— Who will Trump appoint to be the next U.S. Comptroller General, that is, who will Trump appoint to be the next head of GAO? The U.S. Comptroller General’s term of office is set statutorily at 15 years and they are not eligible for reappointment. I worked for GAO for almost 18 years 1980-1997, the last 11 years of which at the GS-13 Step 1-10 Levels, currently $115,439-$150,075/year. – Dave Diersen

(FROM GAO’S WEBSITE at https://www.gao.gov/about/comptroller-general : How the Comptroller General is Selected The Congress established the current procedure for nominating a Comptroller General when it passed the GAO Act of 1980. Under the act, the Comptroller General is appointed by the President with the advice and consent of the Senate. When a vacancy occurs in the office of the Comptroller General, the Congress establishes a commission to recommend individuals to the President. The commission consists of the following: The Speaker of the House of Representatives, The President Pro Tempore of the Senate,
The majority and minority leaders of the House of Representatives and the Senate, The Chairman and Ranking Member of the Senate Committee on Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs, and The Chairman and Ranking Member of the House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform. The commission must recommend at least three individuals to the President, and the President may request that the commission recommend additional individuals. The President then selects an individual from those recommended to nominate as the new Comptroller General. The President’s nomination must be confirmed by the Senate. Comptrollers general are appointed for one nonrenewable 15-year term. The commission process has thus been followed three times now, leading to the President’s nomination, and the Senate’s confirmation, of the sixth Comptroller General, Charles A. Bowsher in 1981; the seventh Comptroller General, David M. Walker, in 1998; and the eighth Comptroller General, Gene Dodaro, in 2010.)

(FROM GAO’S WEBSITE AT https://www.gao.gov/about :GAO, often called the “congressional watchdog,” is an independent, non-partisan agency that works for Congress. GAO examines how taxpayer dollars are spent and provides Congress and federal agencies with objective, non-partisan, fact-based information to help the government save money and work more efficiently. For example, we identified about $67.5 billion in financial benefits for the federal government in fiscal year 2024—a return of approximately $76 for every dollar invested. GAO’s average return on investment for the past 6 years is $123 to $1. We also identified 1,232 other benefits that led to program and operational improvements across the government.

