While I served as the chairman of TAPROOT Republicans of Illinois 2005-2012, I recruited many speakers for TAPROOT monthly meetings, annual picnic, and Christmas party. Of course, my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes a) viciously demonized, denigrated, and condemned those who accepted my invitations and b) hinted/implied/argued/shouted at them that that their speaking at TAPROOT events caused them to lose elections. I should write a book about the aforesaid.

Of course, my critics/opponents will hint/imply/argue/shout that if they, or if one of their operatives or dupes had been the Republican Precinct Committeeman, Erkenswick would have won.

— Democrats who run GAO say that the federal government wastes $247 billion tax dollars annually. GAO wasted my career and forced me to take their early retirement “offer” in 1997 when I was 49 years old. GAO audits IRS. They wasted what I had learned working for GAO for almost 18 years and for IRS for almost 9 years before that. They wasted what I had learned passing the Certified Internal Auditor examination in 1981 and the CPA examination in 1979. They wasted what I had learned earning a master’s degree in financial markets and trading from IIT in 1997, a master’s degree in accounting from DePaul in 1980, and an MBA from Loyola in 1976.

DUPAGE POLICY JOURNAL
— Republican Puchalski donates to Conroy (COMMENT: Your political donations say more about you than anything that you can say about yourself.)
https://dupagepolicyjournal.com/stories/641713218-republican-puchalski-donates-to-conroy
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Republican Donald Puchalski donated $500 to progressive Democratic DuPage County Board Chair Deb Conroy. Puchalski, of Addison, was a DuPage County Board member but lost in the fall 2022 election as an incumbent. He previously held a 1st District seat. The 68-year-old attorney had been a member of the DuPage County Board since 2005 when he was appointed to the public body. When running for re-election to the slot in 2022 he called for a need “to be conservative in spending” and suggested DuPage County keep “partisan politics off the board floor.” Puchalski’s former seat was from a traditionally conservative area of the county and included includes Bensenville, Wood Dale and parts of Elmhurst and Bloomingdale. His law firm, the Law Offices of Donald E. Puchalski focuses on immigration issues and domestic relations. He was previously a trustee for Addison Township, a member of the Addison Police Pension Board and a Republican precinct committeeman. “I think every government has to live within their means, and I think DuPage government has been very fiscally responsible and proactive,” Puchalski said when first appointed to the board in 2005. Puchalski and current GOP DuPage County Board member Sam Tornatore both donated to Conroy’s campaign at the same time after receiving financial support from GOP township organizations in Addison.)

— Anheuser-Busch accused of racist, discriminatory hiring policies under the ‘cloak of equity’ – Chris Donaldson (COMMENT: Democrat and RINO employers ever-increasingly use Affirmative Action, Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion to not hire Republicans and to get rid of their employees who are Republican.)
https://www.bizpacreview.com/2023/04/18/anheuser-busch-accused-of-racist-discriminatory-hiring-policies-under-the-cloak-of-equity-1350992/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The maker of Budweiser and Bud Light as well as a slew of other liquid libations is being sued by a conservative legal group over a program that ostensibly promotes diversity in hiring in terms of women and minorities but is discriminatory toward white and Asian Americans in pursuit of equity, a racially exclusionary ideology that is pervasive in modern day Corporate America. In the federal civil rights complaint filed by America First Legal, which was founded by former Trump adviser Stephen Miller, the group requests that “the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) open a civil rights investigation of Anheuser-Busch’s systemic and discriminatory hiring, promotion, and job-training employment practices,” according to a news release posted on its website. “Under the cloak of ‘equity,’ woke companies like Anheuser-Busch proudly discriminate based on race, color, national origin, and sex in their employment practices,” the statement reads. “For example, Anheuser-Busch created a Leadership Accelerator Program that provides ‘formal mentorship, executive interaction, and leadership development curriculum for those who identify with historically underrepresented groups as they join our organization in a full-time capacity.’ Only specific individuals of specified races, colors, and national origins – notably excluding White and Asian Americans – are invited to apply.”)

