I should write a book about candidates in ballots in my precinct since 2000 who got elected as Republicans, but then dumped many, most, if not virtually all of the planks in the Republican Party platform, most commonly, its traditional marriage/family, right to life, immigration, illegal drugs, Second Amendment, and/or equal opportunity (no race or gender based preference giving) planks.)

I bought a new 1966 Pontiac Tempest Sprint in 1966, a new 1968 Oldsmobile 442 in 1967, and a new 1969 Dodge Charger SE in 1968.)

ALIOS
— Franklin Graham worries Trump too old to run in 2024 (DIERSEN: I was born in 1948. All my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes have always promoted age discrimination. What would you stress in defense of your age? I stress that neither health problems nor any other kind of problem has stopped me from putting together and sending out a GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletter a) each and every morning since 2004 and b) each and every evening too since 2015. Further, I have the best record by far for attending Milton Township Republican Organization meetings and fundraisers since 1999.)
https://www.axios.com/franklin-graham-trump-2024-president-054ab9ca-f55e-4588-baa0-b564cefa0592.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The Rev. Franklin Graham says a potential 2024 presidential bid by Donald Trump would “be a very tough thing to do,” the prominent Christian leader told “Axios on HBO.” Why it matters: Graham, the president of the Billy Graham Evangelistic Association and Samaritan’s Purse, was among Trump’s earliest and most prominent evangelical defenders. Graham told “Axios on HBO” that a Trump comeback would be difficult because of his advancing age and eating habits. ““I think for him, everything will depend on his health at that time. If he still has energy and strength like he does. I don’t.” “You know the guy does not eat well, you know, and it’s amazing the energy that he has.” “He’s lost weight, fifteen pounds, Maybe. So he might be in good health and in good shape. I don’t know.” Trump would be 78 in 2024, the same age as Joe Biden in 2020. The big picture: Graham stood by Trump through repeated scandals, telling “Axios on HBO” in 2018 that he saw Trump as a defender of the faith. “Now people say ‘Well Frank but how can you defend him, when he’s lived such a sordid life?’ I never said he was the best example of the Christian faith. He defends the faith. And I appreciate that very much.”)

FINANCIAL TIMES
— A revolt against the rich could be sparked by basic demographics. There are now far more millennial adults, some with children, for whom the economy is not delivering. – RHYMER RIGBY (DIERSEN: I should write a book about my critics/opponents who have demonized, denigrated, and condemned me the most for my being a union member for almost 12 years. During those almost 12 years (1966-1969 and 1971-1980), my federal salary increased from $16.81/hour to $97,395/year in today’s dollars. In my defense, I earned a bachelor’s degree in management from NIU in 1970 and an MBA from Loyola in 1976, I passed the CPA examination on my first attempt in 1979, and I started taking graduate accounting courses at DePaul in 1976.)
https://www.ft.com/content/39a68887-0277-4be8-bc1e-310601522f0a
(FROM THE ARTICLE: US President Joe Biden made a remarkable speech at the end of March: “I’m a union guy. I support unions. Unions built the middle class. It’s about time they start to get a piece of the action.” He said this at a carpentry trade school outside the rust-belt city of Pittsburgh, which only served to underscore the message. The idea that a political leader in an Anglosphere country might be interested in what unions have to say felt like a seismic shift — and one that took me back. One of the great stories of my adult life has the widespread acceptance that it is all right, even desirable, to be filthy rich.)

MANAGEMENT TODAY
— Should you ban political talk at work? – Orianna Rosa Royle (DIERSEN: While I worked for the Democrats who ran the federal government 1966-1969 and 1971-1997, my Democrat superiors, supervisors, coworkers, and subordinates frequently asked me questions to get/confirm information to use against me. For example, that I was a Republican, that I was conservative, that I opposed political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, and age discrimination, that I opposed promotion of dependency on government, that I opposed dependency on charity, that I opposed the promotion of LGBTQ, abortion, mass/illegal immigration, booze, gambling, pot, and other vices, and diminishment of First and Second Amendment rights, that I avoided the draft, that I had been baptized, raised, and confirmed as a Missouri Synod Lutheran, that I was 100% German national origin, that my ancestors had been America since 1844, that I had lived in Crete 1948-1972 and Wheaton since 1978, that my wife and I had given up trying to have children, that we did not adopt, and that we did not become foster parents, that I bought a new 1972 Corvette in 1971, a 1962 Chevy Impala SS collector car in 1989, and a 1968 Dodge Charger R/T collector car in 1994, that my wife and I bought a home in Wheaton in 1978 and that we had one built there in 1984, etc.)

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 to resign in 1969 and disallowed my sick leave requests in 1969 and 1968.)