NEW YORK TIMES
— Congress Approves Full Social Security Benefits for Public Sector Retirees. The popular measure gives full benefits to millions of people who currently receive them at a reduced level. Critics warn the $196 billion cost will speed up the program’s insolvency. (COMMENT: My Social Security is dramatically reduced because I get a Civil Service Retirement System pension. I paid into Social Security for 10 years while I washed dishes, cleaned golf shoes, chipped slag, pumped gasoline, delivered mail, worked on an automobile assembly line, and sold tires, automotive services, and major appliances.)
https://www.nytimes.com/2024/12/21/us/congress-social-security.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The bill eliminates two provisions set up decades ago to shore up Social Security’s solvency. Projections show the Social Security fund will run out of money in 2038 and, if no action is taken before then, beneficiaries would see a 27 percent cut in benefits. Passage of the measure speeds up that timeline by six months. Twenty-seven Republicans joined Democrats in support. The two provisions were designed to prevent what is known as “double dipping” on retirement benefits by certain public employees and their relatives. It primarily affects two groups. One is public employees who receive pensions that are exempt from Social Security payroll taxes, but who also worked at least 10 years in jobs that required them to pay into the system. Such workers appear in the Social Security system as though they earned far less over their lifetimes than they actually did, and since the program pays out a higher proportion of low earners’ incomes in benefits, they receive a larger retirement benefit than they otherwise would. Another is people who receive public pensions but also become eligible for Social Security survivor benefits upon the death of a spouse or family member. Under the current law, both groups face a reduction in their benefits. The legislation on its way to enactment would allow them to receive the full amount. “We have spent decades working to pass this legislation, and tonight is a victory for all the public servants who will finally get the Social Security they have earned,” said Senator Sherrod Brown, an Ohio Democrat who was a lead co-sponsor of the bill. The bill marked Mr. Brown’s final legislative achievement, after he lost a brutal and expensive re-election bid last month. “Tonight, Congress ensured that police officers, firefighters, teachers and public servants across Ohio will be able to retire with the Social Security they spent their lives paying into,” he said. Senator Susan Collins, Republican of Maine and a lead sponsor of the measure, framed the issue as a “long overdue” matter of fairness affecting teachers, firefighters and police officers as well as some federal employees who were hired before 1984, when the federal pension system was brought under the Social Security system. In a floor speech Wednesday, Ms. Collins cited one of her constituents, a retired female schoolteacher who had to return to work at age 72 after her husband’s death to make financial ends meet. The woman’s husband was a Navy veteran who paid into Social Security for 40 years, but since she received a public pension from the school system, her surviving spousal benefits through Social Security were reduced by two-thirds. “This is an unfair, inequitable penalty,” Ms. Collins said. Public sector workers who are currently being penalized, she said, “have earned these benefits.” Public sector retirees and their allies on Capitol Hill in both parties have pressed for the measure for decades. It has sailed through Congress over the last several weeks, bypassing the usual committee process after proponents in the House collected 218 signatures on a so-called “discharge petition” to force it to the floor. Senate leaders also skipped committee consideration. But it faced vocal pushback in the Senate from fiscal conservatives. Several senators, mostly Republicans, warned that the bill could set off a chain reaction of unintended consequences by eliminating the two provisions. “We all agree the status quo is unfair, and it penalizes millions of hardworking Americans,” said Senator Joe Manchin of West Virginia, an independent who railed against the federal debt. “But we also have an obligation to honor our promises to ensure that Social Security is going to be there for the people who have paid into it and have earned it, and also those generations who come after.” Senator Thom Tillis, Republican of North Carolina, argued that a bill affecting the financial integrity of Social Security was too important to rush through at the end of the year without debate. The nearly $200-billion setback for the trust fund, he argued, would only make it more difficult to fix the longer-term issue of Social Security’s solvency. “There’s so much riding on us getting this right and having the courage to fix Social Security over the next few years,” he said. Other Republicans said the legislation righted a wrong that should have been addressed a long time ago. “I’m just glad we’re finally getting it done,” said Senator Markwayne Mullin, Republican of Oklahoma and a close ally of Mr. Trump’s. “It should have been resolved years ago.” Senator John Kennedy, Republican of Louisiana, said he had pushed the issue for 30 years in Congress and has repeatedly heard lawmakers promise, “We’ll fix it next year.” “They never have,” Mr. Kennedy said in an interview Wednesday. “People are entitled to receive every penny that they earn, and the way the law works now, they’re not.”)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: ‘Delete’ the IRS As Trump supporters have pushed for a broad overhaul of the Internal Revenue Service — or to eliminate the tax collector entirely — Musk polled his followers on X about the future of the agency, asking whether the IRS’s budget should be increased, maintained, decreased or “deleted.” Among more than 200,000 respondents, “deleted” won handily, though the poll didn’t exactly use rigorous methodology. Eliminating the IRS would be a radical move. IRS tax collections are the primary source of federal funding. In fiscal 2023, when spending approached $6.2 trillion, the IRS collected nearly $4.7 trillion in gross taxes. So without the IRS, Washington would need a different source of cash. Like a lot of ideas Musk muses about, this change would need approval by Congress. . .shrink the federal payroll Musk and Ramaswamy have repeatedly emphasized their desire to bring federal workers back to the office full-time. Musk has long been an opponent of remote work, telling employees of his companies to report to the office or resign well before pandemic telework habits ended at many firms. “Those who farm or build or drive can’t work from home and will be very sympathetic to this requirement,” Musk posted recently. Musk and Ramaswamy have also pledged “mass headcount reductions” in the federal workforce, saying they would work to “identify the minimum number of employees” needed to carry out essential functions. The goal isn’t to save money, Ramaswamy recently told the Aspen Security Forum. It’s to align the size of government with its functions — which Musk and Ramaswamy hope to greatly reduce.)

