very clear that they would never stoop to take the jobs that I had. I did yard

eligible will undergo an online physician consultation, which will allow them
to obtain a prescription and delivery of a welcome kit, which includes the
Abbott product and a wireless scale. Users of the Freestyle Libre system can
get real-time readings through a sensor worn on the back of the upper arm,
which transmits the information to a smartphone. Abbott officials said the
system will give Omada real-time glucose data that can help participants to
better manage their diabetes.)

— Embattled former alderman Danny Solis uses loophole to double pension – Dane
Placko (DIERSEN: My Democrat GAO superiors, supervisors, coworkers, and
subordinate were beyond furious that I could and did retroactively purchase for
very little money almost 3 years of full-time Civil Service Retirement System
credits for when I worked only part-time for the Park Forest Post office
1966-1969. They were already furious that when I transferred from IRS to GAO in
1980 when I was 31 years old, I transferred with me almost 12 years of federal
seniority, 30 days of unused vacation days, and 130 days of unused sick
days.)
https://www.fox32chicago.com/news/embattled-former-alderman-uses-loophole-to-double-pension
(FROM THE ARTICLE:
However, they also informed Solis of a sweetener only available to elected
officials in Chicago, allowing them to purchase pension credits retroactively.
So in January, Solis wrote two checks to the pension fund totaling a little
more than $128,000. That allowed Solis to more than double his pension payout
to $7,900 a month and $94,000 a year. Zettler says Solis’ pension boost will
pay off that $128,000 investment in just two and a half years, and also put
another $1.3 million in Solis’ pocket if he lives another 15 years, which is 10
times the initial investment. “It’s a can’t-lose situation for the people
involved,” said Zettler. Amazingly, Solis was able to buy retroactive pension
credits for his three-month stint working for the Chicago Public Library in the
1960s when he was 17 and have it paid out based on his six-figure aldermanic
salary.)

activity, abortion, mass/illegal immigration, abolition of the First and Second

DAVIS (DIERSEN: Who hates German Americans the most in your neighborhood, in
your precinct, in your municipality, in your township/ward, in your county, and
in Illinois? Government is nasty. Politics is nasty. Democrats and Democrat
plants, Libertarians and Libertarian plants, Greens and Green plants, and RINOs
are nasty. I should write a book about a) how my Democrat superiors,
supervisors, coworkers, and subordinates in the federal government used and b)
how my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes in Wheaton, Glen
Ellyn, Milton Township, DuPage County, and Illinois use my 100% German national
origin against me. They constantly foist negative German stereotypes on me. I
would focus on those who are German American, but who demonize, denigrate, and
condemn me to curry favor with those who hate German Americans. They paint
themselves as being “good” German Americans who go around destroying “bad”
German Americans like me. In my defense, I stress that they all my ancestors
immigrated way back during the 1840s and 1850s, that my grandfather on my
father’s side fought the Germans during WWI, that my uncles on my mother’s side
fought the Germans during WWII, and that if he had not been 4-F, my father
would have fought the Germans during WWII. If DNA information had been
available back when I worked for the federal government, I would have stressed
that. According to http://dna.ancestry.com, my ancestry is 33% Europe West, 28%
Scandinavia, 24% Great Britain, 11% Ireland, 2% Europe East, 1%
Finland/Northwest Russia, and 1% Italy/Greece.)