— Colleges Pushed Anew for Reparations for Slavery, Racism – AP (DIERSEN: Affirmative Action, Diversity, and Inclusion are reparations. How much more reparations will the college(s) that you graduated from agree to pay in reparations? I attended UIC 1966-1968 and 1971, NIU 1969-1970, Loyola 1972-1976, DePaul 1976-1980, Roosevelt 1980-1981, and IIT 1992-1997. I earned a bachelor’s degree in management from NIU in 1970, an MBA from Loyola in 1976, a master’s degree in accounting from DePaul in 1980, and a master’s degree in finance from IIT in 1997. Will UIC, NIU, Loyola, DePaul, Roosevelt, and IIT apologize for admitting me instead of Blacks?)
https://news.wttw.com/2021/05/15/colleges-pushed-anew-reparations-slavery-racism
(FROM THE ARTICLE: For Brown University students, the Ivy League college’s next step in its yearslong quest to atone for its legacy of slavery is clear: Pay up. Nearly two decades after the Providence, Rhode Island, institution launched its much-lauded reckoning, undergraduate students this spring voted overwhelmingly for the university to identify the descendants of slaves that worked on campus and begin paying them reparations. At the University of Georgia, community activists want the school to contribute to Athens’ efforts to atone for an urban renewal project that destroyed a Black community in the 1960s to make way for college dorms. And at Georgetown University in Washington, D.C., there’s growing dissatisfaction among some slave descendants about the Catholic institution’s pioneering reparations efforts. Nearly a year after the killing of George Floyd by Minneapolis police sparked the latest national reckoning on racism, student and community activists from New England to the Deep South are demanding institutions take more ambitious steps to atone for past sins — from colonial-era slavery to more recent campus expansion projects that have pushed out entire communities of color.)

SAND POINT READER
— Two Fourths equal a whole lot of trouble. As the city lays the debate to rest, how exactly did the 2021 Fourth of July parade become a hearsay showdown? – Zach Hagadone
https://sandpointreader.com/two-fourths-equal-a-whole-lot-of-trouble/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Perhaps it’s fitting that a holiday commemorating the commencement of a world-historical conflict should generate controversy. So it has been with Sandpoint’s traditional Fourth of July celebration — canceled by its longtime sponsors, the Lions Club, in 2020 in an abundance of caution over COVID-19 exposure and picked up by an independent group, Sandpoint Independence Day. The nonprofit SID organization, helmed by local conservative activists Steve Wasylko and Ron Korn, purported to “save” Independence Day in 2020, making claims that the Lions Club — which had put on the parade and fireworks show for nearly 70 years — had “pass[ed] the baton.” In that spirit, SID again applied for a permit to put on the parade in 2021, which the city denied. SID organizers then appealed the denial, arguing their case before City Council at its May 5 regular meeting. “They [the Lions] wanted to give this up,” Wasylko told the council, with Korn adding: “We were told by Janice [Rader, current vice president] that the Lions Club was no longer interested in hosting the event.”)

He worked in the office of a nasty chemical plant in Chicago Heights. He almost always worked second jobs to pay the family’s bills. He did not buy a new car until he was 45 years old and it was a bottom of the line 2-door Chevy. He died suddenly of heart failure in 1969 when he was 47 and I was 21.

https://www.mcdonoughvoice.com/story/opinion/columns/2021/05/06/seniors-group-grades-illinois-reps-congress/4971114001/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Eleven of Illinois’ House Representatives in Washington scored 100% in the Alliance for Retired Americans’ analysis of Congress’ 2020 voting record, released last week. Two of the 18 in the state’s delegation received scores below 20: John Shimkus (R- Collinsville), was given a 13, and Darin LaHood (R-Peoria) got an 11. The “grades” were determined on how the Representatives voted on 10 key votes, as set by the ARA, during the second session of the 116th Congress, January-December 2020. Besides LaHood, two other downstate Representatives – Cheri Bustos (D-Moline) and Adam Kinzinger (R-Channahon) – deserve reporting. Bustos received a 100; Kinzinger was given a 33. (On the Senate side, Illinois Democratic Sens. Tammy Duckworth and Dick Durbin both were scored at 100. It’s noteworthy that last year’s GOP-majority Senate took no action except for four referrals to committees on all this legislation.)

FED WEEK
— What it Takes to Be an Average Retiree (DIERSEN: my Civil Service Retirement System pension is tremendously less because my Democrat GAO superiors succeeded in forcing me to take their early retirement “offer ” in 1997 when I was 49 years old. Previously, they had given 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 $20,361 (21%) pay cut in today’s dollars to transfer from IRS to GAO in 1980.)
https://www.fedweek.com/publishers-perspective/what-it-takes-to-be-an-average-retiree/
(FROM THE ARTICLE; The average monthly benefit under CSRS is about $4,000, which comes to $48,000 on an annual basis. The “median” CSRS benefit—the point where half are below and half are above—is about $3,500, $42,000 on an annual basis. The FERS defined benefits are smaller—an average of about $1,600 monthly and a median of about $1,300, for annual figures of $19,200 and $15,600—because that program also includes Social Security as a basic element. The average Social Security benefit is about $1,500 a month, $18,000 annually; the average for federal employees likely is higher because the federal salary average is higher than the overall national average, due mainly to differences in the nature of the work and educational levels.)

