— How much pressure and from who is your Republican Precinct Committeeman under to dump the personal responsibility, traditional marriage and family, right to life, immigration, illegal drugs, Second Amendment, and/or equal opportunity (no race or gender based preference giving) planks in the Republican Party platform? Since 1999, I have been under ever-increasingly more such pressure. I should write a book about that. I would stress that in my DuPage County Milton Township Precinct 59 in Wheaton, Trump got 86 votes while Haley got only 32.

— Is Chicago’s tepid turnout a ‘warning sign’ for President Joe Biden in November? Whether the city’s low voter turnout on Tuesday is a sign of apathy or dissatisfaction, Gov. J.B. Pritzker and key Democrats are downplaying the significance for President Joe Biden. But one leading pollster calls it a warning bell for other key Democratic cities: ‘These cities need to be engines of turnout.’ – Tina Sfondeles

AMERICANS FOR TAX REFORM
— Few Americans Want to Work for Biden’s IRS (COMMENT: Potential IRS employees who are Republican, White, male, and/or non-veteran should be advised that IRS will waste their career and get rid of them if they do not make GS-13 ($115,439) by age 25, GS-14 ($136,414) by age 30, GS-15 ($160,458) by age 35, and Senior Executive Service ($191,900) by age 40 and that extremely few IRS employees make the aforesaid promotion deadlines. IRS offered me a GS-7 (currently $54,728) job as a Revenue Officer in 1971 when I was 22 because IRS could not find a qualified Democrat, minority, female, and/or veteran who would take the job. I had had earned a bachelor’s degree in management and passed the Federal Service Entrance Examination in 1970. I accepted the offer because I was unemployed. My Firestone Store boss had rudely fired me because I had accepted a job offer from Oldsmobile. But Oldsmobile withdrew that offer saying that it had just agreed to stop hiring Whites to settle an EEOC complaint. IRS could not offer me a job as a Revenue Agent because I had not taken enough accounting courses.)
https://www.atr.org/few-americans-want-to-work-for-bidens-irs-oddly-enough/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The official IRS watchdog released a report last week noting the IRS is not attracting qualified applicants for its “revenue generating” positions. In a March 11, 2024 report the Treasury Inspector General for Tax Administration wrote: “Additionally, the external applications that have been received are far below the IRS targeted goal and there is an overall shortage of individuals with the desired background and experience, which has created further challenges in hiring.” And as noted by Government Executive magazine, referencing an Aug. 2023 TIGTA report: IRS had planned to bring on 3,833 revenue agents in fiscal 2023, but in the first six months officials had recruited just 34. Perhaps Americans are not attracted to employment with an agency that got caught illegally backdating penalty documents and signatures; an agency that got caught intentionally destroying 30 million tax forms submitted by taxpayers attempting to resolve their taxes; an agency unwilling or unable to protect sensitive personal information.)

https://www.wsj.com/us-news/angela-chao-was-well-over-alcohol-limit-at-time-of-deadly-texas-crash-fd0305bd
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Global shipping executive Angela Chao had nearly three times the legal limit of alcohol in her system when she drove a Tesla into a pond and drowned in Texas, according to a law-enforcement report released Wednesday that concluded her death was an “unfortunate accident.” The chief executive of Foremost Group died Feb. 11 after putting her car in reverse and driving into the pond on her Texas ranch in Johnson City, according to the report by the Blanco County Sheriff’s Office. A toxicology test on Chao showed a blood alcohol concentration level of 0.23, the report said. The legal limit is 0.08 in Texas. While Chao was over the Texas limit for driving on public roads, her alcohol level at the time of death isn’t considered against the law because she was driving on private property, said Chief Deputy Robert Woodring with the sheriff’s office.)

— The headlines should be “Trump crushes Haley.” With 97% of the precincts reporting, Trump got 469,586 votes statewide while Haley got only 83,525. With 100% of the precincts reporting, Trump got 35,944 votes in DuPage County while Haley got only 10,702 and Trump got 5,517 votes in Milton Township while Haley got only 2,330. What does that say to the leaders of the Illinois Republican Party (IRP), DuPage County Republican Central Committee, and Milton Township Republican Organization? What does that say to the IRP State Convention Platform and Resolution Committee? It says that Illinois Republican voters reject Haley’s anti-Trumpism and that they reject “Democrat Lite.” What does Trump want to see in the new RNC platform and in the new IRP platform? I am on the IRP State Convention Platform and Resolutions Committee. – Dave Drersen

