CHICAGO TRIBUNE
— Hanover Park police officer busted by ICE back to full duty. DD: All my employers would have hired noncitizens instead of me if they could have. My critics/opponents cannot say anything like that because they did not have to take bad jobs like I had to. I had to work my way through college. Their parents had lots of money. They bought them cars, paid for their college expenses, and got them good jobs. I did yard work 1962-1964. I delivered newspapers 1962-1966. I washed dishes 1964-1966. I cleaned golf shoes, chipped slag, and pumped gasoline in 1966. I delivered mail 1966-1969. I worked on an automotive assembly line in 1970. I sold tires, automotive services, and major appliances 1970-1971. I pumped more gasoline 1971-1972. I collected delinquent federal taxes 1971-1980. I audited federal agencies 1980-1997.

DAILY HERALD
— FRONT PAGE TOP OF FOLD WITH PHOTO: A Republican running to succeed longtime U.S. Rep. Jan Schakowsky in the largely suburban 9th District was convicted of a sex crime against a juvenile decades ago. DD: Political parties exist to help elect candidates who can and will defend and advance their platform. The Republican Party platform is conservative. Voters demand more from Republican candidates than from Democrat candidates. They demand even more from Republican candidates who state that they are conservative. Candidates can always run as Independents. Should political parties have the power to stop candidates from seeking offices as a member of their party? If so, what criteria should be used? Far too many candidates have tremendous skeletons in their closets. When those skeletons come out, not only they lose, but the party that they ran under loses. When their skeletons come out, far too many Republican candidates blame me and blame my GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters. But nothing has ever been in my newsletters that was not already in the public realm and/or was already known by the Democrats. Democrat leaders have always falsely claimed to have first learned of Republican negatives from my newsletters. Far too many who are involved in Republican activities are Democrat plants.

(FROM THE ARTICLE: Friedman’s rivals for the GOP nomination have had varied reactions to his criminal history, as have suburban party leaders. Cleveland surprised Friedman by loudly disclosing his status as a registered sex offender during a candidate meet-and-greet last month in Northbrook. A Cleveland campaign aide then asked Friedman about the case while filming the conversation. That video subsequently was shared with the Daily Herald. When asked about Friedman’s past via email this week, Su said no elected official should have a history of sex offenses. Elleson expressed reluctance to comment on Friedman’s conviction, saying he didn’t know the details. A church pastor, he said everyone deserves a second chance. “I believe in giving everyone the benefit of the doubt,” Elleson said in an email. “None of us know the whole story.” Cook County Republican Party Chair Aaron Del Mar called Friedman’s conviction “entirely disqualifying” and said he should drop out of the race. “Voters have every right to expect basic decency and transparency from anyone asking to serve in Congress,” said Del Mar, who’s campaigning for lieutenant governor as Darren Bailey’s running mate. “Someone with this kind of conviction has no business running for federal office, and it is an insult to the voters of the 9th District to pretend otherwise.” Lake County Republican Party Chair Keith Brin noted that political parties have no control over who runs for office. He encouraged voters to research candidates.)

— IVF is Not the Answer to Your Infertility– (There’s a Better One) DD: I should write about my critics/opponents who have used against me the most my and my wife giving up trying to have children without trying IVF, our not adopting, and our not becoming foster parents. According to them, if we had children, I would not have been able a) to pass the CPA examination on my first attempt in 1979, b) to earn a master’s degree in accounting in 1980, c) to pass the Certified Internal Auditor examination on my first attempt in 1981, and d) to become a licensed CPA in 1981. The aforesaid enabled me to transfer from IRS to GAO in 1980 and to get promoted by GAO to GS-13 in 1986. Would Duckworth agree with my critics/opponents, and if so, why? Duckworth stresses what she has accomplished since she successfully used IVF.