— Some see a silver lining to Chicago’s woes. Cheaper high-end condos downtown.(COMMENT: When I was 25 years old in 1974, so that I could walk to/from work at IRS in the Loop and graduate evening business and accounting classes and Loyola and DePaul, I bought a studio condo in the Outer Drive East building. I traded it in to the building’s owner for a one bedroom condo in 1976. I sold it for a $10,000 profit ($50,000 in today’s dollars) when I got married in 1978.)

I own two Corvettes (1972 and 2005) and a Mustang GT Premium (2023), Charger R/T Max (2013), and Thunderbird LX (1996). If you share my interest in cars, please let me know.

https://www.dailyherald.com/20241216/autos/luxury-car-condos-could-soon-roll-into-gilberts/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Developers are getting closer to getting a green light from village board members to build a “luxury” car condominium complex with retail and clubhouse space in Gilberts. BeSpoke Motor Union describes the condos as a “country club for car enthusiasts” that provide a space for people to store luxury cars. The plan calls for 156 “highly customizable” units in 10 two-story buildings. Car condos are a relatively new fad popping up in the area, with other developers working on similar facilities in Crystal Lake, Barrington and South Barrington. Trailblazers Iron Gate Motor Condos have been operating in Naperville since 2015. The Crystal Lake development called Redline Motor Condos, owned by Mayor Haig Haleblian, was approved by the city council in August. Developers aim to construct 25 two-story garage condo units at 7225 Teckler Blvd.)

Those jobs enabled me to get married in 1978.)

WASHINGTON TIMES
— Left wing sees a silver lining in accused assassin’s actions (COMMENT: I should write about my critics/opponents who despise/hate me the most because the federal government pays 72% of my and my wife’s health insurance premiums. In my defense, I worked for the Democrats who run the federal government for almost 30 years to get that benefit.)
https://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2024/dec/11/left-wing-sees-silver-lining-accused-assassin-luig/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Images of the man accused of killing the CEO of the nation’s largest health insurance company are splashed across T-shirts, coffee cups and other merchandise being hawked online and on the streets of New York City. Meanwhile, a group born out of Sen. Bernard Sanders’ 2016 presidential campaign is walking a tightrope of sympathy after the high-profile execution in Manhattan, suggesting, in this instance, that vigilante justice has a silver lining. . .“Half a million families go bankrupt each year from medical debt, and millions are harmed because their care is delayed or denied,” said the email, which included the subject headline “What Luigi Mangione means for Our Revolution.” The group has been a chief advocate for Medicare for All, taxing the wealthy and kneecapping corporations it accuses of putting “profits over people.”)

NEW YORK POST
— US immigration surge under Biden administration is biggest in US history — outpacing the days of Ellis Island (COMMENT: My critics/opponents have always decried the German immigration surge during the 1840s and 1850s. All my ancestors immigrated to America during the 1840s and 1850s. My critics/opponents have always a) stressed that I am 100% German national origin and b) have foisted negative German stereotypes on me. SEE: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stereotypes_of_Germans 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 during WWII, and that my father would have fought the Germans in WWII if he had not been 4-F.)
https://nypost.com/2024/12/11/us-news/us-immigration-surge-under-biden-administration-is-biggest-in-us-history/
(FROM WIKIPEDIA: For Germany perpetrating the Holocaust and starting World War II, Germans are often stereotyped as Nazis. This stereotype, while now rare, persists to this day. After the war, the German people were often viewed with contempt because they were blamed by other Europeans for Nazi crimes. Germans visiting abroad, particularly in the 1950s and 1960s, attracted insults from locals, and from foreigners who may have lost their families or friends in the atrocities. Today in Europe and worldwide (particularly in countries that fought against the Axis), Germans may be scorned by elderly people who were alive to experience the atrocities committed by Nazi Germans or by veterans who had fought against the Nazis during World War II. This resulted in a feeling of controversy for many Germans, causing numerous discussions and rows among scholars and politicians in Post-War West Germany (for example, the “Historikerstreit” [historians’ argument] in the 1980s) and after Reunification. Here, the discussion was mainly about the role that the unified Germany should play in the world and in Europe. Bernhard Schlink’s novel The Reader concerns how post-war Germans dealt with the issue.)

