ALTON TELEGRAPH
— Democrats say “Lawmakers want review of teacher licensing standards.” (COMMENT: I became a licensed CPA in 1981 when I was 32 years old. I had earned an MBA from Loyola in 1976. I had passed the CPA examination on my first attempt in 1979. I had worked for IRS for more than 9 years, the last 5 1/2 years of which at the GS-12 Step 1-5 Levels, currently $92,279-$104,583/yr. I had earned a master’s degree in accounting from DePaul in 1980. I had worked for GAO for 1 year. And I had passed the Certified Internal Auditor (CIA) examination on my first attempt in 1981. My Democrat GAO superiors were furious. None of my Democrat coworkers who were minority, female, and/or younger who they wanted to promote over me had anywhere near as many qualifications. So, to justify their not promoting me, a) they kept me off audits of IRS, b) they gave me bad job assignments, unfair performance expectations, and unfair performance appraisals, c) they turned my superiors, supervisors, coworkers, and subordinates against me, d) they assigned me to supervise their most problematic employees, and e) they wasted, ignored, dismissed, belittled, demonized, denigrated, and condemned what I had learned earning an MBA, passing the CPA examination, working for IRS, earning a master’s degree in accounting, working for GAO, and passing the CIA examination. I should write a book about the aforesaid.)

DUPAGE COUNTY
— Democrats say “DuPage County Seeks Resident Input on Proposed Precinct Maps.” How do these proposed changes impact your Republican Precinct Committeeman? I have been the Republican Milton Township Precinct 9 Committeeman since 1999. The new proposed precinct map puts me into a new Precinct 19. It has 1,033 registered voters while my current Precinct 9 has 497. The new eastern borders are Warrenville Road, Plamondon Road, and the Chicago Golf Club. The northern border remains Roosevelt Road. The new western borders are Crest Street, Aurora Way, Foothill Drive, and Orchard Road. The new southern borders are Weisbrook Road and Flint Creek Road. The new Precinct 19 a) takes away my voters east of Warrenville Road who were added to my Precinct 9 in 2015, b) gives back the voters west of the Prairie Path who were taken away in 2015, and c) adds voters from the current Precincts 85 (Sarah Stark) and 130 (Elizabeth Tatro). In 2015, I lost the relationships that I had built since 1999 with about 250 voters west of the Prairie Path. With this proposal, I would lose the relationships that I had built since 2015 with about 250 voters east of Warrenville Road.

ILLINOIS REVIEW
— The One Issue that Cannot Even Be Discussed – John F. Di Leo (COMMENT: How many millions of the many millions in America illegally use their false identifications to vote for Democrats?)
https://www.illinoisreview.com/illinoisreview/2023/04/opinion-the-one-issue-that-cannot-even-be-discussed.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: For it to have been an honest election – for Joe Biden to have really beaten Donald Trump 81 million to 74 million – the national participation number would have had to increase by over 22 million legitimate voters between 2016 and 2020. That’s their claim – that about 158.5 million people voted for president in 2020, even though only about 136.6 million are recorded as having voted in 2016, and 2016 was already a high. There is always a sway of a few million in the total from cycle to cycle. Sometimes it goes down a bit, sometimes it goes up a bit. The prior four presidential elections had seen 122 million, 131 million, 129 million, and then 136 million in 2016. But the total participation necessary for Joe Biden to have gotten 81 million votes in 2020 (when Donald Trump got 74 million) is 158.5 million (once you count the many votes for third parties and write-ins). And that is absolutely, statistically impossible.)

