— FRONT PAGE: ‘We grieve with the Floyd family’: Police meet Chauvin verdict with cheers, fears, uncertainty – Burt Constable
(DIERSEN: Each and every Republican Precinct Committeeman in DuPage County should know what Mendrick has said about the Chauvin verdict (SEE BELOW). Needless-to-say, each and every Republican leader in DuPage County should encourage each and every Republican Precinct Committeemen in DuPage County to read GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters.)
https://www.dailyherald.com/news/20210421/we-grieve-with-the-floyd-family-police-meet-chauvin-verdict-with-cheers-fears-uncertainty-
(FROM THE ARTICLE: DuPage County Sheriff James Mendrick said he supports a bodycam system that activates the cameras of every officer at the scene whenever one pulls out a gun or Taser. “I want the public to see exactly what we’re doing from every angle,” he said. Calling Floyd’s murder an “atrocity,” Mendrick said his deputies are getting training in avoiding violent confrontations. “Anything that can drop the level of force is desired,” Mendrick said, adding that Tasers give officers an option between bare hands and a deadly gun. As an officer, he carried a Taser for 11 years. “I never had to pull the trigger,” said Mendrick, who would explain the Taser to offenders. “Please don’t make me do this.” DuPage County deputies also are getting training in how to deal with mental health issues, crisis intervention and diversity training with the NAACP. Interviews with inmates showed that one of the major reasons for confrontations is when police ask people of color for identification without probable cause. “We’re using that to guide our training,” Mendrick said.)

Extremely few GAO employees make the aforesaid promotion deadlines.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: In the prelude to the 1995 assassination of Prime Minister Yitzhak Rabin by an ultranationalist Israeli settler, many blamed then-opposition leader Netanyahu for contributing to — or at least failing to quell — violence and hate among his right-wing base. Weeks before the killing, Netanyahu stood on a balcony above Jerusalem’s Zion Square, where thousands of right-wing protesters vowed to “get rid of” Rabin, whom they called a “traitor” and a “Nazi” for signing a peace agreement with the Palestinians earlier that year.)

https://www.forbes.com/sites/chrislowney/2021/04/20/treachery-trust-and-courage-how-to-avoid-organizational-hell/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Every large organization, for example, suffers at least a few back-stabbers who badmouth or undermine colleagues, or who take credit for others’ ideas, or who play office politics by fomenting tribal rivalries that pit work teams against each other. Such soul-deadening behavior has hellish organizational consequences: productivity erodes, employees become alienated and unhappy, and so on.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: “If this is simply branded as a Republican effort the likelihood of success is very slim,” said Tim Rosales, a Republican consultant who was a senior adviser to the campaign of John Cox, a businessman who lost to Newsom in 2018 and is running again. His firm recently stopped working with Cox. Beyond Cox, the top Republicans in the race so far are former San Diego Mayor Kevin Faulconer and ex-U.S. Rep. Doug Ose, who last held office in 2005. Neither is close to a household name, though Faulconer has been barnstorming the state to raise his profile.)

