— Minimum wage to increase for Illinois workers in January Workers in Illinois aged 18 and older who currently earn the minimum wage can expect a pay increase starting in January. The state will raise the minimum wage from $13 to $14 per hour. (COMMENT: I worked for the minimum wage 1964-1966. It was $1.25/hour, and adjusted for inflation, it was $12.21/hour. I washed dishes in the basement of the S.S. Kresge in Chicago Heights 4 evenings a week and Saturdays while I was a Junior and Senior at Crete-Monee High School and full-time during the summer in between. With the money that I earned and saved, I bought a new 1966 Pontiac Tempest Sprint in May of 1966 (a poor man’s GTO), to use to commute to/from classes at UIC and my parents’ home in Crete.)

I did yard work 1962-1964, delivered newspapers 1962-1966, washed dishes 1964-1966, cleaned golf shoes, chipped slag, and pumped gasoline in 1966, delivered mail 1966-1969, worked on an automobile assembly line in 1970, sold tires, automotive services, and major appliances 1970-1971, pumped gasoline 1971-1972, collected delinquent taxes 1971-1980, and audited federal agencies 1980-1997. Anticipate/expect that your critics/opponents will hint/imply/argue/shout a) that all the jobs that you had were bad jobs, b) that you did not get better jobs because of you had many serious faults and shortcomings, c) that you were nevertheless grossly overpaid, and d) that they would never stoop to take the jobs that you took. I should write a book about my critics/opponents. I would focus on the jobs that they had, how they got those jobs, and why they got those jobs. From what I see, the wealthier that your parents are, the better the jobs that you can get. My father worked in the office of a nasty chemical plant and never earned more than $50,000/year in today’s dollars, almost always worked second jobs (playing the piano, delivering eggs, working in an A&W) to pay the family’s bills, and died suddenly in 1969 when he was 47 and I was 21.

Quinn (COMMENT: Based on the many big adverse actions that anti-conservative leaders of the Milton Township Republican Organization, DuPage County Republican Central Committee, and Illinois Republican Party have taken against me since 2000, it is obvious that they would never have appointed me to be a Republican Precinct Committeeman. I should write a book about the aforesaid anti-conservative leaders and the many big adverse actions that they have taken against me since 2000 including rudely firing me as MTRO webmaster in 2004 and 2010 and slandering me during MTRO meetings.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: A Highland councilman is expected to be stripped of his precinct committee position after publicly endorsing the town’s Democratic Clerk-Treasurer candidate in the upcoming general election. Lake County Republican Chairman and Congressional candidate Randy Niemeyer confirmed Wednesday that he’ll be removing Highland Councilman Mark Schocke, R-3, from the precinct committee after Schocke appeared in a campaign mailer endorsing current Highland Clerk-Treasurer Mark Herak. Herak is running against Republican Kathy Camp-Burke. Because Schocke was appointed to the precinct, he can be removed at the County Chair’s discretion and not go through a hearing process as an elected committeeman would, Niemeyer said. He said he hadn’t executed the order as of Wednesday afternoon, but only because he hadn’t had the chance.

https://www.dailyherald.com/discuss/20231021/it-may-be-that-the-only-solution-to-house-chaos-is-true-cooperation-between-parties
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Eight Republicans forced the current crisis in the House when they engineered the ouster of former Speaker Kevin McCarthy on Oct. 5. But Democrats, remember, are not blameless. Any reasonably informed observer could have foreseen that when a small cabal of extremists managed to depose their party’s leader with no plan for a successor and no likely option waiting in the wings, trouble lurked for the entire body. The GOP chaos may have provided a few temporary partisan chuckles for Democrats, not one of whom lifted a finger to try to rescue McCarthy, but the situation facing the country now is not at all funny.)

