— Germany’s Nazi past, and the right-wingers who want to hide it – Editorial (DIERSEN: While I worked for the federal government 1966-1969 and 1971-1997, my Democrat superiors, supervisors, coworkers, and subordinates always reminded my superiors, supervisors, coworkers, and subordinates that I was 100% German national origin. Virtually all my superiors, supervisors, coworkers, and subordinates had loved ones who were killed or injured by Germans during WWI and/or WWII. In my defense, I stressed that all my ancestors had immigrated to northeast Illinois during the 1840s and 1850s, that my grandfather on my father’s side fought the Germans in WWI, that my uncles on my mother’s sides fought the Germans in WWII, and that my father would have fought the Germans in WWII if he had not been 4-F. My critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes have always painted being German national origin and being Missouri Synod Lutheran as being extremely negative.)

— U-46 school board candidates debate ‘racism’ in curriculum – Madhu Krishnamurthy (DIERSEN: Ever-increasingly, anti-Whites run organizations, companies, governments, and countries. Ever-increasingly they demonize, denigrate, and condemn Whites. Ever-increasingly, they blame Whites for all the problems that minorities have had, are having, and will have. Ever-increasingly, they make it clear that they want to get rid of Whites. Ever-increasingly, in fear of anti-Whites or wanting to curry favor with anti-Whites, more and more and more Whites become anti-White themselves.)
http://www.dailyherald.com/article/20170310/news/170319953/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Two of five candidates vying to lead the state’s second-largest school district say a newly adopted high school social studies curriculum promotes “racism against white males” at a forum Thursday. Incumbent board President Donna Smith of Hanover Park, and incumbent trustees Veronica Noland and Cody Holt, both of Elgin, face challengers Melissa Owens of Bartlett and Enoch Essendrop of Elgin for three 4-year term seats on the Elgin Area School District U-46 board April 4 hosted by the district’s Citizens’ Advisory Council. At a February school board meeting, Holt and board member Jeanette Ward voted against adoption of the new curriculum, which Ward said had a “pervasive liberal bias.” Ward quoted the following passage about discrimination from the textbook “Macgruder’s American Government”: “White Americans have been historically reluctant to yield to nonwhite Americans a full and equal place in the social, economic and political life of this nation. Over time, the principal targets of that ethnic prejudice have been African-Americans, Native Americans, Asian-Americans and Hispanic Americans. The white-male-dominated power structure has also been slow to recognize the claims of women to an equal place in American society.” She said it “smacks of racism against white males.” The curriculum was approved by a 5-2 board vote. Essendrop, 19, a student at Providence Baptist College in Elgin running on a similar platform as Holt, said he shared Ward’s perspective. “I can’t believe that we find ourselves in the 21st century still judging people by the color of their skin and not the content of their character,” he said, paraphrasing the Rev. Martin Luther King Jr.’s “I Have a Dream” speech. “We need to stop putting people in different groups and admit that we are 100 percent Americans.” Noland, 50, an alumna of the district’s Hispanic Parent Leadership Institute elected to her first term in April 2013, rejected Ward’s notion. “I believe my fellow board member’s comments are actually quite racist,” she said. “I’m opposed to censorship of materials … you head down the road toward book burning and I am completely opposed to that.” She added, it is wrong to impose a “narrow ideology” over an entire school district. Holt, 25, a 2010 graduate of Larkin High School elected in April 2015 to a 2-year unexpired term, said he would like to see the district adopt “curriculum that presents both sides of any issue, that way students can come to their own conclusions.” “Being able to send your child to a school that sets its own curriculum is where we need to go in the 21st century,” Holt said. Smith, 59, who has served on the board since 2001, said she voted for adopting the curriculum because it went through a process of evaluation. “It has been vetted by a lot of educators,” she said adding, anyone can find something offensive in any textbook. “I have the faith in our educators that they would take those textbooks and supplement them with other resources.” Owens, 48, chairwoman of the U-46 Citizens’ Advisory Council, said she agreed with the board’s decision on the curriculum as well as providing cultural competency training for teachers. “We have to recognize the fact that we have a minority-majority district,” she said adding such training allows teachers to recognize that “students see things through different filters based on their experiences.”)