— How many cast Republican primary ballots in your precinct? How many votes did Trump and Haley get in your precinct? 128 (35%) of the 370 registered Republican voters in my DuPage County Milton Township Precinct 59 in Wheaton cast Republican primary ballots. Trump got 86 votes while Haley got only32 votes. The rest of the races were uncontested. In those races, State’s Attorney Berlin was the high vote getter with 115. I got 109 votes. There is at least 1 registered Republican voter in 224 homes and 4 apartments in my precinct. – Dave Diersen

— Of course, for the November 5, 2024 general election, I want to help elect those candidates who won the Republican primary in my precinct. Those candidates are Donald Trump, John Booras, Amy Grant, Bob Berlin, Jaye Wang, Bob Grogan, Richard Jorgensen, Nicole Prater, Annette Corrigan, Jeff Caste, Kenton Skarin, Jason Helland, and John Costello. But according to my critics/opponents, I am far too conservative and my demographics are terrible, and because of that, the more that I do to help elect candidates in general elections, the fewer votes that those candidates will get. If you were me, how would you deal with that? My critics/opponents reject the personal responsibility, traditional marriage and family, right to life, immigration, illegal drugs, Second Amendment, and/or equal opportunity (no race or gender based preference giving) planks in the Republican Party platform. My critics/opponents had their operatives and their dupes end my service as the Republican fundraiser for Wheaton Independence Day parades and fireworks in 2021. – Dave Diersen

TEXAS TRIBUNE
— Texas GOP chair Matt Rinaldi won’t seek reelection. Rinaldi’s three-year tenure as chair of the GOP saw vicious infighting and historic gains for the state’s far right. – ROBERT DOWNEN (COMMENT: I should write a book about how the Illinois Republican Party has become more and more and more “Democrat Lite,” that is, more and more and more anti-conservative, that is, more and more and more anti-Republican.)
https://www.texastribune.org/2024/03/15/matt-rinaldi-texas-republican-chair-reelection/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Republican Party of Texas Chair Matt Rinaldi announced Friday that he will not seek reelection, ending a three-year tenure that was marked by an escalating GOP civil war, white supremacy scandal and historic 2024 primary gains for the party’s right wing. “After almost three years serving as Chairman, traveling the state and spending many long nights on the road, it is time for me to focus on my obligations as a husband to my wife, Corley, and as a father to my six-year-old son, Rush,” Rinaldi said in a Friday afternoon statement. “I ran for State Chairman on a platform of growing the party, increasing its influence and making it one that effectively amplifies the voice of grassroots Republicans. I am happy to report we were successful on all accounts.” Rinaldi has chaired the Texas GOP since 2021, when he was elected by the party’s executive committee to replace outgoing Chair Allen West. He was then reelected by delegates of the 2022 state GOP convention. His announcement comes amid an ongoing civil war between the Texas GOP’s far-right and more moderate, but still deeply conservative, wings. Rinaldi has been a key player in that fight as chairman, often accusing more moderate Republicans such as House Speaker Dade Phelan of being insufficiently conservative. A staunch ally of the party’s far-right wing and its billionaire funders, Rinaldi was particularly active in the 2024 primary elections, in which a dark-red wave swept many House incumbents out of office. Rinaldi noted the outcomes of the 2024 primaries in his Friday announcement, calling it a “political earthquake” that elevated “grassroots members” above “lobbyists, office holders and corporate donors.” Rinaldi also vowed in his statement to help elect his successor at this year’s state GOP convention. Minutes after Rinaldi announced his retirement, Abraham George announced he would run for party chair. Rinaldi — as well as Attorney General Ken Paxton and other Rinaldi allies — then endorsed George, who lost in his 2024 primary to Rep. Candy Noble, R-Lucas, by 5 percentage points. George will now face current Texas GOP Vice Chair Dana Myers to lead the party. Reaction to Rinaldi’s announcement was mixed — and emblematic of the Texas GOP’s internal strife. Paxton called him “tremendous,” and Rep. Nate Schatzline, R-Fort Worth, praised Rinaldi for “helping reform the party” before urging Republicans to support George’s run for chair. Others said his departure is an opportunity for the Texas GOP to change course. “While I wish Matt all the best, make no mistake that this is a great and welcomed opportunity for us to elevate and elect a conservative leader who will be laser-focused on uniting all Republicans around our shared mission of defeating liberals up and down the ballot in every corner of the state,” Rep. Jeff Leach, a Plano Republican and Rinaldi nemesis, told The Texas Tribune. Leaders of the Texas Democratic Party also blasted Rinaldi in a Friday evening statement, accusing him of “plunging the party into the depths of MAGA extremism” and “leading the charge to defund public education, curtail voting rights and restrict reproductive healthcare decisions for Texans.” Rinaldi served two terms in the House representing HD 115, north of Dallas, before losing in the 2018 general election to Rep. Julie Johnson, D-Farmers Branch. As a legislator, he was a reliable ally of the state’s far right and Tim Dunn and Farris Wilks, two West Texas oil billionaires who also bankrolled Rinaldi’s career in the House. Rinaldi was perhaps best known for calling immigration authorities on protesters during a House proceeding on a bill that cracked down on so-called “sanctuary cities.” As party chair, Rinaldi routinely amplified attacks against Phelan and other more-moderate members, castigating the speaker for allowing Democrats to chair a handful of House committees and accusing him of being drunk while presiding over House business last year. He also offered key support to Paxton during last year’s impeachment proceedings, and blasted Phelan and other House Republicans in the wake of Paxton’s acquittal by the Texas Senate. As the civil war escalated in the last months of 2023, some in the Texas GOP worried that Rinaldi had made the party too reliant on contributions from Dunn and Wilks. Rinaldi’s decision to endorse and campaign for challengers to fellow Republicans during this year’s primaries also drew the ire of some in the Texas GOP who said party leaders should be more neutral. Tensions over Rinaldi’s chairmanship came to a head late last year, following a scandal involving white supremacists and antisemites in the Texas GOP. In October, The Texas Tribune reported that Jonathan Stickland, then the leader of Dunn and Wilks’ main political action committee, Defend Texas Liberty, had hosted prominent white supremacist and Adolf Hitler admirer Nick Fuentes for several hours. Rinaldi was also spotted outside the office building while Fuentes was inside, but denied knowing he was there and said he would never meet with Fuentes. The meeting prompted Phelan and 60 other GOP House members to demand that fellow Republicans redirect donations from Defend Texas Liberty to pro-Israel charities. Roughly half of the Texas GOP’s executive committee also called on the party to cut ties with Defend Texas Liberty. Amid the scandal — and subsequent reporting by the Tribune that uncovered deeper ties between white supremacists and Defend Texas Liberty — Rinaldi routinely attacked the PAC’s critics, including Phelan. Earlier this year, the Tribune reported that Rinaldi was simultaneously working as an attorney for Wilks, one of Defend Texas Liberty’s two main funders. Responding to the scandals in November, the Texas GOP’s executive committee narrowly defeated a measure that would have banned the party from associating with Holocaust deniers, neo-Nazis and antisemites. Myers, the party’s VP who is running to replace Rinaldi, supported the measure. Rinaldi did not vote, but downplayed the need for it by saying that antisemitism was only a problem on the left. A watered-down version of the measure was adopted earlier this year. Dunn and Wilks meanwhile spun off a new political action committee, Texans United For a Conservative Majority, that backed a slate of successful candidates in the 2024 GOP primaries — giving the billionaires perhaps more power than ever over the Texas GOP and state Legislature.)