— We’re Failing Our Boys and Young Men – Jeff Szymanski (COMMENT: In your school district, how far are boys behind girls at each grade level? Why is that? I was born in 1948. If I had been born later, because of my terrible demographics (White, male, Protestant, 100% German American, and my ancestors have been in America since 1844), and because of Affirmative Action, Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion, that is, because of political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, and age discrimination, I doubt that would have found the motivation to take college preparatory courses in high school, pass the postal employment examination, graduate in the upper 20% of my class, get an ACT score of 24, work my way through college, pass the Federal Service Entrance examination, earn an MBA, pass the CPA examination, pass the Certified Internal Auditor examination, become a licensed CPA, etc.)
https://amac.us/were-failing-our-boys-and-young-men/
(FROM THE ARTICE: Facts. Girls are half a grade level or better above boys in all 50 states. Seven in 10 high school valedictorians are girls. College graduates are soon to be 2:1 women to men. Women with a college degree do not like to marry men without one. Single women are far more likely to own their own home, and they are far less likely to commit suicide. If you’re a young male in America today, particularly one without any higher education or job training, the statistics are increasingly grim. I reside in Central Florida. Retirement communities are numerous but no major colleges within an hour’s drive. Low wage service sector work, construction, and landscaping are the primary options for young men. COVID lockdowns and paying people not to work encouraged sloth nationwide. Some men never went back to gainful employment. There’s a growing population “unemployable” to a company and “unviable” to a partner. An arrest record. Tattoos on the face. A lack of meaningful work history. Too many young men are permanently closing doors to success. Small wonder that crime and drugs fill the void. There’s scarcely a traffic stop in the area where methamphetamine is not found in the vehicle. And the triple homicide by three male teenagers that made headlines last week took place just miles from here. But we’ve heard for decades and continue hearing that men have all the advantages. Who would dare utter that young men are in crisis? Who would further dare take up the cause to do something about it given how The Left might react?)

My Democrat superiors in the federal government used “up-or-out,” Affirmative Action, Diversity, Equity, and/or Inclusion to get rid of their employees a) who were Republican, White, male, non-veteran, Protestant, German American, and/or who had ancestors who had been in America for a long time and b) who they had not promoted to GS-13, currently $109,732/year by age 25; GS-14, currently $129,671/year by age 30; GS-15, currently $152,527/year by age 35; and Senior Executive Service, currently $185,300/year, by age 40.

https://www.aarp.org/work/age-discrimination/how-to-fight-back/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: File a lawsuit. Before you sue, you must have already filed a complaint with the EEOC. If you don’t hear from the EEOC after 60 days, you can file the lawsuit. If you do get a “right to sue” letter, you have just 90 days to take action. In some cases where the EEOC finds evidence of discrimination, it encourages the sides to find a solution. In other cases, it issues the right to sue letter to a worker whose case it isn’t going to handle. In some cases, the EEOC may file the lawsuit on your behalf. “If an employee feels mistreated because of their age, we are here to enforce the law,” says Ray Peeler, EEOC assistant legal counsel.)

I should write a book about them. I would focus on those who have/had lots of religious, government, political, and/or financial clout in Wheaton, Milton Township, DuPage County, and/or Illinois and have taken the most/biggest adverse actions against me.

They rejected tremendous efforts by my Democrat superiors, supervisors, coworkers, and subordinates to paint me as being a White supremacist, Nazi, KKK member, hater, racist, sexist, bigot, and even worse things. Some gave weight to the fact that racists would not have bought real estate in University Park like I did in 1972.

AMERICAN THINKER
— Transgenderism remains a mental illness – Don Fisher, Jr.
https://www.americanthinker.com/blog/2023/03/transgenderism_remains_a_mental_illness.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Of course, the fictional notion of transitioning to the other sex is complete nonsense, and up until 2013 it was accurately categorized as a mental illness by the American Psychiatric Association (A.P.A.). In that year, the DSM-5 downgraded transgenderism to “gender dysphoria,” and it’s a safe bet that the Leftists who control the A.P.A. will erase it completely in their next edition, much as they did when homosexuality was eliminated from their list of mental illnesses. That slight-of-hand was accomplished not by advances in science nor medicine, but by relentless lobbying from various pro-homosexual groups and the voting body of the A.P.A. That was the first step in getting it accepted by mainstream society, and the issue of transgenderism is following a similar path. In the following days, we’ll be lectured by the usual leftists pretending to be journalists about all the evils of allowing guns in our modern society, but criticism of transgenderism will be strictly off limits. We’ll be told that this fantasy male that Audrey Hale was becoming would have been her “authentic self,” and that any torment she suffered was the fault of a repressive and bigoted society that cannot accept the amazing people who discover their need to change. No, they’ll wail, it’s not the fault of those confused few whose bodies don’t match their imaginations, but rather it’s caused by everyone else who adheres to human biology and history since mankind began. For the record, being transgender or having a host of other mental illnesses doesn’t necessarily make someone a violent threat to society, and it’s not meant to imply that Ms. Hale killed others because of her apparent transgender preference. Nevertheless, being diagnosed or self-identifying as transgender makes someone mentally ill and no amount of leftist spin, nor brightly colored flags in a parade, can change that.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: Transgenderism is a leftist-induced mental illness that is intended to achieve two very specific ends that will empower statism: First, it destroys the family. This is overtly achieved by the groomers in and outside of schools who tell children that “we’re your family,” and more covertly achieved by making these mentally damaged people physically and emotionally incapable of having children. Second, it makes these same people utterly dependent on the government to pay for the lifelong medical costs associated with hormones and surgery.)

