POLITICO ILLINOIS
— Don Tracy considers governor bid
https://www.politico.com/newsletters/illinois-playbook/2025/07/29/don-tracy-considers-governor-bid-00480953
(FROM THE ARTICLE: 2026 INTRIGUE: A familiar Republican name is eyeing the 2026 governor’s race. Don Tracy, the former chair of the Illinois Republican Party, confirmed to Lee Enterprises’ Brenden Moore that he is actively considering a bid for the state’s top job. “I’m taking a hard look at it,” Tracy told Moore, noting he’s been “making some calls” and that “several people” have urged him to throw his hat into the ring. The potential candidacy comes at a time when the Illinois GOP is in a prolonged wilderness stretch, failing to win a statewide race in nearly a decade. Tracy may be the Republican to change that. He’s a Springfield attorney and businessman with ties to the party’s donor class. And though he stepped down as chair last year, Tracy’s name still carries weight in Republican circles. It wouldn’t be easy. Incumbent Democratic Gov. JB Pritzker, a billionaire with virtually unlimited resources and a finely tuned political operation, announced in June that he will seek a third term. The governor has already signaled an aggressive campaign that focuses on attacking extremism. . .State Sen. Sue Rezin, who serves as deputy Republican leader, is returning to the trail. “After a lot of thought and discussions, I have decided to run for reelection to protect taxpayers’ pocketbooks, strengthen public safety and keep and grow good-paying jobs right here at home in the 38th Senate District,” she said in a statement. Rezin has been serving in the General Assembly since 2010.)

All during the almost 30 years that I worked for the federal government, extremely few of my superiors, supervisors, coworkers, and subordinates were Protestants. Overwhelmingly, they were Catholic or Jewish. None that I know of were Missouri Synod Lutherans like me.

SIMPLY PSYCHOLOGY
— A meritocratic society allows those from lower socioeconomic status to aspire to a higher social class, status, and place in the hierarchy. Meritocracy enabled me to earn a bachelor’s degree, three master’s degrees, six professional certifications, and a professional license even though a) neither of my parents attended college, b) my father was only the first of my ancestors to earn a high school diploma, c) he never earned more than $50,000/year in today’s dollars, d)my mother never attended high school, and e) I had to work my way through college. My critics/opponents vehemently disagree. According to them, I was able to accomplish the aforesaid because I benefitted tremendously from discrimination against those who share their demographics: liberal, Democrat, RINO, minority, female, younger, veteran, non-Protestant, non-German American, and/or have ancestors who have not been in America for a long time. I should write about my critics/opponents. I would focus those whose parents had lots of money.

I transferred from IRS to GAO when I was 31 years old in 1980. Steinhoff had no interest in me even though a) I had worked for IRS for almost 9 years, the last 5 1/2 years of which at the GS-12 Step 1-5 Levels, currently $99,069-$112,280/year, b) I had earned an MBA in 1976, c) I had passed the CPA examination on my first attempt in 1979, and d) I had almost completed the requirements for a master’s degree in accounting. I completed those requirements in 1980 and I subsequently earned a master’s degree in financial markets and trading in 1997.

— See the articles below concerning Trump making Matthew Lohmeier an Air Force Under Secretary. Like Lohmeie, I fought Affirmative Action (AA) and DEI in the federal government. Since the 1960s, the Democrats who run the federal government have used AA and DEI to make the federal government a hostile work environment for Republicans, to waste the careers of Republicans, and to get rid of Republicans. If Republican Presidents, U.S. Senators, and U.S. Representatives had stopped AA and DEI in the federal government, my Democrat GAO superiors would not have been able to a) force me to retire when I was 49 years old in 1997, b) always rank me in the bottom half of my coworkers for pay-for-performance, c) delay my promotions and never promote me beyond GS-13, d) keep me off audits of IRS except for 3 of the almost 18 years that I worked for GAO, and e) force me to take a $23,472/year (21%) pay cut in today’s dollars to transfer from IRS to GAO in 1980. Further, my Democrat IRS superiors would not have been able to a) never promote me beyond GS-12, b) disallow my education deductions, and c) disallow my travel vouchers. Further, my Democrat Post Office superiors would not have been able to a) force me to resign and b) disallow my sick leave requests.

