— COMMENT: Democrats say “GOP Rep. George Santos Vows to Serve Out His Full Term as More Republicans Push Him to Resign.” To get preference, people falsely claim to be members of groups that get preference. Ever-increasingly, under the Democrats and under the RINOs, members of the following groups get preference: minority, female, younger, LGBTQ, veteran, non-Protestant, non-Italian American, non-German American, and those whose ancestors have not been in America for a long time. To give preference to one group is to discriminate against another group. Therefore, ever-increasingly, Democrats and RINOs discriminate against members of the following groups: White, male, older, heterosexual, non-veteran, Italian American, German American, and those whose ancestors have been in America for a long time. I should write a book about the aforesaid.

CENTRAL ILLINOIS PROUD
— COMMENT: Democrats say “Jeffries to GOP on Santos: Clean up your house.” To get preference, people falsely claim to be members of groups that get preference. Ever-increasingly, under the Democrats and under the RINOs, members of the following groups get preference: minority, female, younger, LGBTQ, veteran, non-Protestant, non-Italian American, non-German American, and those whose ancestors have not been in America for a long time. To give preference to one group is to discriminate against another group. Therefore, ever-increasingly, Democrats and RINOs discriminate against members of the following groups: White, male, older, heterosexual, non-veteran, Italian American, German American, and those whose ancestors have been in America for a long time. I should write a book about the aforesaid.

UNIVERSITY OF ILLINOIS CHICAGO
— UIC students, faculty and staff can report their experiences by using the Bias Reporting Tool (COMMENT: Ever-increasingly, Democrats, Libertarians, Greens, Independents, and RINOs promote bias if not hatred against Republicans who share Trump’s demographics: conservative, White, male, older, non-poor, married, gun owner, Protestant, German American, and/or those whose ancestors have been in America for a long time. I should write a book about the aforesaid in Wheaton, in Milton Township, in DuPage County, and in Illinois.)
https://today.uic.edu/bias-reporting-tool/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: In an effort to make UIC a place grounded in inclusion, equity, diversity and justice, UIC students, faculty and staff can report their experiences by using the Bias Reporting Tool. The Office of the Dean of Students, Office of Diversity and/or the Office for Access and Equity will follow up to offer support and resources to those who have reported bias, discrimination or harassment. By reporting an incident that was experienced or witnessed, UIC is able to gain valuable information about issues impacting the campus community. Forms can be submitted anonymously.

ILLINOIS STATE RIFLE ASSOCIATION
— The ISRA is Seeking Plaintiffs. Illinois Law Signed into Effect by Governor Pritzker Violates the Second Amendment. (COMMENT: Plaintiffs should be protected with restraining orders. Have you ever been an active member in a class action lawsuit? In 1988, when I was 40 years old, the lawyer who led a big class action lawsuit that charged GAO with reverse discrimination, age discrimination, and retaliation sought plaintiffs in all GAO’s offices. I was the only employee in GAO’s Chicago office who became an active member of that big class action lawsuit. My Democrat GAO Chicago office superiors retaliated against me viciously. For the rest of my GAO career, a) they kept me off audits of IRS, b) they gave me extremely unfair job assignments, performance expectations, and performance appraisals, c) they turned my supervisors, coworkers, subordinates against me, d) they assigned me to supervise the office’s most problematic employees, e) they always ranked me in the bottom half of my coworkers for pay-for-performance purposes, and f) they forced me to take their early retirement “offer” in 1997. Of course, the aforesaid discouraged my many Chicago office coworkers who were White, male, older, and/or non-veteran from joining the lawsuit with me even though many of them complained about reverse discrimination, age discrimination, and/or retaliation. Instead of joining the lawsuit with me, they “cut deals” with my Democrat GAO Chicago office superiors. I should write a book about the aforesaid.)

DALLAS MORNING NEWS
— COMMENT: Democrats say “Abbott says migrants in ‘military style gear’ are crossing border in ‘invasion’ of Texas. Governor shrugs off rebuke for ‘invasion’ rhetoric. Migrants have worn camouflage to avoid detection since long before Biden took office.”

POLITICO
— COMMENT: Democrats say that Rodney Davis lands a “cushy lobbying gig.” When my Democrat GAO superiors succeeded in forcing me to take their early retirement “offer” in 1997 when I was 49 years old, they succeeded in stopping me from getting a job appropriate for someone with my work experience, professional certifications, professional license, and education. Ever-increasingly, employers want employees who promote Affirmative Action, Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion, that is, who promote political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, age discrimination, dependency on government and charity, LGBTQ, CRT, 1619, BLM, reparations, wokeness/wokeism, religious discrimination, national origin discrimination, and even worse things.

HR DRIVE
— COMMENT: Democrats say “EEOC enforcement plan targets systemic racism.” In 1971, when I was 22 years old, Oldsmobile withdrew a job offer that I had accepted saying that it had just agreed to stop hiring Whites to settle an EEOC complaint. That directly resulted in my accepting a job offer from IRS.

NEWS ONE
— COMMENT: Democrats say “Forty Acres And A Mule 158 Years Later: For The Future Of Reparations, Remember The Black South.

INVESTOPEDIA
— Medallion Signature Guarantee: What It Is and Where to Get One – JAMES CHEN (COMMENT: I should write about extreme difficulties in obtaining medallion signature guarantees from banks in the Wheaton area that offer those guarantees. So far, my having lots of money in those banks for many years has not helped much.)
https://www.investopedia.com/terms/m/medallionsignatureguarantee.asp
(COMMENT: Normally, you can obtain a Medallion signature guarantee at a financial institution where you are a customer. The bank may assess a small charge for this service; fees can range from $0 for customers with solid, established relationships to upward of six figures. For financial institutions with on-site stamps, the stamp guarantee can be provided on the same day provided there are no outstanding requirements or errors. Otherwise, it could take between two and five business days for a review. Because the guaranteeing institution’s assets back the certification, a guarantee stamp is not easy to obtain.)

MERRIAM WEBSTER
— Turn against (COMMENT: I should write a book about those in Wheaton, in Milton Township, in DuPage County, and in Illinois who have been the most successful in turning people against those like me who share Trump’s demographics: conservative, White, male, older, non-poor, married, gun owner, Protestant, German American, and/or those whose ancestors have been in America for a long time. I would focus on those hate-filled Trump-hating Trump-hates a) who destroy those like me who they cannot manipulate or dominate, b) who destroy those like me who refuse to glorify and praise them, c) who destroy those like me who refuse to pander to them, d) who destroy those like me who refuse to serve as one of their operatives or dupes, e) who destroy those like me who refuse to cover up their wrong doing, and/or f) who destroy those like me who refuse to give them money.)
