— Median pay for the chief executives of more than 300 of the biggest U.S. public companies reached $13.7 million last year, up from $12.8 million for the same companies a year earlier. – Theo Francis and Kristin Broughton (DIERSEN: My critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes have absolutely no problem with the aforesaid, but they have always viciously demonized me, viciously denigrated me, and viciously condemned me as being overpaid by the federal government. In today’s dollars, my GAO salary was $132,845/year in 1997 when I was 49 years old. In my defense, I had worked for GAO for almost 18 years and I had worked for IRS for almost 9 years before that. I had become a Forensic Accountant in 1997, Certified Financial Services Auditor in 1996, Certified Government Financial Manager in 1994, Certified Fraud Examiner in 1990, and a licensed CPA in 1981. I had passed the Certified Internal Auditor examination on my first attempt in 1981 and the CPA examination on my first attempt in 1979. I had earned a master’s degree in financial markets and trading from IIT in 1997, master’s degree in accounting from DePaul in 1980, MBA from Loyola in 1976, and bachelor’s degree in management from NIU in 1970.)

— Unionization rates are trending down in the private sector, despite increased focus in Washington – Eric Morath and Lauren Weber (DIERSEN: GAO did not unionize until 2007. If GAO had been unionized in 1997, I might still be a GAO employee. I was a union member 1966-1969 while I worked for the Post Office and I was a union member 1971-1980 while I worked for IRS. Overwhelmingly, my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes are filled with hatred against unions, against current union members, and against former union members. I should write a book about my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes who have demonstrated their hatred against unions, against current union members, and against former union members the most.)

https://www.chicagotribune.com/news/breaking/ct-election-municipal-low-turnout-20210407-ecvcvo77nbap7nxzox3glwxkyq-story.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: At the county level, voter turnout mostly hovered in the low to midteens, typical for many counties in consolidated elections. On the lower end, McHenry County reported a voter turnout of 9.5%, and Kankakee County topped voter turnouts across the counties at 18.6%. The pandemic didn’t have a significant effect on voter turnout, according to county clerks’ offices, with sufficient alternative options for people to vote early or by mail instead of in person. In Cook, DuPage and Lake counties, turnout was 14.7%, 15.6% and 13.7%, respectively. In Will County, southwest of Chicago, 15.8% of voters cast a ballot Tuesday. That’s nearly 3 percentage points higher than the previous consolidated election in 2019, which had a voter turnout of 13.2%, said Charles Pelkie, chief of staff for the Will County clerk’s office.)

https://townhall.com/tipsheet/leahbarkoukis/2021/04/01/obama-the-oppressor-n2587252
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Progressive leftists across the country are demanding that schools named after people who don’t pass their purity tests get new monikers. But in Waukegan, Illinois, they’re having a difficult time finding a suitable alternative. Two committees comprised of students, staff, and those in the community were tasked with renaming the Thomas Jefferson Middle School and the Daniel Webster Middle School, the first because he was a slave owner and the latter because he supported slavery. During a school board meeting on Tuesday to discuss some of the finalists for the Thomas Jefferson Middle School, immigration activists expressed their disapproval over one of the finalists: former President Barack Obama. . .So now, despite being America’s first black president, Obama is considered an “oppressor,” not woke enough to have a school named after him.)

https://www.americanthinker.com/articles/2021/04/breaking_down_and_breaking_up_.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Joe Biden woke up on third base and thinks he hit a triple. Someone has told the president that he was elected by the American people to fundamentally change our country. He thinks he has a mandate, and that all that stands between him and success is a few ornery Republicans in the Senate who refuse to get out of the way. Correction. Biden believes that the only thing standing between him and greatness are cranky senators who do not see the United States as systemically racist, who don’t believe in vastly expanding the welfare state, who think that individual creativity and achievement have built our great country and who are absolutely positive that Democrats are leading us down a very dangerous path.)

Kansas Senate Majority Leader Gene Suellentrop was pulled over by the Topeka Police Department and the Kansas Highway Patrol after driving the wrong way on a Topeka highway. Callers to 911 initially reported seeing a white SUV driving west in the eastbound lanes of I-470 starting near Wanamaker Road and minutes later on I-70 around 12:45 a.m. It was the Kansas Highway Patrol that identified the driver of the SUV as Republican Kansas Senate Majority Leader Gene Suellentrop.)

NEW YORK TIMES
— Biden’s Push for Electric Cars: $174 Billion, 10 Years and a Bit of Luck. The president is hoping to make electric vehicles more affordable to turn a niche product into one with mass appeal. – Niraj Chokshi
https://www.nytimes.com/2021/03/31/business/biden-electric-vehicles-infrastructure.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: President Biden is a muscle-car guy — one of his most prized possessions is a 1967 Corvette that he got from his father. But he’s trying to make this an electric vehicle world. The $2 trillion infrastructure plan that he unveiled on Wednesday is aimed at tackling climate change in part by spending up to $174 billion to encourage Americans to switch to cars and trucks that run on electricity, not gasoline or diesel. That is a large investment but it might not be enough to push most Americans toward E.V.s. Despite rapid growth in recent years, electric vehicles remain a niche product, making up just 2 percent of the new car market and 1 percent of all cars, sport-utility vehicles, vans and pickup trucks on the road. They have been slow to take off in large part because they can cost up to $10,000 more than similar conventional cars and trucks. Charging E.V.s is also more difficult and slower than simply refilling the tank at far more prevalent gas stations.)

https://www.forbes.com/sites/andrewsolender/2021/03/31/house-gop-memo-argues-for-embrace-of-trump-coalition-some-republicans-find-distasteful/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: It is unclear who is in the “embittered and loud minority” Banks describes, but several Republican lawmakers have expressed displeasure about the direction the GOP has gone under Trump, particularly the rise of the QAnon conspiracy movement. Rep.

NEW YORK POST

To “eliminate the competition between states that they are losing,” lefties are “pushing bills that would put the federal government in charge of states’ labor laws, fiscal policies and voting rules” — from stimulus funds that prohibit state-level tax cuts to ballot-box “reforms” intended to enhance blue turnout in red places. These “egregious power-grabs” are “downright authoritarian.”)