Why won’t they let Jessica Bates adopt? Because she, as a practicing Christian, refuses to submit to gay and transgender ideologies. Bates’s complaint is worth reading for anyone concerned about religious freedom. According to her complaint, Bates “initially progressed through the application process without any problems” until ideological insanity reared its ugly head.)

— When Race Trumps Merit: How the Pursuit of Equity Threatens Lives – HEATHER MAC DONALD
https://www.newsweek.com/when-race-trumps-merit-how-pursuit-equity-threatens-lives-opinion-1794872
(FROM THE ARTICLE: And so medical schools and medical societies are discarding traditional standards of merit in order to alter the demographic characteristics of their profession. As with all disparate impact analyses, that demolition of standards rests on an a priori truth: that there is no academic skills gap between whites and Asians, on the one hand, and blacks and Hispanics, on the other. Therefore, any test or evaluation on which blacks and Hispanics score worse than whites and Asians is biased and should be eliminated.)
— Democrats say “Bud Light Boycott Tears Republicans Apart.” I should write a book about those who continue to boycott me. I would focus on those who have taken the most/biggest adverse actions against me. I would focus on those who read my GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters for opposition research against me, against conservatives, against platform Republicans, and against all Republicans.

— Democrats a) ever-increasingly run education in America and b) increasingly admit that “America’s educational superpower is fading.” Ever-increasingly Democrat educators focus on cranking out good little democrats who are anti-heterosexual, anti-conservative, anti-Republican, anti-American, anti-White, anti-male, anti-older, anti-non-poor people, anti-those in traditional marriages, anti-gun-owners, anti-Christian, anti-Protestant, anti-Italian American, anti-German American, and anti-those ancestors have been in America for a long time.

ECONOMIST
— Artificial intelligence is reaching behind newspaper paywalls. Publishers long accused tech firms of profiting from their content. Now they have a point. (COMMENT: www.gopillinois.com has never been paywalled and it never will be. GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters have always been free and free of advertising and donation requests and they always will be. Of course, my critics/opponents have always been beyond furious about that. They have always been beyond furious that since 2000 that I have had the time, money, ability, experience, and motivation to put together and send out the newsletters free of charge and without any advertising or donation requests and to post copies of them on www.gopillinois.com .

— Can We Do Anything About America’s Decline? The remedies are agreed upon, but the needed medicine is feared more than the disease. Because today, the government is the cause of our many crises. – Victor Davis Hanson (COMMENT: My outstanding parents did not have enough money to send me to college. Neither of them attended college. My father was the first of my ancestors to earn a high school diploma. My mother never attended high school. While I was able to take college preparatory courses, to get an ACT score of 24, to get accepted by UIC, to work my way through college, and to earn a bachelor’s degree in management from NIU in 1970, my GPA suffered.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: Thus far, the tragic shooting in Dadeville appears to not involve an “angry white man,” which the left is quick to blame for mass shootings, though as I’ve reported, this is not the norm. We can expect the usual responses from the libs that guns, not criminals who use them to kill, are bad. The left will call for the end of “gun violence” even as big, blue cities refuse to punish the people causing so much chaos. It’s all a ruse to take your guns. Leftists will gladly sacrifice thousands of lives to disarm We the People.)

— Democrats say “Alarming rise in youth gun deaths breaks down very differently by race” and “A closer look at the numbers reveals even more alarming trends, especially among young African Americans.” What percent of African Americans are killed by African Americans?
https://www.nbcnews.com/meet-the-press/data-download/alarming-rise-youth-gun-deaths-breaks-differently-race-rcna79916
(FROM THE ARTICLE: And even more remarkable than the jump in gun deaths was the racial breakdown. In the 2021 data, the Pew Research Center found that Black children were hit much harder than other young people. Among African American children, the rate of gun deaths per 100,000 people was 11.8. That was more than five times the figure for other racial and ethnic groups. For white children and Hispanics, the figure was 2.3 per 100,000, and for Asian children, it was even lower, at 0.9. The difference in the 2021 numbers suggests a very different problem and challenge among Black children, which is confirmed when look at what drove gun deaths by race. For Black youths, the numbers were driven, heavily, by homicides. Among young African Americans, more than 8 in 10 gun deaths were homicides, while fewer than 10% were suicides. The numbers were flipped for white youths. Two-thirds of all gun deaths among that group were suicides, while fewer than a quarter were homicides. Such numbers may help explain why different lawmakers see the gun problem so differently.)