WASHINGTON POST
— Democrats say “The gun that divides a nation. The AR-15 thrives in times of tension and tragedy. This is how it came to dominate the marketplace – and loom so large in the American psyche.” If/when the many millions of invading citizens of foreign countries start shooting at citizens of America, they will be met with American AR-15s.
https://www.washingtonpost.com/nation/interactive/2023/ar-15-america-gun-culture-politics/
— Democrats ask “Why do Americans own AR-15s?” and says “The Washington Post and Ipsos asked nearly 400 AR-15 owners why they own the rifle.” In Illinois, under the Democrats and under the RINOs, expect that ever-increasingly, the more of the following that you are, the more that you will be presumed to be an AR-15 owner, and therefore, the more that you will be demonized, denigrated, and condemned: FOID card holder, heterosexual, conservative, Republican, White, male, older, veteran, married, non-poor, married, homeowner, Christian, Protestant, Italian American, German American, and/or if your ancestors have been in America for a long time. Ever-increasingly, the more of the aforesaid that you are, the more that Democrats and RINOs do to get rid of you once and for all.
https://www.washingtonpost.com/nation/interactive/2023/american-ar-15-gun-owners/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The survey found that AR-15 owners come from red, blue and purple states. Compared with Americans as a whole, AR-15 owners are significantly more likely to be White, male and between the ages 40 and 65. They’re also more likely to have higher incomes, to have served in the military and to be Republican. And AR-15 owners are more likely to live in states former president Donald Trump won in 2020 than adults overall. Self-defense was the most popular reason for owning an AR-15. Other popular answers included recreation, target shooting and hunting, while some pointed to owning an AR-15 as their Second Amendment right.)

— Police seek motive as Nashville school shooting captures the attention of a divided nation – Terry Castleman, Alexandra E. Petri, Kevin Rector
https://news.yahoo.com/3-children-killed-shooting-nashville-163720648.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The shooter identified as transgender, according to police. Perhaps nowhere is that war as pronounced as in Tennessee, where conservative legislators recently banned gender-affirming care for transgender youth and barred drag queens or other “male or female impersonators” from performing anywhere near children. Metro Nashville Police Chief John Drake said police were examining whether the shooter’s transgender identity was part of the motive for the shooting. “As we know more, we’ll definitely make that known, but right now we’re unsure if that actually played a role,” he said. Drake said police believed the shooter might have harbored some “resentment” for “having to go to that school,” but he did not elaborate. Police did not respond to requests for clarity around Hale’s gender identity, chosen name or pronouns.)

https://www.miamiherald.com/news/politics-government/state-politics/article273634330.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: But the measure has come under intense criticism from First Amendment advocates, who say it is a direct violation of the free speech protections in the U.S. Constitution, and from both legacy media and conservative media outlets who warn that it will open the door to a barrage of lawsuits, including against conservative talk radio hosts.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: Based on the opinion given by a former Attorney General in 1972, an opinion Mortimer referenced while addressing the board, an appropriate reaction for central committees after a boundary realignment would be continue operating with the previous boundaries regardless of the change, as those precinct committee people are, in fact, elected officials. “It may be an old opinion, but the logic is still good,” Prosecuting Attorney Mark Taylor stated in regard to the 1972 opinion. He further clarified that Idaho code explicitly states Precinct Committeemen and women are to be elected, and appointments should only be made to fill vacancies resulting from death, moving out of jurisdiction areas and the like. If an elected person has not died or moved, he explained to the public, you cannot use a boundary change to remove that person from office. He continued by stating precinct boundary changes are not justification for removing an elected person from an elected position as they do not create vacancies which need to be filled.)