— A Migrant Windfall: Nine Grand Each for Housing in Chicago. Biden demands loans and credit cards for illegals – so much for sustainable. – Joe Schaeffer
https://www.libertynation.com/a-migrant-windfall-nine-grand-each-for-housing-in-chicago/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: As Americans struggle mightily to cope with the buckling effects of inflation on food, gasoline, and other necessities, the benefits for illegal migrant newcomers keep piling up. The state of Illinois is funding temporary housing for migrants, providing up to $9,000 in rental assistance over six months. How many Americans could use a $9,000 housing stipend right about now? “That rent lasts for six months and ideally people would have started their legal process, secured legal work authorization and be able to sustain that apartment. And so the cost, or I guess the payment toward the landlord is based on market rate, it’s based on the configuration of the parament – how many rooms, where it’s located – all those things. And so it varies from place to place,” Cristina Pacione-Zayas, chief of staff to Democrat Mayor Brandon Johnson, told the Chicago’s Fox 32 TV station October 13. As is so often the case, Democrat notions of the “ideal” results of their feckless policies are failing to materialize. In New York City, where illegal migrants have become a crushing burden on the blue-run government, the new arrivals are simply not working. . .Chicago Democrats are starting to realize that their empty platitudes about welcoming the world to America are unaffordable, something any responsible adult should have realized from the beginning.)

October 13, 2023

Democrat leaders ever-increasingly bring illegals into America because Illegals vote for Democrats. However, everything is a zero-sum-game. To give preference to one group is to discriminate against another group. Democrat elected officials ever-increasingly give more and more and more preference to illegals, that is, to the citizens of foreign countries who they brought in. Consequently, Democrat elected officials ever-increasingly discriminate against citizens of America. Overwhelmingly, those citizens of America are Democrats who are poor, minority, female, and/or younger.

NPR ILLINOIS
— Democrats acknowledge that IRS acknowledges that “Gap between U.S. income taxes owed and paid is set to keep growing.” GAO audits IRS. The Democrats who ran IRS and GAO intentionally wasted my knowledge of IRS. I worked for IRS for almost 9 years, the last 5 1/2 years of which at the GS-12 Step 1-5 Levels, currently $92,279-$104,583/year. I worked for GAO for almost 18 years, the last 11 years of which at the GS-13 Step 1-10 Levels, currently $109,732-$142,650/year.

Those who earned professional certifications with you are your third most relevant peer group. How many of them earned a professional license? In my defense, few of my high school classmates earned a bachelor’s degree. Fewer earned a master’s degree. Even fewer earned a professional certification. I do not know of any who I earned a high school diploma with who earned a professional license. I earned a bachelor’s degree, three masters degrees, six professional certifications, and a professional license. Nevertheless, my critics/opponents who have lots of religious, government, political, and/or financial clout in Wheaton, Milton Township, DuPage County, and Illinois treat me like I never earned anything. I should write a book about my critics/opponents.

— September 30, 2023 FLASH BACK: Trump Republicans must take the reins of the Illinois GOP
https://ibendahlonpolitics.com/2023/09/30/trump-republicans-must-take-the-reins-of-the-illinois-gop/
(IBENDAHL UPDATE: A big thank you to everyone who already emailed me saying they wanted to be added to the list of Republicans who want a direct vote & a voice again in their Illinois Republican Party. It’s heartwarming to see so many standing up for their fellow Republicans. You folks truly get it. . .We’re still collecting names, so just let me know if you would like to be added to the growing list of supporters. We’re going to publish the list of supporters soon. We’re also going to publish the list of opponents–which I’m delighted to say is a very short list right now. Actually that’s not surprising. Anyone who actually cares about our Republican Party, as opposed to just their own selfish interest, does not have a problem with the idea of Republicans voting in their own party–just like we used to when Illinois was still a Red State. And yet there is a tiny handful, but those few names won’t surprise you. Thank you again, and just let me know if you have any questions. Also, your help in spreading the word would be greatly appreciated. We invite any and all Republicans in Illinois to stand up and proudly lend her or his name to a long past-due reform. When some selfish old GOP bosses took our vote away years ago, THAT was the radical & inexplicable change. All we’re talking about now is restoring some common sense & professionalism to the Illinois Republican Party. It’s a major first step towards becoming something other than a perpetually losing party in Illinois.)

