid Social Security number in the application process.)

GOVERNING
— Political parties exist to help elect candidates who can and will defend and advance their platform. The Democrat Party focuses on that, but the Republican Party does not. Ever-increasingly, more and more and more leaders of the Republican Party in Illinois, DuPage County, and Milton Township reject more and more and more planks in the Republican Party platform, most commonly, the individual responsibility, traditional marriage and family, right to life, immigration, illegal drugs, Second Amendment, and/or equal opportunity (no race or gender based preference giving). I should write a book about that. I would focus on those leaders who have taken the most/biggest adverse actions against me since 2000 because I support the aforesaid planks.

(FROM THE ARTICLE: Monosexual privilege is defined as a “system of unearned advantages” afforded to straight people at the expense of people with bi, pan and fluid sexual identities, according to a Michigan State University gender and sexuality glossary. “These advantages and rights are so embedded into all dimensions of society that they are taken for granted and practically unrecognizable to heterosexual people,” the glossary states. The UT-Austin workshop, scheduled for August, is designed to affirm LGBTQIA+ people and allyship and warn against “heterosexual” and “monosexual” privilege; it’s one of several LGBTQIA+ themed workshops slated for next month.)

https://www.tpusa.com/live/nyc-initiative-offers-500000-race-based-journalism-scholarship-to-increase-diversity
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Diversity initiatives, scholarship programs, and admissions standards have all been called into public question following the Supreme Court’s recent ruling that struck down affirmative action. Other standards have quickly taken the place of the primarily race-based college admissions standards however, dubbed “adversity scores,” these new mechanisms rate students on a “disadvantage scale.” This scale rewards students with “disadvantaged” backgrounds with a higher score, and thus, a better shot at making the final cut. Many speculate, however, that following the Supreme Court’s effective termination of affirmative action, other race-based initiatives and incentives may be on their way out — or to court.)

They hint/imply/argue/shout that I have run Trump’s campaign in Wheaton, Milton Township, and DuPage County since 2015. They almost succeeded in rudely stopping me from reporting on the recent DeSantis event in Elmhurst. They have rudely stopped me from serving as the Republican fundraiser for Wheaton Independence Day parades and fireworks since 2021, a role that I had since 2005. They rudely ended my bid to be selected to fill the Wheaton City Council West District vacancy in 2019. They rudely gerrymandered my precinct in 2015. What more adverse actions will they take against me now? Based on the past, they will ramp up their efforts a) to stop me from sending out GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters and b) to stop everyone from reading those newsletters.

My father was only the first of my ancestors to earn a high school diploma. My mother never attended high school. My father never earned more than $50,000/year in today’s dollars. He almost always worked second jobs to pay the family’s bills. After he died suddenly in 1969 when he was 47 and I was 21, I helped support my mother and brother. My application for a financial hardship draft deferment was approved in early 1971. I lived with my mother and brother and helped support them with money that earned working for a) the Firestone Store in Chicago Heights 1970-1972 and b) for IRS 1971-1972.
https://www.nytimes.com/2023/07/02/us/affirmative-action-university-of-california-davis.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: In the Davis scale, first used in 2012, eight categories establish an adversity score for each candidate. Factors include family income, whether applicants come from an underserved area, whether they help support their nuclear families and whether their parents went to college. The higher an applicant rates on the disadvantage scale, the bigger the boost.)

Did any of your ancestors own slaves? None of my ancestors owned slaves. While they all immigrated during the 1840s and 1850s, they always lived in northeast Illinois. Affirmative Action (AA), Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) are reparations.

My critics/opponents have always hinted/implied/argued/shouted at those who are the aforesaid that because of that and because I avoided the draft, because I was grossly overpaid by the federal government, because my wife has always had income, and because we gave up trying to have children, we did not adopt, and we did not become foster parents, I should pay the price of Affirmative Action, Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion big time.

It is called up-or-out, political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, and age discrimination.

— DeSantis Hits Back at Scott Over Florida Standards – Luca Cacciatore
https://www.newsmax.com/newsfront/ron-desantis-tim-scott-2024/2023/07/28/id/1128911/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: But DeSantis, while in rural Iowa, accused Scott of joining his fellow moderate Republicans in the upper chamber by “all too often” accepting the left’s “false narratives” and “lies.” “The way you lead is to fight back against the lies is to speak the truth,” DeSantis said. “So, I’m here defending my state of Florida against false accusations and against lies, and we’re going to continue to speak the truth.” DeSantis’ campaign has accused the media of nitpicking the standards, pointing to an earlier Advanced Placement course on African American studies rejected by the state for being too woke that had the same required course content. Florida Education Department spokesman Alex Lanfranconi said the new standards resulted from a “rigorous process” that incorporated “all components of African American History: the good, the bad and the ugly.” Florida is 1 of 12 states that requires the teaching of African American history. The others are New York, Washington, Arkansas, Tennessee, South Carolina, Mississippi, Colorado, New Jersey, Rhode Island, Delaware, and Illinois. DeSantis and Scott have attempted to appeal to the same donor cohort, with the South Carolina lawmaker seeing an opening due to DeSantis’ dwindling poll numbers, Politico reported. While the Florida governor dropped from within four points of former President Donald Trump in February to nearly 37 points behind, Scott has remained at around 3% since his announcement.)