CHICAGO TRIBUNE
— FRONT PAGE WITH BIG PICTURE: Behind the wheel without a license: Migrants buying cars to make a life in Chicago – NELL SALZMAN (COMMENT: Where did the money come to buy these cars? I bought my first car in 1964 when I was 16. It was a 1958 Chevrolet Bel Air. The money came from what I had earned doing yard work and delivering newspapers the previous 2 years.)
https://www.chicagotribune.com/2024/03/17/behind-the-wheel-without-a-license-migrants-buying-cars-to-make-a-life-in-chicago/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Behind a West Loop migrant shelter, dozens of cars sit without license plates. Several of their owners stand nearby, acknowledging they lack licenses to drive them. But they increasingly have been driving, according to a Tribune analysis of police data that suggests sharp rises in arrests among migrants for breaking traffic laws. The analysis found many are now being detained in Chicago each week for driving- or vehicle-related infractions, roughly at five times the rate from last summer. “Start where you are. Do what you can. Use what you have,” said Jose Fernandez, 30 from Trujillo, Venezuela. It’s difficult to know for sure how many migrants are charged or ticketed because police don’t keep precise data on when they arrest asylum-seekers. But what is often available in arrest data — the arrestees’ country of birth — suggests that driving- and vehicle-related offenses have become the primary reason migrants end up being detained by officers. The Tribune focused on arrestees born in Venezuela because census figures show few native Venezuelans lived in Chicago before Texas Gov. Greg Abbott began busing migrants north 18 months ago, and city officials say that Venezuelans make up the majority of the over 37,000 migrants who’ve arrived since.)