WALL STREET JOURNAL
— FRONT PAGE: Steve Scalise Quits House Speaker Race. GOP nominee for top job ran into stubborn opposition from bloc of fellow Republicans – Siobhan Hughes, Kristina Peterson, Katy Stech Ferek, and David Harrison (COMMENT: I should write a book about those who oppose me and why they oppose me. I would focus on those who have lots of religious, government, political, and/or financial clout in Wheaton, Milton Township, DuPage County, and Illinois. I would focus on those who reject lots of planks in the Republican Party platform. I would focus on those who have taken the most/biggest adverse actions against me. I would focus on those who destroy those like me a) who they cannot manipulate or dominate, b) who refuse to glorify and praise them, c) who refuse to pander to them, d) who refuse to serve as one of their operatives or dupes, e) who refuse to cover up their wrong doing, and/or f) who refuse to give them money.)
https://www.wsj.com/politics/policy/steve-scalise-struggles-to-build-support-for-house-speaker-post-99be48e6
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The number of Scalise opponents was thought to stretch to as many as 20 members, beyond the dozen or so who had publicly rejected him. Those holdouts include Rep. Lauren Boebert of Colorado and Max Miller of Ohio. Disgraced New York Congressman George Santos, who faces federal fraud charges, also said he would oppose Scalise, saying the lawmaker had ignored him. Santos has denied wrongdoing. Many of the holdouts said they viewed electing Scalise as simply extending the status quo, while others have specific objections tied to strategy around spending bills or the process used to conduct the speaker election. Former President Donald Trump, who had endorsed Jordan in the GOP contest, said he would back whomever the party unites behind, while also pointing to health worries about Scalise. “I’m going to be with anybody they pick,” he said on Fox News Radio. “The one thing with Steve, he’s got to get well…he’s got to get strong.”)

While I worked for GAO 1980-1997, those adverse actions included a) forcing me to take their early retirement “offer” in 1997 when I was 49 years old, b) always ranking me in the bottom half of my coworkers for pay-for-performance purposes, c) delaying my promotions and never promoting me beyond GS-13, d) keeping me off audits of IRS except 1986-1988, and e) forcing me to suffer a $21,863/year (21%) pay cut in today’s dollars to transfer from IRS to GAO in 1980. While I worked for IRS 1971-1980, those adverse actions included a) never promoting me beyond GS-12, b) disallowing my education deductions in 1978, and c) disallowing my travel vouchers in 1974. While I worked for the Post Office 1966-1969, those adverse actions included a) forcing me to resign in 1969 and b) disallowing my sick leave requests in 1969 and 1968. My Democrat superiors stressed a) that I am a conservative Republican, b) that I was baptized, raised, and confirmed as a Missouri Synod Lutheran, c) that I am 100% German national origin, d) that I lived in Crete 1948-1972, and e) that I have lived in Wheaton since 1978.)

My Democrat GAO superiors, supervisors, coworkers, and subordinates were furious about that because I had only worked for GAO for 13 years. I had worked for IRS for 9 years and for the Post Office for 3 years. They were especially furious that I got full-time seniority credit while I worked for the Post Office even though I worked only part-time.)

I did yard work and delivered newspapers in Crete 1962-1964; washed dishes in Chicago Heights 1964-1966; cleaned golf shoes in Flossmoor and chipped slag and pumped gasoline in South Chicago Heights in 1966; delivered mail in Park Forest 1966-1969; worked on an automobile assembly line in Belvidere and as a security guard in DeKalb in 1970, sold tires, automotive services, and major appliances in Chicago Heights 1970-1971, pumped gasoline in Chicago Heights 1971-1972, collected delinquent taxes in Chicagoland 1971-1980, and audited federal agencies 1980-1997. I earned four job-related college degrees, six job-related professional certifications, and a job-related professional license.

