PUBLIUS FORUM
— Political Bias or Sloppiness? – Gary Krasner
http://www.publiusforum.com/2017/05/30/political-bias-sloppiness/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: On CNN’s State of the Union, with Dana Bash, on May 28, 2017, the topic of Sanctuary Cities was discussed with Sanctuary City Mayor Rahm Emanuel of Chicago. The definition of a “sanctuary city” is one which allows illegal aliens to reside within its jurisdiction, flouting state and federal immigration laws. And the operative word is “illegal.” But, the word “immigration” was spoken 8 times, without the prefix “illegal”. “Immigrant” was used spoken 4 times, with the prefix “illegal” zero times, but “undocumented” used only once.)

https://www.benzinga.com/markets/futures/17/05/9524780/civil-servants-push-back-at-trump-gop-characterizations-of-career-feds
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The GOP-controlled Congress and President Donald Trump have hammered away at what they characterize as slackers with too many benefits and too much time on their hands, and, frankly, civil servants are sick of it. “Contrary to what you may have heard in a recent congressional hearing, my members are barely holding on to a middle-class standard of living,” Pam Sturm, president of the National Treasury Employees Union, which represents 822 IRS workers in St. Louis, said in a statement. “They struggle to pay for housing, utilities, rising health-care costs, tuition and care for children or elderly parents,” Sturm said. She said 65 percent of her members are Grade 5 to Grade 8, which means their starting salary is $33,000. The highest salary for Grade 8 employees is $58,962.)

http://www.laconiadailysun.com/opinion/letters/102905-russ-wiles-3-17-360
(FROM THE LETTER: Thanks to Matt Vespa of townhall.com for pointing out examples of the lunacy of political correctness in academia today. Of course we know that this insanity is due in part to teachers imbuing a belief in young students that America is just not a very nice country. Of course, this too is yet another example of the progressive-left convincing folks that expecting foreigners who we welcome into this country to assimilate is just plain racist, mean and nasty. Democrats and the progressive-left in this country apparently are not able to comprehend the irony of their ideology. Perhaps that is why they are not paralyzed by what should for all intents and purposes be debilitating “cognitive dissonance.” Please look it up and then reflect on their actions, the irony of which should keep them up at night. It apparently does not because, after all, they have good intentions and so the often damaging results of their well intended actions and deeds are irrelevant to them. Crazy right?)

http://www.theblaze.com/podcasts/matt-walsh-lets-start-calling-them-biology-deniers/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Earlier in the week National Geographic unveiled its January cover story. They are profiling a confused and abused young boy who thinks he’s a girl. Of course, he isn’t presented as someone who is confused and abused. Rather he’s presented as a boy who is actually a girl, which is like presenting a triangle that’s actually a circle. There was a time when National Geographic was considered a science magazine. But the publication, along with liberalism more generally, has abandoned science. Indeed, anyone who suggests that a boy can be a girl is not only guilty of perpetuating abuse, but also guilty of rejecting the entire field of science known as biology. That is why I propose a new name for those who believe in the “transgender” superstition. They are biology deniers. They are people who fundamentally deny the existence of biological sex. They may say that they accept biological sex and proceed to draw a false and fabricated distinction between that and “gender,” but the fact remains that if you will call a boy anything other than a boy, you have denied his biology. You are a biology denier. And that’s what you ought to be called.)

CHIEF LEADER
— Key Federal Worker Protections May Be in Jeopardy Under Trump Regime – BOB HENNELLY  (DIERSEN: My critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes a) promote patronage, b) reject the Pendleton Act, and c) reject merit hiring.  They side with Jim Thompson, Jim Edgar, and my Democrat GAO, IRS, and Post Office superiors, supervisors, coworkers, and subordinates.)
http://thechiefleader.com/news/open_articles/key-federal-worker-protections-may-be-in-jeopardy-under-trump/article_9d30c750-a5e1-11e6-aa10-cb626479a302.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Tradition at a Crossroads  For more than 130 years, Federal civil-service employees have enjoyed legal protection from partisan politics, but in recent years the partisan standoff in Washington has led to the lapsing of the authorizations for the agencies that enforce these laws. In the case of the U.S. Merit Systems Protection Board, which polices the entire civil service system, the failure to act on a nominee made by President Obama in 2015 will mean that just a few months into Mr. Trump’s term, it is likely that board will cease to have a quorum. As a consequence of the Senate’s failure to act, the incoming President will be able to appoint two of the three MSPB members. Currently the two million plus Federal workers who report to the 4,000 political appointees selected by the President enjoy civil service protections that were first put on the books in the 1880s in homage to President James A. Garfield, who was assassinated by a disgruntled office-seeker who felt slighted that his political work for Mr. Garfield’s Republican Party had gone unrewarded with a patronage position. Mr. Garfield had been a fierce opponent of the spoils system, cracked down on corruption in the U.S. Post Office and said in his inaugural address that “the civil service can never be placed on a satisfactory basis until it is regulated by law.”  Required Merit Hiring  The Pendleton Act, passed in 1883, two years after Mr. Garfield’s death, required that Federal employees be hired on merit and selected based on the results of competitive exams they would be required to take. This was a radical departure from the patronage system that mushroomed in the first 100 years of the nation. “When Garfield was assassinated, it was sort of a galvanizing event and it made a lot of policymakers scrutinize the spoils system—and there had been dissatisfaction with it,” said James Read, the Director of Policy and Evaluation for the U.S. Merit Systems Protection Board. The MSPB is a bipartisan quasi – judicial agency that has 228 employees and an annual budget of close to $47 million. It hears, on average, several thousand cases a year brought by Federal employees who believe their treatment by superiors violated the statutes and regulations that govern the Federal workforce. With the recent budget battles that produced furloughs, a government shutdown, and budget cuts due to sequester, the number of cases swelled to 33,000 in 2013.)

http://abc7chicago.com/politics/newsviews-gov-bruce-rauner/1661268/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: It’s been nearly two years since Bruce Rauner was sworn in as governor of Illinois. In those two years, there has been a lot of gridlock between the Republican governor and the Democratic-controlled General Assembly. There is no state budget, no turnaround plan as the governor has called for and a temporary measure expires at the end of the year. As we approach the end of the year, a homeless shelter in Chicago’s Uptown neighborhood says it will close without a deal. There is talk that the state could miss out on infrastructure money under the incoming Trump administration and colleges and universities are looking at operating without state funding.)