http://www.lawndalenews.com/2017/03/lt-gov-evelyn-sanguinetti-joins-chicago-bulls-jimmy-butler-to-raise-awareness-about-childhood-hunger/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Lt. Governor Evelyn Sanguinetti joined Chicago Bulls’ Jimmy Butler, Kellogg’s and No Kid Hungry for the “Give a Child a Breakfast” event in downtown Chicago to raise awareness about childhood hunger. “One in five kids in Illinois is hungry. This is an important issue to me because I know what it is like to grow up with food insecurity,” said Lieutenant Governor Evelyn Sanguinetti. “My mother had me when she was only 15, and my parents often had to choose between paying the rent and putting food on the table.” Lieutenant Governor Sanguinetti addressed a group of students from Marshall High School and talked about her own experiences. The students were invited to the “Give a Child a Breakfast” event by Kellogg’s, where they had breakfast, had the opportunity to meet the lieutenant governor and play basketball with Butler. “Child hunger is not an issue isolated to large cities – it is prevalent in all 102 counties in Illinois,” Lieutenant Governor Sanguinetti said. “Breakfast is the most important meal of the day. We want our kids to have access to a healthy breakfast so they can stay alert in the classroom and excel in school.”)

I washed dishes for the minimum wage in the basement of the S.S. Kresges in Chicago Heights during my junior and senior years at Crete-Monee High School. My understanding is a) that I was the first and only White male to hold that job and b) that I held that job longer than anyone else. Was I disadvantaged? Neither of my parents had attended college, my father was the first of his ancestors to earn a high school diploma, and my mother never attended high school. I had Osgood-Schlatter disease (SEE: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Osgood%E2%80%93Schlatter_disease) My vision has never been correctable to 20/20. I have partial red/green color blindness. My father, who fought type 1 diabetes from age 14, worked in the office of a chemical plant in Chicago Heights and almost always worked second jobs, usually playing music, to pay the family’s bills. My mother stayed home and raised my brother and I.)

WSIL
— Media the enemy? Trump is sure an insatiable consumer – AP (DIERSEN: To keep up to date with government and political news and commentary in Illinois, it would be great if Trump would read GOPUSA ILLINOIS emails. But short of that, it would be great if he would have his staff read the emails. Illinois is a very important state.)
http://www.wsiltv.com/story/34711054/media-the-enemy-trump-is-sure-an-insatiable-consumer
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Before most people are out of bed, Donald Trump is watching cable news. Indeed, with Twitter app at the ready, the man who condemns the media as “the enemy of the people” may be the most voracious consumer of news in modern presidential history. Trump usually rises before 6 a.m. and first watches TV in the residence before later moving to a small dining room in the West Wing. A short time later, he’s given a stack of newspapers – including The New York Times, The Wall Street Journal, The Washington Post and, long his favorite, The New York Post – as well as pile of printed articles from other sources including conservative online outlets like Breitbart News. The TVs stay on all day. The president often checks in at lunch and again in the evening, when he retires to the residence, cellphone in hand. It is a central paradox of the Trump presidency. Trump is a faithful newspaper reader who enjoys jousting with reporters, an avid cable TV news viewer who frequently live-tweets what he’s watching, and a reader of websites that have been illuminated by his presidential spotlight, showcasing the at-times conspiratorial corners of the internet. No recent president has been so public about his interest in his media coverage, nor seemed so willing to mobilize the powers of the federal government based on a media report that he has just read, heard or watched. In fact, the power of Trump’s media diet is so potent that White House staffers have, to varying degrees of success, tried to limit his television watching and control some of what he reads. The president’s cable TV menu fluctuates. Fox News is a constant, and he also frequently watches CNN despite deriding it as “fake news.” Though he used to watch “Morning Joe,” a Trump aide said the president has grown frustrated with his coverage on the MSNBC program and has largely stopped. For Trump, watching cable is often an interactive experience. More than dozen times since his election, he has tweeted about what he saw on TV just minutes before.)

