Am I also correct that United has covered up this DEI disaster and many others?” she added.

The US also entered 2024 with its smallest military in more than eight decades. – CLAUDIA AORAHA (COMMENT: Democrats run the federal government. All during the almost 30 years that I worked for those Democrats, they lowered hiring, retention, and promotion requirements so that they could hire, retain, and promote Democrats who were minority, female, younger, and/or veteran. That ever-increasingly rendered the following worthless: a) my job-related bachelor’s degree (NIU-management-1970), b) my three job-related master’s degrees (Loyola-business-1976, DePaul-accounting-1980, and IIT-finance-1997), c) my six job-related professional certifications (accounting-1979, internal auditing-1981, fraud examination-1990, government financial management-1994, financial services auditing-1996, and forensic accounting-1997), and d) my job-related professional license (CPA-1981).)

WIREPOINTS
— Chicago has demanded future generations pay for its unaffordable pension debts (COMMENT: Are you in line to get a pension? I was in line to get a Civil Service Retirement System (CSRS) pension since I was 18 years old in 1966. Are you getting a pension? I have gotten a CSRS pension since my Democrat superiors forced me to take their early retirement “offer” when I was 49 years old in 1997. I should write a book about my critics/opponents who continue to use my CSRS pension against me the most. They hint/imply/argue/shout that my CSRS pension is far too generous because I was grossly overpaid. To do that, they ignore, dismiss, and/or belittle the fact while I worked for the federal government for almost 30 years, I got promoted in 1973, 1973, 1974, and 1986, I paid 7% of my salary into the CSRS, and I earned a) a job-related bachelor’s degree in 1970, b) job-related master’s degrees in 1976, 1980, and 1997, c) job-related professional certifications in 1979, 1981, 1990, 1994, 1996, and 1997, and d) a job-related professional license in 1981. I might still be working for the federal government and paying 7% of my salary into the CSRS if my Democrat superiors had not forced me to take their early retirement “offer” when I was 49 years old in 1997.)

WGN RADIO
— The importance of putting together a budget – Ashley Bihun (COMMENT: When I ran for the open Milton Township Republican Organization (MTRO) Treasurer office in 2004, I had served as the Treasurer for the a) Association of Government Accountants Chicago Chapter for 3 years, b) American Association of Political Consultants Midwest Chapter for 3 years, and c) Illinois Center Right Coalition for 2 years. I had passed the CPA examination on my first attempt, I had earned a master’s degree in accounting from DePaul, and I had become a licensed CPA. I had worked for GAO for almost 18 years and for IRS for almost 9 years. I stressed to MTRO members that budgeting was a very important planning exercise. I stressed that I would draft a budget for MTRO each year, get the other MTRO officers to approve a draft budget, get the MTRO membership to approve a budget, and get MTRO to follow that budget. But my opponent for that MTRO Treasurer office, his operatives, and his dupes, including two CPAs, not only viciously attacked budgeting, they viciously attacked me personally. Just before the vote, they demonized, denigrated, and condemned me as not being a team player and that I irritate everyone around me. My opponent got 69 votes and I got only 13 votes. Since 2002, MTRO has punished me for Jim Ryan’s losing to Blagojevich because I supported Patrick O’Malley in the Republican gubernatorial primary. Since 2004, MTRO has punished me for my not covering up the wrongdoing of a MTRO officer and for Andrew McKenna losing the Republican U.S. Senate primary because I allegedly rigged a major MTRO straw poll. Since 2006, MTRO has punished me for Judy Baar Topinka’s losing to Blagojevich. MTRO continues to punish me for the aforesaid.)

https://nypost.com/2023/06/10/marco-rubios-new-book-explains-how-globalization-transformed-immigration/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Sen. Marco Rubio (R-Fla.) explains how these newcomers served as convenient sources of cheap labor — while upended long-standing patterns of assimilation and integration. . .many elites believe “it is better to import cheap labor and buy off Americans with cash welfare programs provided by the government” . . . For decades now, since our elites began to believe that global market integration was an inherent good that should take precedence over all else — particularly patriotism, national unity, and the welfare of American workers — this country has prioritized the importation of cheap labor. . .But not every business could be exported, which meant Wall Street simply figured out how to import cheap labor, much of it coming from illegal immigrants. This was a slower, more subtle process. . .More often than not, it is about jobs Wall Street doesn’t want Americans to do because hiring Americans would require higher wages and better working conditions. To them, it is better to import cheap labor and buy off Americans with cash welfare programs provided by the government.)