— Virtually all, if not all, GAO employees are Democrats. GAO falsely claims to be non-partisan. I should write a book about that. I would use how the Democrats who run GAO treated me as an example. If I had been a Democrat, they would not have forced me to take a $23,472/year (21%) pay cut in today’s dollars to transfer from IRS to GAO in 1980. They would not have kept me off audits of IRS except for 3 of the almost 18 years that I worked for GAO. They would not have delayed my promotions and never promoted me beyond GS-13. They would not have always ranked me in the bottom half of my coworkers for pay-for-performance. They would not have forced me to retire when I was 49 years old in 1997. They would not have wasted what I learned working for IRS for almost 9 years, the last 5 1/2 years of which at the GS-12 Step 1-5 Levels, currently $99,069-$112,280/year. They would not have wasted what I learned earning master’s degrees in business, accounting, and finance. They would not have wasted what I learned earning professional certifications in accounting, internal auditing, fraud examination, government financial management, financial services auditing, and forensic accounting. They would not have wasted what I learned to become a licensed CPA.

CHICAGO TRIBUNE
— Getting retroactive Social Security benefit payments. Because of the repeal of GPO and WEP, my Social Security increased from about $3,000/year to about $6,000/year. Also, I got about $3,200 in backpay. Further, because the repeal, I am now eligible to claim 50% of my wife’s Social Security, but I will only get 43% because I took Social Security when I was 62.
https://tribunecontentagency.com/article/the-savings-game-getting-retroactive-social-security-benefit-payments/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Q. I receive a significant pension from work I have done outside of Social Security. I have not worked enough hours under Social Security to receive a benefit based on my work record. My spouse is retired and receives a generous Social Security benefit. A few years ago, I contacted Social Security and asked if I was eligible for a spousal benefit. I was informed that because two-thirds of my pension exceeded the spousal benefit I would otherwise be entitled to, that I shouldn’t even apply for a spousal benefit because of the regulations related to the Government Pension Offset (GPO). So I did not apply. When the Windfall Elimination Provision (WEP) and GPO were repealed at the end of 2024, I filed for a spousal benefit because I was told that the two-thirds reduction was no longer in effect. After I applied, I was told that because I never applied for a spousal benefit prior to the repeal of GPO, I was not eligible for retroactive payments. I am now receiving a spousal benefit, but why am I not entitled to retroactive payments? A: More than one reader has written to complain about this situation. There is no logical reason why you should not be entitled to retroactive benefit payments. Many individuals who are now receiving a spousal benefit for the first time because of the repeal of GPO also receive six months of retroactive benefit payments.)

