I did not quit my IRS job even though 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.)

IRS hired me in 1971 because it could not find a qualified Democrat, minority, female, or veteran who would take the job. The Post Office hired me in 1966 because it could not find a qualified Democrat, minority, female, or veteran who would take the job. In 1997, GAO forced me to retire so that it could give my job and my preferred corner office to my Black subordinate.  In 1971, Oldsmobile withdrew a job offer that I had accepted saying that it had just agreed to stop hiring Whites to settle an EEOC complaint.)

— A critique of critical race theory – Eric Utter
https://www.americanthinker.com/blog/2021/11/a_critique_of_critical_race_theory.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Does Crappy Critical Race Theory hold that as long as there is still one white person left in the country, it is systemically, structurally racist? Are CRTers saying the only way to eliminate racism is to eliminate the white race? Because that’s what it appears they are implying. And that seems as racist—systemically and structurally racist—as it is possible to be. In fact, it would effectively be genocide. So why, then, do literally millions of people of color (POC) from around the world want to come here? Why do they go to so much trouble and effort to come to this nation? Do they hate themselves? Are they all masochists who wish to be systemically oppressed? Are they all stupid? Perhaps they are all white supremacists, too, à la Larry Elder, Candace Owens, Winsome Sears, et al? It seems odd to me that CRT states that skin color must be the primary way to identify and categorize people.)

— Review panel to consider funding ‘implicit bias’ and ‘antiracism’ training in schools – Greg Bishop (COMMENT: Ever-increasingly, Democrats blame Republicans for problems that minority students have.)
https://www.thecentersquare.com/illinois/review-panel-to-consider-funding-implicit-bias-and-antiracism-training-in-schools/article_ee06f854-3e78-11ec-b88e-2b9c0041190c.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Funding proposals for implicit bias and antiracism training in schools are coming into focus and some see it as an unnecessary controversy that distracts from education in the state’s 850 districts. A draft proposal from the Illinois State Board of Education Professional Review Panel set to be considered next month contemplates how to spend an additional $350 million from the evidence based funding model that lawmakers approved several years ago. There are recommendations for a variety of programs, including teaching foreign languages. There are also suggestions for “interventions to have more explicit focus on racial dynamic, including equity direct approaches that offer concrete strategies for teachers’ behavioral changes in the classroom and increased bias awareness.” The draft proposals “recognize that students of color do not inherently need additional supports by nature of their race/ethnicity, but that these students do face inequities because of historical and existing structures, and there is a cost attendant with working to dismantle those inequities through training on antiracism and eliminating implicit bias within schools and districts.” To address that, the proposal adds “a specific Professional Development cost … related to implicit bias and antiracism at a fixed per-pupil cost based on overall enrollment, with additional per-pupil dollar amount for all students where a district serves over 50% non-white students.”)

I am NOT eligible to join ERGs for: non-Whites, women, LGBTQers, younger people, veterans, disabled people, poor people, people with major health problems, non-gun owners, non-citizens of America, non-married people, parents, non-patriotic people, non-Christians, non-Protestants, non-German Americans, Trump-haters, moderates, liberals, Democrats, Libertarians, Greens, Independents, RINOs, dog owners, boozers, gamblers, stoners, foreign nameplate vehicle owners, those whose ancestors have not been in America for a long time, etc.)
https://www.wsj.com/articles/why-ergs-are-on-the-rise-11635532232
(FROM THE ARTICLE: ERGs—also called affinity groups—sprang up in the 1970s almost exclusively to recruit and retain Black staffers. They subsequently expanded to also serve women, various ethnicities, gay people, veterans, individuals with disabilities, plus interests such as mental health and the environment. – Roughly 90% of major U.S. employers currently have ERGs, says Mr. Martin, based on the productivity institute’s research. He says the research also shows that the proportion of those employers with at least 10 groups has risen from a decade ago.)

