— ‘Follow Your Dreams’ and Other Terrible Career Advice. Want to make a strong professional start? Be open to every opportunity and embrace the lowliest tasks. – Bonnie Hammer (COMMENT: After you earned your bachelor’s degree, what was the lowliest task that your boss gave you? In 1971, when I was 22 years old, when I was in my 7th month as the Retail Sales Manager in the Chicago Heights Firestone Store, while the store was open, my boss had me get on a ladder and clean the white walls on moldy tires that had been hanging on the walls of the showroom for many years. That was too much for me. I politely gave him my 2-week notice that I had accepted a job offer from Oldsmobile. He immediately rudely/threadedly fired me. But then, Oldsmobile withdrew its job offer saying that it had just agreed to stop hiring Whites to settle an EEOC complaint. Previously, my Firestone Store boss had me pump gasoline, mount, balance, and install tires, change engine oil and filters, remove and install batteries, deliver major appliances, etc. He did not approve of my demographics including my being a draft-avoider, college graduate, conservative, Republican, Protestant, German American, Crete resident, and my ancestors had been in America since 1844. He had not hired me, the Firestone district office had hired me and assigned me to his store. He refused to let me start in his store until I passed a 2-week probationary period in Firestone’s Gary Indiana store. What little understanding/tolerance/sympathy he had for me was because a) I had worked my way through college and b) my father had died suddenly in October of 1969 and I was living with and helping support my mother and brother because of that.)

— The Government-Spending Jobs Boom. Most new jobs are in healthcare, government and social assistance. – Editorial

(FROM THE ARTICLE: In many states run by progressives such as Oregon, California and Illinois, government, healthcare and social assistance account for more than all of the net new jobs. That means those states are losing jobs in other industries. Illinois has added about 52,000 jobs in government, healthcare and social assistance over the last year—about double the number of its overall new jobs.)

INSIDE PUBLIC ACCOUNTING
— Public accounting had absolutely no interest in me even though a) I had passed the CPA and Certified Internal Auditor examinations on my first attempt, b) I had become a licensed CPA, c) I had earned four other job-related professional certifications, d) I had earned master’s degrees in business, accounting, and finance, e) I had worked for IRS for almost 9 years, the last 5 1/2 years of which at GS-12 Step 1-5 Levels, currently $97,079-$110,020/year, and f) I had worked for GAO for almost 18 years, the last 11 years of which at the GS-13 Step 1-10 Levels, currently $115,439-$150,075/year a) because I was “too old” (30) when I passed the CPA examination and b) because I am not minority, female, veteran, non-Protestant, non-German American, and my ancestors have been in America since 1844.

CHICAGO TRIBUNE
— Democrat leaders ever-increasingly call for increasing state pensions. Beyond overwhelmingly, my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes do not have pensions and they have used my Civil Service Retirement System (CSRS) pension against me big time as well as the 72% federal health insurance subsidy that my wife and I get. In my defense, I worked for the federal government for almost 30 years and I paid 7% of my salary into the CSRS. Further, my Social Security is dramatically reduced because I get a CSRS pension.