I was a government worker for almost 30 years and I have been a government retiree for more than 19 years. From what I see, federal workers/retirees are hated the most, then state worker/retirees, then county workers/retirees, and than municipal workers/retirees. Many millions have not and will not seek a job with the federal government a) because the pay and benefits are terrible, b) because the advancement opportunities are terrible, c) because they lack required education, work experience, professional certifications, and/or professional licenses, d) because they cannot pass an employment examination, e) because they cannot pass a background investigation, f) because they cannot pass a physical examination, g) because they cannot take the demonization, denigration, and condemnation that comes with being a federal employee or federal retiree, and/or h) because they are Republican, White, male, older, and/or non-veteran and they know that the federal government discriminates against its employees who are Republican, White, male, older, and/or non-veteran.)

http://www.politico.com/story/2017/03/democratic-party-realignment-cpac-235806
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Instead of CPAC, it’ll be the Ideas Conference. Instead of at the National Harbor, it’ll be in the main room at the St. Regis Hotel, a few blocks from the White House. Instead of featuring President Donald Trump, it’ll be the first real cattle call of the Democrats nosing around 2020 presidential runs. And it’ll be the Center for American Progress’s biggest move yet to establish itself as both the nexus of the Democratic Party’s future — and a player trying to shape what that future will be. They’re roughly modeling the event on CPAC, the American Conservative Union’s annual gathering that’s become a prime stop for Republican leaders, and which notably gave Donald Trump his first major political platform as he was entering the fray. “So much of our time right now is engaged, and rightfully so, in fighting Trump. On any given day, he issues one affront to progressive values after another,” said CAP president Neera Tanden. “It’s obviously critical that we provide a positive alternative of how we’re going to address the country’s challenges.” Sens. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.), Cory Booker (D-N.J.), Kamala Harris (D-Calif.), Chris Murphy (D-Conn.) and Kirsten Gillibrand (D-N.Y.), Montana Gov. Steve Bullock and Los Angeles Mayor Eric Garcetti are all confirmed to attend, and more are expected to be added to the event, scheduled for May 16.)

POST BULLETIN
— Make federal health program available to all – Martin Schram (DIERSEN: What is your health insurance situation? Because I am a federal retiree, my wife and I have guaranteed membership in the Federal Employees Health Benefits program for the rest of our lives. We pay only $5,763/year for $23,051/year worth of health, dental, and vision insurance. Of course, my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes are beyond furious about that. In my defense, for my wife and I to be eligible for the aforesaid insurance, I worked for the federal government for almost 30 years, almost 3 years for the Post Office, almost 9 years for IRS, and almost 18 years for GAO. In all fairness, my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes should be required to fully disclose their employment history.)
http://www.postbulletin.com/opinion/columnists/schram-make-federal-health-program-available-to-all/article_d80218e7-8b41-5d0c-ad68-8a118e64af61.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Just take the best health insurance that is available to Washington’s elites — the senators and representatives and everyone who works for the federal government — and make it available to everyone in America. The Federal Employees Health Benefits, or FEHB, Program basically allows all of Washington’s elites to enroll in any plan they choose — at very favorable rates (which can be negotiated because of the vast size of the federal plan’s membership). So, if that plan is now the plan for all Americans, what about those who cannot afford to pay for coverage at all? Mike always said provisions must be enacted to assure that the poor will have subsidized coverage. And the near-poor and lower middle classes would receive supplemental aid on a sliding need-based scale. But the beauty of this plan is that it can be done without massively restructuring the entire health sector economy. So that’s where it merits bipartisan backing — yes, even here in the political hate-city of Washington. When the ACA was enacted, it required all legislative branch employees (including senators, representatives and their staffs) to purchase coverage through the ACA networks in their states or Washington, D.C. So your senators and reps can’t buy into FEHB anymore. But all executive and judicial branch employees still get their coverage through FEHB. And, as the U.S. Office of Personnel Management website proclaims: “Federal employees, retirees and their survivors enjoy the widest selection of health plans in the country.” That still sounds like a great place to start.)