POLITICO ILLINOIS
— The Illinois GOP has never been a fundraising juggernaut, and yet the first quarter numbers were still pretty bleak. For the first quarter, Illinois GOP reported receiving a little more than $115,000 in donations, leaving $74,374 in the bank after expenses, according to the State Board of Elections. Still, they’re worthy of an asterisk this time after a defeat at the top of the ticket and their new state leader has only been on the job since February. That left the Illinois GOP little time to define the party to potential donors. Is it the party of Donald Trump, for example? Or does it represent Rep. Adam Kinzinger? And what is the vision of party Chairman Don Tracy? The next quarter will be the real test of whether Tracy can galvanize support for his party. Another big question: Will billionaire Ken Griffin step in to help the way he did in the general election by funding opposition forces to the Democrats’ graduated income tax referendum? So far he and other donors have been missing from fundraising. The Democratic Party of Illinois, meanwhile, received about $2 million, leaving it with $2.6 million cash on hand. And Democratic Gov. J.B. Pritzker reports having $35 million in the bank, thanks to his self-funding. House Minority Leader Jim Durkin raised $125,000 in the first quarter and had about $267,00 on hand after expenses. His House Republican Organization, which funds GOP reps’ campaigns, raised $111,000, leaving a mere $200 in the bank after expenses. And Senate Minority Leader Dan McConchie raised $68,000 and has $432,000 cash on hand. His caucus committee raised $206,000 and has $209,000 in the bank. He’s new to the job, so it’s worth adding an asterisk there, too. Democratic Party leaders, who hold the majority, raked in the cash — even with their big fundraiser, former House Speaker Michael Madigan, out of the picture halfway through the quarter. New House Speaker Emanuel “Chris” Welch raised $1.2 million, with the Chicago Teachers Union making the largest donation: $59,900. Welch also contributed to local campaigns, leaving him $1.2 million cash on hand. And Senate President Don Harmon reported raising $402,000 and has nearly $6 million in the bank after spending $1.2 million primarily on the Senate Democrats’ caucus. – SHIA KAPOS

— How Generations of Presidents (Including Reagan) Wrecked Our Country – Michael Filozof
https://www.americanthinker.com/articles/2021/04/how_generations_of_presidents_including_reagan_wrecked_our_country.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Caldwell argues that the new “de facto constitution” has been used to supersede the Bill of Rights and the black-letter law of the traditional Constitution. Forced busing and forced integration violated the First Amendment right to freedom of association, as did affirmative action for blacks and women. Racial and sex-based preferences offend the Equal Protection Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment. These policies were enacted despite opposition from most Americans. . .Caldwell believes that the upshot of Reagan’s failure to undo the Great Society was the empowerment of minorities, women, immigrants, and wealthy globalist corporate elites (who turned out the be “woke” leftists in contrast with the conservative, buttoned-down corporate culture of the past). The losers were the white, working-class, traditional Americans who still believed in the old Constitution while under relentless wage pressure from immigration, affirmative action, and the offshoring of jobs — and were relentlessly mocked and sneered at by the media, politicians, and corporate oligarchs.)

FILLMORE COUNTY JOURNAL
— Tribal America – Stan Gudmundson, Peterson, MN
http://fillmorecountyjournal.com/tribal-america/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Obviously, there was much that needed correction. We tried to, with all sorts of schemes to include reverse discrimination, through programs like affirmative action, i.e., “black privilege.” But what dead people did to other dead people could not and cannot be fixed by discriminating against living innocents. Individual freedom should not have been sacrificed for tribal collectivism. I once toyed with the idea of becoming an FBI agent but I was advised not to apply. I was the wrong color and gender. The problem with the group rights “solutions” is that there is no fair way to determine who is entitled to what. Moreover, that approach transmutes constitutional guarantees of individual liberty into mere tribalism. It created, and still creates the impetus to further divide and subdivide us into more individual gangs, a consequence not clearly foreseen at the time. We are now split into many more tribes who now even have legally defined special rights. Gender, sexual preference, racial minorities to include black, Hispanic, Indian, illegal immigrants and on and on. Standing is based on power, therefore tribes must compete for attention, favors, resources, and legal status. That promotes unease and even provokes fear and hate of other gangs who are not part of the tribe. It also created a race-baiting industry whose advocates cannot allow racial problems to be solved. They would have to find other employment. The smallest minority is the individual. Our founders understood that and established a constitution based on individual liberty. When individual rights are protected, group rights are protected. A system based on group rights, rather than individual rights, completely obliterates the nature and character of America and the constitution our system is based on. That is why, despite the racial problems we had, group rights collectivization has been and is so dangerous. In the long run, giving tribes/gangs/mobs/hordes/packs legal group rights was never justified. The long-term damage and problems caused by wrecking the constitution, by far outweigh the civil rights issues of those days, despite being as bad as they might have been. Again, the imperative of individual liberty should never have been abandoned. Unless we eliminate the tribal system and unless we return to the system of individual constitutional liberty, the divide in America will become worse. Unfortunately, we will not get rid of tribalism and society/politics will become still nastier. Count on it.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: Can elected public officials discriminate from among the reporters who cover their activities based on who they like and don’t like? Obviously not, according to legal interpretations of the media’s First Amendment rights. More narrowly, can public officials pick and choose among news outlets, allowing some to cover their events while barring others? A federal appeals court in Chicago just answered the latter question in the affirmative. But it qualified its decision by asserting that the official picking and choosing must be based on neutral factors applied across the board.)