https://www.thomasmoresociety.org/news/giant-foodservices-corporation-sued-in-federal-court-for-religious-discrimination-and-wrongful-termination
(FROM THE ARTICLE: One of the largest corporations in the world is blatantly discriminating against white men—and punishing employees who dare to speak out against it. Infuriatingly, in our society today it’s become acceptable to discriminate in the workplace—as long as radical D.E.I. activists pick and choose what group of people is the “wrong” race and sex. Let me step back and explain…Courtney Rogers was an HR worker for Compass Group, USA when a new company program called “Operation Equity” was initiated. Compass falsely labeled this program a ‘diversity’ initiative, while specifically prohibiting participation by white men from its promised promotions and plentiful workplace benefits. You read that correctly… white men in Compass Group USA were not allowed to apply or participate. The program was only available to “women” and “people of color.” Even though she is not a white man herself, this blatant discrimination didn’t sit right with Courtney. She expressed her concerns and requested an accommodation, so that she would not be required to work on this new program. The initiative directly conflicted with her sincere religious beliefs holding that all people, regardless of race or gender, are created equal and should be treated fairly… just as our Constitution promises to all Americans. Courtney was assured by a manager that there would be no retaliation against her, and that she could be assigned different responsibilities……and yet within weeks, that very same manager terminated her. He had assured Courtney that she was doing excellent work, but the termination letter that Compass sent her said that she was being terminated for “unsatisfactory performance.” We’ve taken on Courtney’s lawsuit to get justice following her clearly wrongful termination and we’ll need your help in this critical battle. Compass Group has unlimited resources to fight our lawsuit. With your generous support, we must send a message to Compass Group—that they won’t get away with this discrimination.)

THOMAS MORE SOCIETY
— Pro-Life Pregnancy Help Ministries Sue Illinois Attorney General Over SB 1909 – Tom Ciesielka
https://www.thomasmoresociety.org/news/pro-life-pregnancy-help-ministries-sue-illinois-attorney-general-over-sb-1909
(FROM THE PRESS RELEASE: Today, Thomas More Society attorneys filed a federal lawsuit against Illinois Attorney General Kwame Raoul, seeking to stop him from enforcing Illinois Senate Bill 1909, a measure drafted by Raoul’s office that declares the pro-life speech of the state’s life pregnancy help ministries to be a “deceptive business practice.” Thomas More Society is representing NIFLA, a national pregnancy help center network, along with several Illinois pregnancy help centers and pro-life organizations. “This law is a blatant attempt to chill and silence pro-life speech under the guise of ‘consumer protection,’” explained Peter Breen, Thomas More Society Executive Vice President and Head of Litigation, and a former Illinois State Legislator. “Pregnancy help ministries provide real options and assistance to women and families in need, but instead of the praise they deserve, pro-abortion politicians are targeting these ministries with $50,000 fines and injunctions solely because of their pro-life viewpoint.” The lawsuit, filed in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Illinois, Western Division, seeks a temporary restraining order, preliminary injunction, and permanent injunction against SB 1909. If temporary and preliminary injunctions are granted, they would prevent the law from being enforced while the case makes its way through the court system. “The state government has completely overstepped the bounds of any logical and relevant authority by inserting insane partisan politics into their governing bodies and attempting to trample the First Amendment rights of those with whom they disagree,” said Thomas Glessner, President of NIFLA. “There is no basis for their blatant attacks on pregnancy centers, who provide all of their services for free for women and their families throughout Illinois. They do so out of their deeply held beliefs of caring for one another and exhibiting human decency and compassion for those in need, something the leaders of Illinois are completely clueless about. This attempt to deny mothers their constitutional right to choose life is disgraceful and should be an embarrassment to the people of Illinois.” Under this new revision to the Consumer Fraud and Deceptive Business Practices Act, the state seeks to curtail the speech of pro-life organizations by illegally targeting their efforts to “dissuade pregnant [women] from considering abortion care.” It also faults pro-life organizations for “pay[ing] for advertising… that is intended to attract consumers to their organizations and away from medical providers that offer” abortions, accusing the pro-life organizations of providing misleading information “overstating the risks associated with abortion.” Yet, Breen asserts, and as the filing states, that all of the abortion-related information provided by these pro-life centers and organizations is backed by scientific research. “In addition to being unconstitutional and extremely prejudicial,” added Breen, “state officials have not had cause to take legal action against pregnancy help centers, using the tools of the law that were already available.” This lawsuit, Breen stated, has been filed to protect the right of pro-life pregnancy help centers and sidewalk counselors across Illinois to continue their meaningful and important work of providing compassionate and competent advice, care, and support to thousands of women across Illinois facing unplanned pregnancies. Breen observed that the instigation of the new law, backed by Raoul, is completely without rationale or provocation. The Illinois Attorney General’s Office has not been able to provide any hard evidence that pregnancy help centers engage in so-called “deceptive practices.” According to Freedom of Information Act documents obtained from Raoul’s office, Breen shared that “the Attorney General has received zero complaints from members of the public against an Illinois Pregnancy Help Center for alleged violations of the Deceptive Business Practices Act.” Breen also testified before the Illinois House Health Care Availability & Accessibility Committee, which voted to advance SB 1909, despite receiving more than 17,000 witness slips from voters opposing the bill and only a little over 3,000 supporting it. Read the Complaint, seeking Temporary Restraining Order and Permanent Injunction from the State of Illinois’ just enacted Senate Bill 1909, filed on July 27, 2023, in the United States District Court – Northern District of Illinois Western Division, by Thomas More Society attorneys on behalf of the National Institute of Family and Life Advocates, Women’s Pregnancy Services, Rockford Family Initiative, Relevant Pregnancy Options Center, and Pro-Life Action League, in NIFLA, et al. v. Kwame Raoul here. Read about the testimony of Peter Breen in opposition to Illinois Senate Bill 1909 given before the Illinois House Health Care Availability & Accessibility Committee on April 25, 2023, here.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: PJM Interconnection LLC has declared a level one emergency for the 13-state eastern US grid and called on all power plants to operate at full capacity Thursday during a heat wave. The largest US grid issued an Energy Emergency Alert level one, meaning it is concerned about being able to maintain adequate power reserves on July 27 as consumers and businesses turn up their air conditioners amid scorching heat. Illinois is among the 13 states fully or partially served by PJM’s grid. That includes all of the Chicago metro area as well as much of Northern Illinois which is managed by ComEd.)