— What Makes a Great Internship—for Companies and Interns – Cheryl Winokur Munk (COMMENT: Were you an intern? GAO audits IRS. When I transferred from IRS to GAO in 1980 when I was 31 years old, my Democrat GAO superiors, supervisors, coworkers, and subordinates did not want me to transfer, but failing that, they wanted me to transfer as a GS-4 (currently $37,537/year) intern, that is, to suffer a $67,046/year (64%) pay cut in today’s dollars. They painted what GAO Analysts do as being a unique “trade or occupation.” They would not have done that if I had been a Democrat, minority, female, or veteran. They viciously demonized, denigrated, and condemned the fact a) that I had worked for IRS as a Revenue Officer for almost 9 years, the last 5 1/2 years of which at the GS-12 Step 1-5 levels, currently $92,279-$104,583/year, b) that much of what IRS Revenue Officers do is similar to what GAO Analysts do, c) that I had passed the CPA examination on my first attempt in 1979, d) that I had earned an MBA from Loyola in 1976, and e) that I had almost completed the requirements for a master’s degree in accounting from DePaul. They were furious a) that I suffered a pay cut of only $21,863/year (21%) in today’s dollars to transfer and b) that I transferred with me almost 12 years of federal seniority, 30 days of unused vacation days, and 130 unused sick days.)

BLOOMBERG
— Democrats say “DeSantis Hits Back With Ads Attacking ‘Gun Grabber’ Trump. Accuses Trump of Biden-Pelosi tactics on Social Security. Trump blasted GOP rival for backing higher retirement age.” The more that you attack Trump, the more that hate-filled Trump-hating Trump-haters promote you.

— Democrats say “Why Liberals Should Hope DeSantis Beats Trump. The phrase ‘lesser evil’ very much applies here.” Democrats want candidates to win Republican primaries who Democrats believe will be the easiest to defeat in general elections. I should write a book the success that Democrats have had doing that for offices on ballots in my precinct since 2000.

— Democrats acknowledge that “Loop shooting: 2 teens shot near Millennium Park as large crowds gather downtown.

I lived in an Outer Drive East condo next to Millennium Park 1974-1978. I worked for IRS in the Loop in 1971 and then 1973-1997. I took graduate evening business courses at Loyola 1972-1976 and walked to/from classes on Michigan Avenue sidewalks. I took graduate evening accounting courses at DePul 1976-1980 and walked to/from classes 1976-1978 through what is now Millennium Park.

That’s 13.6% of the US population, about the same as it was a century ago. But over the years, we’ve seen significant shifts in where immigrants to the US come from, and where they end up once they get here. . .Mexicans represent the largest group of immigrants living in the United States. That’s been true since 1980, according to the nonpartisan Migration Policy Institute. And the Mexico-US route is the largest migration corridor in the world. . .Looking only at the population of undocumented immigrants living in the United States, the list of the top countries of origin shifts slightly. A Department of Homeland Security report in 2021 estimated that the top six countries of origin for undocumented immigrants were Mexico, El Salvador, Guatemala, India, Honduras and China.)

CHICAGO SUN-TIMES
— Democrats say “As the NRA meets in gun-friendly Indiana, new Illinois and federal laws aim to restrict weapons sales. But the next step must involve strengthening gun laws from coast to coast.” Ever-increasingly, Democrats a) run America and b) blame Republicans for gun violence instead of those who use guns illegally. What are the demographics of those who use guns illegally? What are the demographics of their victims?

