— New laws aim to make higher education easier for Illinois students. Without benefit of these laws, I nevertheless was able to get UIC to accept me in 1966. I took college preparatory courses at Crete-Monee High School. I got an ACT score of 24. I graduated in the upper 20% of my class. Further, with my parents providing me with room and board during my first 3 years, I was able to pay for my college expenses by working for the Park Forest Post Office part-time during the school years and full-time during the summers.

— Pritzker ever-increasingly does everything that he can to a) attract voters to Illinois who have demographics that vote for Democrats and b) drive out of Illinois voters who have demographics that vote for Republicans. Demographics that vote for Democrats include liberal, minority, female, younger, non-Protestant, non-German American, have ancestors who have not been in America for a long time, lack education and/or job skills, have financial, health, and/or other problems, want/need/demand massive government assistance, boozers, gamblers, stoners, prostitutes, criminals, and citizens of foreign countries. Demographics that vote for Republicans include conservative, White, male, older, Protestant, German American, have ancestors who have been in America for a long time, non-poor, etc.

— Local lawmakers call US Army secretary’s visit to the Rock Island Arsenal a success. A merger proposed by the U.S. Department of Defense could cut up to 400 jobs from the base. During the first 6 months of 1989, I worked for the Democrats who ran GAO in Rock Island on an audit of the Department of Defense 1990 ammunition budget request. SEE: https://www.gao.gov/assets/150/148194.pdf  My Democrat GAO superiors assigned me to this audit to throw me off audits of IRS and to punish me for becoming an active member in a class action lawsuit in September of 1988 that charged them with reverse discrimination, age discrimination, and retaliation.

GOPUSA ILLINOIS
— I should write a book about Wheaton Independence Day parades since 1978. I would focus on Republican participation in those parades. I would focus on those who are working the hardest to diminish/end Republican participation in this year’s Wheaton and Glen Ellyn parades. They argue that the Milton Township Republican Organization (MTRO) cannot afford the $1,500+ cost of entry fees and candy for the parades. In 2007, I succeeded in raising $2,000 on short notice so that an elephant could walk behind U.S. Congressman Peter Roskam in Wheaton’s 2007 parade. SEE:  https://gopillinois.com/uncategorized/july-4-evening-edition-2/  I served as the Republican fundraiser for the Wheaton Independence Day parades 2005-2021. In my book, I would focus on those who had their operatives and their dupes end what I did. I have urged MTRO to encourage Republican candidates for U.S. Senate, U.S. Congressional District 3, Illinois statewide offices, Illinois senate, Illinois house, DuPage countywide offices, DuPage County District 4, etc. to participate in this year’s Wheaton and Glen Ellyn parades. Please join me in urging MTRO to maximize its participation in those parades. Please join me in urging Republican candidates to participate in those parades. I certainly hope that LaHood walks in both parades. His father walked in Wheaton’s 2005 parade. I spoke with him before the parade kicked off. Bob Dole walked in Wheaton’s 1996 parade, Jim Ryan in its 2002 parade, and Obama and his wife in its 2004 parade. – Dave Diersen

NEW YORK POST
— Democrat and RINO leaders ever-increasingly push more pot. If I had smoked pot, I would not have been able to a) get hired in 1964, 1966, 1970, 1971, and 1980, b) earn a bachelor’s degree in 1970 and master’s degrees in 1976, 1980, and 1997, c) pass the CPA examination on my first attempt in 1979 and the Certified Internal Auditor examination on my first attempt in 1981, d) earn more professional certifications in 1990, 1994, 1996, and 1997, e) earn a professional license in 1981, f) buy new cars in 1966, 1967, 1968, 1971, 1974, 1978, etc., g) buy real estate in 1972, 1974, 1976, 1978, and 1984, f) get married in 1978, g) etc.

— Trump threatens to unleash DOGE on Musk to save money tied to his numerous gov’t subsidies: ‘Elon may get more subsidy than any human being in history.’ My critics/opponents hint/imply/argue shout that I have no standing to criticize the federal government a) because the federal government employed me for almost 30 years, b) because I get a $66,780/year Civil Service Retirement System pension, and c) because the federal government continues to pay 72% of my and my wife’s health insurance. In my defense, the federal government wasted my career and forced me to retire when I was 49 years old in 1997. Further, I would not have become a postal employee in 1966 if my high school friend had not asked me to join him in taking the postal employment test and I would not have become an IRS employee in 1971 if I had not taken and passed the Federal Service Entrance Examination in 1970 as a backup if I could not get a job in the private sector and if Oldsmobile had not withdrew a job offer that I had accepted saying that it had just agreed to stop hiring Whites to settle an EEOC complaint. My efforts to get a good job in the private sector were frustrated by being viewed as being draft bait. Potential employers did not believe that my financial hardship draft deferment application would be approved.

WASHINGTON POST
— In 24-hour span, two in GOP who split with Trump say they won’t seek reelection. The decisions by Rep. Don Bacon and Sen. Thom Tillis illustrate how dissenting voices have little room in the GOP and complicate the party’s path to holding its majorities in the midterms. My critics/opponents in the Milton Township Republican Organization, DuPage County Republican Central Committee, and Illinois Republican Party are ever-increasingly furious a) that I continue to run for Republican Precinct Committeeman and b) that I continue to send out GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters. I should write about my critics/opponents.
