SUBURBAN LIFE
— Communities look forward to celebrating Independence Day – Samantha Malone
(DIERSEN: If 2021 Independence Day parades have fewer entries, have fewer paid entries, have fewer Republican entries, and/or have fewer viewers, who will who blame who for that? Wheaton has $2,500 less for paid entries this year because Wheaton refused to let Republicans help sponsor its parade and fireworks.)

DAILY HERALD
— Municipalities should not take sides in Pride politics – Mark Bodett, Wheaton
(DIERSEN: From what I see, ever-increasingly, if you do not promote LGBTQ+, employers, organizations, governments, etc. get rid of you. I do not promote LGBTQ+.)
https://www.dailyherald.com/discuss/20210703/letter-municipalities-should-not-take-sides-in-pride-politics
(FROM THE LETTER: Third, why should the city of Palatine promote the LGBTQ+ agenda by celebrating Pride Month? To be clear, Pride Month is not about people. Pride Month is about politics and power. It is about demanding that everyone approve and support the LGBTQ+ movement, which again is a political movement. However, not everyone in Palatine agrees with the agenda of the LGTBQ+ movement. If we wish to live in free and diverse communities, we need to care about freedom of conscience and tolerance. People who are not aligned with the LGTBQ+ movement should not have their town taken over for political purposes one month every year. If individuals want to hang a rainbow flag on their house, that is their prerogative. If businesses want to put a rainbow in their window, that is their prerogative. But the village itself should be neutral and not make proclamations for one side or another. When the village government becomes involved, it puts pressure to participate on those who would rather not. The village in a free society should protect its citizens and business owners from coercive pressures, not encourage them.)

— FROM THE ARTICLE: “forest preserves were seen as a patronage dumping ground. ”
(DIERSEN: I should write a book about my critics/opponents who have promoted patronage the most. They include my Democrat GAO, IRS, and Post Office superiors. They include my Republican U.S. Senators, U.S. Representatives, and their staff members. Those who promote patronage destroy those like me who they cannot manipulate/dominate, who refuse to glorify and praise them, who refuse to pander to them, who refuse to serve as one of their operatives or dupes, who refuse to cover-up their wrong doing, and/or who refuse to give them money.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: “I did this to ensure that they have a better future,” Flores said. But his main reason for becoming a naturalized citizen, he said, was the ability to finally vote. “What if we get another president like Trump and he wants to kick us all out again?” Flores laughed. Donald Trump’s presidency was often criticized for anti-immigrant rhetoric and policies that slowed down the process, or made it more difficult for immigrants to become citizens, said Carlos Arango, a pro-immigrant advocate in the Chicago area. Since taking office, President Joe Biden has issued an executive order to make the naturalization process more accessible, including making $10 million in grants for citizenship preparation programs.)

My Democrat IRS superiors did not promote me beyond GS-12, disallowed my education deductions in 1978, got rid of my mentor in 1975, and disallowed my partial day per diem claims in 1974. My Democrat Post Office superiors forced me to resign in 1969 and disallowed my sick leave requests in 1969 and 1968.)

PATRIOT POST
— Biden’s Unconstitutional Workplace Indoctrination Scheme. The idea isn’t to foster debate. It’s used only to indoctrinate and compel acquiescence. – BETSY MCCAUGHEY
https://patriotpost.us/opinion/80979-bidens-unconstitutional-workplace-indoctrination-scheme-2021-06-30
(FROM THE ARTICLE: If you’re white and work for the federal government, get ready to be labelled a racist, regardless of how fair and open-minded you are. On Friday, President Joe Biden ordered all federal agencies to ramp up workplace training on “systemic and institutional racism” and “implicit and unconscious bias.” Those are buzzwords for critical race theory, which holds that all whites are biased against people of color, even if unconsciously. Under this theory, throughout American history and continuing now, whites oppress Blacks and need to acknowledge their guilt. Assume you work in an office with people of several races and, until now, you worked pretty smoothly as a team. Then you and your co-workers undergo mandated critical race theory training. Whites will be ridiculed as racists, and if they try to deny that, they’ll be told their denials are proof of their unconscious bias and “white fragility.” Black employees will understandably question if they can even trust their white co-workers and if they all have the same goals. Critical race theory is a disaster for workplace morale. Expect an avalanche of lawsuits challenging Biden’s efforts to saturate the federal workplace with this divisive doctrine. The Civil Rights Act of 1964 — still the law of the land, Mr. President — bars employers from allowing a toxic work environment. Federal regulation defines a toxic work environment as permitting “intimidation, ridicule or mockery, insults or put downs” based on race, religion, age or other distinctions. That’s exactly what goes on in these training sessions. No one should have to put up with being called a racist as a condition of their employment.)