NEWS BUSTERS
— George Orwell had it right. We’ve somehow allowed a mob of degenerates guilt trip an entire society into a dystopia that rejects all morals in the name of morality. War is peace, ignorance is strength… Men are Women. “Affirming” the mentally ill is “life saving healthcare,” and with that, refusing to pay for someone’s “essential health care” is akin to murder. A cowardly thug murdering an innocent father in cold blood is therefore justified resistance. That’s who our leftist politicians, mainstream media and pop culture have celebrated for the past week. A wannabe vigilante jumping out of the dark to shoot a self-made CEO from an Iowa farm town was somehow presented as a win for the common man against the corporate empire. Except their Marxist hero, the identified suspect, turns out to be the product of privilege and money, cut from the same cloth as the Ivy League “revolutionaries” cheering him on.

ILLINOIS REVIEW
— IL GOP Support Proves Again to be the ‘Kiss of Death’ Even During a Trump-Dominated, Historic Election Cycle
https://www.illinoisreview.com/illinoisreview/2024/11/il-gop-support-proves-again-to-be-the-kiss-of-death-even-during-a-trump-dominated-historic-election-cycle.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: It wasn’t that long ago when IL GOP leaders were endorsing Fl. Gov. Ron DeSantis’ failed presidential bid, hosting ‘Never Trumpers’ at fundraisers in Naples, Florida; naming anti-MAGA officials as gala co-chairs and blaming President Donald Trump for Illinois election losses in 2020 and 2022. When Trump secured the Republican nomination for president last Spring, those same officials were silent. But that’s not all. When this publication revealed that a party leader in 2016 compared Donald Trump to Adolf Hitler – IL GOP officials were once again silent. This pattern, however, should come as no surprise. In 2022, IL GOP officials backed Richard Irvin’s failed campaign for Illinois governor. During the primary campaign, it was reported by WTTW’s Paris Schutz that in 2018, Irvin sent text messages calling Trump an “idiot” and a “bigoted racist.” Irvin also texted the friend, “I hate Trump too!” Irvin would lose the primary to the Trump-endorsed candidate by 43 points. During Republican Day at the Illinois State Fair last year, then Illinois Republican national committeeman Richard Porter gave an interview to the Chicago Tribune and said that Trump couldn’t win independent voters in swing states in 2024 and that he was running for president to avoid going to jail. “I think the most ardent Trumpers recognize that they might love him in their heart, but they know in their head he is not going to win independents in Georgia, Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, Michigan, New Hampshire, Arizona and Nevada. And that’s what you need to do to become president. And if you don’t become president of the United States, Trump goes to jail.” After this publication ran a story on his reported comments, Porter was in damage control, offering a long explanation to try and repair the damage – but it was too little, too late. And during the 2024 election, Trump would win every swing state proving Porter to be wrong once again. And former Illinois House Republican leader Jim Durkin – who is revered and respected by IL GOP leaders – likes to blame Trump for every Republican loss in Illinois. In November 2023, Durkin announced that he was not going to run for Cook County State’s Attorney and he blamed President Trump for his decision not to throw his hat in the race. “I know that if you’re going to run in a race, you have to run knowing that you have a good chance of winning, and I see no path winning with Trump at the top of the ticket [in 2024],” Durkin told CBS Chicago anchor Brad Edwards. In the Spring of 2022, IL GOP leaders traveled down to Naples, Florida to host a private reception featuring former US Attorney General Bill Baar, who served as AG under the George HW Bush and Donald Trump presidential administrations. Baar remains critical of Trump, and in November of 2022, he published a scathing opinion piece in the New York Post, writing, “Unless the rest of the party goes along with him, he will burn the whole house down by leading ‘his people’ out of the GOP. Trump’s willingness to destroy the party if he does not get his way is not based on principle, but on his own supreme narcissism. His egoism makes him unable to think of a political party as anything but an extension of himself – a cult of personality.” During this past election cycle where Trump dominated and made history winning both the popular and electoral votes by historic margins – and Republicans took control of the U.S. Senate and maintained control of the U.S. House – IL GOP leaders once again proved why their support is the ‘kiss of death.’ In District 10, Democrat U.S. Rep. Brad Schneider smoked Republican Jim Carris – who was the darling of the IL GOP, by 20 points – the largest margin of defeat of any congressional candidate. Illinois Republican leaders came out strong for Carris in ways not seen with other pro-MAGA candidates – as Carris had the support of the IL GOP establishment and leaders like IL GOP co-chair Kathy Salvi and national committeeman Dean White. Carris even appeared alongside Turning Point USA founder Charlie Kirk at a private event where the two shared the stage. Carris is pro-choice and refused to vocalize any support of Trump during his failed congressional campaign. “I’ve done a lot of research on this and studied and really given it a lot of thought and I am a pro-choice candidate,” Carris told a group in Winnetka, Illinois on June 6, 2024. During that same event, Carris refused to offer support for Trump when asked – who at the time was the presumptive Republican nominee for President, saying, “I am an independent person. I will decide when the time comes, but I’m concerned about my own campaign at this point…rather than be worried about the national election.” Carris was also endorsed by former U.S. Sen. Mark Kirk (IL), who is a Never Trumper – and called him “one of my political heroes…I can’t tell you how meaningful this is to me.” During the 2016 national GOP convention, many IL GOP leaders, including then Gov. Rauner, former Gov. Jim Edgar, US Sen. Mark Kirk and Rauner-appointed Comptroller Leslie Munger, skipped the convention because they did not support Trump. Kirk even ran an ad that said that Trump was not “fit to be Commander in Chief.” Across Illinois, state Democratic leaders maintained their super majority control as Republicans failed to flip any seats despite this being a historic Republican year with Trump at the top of the ticket. Democrats in the state House maintain the largest majority over Republicans in Illinois history. So what’s the key takeaway? IL GOP leaders and their cadre of failed political consultants have proven that like the Chicago Bears – they can find creative ways to lose and snatch defeat out of the jaws of victory. But what can you expect? It’s in their DNA.)

