CHICAGO TRIBUNE
— Governors State paid $1.5M to terminated employees, even though many of them
did no work: state watchdog – Dawn Rhodes (DIERSEN: Constructively, so far, the
Democrats who run the federal government have forced the Civil Service
Retirement System to pay me $1,186,201 in today’s dollars to not come to work.
That is 267 months times $4,443. In September of 1997, when I was 49 years old,
my Democrat GAO superiors succeeded in forcing me to take their early
retirement “offer.”)

and gave Gardiner the finger. – Fran Spielman (DIERSEN: I should write a book
about those who remain furious that I was elected or appointed to the following
instead of them. I was elected or appointed to the following: TAPROOT
Republicans of Illinois chairman (2005-2012), Wheaton Chamber of Commerce
Government Affairs Committee member (2003-2011), Milton Township Republican
Central Committee webmaster (2008-2010 and 2000-2004), Illinois Center Right

— Projection in Campus and Party Politics – PHILIP CARL SALZMAN
https://pjmedia.com/news-and-politics/projection-in-campus-and-party-politics/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: It is
common to observe projection in campus and party politics, and in human affairs
generally. “Projection” is a well-understood psychological mechanism in which a
person or collective accuses another of doing what the accuser himself or
itself is doing. “Psychological projection is a defense mechanism people
subconsciously employ in order to cope with difficult feelings or emotions.
Psychological projection involves projecting undesirable feelings or emotions
onto someone else, rather than admitting to or dealing with the unwanted
feelings.” The classic example of Freudian projection is that of a woman who
has been unfaithful to her husband but who accuses her husband of cheating on
her. . .Many highly entertaining examples of projection can be seen in recent
party politics. Members of the Democrat Party and the mainstream media have
accused President Trump being a potential dictator who would not honor an
election which he had lost, and who would thus undermine the American electoral
democracy. This from a party and media that refused to accept the 2016
election, and set about from the day of the inauguration to overturn the
election and cancel the duly-elected president, most recently seen in the House
impeachment of the president. Thus, the Democrat Party accuses the Republican
president of not respecting the Constitution and election results, at exactly
the same time as they reject the 2016 election winner. Leading members of the
Democrat Party have accused and continue to accuse President Trump of
conspiring with a foreign power to interfere with the 2016 election, and to be
similarly interfering with the upcoming 2020 election.)

— Is political affiliation the new discrimination? Our research suggests ‘yes’
– PHILIP L. ROTH, JILL E. ELLINGSON AND JASON B. THATCHER (DIERSEN: If I had
been active in Republican politics, GAO would not have hired me in 1980, IRS
would not have hired me in 1971, and the Post Office would not have hired me in
1966. Further, because they view me as being much “too conservative”
and as someone who they cannot manipulate/dominate, the Republicans who ran
Illinois, DuPage County, Milton Township, Wheaton, etc. would never have hired
me.)
https://thehill.com/opinion/technology/472200-political-affiliation-the-new-discrimination-our-research-suggests-yes
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The
U.S. is experiencing substantial political polarization. Words like “hate” and
“loathe” are routinely used to describe opposing party members, to the point
that over 60 percent of voters are angry and worried about the direction of the
country. Recent events may be a manifestation of this anger. Rep. Steve Scalise
(R-La.) was shot because of party membership, and members of “The Squad” among
the Democrats in the House routinely receive death threats. Americans don’t
believe the situation will improve. Further, political polarization — and
violence — is occurring in other countries such as England (Brexit) and France
(rioting over fuel taxes and other policies). At the same time, social media
screening is increasingly common when hiring, with over half of recruiters
reporting that they check social media accounts such as LinkedIn and Facebook,
or conduct Google searches. Such platforms make a wide variety of personal
information easily accessible to recruiters — including political affiliation.
The increasingly partisan landscape paired with information about party
affiliation sets the stage for political affiliation to affect hiring.)