— Parents say suburban Chicago school’s actions are insufficient after violent fight – Charlie De Mar
https://www.cbsnews.com/chicago/news/suburban-chicago-school-safety-actions-violent-fight/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Parents at a west suburban high school rallied Wednesday night, saying several violent fights in the school have them concerned about student safety. They took their concerns to the Wheaton/Warrenville School District 200 Board Wednesday night, and district leaders told them they have made changes to address the issue. Ever since a fight in a bathroom at Wheaton Warrenville South High School two weeks ago, which led to charges, changes have been made to bathroom policy and hall pass procedures. But students and parents say the changes are simply reactive. Wearing purple – the color used to support victims of domestic violence – parents stood up for their students outside Wheaton Warrenville South. Organizers said each flag they planted on the school lawn represents a disciplinary incident that occurred last year. “The concern is that disciplinary issues aren’t being handled appropriately,” said parent Amy Erkenswick. “The concern is we don’t have great communication with our school leadership.” “Safety is the number one goal,” said parent Brooke Gennaro. The issue came to a tipping point after a student was injured in a fight in a high school bathroom on Feb. 28. Video of the incident was posted online. “I want to know – how did we get to a place where our kids disregard their fellow students and resort to violence?” parent Rachel Padron said at the school board meeting. Since the brutal attack, two students have been criminally charged as minors. There have also been changes to high school bathroom policies – including more supervision – but students who spoke at the school board meeting Wednesday said the adjustments do not address the violence. “Locking down bathrooms doesn’t curb situations that lead to violence, or the violence itself,” said senior Nicolas Graham. “Rather, it just stops ordinary students from going to the bathroom.” “I think they were very reactive, and what we would like to see is a more proactive approach,” added Erkenswick after the meeting. “I don’t think limited bathrooms is reasonable or sustainable solution.” Meanwhile at the school board meeting, surrounded by his family, eighth-grade student Tyler Anderson shared his experience of being physically disciplined by a coach and teacher at the school. The Andersons said the teacher is still with the district. “I don’t know why he thought he needed to use his hands to discipline me,” Tyler said. “Our intent is to come tonight with hearts that are sad, and illuminate these policies,” added his mother, Lisa Anderson, “because if we don’t speak, things aren’t going to change,” Leaders at the high school started the night highlighting the positives of the school and its students. Consistent with policy, the school board did not respond to any of the public comments made Wednesday night.)

WHEATON PATCH
— ‘Vaping, Drugs, Countless Fights’: D200 Parents, Students Speak Out. A large crowd gathered at Wednesday’s board meeting to speak out about what many say is an ongoing problem with violence in the district. – Lisa Marie Farver
https://patch.com/illinois/wheaton/vaping-drugs-countless-fights-d200-parents-students-speak-out
(FROM THE ARTICLE: More than a dozen parents and students took to the podium at Wednesday’s District 200 board of education meeting to share their concerns about student safety and transparency within the district after reports of violence in bathrooms at Wheaton Warrenville South High School. Before the meeting, a group of parents gathered outside the school holding signs with phrases that included, “We are speaking. Listen!” and “Safe Schools, Strong Communities.” Amy Erkenswick, one of the District 200 parents who organized the rally, told Patch she and other parents would like to see “more communication, more transparency” from the district, along with a “consistent [disciplinary and safety] structure across the district.” The rally and outcry for change was prompted by a Feb. 28 fight at Wheaton Warrenville South High School that left a teen boy unconscious. His mother told Patch in early March that he had a “concussion and contusions” after the incident. Outside the school, the group had also planted 270 purple flags, which they said represented 270 disciplinary actions (suspensions and expulsions) that were reported at Wheaton Warrenville South in 2023. At Wednesday’s meeting, some speakers addressed safety concerns related to the fight, while others shared their own stories. Some of these stories included claims of violence and harassment at other District 200 schools. . .Padron said, “with stall doors missing, locks destroyed as well as vaping, drugs and countless fights.” Parent Brook Gennaro said the district’s “lack of accountability and leadership breeds dangerous complacency.” Daneel Gonzales, a district parent and school aide, mentioned the email Wheaton Warrenville South Principal Lorie Campos shared with parents after the Feb. 28 fight. In the email, Campos mentioned “physical altercations” between students and urged parents “not assume that rumors concerning student injuries are accurate.” She said the incidents have been “targeted.” Gonzales said she was unsure whether she should send her son to school, as she was unclear whether the rumor was a reference to physical violence or a “potential school shooting.” Meanwhile, some parents and students have told Patch that there have been unprovoked attacks throughout the district. Gonzales said she has seen “staff members who get physical.” She added, “It’s disappointing…my concerns that I’ve voiced… I don’t know where they go.”)

