FROM ILLINOIS CENTER-LEFT LEANING SOURCES

ABC7

https://abc7chicago.com/university-of-chicago-protest-palestinian-israel/13946161/
— Democrats ask “Why are migrants coming to Chicago?” and acknowledge that “Asylum seekers in Texas are declaring Chicago as their desired city for resettlement.” Of course, migrants want to come to Chicago because of what Chicago is known for. Liberal Democrats run Chicago. Those liberal Democrats promote a) mass/illegal immigration, b) dependency on government and charity (free stuff), c) race and gender based preference giving, d) patronage, e) political affiliation discrimination, f) reverse discrimination, g) age discrimination, h) LGBTQ, i) abortion, j) booze, gambling, pot, and other vices, and k) abolition of the Second Amendment. Those liberal Democrats promote hated against Republicans who are conservative, White, male, older, non-poor, married, gun-owners, Christian, Protestant, Italian American, German American, and/or have ancestors who have been in America for a long time. Migrants want to come to Chicago because they want what liberal Chicago Democrats promote. My ancestors on my father’s side immigrated to Chicago in 1844, but they fled to Crete in 1854. I lived in downtown Chicago part-time 1974-1976 and full-time 1976-1978, but only because I got promoted to a job there. When my wife and I got married in 1978, we immediately fled to prosperous, safe, religious, conservative, and Republican Wheaton.

They stress that I was a union member for almost 12 years. They shout that I was grossly overpaid because of that. In today’s dollars, during those years, my salary increased from $18.05/hour to $104,583/year. In my defense, during those years, a) I earned a bachelor’s degree in management from NIU, b) I earned an MBA from Loyola, c) I passed the CPA examination on my first attempt, and d) I earned a master’s degree in accounting from DePaul.

— Overseas US military members to get pay cut…again? – Eric Utter
https://www.americanthinker.com/blog/2023/10/overseas_us_military_members_to_get_pay_cutagain.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The state of Illinois, for example, is providing up to $9,000 in rental assistance over a six-month period, including assistance with moving in and a starter kit to furnish the apartment. The Prairie State is funding temporary housing for “migrants,” including rented apartments and homes. Moreover, the city of Chicago has allocated an additional $4 million to assist migrants in obtaining temporary housing, to add to the $38 million contributed by the state. Perhaps if our military members serving overseas who’ve had their pay cut went AWOL and came across our southern border in the guise of illegal aliens, the Biden administration might fly them to the Land of Lincoln and set them up in a nice abode, partially furnished.)

FORBES
— Democrats say “How To Use Storytelling In Your MBA Applications.” In my 1971 Loyola MBA application, I stressed that I wanted to take graduate evening business courses to maintain and improve my job skills. I had just been hired by IRS and my employee manual encouraged me to take graduate business courses. Starting in 1972, I took and deducted one graduate evening business course at a time at Loyola and I earned an MBA from Loyola in 1976. But in 1978, my Democrat IRS superiors disallowed those 16 courses. They intentionally ignored what I had stated in my application. They argued that the courses a) did not maintain or improve my job skills, b) were not related to my job duties, c) were taken by me to get a job in the private sector, d) qualified me for a new trade or business, and e) were a distraction. I appealed to Tax Court and won. My Democrat IRS superiors would not have disallowed the courses if I had been a Democrat, minority, female, or veteran.

HUFFINGTON POST
— Democrats crow that “Mitt Romney Sure Insults A Lot Of His Fellow Republicans In New Biography.” I should write a book about those big-time Romney-promoters in Wheaton, Glen Ellyn, Milton Township, DuPage County, and Illinois who have taken and who continue to take the most/biggest adverse actions against me.

— Employee performance appraisal forms used by the federal government incentivize promoting Affirmative Action, Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion, that is, they incentivize promoting political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, and age discrimination.