(DIERSEN: GAO works for Congress. During the mid-1990s, Newt Gingrich loomed large over the decisions that GAO made to deal with Gingrich’s tremendous GAO budget cuts. Gingrich let the Democrats who ran GAO deal with his budget cuts by getting rid of GAO employees who were Republican, White, male, and/or non-veteran who had not made GS-13 (currently $102,188) by age 25, GS-14 (currently $120,755) by age 30, GS-15 (currently $142,041) by age 35, and Senior Executive Service (currently $172,500) by age 40. Extremely few GAO employees make the aforesaid promotion deadlines.)

(DIERSEN: Between 1978 and 1992, while my wife worked for the U.S. League of Savings Institutions, we took four short vacations every year following her business trips, most commonly to luxury golf resorts across America. Most commonly, we rented a car and visited nearby national parks. Needless-to-say, my Democrat IRS and GAO superiors, supervisors, coworkers, and subordinates were beyond furious about that, and especially those whose spouse had little or no income and those who were not married.)

— To Break a Nation, Try Saturation Mass-Marketing – Eric Rozenman
(DIERSEN: Of course, the Democrats who have invaded DuPage County, Milton Township, and Wheaton want the aforesaid governments to issue proclamations that the remaining Republicans in DuPage County, Milton Township, and Wheaton are White supremacists, KKK members, haters, racists, sexists, bigots, and even worse things who should be driven out immediately. Of course, the Democrats who have invaded DuPage County and Milton Township want the DuPage County Republican Central Committee and the Milton Township Republican Organization to issue proclamations that all Republican candidates, party leaders, precinct committeemen, major donors, etc. must be at least one, two, three, or more of the following: Trump-hater, minority, female, younger, moderate, liberal, LGBTQ, non-married, poor, non-Christian, non-Protestant, non-Italian American, non-German American, and/or their ancestors have not been in America for a long time.)
https://townhall.com/columnists/ericrozenman/2021/04/18/to-break-a-nation-try-saturation-massmarketing-n2588056
(FROM THE ARTICLE: To break a nation, one doesn’t need invading armies, nuclear missiles or even a cyber warfare attack that fries the electrical grid. An incessant marketing campaign will do. Rebranding the United States as “racist”—allegedly systemic, structural or some other impossible-to-pin-down modifier—advances a false narrative. The objective is to demoralize proud Americans. Historically, radicals have used self-justifying promotional techniques to seize power. Nazis rode their “stab-in-the-back” conspiracy explanation of Germany’s World War I defeat from obscurity to total control in just a few years. In the name of “the people,” a small Bolshevik party pursued elastically defined “class enemies”; success allowed them to impose Soviet tyranny. Now a defuse movement, incubated on campuses for decades, grabs for power in the United States. Conjoined triplets—academia, Hollywood and partisan journalism—operate as a de facto “Ministry of Truth.” Apart from dissident conservative outlets, the movement to convict America as intrinsically racist has obtained what psychological warfare practitioners call “information dominance.”)

— Home Ownership = Racial Equity – Shannon Horton
(DIERSEN: What enabled you to buy your first home? I bought a new town home in University Park September 1972 when I was 24 years old. The down payment came from what I had earned a) working for the Firestone Store in Chicago Heights full-time August 1970-March 1971 and then part-time since March 1971 and b) working for IRS in Chicago and then in Harvey since June 1971. That money also enabled me to buy a new 1972 Corvette in October 1971 and to pay tuition and books for graduate business courses at Loyola starting in January 1972.