https://www.journal-topics.com/articles/illinois-house-oks-bill-to-prohibit-banning-of-books-in-libraries-senate-next/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The Illinois House passed a bill last Wednesday that would prohibit libraries from banning books or other material because of partisan or doctrinal pressure, prompting strong opposition from Republicans who called it an assault on local control. . .Some Republicans, however, argued that public libraries are governed by locally elected boards, and that those boards should have the authority to decide how best to serve their communities. “I find this a complete assault on local control,” said Rep. Martin McLaughlin (R-Barrington Hills). These people volunteer as nonpartisan elected local officials, and for the state to tell a local library board, ‘listen to the professionals; follow the professionals’ – I don’t understand why we have local elections anymore if a bill like this passes.” The bill passed the House 69-39 with all of the no votes coming from Republicans.

— Democratic Party of Illinois spending in local school and library board races – Greg Bishop (COMMENT: According to Democrats, school board candidates have an “extremist political agenda” if they do NOT promote the Democrat Party platform, that is, if they do NOT promote the following: a) dependency on government and charity, b) LGBTQ, c) abortion, d) mass/illegal immigration. e) diminishment of Second Amendment rights, f) booze, gambling, pot, and other vices, and/or g) Affirmative Action, Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion, that is, CRT, 1619, BLM, reparations, and wokeism/wokeness, that is, political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, and age discrimination.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: The Democratic Party of Illinois is spending $300,000 on mailers and online campaigns for local school and library board races early next month. Democrats said in a news release they’ve identified dozens of candidates they recommend and oppose while launching a website DefendOurSchoolsIL.com. Last week, Gov. J.B. Pritzker explained why his attention is on local school board races. “There are lots of candidates who are running, Republicans or Democrats, they’re not listed on the ballots as such. What we’re trying to do is to raise awareness about the extremists that are running,” Pritzker said at an unrelated event last week.)

My precinct contains the Wheaton Warrenville School District 200 headquarters, a public grade school, and a public middle school.

(FROM THE ARTICLE: The bill, introduced by Louisiana Rep. Julia Letlow, requires schools to notify parents that they have the right to review the curriculum and school budget, inspect books and other library materials, and receive information about any violent activity in the school. The bill would also prohibit schools from selling student information. Elementary schools or schools housing grades 5-8 would be required to obtain parental consent before changing a student’s pronouns or preferred name or allowing a student to change their sex-based accommodations, like locker rooms or bathrooms.)
— Democrats say “President Biden’s nominee to head the FAA has withdrawn after Republican criticism.” I should write a book about those who have wasted my IRS work experience the most. 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. GAO audits IRS. I worked for GAO on audits of IRS for 3 years at the GS-13 Step 1-3 Levels, currently $109,732-$117,047/year.

CHICAGO CRUSADER
— Democrats say “Advocates push for tax credit aimed at increasing affordable housing.” In 1971, HUD guaranteed $30 million in loans to create University Park. If I sought a government office or a political office, my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes would hint/imply/argue/shout that I unethically bought a new town home in University Park in 1972 ( https://www.redfin.com/IL/University-Park/774-Sunset-Ct-60484/unit-5/home/23344604 ) that HUD had earmarked for Blacks.)
https://chicagocrusader.com/advocates-push-for-tax-credit-aimed-at-increasing-affordable-housing/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Lawmakers are considering bills that would create a new tax credit for affordable housing, referred to as the “Build Illinois Homes Tax Credit.” The legislation, contained in the identical House Bill 2044 and Senate Bill 1737, would mirror a federal program administered by the Illinois Housing Development Authority and Chicago Department of Housing which helps finance affordable housing across Illinois.