The author of Money Magazine’s February 1978 4-page article on me was very puzzled why I did not try to hide the fact that I was 100% German American and Protestant. In addition to being German American and Protestant, both Trump and I are conservative, Republican, White, male, older. draft avoiders, non-poor, married, and our ancestors have been in America for a long time. In my defense, I have always stressed that my grandfather on my father’s side fought the Germans in WWI, that my uncles on my mother’s side fought the Germans in WWII, and that my father would have fought the Germans in WWII if he had not been 4-F.)

https://townhall.com/tipsheet/miacathell/2023/12/20/will-lawsuit-dei-state-bar-n2632570
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The State Bar of Wisconsin is being sued for promoting discriminatory DEI practices based on race and sexual orientation. Wisconsin Institute for Law and Liberty (WILL) launched a lawsuit Wednesday against the Wisconsin State Bar on behalf of a State Bar member who is compelled to pay mandatory membership dues that functionally fund DEI programming he argues unfairly discriminates against him as well as thousands of Wisconsin attorneys on the basis of racial and sexual identity. Specifically, the State Bar of Wisconsin’s “Diversity Clerkship Program” offers exclusive internship opportunities—ones that should be open to everyone, WILL’s client says—only to certain minority law students or those who self-identify as LGBTQ+. Some of Wisconsin’s largest law firms and government agencies participate in the race- and sexuality-based Diversity Clerkship Program, including the ACLU of Wisconsin, the Milwaukee City Attorney’s Office, and the Wisconsin Department of Justice. The application itself requires prospects to submit personal statements, “an extremely important factor” in the “race-based selection criteria,” detailing how they “contributed to diversity” and have “demonstrat[ed] their commitment to diversity.” . . . WILL additionally argues that the program “advocates for supplanting equal opportunity with equal outcome” and “violates the free speech rights of students by discriminating against those who will not profess a commitment to this [DEI] ideology.”)

— Did NY State Republicans Nominate a Registered Democrat to Replace George Santos? – Lorri Wickenhauser (COMMENT: Ever-increasingly, the more of the following that you are, the more that you are discouraged from running for any kind of government or political office: conservative, Republican, White, male. older, non-veteran, Protestant, German American, and/or if your ancestors have been in America for a long time.)
https://thefederalistpapers.org/opinion/fact-check-ny-state-republicans-nominate-registered-democrat-replace-george-santos
(FRM THE ARTICLE: Mazi Melesa Pilip would seem to check all the boxes for a solid GOP candidate, Politico reported. She is a two-term Republican member of the Nassau County Legislature who has championed law enforcement and low property taxes. She is also a pro-Israel Orthodox Jew and has even served in the Israel Defense Forces. However, Pilip has been a registered Democrat since 2012, Politico reported, citing public records it had “uncovered.” “The Nassau County Board of Elections’ spokesperson called [Politico] on Pilip’s behalf and confirmed she is an enrolled Democrat.” Commenting on the situation, the outlet noted, “It seems like New York’s 3rd Congressional [District] is destined for drama.” Business Insider reported that the Ethiopian-born Pilip “professes to be” a Republican, despite the evidence uncovered by Politico. In securing the New York GOP nod, she “beat out a slew of other hopeful GOP nominees,” including a U.S. Air Force veteran and another IDF veteran. Pilip will be running against Democrat Tom Suozzi, a former House member who stepped down in 2022 to run for governor of New York. He lost the Democratic nomination to incumbent Gov. Kathy Hochul. Politico described Pilip as a “firebrand” and added that she is “a popular figure in Great Neck, where she lives with her seven children.” The special election to fill Santos’ vacant seat will be held on Feb. 13, according to Business Insider.)

https://www.newsmax.com/newsmax-tv/chris-christie-donald-trump-2024/2023/12/01/id/1144497/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Even though former New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie has been a pit bull in attacking Donald Trump during the Republican presidential primary season, he told Newsmax Friday it is not because of any personal animosity against the former president. “Let me make it clear: I don’t hate Donald Trump,” Christie told “Eric Bolling The Balance.” “I just don’t believe he’s fit to be president of the United States. There’s a big difference between that. There’s no personal hatred on my part at all.”)