That ended my parents’ annual family reunions that had been held for many decades. That had a major impact on me.)
https://wordandway.org/2024/08/15/what-congress-reveals-about-lutheran-denominations/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Among the current 532 members of Congress (there are three open House seats at the moment), Republicans have a narrow majority with 51% of the seats. The partisan divide among Lutheran members in Congress depends on which denomination. Of the 20 Lutheran members identified, 12 belong to the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America that Walz is part of, while 7 are in the more conservative Lutheran Church—Missouri Synod. One other member, Republican Sen. Ron Johnson of Wisconsin, is part of the Wisconsin Evangelical Lutheran Synod, which is smaller and more conservative than the other two bodies. . .The members of the 118th Congress show which Lutheran denominations in public life have the most partisan leaning. Only the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America has a bipartisan delegation, while the Lutheran Church—Missouri Synod and the Wisconsin Evangelical Lutheran Synod currently only send Republicans to Congress.)

— In your precinct, how many voted for the D candidates to punish Trump?
— In your precinct, how many voted for the D candidates because they promised to use government to give more preference to those who shared their demographics?
— In your precinct, how many voted for the D candidates because they want more dependency on government and charity, LGBTQ, abortion, mass/illegal immigration, booze, gambling, pot, and other vices, further diminishment of Second Amendment rights, and/or Affirmative Action and DEI, that is, race and gender based preference giving, reparations, patronage, political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, age discrimination, religious discrimination, and national origin discrimination?
In your county, how many votes did the Republican candidates get versus their Democrat (D) opponent?
In DuPage County:
— 189,159 for Trump/Vance versus 245,192 for the Ds
— 40,507 for Booras versus 42,869 for the D

— 194,808 for Helland versus 238,809 for the D
— 204,516 for Costello versus 227,034 for the D
What adverse actions are those in your county, township, and municipality who voted for Harris going take against those who voted for Trump?
In Illinois, far too few Republican candidates, elected officials, and party leaders defended Trump let alone promoted him. What are the hate-filled Trump-hating Republican candidates, elected officials, and party leaders in your county going to do in response to Trump’s victory? Of course, they will blame Trump for the Republican defeats in your county.

