In 1997, when I was 49 years old, my Democrat GAO superiors succeeded in a) forcing me to take their early retirement “offer,” b) giving my job to my Black subordinate, and c) giving my preferred corner office to him. Democrat plants, Libertarian plants, Green plants, Independent plants, and RINOs in the following side with my Democrat GAO superiors: Milton Township Republican Organization, DuPage County Republican Central Committee, Illinois Republican Party, Wheaton Chamber of Commerce, Wheaton Park District (WPD), Wheaton, Milton Township, DuPage County, Illinois, TAPROOT Republicans of Illinois, Illinois Center Right Coalition, American Association of Political Consultants Midwest Chapter, conservative organizations, religious organizations, those who I have sued, and Democrat plant, Libertarian plant, Green plant, Independent plant, and RINO candidates on ballots in my precinct and their political consultants, major donors, fundraisers, pollsters, campaign managers, campaign staff members, and campaign volunteers.

USA TODAY
— When will Christians learn from the unending engagement cycle of evangelicalism and race? Evangelical culture is an unending story of engagement, retreat when pressures intensify, and regret at our failure to achieve any lasting change. – Ed Stetzer, Executive Director, Wheaton College Billy Graham Center
https://www.usatoday.com/story/opinion/2021/09/28/bible-evangelicals-duty-fight-racism/5847173001/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: As the executive director of the Wheaton College Billy Graham Center, one of my joys is leading people through our museum. Filled with historical artifacts and pictures, it’s a testimony to God’s faithfulness. One of my favorite pictures is of Billy Graham standing next to Martin Luther King Jr. I start by telling people how Graham took down segregation ropes for his meetings in the South. But the story doesn’t stop there. Historian Grant Wacker notes that as the civil rights movement intensified, Graham distanced himself from King by attempting to chart a moderate path. Decades later, Graham himself would speak of his lack of engagement in the civil rights movement as one of his great regrets. This same story of engagement, retreat and regret has come to define an evangelical culture that is bigger than Billy Graham.)

https://www.americanthinker.com/blog/2021/09/freedom_is_the_right_to_inequality_or_an_equal_right_to_be_unequal.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: People, by their nature, are not uniform. We are all different, and immediate equality among us can only be achieved by forcibly bringing us to the lowest common denominator. Equality between the rich and the poor can only be achieved by confiscating the riches. Equality between the strong and the weak can only be achieved by emasculating the strong. Equality between the smart and the stupid can only be achieved by casting intelligence as a defect. Thus, a fully equitable society would be a society of the poor, the weak, and the stupid, held together by force.)

Further, my outstanding parents provided me with room and board in their home in Crete a) while I took courses at UIC 1966-1968, b) weekends during my first semester at NIU in 1969, and c) the summer of 1969.

Instead of debating ideas, progressives call Larry Elder a white supremacist. – William McGurn (COMMENT: Should everyone involved in politics and in government be required to fully disclose how much education and how much money that their parents’ have/had? Neither of my outstanding parents attended college. My father fought type 1 diabetes from age 14, was the first of his ancestors to earn a high school diploma, worked in the office of a nasty chemical plant in Chicago Heights, almost always worked second jobs to pay the family’s bills, and died suddenly of heart failure in 1969 when I was 21 years old. My mother never attended high school.)
https://www.wsj.com/articles/gavin-newsom-white-privilege-larry-elder-racism-inequality-california-recall-election-11631566580
(FROM THE ARTICLE: If the polls going into Tuesday’s recall election in California hold up, Gavin Newsom will keep his job as governor. But if he does, no one should ever again take seriously progressive complaints about white privilege. Because if white privilege is a thing, Mr. Newsom is drenched in it. Mr. Newsom’s father was a well-connected state judge who once managed one of the trusts for the family of oil magnate J. Paul Getty. As for his son, the Los Angeles Times says that “a coterie of San Francisco’s wealthiest families has backed him at every step of his rise.” This privilege is reflected in the $70 million Mr. Newsom raised to fight the recall—more than five times the $13 million raised by his leading challenger, Republican Larry Elder.)

— Unfair retirement cuts – James Glover, President, Chapter 1309 (COMMENT: I am one of those 99,640. My Social Security is $365 less each month because I get a Civil Service Retirement System pension. I paid Social Security taxes while I washed dishes, cleaned golf shoes, chipped slag, pumped gasoline, delivered mail, worked on an automobile assembly line and as a security guard, sold tires, automotive services, and major appliances, etc. 1964-1974.)
https://www.dailyherald.com/discuss/20210902/unfair-retirement-cuts
(FROM THE LETTER: I am a retired federal employee who loses $500 per month from my earned Social Security benefit. In 1984, Congress unfairly reduced public employee SSA pensions by two-thirds of the benefit earned and promised for no reason other than to save SSA money. No other category of pensions was reduced. We urge Congress to pass HR 82 and S1302 to remedy this unjust treatment. This unfair law adversely affects 99,640 citizens in Illinois and needs to be repealed so we can get the same benefits earned like everyone else.)