Seven Republicans have met RNC requirements to make the debate stage. – Kyle Morris (COMMENT: What criteria do the leaders of the following use to select candidates to encourage run: Illinois Republican Party (IRP), your Republican county party organization, and your Republican township/ward party organization? Do they use relevant work experience, relevant professional certifications and licenses, and relevant education? I should write about past and present leaders of the IRP, DuPage County Republican Central Committee, and Milton Township Republican Organization who have demonized, denigrated, and condemned my qualifications the most. I worked for GAO for almost 18 years, the last 11 years of which at the GS-13 Step 1-10 Levels, currently $109,732-$142,650/year. I worked for IRS for almost 9 years, the last 5 1/2 years of which at the GS-12 Step 1-5 Levels, currently $92,279-$104,583/year. I passed the CPA and Certified Internal Auditor examinations on my first attempt. I have four other job-related professional certifications (Fraud Examiner, Government Financial Manager, Financial Services Auditor, and Forensic Accountant). I became a licensed CPA. I have four job-related college degrees (management-BS NIU, business-MBA Loyola, accounting-MS DePaul, and finance-MS IIT).

(FROM THE ARTICLE: To make the stage, candidates are required to reach 1% in three national polls, or 1% in two national polls and two state-specific polls from the early voting states of Iowa, New Hampshire, South Carolina and Nevada. The polls must also be recognized by the RNC and must be conducted on or after July 1. Additionally, to reach the debate stage, candidates must have 40,000 unique donors to their campaign committee (or exploratory committee), with “at least 200 unique donors per state or territory in 20+ states and/or territories,” according to the RNC criteria.)

THE HILL
— Democrats say “Republicans to be more selective in choosing Senate candidates in 2024.” The leaders of the Illinois Republican Party, DuPage County Republican Central Committee, and Milton Township Republican Organization (MTRO) have not selected me to be a candidate for any elected office. More than that, they have viciously discouraged me from even thinking about running for any elected office. More than that, MTRO leaders a) viciously worked against my bid to be selected to fill the Wheaton City Council West District vacancy in 2019 and b) viciously defeated me (69 votes to my 13 votes) when I ran for the open MTRO Treasurer office in 2004. More than that, they ignore, dismiss, belittle, demonize, denigrate, and condemn the fact that a) I worked for GAO for almost 18 years, the last 11 years of which at the GS-13 Step 1-10 Levels, currently $109,732-$142,650/year, b) I passed the CPA and Certified Internal Auditor examinations on my first attempt, c) I became a licensed CPA and a Certified Fraud Examiner, Government Financial Manager, Financial Services Auditor, and Forensic Accountant, d) I served as the MTRO webmaster 2008-2010 and 2000-2004, e) I served on many MTRO fundraising committees, f) I have served as the GOPUSA Illinois Editor since 2000, g) I served as the Republican fundraiser for Wheaton Independence Day parades and fireworks 2005-2019, h) I served as the TAPROOT Republicans of Illinois chairman 2005-2012, i) I served as a member of the Wheaton Chamber of Commerce Government Affairs Committee 2003-2011, j) I served as a member of the Illinois Center Right Coalition Steering Committee 2003-2007, k) I serve as a member of the American Association of Political Consultants Midwest Chapter board 2001-2004, and l) I served as a member of the Milton Township Cemetery Authority 2001-2004.

