(FROM THE ARTICLE: The prosecutors in the Senate are called House managers. They will be selected by House Speaker Nancy Pelosi. The U.S. Constitution is silent on the number of managers. There were 13 House managers for President Bill Clinton’s 1999 Senate trial, led by House Judiciary Chairman Henry Hyde, the Illinois Republican who died in 2007.)

GAO works for Congress. I can always ask myself what more my Democrat GAO superiors would have done to me if I had not taken their early retirement “offer” in 1997 when I was 49 years old. They had given me unfair performance expectations and appraisals, had always ranked me in the bottom half of my coworkers for pay-for-performance purposes, had not promoted me beyond GS-13, had gotten rid of my mentor in 1987, had kept me off audits of IRS for all but 3 of the almost 18 years that I worked for GAO, and had forced me to take a $19,568 (21%) pay cut in today’s dollars to transfer from IRS to GAO in 1980.)

https://www.news-gazette.com/opinion/editorials/editorial-no-contest-election-contests/article_d94351ac-5dc9-56d1-8459-6cbc091aa606.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The candidate filing period has come and gone, and here are the dispiriting results for the 118 seats up for election in the Illinois House and the 20 seats up for the Illinois Senate. Of the 118 House districts, 54 feature just one candidate running. Of the 20 Senate seats, 12 contests will provide voters only one choice. What happened to the concept of competitive elections, the engine that makes the democratic process run? In Illinois, they appear to be an afterthought, at least as far as the state legislature goes. But appearances can be deceiving, and what in this case could be perceived as indifference or apathy actually is the product of careful design.)

https://www.latimes.com/politics/story/2019-12-15/this-is-impeachment-3-for-me-ouch
(FROM THE ARTICLE: In 1998, when House Republicans set out to impeach President Bill Clinton for lying about sex, they claimed lofty ambitions. “This has to be a bipartisan exercise,” Rep. Henry J. Hyde of Illinois, then chairman of the House Judiciary Committee, told me back then. He failed. His committee produced four articles of impeachment, all but one on strict party lines. The full House approved only two: perjury and obstruction of justice. The Republican-led Senate acquitted Clinton of both charges; no one in the president’s party voted against him. History repeated itself last week in mirror image.)

BUSINESS INSIDER
— Bernie Sanders wants to end at-will employment, and that’s a truly bad idea that would increase unemployment – Ryan Bourne (DIERSEN: Democrats run the federal government. Those Democrats a) determine what civil service protections federal employees have; b) falsely tell federal employees who are Republican, White, male, older, and/or non-veteran that they will not retaliate against them because they complain about discrimination, file a charge of discrimination, or participate in an employment discrimination investigation or lawsuit; and c) get rid of federal employees who are Republican, White, male, and/or non-veteran who they do not promote to GS-13 (currently $98,198) by age 25, GS-14 (currently $116,040) by age 30, GS-15 (currently $136,495) by age 35, and Senior Executive Service (currently $165,500) by age 40.)

https://www.forbes.com/sites/johnmauldin/2019/12/02/americas-full-employment-hides-a-dirty-secret/#9c6e22d7c157
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Should just being “employed” make people/workers happy? On one level, any job is better than no job. But we also derive much of our identities and self-esteem from our work. If you aren’t happy with it, you’re probably not happy generally. Unhappy people can still vote and are often easy marks for shameless politicians to manipulate. Their spending patterns change, too. So it ends up affecting everyone and everything. Unhappy Employment There’s this plight of people who, while not necessarily poor, aren’t where they think they should be—and perhaps once were. This disappointment isn’t just in their minds; the economy really has changed. Yes, you can probably get a job if you are physically able, but the odds it will support you and a family, if you have one, are lower than they once were.)

https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/opinion/liberal-activists-twist-poll-data-to-spread-falsehoods-about-lgbtq-voters-hating-trump
(DIERSEN: Wow: 93% of lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and queer people disapprove of President Trump! And 90% support the impeachment of the supposed evil ‘anti-LGBTQ’ villain. Or at least, that’s what LGBT Inc., the activist class and lobby, is claiming, based on the results of a new YouGov/Out Magazine survey into the 2020 election. The left-wing activist organization Human Rights Campaign, essentially an arm of the Democratic Party, put out a press release touting the poll’s results, declaring that “LGBTQ Voters Strongly Condemn Trump.” It highlighted selected figures from the survey and concluded, “One thing is clear, while LGBTQ people are diverse in race, identity and opinion, they are unified in opposition to the Trump-Pence administration.”)