— Elections should be run by separate standalone independent commissions. Half of those who lead those commissions and half of their employees should be real Republicans and half should be real Democrats. – Dave Diersen
http://www.gopillinois.com
— How do you react when voters who say that they are religious, conservative, and/or Republican spit hatred against Trump in your face? Political parties exist to help elect candidates who can and will defend and advance their platform. The Republican Party platform is conservative. Trump has pledged to defend and advance the 2024 Republican Party platform. Since 1999, the leaders of the Milton Township Republican Organization have stressed to me as a Republican Precinct Committeeman like me that we can support whichever candidates we want in Republican primary elections, but that we must support in general elections those candidates who win Republican primary elections. I have always supported those candidates who have won Republican primary elections. Trump won the Republican presidential primary in 2016, 2020, and again this year. What makes a voter a Republican? In Illinois, it is simply casting a Republican ballot. But ever-increasingly, I encounter voters, candidates, elected officials, party leaders, etc. who say that they are Republican, but who are filled with hatred not only against Trump, but against all those who do not share their hatred against Trump and they hint/imply/argue/shout that they are not only not going to vote for Trump, but that they are going to vote for Harris and for all the other Democrat candidates on the ballot to punish those like me who do not share their hatred against Trump. Needless-to-say, in Illinois, the aforesaid Trump-haters should cast a Democrat primary ballot next year, run as Democrats instead as Republicans, officially change their party affiliation to Democrat, resign as Republican party leaders, etc. instead of destroying those like me who do not share their hatred against Trump. – Dave Diersen

My critics/opponents stress that very few of those who took the CPA examination with me in 1979 and extremely few of those who took the Certified Internal Auditor examination with me in 1981 were minorities and/or females and that far fewer of them passed the examinations on their first attempt like I did. According to my critics/opponents, that was because I have always benefitted tremendously from discrimination against minorities and against females. In my defense, neither of my parents attended college. My father was only the first of my ancestors to earn a high school diploma. My mother never attended high school. I had to work my way through college.

LAKE FOREST PATCH
— $1.13 Million Awarded To Help Asylum-Seekers In Lake County. Created in response to Abbott’s border policy, the grants will go to housing, legal aid and health care for new arrivals. (COMMENT: Lake County today, your county tomorrow.)
https://patch.com/illinois/lakeforest/1-13-million-grants-headed-help-asylum-seekers-lake-county
(FROM THE ARTICLE: As the federal government tightens asylum rules amid growing national tension over immigration, the Lake County Board this week unanimously voted to accept an expanded state grant to assist asylum-seekers. Lake County is the only county in Illinois to receive funding through the Supporting Municipalities for Asylum Seeker Services, or SMASS, program, which is now in its second year. The SMASS program focuses on funding services such as shelter and transitional housing support, food assistance, wraparound services, legal help and health and wellness care. The Metropolitan Mayors Caucus administers the program, distributing state money on behalf of the Illinois Department of Human Services. This year, Lake County officials secured a grant worth more than $1.13 million, an increase of about 9 percent from what they received last year. Mano a Mano Family Resource Center, which serves immigrant families, will receive $924,298 of that money, while North Suburban Legal Aid will get $184,404 to provide legal assistance to asylum-seekers. Lake County will retain $21,536 to cover administrative costs for managing the program. The North Suburban Legal Aid Clinic was founded in 2015 by Nancy Rotering, who is also a member of executive board the Metropolitan Mayors Caucus. Gov. J.B. Pritzker said the SMASS program was created in response to the policy of the Texas state government to provide people who show up at the southern border with free transportation to sanctuary cities. “As we continue to call for further federal support, and as Illinois takes a stand against the callous ways Texas Gov. Abbott is using human beings as political pawns, these grants will lend support where it is needed throughout the state,” Pritzker said, announcing the funding earlier this year. More than 49,000 asylum-seekers have arrived in Chicago on buses and planes since September 2022, not including those arriving independently or via Greyhound, according to city officials. In addition to the Lake County grant, several other municipalities and organizations across Illinois were awarded funding for the 2025 fiscal year through the SMASS program. Champaign received nearly $710,000, Oak Park was awarded about $300,000 and Ford Heights secured almost $1.24 million. As for non-governmental groups, BEDS Plus Inc. received $878,000, Centro de Informacíon was granted nearly $1.7 million, The Immigration Project was awarded more than $702,000, Respond Now received more than $706,000, Rincon Family Services secured over $1.4 million, Western Illinois Dreamers was granted nearly $375,000, and World Relief Quad Cities received more than $367,000 to support services for asylum-seekers and individuals experiencing homelessness. This local initiative comes during an election season in which President Joe Biden and candidate and Vice President Kamala Harris are facing increasing pressure over their administration’s handling of immigration and border security. Last month, Biden administration officials announced tougher asylum restrictions, requiring that the daily number of border crossings remain below 1,500 for nearly a month before easing restrictions on asylum applications. That move, which builds on earlier policies introduced in June, has drawn sharp criticism from immigration advocates, who argue that it effectively denies asylum to those fleeing persecution.)
NIU
— NIU’s new freshman class excels academically, earns more than $6.3 million in merit scholarships (COMMENT: Did you get any merit scholarships? I did not. My critics/opponents have always used that against me. In my defense, neither of my parents attended college, my father was only the first of my ancestors to earn a high school diploma, my mother never attended high school, and I had to work my way through college. Instead of studying, I spent far too many hours a) washing dishes during my junior and senior years in high school and b) delivering mail while I was a UIC and then NIU student. I should write about my critics/opponents. I would focus on those whose parents had lots of money, who bought them cars, who paid for their college expenses, and/or who got them jobs.)

