WASHINGTON EXAMINER
— Bernie Sanders: Trump ‘is a racist’ – Keith Koffler
https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/news/bernie-sanders-trump-is-a-racist
— Law enforcement, media changed standards for Trump – Byron York (DIERSEN: If you are a Trump-supporter, the more demographics that you share with Trump, a) the more likely that Trump-haters will accuse you of being a White supremacist, Nazi, KKK member, hater, racist, sexist, bigot, and even worse things and therefore, b) the more reason why you should always wear a body camera.)
https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/opinion/columnists/byron-york-law-enforcement-media-changed-standards-for-trump
(FROM THE ARTICLE: One of the more unfortunate effects of the Trump-Russia investigation — and there have been many — is the weakening of traditional standards of argument and proof in the public debate over allegations that the Trump campaign conspired with Russia to fix the 2016 election. (Just for the record: It didn’t.) In particular, angry disputes about the president have done terrible harm to the principle that an investigator, be it a journalist or a prosecutor, should meet at least some standard of proof before leveling an accusation.)

— Suburban Yard Becomes ‘Lake Michigan’ After Recent Rain, Homeowner Says – Chris Coffey (DIERSEN: I should write a book about Wheaton’s approval of a grossly inadequate lot drainage plan for the four-home Cove Court cul-de-sac that I live in. Wheaton’s failure to require the developer to install six instead of only two  storm sewer inlets and to properly connect four subterranean drainage lines to the city’s storm sewer system has a) forced me to pay for all nine of my home’s downspouts to be directly connected to the city’s storm sewer system and b) to spend hundreds of hours and thousands of dollars to properly connect two subterranean drainage lines, to install many storm sewer inlets, and to install lengthy French drains. As time goes on, a) more and more and more surface storm water and subterranean storm water flows onto and into my lot, b) more and more and more often my massive lot drainage improvements are overloaded, and c) more and more and more often that my sump pump runs. The cul-de-sac is a watershed area that was formerly used as a septic field for homes on the west side of Golf Lane and the north side of Frazier Court. Of course, the aforesaid dramatically depresses home values in the cul-de-sac.)

FORBES
— How to Protect Yourself Against Job Discrimination as a Veteran – Tom Spiggle (DIERSEN: The federal government protects its employees who are Democrat, minority, female, and/or veteran. The federal government gets rid of its employees who are Republican, White, male, and/or non-veteran who did not make GS-13 (currently $98,198) by age 25, GS-14 (currently $116,040) by age 30, GS-15 (currently $136,495) by age 35, and Senior Executive Service (currently $165,500) by age 40. Extremely few federal employees make the aforesaid promotion deadlines.) 
https://www.forbes.com/sites/tomspiggle/2019/05/28/how-to-protect-yourself-against-job-discrimination-as-a-veteran/#7880184f5475
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Most people are aware that federal law bars discrimination on the job due to gender, race and religion, but they often don’t realize that it also covers current and former members of the military as well. With fewer Americans serving in the military today than in past decades, this kind of discrimination can be subtle, taking the form of assumptions that civilians make about military life and service. That could come from recruiters who ignore relevant job experience — like leading a caravan of military vehicles in the desert when hiring for a job driving a commercial truck. It could come in the form of an innocent-seeming question during a job interview about whether you suffered from post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) after completing a tour in Afghanistan. Or it could be the more obvious refusal to reinstate you at your old job after regular service with the National Guard. Several federal laws aim to prevent those kinds of situations. Here’s a look at the laws that protect those who come back from their service as they reenter the workforce.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: Financial advisers and institutions typically counsel someone aim to have 70% to 80% of their pre-retirement paycheck. Another estimate is roughly 75%, according to T. Rowe Price, because living expenses go down, taxes will likely be reduced and there won’t be a need to put so much toward retirement savings anymore.)

That directly resulted in my accepting a job offer from IRS. What would Lipnic say about that? In 1997, when I was 49 years old, the Democrats who ran GAO forced me to take their early retirement “offer” a) because I had been an active member in a class action lawsuit since 1988 when I was 40 years old that charged them with reverse discrimination, age discrimination, and retaliation and b) because I had always complained about political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, age discrimination, and retaliation.

I have more free time because I am no longer a TAPROOT Republicans of Illinois chairman, Wheaton Chamber of Commerce Government Affairs Committee member, Milton Township Republican Central Committee webmaster, Illinois Center Right Coalition Steering Committee member, American Association of Political Consultants Midwest Chapter board member, GAO employee, etc. I have more free time because I have no debts, a Civil Service Retirement System pension, and retirement savings.

ABOVE THE LAW
— Kamala Harris’s Equal Pay Plan Acknowledges The Weakness Of Lawsuits It feels like an admission that courts cannot close the disparity. – ELIE MYSTAL (DIERSEN: If you are considering filing a lawsuit, you should consider your “jury appeal.” The less “jury appeal” that you have, the more likely that you will be denied your 7th Amendment rights, that the defendant will be granted summary judgment, and that you will lose. Ever-increasingly, the more of the following that you are, the less “jury appeal” that you have: Trump supporter, Protestant, conservative, patriotic, Republican, American, White, male, older, non-poor, gun owner, German American, draft avoider, and if your ancestors have been in America for a long time.)

EUREKA TIMES STANDARD
— On ‘Seeking: digital natives’ – ANGELA COPELAND (DIERSEN: How long have you had your email address? I have had diersen@aol.com for more than 24 years, since January of 1995 when I was 46 years old. How long have you owned a computer system? I have owned a computer system since 1982 when I was 34 years old. While I worked for GAO during the 1990s, before GAO provided its staff with computer systems, I bought several computer systems and used them in my office. I published Milton Township Republican Central Committee’s (MTRCC) first website in 2000 and served as MTRCC’s webmaster 2000-2004 and 2008-2010. I published Milton Township’s first website in 2001 and served as its webmaster 2001-2003. I served as Illinois Center Right Coalition’s webmaster 2004-2006. I have been sending out GOPUSA ILLINOIS emails since 2000 and publishing copies of them at www.gopillinois.com since 2005. I have been on Facebook since January of 2009.)
https://www.times-standard.com/2019/05/26/career-corner-seeking-digital-natives/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: This term makes sense at first. But, the definition of a digital native, according to Dictionary.com, is “a person born or brought up during the age of digital technology and therefore familiar with computers and the internet from an early age.” Those who are turning forty this year probably started to use the internet around 1995, when they were sophomores in high school — if they were lucky. That was in the time of the dial-up modem and America Online. Their parents were ahead of the game to have a home computer then. In all likelihood, they really began to use computers when they went to college. It should be noted that I’m omitting early Mac computers and things like Atari for the purposes of this column. I’m talking about the real-deal internet. Digital natives had the internet in elementary school or middle school. Wikipedia says digital natives “are often used to describe the digital gap in terms of the ability of technological use among people born from 1980 onward and those born before.” By this definition, a digital native would be 38 years old or younger today. Let that soak in. A job description that specifically requests that someone is 38 years old or less. Why does this happen? I don’t have the answer for you. I’d like to know this myself. I thought that the idea of a job posting was to hire someone with a certain skillset rather than a certain age. I also heard this rumor that discriminating on the basis of age when hiring is not allowed. In fact, I think there may be something called the Age Discrimination in Employment Act.)