https://www.dailyherald.com/20250726/news/illinois-adding-more-electric-vehicles-than-ever-before-but-not-enough-to-meet-goal-of-1-million-by/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: However, according to figures recently released by Illinois Secretary of State Alexi Giannoulias, there are still less than 150,000 EVs registered statewide, well below the state’s targeted goal of 1 million by 2030. Infrastructure issues also make that goal difficult to reach though, many experts contend. . .However, according to figures recently released by Illinois Secretary of State Alexi Giannoulias, there are still less than 150,000 EVs registered statewide, well below the state’s targeted goal of 1 million by 2030. Infrastructure issues also make that goal difficult to reach though, many experts contend. . .As part of President Donald Trump’s “One Big Beautiful Bill Act,” a $7,500 tax credit for the purchase of a new electric vehicle ends Sept. 30. The $4,000 tax credit for purchasing a used electric vehicle is going away as well. . .Walton said the goal of rebates was to help lower prices for electric vehicles, which has occurred. New entry-level EVs run about $30,000, he said. The average price for any new car in the U.S. is about $50,000. Illinois charges electric vehicle owners an additional $100 per vehicle as part of the annual registration fees. The fee is intended to cover the loss of motor fuel tax revenues that go to pay for road construction and repairs statewide.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: When it comes to government, there are few things more unattractive than nakedly partisan power politics, as reflected by a ruthless process called gerrymandering. Too many people don’t understand the concept, but it’s as simple as it is basic. Gerrymandering is the drawing of legislative district boundary lines — both state and federal — to give one political party an advantage over the other on Election Day. The typical tactics used are called “packing” — diluting the minority party’s strength by placing most of its voters into a few select districts — and “cracking” — splitting up a geographically compact group across multiple districts in order to reduce their electoral influence. Presto, chango, legislative elections are won and lost before a single vote has been cast. In Illinois, Democrats have gerrymandered state and federal districts to give themselves a super-majority in the state House and Senate and 14 of 17 seats in the U.S. House of Representatives.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: As the Texas Legislature plans to redraw congressional maps in an effort to increase Republican members in the U.S. House, the governors of California and Illinois may devise their own new borders. . .As the most populous state in the nation, California has 43 Democratic members of the house and nine Republican members, while Illinois is represented by 14 Democrats and three Republicans. “Everything is on the table,” Pritzker said. The Illinois governor said he doesn’t want to redraw the maps but “if they’re going to take this drastic action, then we might also take drastic action to respond.” “We want the country to understand [that] what’s going on in Texas is a national battle,” State Rep. Richard Pena Raymond, a Democrat from Laredo, said. Raymond told Pritzker that redistricting is “clearly aimed at affecting the entire country.” Responsibility for determining Congressional district maps differs from state to state. In California, an independent commission approved by voters in 2010 works on the maps. Illinois maps, on the other hand, are put together by the state lawmakers have been drawn strongly to favor the Democrat Party in the state.)

In today’s dollars, my salary was $19.37/hour 1966-1967, $20,02/hour 1967-1968, and $20.67/hour 1968-1969. I earned Social Security credits and full-time Civil Service Retirement System credits 1966-1969. My critics/opponents have always been furious about the aforesaid.

— Is Decapitation a Job Americans Won’t Do?
https://prescottenews.com/2025/07/27/opinion-is-decapitation-a-job-americans-wont-do-ann-coulter/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Oh look, another American’s been beheaded by a Mexican. This week’s beheader is Jose Luis Mendoza-Gonzalez, an illegal alien who, according to the Department of Homeland Security, decapitated 37-year-old Megan Bos, then stashed her body in a bleach storage container. Arrested for the crime in April, Mendoza-Gonzalez was promptly released from custody by Illinois judge Randie Bruno, who is the same physical type — chubby, short-haired, white woman — as the Milwaukee judge charged with helping an illegal sneak out of her courtroom to avoid ICE agents. Illinois: sanctuary state for Mexican decapitators. Because they’re not busy enough rounding up the 20 million pillars of society Joe Biden allowed to sneak into America, Immigration and Customs Enforcement had to devote time and resources this week to recapturing Mendoza-Gonzalez. Otherwise, you never would have heard about it, and liberals could keep pretending not to know that Mexican drug cartels decapitate people.)

BURR RIDGE PATCH
— Burr Ridge Mayor Gary Grasso, an attorney, has announced he would run as a Republican for chairman of the DuPage County Board. Republican candidates increasingly lose elections in DuPage County because Democrats increasingly move into DuPage County to take advantage of the prosperity and safety that Republicans created there.
https://patch.com/illinois/burrridge/burr-ridge-mayor-seeks-higher-office
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The current chairman is Democrat Deb Conroy, who is in her first term. He served on the county board from 2012 to 2018. He has been mayor twice – 2005 to 2012 and since 2019. Historically, Republicans have controlled DuPage’s government. However, that has changed in recent years as Democrats have become more popular in suburbs across the country. In his statement, Grasso described himself as “socially moderate.” But Grasso may have trouble attracting the party’s MAGA wing. In 2022, Grasso lost the Republican race for Congress to MAGA enthusiast Keith Pekau, then Orland Park’s mayor, who went on to lose to Democratic incumbent Sean Casten. In his announcement, Grasso said Burr Ridge was the first to receive busloads of migrants from Chicago without notice or information about them. He said Burr Ridge welcomed the migrants while assuring the community that all were respecting the law. He said he would protect law-abiding, taxpaying immigrants who want to become citizens. But he said he would never offer sanctuary to undocumented immigrants who commit violent or serious crimes. Grasso also promoted his handling of the pandemic. He said he worked with the Village Board to provide stipends to small businesses to pay rents and salaries. He also said he found money to erect tents for restaurants rather than follow an “ill-advised” order to close them. Grasso said he was proud that Burr Ridge did not close or lose one business to COVID. “This is one of several reasons why the Village of Burr Ridge is debt-free today,” the mayor said. In his statement, Grasso noted he was chairman of the county’s 911 board. In that post, he said he led the consolidation of the county’s 21 call centers to two. He announced his Republican candidacy on his Facebook page titled, “Gary Grasso – Mayor of Burr Ridge” and labeled “Public & Government Service.” The Democratic and Republican primaries are March 17.)

