— Can We Do Anything About America’s Decline? The remedies are agreed upon, but the needed medicine is feared more than the disease. Because today, the government is the cause of our many crises. – Victor Davis Hanson (COMMENT: My outstanding parents did not have enough money to send me to college. Neither of them attended college. My father was the first of my ancestors to earn a high school diploma. My mother never attended high school. While I was able to take college preparatory courses, to get an ACT score of 24, to get accepted by UIC, to work my way through college, and to earn a bachelor’s degree in management from NIU in 1970, my GPA suffered.)
https://amgreatness.com/2023/04/16/can-we-do-anything-about-americas-decline/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Race is no longer an accurate barometer of either victimhood or legitimate grievance. If “affirmative” action were to continue, it should be based entirely on class considerations, not the current system of Elizabeth Warrenesque fakery or delusions that the elite children of Eric Holder, the Obamas, the Duchess of Sussex, or LeBron James are in some need of compensatory privilege for college admissions, appointments, or hiring.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: Thus far, the tragic shooting in Dadeville appears to not involve an “angry white man,” which the left is quick to blame for mass shootings, though as I’ve reported, this is not the norm. We can expect the usual responses from the libs that guns, not criminals who use them to kill, are bad. The left will call for the end of “gun violence” even as big, blue cities refuse to punish the people causing so much chaos. It’s all a ruse to take your guns. Leftists will gladly sacrifice thousands of lives to disarm We the People.)

NBC NEWS
— Democrats say “Alarming rise in youth gun deaths breaks down very differently by race” and “A closer look at the numbers reveals even more alarming trends, especially among young African Americans.” What percent of African Americans are killed by African Americans?
https://www.nbcnews.com/meet-the-press/data-download/alarming-rise-youth-gun-deaths-breaks-differently-race-rcna79916
(FROM THE ARTICLE: And even more remarkable than the jump in gun deaths was the racial breakdown. In the 2021 data, the Pew Research Center found that Black children were hit much harder than other young people. Among African American children, the rate of gun deaths per 100,000 people was 11.8. That was more than five times the figure for other racial and ethnic groups. For white children and Hispanics, the figure was 2.3 per 100,000, and for Asian children, it was even lower, at 0.9. The difference in the 2021 numbers suggests a very different problem and challenge among Black children, which is confirmed when look at what drove gun deaths by race. For Black youths, the numbers were driven, heavily, by homicides. Among young African Americans, more than 8 in 10 gun deaths were homicides, while fewer than 10% were suicides. The numbers were flipped for white youths. Two-thirds of all gun deaths among that group were suicides, while fewer than a quarter were homicides. Such numbers may help explain why different lawmakers see the gun problem so differently.)
— Democrats say “Congress sees a rare window of opportunity to regulate Big Tech.” My critics/opponents want the leaders of the following to regulate my GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters, that is, to stop me from sending out those newsletters, but failing that, to dictate which articles I can include links to in those newsletters and to stop me from commenting on those articles: Illinois Republican Party (IRP), DuPage County Republican Central Committee (DCRCC), and Milton Township Republican Organization (MTRO). My critics/opponents a) argue that IRP, DCRCC, and MTRO should have the power to do the aforesaid because I am a Republican Precinct Committeeman (RPC), b) argue that MTRO made a big mistake when it appointed me as a RPC in 1999, and c) argue that MTRO would never have appointed me as a RPC since then.

When I transferred from IRS to GAO in 1980 when I was 31 years old, my Democrat GAO superiors, supervisors, coworkers, and subordinates did not want me to transfer, but failing that, they wanted me to transfer as a GS-4 (currently $37,537/year) intern, that is, to suffer a $67,046/year (64%) pay cut in today’s dollars. They painted what GAO Analysts do as being a unique “trade or occupation.” They would not have done that if I had been a Democrat, minority, female, or veteran. They viciously demonized, denigrated, and condemned the fact a) that I had 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 $92,279-$104,583/year, b) that much of what IRS Revenue Officers do is similar to what GAO Analysts do, c) that I had passed the CPA examination on my first attempt in 1979, d) that I had earned an MBA from Loyola in 1976, and e) that I had almost completed the requirements for a master’s degree in accounting from DePaul. They were furious a) that I suffered a pay cut of only $21,863/year (21%) in today’s dollars to transfer and b) that I transferred with me almost 12 years of federal seniority, 30 days of unused vacation days, and 130 unused sick days.)