QUAD CITY TIMES
— Democrats ever-increasingly demand that employers pay a “living wage.” A “living wage” is far more than a minimum wage. Minimum wage jobs are for those who have little or no job skills or work experience – typically teenagers. Why should employers be expected/forced to pay a “living age” to anyone who has little or no job skills or work experience? Back in the “good old days,” I earned the minimum wage ($12.05/hour in today’s dollars) while I washed dishes in the basement of the S.S. Kresge in Chicago Heights and lived with my parents in Crete and attended Crete-Monee High School. With the money that I earned, I bought a new 1966 Pontiac Tempest Sprint in May of 1966 that I used to get to/from my parents’ home and a) jobs cleaning golf shoes in Flossmoor and chipping slag and pumping gasoline in Chicago Heights during the summer of 1966, b) my job delivering mail for the Park Forest Post Office 1966-1967, and c) classes at UIC 1966-1967. I sold it in December of 1967 and bought a new 1968 Oldsmobile 442.

POLITICO ILLINOIS
— Concerns of pre-slating sexism – SHIA KAPOS (COMMENT: Why don’t Republican county party organizations in Illinois have slating meetings like the Democrats have? Who will the Republican candidates be for Auditor, Clerk of the Court, and Recorder of Deeds in DuPage County? Who will the Republican candidates be for DuPage County Board seats and for DuPage County Forest Preserve seats?)
https://www.politico.com/newsletters/illinois-playbook/2023/06/16/concerns-of-pre-slating-sexism-00102383
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Alarm bells were raised at the pre-slating meeting Thursday for the Cook County Democratic Party, where wanna-be candidates for 2024 made a pitch for endorsements. This is a get-to-know-you meeting before official slating in August. Judicial candidates starred in Thursday’s pre-slating. Today, candidates for county offices and the water board will make their case. More on that below. Serious concerns: During Thursday’s presentation, Maggie O’Keefe, the committeewoman for the 40th Ward, called out the Illinois State Bar Association for not recommending more women of color. O’Keefe had expressed similar concerns ahead of the 2022 primary.)

I should write a book about my RINO leaders in Illinois Republican Party, DuPage County Republican Central Committee, and Milton Township Republican Organization have used AA since 2000 to make many/big adverse actions against me so that could advance minorities, females, and younger people over me, which is exactly what they did.)

https://www.dailyherald.com/news/20230124/dupage-county-sheriff-could-face-censure-over-refusal-to-enfore-weapons-ban
(FROM THE ARTICLE: DuPage County Board member James Zay, a Carol Stream Republican, said he supports Mendrick and would not support a censure. “I support our Sheriff Jim Mendrick and his right to speak out about the problems with this act,” Zay said, referring to the state’s new law banning high-powered guns and high-capacity magazines. He questioned the level of scrutiny Mendrick has endured from state and federal lawmakers. “I’m concerned about the voracity we’re going after law enforcement officials and nothing about stronger penalties for those who commit crimes with a firearm,” Zay said. County board members listened to nearly an hour of public comment from residents, many of who supported Mendrick. More than 200 residents also registered comments online before Tuesday’s meeting.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: Des Plaines Councilwoman Alderman Carla Brookman slammed censor-happy leftists and hecklers during a recent city council meeting, proclaiming, “If you don’t allow discussion, that is a real problem in our society.” Woke residents of Des Plaines, Illinois, were outraged to discover that Awake Illinois, a conservative organization partnering with Moms for Liberty and Gays Against Groomers, was coming to speak at a city-owned theater, according to a report by PJ Media. The offended woke residents then called on the city to shut down the event, claiming it was being run by a “hate group.” “I looked at the online invitation and the lineup of speakers at this event, and it’s a very diverse guest panel, and they’re defending children and speaking of reforming education,” Councilwoman Brookman said during a January 17 city council meeting.)