TOWNHALL & CREATORS SYNDICATE
— Biden’s Unconstitutional Workplace Indoctrination Scheme – Betsy McCaughey
(DIERSEN: How many people do you know who have taken lots of diversity training? Democrats use diversity training to get rid of Republicans. The Democrats who run the federal government require all their employees to take lots of diversity training. I worked for the Democrats who ran the federal government for almost 30 years. I should write a book about all the diversity training that I took. That training hinted/implied/argued/shouted that Republicans are White supremacists, Nazis, KKK members, haters, racists, sexists, bigots, and even worse things who should gotten rid of once and for all. That helps explain why federal employees who are Democrat do not want to work for, work with, or supervise federal employees who are Republican. Virtually all federal employees are Democrats.)
https://townhall.com/columnists/betsymccaughey/2021/06/30/bidens-unconstitutional-workplace-indoctrination-scheme-n2591793
https://www.creators.com/read/betsy-mccaughey/06/21/bidens-unconstitutional-workplace-indoctrination-scheme
(FROM THE ARTICLE: If you’re white and work for the federal government, get ready to be labelled a racist, regardless of how fair and open-minded you are. On Friday, President Joe Biden ordered all federal agencies to ramp up workplace training on “systemic and institutional racism” and “implicit and unconscious bias.” Those are buzzwords for critical race theory, which holds that all whites are biased against people of color, even if unconsciously. Under this theory, throughout American history and continuing now, whites oppress Blacks and need to acknowledge their guilt. Assume you work in an office with people of several races and, until now, you worked pretty smoothly as a team. Then you and your co-workers undergo mandated critical race theory training. Whites will be ridiculed as racists, and if they try to deny that, they’ll be told their denials are proof of their unconscious bias and “white fragility.” Black employees will understandably question if they can even trust their white co-workers and if they all have the same goals. Critical race theory is a disaster for workplace morale. Expect an avalanche of lawsuits challenging Biden’s efforts to saturate the federal workplace with this divisive doctrine. The Civil Rights Act of 1964 — still the law of the land, Mr. President — bars employers from allowing a toxic work environment. Federal regulation defines a toxic work environment as permitting “intimidation, ridicule or mockery, insults or put downs” based on race, religion, age or other distinctions. That’s exactly what goes on in these training sessions. No one should have to put up with being called a racist as a condition of their employment.)

June 7 Evening Edition

GOPUSA ILLINOIS
— From what I see, it is ever-increasingly clear that DuPage County Democrats want to punish Trump and punish his supporters for the January 6 Capitol Riot by stopping DuPage County Republicans from sponsoring Wheaton’s 2021 Independence Day Parade and Fireworks. Needless-to-say, that is unacceptable.

I certainly hope that all of the following have entries in the parade: Republican candidates for U.S. Senate, U.S. Representative in the DuPage County area, Illinois statewide offices, Illinois Senate and Representative in the DuPage County area, DuPage countywide offices, DuPage County Board and Forest Preserve offices, and judicial candidates.

It is Wheaton’s Independence Day Parade and Fireworks, not the Wheaton Park District’s Parade and Fireworks. Wheaton has given $30,000 to the Park District with $10,000 earmarked for parade entries and $20,000 earmarked for fireworks.

The more money that the Park District has for parade entries, the more and better entries that it can schedule.

The following is what I will ask Wheaton’s Mayor and Wheaton’s City Council to do at its meeting Monday evening, June 7, 2021 at 7:00 PM:

Direct the Wheaton Park District to:

— Use the same policy for sponsorship of Wheaton’s 2021 Independence Day Parade and Fireworks that it used for sponsorship of its 2019 Independence Day Parade and Fireworks, that is, allow DuPage Republicans to again donate $2,500 to be the top sponsor and earmark that donation for the bagpipers and high school bands, unless, of course, if the bagpipers and/or high school bands object to such earmarking

— Contract with bagpipers, for example, the Tunes of Glory Pipes and Drums or Chicago Highlanders Pipes & Drums, to march in the parade

— Contract with the Wheaton North and Wheaton Warrenville South high schools for their bands to march in the parade

— Publish and keep updated a list on its website of all parade entries as they come in

— Publish a detailed financial report a) on the money that it took in for the 2019 and prior Wheaton Independence Day parades and fireworks and b) how it spent that money for parade entries, etc.

— Report to Wheaton how it has/will spent/spend the $10,000 that it has received from the City of Wheaton for the 2021 parade and fireworks

— Report to Wheaton on what it has done, is doing, and will do to make Wheaton’s 2021 Independence Day Parade as successful as it can be in terms of a) number and quality of parade entries, b) promotion of the parade, c) etc.

They did not believe that my application for a financial hardship draft deferment would be approved. Starting in 1966, when I was 18 years old, my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes have used my avoiding the draft against me big time. I should write a book about that.)

WASHINGTON POST
— Wheaton: For evangelical leader Jamie Aten, advocating for vaccines led to a death threat – Bob Smietana
https://www.washingtonpost.com/religion/for-evangelical-leader-jamie-aten-advocating-for-vaccines-led-to-a-death-threat/2021/04/27/ce95acbe-a7a5-11eb-a8a7-5f45ddcdf364_story.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: When Aten, executive director of the Humanitarian Disaster Institute at Wheaton College, began to urge his fellow evangelicals to get vaccinated, however, things got ugly. “How’s your Monday going?” he tweeted on April 27. “Mine started with having to file a police report in response to the increasing number of threats I’m getting for encouraging white evangelicals to get vaccinated against COVID-19.” Aten, who teaches at an evangelical college and identifies as an evangelical, told Religion News Service he’d filed a report with the sheriff’s office in DuPage County, Illinois, where he lives, after getting an email claiming his work on vaccines was “punishable by death.” The email was part of a pattern of emails and calls from people angry about Aten’s work helping Christian groups and churches respond to the COVID-19 vaccine. The threats intensified after he spoke to The New York Times about the need for evangelicals to be vaccinated.)