— There Certainly Was an Insurrection, But Not by Trump – Brian C. Joondeph
https://www.americanthinker.com/articles/2022/12/there_certainly_was_an_insurrection_but_not_by_trump.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Here are his exact words, “I know that everyone here will soon be marching over to the Capitol building to peacefully and patriotically make your voices heard.” Trump went further tweeting, “I am asking for everyone at the U.S. Capitol to remain peaceful. No violence!” How exactly was this a call for a violent overthrow of the government? This was not a call for violence, revolt, or rebellion. In fact, President Trump authorized National Guard troops, but only Speaker Pelosi or D.C. Mayor Muriel Bowser could order deployment. And neither did. The January 6 Commission ignored this. Capitol Police welcomed protesters inside the U.S. Capitol building and the only death was at the hands of a Capitol Police officer, fatally shooting an unarmed female military veteran. As the FBI admitted to embedding informants in the January 6 protests, it begs the question of the FBI’s role in inciting this so-called “insurrection.” How did the FBI to know to place informants there? It takes months to train and embed informants, suggesting that the FBI knew these protests would happen, well in advance, but did nothing to stop or prevent them. Or did they play a role in creating these protests through their informants? Did the FBI aid and abet this “insurrection”? Questioning or challenging election results is hardly unusual. Just ask Al Gore who mounted all sorts of legal and media challenges in 2020. Or Democrats who contested Trump’s 2016 electoral college victory. Were these insurrections?)

https://townhall.com/columnists/alanjosephbauer/2022/12/25/for-the-people-n2617563
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Leaders at all levels of government make decisions that can impact the lives of the governed but they themselves may not feel any ill effects of their actions. A member of the San Francisco Fed board blurted out that she makes enough money not to feel inflation. And think about it, for millionaires and above, the necessity to pay twice as much for filling up the car or steaks being 50% more expensive than a year ago means nothing. What are hundreds or thousands of dollars in extra expenses when one’s daily investment income is far greater? And think of those in favor of America’s porous and open border. Are they affected by the open border? Are their towns overwhelmed with illegal aliens who take up enormous local resources? Is their local airport, like the one in El Paso, filled with people sleeping on the floor? Martha’s Vineyard did not last 24 hours with a handful of illegal aliens flown in from Florida.)

— COMMENT: Democrats say “For Newly Arrived New Yorkers, a Chance to Celebrate.” My German American ancestors on my father’s side arrived in Chicago in 1844. I wonder how they were received. They worked in a brick factory for 10 years and then homesteaded a farm in southeast Crete Township. According Jesse White, “Over the period 1833-1871 Chicago experienced rapid economic expansion and this growth with its accompanying prosperity was the central concern of the general population. Politically, the national issues of slavery and States’ rights dominated, with the majority opposing the institution of slavery and its expansion. The social development of the city was many-faceted. Foreign-born immigrants came to equal the native-born population; abject poverty contrasted with spectacular affluence; and social order was unevenly imposed as a boom town evolved into a metropolis. When Chicago was incorporated as a town by the state legislature in 1833, its population was approximately 300. By 1871, when only a quarter of the nation’s population lived in urban areas and a little under nine percent lived in centers with populations over 250,000, Chicago had grown to 334,270. It then ranked behind only New York, Philadelphia, and St. Louis. Its phenomenal growth was due to its geographical location, developments in technology, and the westward expansion of the nation in general.” SEE: https://www.ilsos.gov/departments/archives/teaching_packages/early_chicago/home.html and “In 1844, Chicago’s population was approximately 8,000. . .The Chicago Theater opened in 1839. Taverns were plentiful and the city had a few fine restaurants such as the Lake House at Michigan and North Water which offered printed menus, napkins, and a varied cuisine.” SEE: https://www.ilsos.gov/departments/archives/teaching_packages/early_chicago/doc9.html )

Back in the good old days, those who shared my demographics (conservative, Republican, White, male, heterosexual, Protestant, German American, and those whose ancestors have been in America for a long time) could be optimistic about their future, but not today. Ever-increasingly Democrats, Libertarians, Greens, Independents, and RINOs take opportunities away from those who share my demographics and give those opportunities to those who do not share my demographics. Back in the good old days, UIC, NIU, Loyola, DePaul, and IIT admitted me, but I doubt that they would today. Back in the good old days, I got jobs doing the following, but I doubt that I would today: doing yard work, delivering newspapers, washing dishes, cleaning golf shoes, chipped slag, pumped gasoline, delivering mail, working on an automobile assembly line and as a security guard, selling tires, automotive services, and major appliances, collected delinquent taxes, and auditing federal agencies.)