FORBES
— Dr. Anthony Fauci’s Retirement Pay Will Exceed $350,000 Per Year – The Largest In U.S. Federal Government History – Adam Andrzejewski
(COMMENT: In 1997, when I was 49 years old, my GS-13 Step 10 GAO salary was $132,845/year in today’s dollars. My Civil Service Retirement System pension is only $54,864/year today a) because my Democrat Post Office superiors forced me to resign in 1969 when I was 20 years old, b) because my Democrat IRS superiors refused to promote me beyond GS-12, c) because my Democrat GAO superiors refused to promote me beyond GS-13, and d) because my Democrat GAO superiors forced me to take their early retirement “offer” in 1997 when I was 49 years old and had worked for the federal government for almost 30 years and had almost a year of unused sick leave. Generally, you reach the 80% limitation when you have worked for the federal government for 42 years not including accumulated sick leave; that would have been 2010 for me. 80% of GS-13 Step 10 salary is $106,276/year. 80% of GS-14 Step 10 salary is $125,583/year. 80% of GS-15 Step 10 salary and Senior Executive Service salary is $138,000/year.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: Fauci has 55 years of service as a federal employee. For the second year in a row, Fauci was the most highly compensated federal employee and out earned the president, four star generals, and roughly 4.3 million of his colleagues. As director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID), Fauci earned $434,312 in 2020, the latest year available, up from $417,608 in 2019. . .Federal employees with Fauci’s length of service can retire to earn “80 percent of [their] high-3 average salary, plus credit for [their] sick leave,” according to the U.S. Office of Personnel Management. . .So, at this point, we can use only the last three published years of his salary — 2018: $399,625; 2019: $417,608; and 2020: $434,312 — to calculate his potential retirement earnings. Dr. Fauci earned a total of $1.252 million from 2018-2020 in salary as a federal employee. If he’d left federal service at the end of FY2020, figuring 80% of his highest three-year average, would mean a federal pension of $333,745 a year, plus cost-of-living increases (($1,251,545/3) x 80% = $333,745). However, Fauci’s unpublished FY2021 and FY2022 salaries are likely commensurate, if not higher than his 2020 salary. Therefore, his retirement pay would be closer to $347,500 a year. (($1,302,936/3) x 80%).

— MAY 19, 2014 FLASHBACK: A wealth of advice. Nearly $2 billion flowed through consultants in 2003-2004 federal elections. – Sandy Bergo
(COMMENT: I should write a book about Republican candidates on ballots in my precinct since 2000 who have acted like they took advice from my critics/opponents a) to not read my GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters and b) to blame me and my newsletters for all their problems, for all your problems, for all my problems, and for all of everyone’s problems. Previously, my critics/opponents blamed what I did raising funds from DuPage County Republicans so that they could help sponsor Wheaton’s Independence Day parades and fireworks 2005-2019 and my serving as a) the TAPROOT Republicans of Illinois chairman 2005-2012, b) a Wheaton Chamber of Commerce Government Affairs Committee member 2003-2011, c) the Milton Township Republican Organization webmaster 2008-2010, d) an Illinois Center Right Coalition Steering Committee member 2003-2007, and e) an American Association of Political Consultants Midwest Chapter board member 2000-2004.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: In the 2004 federal races, more than $1.85 billion flowed through a professional corps of consultants whose influence plays an important, though largely unexamined, role in the unrelenting escalation of campaign spending, a groundbreaking Center for Public Integrity study has found. The money going to these consultants amounted to more than half of the total spending by presidential candidates, national party committees, general election candidates for Congress, and so-called “527”s — independent political groups. The high cost of running for office raises concerns because fundraising demands can ultimately bind elected officials to special interest donors and lobbyists who help with fundraising — deepening the widely held perception that politicians serve the interests of large contributors over those of constituents. Potential candidates who can’t meet the fundraising demands are shut out.)