— APRIL 17, 2010 FLACHBACK: GOP outsider Jack Roeser now wants in (COMMENT: Why isn’t there coverage like this of the Illinois Republican Party (IRP) selection of its National Committeeman and Committeewoman at its State Convention in Collinsville May 24-25? In 2010, in my role as TAPROOT Republicans of Illinois chairman, I conducted a candidate forum for IRP National Committeeman that Roeser participated in.)
https://www.chicagotribune.com/2010/04/17/gop-outsider-roeser-now-wants-in/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: After decades as the sharp-tongued, angry outsider of Illinois Republican politics, conservative businessman Jack Roeser is trying to get on the inside. He’s given $50,000 to the state GOP. He’s seeking a leading role as the Illinois liaison to the Republican National Committee. And he’s even agreed to help with a big fundraiser honoring statewide Republican candidates, including a man he vilified before the February primary, U.S. Senate nominee Mark Kirk. Ask the 86-year-old Roeser to explain the sudden change of heart, and he cites new party leadership and a desire to stop the circular firing squad the Illinois GOP had become. “Very simply, the Republican Party is very different than it was a short while ago,” said Roeser, the wealthy founder of Otto Engineering, a Carpentersville manufacturing firm.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: SALT LAKE CITY – One of the responsibilities of Republican delegates from Cache County at the upcoming statewide convention on April 27 will be selecting a committeeman and committeewoman to represent Utah on the Republican National Committee. In addition to deciding which GOP candidates do or don’t make it to the June statewide primary and the November election, delegates will also chose between six candidates for RNC committeeman and two candidates for RNC committeewoman. Those candidates for RNC committeeman are Ty Jensen, a candidate in Utah’s 2nd Congressional District; author and climate scientist William Pekny; Dustin Kearl, a certified public accountant and financial consultant; businessman Michael Pierce; entrepreneur Brad Bonham; and David Yonan of Ogden. The candidates for RNC committeewoman are Teena Horlacker, a distance educator for the Western Governor’s University, and Kim Coleman, a former member of the Utah Legislature. The primary role of delegates is to represent their precincts in selecting candidates for the primary and general elections, according to Cache GOP chair Geoff Cox. They will also need to exercise sound judgment in determining the fitness and fidelity to Republican principles of the aforementioned candidates for the national GOP committee. According to the agenda for its convention, the Utah GOP’s state delegates will begin gathering at the Salt Palace Convention Center starting at 7 a.m. for credentialing. They are scheduled to begin considering nominating candidates for multi-county elections, including several state school board, state House and state Senate races at 8 a.m. Throughout the afternoon, delegates will also hear speeches and vote on candidates for state-level races, including nominations for state auditor, attorney general and the governor. The goal of the RNC is to officially nominate and confirm candidates for president and vice president; adopt a comprehensive party platform; unify the party; and publicize and launch the fall campaign. The high-profile Republicans who will fill the roles of chair and vice chair of the RNC have already been chosen. Michael Whatley, a North Carolina Republican who has echoed President Donald Trump’s charges of a voter fraud in the 2020 election, has been selected as the party’s new national chairman. He will be assisted by Lara Trump, the former president’s daughter-in-law, as co-chair.)

CHICAGO SUN-TIMES
— Illinois Republicans grapple with mail voting amid mixed signals from Trump. ‘We have to adapt’ A greater share of Chicago area Republicans cast their ballots by mail in March compared to the 2022 primary, but they were still vastly outpaced by Democrats in utilizing a voting system that has become increasingly popular. – Mitchell Armentrout (COMMENT: I contacted 14 registered Republican voters in my DuPage County Milton Township Precinct 59 in Wheaton who had requested mail-in ballots, but the election commission had no record of their receipt as the March 19, 2024 election approached.)
https://chicago.suntimes.com/democracy/2024/04/26/vote-by-mail-republicans-illinois-donald-trump
(FROM THE ARTICLE: While rallying his political troops last summer in Springfield heading into the primary campaign season, Illinois Republican Party chairman Don Tracy highlighted some of his top priorities to help the party regain a foothold in the Democratic-dominated state. “We’ve got to embrace early voting and voting by mail,” Tracy said at the Illinois Republican Party State Central Committee & County Chairmen’s Association breakfast in August. “Democrats have won too many close elections on the strength of their vote-by-mail programs.” Tracy said such vote-banking “needs to be the focus of every campaign in every county and township throughout the state” — no small order for a party led by former President Donald Trump, who has routinely sown mistrust for mail-in voting since he lost his 2020 reelection bid. . .The state GOP chairman has downplayed the possibility of Trump’s unfounded fraud claims discouraging Illinois voters from signing up for mail ballots, noting that Trump has embraced it as he tries to retake the Oval Office from President Joe Biden. “ABSENTEE VOTING, EARLY VOTING, AND ELECTION DAY VOTING ARE ALL GOOD OPTIONS,” Trump wrote in a social media post last week. “REPUBLICANS MUST MAKE A PLAN, REGISTER, AND VOTE!” On the biggest stages, though, Trump has regularly fallen back on the myths of rampant voter fraud that he’s claimed denied him a second term. “Mail-in voting has to be totally corrupt. Get that through your head,” Trump said at a Michigan rally in February. “I mean, it has to be.” The FBI and other authorities have confirmed there was no widespread mail voter fraud or any other interference in the 2020 election. While Tracy and other establishment Illinois Republicans have kept Trump’s lies about election fraud at arm’s length, they have suggested Democrats who hold all statewide offices and supermajorities in the General Assembly aren’t committed to preventing ballot-box shenanigans. “We want to make it easy to vote but hard to cheat. Democrats want it to be easy no matter what. They loosen voter integrity rules every chance they get,” Tracy said, pointing to Democratic rejection of voter ID requirements. Republican leaders have also argued state laws that have expanded mail voting eligibility since 2020 “remove important election safeguards” — but they agree their opponents across the aisle have left them in the dust when it comes to voter registration and mail ballot sign-up efforts. “Look at the model of what Democrats have done over the years,” said former Illinois House Minority Leader Jim Durkin, a Republican from Western Springs who stepped down last year. “They have been incredibly successful at registering and mobilizing voters. “I can’t tell you how many times I’ve seen Republicans up 3 to 4 points on Election Day, and everyone is thrilled until — ‘whoa, whoa, there are still mail ballots out.’ Then there’s a flip, and we continue to be on the losing side,” said Durkin, a vocal opponent of Trump. “It took Republicans a while to see this is where elections are won and lost,” he said. “It’s here to stay. It’s in every state, whether you like it or not, and you have to deal with it.”)