They hint/imply/argue/shout that to be a journalist, you must have a degree in journalism, you must be liberal/moderate, you must be a Democrat, and you must get paid for what you do. In my defense, I worked for GAO as an analyst for almost 18 years, the last 11 years of which at the GS-13 Step 1-10 Levels, currently $109,132-$142,650/year. Much of what GAO analysts do is very similar to what journalists do.

(FROM THE ARTICLE: The city’s second African-American mayor, and the first in more than a generation, said the press was picking on him because he was Black. “I’m a Black man that’s the mayor, but my story is being interpreted by people who don’t look like me,” Adams said at the time, before launching a rant about newsroom diversity. The lecture didn’t go over well with editors and reporters, who wondered about the thickness of Adams’ skin. . .Adams on Friday announced a new scholarship Initiative to increase diversity in journalism that will commit at least $500,000 in one year for students of color in New York City to emulate the people they read online and in the newspapers and see on TV.)

— Are Racial Preferences in Faculty Hiring the Next to Go? – Em. Prof. Ira Sohn, Montclair State University (COMMENT: The Democrats who ran GAO in 1980, IRS in 1971, and the Post Office in 1966 hired me because they could not find a qualified Democrat, minority, female, veteran, or younger person who would take the job.)
https://www.wsj.com/articles/affirmative-action-racial-preferences-faculty-hiring-diversity-90d3e391

FORBES
— A Democrat says “Reverse Discrimination Against White Job Applicants And Employees” and asks “Or Is It Racial Equity?” To give preference to one group is to discriminate against another group. To give preference to those who are minority, female, younger, LGBTQ, veteran, non-Christian, non-Protestant, non-Italian American, non-German American, those whose ancestors have not been in America for a long time, and/or citizens of foreign countries is to discriminate against those who are White, male, older, heterosexual, non-veteran, Christian, Protestant, Italian American, German American, those whose ancestors have been in America for a long time, and/or citizens of America. I should write a book about that.

Residents of rich blue towns talk about inclusion, but their laws do the opposite.” As more and more and more Democrats move in, DuPage County, Milton Township, and Wheaton get more and more and more liberal. As someone who has lived in DuPage County, Milton Township, and Wheaton since 1978, I should write a book about that.

I earned 1 hour of annual leave and one hour of sick leave for each 20 hours that I worked part-time for the Park Forest Post Office 1966-1969. My working only part-time was treated as though I had worked full-time for federal seniority and for Civil Service Retirement System (CSRS) purposes. I earned 20 days of annual leave during each of the almost 9 years that I worked for IRS 1971-1980 and for the first 3 years that I worked for GAO 1980-1983. I earned 26 days of annual leave during each of the almost 15 years that I worked for GAO 1983-1997. I earned 1 hour of sick leave for each 20 hours that I worked part-time for the Park Forest Post Office 1966-1969 and 13 days each year that I worked for IRS 1971-1980 and for GAO 1980-1997. I was paid $16,460 in today’s dollars for my unused annual leave when I retired in 1997 and my many unused sick days were treated as though I had worked those days to increase my CSRS pension. In summary, I earned almost 600 annual leave days and more than 350 sick days while I worked for the federal government for almost 30 years. Of course, my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes have always been beyond furious about the aforesaid.

The city of Chicago is pursuing plans to convert empty office spaces on LaSalle street into affordable housing.” In 1974, when I was 25 years old, I bought a studio condo in the Outer Drive East building immediately after IRS promoted me to a GS-12 (currently $92,279/year) Revenue Officer position in the Loop. I walked to/from that condo and work and graduate business classes at Loyola until 1976 when I traded it in to the building’s developer for a one bedroom condo. I walked to/from that condo and work and graduate accounting courses at DePaul until 1978 when I got married, sold it for a $10,000 gain ($46,645 in today’s dollars), and bought a home in Wheaton with my wife.)