In 1974, when I was 25 years old, when IRS promoted me to a GS-12 (currently $97,079/year) job in the Loop, I immediately bought a studio condo in the Outer Drive East building so that I could walk to/from work and graduate evening business classes at Loyola. I did that for 2 years and then traded that condo into the building’s developer for a one bedroom condo and walked to/from work and graduate evening accounting courses at DePaul. I did that for 2 years and then got married, sold that one bedroom condo and bought a home in Wheaton with my wife.)

— All my female GAO superiors were Democrat, liberal, feminist, Jewish, and younger than me. They all took many adverse actions against me. All during the almost 18 years that I worked for GAO, at least 1 of my 3 Chicago office superiors was Jewish. During my last 8 years there, 2 of those 3 were Democrat, liberal, feminist, Jewish, and younger than me. They always ranked me in the bottom half of my coworkers for pay-for-performance purposes. They ignored/dismissed/belittled my earning a) job-related professional certifications in 1990, 1994, 1996, and 1997 and b) a job-related master’s degree in 1997. They succeeded in forcing me to take their early retirement “offer” in 1997 when I was 49 years old. It is called political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, age discrimination, religious discrimination, and national origin discrimination.

— It’s a lot of money to spend on, let’s be honest, for the crumbs of Illinois state government. But that’s what is going on in three Illinois House districts in southeastern Illinois where a trio of hard-right Illinois Freedom Caucus members are being challenged in the Republican primary. Almost $600,000 has been raised on the three races just since Jan. 1, and more contributions and expenditures are being reported nearly every day, and likely will be until the March 19 primary. – Tom Kacich (COMMENT: Since 2000, in Republican primaries on ballots in my precinct, my critics/opponents have always opposed conservative candidates.)

https://www.americanthinker.com/blog/2024/03/california_to_help_undocumented_immigrants_purchase_homes.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: California Assemblymember Joaquin Arambula has introduced Assembly Bill 1840, aimed at expanding home ownership opportunities for “undocumented immigrants” in the state. The bill would make illegal aliens eligible for first time homebuyer loans. The bill, as originally introduced earlier this year, was aimed at low- and middle-income citizens, but Arambula apparently decided that was too exclusive, and therefore recently proposed his updated version. This is yet another kick in the shorts to citizens, especially since the formerly Golden State has the highest priced housing — and by far the most homeless people — in the nation. California is already the only state to fund comprehensive health care for undocumented immigrants.)

https://dailycaller.com/2024/03/09/naked-man-lgbtq-flag-casually-strolls-down-street-seattle-washington/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: A naked man waved a rainbow flag while strolling through vehicular traffic on a street in Seattle, Washington, a video showed. The unidentified man appeared oblivious of his immediate environment as he blithely strolled through traffic, with cars appearing to wait for or make their way past him, according to the video, shared Saturday on Twitter by radio host Jason Rantz of KTTH Radio under the caption, “Seattle is thriving.” The incident appeared to have occurred in the Ravenna neighborhood of Seattle, according to another video by the journalist Andy Ngo. The video showed what seemed to be the same man draped in the flag and lying down spreadeagled in the middle of the road, obstructing vehicular traffic. “And this why here is why my child won’t step foot in this city! It used to be a fun place to go down and explore but it’s no longer a safe place for families,” a user reacted to the video. “Exposing the little things in Seattle,” replied another. “So many beautiful cities in our great country have been destroyed… Very sad,” another said. Another wondered why laws against indecent exposure were not enforced. A user seemed to imply that the person was experiencing a mental health crisis. It is not known whether the individual was homeless or unsheltered. First-time homelessness spiked across the country between 2021 and 2022 by 25%, according to the United States Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). By 2023, a record 653,100-odd persons “were experiencing homelessness on a single night in 2023 – a 12% increase (or about 70,650 more people) from 2022,” the HUD stated. Washington was one of the five states with the largest increases in homelessness, according to HUD data. A posse of naked men cycled through some of Seattle‘s streets as part of Seattle’s LGBTQ+ Pride Parade in full view of children last June, according to several reports. The “all ages” parade to “Challenge Body Shame/Build Self Esteem” and create “Pride for Every Body” drew criticism as it crossed a line for some, according to the Washington Times. “[T]he role of the Seattle Police Department [SPD] at this particular event was to assure the safety and security of the overall event – not to regulate activities that are better left to parade organizers and the permit process,” the SPD reportedly said in a statement regarding the event to the fact-checking website, Snopes.)