In his penultimate State of the City address as mayor, Steve Adler broadsided his political opponents, blaming them for misrepresenting the condition of Austin. – BRAD JOHNSON (COMMENT: Ever-increasingly, your mayor is under ever-increasing pressure from Democrats to blame Republicans for all the problems that your municipality has, and especially those Republicans who are law enforcement officers, Trump supporters, conservative, patriotic, White, male, older, heterosexual, married, non-poor, gun owners, Christian, Protestant, Italian American, German American, and/or those whose ancestors have been in America for a long time. How is your mayor responding? This year, Wheaton stopped Republicans from helping sponsor its Independence Day parade and fireworks.)

Most commonly, RINOs reject the traditional family, right to life, immigration, illegal drugs, Second Amendment, and/or equal opportunity (no race or gender based preference giving) planks in the Republican Party platform. Far too often, RINOs promote dependency on government, dependency on charity, LGBTQ, abortion, mass/illegal immigration, booze, gambling, pot, and other vices, abolition of the First and Second Amendments, patronage, reverse discrimination (wokeism, BLM, CRT, 1619, reparations, etc.), and/or age discrimination. I should write a book about RINOs. I would focus on RINOs who destroy a) those who they cannot manipulate/dominate, b) those who refuse to glorify and praise them, c) those who refuse to pander to them, d) those who refuse to serve as one of their operatives or dupes, e) those who refuse to cover up their wrongdoing, and/or f) those who refuse to give them money.)

Republican voters like me who oppose the promotion of dependency on government, dependency on charity, LGBTQ, abortion, mass/illegal immigration, booze, gambling, pot, and other vices, abolition of the First and Second Amendments, BLM, CRT, 1619, reparations, patronage, political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, and age discrimination are underrepresented in America, in Illinois, in DuPage County, in Milton Township, in Wheaton, and in Wheaton’s West district. Republican voters like me who wanted Republicans to help sponsor Wheaton’s 2021 Independence Day parade and fireworks are underrepresented in DuPage County, in Milton Township, in Wheaton, and in Wheaton’s West district.)

AMERICAN THINKER
— From Prophets to Loss: Woke Activism and America’s Jews – Ardie Geldman (COMMENT: I should write a book about my Democrat superiors, supervisors, coworkers, and subordinates in the federal government who worked the hardest to turn my many Democrat superiors, supervisors, coworkers, and subordinates who were Jewish against me. They stressed that I was baptized, raised, and confirmed as a Missouri Synod Lutheran, that I was 100% German national origin, that I was conservative, that I was Republican, that I lived in Crete 1948-1972, and that I have lived in Wheaton since 1978. In my defense, I stressed that all my ancestors immigrated during the 1840s and 1850s, 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 during WWII if he had not been 4-F. Virtually all my Democrat superiors in the federal government who took adverse actions against me were Jewish.)

I should write a book about my Democrat GAO superiors who were most furious a) that GAO hired me in 1980 instead of a Black, b) that GAO promoted me in 1986 instead of a Black, and c) that GAO did not get rid of me sooner than it did so that a Black could have my job and my preferred corner office.)

Ever-increasingly, Democrats, Libertarians, Greens, Independents, and RINOs hint/imply/argue/shout that White male Republicans are racists. How should White male Republicans respond?)

TOWNHALL
— The Fight Over Identity – Ben Shapiro (COMMENT: Democrats do not want Americans to see themselves first as being Americans. Instead, Democrats want Americans who are a) minority to see themselves first as being minorities, b) female to see themselves first as being females, c) younger to see themselves first as being younger, d) LGBTQ to see themselves first as being LGBTQ, e) Democrat to see themselves first as being Democrat, f) Trump-haters to see themselves first as being Trump-haters, g) moderate/liberal to see themselves first as being moderate liberal, h) non-Christian to see themselves first as being non-Christian, i) non-Protestant to see themselves first as being non-Protestant, j) non-Italian American to see themselves first as being non-Italian American, k) non-German American to see themselves first as being non-German American, l) those whose ancestors have not been in America for a long time to see themselves first as being those whose ancestors have not been in America for a long time, and m) those who have financial, health, and/or other problems to see themselves first as being those who have financial, health, and/or other problems.)
https://townhall.com/columnists/benshapiro/2021/08/18/the-fight-over-identity-n2594324
(FROM THE ARTICLE: America has been wrecked on the shoals of identity. Identity politics has been characterized casually as a form of tribalism: Americans grouping themselves according to biological or sexual characteristics, in opposition to other groups associated by biological or sexual characteristics. And there is certainly truth to the idea that such tribalism has damaged America in extraordinary ways — that tribalism acts as the sort of factionalism the founding fathers feared, tearing Americans from each other and forcing them into polarized units competing against others in a battle over control. But there is another form of identity politics even more sinister than the sort of tribalism we see so openly today. That is a form of identity politics that focuses less on politics than on identity: the redefinition of identity itself.)