WASHINGTON EXAMINER
— Have high school boys really gotten that bad? DD: Do you attend your high school reunions? Were you marriage material when you were in high school? I was not. 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. Neither of my parents attended college. My father was only the first of my ancestors to earn a high school diploma. My mother never attended high school. My ACT score was only 24. I only just barely made it into the upper 20% of my class. But worst of all, during my junior and senior years, I spent 28 hours a week washing dishes and 40 hours a week during the summer in between.
https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/magazine-your-land/3897943/have-high-school-boys-really-gotten-that-bad/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: At a time when marriage and birth rates are rapidly declining, a recent Pew poll finding that 12th graders are far less interested in getting married today than they were 30 years ago is alarming. In 1993, according to Pew, some 80% of all 12th graders said they were likely to get married someday, compared to just 67% of 12th graders who said the same thing today. Meanwhile, those who are not interested in marriage at all have almost doubled, from 5% to 9%. But when you drill down on the numbers, an interesting gender imbalance develops. In 1993, 83% of 12th-grade girls expressed a desire to get married someday, compared to 76% of boys. But today those numbers are reversed, with an almost identical 74% of 12th-grade boys interested in marriage, but only 61% of girls. Responding to the new Pew numbers, feminist author Jill Filipovic posted on X, “Might be worth asking what it is about high school boys that girls don’t find appealing, I have a feeling the list is long and informative.” As someone who was once a high school boy (way back in 1993, actually), I can attest that Filipovic is absolutely correct that it would be easy for any high school girl to make a long list of things they did not find appealing about my fellow male classmates and me. But in our defense, we were teenage boys, and we had lots of growing up to do before we became appealing to women. My question for Filipovic is, have high school boys really gotten so much worse than I was in the 1990s? Or maybe our schools and culture are sending a lot more anti-marriage messages to girls today than they were 30 years ago. Pick any Disney movie from the 1990s. Beauty and the Beast, Aladdin, The Lion King, Pocahontas, Hercules, and Tarzan all have romantic heterosexual relationships at their core. Fast forward to today, and Brave, Moana, Zootopia, Encanto, and Wish are all completely bereft of heterosexual pairing off. The female leads in all these movies are not only unmarried but also completely uninterested in marriage. Brave‘s entire storyline is anti-marriage. And in schools, marriage is never promoted while self-discovery and professional achievement are endlessly encouraged. The little time spent on relationships with boys is all negative. Girls are taught that men are dangerous and to recognize signs of dating violence, coercion, toxic relationships, grooming, and manipulation. But are they ever taught how rewarding a life-long marriage to a spouse can be, or what qualities to look for in a good partner? Nope. Never. That would be far too patriarchal and heteronormative. If we want our civilization to survive, we are going to have to turn our marriage and birth rates around. Maybe it’s time we started teaching our children how absolutely essential marriage is to their happiness and stopped attacking high school boys for being … high school boys.)

— For Gen Zers, finding work after college is often a painful slog. DD: What frustrated your job search? For me, it was potential employers seeing me as being draft bait. They did not believe that my application for a financial hardship draft deferment would be approved. Therefore, I took the only job offer that I got. But it was for a job that did not really require a college degree. After my application was approved, I was offered a job that did require a college degree. I accepted it. But that offer was withdrawn because that employer had just agreed to stop hiring Whites to settle an EEOC complaint. Because I had to have a job because I was helping support my mother and brother, I accepted a job offer from IRS.

I had been an active member in a class action lawsuit since 1988 that charged them with reverse discrimination, age discrimination, and retaliation. They wanted to give my job and my preferred corner office to my Black subordinate which what they did. He had less work experience than I had. He had less education than I had. He had one professional certification while I had six. He had no professional license like the one I had.

They wasted my career and forced me to retire when I was 49 year old in 1997 because I refused to become a Democrat, because I complained about their loyalty demand and their discrimination, and because I became an active member in a class action lawsuit that charged them with reverse discrimination, age discrimination, and retaliation when I was 40 years old in 1988.

GAO, I entered into the court record all the many performance reviews that my Democrat superiors gave me 1980-1997. None of them came close to justifying the many adverse actions that they took against me. They forced me to take a $23,472 (21%) pay cut in today’s dollars to transfer from IRS to GAO in 1980. They kept me off audits of IRS for all but 3 of the almost 18 years that I worked for GAO. They delayed my promotions and never promoted me beyond GS-13. They always ranked me in the bottom half of my coworkers for pay-for-performance. They forced me to retire when I was 49 years old in 1997.
