https://www.chicagotribune.com/entertainment/ct-ent-pandemic-board-game-20200305-ujujmxok3zeqnlkrn3c7mp75r4-story.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: It was created by Matt Leacock, a former Chicago graphic designer who grew up partly in Wheaton and studied visual communication at Northern Illinois University. He’s unsure of the exact inspiration for Pandemic but notes he developed it between the SARS epidemic of 2003 and the H1N1 swine flu outbreak of 2009, with warnings about the spread of infectious diseases in the 21st century on his mind. Now 48, he lives with his family in Silicon Valley, and like everyone else, he’s intently following coronavirus news and contemplating the endgame. We spoke the other day about the legacy of his scarily prescient creation. The following has been edited and condensed for space and clarity.)

DUKE, ERNEST MORRELL AND MIMI RODMAN (DIERSEN: When I was in high school, I was not viewed as being “college material.” Neither of my outstanding parents attended college. My father was the first of his ancestors to earn a high school diploma. My mother never attended high school. I just barely made into the upper 20% of my class. My ACT score was only 24. I was 1-A for draft notwithstanding the fact that my eyesight could not be corrected to 20/20, I had partial red/green color blindness, and I had Osgood-Schlatter disease ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Osgood%E2%80%93Schlatter_disease). I spent my junior and senior years in high school and the summer in between washing dishes.)

Shields is a member of the committee. “From the Broadcast telecommunications report there are words in there: fair, reasonable, trusted, accurate, reliable […] those words scare the hell out of me. They’re subjective, and they’re in that report in a number of places,” said Shields in comments (listen to audio track at minute 16:33:13) directed to Heritage Minister of Canada Steven Guilbeault in questions about the controversial Liberal government report, titled, “Canada’s communications future: Time to act.”)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: The Media Research Center (MRC), a media watchdog in the United States, told LifeSiteNews that the report behind the Trudeau government’s call for requiring news websites and social media to obtain a government license to operate in Canada was “terrifying.” “Canada was one of the Allies that defeated fascism. Canadian soldiers fought for freedom and now the Canadian government seems eager to take that away,” said Media Research Center (MRC) Culture Vice President Dan Gainor. “Watching an ally, a neighbor and a friend talk about regulating the free press shows where the far left wants to take, not just Canada, but any nation they control,” he added.)
— Pro-life, pro-marriage candidate barred from running for Canadian Conservative leadership Richard Decarie has been disqualified as a Conservative leadership candidate – Anthony Murdoch (DIERSEN: Constructively, my critics/opponents have barred me from running for any kind of government or political office in Illinois, DuPage County, Milton Township, and Wheaton. My critics/opponents a) stress how Illinois (Brady & Durkin & Grant), DuPage County (Cronin), Milton Township (Heidorn), and Wheaton (Suess & Robbins) treat me and treat my GOPUSA ILLINOIS emails and b) stress how the Illinois Republican Party (Schneider & Grogan), DuPage County Republican Central Committee (Keller), and Milton Township Republican Organization (LeVan) treat me and treat my GOPUSA ILLINOIS emails.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: The Conservative party of Canada barred pro-life and pro-family advocate Richard Décarie from running as a candidate for the party’s leadership. Over the weekend, Décarie took to Twitter to announce that he was disallowed by the “unelected” Conservative Party of Canada’s Leadership Election Organizing Committee (LEOC), to run as a leadership candidate. Pro-life organization Campaign Life Coalition (CLC) says Saturday’s disqualification of Décarie as a conservative party leadership candidate, “reeks of corruption,” adding that it is “positively outraged” about the “undemocratic actions” of the selection committee.)