The so-called “swatting” incidents targeting schools have been a growing problem since last fall when schools in 14 states reported them.” Of course, Democrats use shooter threats to promote hatred against Republicans.

— Democrats say “Illinois conservatives question Democrats’ convention choice.” Who are the conservative leaders in your municipality, in your township, in your county, and in Illinois? I was the chairman of TAPROOT Republicans of Illinois 2005-2012. In 2012, hate-filled conservative-hating conservative-haters, their operatives, and their dupes succeeded in destroying TAPROOT. I should write a book about that.
https://www.chicagobusiness.com/greg-hinz-politics/illinois-conservatives-question-democrats-convention-choice
(FROM THE ARTICLE: In a statement, the Illinois General Assembly’s Freedom Caucus, which represents the Legislature’s most conservative members, questioned how the city can serve as the backdrop for a presidential candidate who has to run nationally. The seven-member group of state representatives focused on crime. “We would hope the Democrats coming to Chicago could learn a lesson about how not to govern but we are not holding our breath,” the caucus said in a statement. “The selection of Chicago, which just elected another soft-on-crime mayor, as the site for the 2024 Democratic National Convention speaks volumes about where the party is on the issue of crime.” The statement went on to praise, of all people, Bill Clinton, the last presidential candidate to be nominated at a Chicago convention, in 1996. “Democrats danced the Macarena at the convention as they celebrated the nomination of crime-fighter Bill Clinton, who made public safety the centerpiece of his 1996 campaign,” the caucus said. “When Democrats gather in Chicago in 2024, they will be facing the hard truth that Bill Clinton’s centrist policies no longer have the support of the majority of Democrats.” “New Democrat” Clinton, indeed, was more of a centrist than the current president, Joe Biden. But last time I checked, Republicans led by their conservative wing were busy trashing Clinton and his wife, 2016 Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton, as being tarnished and unfit to lead America. Neither Mayor Lori Lightfoot nor Gov. J.B. Pritzker had any immediate response to the statement.)

AMERICAN CONSERVATVE
— Think Twice Before Firing – John Hirschauer (COMMENT: My Democrat GAO superiors did not have to think twice before they forced me to take their early retirement “offer” in 1997 when I was 49 years old. They knew that I would sue and that I would lose. They knew that Democrats and RINOs controlled the courts. They knew that I had no “jury appeal” because my demographics were terrible: conservative, Republican, White, male, older, childless, draft-avoider, non-poor, gun-owner, Protestant, 100% German American, my ancestors had been in America since 1844, Crete resident 1948-1972, and Wheaton resident since 1978. They knew that my Republican U.S. Senators and my Republican U.S. Representatives would not come to my defense: They knew that with my losing in court, they could argue both a) that they discriminated against me because that was exactly what Congress wanted they to do with their employees who shared my demographics and/or b) that they never discriminated against me and that all the many adverse actions that they took against me were justified because I was an extremely “bad person.”)

Democrats and RINOs use Affirmative Action to get rid of Republicans. My Democrat superiors in the federal government used AA and up-or-out and budget cuts and my opposition to political affiliation, reverse discrimination, and age discrimination to take many adverse actions against me. My Democrat Post Office superiors disallowed my sick leave requests and forced me to resign in 1969. My Democrat IRS superiors disallowed my travel vouchers in 1974, never promoted me beyond GS-12, and disallowed my education deductions in 1978.