DAILY TORCH
— After Trump banned for life on Facebook, is today’s social tyranny creating the conditions for one-party rule? – Robert Romano (DIERSEN: I should write a book about those who discriminate against Republicans. I would focus on those who have lots of religious, government, political, and/or financial clout in Illinois, DuPage County, Milton Township, and Wheaton.)
https://dailytorch.com/2021/05/after-trump-banned-for-life-on-facebook-is-todays-social-tyranny-creating-the-conditions-for-one-party-rule/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Narrowly expanding the franchise of protected groups under civil rights law to include political affiliation could help preserve liberty and our civil discourse. Interactive computer services could be defined as public accommodations so that social media services cannot be denied on the basis of partisan differences. Institutions like banking could also be prevented from engaging in political de-platforming. Common sense exceptions could be added, for example excluding employment hiring for exclusive organizations like political parties and organizations. One thing is certain. If Congress does not begin treating the political system on the internet and elsewhere as a civil right the civil society depends on, then we will soon have a tyrannical one-party system. You’ve been warned.)

— How Much Money Do Millennials Make? It’s No Longer a Taboo Question. Unlike with previous generations, young adults find it freeing to talk about their personal finances. – Kirsten Narula (DIERSEN: According to my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes, if you are a non-veteran White male federal employee, you are a disgusting loser if you do not make GS-13 (currently $102,188) by age 25, GS-14 (currently $120,755) by age 30, GS-15 (currently $142,041) by age 35, and Senior Executive Service (currently $172,500) by age 40. I made GS-7 (currently $48,445) when I was 22, GS-9 (currently $59,258) when I was 23, GS-11 (currently $71, 687) when I was 24, GS-12 (currently $85,935) when I was 25, GS-13 when I was 32, and GS-13 Step 10 (currently $132,845) when I was 49.)

— Should Young Adults Stretch Financially to Buy a Home? Yes, interest rates are still low. The counterargument: It’s a sellers’ housing market. (DIERSEN: What enabled you to buy your first home? I bought a new town home in University Park September 1972 when I was 24 years old. The down payment came from what I had earned a) working for the Firestone Store in Chicago Heights full-time August 1970-March 1971 and then part-time since March 1971 and b) working for IRS in Chicago and then in Harvey since June 1971. That money also enabled me to buy a new 1972 Corvette in October 1971 and to pay tuition and books for graduate business courses at Loyola starting in January 1972. I had graduated debt-free from NIU August 1970 owning a 1969 Dodge Charger SE. The money for tuition, books, and room and board came from what I earned delivering mail for the Park Forest Post Office November 1966-September 1969.)

— Is Trump back on Facebook? Facebook Oversight Board will rule whether his ban lifts or becomes permanent today. – Jessica Guynn (DIERSEN: What might encourage my critics/opponents to lift their ban on me and on my GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters? What if I started letting them manipulate and/or dominate me? What if I started glorifying and praising them? What if I started pandering to them? What if I started serving as one of their operatives or dupes? What if I started covering up their wrongdoing? What if I started giving them money? I should write a book about my critics/opponents and how they ban me and how they ban my GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters.)

NPR
— The Racist Architecture Of Homeownership: How Housing Segregation Has Persisted – AILSA CHANG, JONAKI MEHTA, CHRISTOPHER INTAGLIATA (DIERSEN: My critics/opponents have always hinted/implied/argued/shouted that those who share my demographics (White, male, non-veteran, old (born in 1948), heterosexual, conservative, Republican, Protestant (baptized, raised, and confirmed as a Missouri Synod Lutheran), 100% German American, Crete resident 1948-1972, my ancestors have been in America since 1844) are racists. University Park has always been integrated. In 1972, when I was 24 years old, I bought a new town home in University Park. What do my critics/opponents have to say about that? In Chicagoland, federal agencies employ far more minorities than other employers. I worked for the Park Forest Post Office 1966-1969. I worked for IRS in its downtown Chicago offices in 1971 and 1973-1980, its Harvey office 1972-1973, and its 63rd and Halsted and Joliet offices 1973-1974. I worked for GAO in its downtown Chicago offices 1980-1997. Many, if not most, and at times, virtually all of my superiors, supervisors, coworkers, and subordinates were minorities. What do my critics/opponents have to say about that? I should write a book about my many critics/opponents who have done everything that they can to stay away from minorities. They never would have bought real estate in University Park and they never would have worked for the federal government.)
