HERALD & REVIEW
— Government opposes Schock’s request to stay his case – Andy Kravetz (DIERSEN: What if the news media had reported on Diersen v. GAO like it reports on U.S. Government v. Schock? In Diersen v. GAO, while Maggie Hickey served as Peter Fitzgerald’s Chief of Staff, Fitzgerald appointed both the district court judge, Amy J. St. Eve, and the attorney who represented GAO, Patrick Fitzgerald. All of the aforesaid made it very clear that they favored patronage, political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, age discrimination, and retaliation. Eve granted Patrick Fitzgerald’s motion to deny me my 7th Amendment rights, that is, to deny me a jury trial. Of course, my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes used that to hint/imply/argue/shout that Peter Fitzgerald, Hickey, Eve, and Patrick Fitzgerald all viewed me as being someone who was lazy, stupid, bad, and even worse things.)

In today’s dollars, my GAO salary was $125,325/year, but my Civil Service Retirement System (CSRS) pension is $73,461/year less than that, or only $51,864/year. My CSRS pension is only 41% of my GAO salary in today’s dollars.)

They stress that I was a union member a) for almost 3 years while I worked for the Post Office 1966-1969 and b) for almost 9 years while I worked for IRS 1971-1980.

GOPUSA ILLINOIS
— OUTSTANDINGLY, 19 REPUBLICANS HELPED SPONSOR WHEATON’S INDEPENDENCE DAY FIREWORKS AND PARADE! Illinois Republican Party leader and Bolingbrook Mayor Roger Claar contributed $500, Judge Jeff MacKay contributed $250, and DuPage County Forest Preserve Commissioner Tim Whelan contributed $150. Bob Berlin, Dan Cronin, Tim Elliott, Amy Grant, Gwen Henry, Paul Hinds, Marty Keller, Deanne Mazzochi, Dave Molitor, John Monino, Chris Nybo, Peter Roskam, Darlene Ruscitti, Phil Suess, Kevin Wiley, and Karen Wilson each contributed $100.

As the $2,500 Star sponsor, DuPage County Republicans got credit for sponsoring the Tunes of Glory bagpipers and the Wheaton North and South High School band entries in the parade. DuPage Republicans again had a booth at the fireworks the evening before the parade. Those who stopped by included Governor Rauner and the First Lady, Erika Harold, Amy Grant, and Marty Keller. Earlier, I had the honor of hand delivering flyers to residences on the parade route, including Main Street and two blocks east and west of Main Street south of Harrison Street, and businesses that listed the Republican entries in the parade, the Republican sponsors, and the amount that they contributed. The flyers were printed courtesy of Alpha Graphics.

Republican elected officials and candidates in the parade included Peter Roskam, Evelyn Sanguinetti, Erika Harold, Mike Connelly, Peter Breen, Jeanne Ives, Amy Grant, Paul Hinds, James Mendrick, Grant Eckhoff, Tim Elliott, Chris Zaruba, Tim Whelan, Jeff McKay, Karen Wilson, Gary Muehlfelt, Sal Falbo, John Monino, Nick Nathwani, as well as Marty Keller and the Milton Township Republican Central Committee. – Dave Diersen

http://abc7chicago.com/society/july-fourth-in-chicago-fireworks-parades-food-and-fun/3705863/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Like marching bands and beauty queens, a Fourth of July parade is never without politics. Governor Bruce Rauner was in Arlington Heights shaking hands with what appeared to be a Rauner-receptive crowd. “We are the greatest nation on earth because of our heroes, our veterans we celebrate our history tradition of freedom and opportunity,” said Gov. Bruce Rauner. Celebrating freedom and opportunity with a democratic friendly crowd was Rauner’s challenger JB Pritzker. The annual Hyde Park parade was one of four stops on his schedule Wednesday.)

— DIERSEN HEADLINE: Pot pushers push pot. If/when pot is legalized in Illinois, and if municipalities will be able to bar the sale of pot in their jurisdictions, I will lead the effort to bar the sale of pot in Wheaton.
http://www.chicagotribune.com/news/sns-bc-us–canada-marijuana-legalization-things-to-know-20180621-story.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: It’s up to the provinces and territories to determine how to handle distribution, and they’re taking a variety of approaches. Ontario plans to open up to 150 stores run by its Liquor Control Board — a model of public ownership that is unusual in the U.S. The tiny Washington state town of North Bonneville has one city-owned pot shop. British Columbia is planning for a mix of public and privately owned stores, while Newfoundland and Saskatchewan will have only private pot shops. In some remote areas where stand-alone marijuana stores might not be economically feasible, including in the Northwest Territories, cannabis could be sold at existing liquor stores. Just like U.S. states with legal pot, the provinces also differ on home-growing, with many allowing up to four plants and others, including Quebec, barring it. And rather than a minimum age of 21, as U.S. states have set, Canada’s federal minimum age to use marijuana will be 18, with most provinces adding an additional year. The varying approaches make the provinces something of a laboratory for determining the best ways to legalize, said Matt Gray, founder and chief executive of Herb, a Toronto-based news and social media platform for the pot industry.)