AMAC
— Exposing Biden’s Radical Government-Wide “Equity” Plans – B.C. Brutus (COMMENT: Ever-increasingly, Democrats use the federal government a) to take opportunities and money away from those who have demographics that vote for Republicans (heterosexual, conservative, White, male, older, non-poor, gun-owners, in traditional marriages, homeowners, Christian, Protestant, Italian American, German American, and/or those whose ancestors have been in America for a long time) and b) to give those opportunities and that money to those who have demographics that vote for Democrats (LGBTQ, liberal, minority, female, younger, poor, not in traditional marriages, renters, non-Christian, non-Protestant, non-Italian American, non-German American, and/or those whose ancestors have not been in America for a long time).)
https://amac.us/exposing-bidens-radical-government-wide-equity-plans/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Earlier this year, President Joe Biden signed another “racial equity” executive order mandating that every federal agency create a so-called “equity action plan” to “remove barriers for underserved communities.” Despite the benign-sounding language, however, the resulting “action plans” have made clear once again that the left’s “equity” agenda is antithetical to the principle of equality and effectively amounts to state-sponsored discrimination. In short, “promoting equity” is the left’s euphemism for using government or institutional power to manufacture equal outcomes across so-called “underrepresented communities.” Rather than creating equality of opportunity and allowing individuals to achieve success on their own merit, the “equity” doctrine says that everything from jobs to government benefits must be distributed in order to ensure everyone achieves the same outcome. If the concept sounds radical, that’s because it is – so radical, in fact, that even avowed “democratic-socialist” Senator Bernie Sanders voiced tacit opposition to it during an interview with liberal talk show host Bill Maher last month. Nonetheless, the Biden administration has been obsessed with equity since day one. Just hours after taking office, President Biden issued an executive order on “advancing racial equity and support for underserved communities through the federal government.” The order specifically mandates, “The head of each agency, or designee,” must “within 6 months of the date of this order… deliver a report to the President describing the best practices” to advance equity. In total, 92 agencies submitted such a report last year. While it went largely unnoticed by the media, the content of those reports was truly terrifying for Americans who believe that the government should not treat people differently based on race. Take, for example, the IRS’s report, which was released in October 2021. The document makes reference to “taxation equity,” raising the alarming possibility that the IRS – which just received funding for 87,000 new agents thanks to the “Inflation Reduction Act” – may soon move to make a person’s race, gender, or sexual orientation a determining factor in tax collection and enforcement. Current law does not allow the government to use demographic data from other government agencies in enforcement actions, but there are indications that the Biden IRS may move to change that. The Department of Transportation went a step further, promising to add “racial equity and barriers to opportunity as a consideration for awarding discretionary grants.” This plainly means that a grant applicant who is a person of color will be given preference over a white applicant purely because of their race. The Government Services Administration similarly pledged to “increase overall contract dollars awarded to underserved and disadvantaged communities.” The State Department equity plan specifically says that the agency will “prioritize engagements with diplomatic partners and individuals from underrepresented and underserved communities worldwide.” In other words, the Department admits it is conducting diplomacy in accordance with the left’s equity agenda, rather than to advance the best interests of the United States – a fact that should perhaps be unsurprising given the Biden administration’s numerous foreign policy fiascos. Amid mounting concerns about wokeness in the military driving down recruitment numbers, the Defense Department’s equity plan, released last April, emphasizes a “four-year strategic initiative” to promote equity “in the areas of recruitment and retention, promotion and development, and teaching and learning.” As yet more evidence of the disastrous consequences of implementing “equity” ideology through government actions, the Biden Department of Education equity plan touts the agency’s complete gutting of Title IX. The changes not only force radical gender ideology on the American public by hijacking the education system, they also reverses hard-won victories for women and girls by destroying female-only spaces and sports. Despite the path of destruction left in its wake, however, Biden was not content with just one equity executive order, and issued a second order on February 16 of this year. Although billions of taxpayer dollars had already been directed toward overhauling the entire federal bureaucracy in service of the left’s equity agenda, an effort that Biden describes as “embedding a focus on equity into the fabric of Federal policymaking,” the president insisted that it still was not enough. “Members of underserved communities still confront significant barriers to realizing the full promise of our great Nation,” the order says. Therefore, Biden orders agencies to create an equity action plan every year – a burdensome mandate that will lead to more wasted time and money. The new executive order also calls on every federal department to create an “agency equity team” that will “coordinate the implementation of equity initiatives and ensure that their respective agencies are delivering equitable outcomes for the American people.” In effect, these teams will act as “equity police” within government agencies, enforcing Biden’s equity mandate in order to advance the left’s mission of radical social transformation. The sprawling federal bureaucracy was largely ineffective and inefficient long before Joe Biden took office. Now, government agencies aren’t just incompetent, they’re actively working to dismantle core American values like equality – leading to disastrous outcomes for the taxpayers who fund those agencies in the process.)