CHICAGO MAGAZINE
— Democrats say “Why Let Naperville Bother You? Naperville can’t hurt you if you simply don’t think about it at all.” (COMMENT: What are your connections with Naperville? My wife and I almost bought a home in Naperville in 1978. My wife’s brother and his family have lived in Naperville since 1989. One of his four daughters and her family continue to live in Naperville. During the 1990s, I took my 1962 Chevrolet Impala SS and my 1968 Dodge Charger R/T to car shows in Naperville. My wife and I bought an Iron Gate Motor Condo in late Naperville in 2020 and we recently sold it and bought a bigger one. I take my vehicles to Naperville for emissions testing.
https://www.chicagomag.com/city-life/why-let-naperville-bother-you/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Our mayor won’t stop talking about Naperville. “This City Council meeting is being recorded live from Naperville,” Mayor Johnson said, at the beginning of his first meeting as mayor. At last week’s Netroots Nation convention, he reminded attendees, “We’re not in Naperville.” The mayor was taking a dig at Fox and Friends for airing an interview with two disgruntled Chicago voters on the day of his inauguration: it was conducted at Rosie’s Home Cookin’ — in Naperville. Let’s be real, though: The mayor was also taking a dig at Naperville. It’s become a Chicago tradition. Whenever a Chicagoan complains about the proverbial suburbanite who claims to be from Chicago, it’s always someone “from Naperville.”)

FOX ILLINOIS
— Democrats acknowledge that “Sangamon County residents seek answers on migrant crisis impact in Illinois.” Democrats want migrants because migrants vote for Democrats. RINOs want migrants because RINOs want cheap labor.
https://foxillinois.com/news/local/sangamon-county-residents-seek-answers-on-migrant-crisis-impact-in-illinois
(FROM THE ARTICLE: “We’re footing the bill for it all, and so things are getting tight. We need answers,” said Pulido, Illinois state advisor for the Federation for American Immigration Reform (FAIR). “These people ran for office to be our representatives, and they need to get educated number one and number two, come up with some ideas.” During the town hall a number of concerns around the immigration issue were also brought up. One of the biggest concerns and issues that was shared was where Illinois taxpayer money and resources are being used. “Illinois is spending $3.9 billion a year for illegal aliens who are present in your state The single largest cost is K through 12–it’s education. It’s the children of illegal aliens. That is the biggest cost to the state of Illinois for $2.3 billion. The second one is criminal justice,” said Susan Tully, FAIR special projects law enforcement liaison and speaker for the forum. Other worries that were brought up are the overcrowding in schools, housing, and hospitals, as well as the human trafficking that happens at the border. Sangamon County Sheriff Jack Campbell and State Representative Mike Coffey were among those in the audience at the town hall.)

CENTRAL ILLINOIS PROUD
— Democrats say “Trump downplays his legal challenges on the campaign trail in Iowa after revealing new target letter.” My Democrat IRS superiors not only never downplay the career challenges that I faced because they disallowed my travel vouchers in 1974 and disallowed my education deductions in 1978, they stressed those career challenges. That was one reason why I suffered a $21,863/year (21%) pay cut in today’s dollars to transfer from IRS to GAO in 1980.

https://www.nctv17.org/news/naperville-chief-of-police-dupage-county-states-attorney-respond-to-elimination-of-cash-bail/

POLITICO ILLINOIS
— Democrats say “Cash bail ends — but not its politics. . .Our inbox was full of statements from Republican leaders criticizing the ruling. It’s a signal the cash bail law will be a talking point in 2022 – even though the law will already be in effect. The GOP outrage: Congresswoman Mary Miller (IL-15) predicted the law “will flood the streets” with dangerous criminals. State Sen. Andrew Chesney accused Democrats of enacting “the most radical soft-on-crime policies in the country.” And state Republican Senate Leader John Curran called for a special session of the Democratic-controlled General Assembly “to properly address the negative impact on the public before this reckless statute goes into effect in just 60 days.” Sounds familiar: Republicans used similar language ahead of the 2022 election. Broadsheet publications designed to read like real newspapers fueled misinformation about the criminal justice reform law known as the SAFE-T Act, which includes eliminating cash bail. The publications stirred confusion and forced Democrats to spend time explaining the nuances of the law, even though it had already passed and had nothing to do with the election itself. Ultimately, Democrats came out ahead after the election, gaining even more seats in the General Assembly and re-electing Democratic Gov. JB Pritzker, who had signed the law abolishing cash bail. What’s next: Watch for Republicans to revisit the 2022 campaign tactic nonetheless. From the right: “Democrats’ position on eliminating cash bail and being soft on crime will be a top issue that will impact the 2024 election — especially in the suburbs,” GOP political consultant Jon Zahm told Playbook.”