— Democrat and RINO leaders ever-increasingly hint/imply/argue/shout that if minorities and/or females are underrepresented in certain jobs, it is because Whites and/or men discriminate against them. But what about bad jobs? Minorities and/or females were underrepresented in all the jobs that I had because all the jobs that I had were bad jobs. Few if any minorities and females want to do yard work, deliver newspapers, wash dishes, clean golf shoes, chip slag, pump gasoline, deliver mail, work on an automobile assembly line, sell tires, automotive services, and major appliances, pump more gasoline, collect delinquent taxes, or audit federal agencies. It was extremely difficult for my employers to recruit and retain qualified minorities and females for the bad jobs that I had because with Affirmative Action and DEI, the minorities and females they wanted to hire, retain, and promote got better jobs elsewhere. Consequently, my employers gave the minorities and females who they were able to hire and retain tremendous preference over me.

In 1997, when I was 49 years old, all three of my GAO superiors were Jewish and two of them were women. They succeeded in forcing me to take their early retirement “offer” and they gave my job and my preferred corner office to my Democrat Black subordinate.

LOCAL 3 NEWS
— A judge issued a new order that has allowed four candidates in Catoosa County to re-qualify for the May 21 ballot through the election commission. This is in response to the Catoosa County GOP continuing to deny those candidates a spot on the republican primary ballot. “If you want people to continue believing in the ability of the Republican party, then you have to make sure that they are voting in a way that’s consistent with our platform,” said Georgia Republican Assembly President Nathaniel Darnell. (COMMENT: Political parties exist to help elect candidates who can and will defend and advance their platform. The Republican Party platform is conservative. The RNC and Republican state, county, township, and ward party organizations should stop candidates from running as Republicans if they reject planks in the Republican Party platform. Far too many candidates who have run as Republicans on ballots in my precinct reject far too many planks in the Republican Party platform. Most commonly, they reject the personal responsibility, traditional marriage and family, right to life, immigration, illegal drugs, Second Amendment, and/or equal opportunity (no race or gender based preference giving) planks.)

To give preference to those who are liberal/moderate, minority, female, younger, LGBTQ, veteran, non-Protestant, non-German American, and/or have ancestors who have not been in America for a long time is to discriminate against those who are conservative, White, male, older, heterosexual, non-veteran, Protestant, German American, and/or have ancestors who have been in America for a long time.)

AMERICAN THINKER
— The End of Assimilation – Robert Weissberg
https://www.americanthinker.com/articles/2024/03/the_end_of_assimilation.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The deeper problem is that nearly all illegals arrive embracing values against core American principles. They are “aliens” both legally and in terms of our political culture. Modern immigration is wholly unlike that of the earliest days, when most immigrants were of English ancestry and quickly integrated into society. Today, by contrast, those flooding into the United States arrive from almost every nation on the planet, including places like El Salvador, Kazakhstan, India, Ghana, China, Syria, Cuba, and Vietnam. Those newly arrived Muslims clustering in places like Dearborn, Mich. have altered the political landscape thanks to their vociferous support for Hamas, and this new voice may be a harbinger of future Balkanization. No precise definition of America’s political culture exists, but central is patriotism — subordinating all loyalties to national identity. As Teddy Roosevelt put it in 1907, “there can be no divided allegiance here. … We have room for but one flag, the American flag. … We have room for but one language here, and that is the English language … and we have room for but one sole loyalty, and that is a loyalty to the American people.” Further add the values explicitly embedded in the Constitution: the rule of law; the rights of free speech and freedom of religion; freedom from government tyranny; the primacy of individual, not group rights and similar rights vital to ordered liberty. Further add elections, not violence, to settle disputes. To be sure, this catalogue can be murky, and exceptions exist, but at their core, “American political values” are well understood. Alas, these values are exceedingly rare in third-world countries, the overwhelming source of today’s illegals.)
— Biden administration has new term for illegal aliens – Eric Utter (COMMENT: When were you a newcomer and for how long were you treated as one? I transferred from IRS to GAO in 1980 when I was 31 years old. My Democrat GAO superiors, supervisors, coworkers, and subordinates never stopped treating me like I was a newcomer, that is, like I lacked relevant work experience, education, professional certifications and licenses, etc. They ignored/dismissed/belittled the fact a) that what I did working for IRS for almost 9 years was very similar to what I did for GAO, b) that I had earned an MBA from Loyola in 1976, c) that I had passed the CPA examination on my first attempt in 1979, d) that I earned a master’s degree in accounting from DePaul in 1980, e) that I passed the Certified Internal Auditor examination on my first attempt in 1981, and f) that I became a licensed CPA in 1981. They would not have done that if I had been a Democrat, minority, female, veteran, and/or younger.)