— Cops Rarely Pull Over Drivers In Their Own Neighborhoods, Data Shows. Motorists In Black Neighborhoods Aren’t So Lucky. Drivers are least likely to be pulled over on the far Northwest and Southwest sides, where many first responders live. Ald. Nick Sposato said that’s because “white people just know how to talk their way out of a ticket.” – Pascal Sabino

WASHINGTON EXAMINER
— In the era of wokeness, a white male wins a discrimination case – CHRISTOPHER TREMOGLIE (COMMENT: I should write a book about Diersen v. GAO. In 1997, when I was 49 years old, my Democrats GAO superiors forced me to take their early retirement “offer” a) to further punish me for my opposing their political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, age discrimination, and retaliation, b) to further punish me for my becoming an active member in a class action lawsuit in 1988 that charged them with reverse discrimination, age discrimination, and retaliation, and c) to allow them to give my job and my preferred corner office to my Black subordinate, which they did. Previously, they had given 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 who had hired me in 1980, got me assigned to audits of IRS in 1986, and promoted me in 1986, kept me off audits of IRS for all but 3 (1986-1988) 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. In my book, I would focus on RINO federal elected officials in Illinois, their staff members, political consultants, major donors, fundraisers, pollsters, campaign managers, campaign staff members, and staff members who sided with my Democrat GAO superiors.)
https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/restoring-america/fairness-justice/in-the-era-of-wokeness-a-white-male-wins-a-discrimination-case
(FROM THE ARTICLE: In a world of woke extremism, one North Carolina man stood up to the bullies and won. David Duvall, a former Novant Health executive, was awarded $10 million after being fired for discriminatory reasons, WNCT reported. Duvall is a white male and asserted he was replaced in his job for purposes of diversity, not merit. For five years, Duvall was the senior vice president for marketing and communications at Novant before he lost his job. Luke Largess, Duvall’s attorney, stated , “he was fired and replaced by two women, one a racial minority, during a Diversity and Inclusion initiative in 2018 that included explicit goals to remake the demographics of Novant’s senior leadership.” Duvall took his case to the courts, and a jury sided with him. WNCT reported that a jury in the U.S. District Court for the Western District of North Carolina’s Charlotte Division found that Duvall demonstrated “that his race (Caucasian) and/or his sex (male) was a motivating factor in Novant Health’s decision to terminate him.” Furthermore, the jury decided that Novant Health did not prove “that it would have made the same decision to terminate David Duvall regardless of his race (Caucasian) and/or his sex (male).”)

— Dem Hypocrites at CNN Still In Full Panic Over GOP Redistricting – Lydia Switzer
https://www.newsbusters.org/blogs/nb/lydia-switzer/2021/10/27/dem-hypocrites-cnn-still-full-panic-over-gop-redistricting
(FROM THE ARTICLE: When Republicans redistrict, CNN lambasts their partisanship, but when Democrats gerrymander? Radio silence. Last week, John Avlon accused Texas Republicans of crafting a “blatantly partisan, pro-white map,” while ignoring the proposed Illinois congressional map giving even more power to Democrats; the map, according to FiveThirtyEight, would add one Democratic seat and subtract two Republican seats. This would leave only 3 out of 17 House seats to Republicans (17.6% of seats), despite 40% of Illinois citizens voting for Trump in 2020.)

NEW YORK TIMES
— A Wealth Tax. What are the pluses and minuses? – David Leonhardt (COMMENT: The more of your income that you spend on immediate pleasures (vacations, spectator sports, fancy restaurant meals, pets, booze, gambling, pot, etc.), the less wealth that you will have.)
https://www.nytimes.com/2021/10/28/briefing/wealth-tax-spending-bill-manchin.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Most Americans pay an annual wealth tax on their largest asset. It’s called property tax. Each year, they pay an amount equal to a small percentage of the estimated value of their house, and a house is by far the most valuable item that most families own. The very rich are different. While they pay property taxes too, their homes tend to make up a tiny share of their net worth. The bulk of their assets are not taxed. In past decades, other taxes — like the corporate tax (the burden of which falls on stockholders) and the estate tax — served almost as de facto wealth taxes. But those other taxes have declined, causing the total federal tax rate on the wealthy to plummet 🙂
