FOX BUSINESS
— Federal agency offering employers unconscious bias, diversity workshop. The program is part of the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission’s (EEOC) Training Institute. – Samuel Dorman (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.)

COLORADO SUN
— Some Colorado Republicans want to forgo their party’s 2022 primaries. Others think that’s “insane.” Under the proposal, to be voted on by the Colorado Republican Party’s central committee in September, GOP general election candidates would be picked through the caucus and assembly process. – Sandra Fish and Daniel Ducassi (DIERSEN: Most commonly, moderate candidates win Republican primaries because multiple conservative candidates run splitting the conservative vote.)
https://coloradosun.com/2021/08/05/2022-republican-primary-opt-out-vote/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: “I think it’s time for the party to start standing on its platform and principles and to get candidates who will do the same,” said Peg Cage, former chairwoman of the Boulder County Republicans, who supports forgoing the 2022 GOP primaries. “We can’t do that if we’re constantly going left and trying to placate the unaffiliated voters and the Democrats.” . . . “Having non-members decide who will be the Republican nominee is a golden opportunity for the opposition to infiltrate and to weaken our platform of liberty, justice, personal freedom, and adherence to our constitution,” Hanks wrote.)

https://fordauthority.com/2021/08/ford-salaried-buyouts-confirmed-for-select-employees/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: As Ford Authority has learned from sources familiar with the buyout plan, the packages are being targeted toward workers and teams dedicated to ICE-powered vehicles. Ford said that the “action is to further enable us to match our business priorities with the critical skills needed to turn around our automotive operations.” The Ford salaried buyouts are being offered to some white-collar workers as voluntary incentives to leave the company, which will allow Ford to avoid layoffs. Severance packages such as this are often offered to older workers nearing retirement who may be keener to take such a deal.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: With Breen now residing in the 42nd district, is he gearing up for another run for elective office? If so, Breen said, it wouldn’t be in a primary race against the district’s incumbent, Illinois state Rep. Amy Grant, R-Wheaton. “You don’t help get good people into office and then primary them,” Breen said. “I’m trying to bring more good people into the process.” Instead, Breen said, his family’s motivation behind moving was COVID-19.)

SOUTHLAND JOURNAL
— Chicago lawsuit gains national attention, commentary in New Hampshire
https://thesouthlandjournal.com/chicago-lawsuit-gains-national-attention-commentary-in-new-hampshire/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: A lawsuit filed in Illinois targeting critical race theory (CRT) teachings as discriminatory is fast drawing national attention. Evanston-Skokie District 65 drama teacher Stacy Deemar recently filed suit in federal court, charging the teachings are divisive and “perpetuate harmful racial stereotypes.” Deemar’s view seems to be one shared by others. “Not only does the suit, along with findings by the Department of Education, detail CRT’s usual litany of racially divisive indoctrination activities, but it also confirms that school officials use the ‘fighting racism’ excuse as cover for teaching that individualism and meritocracy are oppressive, that the ideal of ‘equality’ and even the nuclear family itself are both racist, and that true anti-racists will question the very foundations of the liberal order, including equality theory, legal reasoning, enlightenment rationalism, and principles of constitutional law,” the Auburn New Hampshire Free Speech Political Page posted on Facebook. Critics of the CRT system argue the problems don’t end there.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: There are also many grassroots opportunities in your local communities. The best leadership is local leadership, and Idaho has a strong network of local leaders. Each county has a Republican Central Committee that organizes, campaigns, and elects Republican candidates. Each central committee is comprised of precinct committee people, who are elected during primary elections every two years. Each voting precinct has a committee person (these are your neighbors!), so contact your local precinct committeeman and ask how you can become involved. It’s easy. You can visit idgop.org/county-parties for contacts in your community.)

— IRS controversies of the present, past haunt lawmaker talks – ALEXANDER BOLTON (DIERSEN: I should write a book about those in Illinois who have wasted my knowledge of IRS the most. I would focus on my a) Democrat GAO superiors and b) Republican U.S. Senators and U.S. Representatives, candidates for the aforesaid positions, their major donors, their political consultants, their fundraisers, their staff members, and their volunteers. I would focus on the aforesaid who demonized, denigrated, and condemned my knowledge of IRS the most. GAO audits IRS. Before I transferred from IRS to GAO in 1980 when I was 31 years old, I had worked for IRS for almost 9 years, the last 5 1/2 years of which at the GS-12 Step 1-5 Levels, currently $85,935-$97,395/year. My Democrat GAO superiors let me work on audits of IRS’s Criminal Investigation Division 1986-1989 when I was at the GS-13 Step 1-3 levels, currently $102,188-$109,001/year.)

So why can’t college grads find jobs? – Paul Davidson (DIERSEN: In 1970, when I was 21 years old, when I graduated from NIU with a bachelor’s degree in management, potential employers saw me as being draft bait and they were under pressure big time to hire minorities, females, and veterans. 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.)

According to my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes, all the jobs that I had were bad jobs that they would never stoop to take. I did yard work and delivered newspapers 1962-1964; washed dishes 1964-1966; cleaned golf shoes, chipped slag, and pumped gasoline in 1966; delivered mail 1966-1969; worked on an automobile assembly line and as a security guard 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.

CNN
— AP explains why it fired Emily Wilder for pro-Palestinian tweets – David Goldman (DIERSEN: AP hired Wilder knowing that she “was an active member of pro-Palestinian groups at her college. She was a proponent of Palestinian human rights and a critic of the Israeli government.” If I had been active in Republican politics when I attended high school 1962-1966, the Post Office would not have hired me in 1966. If I had been active in Republican politics when I attended UIC 1966-1968 or NIU 1969-1970, IRS would not have hired me in 1971. If I had been active in Republican politics when I attended Loyola 1972-1976 or DePaul 1976-1980, GAO would not have hired me in 1980.)