GOVERNMENT EXECUTIVE
— Conservative veterans advocacy group is creating a new ad campaign to pressure Congress to enact legislation that would make firing bad VA employees easier – Eric Katz (DIERSEN: Of course, my critics have always hinted/implied/argued/shouted that I was a BAD federal employee, much BADDER than the BADDIST VA employee. They stress a) that my Democrat GAO superiors forced me to retire in 1997 when I was 49 years old, did not promote me beyond GS-13, 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 an $18,847 pay cut in today’s dollars to transfer from IRS to GAO in 1980; b) that my Democrat IRS superiors did not promote me beyond GS-12, disallowed my education deductions, and disallowed my partial day per diem claims; and c) that my Democrat Post Office superiors forced me resign in 1969 and disallowed my sick leave requests.)
http://www.govexec.com/pay-benefits/2017/03/group-launches-ad-campaign-ease-firing-federal-employees/135936/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Roe and Rubio’s bill would give the VA secretary expedited removal authority, meaning any employee fired by the secretary would be out of a job and off the department’s rolls that day. Any employee facing removal, suspension of at least 14 days or a demotion would receive advance notice of 10 days, and the secretary would have five days in which to rebut any response the employee comes up with in that time. Those employees would maintain appeal rights to the Merit Systems Protection Board and U.S. Court of Federal Claims. The bill would allow VA to reduce employees’ pensions if they are convicted of a felony that affected their job and to recoup bonuses and relocation expenses in some circumstances. Employees facing those penalties would also be entitled to an appeal. The measure would create “new reforms that will hold bad employees accountable and cut undeserved bonuses,” the ad declares. “Reforms that get bad VA employees out — for good.” “The VA Accountability First Act of 2017 would make it easier to fire employees who engage in misconduct and give the new VA secretary the tools he needs to improve the troubled department,” said CVA Director of Policy Dan Caldwell. Veterans deserve the highest standard of care possible, and right now, our government is failing them.”)

Because I have always been a Republican, were it not for federal civil service protections, a) the Post Office would NOT have hired me in 1966 or let me work there for almost 3 years, b) IRS would NOT have hired me in 1971 or let me work there for almost 9 years, c) IRS would NOT have promoted me in 1972, 1973, or 1974, d) GAO would NOT have hired me in 1980 or let me work there for almost 18 years, and d) GAO would NOT have promoted me in 1986.)
https://federalsoup.com/articles/2017/02/16/a-list-of-proposed-legislation-affecting-the-federal-government-workforce.aspx
(FROM THE ARTICLE: H.R. 6278 — Promote Accountability and Government Efficiency Act (or “PAGE” Act) Summary: Proposed by Rep. Todd Rokita (R-IN), the PAGE Act would change the employment of all future hires by the federal government to “at-will” status, meaning they may be suspended or fired without notice or appeal “for good cause, bad cause [or] no cause at all.” It prohibits all but the most highly-rated federal employees from receiving a pay raise, limits the avenues of appeal and specifies that a grievance filed by a union which results in a higher rating will not result in a pay raise. The bill also prevents federal employees from using official time to conduct any business related to union activities. Status: Referred to the House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform)

ILLINOIS FAMILY INSTITUTE
— Is White Privilege merely “Fake News?” – Oliver Perry (DIERSEN: My critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes have always hinted/implied/argued/shouted that I have always benefited immensely from White Privilege. They hint/imply/argue/shout that were it not for White Privilege, I never would have gotten the jobs that I did doing yard work, delivering newspapers, washing dishes, cleaning golf shoes, chipping slag, pumping gasoline, delivering mail, working on an automobile assembly line, working as a security guard, selling tires, automotive services, and major appliances, collecting delinquent federal taxes, and auditing federal agencies. But wait, they demonize, denigrate, and condemn all the aforesaid jobs as being so “bad” a) that they themselves would never take those jobs and b) that no minority, no female, no younger person, and no veteran should ever have to take those jobs.)
https://illinoisfamily.org/education/white-privilege-merely-fake-news/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The White Privilege concept claims that white people have certain invisible advantages. These advantages might merely be the result of acquiring income, education, or a residence in “nice” neighborhood. A Department of Education study states that “Black students are suspended and expelled at a rate three times greater than white students.” But was the study covering disparities in just one school? Or were some data gathered from schools in peaceful communities and other data from schools serving as substitute gang battlegrounds? Again, all of the details matter. An important part of the White Privilege concept is that you can’t lose it, avoid it, or fix it. You’re guilty of racism just by living. This is important for activists, for guilty people are easily manipulated, and you’ll keep doing whatever the accusers ask for. Finally, the White Privilege concept creates its own definition of racism. The common definition of racism judges a person on their thoughts, words and deeds. The White Privilege version says that you’re guilty because the accuser doesn’t like how society is currently structured. These advocates are moving the goalposts to encourage a political and social reengineering of America. So what do we know about White Privilege? It was invented to push people into accepting a socialist or Marxist society. You are accused of being racist, but not for anything you did. There is no way for you to fix this so-called racism. Your only hope is to join your accusers and reshape society to their plans. That sounds like “fake news” to me. It is guilt inducing without cause. Throw it out.)