NEW YORK POST
— Affirmative action in hiring must end – Vivek Ramaswamy (COMMENT: Democrats and RINOs have ever-increasing used Affirmative Action to get rid of Republicans, that is, Democrats and RINOs have ever-increasingly used patronage, political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, and age discrimination to get rid of Republicans. I should write a book about that.)
https://nypost.com/2023/07/16/follow-supremes-merit-based-lead-affirmative-action-in-hiring-must-end-too/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: It turns out we’ve been living in a strictly enforced aristocracy — one based on where you fall in the “intersectional hierarchy” or oppression index. We’ve replaced color-blindness with merit-blindness and left ourselves utterly in the dark as to how to find competent individuals to start fixing our most serious problems. As the Asian students who just won their case at the Supreme Court found out the hard way, your ethnic heritage can indeed work against you at America’s preeminent DEI — diversity, equity, inclusion — enforcement camp, formerly known as the Ivy League. When the Supreme Court struck down affirmative action in higher education in Students for Fair Admissions v. Harvard, many cheered. Finally, our sacred meritocracy would be restored! Excellence would matter again. A student’s intellectual ability would be valued again. GPAs and SAT scores might even make a comeback! It remains to be seen if the law will have any effect on the blatantly unconstitutional practices long entrenched at college-admissions offices. Backwards job quotas But make no mistake — ugly racial quotas and unconstitutional policies are in full effect at corporate America’s HR departments. Anyone who works at a large company understands this. Less-qualified people are routinely hired and promoted over others based on shallow, literally skin-deep metrics. Hiring employees from disfavored demographic groups — men, Asians, heterosexuals, whites — won’t help boost your corporate ESG (environment, social and governance) score, so why bother? Could the new Supreme Court ruling also apply to corporate America? As 13 courageous state attorneys general recently pointed out in their letter to the Fortune 100 CEOs, it sure does. “Let there be no confusion: These principles apply equally to Title VII and other laws restricting race-based discrimination in employment and contracting. Courts routinely interpret Title VI and Title VII in conjunction with each other, adopting the same principles and interpretation for both statutes,” they wrote. “Accordingly, the Supreme Court’s recent decision should place every employer and contractor on notice of the illegality of racial quotas and race-based preferences in employment and contracting practices.” It’s thrilling to see state officials take their obligations to enforce anti-discrimination laws seriously. Kudos to the AGs from Kansas, Tennessee, Alabama, Arkansas, Indiana, Iowa, Kentucky, Mississippi, Missouri, Montana, Nebraska, South Carolina and West Virginia. Could these 13 states forge a new meritocratic alliance? A sanctuary region where skilled and talented people of any race could flourish without kneeling to the woke DEI gods? Of course, the Trump administration deserves credit for starting this pushback; its Department of Labor launched investigations into Microsoft and Wells Fargo over racial preferences and representation goals. But starting in 2020, the newly energized equity freight train plowed through the boardroom of every big company. What will the long-term consequences of this practice be in terms of competence, reputation and profit? Incredibly, even the airlines announced they would be hiring new pilots according to strict affirmative-action guidelines. In 2021, United Airlines vowed to make sure at least 50% of its new pilots are women or people of color. In 2023, Bud Light told United, “Hold my beer.” Making corporate DEI illegal is also good for the companies. If applied, this law would prevent them from making terrible business decisions — decisions that harm qualified applicants, keep talented people from achieving success, wreck valuable brands and make flyers worry about their plane crashing. As the AG letter concludes, “Social mobility is essential for the long-term viability of a democracy, and our leading institutions should continue to provide opportunities to underprivileged Americans. Race, though, is a poor proxy for what is fundamentally a class distinction. We urge you to immediately cease any unlawful race-based quotas or preferences your company has adopted for its employment and contracting practices. If you choose not to do so, know that you will be held accountable — sooner rather than later — for your decision to continue treating people differently because of the color of their skin. Federal law is now crystal clear that these corporate policies are illegal. We will see whether the Biden administration — which has so loudly claimed to support the Civil Rights Act — will enforce it.)

Further, they have always stressed that I am heterosexual, conservative, Republican, White, male, old (born in 1948), draft avoider, non-poor, gun-owner, Protestant (baptized, raised, and confirmed as a Missouri Synod Lutheran), 100% German American, my ancestors have been in America since 1844, a Crete resident 1948-1972, and a Wheaton resident since 1978.  Again, I should write a book about that.