— Could we get the ‘banned books’ people to start caring about banned books? – Timothy P. Carney
https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/opinion/could-we-get-banned-books-people-care-banned-books
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Did you know that the 1619 Project is a banned book? This might surprise you, given that it has sold hundreds of thousands of copies, has a Hulu original series, and that governments everywhere are paying the author tens of thousands of dollars to speak about the book. Did you know that The Handmaid’s Tale is also banned? Again, this could be a confusing fact for anyone paying any attention to American media and elite culture over the past seven years. But the 1619 Project and The Handmaid’s Tale are two of the books pictured in this NPR story on banned books or the “banned book” websites to which it links. Of course, by no ordinary understanding of the word “banned” are these books banned, as evidenced that every book mentioned herein is available at every prestige bookstore, every chain bookstore, and Amazon. What’s going on is that activists have decided to change the meaning of “banned books” to include any book that has been removed from a middle school curriculum or is not stocked in a high school library. It’s normal that activists would abuse language in order to make their own issue seem more important. It’s unfortunate that this abuse of language is at the hands of people who claim to care about literacy, given that precision in language is a way in which literature can liberate and inform. It’s also lamentable that so much of the news media credulously adopts the activists’ dishonest language. NPR uncritically repeats the word “ban” more than 50 times in this story about books that obviously everyone can buy, get for free, and take out from public libraries.)

NEW YORK TIMES
— Democrats say “What It’s Like to Become a Caregiver to Your Parents in Your 20s.” My mother stayed home and raised my brother and I. She never attended high school. My father died suddenly in 1969 when he was 47 and I was 21-year-old NIU student. Potential employers were not interested in hiring me because they viewed me as being draft-bait and my demographics were terrible. In 1970, after a) earning a bachelor’s degree in management from NIU, b) getting a job working for the Firestone Store in Chicago Heights, a job that did not really require a college degree, c) moving back in with my mother and brother in Crete, and d) starting to help support them financially, I applied for a financial hardship draft deferment. Before that application was approved in 1971, a) Oldsmobile offered me a job which I accepted, b) my Firestone Store boss rudely fired me because I had accepted that job offer, and c) Oldsmobile withdrew that job offer saying that it had just agreed to stop hiring Whites to settle an EEOC complaint. Because of the aforesaid, I accepted a job offer from IRS to be a GS-7 (currently $52,002/year) Revenue Officer. I got rehired by Firestone to work part-time pumping gasoline and I continued to live with my mother and brother and to help support them financially until my mother got a better paying job in 1972. In September of 1972, I bought a new town home in University Park.)

They had a) forced me to take a $21,863/year (21%) pay cut in today’s dollars to transfer from IRS to GAO in 1980, b) gave me bad job assignments, unfair performance appraisals, and unfair performance appraisals, c) turned my superiors, supervisors, coworkers, and subordinates against me, d) assigned me to supervise their most problematic employees, e) kept me off audits of IRS except 1986-1988, f) delayed my promotions to GS-11, GS12, and GS-13 and never promoted me beyond GS-13, g) always ranked me in the bottom half of my coworkers for pay-for-performance purposes, and h) misled me to believe that they were going to let me work until I would be eligible for regular retirement when I was 55 in 2003.)

EPOCH TIMES
— House Passes Parents Bill of Rights Act – Joseph Lord
https://www.theepochtimes.com/house-passes-parents-bill-of-rights-act_5147144.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: One of the Republicans’ key goals in crafting the bill was to ensure that parents who speak out against what is being taught to their children do not face retribution from local, state, or federal authorities. “No longer will [parents] have their speech denied, or feel threatened for expressing their concerns at school board meetings,” Foxx said. The comment was in reference to a late-2021 controversy in which Attorney General Merrick Garland offered federal resources and guidance to local law enforcement to target parents who attended school board meetings. In 2021, the United States saw a deluge of concerned parents coming to school board meetings to speak out against left-wing ideology in the classroom. Many parents came to their school board to speak out against critical race theory (CRT), a highly contentious left-wing theory that holds that white people are inherently “privileged” and that non-white people are inherently oppressed. Critics of CRT note that it has its origins in the political thought of Karl Marx, the ideological founder of communism; the theory has also been criticized as racist for its efforts to reduce the individual to a member of a group on the basis of their skin color. In his remarks against the bill, Scott suggested that CRT was “an accurate recounting of our nation’s history,” and that the legislation would “punish librarians” who pushed CRT. Other parents came to school board meetings to speak out against fringe left-wing notions of sex and gender. Many left-wing activists claim that gender is a social construct and that a person can change their gender based on their feelings. One parent, Terry Newsome of Chicago, who spoke out against allowing “Gender Queer” in his kids’ school library in 2021, was later placed on a terror watch-list with no warning or further explanation.)