— What Trump’s latest H-1B move means for workers and business – Jackie Wattles and Parija Kavilanz (DIERSEN: Are/were you employed? How strongly did/does your employer prefer employees who were citizens of foreign countries over citizens of America?)
http://money.cnn.com/2017/03/04/news/economy/h1b-visa-expedited-suspended-reaction/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: H-1B visas allow employers to bring in skilled foreign workers; about 85,000 will be given out this year. The visas are in high demand and given out by lottery. It can take six months or longer for an application to be reviewed. But the government announced Friday that, as of April 3, it will suspend the “premium processing” option, which ensures an application will be reviewed within 15 days. It costs $1,225. Trump has accused companies of abusing the H-1B program as a way to hire foreign workers who take jobs away from Americans, at lower salaries. The Trump administration says it’s doing away with quick-turn processing so it can sort through a large backlog of applications and try to “reduce overall H-1B processing times.”)

Overwhelmingly, anti-Trumps are also anti-Protestant, anti-conservative, anti-Republican, anti-American, anti-White, anti-male, anti-older people, anti-rich people, anti-gun owners, anti-German Americans, anti-draft avoiders, and/or anti-those whose ancestors have been in America longer than their ancestors. I was baptized, raised, and confirmed as a Missouri Synod Lutheran and I am conservative, Republican, American, White, male, older (68), non-poor, a gun owner, 100% German American, a draft avoider, and my ancestors have been in America since 1844.

BRADENTON HERALD
— Progressives wants to silence foes – PATRICK NEYLAN, BRADENTON
http://www.bradenton.com/opinion/letters-to-the-editor/article136275133.html
(FROM THJE LETTER: After four years of national malaise, conservatives were devastated by the presidential election results of 2012 even though they recaptured the House and Senate. While this was a definite setback for Democrats, the incumbent president defiantly declared he had a phone and a pen to enact his vision for America. The progressive reaction to the presidential election of 2016 is something to behold. Unlike conservatives, they destroy property, hold hate rallies, and spread a blizzard of lies, vulgar invective and fake news. The left wants to silence or destroy anyone who doesn’t fit in. They use terms such as the subject is settled, the discussion is over or the subject is not politically correct. This helps their lemmings avoid the headache of independent thought or objective inquiry. The national debt is never mentioned because it might cause the naïve to realize that America cannot afford the benefits that we currently enjoy. World-citizen progressives lobby for open borders and amnesty; this will provide excellent competition for the race to the bottom in jobs, wages and benefits, etc. Progressives’ idea of multiculturalism supports anti-western cultures and laws which document (in writing) a terrible human rights and antidemocratic record. They call it diversity. Qualified conservative professionals have about a one in 14 chance of gaining employment in the news media or academia. Does that sound democratic to you? Before this bias destroys America, laws like Equal Employment Opportunity must be passed. Perhaps readers will notice that world-citizen progressives avoid addressing the economy, existing unenforced laws, patriotism, borders, security, debt control and time-honored ethics, etc. What do they really have in mind, not even their lemmings know?)