— Ford Has High Hopes for Shedding Mustang’s Boomer Buyer Image – EILEEN FALKENBERG-HULL (COMMENT: I am a Boomer. I am 74 years old. I remember riding with one of my high school friends in his loaded red 1965 Mustang convertible that his father had bought him. Tuesday, I trading in my red 2016 Mustang V-6 for a new loaded red 2023 Mustang GT Premium coupe. SEE: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sCFj9lDyOAo I did that in part because the changes for the 2024 model do not motivate me.)
https://www.newsweek.com/ford-has-high-hopes-shedding-mustangs-boomer-buyer-image-1784686
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The Ford Mustang is a Boomer, but its maker is hoping that the latest iteration of the pony car will draw in buyers that weren’t alive when the car debuted. But, that doesn’t mean that the Ford team forgot about its core buyer database when developing the new, seventh-generation car. “We were able to take the heritage that is unmistakably Mustang, and bring it into the 21st century technology, performance, and appearance. The goals were to still not look backwards, but to stand on that foundation and look forward to bring it in. And, to bring it in in a way that would broaden the audience of Mustang,” Jim Owens, Ford’s Mustang marketing head told Newsweek. The average age of a new Mustang buyer is older than Ford would like it to be. The company is hoping to attract buyers who remember Fox Body design fondly from their childhoods, not those that were adults when those vehicles came to market. To appeal to younger generations, Ford locked into a completely new interior design for the 2024 Mustang, infusing more technology, with customization options available and gaming technology providing high-end graphics. The cockpit-like interior design positions the car’s screens toward the driver with the 12.4-inch digital instrument cluster able to blend almost seamlessly into the 13.2-inch infotainment touch screen. “If you think of the younger generations who personalize their technology… We brought that in authentically to Mustang so that owners can actually personalize their performance, their appearance, make it their Mustang through this technology,” Owens said. Owens doesn’t just work on Mustang. He is a customer, with fifth- and sixth-generation models in his family. He’s a self-proclaimed V8 guy who loves to hear the growl of an engine. “I’m gonna sit in those cars, I’m gonna start it up the minute I get in there,” he said. The new Mustang changed him. “We went into the studio and I sat there for 50 minutes, literally playing with the interior technology to make it my Mustang before I wanted to hit the start button. That is one of the key things that is taking that into that 21st century technology, if you will, in bringing out the audiences that are younger and Mustang lovers.” The addition of Android Auto, Apple CarPlay, Amazon Alexa and an available B&O sound system are designed to add to the youth appeal. The interior is the major talking point, but Owens is quick to point out that the exterior experience has been reimagined to appeal younger buyers too. Animated welcome lighting greets customers and when the door is opened, Mustang digital instrument cluster splash screens come to life. Remote Rev technology allows owners to rev their car’s engine from outside the vehicle, using the key fob. Though future autonomous cars are a sexy talking point, Owens believes that the Mustang buyer still wants the visceral drive experience the Ford offers, taking them away from the business world without leaving the technological world behind. “You know, it’s a vacation you take every day, right? You get in the car, you feel different at five o’clock or six o’clock whenever you leave work. This is a way to bring it to that younger audience that we’re extremely proud of,” he said.)