https://www.oann.com/newsroom/huckabee-sanders-goes-after-white-privilege-survey/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: At a mandatory training last month, a high school in Arkansas issued its teachers a poll that forced them to reject the perks that come with being White. The survey was titled “Cultural Competency Continuum: Knowledge, Behaviors, and Dispositions for Educators,” and it was handed out during an obligatory educator-led development training, according to a letter sent by John L. Colbert, Fayetteville Public Schools Superintendent. However, the unexpected teacher survey may have possibly violated Governor Sarah Huckabee Sanders’ restriction on Critical Race Theory (CRT). “My administration will not tolerate this kind of CRT and indoctrination in our public schools,” Sanders said. Photos of the four-section survey, which the group had obtained from a teacher, were tweeted by a local “Mom’s for Liberty” chapter. “This survey compels teachers to acknowledge that, if White, they are biased, racist, and privileged… The survey does not measure IF a teacher is racist and privileged but rather how far down the racist and privileged continuum their answers rate them,” tweeted the mother-run group. “If there was any question about the presence of CRT in our district, this survey removes all doubt.” The Cultural Competency Continuum survey was recently given to teachers at Fayetteville High. This survey requires “teachers to acknowledge and to continually examine the influence of race, culture, power and privilege…In the “Analyze and Align” portion, educators were asked if they renounce “any privileges that come with White racial identity” and if they “advocate for cultural competency and social justice effectively and professionally.” The “Awaken and Assess” portion questioned participants if they were cognizant of their own privileges, biases, and stereotypes. In the “Apply and Act” portion, participants were asked if they normally “monitor and manage equitable access and support services” for their students by looking at data on their gender, color, ethnicity, and language. Also, it inquired as to whether they permit pupils to raise the awareness of teachers “by questioning bias assumptions or behaviors observed in our school environment.” Additionally, the survey questioned if participating educators were “brave equity warriors.” “We’ve already reached out to the district to ensure no teacher is forced to sign this pledge. We’re making sure it doesn’t happen again. We will teach kids how to think, not what to think,” Sanders said. Sanders had announced a ban on the schooling of CRT as one of her first official acts as governor. In his letter, Colbert stated that the Arkansas Department of Education had found the survey to be in violation of this rule. “Based on this guidance, Fayetteville Public Schools will ensure this survey is not further disseminated,” Colbert said in response to angry teachers and parents. All upcoming professional development materials, he pledged, would be examined to assure the utmost compliance. Colbert later downplayed the incident, claiming that the teacher survey was only ever used as a tool for introspection and was never actually collected or made mandatory. However, this contradicted what some teachers said were instructed to them in the beginning, regarding the survey. The Fayetteville Public School District declined to give any comments or answer journalist questions.)

— Facing floods, non-white homeowners prepare, protect property – Blaine Friedlander (COMMENT: I should write a book about the many hundreds of hours and the many thousands of dollars that I have had to spend since 1984 to protect my home against storm water damage a) because Wheaton approved a grossly inadequate stormwater drainage plan for my subdivision and b) because Wheaton let the subdivision developer violate many building and construction codes.)
https://phys.org/news/2023-03-non-white-homeowners-property.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: In flood-prone areas of New York state, non-white homeowners are more likely than white homeowners to take active, sometimes-costly measures—such as finding a way to protect a furnace, a water heater or installing a sump pump—to prepare for a possible deluge, according to a new Cornell study. White respondents to a survey, the researchers learned, were generally more confident of better outcomes from dire situations and saw the possibility of a flood threat differently. Thus, people who identified as white took more low-cost actions to protect their property from flooding—but tended to stop short of expensive measures. “Most of the time for people who live in flood-prone areas, flooding is not a top-of-the-mind worry,”)

While I worked for the Democrats who ran GAO 1980-1997, all of my Democrat superiors and supervisors had children. All of them strongly painted themselves as being severely cash-strapped, education-limited, professional certification/license-limited, and/or career-limited because of their children.