In Illinois, around 14 percent of the state’s population has medical debt in collections. . .A plan included in the proposed budget aims to tackle those expensive medical bills. For the upcoming fiscal year, the proposed budget would set aside $10 million to get rid of $1 billion in medical debt for nearly 340,000 low income people. It would be part of a four year plan to wipe $4 billion in medical debt for more than one million people in Illinois. . .A program like the one the governor proposed in his budget is already in place in Cook County. They’ve been able to get rid of nearly $350 million in medical debt for about 200,000 people.)

— On Day 2, Trump met some of his jurors. His lawyers met their social media accounts. – ERICA ORDEN
https://www.politico.com/news/2024/04/16/trump-hush-money-trial-jury-selection-day-two-00152704
(FROM THE ARTICLE: In a fitting move for a defendant whose public persona has been crafted in large part by his social media behavior, Trump’s lawyers have mined the depths of prospective jurors’ social media accounts for potential signs of bias in their years-old comments and memes. Several of them were cut on Tuesday after the judge examined their prior posts. Merchan dismissed one man after Trump lawyer Todd Blanche presented a social media post in which the juror wrote, “Good news!! Trump lost his court battle on his unlawful travel ban!!!” along with a suggestion to “lock him up.” In other instances, however, Merchan refused Blanche’s effort to kick off certain prospective jurors, including one whose husband shared a post suggesting that the comic book team “The Avengers” unite against Trump. Though Trump himself said little during the day’s events, he earned himself his first reprimand from Merchan. “Your client was audibly uttering something,” Merchan told Blanche after he had finished questioning a prospective juror. “I won’t tolerate that,” Merchan said. “I will not have any jurors intimidated in this courtroom. I want to make that crystal clear.” Merchan instructed Blanche to tell Trump to stop his antics. As Merchan spoke, Trump sat slumped in his seat, as though he were sitting in a lounge chair.)

JOHN KASS
— Joe the Faint Hearted – Steve Huntley
https://johnkassnews.com/joe-the-faint-hearted/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Virtually all the media assert that Israel is becoming ever more isolated in its war against Hamas. What goes unmentioned is a major reason for that: Israel’s closest ally is headed by a man who doesn’t have the courage to stand up forcefully and eloquently in defense of the Jewish state’s righteous battle to defend itself against an Islamist terrorist militia. The president of the United States often is called the most powerful man in the world. But has that exalted office ever been occupied by a weaker individual than Joe Biden? Inept, ineffectual, inconsistent, incoherent, anxious, fearful, vacillating, weak and wrong — the dictionary is packed with words for failure to characterize the record of this perhaps ever-more senile old man and his faint-hearted administration.)

EPOCH TIMES
— Negative Views of Federal Government Soar Under Biden Compared to Trump (COMMENT: Democrats run the federal government. I was a federal employee for almost 30 years and almost 9 of those years for IRS. I should write a book about those who have held that against me the most. In my defense, if Oldsmobile had not agreed to stop hiring Whites to settle an EEOC complaint in 1971 when I was 22 years old, I would have been a federal employee for less than 3 years. In my book, I would focus on past and present a) leaders of the Milton Township Republican Organization, DuPage County Republican Central Committee, and Illinois Republican Party, b) Republican leaders of Wheaton, Milton Township, DuPage County, and Illinois, c) Republican candidates on ballots in my precinct and their political consultants, major donors, fundraisers, pollsters, campaign managers, campaign staff, and campaign volunteers, d) conservative leaders and activists, e) religious leaders and activists, and f) those who I have sued.)