— A Guiding Hand From College to Not Just a Job, but a Career – Paul Sullivan (DIERSEN: When you were in college, what industry did you want your career to be in? For me, it was the automotive industry. By the time I graduated from NIU in 1970, I had bought three new cars – a 1966 Pontiac Tempest Sprint, 1968 Oldsmobile 442, and 1969 Dodge Charger SE. In 1970, I accepted a job offer from Firestone Stores. In 1971, I accepted a job offer from Oldsmobile. But Oldsmobile withdrew that job offer saying that it had just agreed to stop hiring Whites to settle an EEOC complaint. That directly resulted in my accepting a job offer from IRS.)
https://www.nytimes.com/2018/06/15/your-money/college-graduation-career-advice.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Ms. Golinkin promotes herself as a mix of ad hoc therapist, master networker, recruiter and job whisperer. She draws on her experience in publishing, where, she said, she hired more than 200 young adults. “I managed them and coached them and brought them on to some really great careers,” she said. “I helped them realize their full potential.” On the surface, college graduates have it good. The unemployment rate for adults 25 and older with a college degree dropped to 2.0 percent in May, compared with 3.9 percent for those in the same age group with a high school diploma and 5.4 percent for those who did not graduate from high school, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics. Overall unemployment was 3.8 percent in May, an 18-year low. But what those statistics do not show is how workers feel about the quality of their jobs and whether the jobs are leading to a career. They also do not dip into the pressure graduates can feel to find a job that is meaningful.)

My Democrat superiors, supervisors, coworkers, and subordinates in the federal government always hinted/implied/argued/shouted that the undergraduate and graduate courses and the CPA and CIA examination review courses that I took a) were not job-related, b) did not help me carry out my job duties, c) were taken by me to get a job in the private sector, and d) were a distraction.)

http://fortune.com/2018/05/31/gretchen-carlson-supreme-court-ruling-arbitration-metoo/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: It was with immense pride that I joined legislators from both parties in December to introduce the “Ending Forced Arbitration of Sexual Harassment Act,” which restores victims’ constitutional 7th Amendment right to a jury trial. Sponsored by Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand (D-N.Y.), Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.), Rep. Cheri Bustos (D-Ill.), and Rep. Elise Stefanik (R-N.Y.), the bill now has 17 cosponsors. With the Supreme Court’s decision, my mission is to get it through Congress and down to the president’s desk for signature this year.)

— Carefully Consider the Cost of Going Back to School as an Adult, Suggests Ameritech Financial (DIERSEN: Did you earn a master’s degree, professional certification, and/or professional license? I should write a book about the costs and benefits of my a) earning an MBA from Loyola in 1976, b) passing the CPA examination on my first attempt in 1979, c) earning a master’s degree in accounting from DePaul in 1980, d) passing the Certified Internal Auditor (CIA) examination on my first attempt in 1981, e) becoming a licensed CPA in 1981, and f) earning a master’s degree in finance from IIT in 1997. My Democrat superiors, supervisors, coworkers, and subordinates in the federal government always hinted/implied/argued/shouted that the undergraduate and graduate courses and the CPA and CIA examination review courses that I took a) were not job-related, b) did not help me carry out my job duties, c) were taken by me to get a job in the private sector, and d) were a distraction.)
https://www.prnewswire.com/news-releases/carefully-consider-the-cost-of-going-back-to-school-as-an-adult-suggests-ameritech-financial-300666889.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: “It is a very personal decision to see if the advantages of learning new skills offset the cost of returning to education.” And the cost can be high. Graduate courses at public universities can be up to $700 per credit, while a single course at a private college can cost more than $3,300. That means that it can cost anywhere from $20,000 to more than $100,000 to earn an advanced degree. A certificate program can cost from $3,000 if done online up to $12,000 if taken on campus, and this does not include textbooks.)

They would say that the only reason why my Democrat GAO superiors promoted me to GS-13 in 1986 and gave step increases in subsequent years was to get my “high 3” salary, and therefore my pension, high enough that I would cave in and take a) their $25,000 buyout “offer” in 1993 when I was 45 years old, and if not that, b) their early retirement “offer” in 1997 when I was 49 years old.)

ROBERT FEDER
— Sun-Times CEO Eisendrath fires back at critics (DIERSEN: He who pays the piper calls the tunes. No one calls my tunes. My critics/opponents cannot take away my $51,864/year Civil Service Retirement System pension, my $18,000/year federal health/dental/vision insurance subsidy, or my $2,064 Social Security.)
http://www.robertfeder.com/2018/06/13/robservations-sun-times-ceo-eisendrath-fires-back-critics/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Sun-Times CEO Edwin Eisendrath is responding to critics who’ve questioned whether the paper can cover politics and City Hall fairly under its current ownership. Foremost among them is Chicago Tribune columnist John Kass, who challenged the connection between Sun-Times chairman Jorge Ramirez and his boss, investment executive Michael Sacks, whom Kass described as Mayor Rahm Emanuel’s “money guy, closest confidant and top fundraiser.” This week Eisendrath fired back: “The truth is the journalists do their job, and they’re not being bossed around by anyone on our board. That line is held, and it’s been clear. I don’t see any evidence that anybody is walking around me and talking to the reporters and trying to push them to do anything,” he told me. “The same way I’m able to say — in spite of clear evidence that the Tribune has a corporate point of view and a political point of view — I’m able to give credit to the journalists for the work they do. And I would expect Kass to do the same thing. . . . It’s fair to go after corporate citizenship. You bet it is. But that’s a different case. That’s not what he did. He said the reporters are going to get their marching orders from City Hall. Shame on him. He knows better.”)