— Parents, kids missing out due to lack of awareness about subsidized child care programs in NYC – Cayla Bamberger (COMMENT: My father made enough money that my mother could stay home and raise me and my brother. My critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes have always used that to demonize, denigrate, and condemn my parents and my brother and I as being undeservedly filth rich. In my father’s defense, he never made more than $50,000/year in today’s dollars, and when my brother and I were younger, he earned far less than that. He almost always worked second jobs to pay the family’s bills. Further, because my mother never attended high school, her earning potential was very limited.)

USA TODAY
— During 1973, 1974, 1975, and 1976, I went on vacations with one of my IRS coworkers to Mexico, Hawaii, Jamacia, and the Bahamas. Of course, my Democrat IRS superiors, supervisors, coworkers, and subordinates used that to paint me as being overpaid and promoted too fast. I had gotten promoted a) to GS-9, currently $63,633/year, in 1972, b) to GS-11, currently $76,990/year, in 1973, and c) to GS-12, currently $92,279/year, in 1974. They also stressed that I had a) bought a new 1972 Corvette in 1971, b) paid for graduate business and accounting courses at Loyola and DePaul 1972-1980, c) bought a new town home in University Park in 1972, d) bought a studio condo in downtown Chicago in 1974, and e) bought a one bedroom condo in downtown Chicago in 1976.

— Democrats say “Single women more likely to own homes than single men despite gender pay gap.” In 1972, when I was 24 years old and single, I bought a new town home in University Park. The down payment came from what I had earned working for IRS in Harvey collecting delinquent taxes and for the Firestone Store in Chicago Heights part-time pumping gasoline. Also, with that money, I bought a new 1972 Corvette in 1971 and starting in 1972, I paid for tuition and books for graduate business courses at Loyola. In 1974, when I was still single, because I got promoted to an IRS job in the Loop, I bought a studio condo in downtown Chicago. The down payment came from what I had earned working for IRS in Harvey, Joliet, and Chicago. In 1976, when I was still single, I bought a one bedroom condo in downtown Chicago. The down payment came from what I had earned working for IRS in the Loop. In today’s dollars, my IRS salary was $52,022/year in 1971, $63,633/year in 1972, $76,990/year in 1973, $92,279/year in 1974, $95,355/year in 1975, and $98,431/year in 1976.

https://nypost.com/2023/03/18/progressive-ny-politicians-race-bait-against-white-people/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Woke New York Democratic pols from Buffalo to Brooklyn have made racist rhetoric about white people a central pillar of their message to voters. At the local, statewide and national level, left-wing, mostly socialist, elected officials have decried without repercussion that white people live in their neighborhoods, argued they should not be eligible for certain jobs, and issued broad demonizing statements. “Anti-whiteness is the fundamental premise of the left. All that is needed to take out an institution or an individual is to publicly observe that that individual is white or that that institution (Western science, Western medicine, classical music, European art) has historically been majority white or may still be majority white today,” Heather Mac Donald, a scholar at the Manhattan Institute, told The Post. “Biden routinely says that white people have an enduring problem with racism, we represent the dark soul of the US,” Mac Donald added. Some pols, such as East New York City Councilman Charles Barron, even boast of anti-white bonafides.)

WALL STREET JOURNAL
— Alvin Bragg’s Political Charge Against Donald Trump. An indictment of a former President must be for serious offenses with indisputable evidence. – Editorial (COMMENT: GAO works for Congress. My Democrat GAO superiors forced me to take their early retirement “offer” in 1997 when I was 49 years old and took many other adverse actions against me before that. They not only knew that I would sue them in federal court because of that, they wanted me to sue them in federal court. They knew that my Republican U.S. Senators and that my Republican U.S. Representatives in Illinois, including Hastert, would not come to my defense. They knew that the Democrat-run federal courts in Illinois would deny me my 7th Amendment rights and grant GAO summary judgment, which is what they did. They knew that summary judgment would give them even more power to use Affirmative Action, Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, up-or-out, budget cuts, etc. to not hire Republicans and to get rid of their Republican employees, and especially those who share my demographics: conservative, White, male, older, non-veteran, Protestant, German American, my ancestors had been in America since 1844, etc. SEE: https://gopillinois.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/09/DiersenGAOFifthAmendedComplaint.pdf )
https://www.wsj.com/articles/alvin-braggs-political-charge-against-donald-trump-new-york-arrest-presidential-campaign-2024-election-da-charges-stormy-daniels-f5c1b6e1
(FROM THE ARTICLE: So Mr. Bragg may indict a former President for the first time in American history based on the weakest of charges. He would subject the country to a trial that would be a media circus for the ages. And he would do so running the risk that a single juror could block a guilty verdict and validate Mr. Trump’s claim that this is a political prosecution. Yes, we know, in America no one is above the law. But prosecutors use their discretion every day not to bring charges for any number of reasons. Mr. Bragg came into office vowing not to charge numerous non-violent crimes against public order. The prosecution of a former President who is again a candidate for the White House is inherently fraught with political ramifications.)

