(FROM THE ARTICLE: “If I say the ‘wrong thing’ — whatever that might be — on my Fireside Chat podcast for PragerU, I can be yanked off YouTube or Facebook. When big business and big government work together to muzzle free speech, that’s fascism,” Mr. Prager said. The nationally syndicated talk show host’s comments came as his company PragerU continues to wage a long legal battle against Google’s YouTube. The 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals last year ruled unanimously against Mr. Prager‘s claim of illegal censorship of conservatives. But Mr. Prager continues to allege that YouTube prevents PragerU from advertising videos due to unexplained violations of community guidelines, restricting other videos as likewise inappropriate and adding a disclaimer that the content may be factually incorrect. “Never in the history of this country has free speech been in such jeopardy. What’s even more shocking is that the threat is not coming directly from the government but from woke corporations,” Mr. Prager said.)

MICHIGAN DAILY
— APRIL 12, 2021 FLASHBACK: Republicans aren’t conservative anymore – Lydia Storella
(COMMENT: What should I say to my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes who stress that none of following came to my defense when Wheaton and the Wheaton Park District (WPD) stopped me this year from raising funds from DuPage Republicans so that DuPage Republicans could help sponsor Wheaton’s Independence Day parade and fireworks: a) leaders of the Milton Township Republican Organization, DuPage County Republican Central Committee, Illinois Republican Party, etc.; b) Republican leaders of Wheaton, WPD, Wheaton Chamber of Commerce, Milton Township, DuPage County, Illinois, etc.; c) conservative leaders; d) religious leaders; and e) Republican candidates on ballots in my precinct, their political consultants, major donors, fundraisers, pollsters, campaign managers, campaign staff members, campaign volunteers, f) etc.?

Should one construe that the aforesaid will not seek a government or political office as a Republican in the future? Should one construe that the aforesaid have “moved to the left?” Should one construe that the aforesaid have become anti-conservative? Or should one construe that my critics/opponents have promised to destroy ANYONE who might come to my defense? If Wheaton and the WPD “let” me raise funds from DuPage Republicans to help sponsor Wheaton’s 2022 Independence Day parade and fireworks like I did 2005-2019, will candidates on June 28, 2022 Republican primary ballots in DuPage County contribute? If not, why not?)

Further, I knew that my Democrat superiors would advise me to do things that I would not do, namely, become a Democrat, help them get rid of their employees who shared my demographics, promote the Democrat Party platform, promote political affiliation discrimination, promote reverse discrimination, promote age discrimination, etc. Instead, I took my own advice and earned a) a job-related bachelor’s degree when I was 21 in 1970 and job-related master’s degrees when I was 27, 31, and 48, b) job-related professional certifications when I was 30, 32, 41, 45, 47, and 48, and c) a job-related professional license when I was 32.

Far too many Republican elected officials in Illinois a) view me as being far too conservative; b) promote patronage, political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, and/or age discrimination; c) only want employees who are minority, female, younger than they are, veteran, share their religion, and/or share their national origin, d) only want employees who are blindly loyal to them personally, e) only want employees who they can manipulate/dominate, f) only want employees who glorify and praise them, g) only want employees who pander to them, h) only want employees who cover up their wrong doing, and/or i) only want employees who give them money.)

It would be great if the Illinois Republican Party would publish on its website a list of those who are leading the fight against CRT in each of the 102 counties. It would be great if each of the 102 Republican county party organizations would publish on their websites a list of those who are leading the fight against CRT in each of the school districts in their county.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: A group in Illinois is looking for chapters across the state to help keep tabs on teaching plans they say are dividing children. A parent in Naperville, Shannon Adcock, said she became aware of “culturally responsive teaching” when she was unsuccessful in running for the school board. She said the more she learned about it, the more she felt it was regressive and divisive by teaching children race or gender directly impacts outcomes. “You are having students segregated by their color, by their sexuality, by their any number of filters that an activist teacher can choose and say ‘so because of your skin color you are a problem, because of your skin color you will never make it in life, because of this intangible systemic problem in one of the greatest countries in the world,’ and to me, it’s to me extremely anti-Americanism, it’s anti-child and I believe it to be child abuse,” Adcock told WMAY. “Teach history, there’s no question about that, but when you begin filtering students, this becomes a problem and it’s a violation, a constitutional violation.” She said the curriculum can take many different names and forms, so she and others seeing similar trends in other parts of the state started the website AwakeIL.com as a way to share information with taxpayers, parents and educators about trends around the state. “We are going to preserve the integrity of our constitution, state and federal, and we’re going to take that divisive curricula and segregationist approach to education out of our classrooms,” she said.)

(DIERSEN: The Republican Party platform calls for equal opportunity, that is, for no race or gender based preference giving.

https://www.nprillinois.org/post/exploring-difference-between-equity-and-equality-america#stream/0
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Heritage Foundation: “Opinion: Biden’s Embrace of ‘Equity’ Means He’s Abandoned the Quest for Equality” — “President Biden preaches unity but practices division. Witness his ‘Executive ­Order on Advancing Racial Equity and Support for Underserved Communities Through the Federal Government,’ part of an unprecedented barrage of such orders.” Wall Street Journal: “‘Equity’ Is a Mandate to Discriminate” — “On his first day as president, Joe Biden issued an ‘Executive Order on Advancing Racial Equity and Support for Underserved Communities.’ Mr. Biden’s cabinet nominees must now explain whether this commitment to ‘equity’ means they intend to abolish ‘equal treatment under law.’ Their answers are a confused mess.” Wall Street Journal: “How Equality Lost to ‘Equity’” — “The first time Shelby Steele used the word ‘equity’ in one of his books—’White Guilt,’ published in 2006—he was referring to the value his father had accrued in restoring ‘three ramshackle homes to neat lower-middle-class acceptability.’”)

https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2021/03/08/new-wedge-states-rush-block-transgender-athletes/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The US Department of Education suspended a decision that found racial “affinity groups” discriminated against students and staff, The Post has learned. The goal of the programs — used by the New York City public school system and other school districts — is to separate students and staff by racial groups in order to help address discrimination and “white privilege.” But the practice of separating schools into racial groups is discriminatory, a determination obtained by the Post found. The findings — reached during the waning days of former President Trump’s time in office in early January — were in response to a complaint about a Chicago-area school district’s “racial equity” training programs and lesson plans.)
