WASHINGTON TIMES
— Bob Dole, ex-Kansas senator, Senate Republican leader and presidential nominee, dies at 98 – James Varney
(DIERSEN: Dole walked in Wheaton’s 1996 Independence Day Parade with Edgar and Dole spoke at a rally in Wheaton’s Memorial Park right after the parade. I camcorded his speech. Democrats, Libertarians, Greens, Independents, and RINOs have always vehemently opposed Republican participation in Wheaton’s Independence Day parades. I should write a book about that vehement opposition since 1978. I would focus on those Democrats, Libertarians, Greens, Independents, and RINOs who succeeded in stopping Republicans from helping sponsor Wheaton’s 2021 Independence Day parade and fireworks.)

NEW YORK TIMES
— JUNE 9, 2017 FLASHBACK: Stop and Acknowledge How Much Luck Has to Do With Your Success – Carl Richards
(COMMENT: What do you assert was bad luck and not your fault? All during the almost 30 years that I worked for the federal government, my superiors were under tremendous pressure from Democrat politicians to get rid of their employees who were Republican, and especially those who were White, male, older, and/or non-veteran. In 1997, when I was 49 years old, my Democrat GAO superiors succeeded in forcing me to take their early retirement “offer.” In 1987, my Democrat GAO superiors succeeded in forcing my GAO mentor to retire; he had hired me in 1980, got me assigned to audits of IRS in 1986, and promoted me to GS-13, currently $102,188/year in 1986. In 1981, Charles Bowsher took over GAO and ran it for the next 15 years. Under Bowsher, GAO shrank dramatically and is now just a shell of what it once was. I suffered a 21% ($20,361/year) pay cut in today’s dollars to transfer from IRS to GAO in 1980. In 1975, my Democrat IRS superiors succeeded in forcing my IRS mentor to transfer to Texas; he had promoted me to GS-9 in 1972, to GS-11 in 1973, and to GS-12, currently $85,935/year, in 1974. Republican losses in Illinois, DuPage County, Milton Township, and Wheaton increased dramatically since I a) became a Republican Precinct Committeeman in 1999, b) served as the Milton Township Republican Organization webmaster 2000-2004 and 2008-2010, c) served as an Illinois Center Right Coalition Steering member 2003-2007, d) served as a Wheaton Chamber of Commerce Government Affairs Committee member 2003-2011, e) served as the TAPROOT Republicans of Illinois chairman 2005-2012, and f) raised funds from DuPage Republicans 2005-2019 so that DuPage Republicans could help sponsor Wheaton’s Independence Day parades and fireworks. Ever-increasingly those who move into my precinct are Democrats. My wife and I have fertility problems serious enough to stop us from having children.)

EPOCH TIMES
— University of California Dumps SAT Test in Favor of ‘Equity’ – James Breslo
https://www.theepochtimes.com/university-of-california-dumps-sat-test-in-favor-of-equity_4125929.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: For decades the University of California (UC) relied upon SAT test, as well as grades, to admit the highest achieving students into California’s best universities. Such standardized tests are ubiquitous in society, used in primary, secondary, and higher education, as well as for obtaining a license for most professions, or simply to drive a car. But the UC determined after much study that, as a group, whites and Asians score higher on the tests than “black and brown communities” (as the left calls them). It thus concluded that the test is inherently discriminatory and must be abandoned for the UC to achieve the goal of “equity” in its admission process. The UC faculty, through the “Academic Senate,” oversees the admissions process. It explained: “This decision, which is part of the ongoing effort by the university to advance educational opportunity and equity, was based on the view that these tests are biased because they systematically and unfairly reduce the likelihood that underrepresented and low-income high school students will be accepted to the university.” Yes, University professors, whom one would expect to be among America’s smartest people, concluded that a standardized test must be to blame for a community’s poor performance, rather than members of the community being less prepared. But the truth is, these professors are predominantly leftists, and this is the same flawed logic the left uses to argue that criminal laws are discriminatory when they are more often violated by a minority group. The UC ignores the most obvious explanation for the poor performance. African Americans (only 5.8 percent of California’s population), are far more likely to have been raised in a single parent home. As Senator Barack Obama noted, children who grow up without a father are nine times more likely to drop out of school. Latinos (39 percent of California’s population) are far more likely to have been raised by recent, legal or illegal, immigrants with less education and English as their second language. Further evidencing that it is not the test but the test-takers, the Academic Senate considered another test as a replacement. However, it determined that the so-called “Smarter Balanced” test resulted in the same “discriminatory” results! The truth is, the professors know the test is fair, they just do not care about the qualifications of the applicants. All they care about is “equity,” i.e., that racial and ethnic groups are represented in equal proportion. This leftist thinking ignores the individual in favor of the group. It shows no concern for the underlying reasons children from these groups are not doing better on the test. And, it ignores that not everyone in these groups are underprivileged, e.g., LeBron James’ kids, and that not everyone in white and Asian communities are privileged. Equity requires the end to Martin Luther King’s dream of equal treatment regardless of race. Equity requires that we look at race to ensure an “equal” outcome.)

I should write a book about those who have used my avoiding the draft against me the most.

https://www.cnsnews.com/index.php/commentary/tony-perkins/rnc-weve-got-ticket-pride
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The Left must go to bed most nights thanking its lucky stars for the Republican Party. If it weren’t for some misguided GOP leaders, the Democratic Party would probably be well on its way to irrelevance in 2022. But instead of watching the other side pack its bags for the minority after last Tuesday’s drubbing, Republicans have decided to leave the door open a crack — first by voting for another $1.2 trillion dollars in unnecessary spending and now by throwing out the welcome mat to the one cause (apart from CRT) that’s swung parents to the GOP’s side: LGBT radicalism.)