I had passed the CPA examination on my first attempt in 1979. I had worked for IRS for more than 9 years, the last 5 1/2 years of which at the GS-12 Step 1-5 Levels, currently $92,279-$104,583/yr. I had earned a master’s degree in accounting from DePaul in 1980. I had worked for GAO for 1 year. And I had passed the Certified Internal Auditor (CIA) examination on my first attempt in 1981. My Democrat GAO superiors were furious. None of my Democrat coworkers who were minority, female, and/or younger who they wanted to promote over me had anywhere near as many qualifications. So, to justify their not promoting me, a) they kept me off audits of IRS, b) they gave me bad job assignments, unfair performance expectations, and unfair performance appraisals, c) they turned my superiors, supervisors, coworkers, and subordinates against me, d) they assigned me to supervise their most problematic employees, and e) they wasted, ignored, dismissed, belittled, demonized, denigrated, and condemned what I had learned earning an MBA, passing the CPA examination, working for IRS, earning a master’s degree in accounting, working for GAO, and passing the CIA examination. I should write a book about the aforesaid.)

DUPAGE COUNTY
— Democrats say “DuPage County Seeks Resident Input on Proposed Precinct Maps.” How do these proposed changes impact your Republican Precinct Committeeman? I have been the Republican Milton Township Precinct 9 Committeeman since 1999. The new proposed precinct map puts me into a new Precinct 19. It has 1,033 registered voters while my current Precinct 9 has 497. The new eastern borders are Warrenville Road, Plamondon Road, and the Chicago Golf Club. The northern border remains Roosevelt Road. The new western borders are Crest Street, Aurora Way, Foothill Drive, and Orchard Road. The new southern borders are Weisbrook Road and Flint Creek Road. The new Precinct 19 a) takes away my voters east of Warrenville Road who were added to my Precinct 9 in 2015, b) gives back the voters west of the Prairie Path who were taken away in 2015, and c) adds voters from the current Precincts 85 (Sarah Stark) and 130 (Elizabeth Tatro). In 2015, I lost the relationships that I had built since 1999 with about 250 voters west of the Prairie Path. With this proposal, I would lose the relationships that I had built since 2015 with about 250 voters east of Warrenville Road.

https://www.illinoisreview.com/illinoisreview/2023/04/opinion-the-one-issue-that-cannot-even-be-discussed.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: For it to have been an honest election – for Joe Biden to have really beaten Donald Trump 81 million to 74 million – the national participation number would have had to increase by over 22 million legitimate voters between 2016 and 2020. That’s their claim – that about 158.5 million people voted for president in 2020, even though only about 136.6 million are recorded as having voted in 2016, and 2016 was already a high. There is always a sway of a few million in the total from cycle to cycle. Sometimes it goes down a bit, sometimes it goes up a bit. The prior four presidential elections had seen 122 million, 131 million, 129 million, and then 136 million in 2016. But the total participation necessary for Joe Biden to have gotten 81 million votes in 2020 (when Donald Trump got 74 million) is 158.5 million (once you count the many votes for third parties and write-ins). And that is absolutely, statistically impossible.)

— We’re Failing Our Boys and Young Men – Jeff Szymanski (COMMENT: In your school district, how far are boys behind girls at each grade level? Why is that? I was born in 1948. If I had been born later, because of my terrible demographics (White, male, Protestant, 100% German American, and my ancestors have been in America since 1844), and because of Affirmative Action, Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion, that is, because of political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, and age discrimination, I doubt that would have found the motivation to take college preparatory courses in high school, pass the postal employment examination, graduate in the upper 20% of my class, get an ACT score of 24, work my way through college, pass the Federal Service Entrance examination, earn an MBA, pass the CPA examination, pass the Certified Internal Auditor examination, become a licensed CPA, etc.)
https://amac.us/were-failing-our-boys-and-young-men/
(FROM THE ARTICE: Facts. Girls are half a grade level or better above boys in all 50 states. Seven in 10 high school valedictorians are girls. College graduates are soon to be 2:1 women to men. Women with a college degree do not like to marry men without one. Single women are far more likely to own their own home, and they are far less likely to commit suicide. If you’re a young male in America today, particularly one without any higher education or job training, the statistics are increasingly grim. I reside in Central Florida. Retirement communities are numerous but no major colleges within an hour’s drive. Low wage service sector work, construction, and landscaping are the primary options for young men. COVID lockdowns and paying people not to work encouraged sloth nationwide. Some men never went back to gainful employment. There’s a growing population “unemployable” to a company and “unviable” to a partner. An arrest record. Tattoos on the face. A lack of meaningful work history. Too many young men are permanently closing doors to success. Small wonder that crime and drugs fill the void. There’s scarcely a traffic stop in the area where methamphetamine is not found in the vehicle. And the triple homicide by three male teenagers that made headlines last week took place just miles from here. But we’ve heard for decades and continue hearing that men have all the advantages. Who would dare utter that young men are in crisis? Who would further dare take up the cause to do something about it given how The Left might react?)