— 10 Job-Seeking Strategies That Work – Carmelina Piedra (COMMENT: If you had been me, what job-seeking strategy would you have used after my Democrat GAO superiors forced me to take their early retirement “offer” in 1997 when I was 49 years old? How would you have dealt with that adverse action and their previous adverse actions? They always ranked me in the bottom half of my coworkers for pay-for-performance purposes. They never promoted me to GS-14 and they delayed my promotions to GS-11, GS-12, and GS-13. They assigned me to audits of IRS for only 3 (1986-1988) of the almost 18 years that I worked for them. They forced me to take a $21,863/year (21%) pay cut in today’s dollars to transfer from IRS in 1980, a downgrade from GS-12 Step 5 to GS-9 Step 10. They ignored, downplayed, dismissed, belittled a) my becoming a Certified Forensic Accountant in 1997, Financial Services Auditor in 1996, Government Financial Manager in 1994, and Fraud Examiner in 1990, b) my becoming a licensed CPA in 1981, c) my passing the Certified Internal Auditor examination on my first attempt in 1981 and my passing the CPA examination on my first attempt in 1979, d) my earning a master’s degree in finance from IIT in 1997, a master’s degree in accounting from DePaul in 1980, and an MBA from Loyola in 1976, and e) my having worked for IRS 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.)

— Why the paucity of men on campus is a problem and the beginnings of how to respond – Clarence Page (COMMENT: Earning college degrees, professional certifications, and professional licenses takes lots of time and effort. I know that because I earned four college degrees, six professional certifications, and a professional license. As employers give more and more and more preference to females, that is, as employers discriminate more and more and more against males, more and more and more males are discouraged from earning college degrees, professional certifications, and licenses. But for me, it was the opposite — it motivated me to earn them. I should write a book about the tremendous preference that my federal employers (GAO 1980-1997, IRS 1971-1980, and Post Office 1966-1969) gave my female superiors, supervisors, coworkers, and subordinates. All my female coworkers who my superiors promoted over me were Democrats who a) had less job-related work experience than I had, b) had less job-related education than I had, c) had no or fewer professional certifications than I had, and/or d) had no professional license like I had. I earned a job-related bachelor’s degree when I was 21 (NIU-management) and job-related master’s degrees when I was 27 (Loyola-business), 31 (DePaul-accounting), and 48 (IIT-finance). I earned job-related professional certifications when I was 30 (CPA), 32 (Certified Internal Auditor), 41 (Certified Fraud Examiner), 45 (Certified Government Financial Manager), 47 (Certified Financial Services Auditor), and 48 (Forensic Accountant). I earned a job-related professional license (CPA) when I was 32.)