Did you have to take bad jobs? I did. Because my parents lacked money, I did yard work 1962-1964, delivered newspapers 1962-1966, washed dishes 1964-1966, cleaned golf shoes, chipped slag, and pumped gasoline in 1966, and delivered mail 1966-1969. With the money that I earned, I bought a 1958 Chevrolet Bel Air in 1964, I bought a new 1966 Pontiac Tempest Sprint in 1966, I paid for my UIC expenses 1966-1968 and for my NIU expenses 1969-1970, I bought a new 1968 Oldsmobile 442 in 1967, I bought a new 1969 Dodge Charger SE in 1968, and I graduated debt-free from NIU with a bachelor’s degree in management and owning that Charger in 1970. If there had been as many illegals back then as there are now, illegals would have gotten the jobs that I got and the wages paid for those jobs would have been much less.

560 THE ANSWER
— Jeanne Ives Joins AM 560 Starting Tonight
https://560theanswer.com/radioshow/the-real-story
(FROM THE ANNOUNCEMENT: An informed and educated citizenry is the only guarantee to preserve our constitutional republic. Each week hear from policy experts — not pundits — to find out what’s really happening so that you can be informed. Get The Real Story with Jeanne Ives. There’s no topic of public policy concern that she won’t talk about. Stop the lies. Learn the truth on The Real Story with Jeanne Ives. . .Jeanne Ives served three terms as an Illinois State Representative. First elected in 2012, Representative Ives demonstrated not only a willingness to lead on difficult issues and question powerful House leaders, but also an insightful understanding of policy. In keeping with her fiscally conservative principles, she refused both a taxpayer funded pension and healthcare. Her legislation has been recognized throughout the state. During her tenure, Representative Ives focused on bringing about true pension and tax reform in the state, government transparency, and advocating for school choice. Her opinion pieces have been published in the Chicago Tribune, The Federalist and the Wall Street Journal as well as several political news sites. In 2018, she was enlisted by Illinois families and business owners, as well as legislative colleagues to run a campaign for Governor after incumbent Republican Bruce Rauner betrayed his campaign promises to fiscally reform government and pursue no social agenda. In 2020, Representative Ives ran for Congress against Democrat incumbent Sean Casten. Her effort was not successful, but her campaign created a new momentum in the suburbs for conservative thought. As such, Jeanne started a non-profit Breakthrough Ideas whose mission is to build the infrastructure and conservative networks (online and grassroots) needed to advance conservative ideas and Republican candidates in the suburbs. Representative Ives graduated in the West Point Class of 1987 with a Bachelor of Science in Economics. She went on to serve in the US Army. Her assignments included platoon leader and headquarters detachment commander for transportation units in Germany and ROTC instructor at Wheaton College. She resigned from the Army in 1993 to raise her children. At the same time, she worked as a tax advisor and bookkeeper for small businesses and individuals. Prior to her election to the Illinois House, Ives served on the Wheaton City Council, where her tenure was marked by conservative leadership and an unwavering commitment to the taxpayers’ bottom line. Her awards include Champion of Free Enterprise from the Illinois Chamber of Commerce, the inaugural Titanium Backbone Award from Illinois Family Institute for her pro-family stances, and 100% rating from the American Conservative Union. Jeanne has lived in Wheaton for 29 years with her husband, Paul (also a USMA Class of 1987 graduate), and their 5 children. The tradition continues with three sons serving in the military. One of her greatest joys was coaching the championship St. Michael Boys and Girls Cross Country teams for 12 years as a parent volunteer.)

NEW YORK DAILY NEWS
— Illegal immigration drives wages down for those who lack education and/or job skills. Democrats and RINOs ever-increasingly want cheap labor, that is, they ever-increasingly want people who lack education and/or job skills to take bad jobs, that is, they ever-increasingly want illegals to fill bad jobs. Did you have to take bad jobs? I did. Because my parents lacked money, I did yard work 1962-1964, delivered newspapers 1962-1966, washed dishes 1964-1966, cleaned golf shoes, chipped slag, and pumped gasoline in 1966, and delivered mail 1966-1969. With the money that I earned, I bought a 1958 Chevrolet Bel Air in 1964, I bought a new 1966 Pontiac Tempest Sprint in 1966, I paid for my UIC expenses 1966-1968 and for my NIU expenses 1969-1970, I bought a new 1968 Oldsmobile 442 in 1967, I bought a new 1969 Dodge Charger SE in 1968, and I graduated debt-free from NIU with a bachelor’s degree in management and owning that Charger in 1970. If there had been as many illegals back then as there are now, illegals would have gotten the jobs that I got and the wages paid for those jobs would have been much less.