MCHENRY COUNTY BLOG
— GOP State Chairman Don Tracy’s Advice to Bond County Lincoln Dinner Attendees (COMMENT: Concerning #4 below, ever-increasingly, to get votes from moderates and from liberals, the Illinois Republican Party (IRP) paints itself as being “Democrat-lite” and dumps conservatives. Concerning #5 below, ever-increasingly, to get votes from moderates and from liberals, the IRP paints itself as being “Democrat-lite” and dumps the individual responsibility, traditional marriage/family, right to life, immigration, illegal drugs, and equal opportunity (no race or gender based preference giving) planks in the Republican Party platform. Concerning #6 and #7 below, ever-increasingly, to get votes from moderates and from liberals, the IRP paints itself as being “Democrat-lite” and attacks and destroys conservatives. Concerning #10 below, I spend 10+ hours each and every day putting GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters together and sending them out. I should write a book about those anti-conservative and conservative-hating IRP, DuPage County Republican Central Committee, and Milton Township Republican Organization leaders who have done the most since 2000 a) to stop me from putting those newsletters together and sending them out and b) to stop everyone from reading those newsletters. I would focus on those leaders who have taken the most/biggest adverse actions against me.)
https://mchenrycountyblog.com/2023/04/10/gop-state-chairman-don-tracys-advice-to-bond-county-lincoln-dinner-attendees/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: 1. Republicans cannot govern Illinois without winning statewide. 2. Republicans cannot win statewide without winning the Chicago suburbs. [70% of Illinois voters live within eyesight of Willis Tower.] 3. We cannot win the suburbs without winning over swing voters. [Only 33% of Illinois voters are Republicans; 47% are Democrats; 20% are swing voters.] 4. Winning politics is about addition not subtraction. 5. The perfect is the enemy of the good, which is why someone who agrees with you 80% of the time is an ally not an enemy. 6. We cannot defeat our common foe – the Democrat socialists – unless we avoid attacking each other and unite to work together collectively. 7. Calling fellow Republicans names like RINOs, Never Trumpers, right-wingers,
extremists or ultra MAGAs violates the 11th Commandment and will not influence or persuade swing voters and their friends and families to vote Republican in the general election. [Democrats don’t call other Democrats DINOs, etc.] 8. With socialism on the march, good government can no longer be taken for granted; and we cannot defeat the socialists from the sidelines or by hoping someone else will do that for us. 9. Politics is a team sport. If you are not already in the game, get off the sidelines and help the Republican Party and our good candidates. 10. If you have time but no money, we need your time. If you have money but no time, we need your money. If you have neither time nor money, we need your prayers.)

THE HILL
— Democrats say “Trump discourages DeSantis, says candidacy would ‘only hurt’ Republican Party.” I should write a book about what the anti-conservative and conservative-hating leaders of the Milton Township Republican Organization (MTRO), DuPage County Republican Central Committee, and Illinois Republican Party did to me to defeat me when I ran for its open MTRO Treasurer position in 2004. They blamed me and blamed my GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters for Jim Ryan’s defeat in 2002. They hated TAPROOT Republicans of Illinois and hated the Illinois Center Right Coalition and the leadership roles that I held in those organizations. Because I would have started MTRO to use budgets if I was elected, they brought in two CPAs to speak against budgeting. They said that I irritated everyone around me and that I was not a team player. I lost 69 to 13.