WASHINGTON MONTHLY
— Who Is Really Voting? Why you shouldn’t trust exit polls—and why the 2020 electorate is much older than you think. – Phil Keisling
https://washingtonmonthly.com/2020/02/25/who-is-really-voting/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: It’s a familiar lament: the Democratic electorates in the nation’s first presidential contests are quite different from those elsewhere in America. Far less known and much less discussed: how wildly un-representative those voting so far in Iowa, New Hampshire, and Nevada, are when compared to those states’ typical Democratic electorates. The caucus system itself is the most visible culprit. Just 30 percent of Iowa’s 600,000 registered Democrats participated in the February 3 caucus. Meanwhile, Democratic turnout in Nevada was closer to 15 percent. Former Senator Harry Reid is right: both caucuses need to go. But the largely ignored, more insidious problem involves caucus “entrance” and election “exit” polls—or more precisely, the political journalists, pundits, and analysts who can’t separate their reliable data from that which is highly suspect, if not downright wrong.)

NATIONAL WHISTLEBLOWER CENTER
— Whistleblower Protection Laws for Federal Employee Whistleblowers (DIERSEN: Whistleblower Protection Laws did not protect me. While I was a federal employee for almost 30 years, I blew the whistle on political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, age discrimination, and retaliation for opposing the aforesaid. To punish me, my Democrat GAO superiors forced me to retire in 1997 when I was 49 years old, gave me unfair performance expectations and appraisals, always ranked me in the bottom half of my coworkers for pay-for-performance purposes, did not promote me beyond GS-13, got rid of my mentor in 1987, kept me off audits of IRS for all but 3 of the almost 18 years that I worked for GAO, and forced me to take a $20,157 (21%) pay cut in today’s dollars to transfer from IRS to GAO in 1980. My Democrat IRS superiors did not promote me beyond GS-12, disallowed my education deductions in 1978, got rid of my mentor in 1975, and disallowed my partial day per diem claims in 1974. My Democrat Post Office superiors forced me resign in 1969 and disallowed my sick leave requests in 1969 and 1968.)
https://www.whistleblowers.org/whistleblower-protection-laws-for-federal-employee-whistleblowers/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Strong whistleblower protections already exist for federal employees. However, specific reforms to these laws are needed to make whistleblowing safer and more effective for federal employees. Understanding Federal Employee Whistleblower Protection Laws Passed in 1989, the Whistleblower Protection Act (WPA) is one of the primary statutes that outlines public employees’ right to speak out about misconduct, aimed at ensuring that all government employees can safely disclose “violations of laws, rules, or regulations, or mismanagement, gross waste of funds, abuse of authority and or a substantial and specific danger to public health and safety.” Additionally, Executive Order 12731, issued in 1990, requires all federal employees to “disclose waste, fraud, abuse, and corruption to authorities.” This Executive Order makes such disclosures mandatory in order to ensure standards of ethical conduct for all executive branch employees.)

THRIVE GLOBAL
— 3 Types of Workplace Discrimination (That Often Happen in Plain Sight) Workplace discrimination is getting plenty of attention lately. Here are three kinds of workplace discrimination that don’t get the attention they deserve. – Andrej Kovacevic (DIERSEN: I should write a book about those who promote age discrimination. I would focus age discriminators in Wheaton, Glen Ellyn, Milton Township, DuPage County, and Illinois who have lots of religious, government, political, and/or financial clout. I would focus on those who paint themselves as being religious, conservative, and/or Republican.)
https://thriveglobal.com/stories/3-types-of-workplace-discrimination-that-often-happen-in-plain-sight/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Age Discrimination In today’s economy, it’s generally believed that we’re about as close to full employment as we’ve ever been before. That reality is pushing more traditionally underrepresented groups into the labor force, changing its composition in ways that we have never seen before. A prime example of this is the fact that people aged 65 and over are now the fastest-growing segment of the US labor pool. That, in turn, is driving a sharp increase in the number of incidents of age discrimination in the workplace. According to a recent survey, two in three US workers aged 45 or older report seeing or experiencing such discrimination at work, and that number seems to be rising. As long as unemployment remains low and more older Americans are forced to keep working due to financial insecurity as they approach retirement, age discrimination is likely to remain an issue for some time to come.)

