https://pjmedia.com/columns/mark-ellis/2021/04/22/the-masque-of-the-blue-death-n1441985
(FROM THE ARTICLE: A Black Lives Matter co-founder buys up real estate in white neighborhoods, while the violent insurrectionists fomenting civil chaos under the BLM banner wreak havoc in communities where people of color actually live. The stench of hypocrisy rises like swamp gas, but never quite high enough to eclipse the smell of socio-political moribundity. Woke corporatists turn household names like Coca Cola into catchphrases denoting white guilt. As replacement theory gains traction, Marxist extremists sow racial dissension and gear up for what they believe is a long overdue reckoning. The rest of the “racist” citizenry battens down the hatches.)

https://foxillinois.com/news/nation-world/as-california-recall-looks-likely-hard-work-begins-for-gop
(FROM THE ARTICLE: “If this is simply branded as a Republican effort the likelihood of success is very slim,” said Tim Rosales, a Republican consultant who was a senior adviser to the campaign of John Cox, a businessman who lost to Newsom in 2018 and is running again. His firm recently stopped working with Cox. Beyond Cox, the top Republicans in the race so far are former San Diego Mayor Kevin Faulconer and ex-U.S. Rep. Doug Ose, who last held office in 2005. Neither is close to a household name, though Faulconer has been barnstorming the state to raise his profile.)

My precinct has fewer middle-income voters, more lower-income voters, and more upper-income voters than many other precincts. My precinct has had far more teardowns than many other precincts.

— Is It Wrong to Wear Expensive Designer Clothes to a New Job? – Vanessa Friedman (DIERSEN: My Democrat superiors, supervisors, coworkers, and subordinates in the federal government were filled with envy. While I worked for the Post Office 1966-1969, they were furious that I bought a new Pontiac Tempest Sprint earlier in 1966, a new 1968 Oldsmobile 442 in 1967, and a new 1969 Dodge Charger SE in 1968. While I worked for IRS 1971-1980, they were furious that I bought a new 1972 Corvette in 1971, a new 1974 Dodge Dart in 1973, a new 1978 Oldsmobile Delta 88 Royale in 1978, and a new 1978 Chevrolet Chevette in 1978. They were furious that I bought a new town home in 1972, a studio condo in 1974, a one bedroom condo in 1976, and my wife and I bought a home in Wheaton in 1978. They were furious that I paid for tuition and books to take graduate business courses at Loyola, graduate accounting courses at DePaul, and Becker CPA Review courses. While I worked for GAO 1980-1997, they were furious that I paid for tuition and books to take graduate accounting courses at DePaul and Certified Internal Auditor review courses. They were furious that my wife and I had a new home built in Wheaton in 1984, and that I bought a 1962 Chevrolet Impala SS collector car in 1989 and a 1968 Dodge Charger R/T collector car in 1994. They were furious that I paid for tuition and books to take graduate finance courses at IIT.)

As President Biden calls for new gun laws in the wake of mass shootings, the federal ban passed in 1994 offers a reminder of how difficult it is to craft an effective prohibition. – Cameron McWhirter and Zusha Elinson (DIERSEN: Ever-increasingly, Democrats and RINOs hint/imply/argue/shout that they are going to get rid of Republicans once and for all. That encourages Republicans to buy assault weapons for their self-defense.)

— Meet the Republican challengers lining up to oppose Sen. Mike Lee – Frank Pignanelli & LaVarr Webb (DIERSEN: I should write a book about those who hint/imply/argue/shout that I am too conservative. I would focus on those who paint themselves as being religious, conservative, and/or Republican and a) who have lots of religious, government, political, and/or financial clout in Wheaton’s West District, Wheaton, Milton Township, DuPage County’s 4th District, DuPage County, and Illinois, b) who are leaders of Wheaton, Wheaton Chamber of Commerce, Milton Township, DuPage County, and Illinois, c) who are leaders of the Milton Township Republican Organization, DuPage County Republican Central Committee, and Illinois Republican Party, and d) who were defendants in lawsuits that I have filed.)
https://www.deseret.com/opinion/2021/3/27/22346783/republican-challengers-lining-up-to-oppose-utah-sen-mike-lee
(FROM THE ARTICLE: As before, some Republicans are troubled with Lee’s style and rhetoric. But claims that Lee is too conservative or over strident will not resonate with the GOP faithful. His efforts and speeches pushing back against a Democrat controlled federal government will be embraced. . .And Lee is likely saying, “Come on in. The more the merrier.” A large field of moderate candidates will split the centrist vote in a multi-candidate primary and allow Lee to waltz to victory with his strong conservative base. . .If the Biden administration continues its leftward lurch and pushes bigger government, more regulation and higher taxes, Utah voters may want to send a conservative to go to battle in Washington, not someone who wants to get along with everyone.)

But they viciously demonize, denigrate, and condemn federal employees as being grossly overpaid. I should write a book about my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes. I would focus on those who never applied for a federal job a) because they want higher pay and better benefits than federal employees get, b) because they view advancement opportunities for federal employees as being 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 the aforesaid.)