I had completed only 3 graduate evening business courses at Loyola when I was promoted in 1972, 7 in 1973, and 11 in 1974. But in my defense, I did earn an MBA from Loyola in 1976. I passed the CPA examination on my first attempt in 1979. I earned a master’s degree in accounting from DePaul in 1980. I passed the Certified Internal Auditor examination on my first attempt and became a licensed CPA in 1981. If I had been a Democrat, minority, female, and/or veteran, IRS would have promoted me into its Senior Executive Service (currently $191,900/year) before I was 40 in 1988.)

I graduated from Crete-Monee High School in 1966. 10 years later, in 1976, I was earning $103,549/year in today’s dollars. I had earned a bachelor’s degree in management from NIU in 1970. I had earned an MBA from Loyola in 1976. I owned a one bedroom condo in downtown Chicago, a town home in University Park, a 1972 Corvette, and a 1962 Chevrolet Bel Air.

FORBES
— All during the almost 30 years that I worked for the Democrats who ran the federal government (GAO 1980-1997, IRS 1971-1980, and Post Office 1966-1969), they gave preference big time to their employees who were Democrat, and especially to those who were minority, female, younger, veteran, non-Protestant, non-German American, and/or had ancestors who had not been in America for a long time. It is called political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, and age discrimination.)

PEW RESEARCH
— Who Are You? The Art and Science of Measuring Identity – SCOTT KEETER, ANNA BROWN AND DANA POPKY (COMMEMT: I should write a book about my critics/opponents who use their targets’ demographics against their targets the most. I would focus on those who target those who are conservative, Republican, White, male, older, non-veteran, Protestant, German American, and/or have ancestors who have been in America for a long time. I would focus on those who target those who share their own demographics to curry favor with those who do not share their demographics.)
https://www.pewresearch.org/methods/2024/02/12/who-are-you-the-art-and-science-of-measuring-identity/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Our main religion question asks respondents to choose from 11 groups that encompass 97% of the U.S. public: eight religious groups and three categories of people who don’t affiliate with a religion. Other, less common faiths are measured by respondents writing in their answer. Our questions have evolved in response to a rise in the share of Americans who do not identify with any religion and to the growing diversity in the country’s population. (Chapter 1) Measuring income is challenging because it is both sensitive and sometimes difficult for respondents to estimate. We ask for a person’s “total family income” the previous calendar year from all sources before taxes, in part because that may correspond roughly to what a family computed for filing income taxes. To reduce the burden, we present ranges (e.g., “$30,000 to less than $40,000”) rather than asking for a specific number. (Chapter 2) We ask about political party affiliation using a two-part question. People who initially identify as an independent or “something else” (instead of as a Republican or Democrat) and those who refuse to answer receive a follow-up question asking whether they lean more to the Republican Party or the Democratic Party. In many of their attitudes and behaviors, those who only lean to a party greatly resemble those who identify with it. (Chapter 3) Our gender question tries to use terminology that is easily understood. It asks, “Do you describe yourself as a man, a woman or in some other way?” Amid national conversation on the subjects, gender and sexual orientation are topics on the cutting edge of survey measurement. (Chapter 4) In part because we use U.S. Census Bureau estimates to statistically adjust our data, we ask about race and Hispanic ethnicity separately, just as the census does. People can select all races that apply to them. In the future, the census may combine race and ethnicity into one question. (Chapter 5) A person’s age tells us both where they fall in the life span, indicating what social roles and responsibilities they may have, and what era or generation they belong to, which may tell us what events in history had an effect on their political or social thinking. We typically ask people to report just the year of their birth, which is less intrusive than their exact date of birth. (Chapter 6)

— The myth of meritocracy – Yvonne Abraham (COMMENT: What are your successes in life? What do your critics/opponents attribute your successes in life to? My critics/opponents attribute my successes in life to my benefitting tremendously from discrimination against those who are minority, female, younger, veteran, unmarried, parents, LGBTQ, non-Protestant, non-German American, and/or those whose ancestors have not been in America for a long time. In my defense, I stress that neither of my parents attended college. My father was only the first of my ancestors to earn a high school diploma. He worked in the office of a nasty chemical plant on the east side of Chicago Heights. He almost always worked second jobs to pay the family’s bills. He died suddenly when he was 47 and I was 21. My mother never attended high school and never worked outside of the home until after my father died. Because of the aforesaid, I took college preparatory courses in high school. I got and ACT score of 24. I graduated in the upper 20% of my 1966 Crete-Monee High School class. I worked my way through college. I earned a bachelor’s degree and three master’s degrees. I earned six professional certifications. I earned a professional license. I should write a book about my critics/opponents. I would focus on those whose parents are/were rich. Who bought them cars. Who paid for their college expenses. Who got them good jobs.)