NEW YORK TIMES
— Working Longer May Benefit Your Health – CHRISTOPHER FARRELL (DIERSEN: For my Democrat superiors, supervisors, coworkers, and subordinates in the federal government, destroying their superiors, supervisors, coworkers, and subordinates who were Republican, White, male, older, and/or non-veteran was always their top priority. In September of 1997, they made it very clear that if I did not take their early retirement “offer” by the end of the month, they would viciously kill me figuratively if not literally. All my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes paint themselves as being physiological terrorists. Should I write a book about them?)
https://www.nytimes.com/2017/03/03/business/retirement/working-longer-may-benefit-your-health.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Are there health benefits to staying in the work force longer? The scientific research is inconclusive, though it tends to tilt toward “yes.” This is particularly pronounced among people who find work fulfilling in the first place, who tend to be office workers, teachers and others whose workplace is not, say, a factory or a construction site. More so than people in most previous generations, baby boomers are continuing to work past their early 60s, often well beyond. Sometimes, this means delaying retirement from a longtime job, but it can instead involve some kind of bridge job, part-time employment or self-employment. It turns out that, these days, older Americans who retire — in the sense of completely withdrawing from the paid labor force — are increasingly in the minority. “What is the benefit of work? Activation of the brain and activation of social networks may be critical,” Nicole Maestas, an associate professor of health care policy at Harvard Medical School, said in an interview.)

The longer that you stay in America illegally, the louder that you shout that you are more prone to commit crime. Overwhelmingly, illegals have financial problems. The more financial problems that you have, the more likely that you will commit crime. Illegals know that if they are about to be caught for committing a crime, they can always return to their motherland.

— Staying home from New Trier – Shia Kapos
http://chicago.suntimes.com/news/kapos-making-political-oratory-great-again/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: New Trier High School’s seminar day examining civil rights has gone off without a hitch. No numbers yet on attendance, but the auditorium seating was nearly filled. At least one family, however, chose not to send their student to school. Robert Blackwell Jr., a Chicago entrepreneur and friend and supporter of President Barack Obama, says his daughter stayed home. While the school took some heat from conservative parents who thought the curriculum leaned too far left, Blackwell worried the content just wasn’t appropriate. He lives on the South Side and his daughter lives on the North Shore with her mom. Blackwell said negative images were being reinforced, and he pointed to a session called “Blackenomics 101,” based on a rap song that uses the N-word. “This session tells white teenagers that blacks need to express themselves through vulgarity and violence,” he said. Blackwell is chairman of EKI-Digital, which helps companies monetize technology investments, and he’a chairman of Killerspin table-tennis company. Keynote speakers were Colson Whitehead, who wrote “The Underground Railroad,” and Andrew Aydin, who with U.S. Rep. John Lewis, co-authored “March.”)

JOURNAL COURIER
— Disappearing company towns search for identity – AP
http://myjournalcourier.com/news/106230/disappearing-company-towns-search-for-identity
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Peoria Mayor Jim Ardis planned to open this year’s State of the City speech by thanking Caterpillar Inc. for its longtime commitment to the central Illinois town, declaring “We wouldn’t be Peoria without Caterpillar.” It’s been that way for decades in Peoria and in other company towns across the United States. A major employer provided generations of locals with jobs and gave the cities a central identity, while executives helped keep cultural institutions, Rotary clubs and higher-end housing markets healthy. Now many of those midsize communities are looking for a new identity as more companies trade their longtime hometowns for major cities with easier access to global markets and to the lifestyle talented young workers want, with public transit, nightlife and trendy restaurants. Caterpillar’s recent decision to move 300 top headquarters jobs to the Chicago area made Peoria the latest city with a vacuum to fill. In 2014, Decatur lost Archer Daniels Midland’s headquarters to Chicago after 40 years in the town. ConAgra Foods moved 1,000 jobs last year from Omaha to Chicago.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: In order to work cooperatively with several state-level Republican organizations and alongside the Illinois Congressional Committee, a Campaign Support Committee was recently established with three leaders including Montgomery Trustee Stan Bonds. Representing a portion of Will County, Bonds was recently appointed to the position by Illinois Republican Chairman Tim Schneider. The committee is formulated to work in tandem with the House Republican Organization, Senate Republican Organization, the State Republican Central Committee and the Illinois Congressional Committee by synchronizing campaign strategies and resources. Additionally, the Illinois GOP recently organized an endeavor to take a survey of statewide Republican leaders, precinct committeemen and conservative grassroots leaders. Questions centered on how the Republican Party can make improvements in the way it facilitates the GOP’s mission throughout Illinois, and the answers have been collated into a PowerPoint presentation accessible online. Constituents can view the survey results online. Will County also recently announced that its election department has an extended need for Republican election judges in the townships of Custer, Wesley, Reed, Florence and Wilmington. Election judges are compensated for their time, as well as for training.)