Fill a seat where you live. To advocate more powerfully politically. When conservatives do this everywhere, we’ll start winning everywhere. . .The most effective phone calls to public servants are made by precinct committeemen or those truthfully saying they will become precinct committeemen. . .The GOP.com website contains zero information regarding why and how to become a voting member of your local Republican committee, how to find your local Republican committee and, whether, when you become a voting member of your local committee, there’s a communications and collaboration platform in existence on which precinct committeemen can easily communicate and collaborate regarding reaching their Republican Party goals.)

But extremely few federal employees make the aforesaid promotion deadlines. My critics/opponents stress that I did not make GS-13 until I was 38 and never made GS-14. They use against me the fact a) that I earned job-related master’s degrees when I was 27, 31, and 48, b) that I earned job-related professional certifications when I was 30, 32, 41, 45, 47, and 48, and c) that I earned a job-related professional license when I was 31.

Because I spent all that time working instead of studying, a) my GPA suffered, b) I majored in management instead of accounting, c) I did not take and pass the CPA examination until I was 30, and c) I did not take and pass the Certified Internal Auditor examination and become a licensed CPA until I was 32. By then, because of my bad demographics, it was too late for me to have a successful career in accounting.)

Happily given even more preference to my Democrat subordinates who were minority, female, younger, veteran, and/or had ancestors who had not been in America for a long time.

While I worked for the Democrats who ran the federal government for almost 30 years, they used that against me big time to turn my many Democrat superiors, supervisors, coworkers, and subordinates against me who were veterans. They stressed what I would not have been able to do the following as soon or if ever if I had not avoided the draft: a) buying new cars (1967, 1968, 1971, 1973, and 1978), b) going on vacations to Florida (1969 and 1970), c) earning college degrees (1970, 1976, 1980), d) buying real estate (1972, 1974, 1976, 1980, 1984), e) going on vacations to the Bahamas, Mexico, Jamacia, and Hawaii (1973-1976), f) getting married (1979), g) earning professional certifications (1979 and 1981), h) earning a professional license (1981), i) etc.)

— Pritzker touts proposal to purchase $1 billion in medical debt (COMMENT: What has helped you avoid medical debt? For me, it has always been having a job that provides medical insurance. For me, those jobs were Firestone Stores 1970-1972, IRS 1971-1980, and GAO 1980-1997. Further, as a federal retiree since 1997, the federal government continues to pay 72% of my and my wife’s medical insurance.)

— Plan would convert some Loop office buildings into affordable housing (COMMENT: Back in the good old days, back in 1974 when I was 25 years old, when my IRS salary was $97,079/year in today’s dollars, I could afford to buy a studio condo in the Outer Drive East building so I could walk to work without having to sell my town home in University Park that I had bought new in 1972. However, if I had to sell that town home, I would have had to sell it at a loss. In today’s dollars, my IRS salary was $54,728 in 1971, $66,942 in 1972, and $80,994 in 1973. Of course, according to my critics/opponents I was grossly overpaid and promoted far too fast. In my defense, I completed four graduate evening business courses a year at Loyola in 1972, 1973, 1974, and 1975. Further, I successfully completed a major developmental assignment during 1973 and 1974.)

— Chicago honors Vietnam veterans with restored memorial (COMMENT: I should write a book about my critics/opponents who have used the tragic death of my Crete-Monee High School classmate Charles Gattis ( https://www.vvmf.org/Wall-of-Faces/18083/CHARLES-M-GATTIS-JR/page/2/ ) against me the most. I would focus on my Democrat superiors in the federal government. Gattis died on July 5, 1967 from injuries he suffered in his first deployment in Quang Tri province. My critics/opponents stressed that unlike Gattis who enlisted, I avoided the Vietnam War draft with student deferments 1966-1970 and a financial hardship draft deferment 1970-1971. When Gattis died, I was working for the Park Forest Post Office, earning credits toward a Civil Service Retirement System pension, and driving a 1966 Pontiac Tempest Sprint. My critics/opponents stressed that I paint myself as being conservative, Republican, and patriotic. They stressed that because of my health problems, if I had not avoided the draft, I would not have been sent into combat anyway. I could not run because I had a bone disease, my eyesight could not be corrected to 20/20, and I had partial red/green color blindness. They painted me as being a big coward and a big hypocrite. They stressed that because I avoided the draft, I was able to buy a 1968 Oldsmobile 442 in 1967 and a 1969 Dodge Charger SE in 1968 and that I drove that Charger from NIU to Florida for spring breaks in 1969 and 1970. They called me “Daytona Dave.” The Vietnam War did not end until April 30, 1975. Prior to then, while my peers were dying in Vietnam, I earned a bachelor’s degree in management from NIU in 1970. I bought a new 1972 Covette in 1971. I bought a new town home in University Park in 1972. I bought a studio condo in downtown Chicago in 1974. I got promoted to GS-12, currently $97,079/year, in 1974. I completed 13 graduate evening business courses at Loyola. I went on vacations to the Bahamas, Hawaii, Mexico, and Jamaica.)