— A quarter of United Methodist churches in U.S. have left during split (COMMENT: In 1961, when I was 13 years old and in 8th grade at Trinity Lutheran Grade School in Crete ( https://www.trinitycrete.org/ and https://ilhs.org/ ), the church’s split had a tremendous impact on me. The pastor succeeded in dumping the Missouri Synod for the Wisconsin Synod. My father was one of the Church Elders who led an unsuccessful fight to stay with the Missouri Synod. To stay with the Missouri Synod, my parents transferred to Hope Lutheran in Park Forest. Since 1847, all my ancestors had always been Missouri Synod Lutheran. On my father’s side, they all had all graduated from Trinity Lutheran Grade School in Crete. But in 1962, I graduated from a newly formed extremely small 8th grade at Hope Lutheran Grade School in Park Forest. The church split created many divisions between those who stayed with the Missouri Synod and those who joined the Wisconsin Synod. The split ended big annual family reunions in Crete and Grant Park that had been organized by both my father’s and mother’s parents.)

— How long do you need to save to buy a home in Chicago? 4 years, experts say. – Elvia Malagón (COMMENT: Back in the good old days, that is, back in the 1970s, it took me only 25 months to earn and save enough to buy a new town home in University Park — 15 months working for IRS, 18 months working part-time for the Firestone Store in Chicago Heights, and 7 months working full-time for that store before that. During that time, I earned and saved enough to also buy a new 1972 Corvette in 1971 and to pay for graduate evening business courses at Loyola in 1972.)

CRAIN’S CHICAGO BUSINESS
— Chicago has one of the largest income inequality gaps in the country – Jack Grieve (COMMENT: To remedy that income inequality, in 1997 when I was 49 years old, my Democrat GAO superiors forced me to take their early retirement “offer” and they gave my job to my Black subordinate. In today’s dollars, my annual income dropped by $84,910/year or 57%. In today’s dollars, my GAO salary was $150,075/year. My Civil Service Retirement System pension is only $65,165/year or only 43% of what my GAO salary was. Further, to remedy that income inequality, in 1980 when I was 31 years old, my Democrat GAO superiors forced me to take a pay cut to transfer from IRS to GAO. In today’s dollars, my income dropped by $22,996/year or 21%. In today’s dollars, my IRS salary was $110,020/year. My GAO salary was only $87,024/year or only 79% of what my IRS salary was. According to Democrats and RINOs, I have always been overpaid.)
https://www.chicagobusiness.com/economy/chicago-has-10th-highest-income-inequality-us
(FROM THE ARTICLE: A household in Chicago must bring home an annual salary of at least $149,219 to be among the city’s top 20% of earners. On the other hand, any household earning less than $27,255 is in the bottom quintile bracket. That means the city’s top one-fifth of earners make at least 5.47 times as much as the bottom one-fifth of earners.)

Because I am a federal retiree, the federal government pays 72% of my and my wife’s healthcare insurance.)

I would not have bought that car if my 1969 Dodge Charger SE had not been stolen. I had worked for IRS for only 4 months. My salary was $54,728/year in today’s dollars. I had worked for the Firestone Store in Chicago Heights part-time for 7 months and full-time for 7 months before that.)

They are blamed for all the losses that Republicans suffer during and after they are chairmen. I served as the chairman of TAPROOT Republicans of Illinois 2005-2012. I should write a book about those who have blamed me and my GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters the most for losses that Republican candidates on ballots in my precinct suffered since 2005. I would focus on the candidates who suffered losses and their political consultants, major donors, fundraisers, pollsters, campaign managers, campaign staff members, and campaign volunteers. I would focus on leaders of the Illinois Republican Party, DuPage County Republican Central Committee, Milton Township Republican Organization, and Illinois Center Right Coalition. I would focus on conservative and religious leaders and activists.)

— Your Accounting Career Plan (COMMENT: In retrospect, with benefit of hindsight, if I could do it over again, I would have overcome my fear of not being able to pass the CPA examination much sooner than I did. I would have majored in accounting instead of management at UIC, NIU, and Loyola and I would have done things much sooner than I did. As it was, I did not earn an MBA from Loyola until I was 27 in 1976. I did not take and pass the CPA examination until I was 30. I did not earn a master’s degree in accounting from DePaul until I was 31. I did not take and pass the Certified Internal Auditor examination and become a licensed CPA until I was 32. But by then, because of my bad demographics, I was much “too old” to have a successful career in accounting. I did not take more than one graduate evening course at a time at Loyola and DePaul because of financial limitations and time limitations. IRS did not offer me a job until I was 22 and it was as a “Revenue Officer” job instead of a “Revenue Agent” job because I had not taken enough accounting courses.)