HUFFINGTON POST
— Democrats say “‘Despicable’ Pandering: Ron DeSantis Roasted For Odd Claim About His Upbringing.” I should write a book about my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes who have stressed the most a) that I lived in Crete 1948-1972, b) that my parents had me baptized as a Missouri Synod Lutheran (MSL), raised me as a MSL, and had me confirmed as a MSL, and c) that I am 100% German American.
https://www.huffpost.com/entry/ron-desantis-cultural-upbringing_n_6417dbc4e4b0fef15244c95f
(FROM THE ARTICLE: But he claimed his “cultural” background was quite different from his “geographical” one. ″[C]ulturally my upbringing reflected the working-class communities in western Pennsylvania and northeast Ohio — from weekly church attendance to the expectation that one would earn his keep,” he wrote. “This made me God-fearing, hard-working and America-loving.” NBC News notes that DeSantis’ claim stems from his parents’ “geographical” background: His father was raised in Pennsylvania, and his parents met while attending Youngstown State University in Ohio. But the governor himself never lived in either place, which just so happen to be key to any presidential ambitions.)

— Democrats say “Millennials are more likely than other generations to support a cap on personal wealth.” According to my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes, I have always had too much wealth. It started in 1966 when I was 17 years old and bought a new 1966 Pontiac Tempest Sprint with money that I earned washing dishes for the minimum wage in the basement of the S.S. Kresge in Chicago Heights. It got worse in 1967 when I bought a new 1968 Oldsmobile 442 and in 1967 and when I bought a new 1969 Dodge Charger SE in 1968 with money that I earned delivering mail for the Park Forest Post Office. It got worse in 1970 when I graduated debt-free from NIU with a bachelor’s degree in management. It got worse in 1971 when I bought a new 1972 Corvette and in 1972 when I bought a new town home in University Park with money that I earned working for IRS and working for the Firestone Store in Chicago Heights part-time.

I should write a book about those who have demonized me, denigrated me, and condemned me the most for my having benefitted from the federal government’s seniority and employee leave policies. Because of those policies, a) while I worked only part-time for the Post Office 1966-1969, I earned full-time seniority and 1 hour of sick leave for every 20 hours that I worked, b) when I started working for IRS in 1971, my unused sick leave from my postal employment was reinstated, I started earning 13 sick days a year, and I soon earned 13 vacation days a year, c) I started earning 26 vacation days a year when I was a GAO employee in 1983, and d) my Civil Service Retirement System pension in higher because my many unused sick leave days were credited as though I had worked them.)

MSNBC
— Democrats ever-increasingly use White supremacists and their victims to promote hatred against Republicans. But far worse, Democrats ever-increasingly call Republicans White supremacists. To call someone a White supremacist in America today is like calling someone a Jew in Germany during the 1930s and 1940s. That is forcing more and more and more Republicans to buy firearm and ammunition for their self-defense.

TAMPA BAY TIMES
— Democrats say “DeSantis roundtable hammers diversity programs at Florida universities. Led by the governor, members of the panel say the programs lower standards and devalue merit.” Because I am a White male, and further, because I am non-veteran, Protestant, and 100% German American, if there had been more pressure to admit minorities and females in the past, a) UIC would not have admitted me in 1966, b) NIU in 1969, c) Loyola in 1972, d) DePaul in 1976, and e) IIT in 1992. I only just barely made it into the upper 20% of my 1966 Crete-Monee High School class and my ACT score was only 24.

In retrospect, with benefit of hindsight, accounting would have my NIU and Loyola majors. Financial markets and trading was my IIT major solely because my Democrat GAO superiors assigned me to audits of federal financial industry regulators starting in 1990.