https://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2020/feb/29/buttigieg-extremely-vulnerable-attack-touting-navy/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: This cycle, such an effort would be designed to chip away at the former mayor’s argument that his time in Afghanistan gives him unique intellectual and moral authority on U.S. foreign policy. Political observers and other veterans who served in Afghanistan interviewed by The Times suggest that beneath the surface, Mr. Buttigieg could be walking into a trap. “It’s a weak story,” said one national GOP political strategist who has worked on presidential campaigns. “If the entire foundation of your foreign policy experience is built around your time as a low-ranking officer staring at a green computer screen, you’re making yourself extremely vulnerable.”)

I worked on audits of federal financial institution regulators for almost 9 years, on audits of IRS for 3 years, and on audits of many other federal agencies, including Railroad Retirement Board, Department of Defense, U.S. Postal Service, Environmental Protection Agency, Department of Energy, Department of Transportation, Immigration and Naturalization Service, General Service Administration, Federal Highway Administration, Department of Labor, Federal Aviation Administration, Veteran Administration, Department of Housing and Urban Development, and Department of Health and Human Services, for almost 6 years. I worked for IRS as a Revenue Officer for almost 9 years, the last 5 1/2 years of which at the GS-12 Step 1-5 levels, currently $85,084-$96,431/year. I worked for the Post Office as a part time carrier/clerk for almost 3 years at the GS-4 Step 1-3 levels, currently $16.64-$17.75/hour. I learned a lot about federal court procedures as an active member in a class action lawsuit and as the plaintiff in two lawsuits. I learned a lot about arbitration procedures as a grievant four grievances and as a Financial Regulatory Authority arbitrator since 1998.)

— Congresswoman asks Democratic presidential candidates to address federal workforce – Lia Russell (DIERSEN: In what ways have you been a minority? All during the almost 30 years that I worked for the federal government, I was a minority because I was a Republican.

https://fcw.com/articles/2020/02/27/wexton-asks-dem-candidates-to-address-federal-workforce.aspx
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Ahead of Virginia’s March 3 primary for the 2020 presidential race, Rep. Jennifer Wexton (D-Va.) published an open letter urging the Democratic hopefuls to consider how they would work to restore faith in the civil service. Job satisfaction across the federal government has flagged continuously every year under the Trump administration, according to the Partnership for Public Service, which puts out a “Best Places in Government To Work” report every year. In 2019, the public sector’s employee engagement score dipped to 61.7 points out of 100, compared to 77 in the private sector. “From its inception, Donald Trump’s administration has set out to inflict harm on our public servants and the vital role our federal agencies play in serving the American people,” Wexton wrote in the letter. “This administration has launched attack after attack on the nonpartisan civil service — severely undercutting workers’ rights, deliberately leaving agencies understaffed and key positions unfilled, and using employees as bargaining chips in budget negotiations.”)

NEW YORK TIMES
— A Presidency Increasingly Guided by Suspicion and Distrust – Peter Baker and Maggie Haberman (DIERSEN: My being disappointed by so many candidates who I have helped elect since 2000 discourages me from helping elect candidates now and in the future. I should write a book about those who have disappointed me the most. I would focus on those who once elected have promoted LGBTQ activity, abortion, mass/illegal immigration, booze, gambling, pot, and other vices, abolition of the First and Second Amendments, patronage, political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, age discrimination, and retaliation for opposing the aforesaid. I would focus on those who have taken adverse actions against me. I would focus on those who helped end my TAPROOT Republicans of Illinois chairmanship, Wheaton Chamber of Commerce Government Affairs Committee membership, Milton Township Republican Organization webmaster service, Illinois Center Right Coalition Steering Committee membership, American Association of Political Consultants Midwest Chapter board membership, etc. I would focus on those who blame me and my GOPUSA ILLINOIS emails for all of their problems, for all of your problems, for all of my problems, and for all of everyone’s problems.)
