This year, the aforesaid succeeded in muzzling me and muzzling my GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters by stopping me from doing that.)
https://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2021/nov/2/conservative-pundit-prager-says-he-feels-muzzled-b/
(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.)

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?)

— COMMENT: While I worked for the federal government for almost 30 years, I was extremely reluctant to seek advice and to take advice from my superiors because they were under tremendous pressure from Democrat politicians to get rid of their employees who shared my demographics. 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.

— Employment: Search for better job proves fruitless – Chris Breach (COMMENT: All my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes promote age discrimination.)
https://www.daily-journal.com/business/employment-search-for-better-job-proves-fruitless/article_3df77900-1b11-11ec-8a3b-cf363be21e2a.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: So, he says, the fruitless hunt for a job is not due to a lack of a resume. Rather, he believes, it’s his age. “The biggest point I’m trying to make is I’m an older worker,” he said. “… I’ve applied [at companies] a number of times. I counted them up the other day — it was 25 different places I’ve applied, and some of them multiple times. I can’t get an interview. “It’s the only thing I could come up with,” he said of his age. “It’s the only thing I could figure.” Kunsch said he thinks his age eliminated him immediately for consideration for many of those positions. While an employer can’t legally inquire about an applicant’s age, some job search websites have required drop-down menu items that might give away an applicant’s age, including year of graduation, etc. “That’s age discrimination,” he said. “There’s got to be a way of governing that. I don’t know.” He’s not alone in feeling like his age has served as a deterrent for potential employers.)

WASHINGTON POST
— We Can’t Educate Our Way to Racial Economic Equity – Michael Collins (COMMENT: I worked for GAO’s Chicago office group that audited federal financial industry regulators 1990-1997. In 1992, IIT started a master’s degree program in financial markets and trading. (SEE: https://www.upi.com/Archives/1992/08/04/IIt-offers-new-financial-markets-graduate-degree/1463712900800/ ) The courses in that program were directly related to the work that the group did. Sadly, I was the only member of the group that took those courses. I earned a master’s degree from IIT in financial markets and trading in 1997. In 1997, when I was 49 years old, my Democrat GAO superiors succeeded in forcing me to take their early retirement “offer” so that they could give my Black subordinate my job and my preferred corner office.)
