https://abc7chicago.com/chicago-violence-downtown-teen-takeover-shootings/13177485/
— Democrats say that “Chicago Mayor-elect Brandon Johnson pledges to ‘invest in our young people’ at Austin church event.” Who invested in you? My outstanding parents invested in me a) by having me baptized as a Missouri Synod Lutheran (MSL) in 1948, b) by sending me to Trinity Lutheran Grade School in Crete 1953-1961, c) by sending me to Hope Lutheran Grade School in Park Forest 1961-1962 to stay with the Missouri Synod, and d) by having me confirmed as a MSL in 1962.
https://abc7chicago.com/chicago-mayor-brandon-johnson-austin-events/13176366/
— Democrats say “Teen summer job outlook.” What did you do with your summers when you were young? I did yard work in 1962, 1963, and 1964. I delivered newspapers 1962-1966. I washed dishes in 1965. I cleaned golf shoes, chipped slag, and pumped gasoline in 1966. I delivered mail in 1967, 1968, and 1969. The aforesaid enabled me a) to buy a 1958 Chevrolet Bel Air in 1964, b) to buy a new 1966 Pontiac Tempest Sprint in 1966, c) to pay for my UIC expenses 1966-1968, d) to buy a new 1968 Oldsmobile 442 in 1967, e) to buy a new 1969 Dodge Charger SE in 1968, f) to pay for my NIU expenses in 1969 and 1970, and g) to graduate debt-free from NIU in 1970 with a bachelor’s degree in management and owning that Charger.

— Democrats say “At least 9 teens wounded in shooting at Texas after-prom party.” Did you attend your high school prom? I did not. My female Crete-Monee High School classmates did not see me as being “college material.” I could not run because I had a bone disease. My eyesight could not be corrected to 20/20. I had partial red/green color blindness. During my junior and senior years, and the summer in between, I washed dishes for the minimum wage in the basement of the S.S. Kresge in Chicago Heights. In my defense, I took college preparatory courses, I graduated in the upper 20% of my class, my ACT score was 24, I got accepted by UIC, and with the money that I earned washing dishes, I bought a new 1966 Pontiac Tempest Sprint in May of 1966.

— Democrats say “Voluntary childlessness has become a topic of debate.” Government is nasty/vicious. Politics is nasty/vicious. Democrats are nasty/vicious. My Democrat GAO superiors, supervisors, coworkers, and subordinates not only viciously demonized me, denigrated me, and condemned me because my wife and I gave up trying to have children, because we did not adopt, and because we did not become foster parents, they a) hinted/implied/argued/shouted that I lied about our efforts to have children and b) severely punished me for that. In 1989, to punish me, they threw me off audits of IRS, gave me an adverse job assignment, gave me unfair performance expectations, turned my subordinates against me, gave me an unfair performance appraisal, and ranked me at the bottom of my coworkers for pay-for-performance purposes. They hinted/implied/argued/shouted that if my wife and I had children, a) I would not have been able to pass the CPA examination on my first attempt in 1979, earn a master’s degree in accounting from DePaul in 1980, pass the Certified Internal Auditor examination on my first attempt in 1981, become a licensed CPA in 1981, or get promoted in 1986 and b) my wife and I would not have been able to have a house built in Wheaton in 1984, my wife would not have been able to earn a bachelor’s degree in finance from DePaul in 1986, and I would not have been able to buy a 1962 Impala SS collector car in 1989. I should write a book about the aforesaid. Better yet, I should sue my Democrat GAO superiors, supervisors, coworkers, and subordinates. I would focus on those who had children and/or had spouses who had little or no income and who blamed that for all their problems.

ROLLING STONE
— Democrats say that the Trump campaign wants to destroy DeSantis. My critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes 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, f) who refuse to serve as one of their operatives or dupes, g) who refuse to cover up their wrong doing, and/or h) who refuse to give them money.

GOPUSA ILLINOIS
— The Daily Herald is looking for subscribers to become newsroom sources. In its email to its subscribers, it says “We’re interested in compiling a community experts guide for our reporters. Is there an expertise you have that we should include? This is not a guide we would publish. It’s a guide our reporters would use when they’re looking for a source for a particular story. . .What kind of expertise do you have? We are not just interested in expertise per se. If you have life experiences — could be tragic, could be joyful — that give you a helpful perspective on the human condition that others might share, we’d be interested in talking with you.” – Dave Diersen