Johnson isn’t even two years into his term and every attempt to question him on his CPS coup and reckless $300M CTU loan ask, his migrant spending that has triggered a nearly $1B debt for next year and his flip flop on police hiring and ShotSpotter, results in the same answer – racism! Chicagoans say that he is worse than Lori Lightfoot – so that’s what I asked him yesterday and you know what his answer was? “I am not a black lesbian!”)

— GAO is less than a shell of what it once was.

While I worked for the Democrats who ran GAO 1980-1997, they used Republican-led budget cuts to get rid of the agency’s employees like me who were Republican, White, male, older, non-veteran, Protestant, German American, and/or had ancestors who had been in America for a long time. I should write a book about the aforesaid. – Dave Diersen

— Ever-increasingly, Democrats and RINOs hint/imply/argue/shout that the more of the following that you are, the more that you have benefitted from slavery and from discrimination against those who are not the following: conservative, Republican, White, male, older, non-veteran, non-poor, Protestant, German American, and/or have ancestors who have been in America for a long time. According to my critics/opponents, I owe all my successes in life to my benefitted from slavery and from discrimination against those who are not the aforesaid. They stress that my ancestors have been in America since 1844. In my defense and in my ancestors’ defense, I stress that we have always lived in northeast Illinois, that we never were in a position to discriminate against anyone, and that we never did discriminate against anyone. Neither of my parents attended college. My father was only the first of my ancestors to earn a high school diploma. My mother never attended high school. I had to work my way through college. Affirmative Action (AA) and DEI are reparations. My critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes have always used AA and DEI to make me pay reparations. When I was 49 years old in 1997, they forced me to retire early and they gave my job and my preferred corner office to my Black subordinate. Of course, Democrats and RINOs have no problem with that.

ILLINOIS GOP
— PRESS RELEASE: One Year Later, ILGOP Continues to Stand with Israel. One year ago today, Israel and the Jewish People suffered their worst attack since the Holocaust. On October 7, 2023, thousands of men, women and children were kidnapped, raped or murdered. ILGOP Chair Kathy Salvi released the following statement saying, “We must never forget the brutal atrocities committed by barbaric terrorists against Israel. One year later, hostages, some American citizens, continue to be held in Gaza. The United States must continue to do everything possible to support our greatest ally in the Middle East. Illinois Republicans continue to stand firmly behind Israel and will continue to fight anti-semitism in our state.” Anti Semitic incidents in Illinois have reached record highs including assaults, vandalism and harassment. Over the past year, Democrat leaders have criticized, threatened and turned their back on Israel. Bottom Line: Illinois Republicans stand in solidarity with Israel and the Jewish people.