TOWNHALL & DAILY SIGNAL
— Ten Reasons Why Affirmative Action Died – Victor Davis Hanson (COMMENT: My critics/opponents have always rejected the equal opportunity (no race or gender based preference giving) plank in the Republican Party platform, that is, they have always promoted patronage, political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, and age discrimination. I should write a book about them and how they have used Affirmative Action against me since 1966. I would focus on a) my Democrat superiors in the federal government, b) leaders of the Milton Township Republican Organization, DuPage County Republican Central Committee, and Illinois Republican Party, c) leaders of Wheaton, Wheaton Chamber of Commerce, Wheaton Park District, Milton Township, DuPage County, and Illinois, d) conservative leaders and activists, and e) religious leaders and activists.)
https://townhall.com/columnists/victordavishanson/2023/07/14/ten-reasons-why-affirmative-action-died-n2625719
https://www.dailysignal.com/2023/07/14/10-reasons-why-affirmative-action-died/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The end of affirmative action was inevitable. The only surprise was that such intentions went terribly wrong and lasted so long. First, supporters of racial preferences always pushed back the goalposts for the program’s success. Was institutionalized reverse bias to last 20 years, 60 years, or ad infinitum? Parity became defined as an absolute equality of results. If “equity” was not obtained, then only institutionalized “racism” explained disparities. And only reverse racism was deemed the cure. Second, affirmative action was imposed on the back end in adult hiring and college admissions. However, to achieve parity, remediation early at the K-12 school level would have been the only solution. Yet such intervention was made impossible by teachers’ unions, the rise of identity politics, and government entitlements. All opposed school choice, self-help programs, critiques of cultural impediments, or restrictions on those blanket entitlements. Third, class, the true barometer of privilege, was rendered meaningless. Surrealism followed. The truly privileged Barack and Michelle Obama and Meghan Markel lectured the country on its unfairness — as if they had it far rougher than the impoverished “deplorable” of East Palestine, Ohio. Fourth, affirmative action supporters could never square the circle of proving that racial prejudices didn’t violate the spirit of the Declaration of Independence and the text of the Constitution. What they were left with was the lame argument that because long ago, the 90% white majority had violated their own foundational documents, then such past bad unconstitutional bias could legitimately be rectified by present-day “good” unconstitutional bias. Fifth, supporters never adequately explained why the sins of prior generations fell on their descendants who grew up in the post-Civil Rights era. Nor could they account for why those who had never experienced institutionalized racism, much less Jim Crow apartheid or slavery, were to be compensated collectively for the suffering of long-dead individuals. No wonder 70% of the American people in many polls favored ending affirmative action, including half of African-Americans. Sixth, there never was a “rainbow” coalition of shared non-white victimhood — a concept necessary to perpetuate the premise of white privilege, supremacy, and rage, so integral to race-based reverse discrimination. More than a dozen ethnicities earn more per capita than whites. Asians have been subject to coerced internment, immigration restrictions, and zoning exclusions. Yet on average, they do better than whites economically and enjoy lower suicide rates and longer life expectancies. The arguments for affirmative action never explained why Asians and other minorities who faced discrimination outperformed the majority white population. As a result, affirmative action ended up discriminating against Asians on the premise they were too successful! Seventh, no one ever explained when affirmative action was to apply. Blacks, for example, were vastly “overrepresented” in merit-based professional football and basketball. Yet no one demanded “proportional representation” to address such “disparate impact” despite the underrepresentation of all other demographics. Yet if Blacks were “underrepresented” in baseball, then reparatory measures were supposed to address that fact — even if Latino players were “overrepresented” and whites “underrepresented” as well. No one in our race-obsessed culture, of course, objected that white males died at twice their demographics in combat in Afghanistan and Iraq. Eighth, in our increasingly intermarried mass-immigration society, few could adjudicate who was what, or much less what standard gave one racial preference. In lunatic fashion, pink, blond Massachusetts Senator Elizabeth Warren became Harvard’s first “Native American” law professor due to her “high cheekbones.” Light-skinned Latinos were considered marginalized, while some darker Italians or Greeks were not. Ninth, an odious wokeism absorbed affirmative action and changed it into something even more abhorrent — as the original spirit of the Civil Rights movement was trashed. So Americans were asked to stomach a return to distasteful segregated dorms, “separate but equal” graduation ceremonies, and racially exclusive workshops. Tenth, and finally, affirmative action was insidiously destroying meritocracy. That hallmark American value of tribally-blind inclusivity had once explained why the nation outshone the world by discarding the old class prejudices of Europe. But increasingly, this value seemed to have been abandoned. When Stockton Rush, the late captain, and inventor of the ill-fated Titan deep-sea explorer, was quoted postmortem bragging that his company had no need of “old white guys” with long military expertise in submarining, Americans realized that woke racial discrimination was not just repulsive, but could get you killed. A nation whose pilot training, medical-school admissions, and military high command promotions were increasingly adopting racial, gender, or sexual-orientation essentialism was a country headed for the sort of Third World tribalism characteristic of failed states abroad. Ultimately, the court finally stepped in to end this unconstitutional aberration, more like the old Soviet commissariat than our ideals of equality under the law. The American people concurred. And the only regret seemed to be, why not sooner?)
