RIVER BENDER
— Democrats ever-increasingly use “equity” to demand that the demographics of those who pass tests be equal, that is, if X% of those who take a test are minority and/or female, X% have of those who pass that test must be minority and/or female. My critics/opponents stress that very few of those who took the CPA examination with me in 1979 and extremely few of those who took the Certified Internal Auditor examination with me in 1981 were minorities and/or females and that far fewer of them passed the examinations on their first attempt like I did. According to my critics/opponents, that was because I have always benefitted tremendously from discrimination against minorities and against females. In my defense, neither of my parents attended college. My father was only the first of my ancestors to earn a high school diploma. My mother never attended high school. I had to work my way through college.

According to my critics/opponents, I owe all my successes in life to my benefitted from slavery and from discrimination against those who are not the aforesaid. They stress that my ancestors have been in America since 1844. In my defense and in my ancestors’ defense, I stress that we have always lived in northeast Illinois, that we never were in a position to discriminate against anyone, and that we never did discriminate against anyone. Neither of my parents attended college. My father was only the first of my ancestors to earn a high school diploma. My mother never attended high school. I had to work my way through college. Affirmative Action (AA) and DEI are reparations. My critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes have always used AA and DEI to make me pay reparations. When I was 49 years old in 1997, they forced me to retire early and they gave my job and my preferred corner office to my Black subordinate. Of course, Democrats and RINOs have no problem with that.

LAKE FOREST PATCH
— $1.13 Million Awarded To Help Asylum-Seekers In Lake County. Created in response to Abbott’s border policy, the grants will go to housing, legal aid and health care for new arrivals. (COMMENT: Lake County today, your county tomorrow.)
https://patch.com/illinois/lakeforest/1-13-million-grants-headed-help-asylum-seekers-lake-county
(FROM THE ARTICLE:  As the federal government tightens asylum rules amid growing national tension over immigration, the Lake County Board this week unanimously voted to accept an expanded state grant to assist asylum-seekers. Lake County is the only county in Illinois to receive funding through the Supporting Municipalities for Asylum Seeker Services, or SMASS, program, which is now in its second year. The SMASS program focuses on funding services such as shelter and transitional housing support, food assistance, wraparound services, legal help and health and wellness care. The Metropolitan Mayors Caucus administers the program, distributing state money on behalf of the Illinois Department of Human Services. This year, Lake County officials secured a grant worth more than $1.13 million, an increase of about 9 percent from what they received last year. Mano a Mano Family Resource Center, which serves immigrant families, will receive $924,298 of that money, while North Suburban Legal Aid will get $184,404 to provide legal assistance to asylum-seekers. Lake County will retain $21,536 to cover administrative costs for managing the program. The North Suburban Legal Aid Clinic was founded in 2015 by Nancy Rotering, who is also a member of executive board the Metropolitan Mayors Caucus. Gov. J.B. Pritzker said the SMASS program was created in response to the policy of the Texas state government to provide people who show up at the southern border with free transportation to sanctuary cities. “As we continue to call for further federal support, and as Illinois takes a stand against the callous ways Texas Gov. Abbott is using human beings as political pawns, these grants will lend support where it is needed throughout the state,” Pritzker said, announcing the funding earlier this year. More than 49,000 asylum-seekers have arrived in Chicago on buses and planes since September 2022, not including those arriving independently or via Greyhound, according to city officials. In addition to the Lake County grant, several other municipalities and organizations across Illinois were awarded funding for the 2025 fiscal year through the SMASS program. Champaign received nearly $710,000, Oak Park was awarded about $300,000 and Ford Heights secured almost $1.24 million. As for non-governmental groups, BEDS Plus Inc. received $878,000, Centro de Informacíon was granted nearly $1.7 million, The Immigration Project was awarded more than $702,000, Respond Now received more than $706,000, Rincon Family Services secured over $1.4 million, Western Illinois Dreamers was granted nearly $375,000, and World Relief Quad Cities received more than $367,000 to support services for asylum-seekers and individuals experiencing homelessness. This local initiative comes during an election season in which President Joe Biden and candidate and Vice President Kamala Harris are facing increasing pressure over their administration’s handling of immigration and border security. Last month, Biden administration officials announced tougher asylum restrictions, requiring that the daily number of border crossings remain below 1,500 for nearly a month before easing restrictions on asylum applications. That move, which builds on earlier policies introduced in June, has drawn sharp criticism from immigration advocates, who argue that it effectively denies asylum to those fleeing persecution.)

NIU
— NIU’s new freshman class excels academically, earns more than $6.3 million in merit scholarships (COMMENT: Did you get any merit scholarships? I did not. My critics/opponents have always used that against me. In my defense, neither of my parents attended college, my father was only the first of my ancestors to earn a high school diploma, my mother never attended high school, and I had to work my way through college. Instead of studying, I spent far too many hours a) washing dishes during my junior and senior years in high school and b) delivering mail while I was a UIC and then NIU student. I should write about my critics/opponents. I would focus on those whose parents had lots of money, who bought them cars, who paid for their college expenses, and/or who got them jobs.)

WILLIAM J KELLY
— KELLY QUESTIONS JOHNSON ON THE RACE CARD
https://x.com/Williamjkelly/status/1844420546508800219
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson is doing EXACTLY what Lori Lightfoot did I tried to hold her accountable for her failed leadership – cry racism. Johnson isn’t even two years into his term and every attempt to question him on his CPS coup and reckless $300M CTU loan ask, his migrant spending that has triggered a nearly $1B debt for next year and his flip flop on police hiring and ShotSpotter, results in the same answer – racism! Chicagoans say that he is worse than Lori Lightfoot – so that’s what I asked him yesterday and you know what his answer was? “I am not a black lesbian!”)

GOPUSA ILLINOIS
— GAO is less than a shell of what it once was. But virtually all of its employees are Democrats who are minority, female, younger, veteran, non-Protestant, non-German American, and/or have ancestors who have not been in America for a long time. While I worked for the Democrats who ran GAO 1980-1997, they used Republican-led budget cuts to get rid of the agency’s employees like me who were Republican, White, male, older, non-veteran, Protestant, German American, and/or had ancestors who had been in America for a long time. I should write a book about the aforesaid.  – Dave Diersen

(FROM THE ARTICLE: Most U.S. adults (73%) say they see inaccurate election news at least somewhat often, including 37% who say they see this extremely or very often. Only 3% of Americans say they don’t see inaccurate news about the election at all. Republicans and independents who lean toward the Republican Party are about twice as likely as Democrats and Democratic leaners to say they come across inaccurate election news extremely or very often (51% vs. 24%). Meanwhile, about a third of Democrats (36%) say they see inaccurate election news not too often or not at all, while just 14% of Republicans say the same. Conservative Republicans are more likely than Republicans who describe themselves as moderate or liberal to report seeing inaccurate news coverage about the election extremely or very often (60% vs. 37%). . .Republicans are more likely than Democrats to say they see inaccurate election news from the sources they turn to most often. . .Most Republicans (61%) say it is difficult to determine what is true and what is not, compared with 42% of Democrats who express this view. A majority of Democrats (58%) say they find it easy to distinguish truth from fiction when it comes to election news.)
