fact checker? ANSWER: While I worked for GAO 1980-1997, the last 11 years of
which at GS-13 Step 1-10 levels, currently $101,176-$131,532/year, I
increasingly worked as a referencer, that is, as a fact checker. That work
required assuring the accuracy and support for each and every word, number,
table, graph, chart, conclusion, opinion, and recommendation in GAO reports. I
worked for IRS 1971-1980, the last 5 1/2 years of which at the GS-12 Step 1-5
levels, currently $85,084-$96,431/year. My other fact checking qualifications
include my becoming a Forensic Accountant in 1997, Certified Fraud Examiner in

1979.)

— Stories Of The Enslaved In Illinois – TARA MCCLELLAN MCANDREW (DIERSEN: When
did your ancestors come to Illinois? Mine came to Chicago in 1844. Sooner or
later, if not already, the longer that your ancestors have been in Illinois,
the more that Democrats, Libertarians, Greens, and RINOs will demand that you
pay more reparations, that is, that you pay more of the price of Affirmative
Action, Diversity, and Inclusion. Further, the more of the following that you
are, that more reparations that they will demand you to pay: Trump supporter,
Protestant, conservative, patriotic, Republican, American, White, male, older,
non-poor, gun owner, German American, and draft avoider.)
https://www.nprillinois.org/post/stories-enslaved-illinois#stream/0
(FROM THE ARTICLE:
Contrary to what we’ve been told and taught, Illinois was not a free state.
Slavery and indentured servitude —slavery by another name — were legal here
from the early 1700s until 1863. Blacks (and Native Americans early on) were
bought, sold, auctioned, kidnapped, indentured, punished, controlled, gifted
and taxed as property in the Land of Lincoln.)

FOX NEWS
— Can Mitt Romney actually be expelled from the Republican Party? – Tyler
Olson (DIERSEN: In Illinois, the more planks in the Illinois Republican Party
(IRP) platform that you support, the more likely that Democrat plant, Libertarian
plant, Green plant, and RINO party leaders will expel you.)
https://www.foxnews.com/politics/can-mitt-romney-actually-be-expelled-from-the-republican-party
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The
U.S. political system may be run by two major parties, but compared with other
countries, those parties have very little control over the positions espoused
and votes cast by their members. The Republican National Committee has nothing
in its rules about expelling an individual member from the party. In fact,
while it is active as a campaign arm of the GOP and provides guidance to state
parties and individual members on the general direction of the party, the RNC
typically only has full control over the national party convention it hosts
every four years. Most of its rules have to do with filling various party
offices, delegate selection for the national convention and the procedure by
which its convention runs. The only rule the RNC has regarding support for
individual candidates bans it from supporting candidates in contested primaries
and stipulates that someone running for another party’s nomination cannot be
recognized as the GOP nominee. The Utah Republican Party does have a provision
for expelling candidates from party membership, but it would not apply to
Romney. A rule in the Utah GOP’s by-laws mandates that candidates running for
office as a Republican have to sign an agreement saying they support the state
party’s platform with a list of any platform stances they disagree with.
Candidates who do not sign the agreement “will automatically forfeit their
Party membership two days following the State designated candidate
filing-period deadline.”)

a potential violation of law (18 USC 2071),” he tweeted. “Nobody is
above the law. She must be held accountable.” And he wasn’t the only one.
Rep. Kay Granger (R-Tex.) also introduced a resolution criticizing Pelosi for
her act. “Speaker Pelosi’s actions last night were appalling and
shameful,” read a statement from Granger. “Regardless of her personal
feelings, she had a responsibility to conduct herself with civility as the
presiding officer representing the House of Representatives. She is not the
Speaker of the Democrats, but of the People’s House.” Rep. Paul Gosar
(R-Ariz.) tweeted that he introduced a resolution to censure Pelosi.)
