The opinions that I express in GOPUSA ILLINOIS emails are based on experience that I have gained doing many things since 1948. I base my opinions on what I learned a) working for the federal government for almost 30 years -- Post Office 1966-1969, IRS 1971-1980, and GAO 1980-1997, serving on the Executive Committee of the Association of Government Accountants Chicago Chapter 1983-1996, and being a union member while I worked for the Post Office and IRS; b) earning an MBA from Loyola in 1976, a masters degree in accounting from DePaul in 1980, and a masters degree in financial markets and trading from IIT in 1997; c) passing the CPA examination on my first attempt in 1979 and passing the Certified Internal Auditor examination on my first attempt in 1981; c) serving as a Republican Precinct Committeeman since 1999, the GOPUSA Illinois Editor since 2000, the TAPROOT Republicans of Illinois Chairman 2005-2012, a member of the 2008 Illinois Republican Party (IRP) Platform and Resolutions Committee, a Wheaton Chamber of Commerce Government Affairs Committee member 2003-2011, the Milton Township Republican Central Committee webmaster 2008-2010 and 2000-2004, an Illinois Center Right Coalition Steering Committee member 2003-2007, and an American Association of Political Consultants Midwest Chapter board member 2001-2004; d) attending the 2000, 2004, 2008, 2012, and 2016 IRP State Conventions as a delegate; e) being the subject of a nasty 4-page article in the February 1978 issue of Money Magazine; f) pursing litigation including Diersen v. GAO and Diersen v. Chicago Car Exchange; g) being married since 1978; h) living in Crete 1948-1972, in University Park 1972-1976, in Chicago 1976-1978, and in DuPage County, Milton Township, and Wheaton since 1978; and i) being baptized, raised, and confirmed as a Missouri Synod Lutheran.

DAILY HERALD
— COMMENT: Democrats say “Batavia school board candidates discuss equity, student mental health.” If I was still the chairman of TAPROOT Republicans of Illinois and a member of the Illinois Center Right Coalition Steering Committee, those organizations would still be hosting candidate forums. QUESTION: What do hate-filled conservative-hating Republican leaders NOT want school board candidates to promise to do if elected? ANSWER: To slow down if not stop indoctrination, grooming, and the promotion of the Democrat, Libertarian, and Green party platforms, that is, to slow down if not stop the promotion of a) LGBTQ, sexual activity, and abortion, that is, the destruction of traditional marriage and the destruction of the traditional family; b) CRT, 1619, BLM, wokeness/wokeism, identity politics, victimhood, reparations, etc., that is, race and gender based preference giving, that is, Affirmative Action, Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion, that is, political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, and age discrimination; c) mass/illegal immigration, that is, replacing those who have demographics that vote for Republicans with those who have demographics that vote for Democrats; d) abolition of the First and Second Amendments; e) unions and unionization; f) dependency on government and on charity, that is, the end of individual responsibility and liberty, that is, socialism, communism, and dictatorship; g) hatred against Republicans, and especially against Republicans who are heterosexual, conservative, White, male, older, non-poor, married, parents, gun-owners, Christian, Protestant, Italian American, German American, and/or those whose ancestor have been in America for a long time; h) booze, gambling, pot, and other vices; i) outlawing of gasoline-powered vehicles and lawn mowers, gas stoves, etc.; and j) the rest of the Democrat, Libertarian, and Green party platforms. Democrat, Libertarian, Green, Independent, and RINO teachers deny that they do any the aforesaid, but not always. See what a Crete-Monee High School teacher recently said at: https://fox17.com/news/nation-world/i-am-in-fact-indoctrinating-your-children-teachers-accused-of-politicizing-classrooms She said “All you right wing conspiracy theory nut jobs who seem to think the teachers are out here just indoctrinating children into some sort of woke agenda that you can’t actually define.” and “I’m just going to come clean.