— Immigration advocates use the bridge collapse to stress that immigrants take bad jobs, jobs that Americans fail/refuse to take. I took bad jobs. To have money to buy cars and to pay for college expenses, I a) did yard work 1962-1964, b) delivered newspapers 1962-1966, c) washed dishes 1964-1966, d) cleaned golf shoes, chipped slag, and pumped gasoline in 1966, e) delivered mail 1966-1969, and f) worked on an automobile assembly line in 1970. If there had been as many illegals back then as there are now, they would have gotten the jobs that I got. If I still would have gotten those jobs, my salaries would have been lower because illegals drive salaries down for bad jobs.)

— ‘708’ mental health taxing boards: Are Illinois voters schizoid or just depressed? – Mark Glennon
https://wirepoints.org/708-mental-health-taxing-boards-are-illinois-voters-schizoid-or-just-depressed-wirepoints/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Why would anybody in Illinois vote to create a new taxing authority to add to property tax bills? With property taxes being the second highest among the states and with polls consistently saying they are a top voter concern, you wouldn’t think such a thing could pass in a referendum anywhere the state. But many Illinois townships and counties vote to do just that, creating what are called “708 boards.” The boards are specifically empaneled to address local mental health needs and can only be created by local voter referendums. Some 90 of them now exist, according to a group called Advocate for 708. Proponents say they help fill gaps in available mental health services. Panel members are appointed by township or county boards, which also approve grants. The 708 boards are taxing jurisdictions with their own power to levy a local property tax of up to 0.15% of assessed value. The cap is set by state law. That’s typically a small amount for an average homeowner, supporters say – “less than the price of a weekly cup of coffee ($1.85),” according to Advocate for 708. Illinois, however, is already notorious for the number of different units of government it has – 8,923 by one count – far more than any other state. A new 708 panel means another line item on property tax bills.)

Those adverse actions include a) forcing me to take their early retirement “offer” in 1997 when I was 49 years old, b) always ranking me in the bottom half of my coworkers for pay-for-performance purposes, c) not promoting me, d) delaying my promotions, e) forcing me to suffer a big pay cut to transfer, f) disallowing my education deductions, travel vouchers, and sick leave requests, g) firing me, and h) forcing me to resign. They would not have taken the aforesaid adverse actions against me if I had been a Democrat and especially if I had been a minority, female, younger, and/or veteran.

If there had been as many illegals back then as there are now, they would have gotten the jobs that I got. If I still would have gotten those jobs, my salaries would have been lower because illegals drive salaries down.)

https://news.wttw.com/2024/03/21/chicago-officials-slowly-evicting-migrants-city-shelters-johnson-resists-pressure-reverse
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Chicago officials evicted 15 migrants from city shelters through Wednesday, far fewer than expected less than a week ago, as Mayor Brandon Johnson resisted new calls to reverse course. Since city officials began enforcing the 60-day limit on shelter stays imposed by Johnson, eight people were evicted on Sunday and Monday, with another seven evicted on Wednesday, according to city data. It was unclear whether anyone would be evicted Thursday. The most recent evictions came on the same day that Ald. Andre Vasquez (40th Ward), the chair of the City Council’s Committee on Immigrant and Refugee Rights, renewed his call for the mayor to scrap the limit entirely and step up efforts to care for the men, women and children who made their way to Chicago from the southern border. “The city should not be in the business of handing out evictions,” Vasquez said Wednesday morning. “No one in need of shelter, whether they are newly arrived or whether they were born and raised here, should ever face the fear and instability of being evicted from a city shelter knowing they have nowhere else to go.”)

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.)