— Flurry of New Laws Move Blue and Red States Further Apart. A wave of legislation, particularly in the West, is making states “not only a little different but radically different,” says one expert on government. – Shawn Hubler and Jill Cowan
(COMMENT: Ever-increasingly, to vote for a Democrat or for a RINO is to flush those who are the following down the toilet: law enforcement officers, Trump supporters, conservative, patriotic, Republican, American, White, male, older, heterosexual, married, non-veteran, non-poor, gun owners, Christian, Protestant, Italian American, German American, and/or those whose ancestors have been in America for a long time.)

— FRONT PAGE: Covid and Diabetes, Colliding in a Public Health Train Wreck. After older people and nursing home residents, no group perhaps has been harder hit by the pandemic than people with diabetes. Experts hope policymakers will take notice, and finally get serious about tackling the nation’s diabetes crisis. – Andrew Jacobs
(COMMENT: I have had type 2 diabetes at least since 2011 and it is currently not under control.)
https://www.nytimes.com/2022/04/03/health/diabetes-covid-deaths.html
(COMMENT: The Donners see little mystery in why they fared so differently: Mr. Donner has diabetes, a chronic disease that hobbles the body’s ability to regulate blood sugar and inexorably wreaks havoc on circulation, kidney function and other vital organs. After older people and nursing home residents, perhaps no group has been harder hit by the pandemic than people with diabetes. Recent studies suggest that 30 to 40 percent of all coronavirus deaths in the United States have occurred among people with diabetes, a sobering figure that has been subsumed by other grim data from a public health disaster that is on track to claim a million American lives sometime this month. People with diabetes are especially vulnerable to severe illness from Covid, partly because diabetes impairs the immune system but also because those with the disease often struggle with high blood pressure, obesity and other underlying medical conditions that can seriously worsen a coronavirus infection. “It’s hard to overstate just how devastating the pandemic has been for Americans with diabetes,” said Dr. Giuseppina Imperatore, who oversees diabetes prevention and treatment at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Diabetes patients hospitalized with Covid spend more time in the I.C.U., are more likely to be intubated and are less likely to survive, according to several studies, one of which found that 20 percent of hospitalized coronavirus patients with diabetes died within a month of admission.)

FORBES
— Dr. Anthony Fauci’s Retirement Pay Will Exceed $350,000 Per Year – The Largest In U.S. Federal Government History – Adam Andrzejewski
(COMMENT: In 1997, when I was 49 years old, my GS-13 Step 10 GAO salary was $132,845/year in today’s dollars. My Civil Service Retirement System pension is only $54,864/year today a) because my Democrat Post Office superiors forced me to resign in 1969 when I was 20 years old, b) because my Democrat IRS superiors refused to promote me beyond GS-12, c) because my Democrat GAO superiors refused to promote me beyond GS-13, and d) because my Democrat GAO superiors forced me to take their early retirement “offer” in 1997 when I was 49 years old and had worked for the federal government for almost 30 years and had almost a year of unused sick leave. Generally, you reach the 80% limitation when you have worked for the federal government for 42 years not including accumulated sick leave; that would have been 2010 for me. 80% of GS-13 Step 10 salary is $106,276/year. 80% of GS-14 Step 10 salary is $125,583/year. 80% of GS-15 Step 10 salary and Senior Executive Service salary is $138,000/year.)
https://www.forbes.com/sites/adamandrzejewski/2021/12/28/dr-anthony-faucis-retirement-pay-will-exceed-350000-per-year–the-largest-in-us-federal-government-history/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Fauci has 55 years of service as a federal employee. For the second year in a row, Fauci was the most highly compensated federal employee and out earned the president, four star generals, and roughly 4.3 million of his colleagues. As director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID), Fauci earned $434,312 in 2020, the latest year available, up from $417,608 in 2019. . .Federal employees with Fauci’s length of service can retire to earn “80 percent of [their] high-3 average salary, plus credit for [their] sick leave,” according to the U.S. Office of Personnel Management. . .So, at this point, we can use only the last three published years of his salary — 2018: $399,625; 2019: $417,608; and 2020: $434,312 — to calculate his potential retirement earnings. Dr. Fauci earned a total of $1.252 million from 2018-2020 in salary as a federal employee. If he’d left federal service at the end of FY2020, figuring 80% of his highest three-year average, would mean a federal pension of $333,745 a year, plus cost-of-living increases (($1,251,545/3) x 80% = $333,745). However, Fauci’s unpublished FY2021 and FY2022 salaries are likely commensurate, if not higher than his 2020 salary. Therefore, his retirement pay would be closer to $347,500 a year. (($1,302,936/3) x 80%).