— Just like their flock, Catholic priests are deeply divided politically, based on their campaign contributions. The Chicago Sun-Times found that more than 70 Catholic clerics in Illinois collectively gave over $50,000 to political campaigns since 2021. The money was almost evenly split between Democrats and Republicans, with President Donald Trump and his 2024 rival Kamala Harris both recipients. The Democrat Party platform is extremely anti-religious.

CRAIN’S CHICAG BUSINESS
— Chicago Tribune begins newsroom layoffs in wake of failed buyouts. My Democrat GAO superiors always wanted to get rid of me and my coworkers who shared my demographics. In 1993, when I was 45 years old, they “offered” those like me who had 25 or more years of federal service a $25,000 buyout if we retired early. They succeeded in forcing me to retire 4 years later just before their “offer” expired. I would not have been eligible for regular retirement for another 6 years. Beyond the tremendous negative financial impact of being forced to retire early, it gives your critics/opponents something very big to use against you. They will hint/imply/argue/shout that the real reason why you were forced to retire early is that you are a bad person. Further, the more qualifications that you have, the more that they will hint/imply/argue/shout that the real reason why you were forced to retire early is that you are a bad person. When my Democrat GAO superiors forced me to retire, I had three job-related master’s degrees, six job-related professional certifications, and a job-related professional license.

STATE OF ILLINOIS
— Illinois Reinforces Commitment to Pay Transparency and Equity. My Democrat superiors in the federal government were always proud to report that they paid their Democrat employees more than they paid their Republican employees including me. They especially paid my Democrat coworkers more who were minority, female, veteran, and/or younger. They were especially proud to report that they forced me to take a $23,472/year (21%) pay cut in today’s dollars to transfer from IRS to GAO when I was 31 years old in 1997. If I had been a Democrat, minority, female, veteran, and/or younger, they would transferred me in as a GS-13, currently $117.807/year. Because I am a Republican, they did not assign me to audits of IRS and promote me to GS-13 until I was 38 years old in 1986. It is called political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, and age discrimination. GAO audits IRS. I had worked IRS for almost 9 years, the last 5 1/2 years of which at the GS-12 Step 1-5 Levels, currently $99,069-$112,280/year. I had earned an MBA from Loyola in 1976. I had passed the CPA examination on my first attempt in 1979. I had almost completed the requirements for a master’s degree in accounting from DePaul. All my coworkers who my Democrat IRS and GAO superiors promoted over me were Democrats a) who were minority, female, veteran, and/or younger and/or b) had less work experience than I had, had less education than I had, had no professional certifications or fewer than I had, and/or had no professional license like the one I had.

They replaced me with my Democrat Black subordinate when I was 49 years old in 1997. He had less job-related work experience than I had. He had less job-related education than I had. He had one job-related professional certification while I had six. He had no job-related professional license like the one I had.

