— FRONT PAGE WITH PICTURE: Pro-Trump group tests officials’ patience with public testimony, triggers legal tangles
https://www.chicagotribune.com/2026/05/04/pro-trump-group-public-testimony-legal-tangles/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Cook County Commissioner Tara Stamps declared after a recent meeting that she’d had enough. Jessica Jackson, a member of the group Chicago Flips Red, had taken to the podium that March morning during public comment in front of the county’s Finance Committee. Jackson didn’t address any agenda items, instead hitting what for her is a common refrain: that the county had spent too much on immigrants at the expense of other quality of life improvements.)

GOPUSA ILLINOIS
— What is your disapproval rating with your critics/opponents? Based on the many big adverse actions that the following have taken against me since 2000, my disapproval rating with them is very high: a) leaders of the Illinois Republican Party (IRP), DuPage County Republican Central Committee, and Milton Township Republican Organization (MTRO), b) Republican leaders of Illinois, DuPage County, Milton Township, and Wheaton, c) Republican candidates on ballots in my precinct, d) major Republican donors, e) conservative leaders, and f) religious leaders. Adverse actions that the aforesaid have had their operatives and their dupes take against me include a) throwing me off the IRP State Convention Platform and Resolutions Committee in 2024, b) ending my service as the Republican fundraiser for Wheaton Independence Day parades and fireworks in 2021, c) gerrymandering my precinct in 2015, d) ending my service as the TAPROOT Republicans of Illinois chairman in 2012, e) ending my service as the MTRO webmaster in 2010 and 2004, f) ending my service as an Illinois Center Right Coalition (ICRC) Steering Committee member in 2007, g) almost getting ICRC to censure me for my GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters in 2006, h) defeating my bid to serve as MTRO Treasurer in 2004, and i) getting a registered Republican voter in my precinct to run against me for Republican Precinct Committeeman in 2000. – Dave Diersen
www.gopillinois.com
— What drives up your disapproval rating with your critics/opponents? For me, it is my promotion of conservative principles and planks in the Republican Party platform that they reject, especially its personal responsibility, traditional marriage and family, right to life, immigration, anti-vice, Second Amendment, and equal opportunity (no race or gender based preference giving) planks. For me, it is my refusal to be manipulated/dominated by my critics/opponents, my refusal to glorify and praise them, my refusal to pander to them, my refusal to serve as one of their operatives or dupes, my refusal to cover up their wrong doing, and I refusal to give them money. – Dave Diersen
www.gopillinois.com
— How old are you? The more of the following that you are, the sooner that you should anticipate/expect that you will be forced to retire early: conservative, Republican, American, White, male, non-veteran, Protestant, German American, and/or have ancestors who have been in America for a long time. Democrat and RINO leaders ever-increasingly replace those who are the aforesaid with those who are liberal/moderate, Democrat, RINO, noncitizen, minority, female, veteran, non-Protestant, non-German American, and/or have ancestors who have not been in America for a long time. – Dave Diersen
www.gopillinois.com
— Are/were you in the private sector or the public sector? I was in the public sector. According to my critics/opponents, if I had been in the private sector, my ending salary would have been much less than $154,682/year in today’s dollars. I my defense, I earned a) three job-related master’s degrees, six job-related professional certifications, and a job-related professional license. In my defense, my Democrat superiors did everything that they could to waste my career and to get rid of me. – Dave Diersen
www.gopillinois.com
— I have watched DuPage County Republican elected officials closely ever since I moved to DuPage County when I was 29 in 1978. To get votes from the Democrats who have ever-increasingly moved in, they have ever-increasingly welcomed them with open arms and painted themselves as being Democrat Lite. To get votes from Democrats, they have ever-increasingly given more preference to those who are liberal/moderate, minority, female, younger, unmarried, poor, non-Protestant, non-German American, and/or those whose ancestors have not been in America for a long time. To get votes from Democrats, they have ever-increasingly dumped the personal responsibility, traditional marriage and family, right to life, immigration, anti-vice, Second Amendment, and equal opportunity planks in the Republican Party platform. To get votes from Democrats, they have ever-increasingly dumped conservatives like me. – Dave Diersen
www.gopillinois.com
— What do you anticipate/expect that your critics/opponents will do sooner or later? I anticipate/expect that sooner or later, my critics/opponents will cast Democrat primary ballots, that is, that they will officially declare that they always really have been Democrats. I anticipate expect that those who have had their operatives and their dupes take the most/biggest adverse actions against me will cast Democrat primary ballots sooner rather than later. Exceptions will be those who want to keep their Republican offices to further destroy Republicans. – Dave Diersen

— Marriage is what really matters. DD: Democrat leaders ever-increasingly promote LGBTQ, that is, they ever-increasingly destroy traditional marriage and family.
https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/opinion/4533807/what-really-matters-is-marriage/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: America’s cultural foundations are cracking. Marriage has been redefined and weakened, the family cast aside as outdated, and traditional ideas of manhood attacked as toxic. The result is a nation of lonely, disconnected individuals — unhappier, less stable, and increasingly unable to sustain the free institutions that made America exceptional.)

— E.E.O.C. Investigating Discrimination Claim at The New York Times. The Equal Employment Opportunity Commission recently referred a reverse-discrimination complaint by an employee to the agency’s legal unit for review. DD: How has EEOC impacted you? EEOC had a tremendous impact on me. When I was 22 in 1971, I accepted a job offer from Oldsmobile. But Oldsmobile withdrew that job offer because it had just agreed to stop hiring Whites to settle an EEOC complaint. Because I had accepted that offer, my Firestone Store boss rudely fired me. Because of that, I accepted a job offer from IRS.