http://northcooknews.com/stories/511083558-new-trier-h-s-paid-90k-for-group-to-instruct-teachers-on-understanding-whiteness
(FROM THE ARTICLE: New Trier High School District 203 paid $88,614 to a consultancy to teach its staff why “whiteness” causes black and Hispanic students to score lower on standardized tests. North Cook News reviewed district check registers from Jan. 2011 to Jun. 2016. The Pacific Educational Group (PEG) received taxpayer dollars as part of District 203’s “professional development” budget, conducting “diversity training” and holding “seminars” and “summits” with dozens of New Trier’s teachers. One of them, New Trier teacher Pat Savage-Williams, a lead organizer of the school’s mandatory White Guilt” Day, scheduled for Feb. 28, presented at a recent event in Austin, Texas. Including reimbursed travel expenses, attendance at these events has cost New Trier taxpayers many tens of thousands of dollars more. Savage-Williams is president of the Evanston Township High School Board and has actively promoted PEG in that district as well. PEG specializes in “white privilege” training for public school teachers and administrators. Its founder, Glenn Singleton, preaches that white teachers stop black and Hispanic students from achieving because they fail to understand their cultures.)

My Democrat IRS superiors would stress that they did not promote me beyond GS-12, disallowed my education deductions, and disallowed my partial day per diem claims. My Democrat Post Office superiors would stress that they forced me resign in 1969 and disallowed my sick leave requests. My aforesaid Democrat superiors would stress that the aforesaid adverse actions that they took against me directly benefited their employees who were poor, and especially their poor employees who were Democrat, minority, female, younger, and/or veteran.)

Starting in 1989, to punish me for becoming in 1988 an active member of a class action lawsuit that charged GAO with reverse discrimination, age discrimination, and retaliation, my Democrat GAO superiors used the subjectivity in their pay-for-performance (PFP) system to always rank me in the lower half of my coworkers for PFP purposes. They were furious that I earned job-related professional certifications in 1990, 1994, 1996, and 1997 and that I earned a job-related master’s degree in 1997. During that time, my Democrat coworkers focused on helping my GAO superiors get rid of their employees who were Republican, White, male, older, and/or non-veteran.)

BELLEVILLE NEWS DEMOCRAT
— DIERSEN HEADLINE: BND wants to tax retirement income. (DIERSEN: Ever-increasingly, as inflation is far higher than COLAs, the purchasing power of my Civil Service Retirement System pension and Social Security is eroded.)
http://www.bnd.com/opinion/editorials/article133440444.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: And he said this: “we cannot tax people’s retirement incomes.” We say this: “Why not?” The feds tax retirement income. Illinois is one of only three states that do not. Instead of some lukewarm reforms and taxing everybody in the neighborhood of 5 percent, what about just closing the loophole that lets retirees escape paying state income taxes? That would put another $2 billion in state coffers and use retirement income to generate a partial fix for our $130 billion state pension deficit. Yes, we can hear the AARP screaming now about balancing the state budget on the backs of those with fixed incomes. True dat. But we could build in some protections for lower retirement incomes, say taxable after $35,000. Illinois has 350,000 people drawing pensions, and of that more than 14,000 are drawing public pensions of greater than $100,000 per year. How fair is it to ask the average Illinois family to pay an additional $745 in state income taxes when so many are paying zip? Letting retirement income escape state taxes is truly a loophole that lawmakers in 1983 giddily and popularly passed, sort of like the free bus rides for seniors regardless of income. Pain is coming in Illinois. Taxing retirees and selling the Thompson Center in Chicago are tiny splinters to be removed before amputations are necessary.)