WASHINGTON EXAMINER
— Trump creates new classification of non-career federal government worker. While I worked for the Democrats who ran the federal government for almost 30 years, their top priority always was hiring, retaining, and promoting Democrats who were minority, female, younger, and/or veteran. The Democrats who ran GAO in 1980, IRS in 1971, and the Post Office in 1966 hired me because they could not find a qualified Democrat who was minority, female, younger and/or veteran who would take the jobs. Because I failed/refused to become a Democrat, they wasted my career and they got rid of me. My critic/opponents have no problem with the aforesaid.
https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/news/3475158/trump-new-classification-non-career-federal-government-worker/

CAPITOL NEWS ILLINOIS
— Federal housing credit expansion could increase affordable rental units in Illinois. What helped you avoid having to pay rent? For me, it was my earning a bachelor’s degree when I was 21, earning an MBA when I was 27, passing the CPA examination on my first attempt when I was 30, earning a master’s degree in accounting when I was 31, and passing the Certified Internal Auditor examination on my first attempt and becoming a licensed CPA when I was 32. That enabled me to buy a new town home when I was 24, buy condos when I was 25 and 27, get married and buy a home when I was 29, and have a home built when I was 35.

Paul Ingrassia’s nomination to head the Office of Special Counsel is at risk because of his history of scorched-earth rhetoric and extremist associations. I should write about my critics/opponents who distain/despise/hate federal employees and federal retires the most. I would focus on those who have lots of religious, government, political, and/or financial clout in Illinois, DuPage County, Milton Township, Wheaton, Wheaton Warrenville School District 200, and my precinct who have taken the most/biggest adverse actions against me lately.

— One Way to Predict Early Career Success. A complex project at a new job can play a pivotal role in how soon you are promoted. My Democrat IRS superiors, supervisors, and coworkers were beyond furious when I got a high-profile developmental assignment when I was 25 years old in 1973. According to them, the assignment should have been given to one of my Democrat coworkers who was minority, female, and/or veteran. My taking graduate evening business courses helped me get the assignment. They were even more furious went I got promoted to GS-12 , currently $99,069/year, because of my performance on the assignment. To punish me, they a) disallowed my travel vouchers and education deductions, b) never promoted me to GS-13, and c) ignored/dismissed/belittled my earning an MBA in 1976 and my passing the CPA examination on my first attempt in 1979. To punish the manager who had gotten me the assignment and who had promoted me, they forced him to transfer to Texas.

— Age discrimination and reverse discrimination in the accounting profession. I did not start taking graduate evening accounting courses until I was 27. I did not take and pass the CPA examination on my first attempt until I was 30. I did not earn a master’s degree in accounting until I was 31. I did not take and pass the Certified Internal Auditor examination and become a licensed CPA until I was 32. Because of that, even though I had almost 9 years’ experience working for IRS and more than a year working for GAO when I was 32, the CPA profession, including IRS and GAO, considered me to be far too old to have a successful career in accounting. The accounting profession would not have done that if I had been a minority or a female.

— According to Democrat and RINO leaders, when Whites and men do better than minorities and females, it is because Whites and men discriminate against minorities and females. Of course, that encourages minorities and females to despise/hate Whites and males. Since the 1960s, those above me have given tremendous preference to minorities and to females.

If I had gotten a student loan, I would have gotten better paying jobs because my GPA would have been higher. I spent far too many hours washing dishes and delivering mail instead of studying. Nevertheless, a) I graduated debt-free from NIU when I was 21 years old in 1970 owning a 1969 Dodge Charger SE and b) I earned enough money to buy a new 1972 Corvette in 1971, pay for graduate evening business courses 1972-1976, buy a new town home University Park in 1972, buy condos in downtown Chicago in 1974 and 1976, pay for graduate evening accounting courses 1976-1980, get married and buy a home in Wheaton with my wife in 1978, etc.

My critics/opponents wanted Andy McKenna to win the 2004 Illinois Republican U.S. Senate primary. They falsely claim that I supported Jack Ryan in that primary to falsely justify their continuing to do everything that they can to destroy me because Ryan withdrew after winning the primary and Obama won the general election.

SEE: https://www.google.com/search?q=%22revenue+officer%22+IRS+training After working for IRS for almost 9 years, the last 5 1/2 years of which at the GS-12 Step 1-5 Levels, currently $99,069-$112,280/year, I transferred from IRS to GAO in 1980. GAO audits IRS. My Democrat GAO superiors wasted what I learned working for IRS. They kept me off audits for all but 3 of the almost 18 years that I worked for GAO. They would not have done that if I had been a Democrat, minority, female, or veteran.