— Graduates Reset Ambitions in Pursuit of First Jobs. DD: WHAT Harmed you job search? When I graduated from NIU with a bachelor’s degree in management when I was 21 in 1970, I applied to many fortune 500 firms. Only Firestone Stores offered me a job, and it was for a job that did not really require a college degree. In the name of “training,” my boss used me like I was a car mechanic trainee. All the firms that I applied to were under tremendous pressure from EEOC to hire minorities, females, and veterans. I was not a minority, female, or veteran. To make matters worse, potential employers saw me as being Vietnam War draft bait. They did not believe that my financial hardship draft deferment application would be approved. Beyond that, my GPA was not that great because to work my way through college, I had spent far too many hours delivering mail instead of studying.

— The Path to Student Loan Forgiveness Is Narrowing. DD: What percent of those who took out student loans never expected or intended to pay them back? No one viewed me as being college material.

So I worked my way through college and graduated debt-free with a bachelor’s degree in business from NIU when I was 21 in 1970. My paying back the loans that I took out to buy a new 1972 Corvette in 1971, a new townhome in 1972, and condos in 1974 and 1976 shows that I would have paid back a student loan if I had gotten one. If I had gotten a student loan, my GPA would have been higher because I spent far too many hours working instead of studying. If I had a higher GPA, I could have gotten better paying jobs.

https://www.chicagotribune.com/2026/04/30/opinion-university-of-illinois-college-admissions/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Just applying to college has become increasingly expensive. Students hoping to strengthen their competitiveness with Advanced Placement exams and additional ACT attempts can quickly rack up hundreds of dollars in fees. Add application costs, and families can easily spend $600 or more on the process. With tutoring, costs can climb even higher. Many families earn too much for financial assistance and still struggle to cover these costs. For Illinoisans navigating this process, even modest help matters. The federal program could cover public school students, unlocking a new way to fund these costs. Support from scholarship-granting organizations could cover the extra steps students now need to distinguish themselves in the competitive college admissions environment. My sister learned the hard way that even high-achieving students struggle to stand out. I graduated from U. of I., but my sister was rejected with a higher test score and stronger extracurriculars than mine. My family didn’t have resources for extra test prep or tutoring. I was lucky to be admitted then, and I might not have been so today.)

WASHINGTON POST
— GAO agrees to review Justice Department’s handling of Epstein files. The review by the Government Accountability Office, an independent agency that is part of the legislative branch, will look into how the department released the files. DD: Democrats run GAO. Enough said.
https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2026/04/28/epstein-files-gao/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The Government Accountability Office plans to examine the Justice Department’s handling of files related to Jeffrey Epstein after a bipartisan group of senators raised concerns that the department violated the law. The Justice Department has released millions of pages of documents related to the late convicted sex offender since President Donald Trump signed a law in November requiring the department to make the records public with narrow restrictions. But Democrats and some Republicans in Congress questioned whether the Justice Department released all the required files and have criticized officials for not redacting some victims’ names and for redacting the names of some Epstein associates. Sens. Jeff Merkley (D-Oregon), Lisa Murkowski (R-Alaska), Ben Ray Luján (D-New Mexico) and Dick Durbin (D-Illinois) last month asked the GAO — an independent agency that is part of the legislative branch — to look into how the department reviewed the files “and the resulting failure of the Department to follow the law, respond to Congress and protect victims.” Merkley said Tuesday that the GAO has agreed to do so. “This independent investigation is an important step in holding this Administration accountable for siding with the rich and powerful to help cover up the abuse of our most vulnerable,” Merkley said in a statement. “I’ll keep fighting to use all the tools at my disposal to deliver justice for Epstein’s victims and transparency for the American people.” The GAO is the second agency to agree to examine the Justice Department’s handling of the Epstein files and compliance with the law. The Justice Department inspector general’s office said last week that it would audit how the department identified, redacted and released the Epstein records after Merkley, Murkowski, Durbin and other senators asked the inspector general to do so. The GAO told Merkley in a letter that it will coordinate with the inspector general’s office to ensure that the two agencies do not duplicate each other’s efforts. Epstein, a well-connected financier who pleaded guilty in 2008 to charges of soliciting prostitution and died in federal custody while awaiting trial on federal sex trafficking charges in 2019, faced multiple investigations during his lifetime over his relationships with young women. His longtime companion, Ghislaine Maxwell, was convicted on sex trafficking charges and is serving a 20-year prison sentence in Texas. Since Epstein’s death, which was later ruled a suicide, conspiracy theorists have speculated without evidence that federal officials have worked to protect powerful friends who may have participated in his crimes. The Epstein files consumed months of Trump’s presidency, with Attorney General Pam Bondi testifying twice on Capitol Hill about the release of the files before Trump ousted her this month. At a news conference in January, Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche said the department identified about 6 million documents related to Epstein but withheld roughly half of them because they were deemed to fall under exceptions in the law or to be duplicates of files it had already released. “I can assure that we complied with the statute, we complied with the [law], and we did not protect President Trump,” Blanche said. “We didn’t protect or not protect anybody,” he added, dismissing the ongoing debate as “a thirst for information that I do not think will be satisfied by the review of these documents.” Trump had a long-standing friendship with Epstein, and the two had a falling out in the mid-2000s. Trump has not been accused of participating in Epstein’s criminal conduct. Blanche, now the acting attorney general, has signaled a desire to move on from the Epstein case. “To the extent that the Epstein files was a part of the past year of this Justice Department, it should not be a part of anything going forward,” Blanche said on Fox News after Bondi’s ouster.)