CENTER FOR PUBLIC INTEGRITY
— MAY 19, 2014 FLASHBACK: A wealth of advice. Nearly $2 billion flowed through consultants in 2003-2004 federal elections. – Sandy Bergo
(COMMENT: I should write a book about Republican candidates on ballots in my precinct since 2000 who have acted like they took advice from my critics/opponents a) to not read my GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters and b) to blame me and my newsletters for all their problems, for all your problems, for all my problems, and for all of everyone’s problems. Previously, my critics/opponents blamed what I did raising funds from DuPage County Republicans so that they could help sponsor Wheaton’s Independence Day parades and fireworks 2005-2019 and my serving as a) the TAPROOT Republicans of Illinois chairman 2005-2012, b) a Wheaton Chamber of Commerce Government Affairs Committee member 2003-2011, c) the Milton Township Republican Organization webmaster 2008-2010, d) an Illinois Center Right Coalition Steering Committee member 2003-2007, and e) an American Association of Political Consultants Midwest Chapter board member 2000-2004.)
https://publicintegrity.org/politics/elections/campaign-consultants/a-wealth-of-advice/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: In the 2004 federal races, more than $1.85 billion flowed through a professional corps of consultants whose influence plays an important, though largely unexamined, role in the unrelenting escalation of campaign spending, a groundbreaking Center for Public Integrity study has found. The money going to these consultants amounted to more than half of the total spending by presidential candidates, national party committees, general election candidates for Congress, and so-called “527”s — independent political groups. The high cost of running for office raises concerns because fundraising demands can ultimately bind elected officials to special interest donors and lobbyists who help with fundraising — deepening the widely held perception that politicians serve the interests of large contributors over those of constituents. Potential candidates who can’t meet the fundraising demands are shut out.)

(COMMENT: My wife and I have always tried to live on just one of our incomes, granted, on whichever income was the highest. We have always kept close track of our income and expenses. We have always put the maximums into tax-deferred savings accounts. Living on just one of our incomes became much more difficult when my Democrat GAO superiors forced me to take their early retirement “offer” in 1997 when I was 49 years old. That cut my income by 59%/year. Living on just one of our incomes became impossible when my wife retired. Ever-increasingly, we are spending more than my Civil Service Retirement System pension and our Social Security, and ever-increasingly, we have to spend down our retirement savings.)
https://www.gobankingrates.com/money/financial-planning/lifestyle-inflation-can-make-you-broke-even-with-high-income-how-to-not-fall-into-trap/

(FROM THE ARTICLE: Make a Budget. Now that you know exactly what you must spend each month, figure out how you’ll spend the leftover. That’s necessary to break the cycle of lifestyle inflation, said Jennifer Stein, a certified financial planner and director of client engagement at Priebe Wealth. “To escape this, look at the income you’re making, the bills you have, and what is left over,” Stein said. “Then determine how much you will save and make this your priority. Pay yourself first. After you’ve saved, you can use some of the extra disposable income for things you enjoy and can afford, whether it’s an extra vacation throughout the year or fancy date nights in the city.”)

CNBC
— How to keep stress during college from sabotaging your future – Victoria Bell
(COMMENT: What caused you the most stress while you were earning your bachelor’s degree? For me, it was fearing that I would not be able to get a good job when I graduated. Potential employers saw me as being draft bait. They did not believe that my application for a financial hardship draft deferment would be approved. Further, they were under big pressure to hire minorities, females, and veterans. Consequently, I accepted the only job offer that I got. But that job did not really require a bachelor’s degree, it did not provide me with valuable work experience, advancement opportunities were limited, and my boss, who did not hire me, disapproved of my avoiding the draft, having a college degree, being a Republican, being Protestant, and being German American.)