— Illinois Republicans criticize Chicago mayor’s rhetoric over border crisis – Andrew Hensel
https://www.thecentersquare.com/illinois/article_1aee1112-8f0e-11ee-8e9d-234e6460e630.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Johnson on Tuesday criticized Republicans in regards to the border and suggested that the “right wing” was dishing out payback. “It is abysmal, and it’s an affront for everything that is good about this country, for the extremism in this country to use people as political tools to settle political scores for something that happened 400 years ago,” Johnson said. Johnson continued by questioning the sanctity of the party. “That’s what this particular party has been about,” Johnson said. “This is the same Republican right-wing extremism that stormed the Capitol. It’s the same right-wing extremism that refuses to accept the results of the Civil War. It’s raggedy, it’s disrespectful,” Johnson said. “It’s disrespectful, its mean spirited, it’s an unclean spirit.” Illinois Republicans responded to Johnson’s words, with some suggesting a history lesson for the mayor. “His statements are not even grounded in reality. I would recommend a history lesson for the mayor of Chicago, good grief,” state Rep. Adam Niemerg, R-Dieterich, told The Center Square. “To say Republicans don’t accept the results of the Civil War, I believe Abraham Lincoln was a Republican.” State Rep. Martin McLaughlin, R-Barrington Hills, fired back at Johnson. “The Republican Party was founded to end government Bureaucracy and to end slavery. Brandon Johnson and J.B. Pritzker are both obviously not students of history and are hoping many of their followers never get off Tik-Tok to discover accurate historical information,” McLaughlin said in a statement. “Independents, moderate Democrats, and Republicans are equally appalled at their recent statements.” Last month, Pritzker said supporting non-citizen arrivals has nothing to do with sanctuary status and the state would remain open. “Sanctuary status has to do with undocumented immigrants who are here,” Pritzker said. “Not people who are asylum seekers who are in a whole different category.” According to U.S. Rep. Nick Langworthy, R-New York, Democratic leadership and the inaction of President Joe Biden in regard to the border is what led to this influx of people and the use of taxpayer dollars to cover the costs. “This is just one small glimpse at a completely avoidable humanitarian disaster brought not by big bad Republicans in the House but by an administration that refuses to enforce our immigration laws and has flung the door wide open at our southern border,” Langworthy said. Johnson said the Republican backlash comes from targeted hate. “This is nothing new,” Johnson said. “Everyone knows that the right-wing extremism in this country has targeted Democratically run cities, and quite frankly, they have been quite intentional about going after Democratically ran cities that are led by people of color.” Illinois state Rep. Brad Halbrook, R-Shelbyville, said Johnson should not be taken seriously. “Mayor Johnson is a clown. He is not a serious person, and he does not deserve a response to his inane babbling,” Halbrook said in a statement. “He was elected thanks to the massive financial backing of the very public sector union leadership that has made Chicago’s finances a complete disaster. If Mayor Johnson is the answer, it must have been an extremely stupid question.” Last week, Chicago saw 25 more buses of migrants arrive. New York is seeing more than 2,500 arrivals a week.)

GOPUSA ILLINOIS
— During the last two days, I took time out from putting GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters together and hand delivered my precinct letter to the homes in the newly drawn DuPage County Milton Township Precinct 59 that have at least one registered Republican voter. In that letter, I announced my candidacy for Republican Precinct Committeeman. So far, I have delivered to the homes that have been in my old Precinct 9 since 1999 and those homes west of the Illinois Prairie Path that were in that precinct 1999-2015. I had great political conversations with voters who were out raking leaves. So far, I have 17 signatures on my nominating petitions. The new Precinct 59 extends to the south and has 370 registered Republican voters in it. I am discouraged from circulating nominating petitions for Republican candidates because far too many of them have blamed me for their defeats. I should write a book about those candidates who have blamed me the most for their defeats. I would focus on those candidates on ballots in my precinct since 2000. I would focus on those candidates who I did the most to help elect. I would focus on those candidates who have taken the most/biggest adverse actions against me. I would focus on those candidates who ended my role as the Republican fundraiser for Wheaton Independence Day parades and fireworks in 2021. – Dave Diersen

(FROM THE ARTICLE: There are different degrees of how well you know people. This particular measure is a broad one. Asked how many close friends they have, about half of Americans say three or fewer, according to a 2021 survey. The British anthropologist Robin Dunbar, drawing on studies of the brain sizes of humans and other primates, estimates a person can only maintain about 150 relationships. The so-called Dunbar number, he has said, “applies to quality relationships, not to acquaintances.” A Pew Research study found adults on Facebook had an average of 338 friends on the site.)

Darin LaHood as a “former moderate” who “raced to the unreasonable Right” and tied himself to “the most unethical and least transparent president in history.” LaHood still represents parts of Bloomington-Normal, and his father, Ray LaHood, was a famously moderate Republican figure. “Darin LaHood is your quintessential average Republican congressman. And I don’t mean that pejoratively. He’s somebody whose goal is to get re-elected, to represent his district, and to climb that political ladder,” Kinzinger said.)