— United Auto Workers reformers prevail in vote to choose president by direct election. – Noam Scheiber
(COMMENT: The members of the Illinois Republican Party (IRP) State Central Committee (SCC) are not directly elected by Republican primary voters. I should write a book about those who want to keep it that way. I would focus on a) past and present leaders of the IRP, DuPage County Republican Central Committee, and Milton Township Republican Organization, b) past and present Republican leaders of Illinois, DuPage County, Milton Township, Wheaton, Wheaton Park District, and Wheaton Chamber of Commerce, c) conservative and religious leaders, and d) Republican candidates on ballots in my precinct, their political consultants, major donors, fundraisers, pollsters, campaign managers, campaign staff members, and campaign volunteers. At the IRP State Convention in 2008, I fought hard for direct election of IRP SCC members. In my book, I would focus on the aforesaid who have taken the strongest adverse actions against me because of that.)

— Public Displays of Resignation: Saying ‘I Quit’ Loud and Proud. People aren’t just leaving their jobs. They are broadcasting it. – Emma Goldberg
(COMMENT: When I graduated from NIU in 1970 with a bachelor’s degree in management, potential employers saw me as being draft bait. They did not believe that my application for a financial hardship draft deferment would be approved. Consequently, I accepted the only job offer that I got. But that job did not really require a bachelor’s degree, it did not provide me with valuable work experience, advancement opportunities were limited, and my boss, who did not hire me, disapproved of my avoiding the draft, having a college degree, being a Republican, being Protestant, and being German American. When I accepted a job offer and gave my boss my 2-week notice, he abruptly and rudely fired me. He would not have done that if I had been a veteran, Democrat, Catholic, or Irish American.)

— Too many DEI plans are ineffective. Here are 3 ways companies can ensure progress. After so much change, firms must do more than make empty promises. – MICHAEL V. NGUYEN
(COMMENT: What would your superiors say that they did to promote DEI? If they were honest, my Democrat GAO superiors would stress that they forced me to retire in 1997 when I was 49 years old, gave me bad job assignments, unfair performance expectations, and unfair 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. My Democrat IRS superiors would stress that they 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 would stress that they forced me to resign in 1969 and disallowed my sick leave requests in 1969 and 1968.)

CAMPAIGN SCHOOL
— 10 Main Reasons Candidates Lose Elections – Brian Floyd
(COMMENT: I should write a book about all the Republican candidates on ballots in my precinct since 2000 who have lost elections and why they lost those elections. I would focus on those who blame me for their losses. I would focus on those who blame my GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters for their losses. I would focus on those who blame what I have done as a Republican Precinct Committeeman for their losses. I would focus on those who blamed what I did raising money from DuPage Republicans so that they could help sponsor Wheaton’s Independence Day parades and fireworks 2005-2019 and as a TAPROOT Republicans of Illinois chairman 2005-2012, Wheaton Chamber of Commerce Government Affairs Committee member 2003-2011, Milton Township Republican Organization webmaster 2008-2010 and 2000-2004, Illinois Center Right Coalition Steering Committee member 2003-2007, and American Association of Political Consultants Midwest Chapter board member 2001-2004 for their losses. I would focus on those who destroy those like me who they cannot manipulate or dominate, who refuse to glorify and praise them, who refuse to pander to them, who refuse to serve as one of their operatives or dupes, who refuse to cover up their wrongdoing, and/or who refuse to give them money. I would focus on their political consultants, their major donors, their pollsters, their campaign managers, their campaign staff members, and their campaign volunteers.)

GLOBE AND MAIL
— APRIL 1, 2021 FLASHBACK: Slowly but surely the government is gathering the media into its ghastly embrace – ANDREW COYNE
(COMMENT: I am an independent political/government reporter/journalist/editor. All the time and money needed to put together GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters and to send them out comes from me. My critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes could hint/imply/argue/shout that because I am a Republican Precinct Committeeman, the leaders of the Milton Township Republican Organization (MTRO), DuPage County Republican Central Committee, and Illinois Republican Party manipulate/dominate me. But the facts show otherwise. I am elected, not appointed. Every 2 years, I continue to run for Republican Precinct Committeeman notwithstanding the many adverse actions that the aforesaid, their operatives, and their dupes have taken against me. Of course, those adverse actions have harmed my ability to get out the vote for Republican candidates on ballots in my precinct. Ever-increasingly, MTRO leaders make it clear a) that they would never appoint me as a Republican Precinct Committeeman and that they blame me for all the problems that they and MTRO have had, are having, and will have.)

They used the flexibility/subjectivity in job assignments, performance expectations, and performance appraisals to delay, if not stop, Republicans from being promoted, and especially Republicans who were White, male, older, non-veteran, conservative, married, childless, non-poor, gun owners, Christian, Protestant, German American, and/or those whose ancestors have been in America for a long time.)