I should write a book about the aforesaid.)
https://www.postandcourier.com/greenville/politics/sc-gop-seeks-control-of-greenville-county-republican-party-reorganization/article_d69230d4-a980-11ed-bfad-07252a908932.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: A year and a half after an insurgent “MAGA” movement took over the Greenville County Republican Party, the South Carolina GOP apparatus at odds with the group is planning to seize control of the county party’s upcoming local organizational efforts. The South Carolina Republican Party’s executive director, Hope Walker, said the move is rooted in concern that leadership of the county party has alienated mainline Republican voters that state leaders want to attract as they look to the 2024 election cycle. Jeff Davis, chairman of the Greenville County Republican Party, called the state’s intervention a “tyrannical” power grab using dirty tricks to find any justification to seize control. It’s the latest expansion of what has been an acrid rift along the fault line of perceived loyalty to former president Donald Trump and lingering grievances over the 2020 election. Next month, the party will conduct its precinct reorganization, a biennial effort that culminates in a county convention. It’s a vital fundraiser with pomp and circumstance, with the aim of recruiting and mobilization. “Everything will run through the state party,” Walker told The Post and Courier. “The convention is supposed to be a fun and inviting time. We want as many people as we can to get involved and not be turned off. We don’t want that to be a deterrent for someone to get involved.” The county party’s current leadership managed in summer 2021 to oust a state party-friendly governance that had been elected a few months before — an election that Davis said was proven to be rigged by “RINOs,” short for “Republicans In Name Only.” “I think they want the opportunity to cheat again,” Davis told The Post and Courier regarding the state party’s move to take over reorganization. “They did it just to try to throw a monkey wrench.” On Feb. 2, the state party’s Rules Committee voted to recommend that the State Executive Committee vote to take over Greenville County’s reorganization and convention, according to a Feb. 4 memo formalizing the recommendation and endorsed by 13 members from across the state. State party leaders accused the county party of, among other alleged violations, conducting chaotic and sometimes violent meetings without proper quorums that have created a steady member exodus. Added to that, they said, is the county party’s opposition to successful Republican candidates that back the former president. The result in part led to the creation of the Fourth District Republican Club, a group representing more-mainstream Republicans which has hosted the likes of former 4th District congressman Jim DeMint and former presidential candidate Ben Carson. In December 2021, the State Executive Committee had Davis escorted from its meeting and banned him from future attendance. However, Davis told The Post and Courier that the county party’s leadership was unaware of any rules violations and repeatedly sought clarification from the state party dating back to November, only to be stonewalled. “This was just a surprise,” Davis said. “They never told or sent any communication that we were breaking any rules.” In a Feb. 8 letter to Walker, the county party asked for specifics on how the state party would assist in the reorganization effort. It inquired about funding and providing 3,000 necessary reorganization forms that county leaders said have been distributed to other counties. Davis said he believes establishment Republicans want to enlist voices that align with like-minded GOP politicians, whereas he would attract a crowd of 3,000 with an “America first” slate. Davis pointed to the county party’s successful effort in electing its preferred members to the Greenville County School Board. “I think they’re real nervous about our convention,” Davis said, adding that the takeover also is rooted in concern that he will run for the state chairman position. Meanwhile, Walker said state leadership is forging ahead with planning Greenville County’s effort. “Right now, we are working on venue dates and locations for what the process will look like in Greenville,” Walker said. The divide began in the weeks following Trump’s November 2020 loss to President Joe Biden and unproven claims of widespread voter fraud. Powered by the conspiracy theory, more people began to attend county party meetings in greater numbers, facilitated by a group Davis and others started, MySCGOP. It happened just as the party conducted that year’s reorganization. In April 2021, a three-person slate of candidates backed by traditional party leaders was elected to lead the county apparatus, a vote conducted virtually because of the pandemic and before widespread distribution of vaccines. A faction billing itself as the “MAGA slate” objected and claimed a rigged process. That group met in a Greenville hotel ballroom that day and submitted paper ballots. The MAGA slate lost in a close race, but come summer the insurgent group applied enough pressure to prompt the leadership’s resignations. That’s when Davis came into power, along with state executive committeeman Pressley Stutts, who a month later died due to COVID-19. Throughout the course of the year, the county party led protests against vaccine mandates, acceptance of election results, detainment of some of those accused of participating in the Jan. 6 riot at the U.S. Capitol and a host of other far-right issues. The county party at one point changed the party logo to feature Trump’s signature swooping, orange combover. It isn’t the only intraparty conflagration in South Carolina. In September, five members of the Horry County Republican Party abruptly resigned. Billing themselves as “America First Patriots” — mostly aligning with the beliefs of the current Greenville County party leadership — the Horry County leaders cited harassment and “backhanded” political tactics by the state party to undermine them. The resignations came after a September State Executive Committee meeting, which voted to condemn and remove perks from the members of the committee who, using false allegations, attempted to stall the reconvening of the 2021 State Republican Convention.)

I continue to own all of the aforesaid except the Cavalier which I traded-in for the Cruze.

— Here Comes the 60-Year Career. As people live longer, healthier lives, the traditional 40-year career will become a thing of the past. But that’s going to require a new mind-set—and a lot more planning. – Carol Hymowitz (COMMENT: How long is/was your career? Government is nasty/vicious. Politics is nasty/vicious. My Democrat GAO superiors ended my almost 18-year career with GAO in 1997 when was I was 49 years old when they forced me to take their early retirement “offer.” Constructively, that rendered me unemployable and rendered my GAO work experience worthless, my six job-related professional certifications worthless, my job-related professional license worthless, and my three job-related master’s degrees worthless. But even worse than that, it gave my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes tremendous ammunition to use against me. For example, to get the Illinois Center Right Coalition to censure me for my GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters at its annual convention in Wheaton in 2006, they hinted/implied/argued/shouted that GAO forced me to retire because I was an extremely bad person. They completely rejected that my Democrat GAO superiors forced me to retire because I was an active member in a class action lawsuit that charged them with reverse discrimination, age discriminations, and retaliation. SEE: https://gopillinois.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/09/DiersenGAOFifthAmendedComplaint.pdf I should write a book about the aforesaid and about my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes. Better yet, I should sue them.)

Ever-increasingly, RINOs demonize, denigrate, and condemn Republicans like me as being “too conservative.” The more planks in the Republican Party platform that you support, the more that RINOs demonize, denigrate, and condemn you as being “too conservative.” I should start identifying RINOs of the year, RINOs of the month, and RINOs of the week in Illinois, in DuPage County, in Milton Township, and in Wheaton. I would focus on RINO elected officials and on RINO conservative leaders who have taken and/or who are taking the most/biggest adverse actions against me. I would focus on RINO elected officials and on RINO conservative leaders who have done and/or are doing the most to stop me from sending out GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters and to stop everyone from reading those newsletters.)

By January of 1980, I had a) passed the CPA examination on my first attempt, b) earned an MBA from Loyola, and c) worked for IRS for almost 9 years. By June of 1971, I had a) passed the Federal Service Entrance Examination, b) earned a bachelor’s degree in management from NIU, and c) worked for Firestone Stores for 10 months. By November of 1966, I had passed the Post Office employment examination, earned a high school diploma, and owned and safely driven a car for 2 years.

— COMMENT: Rich Miller says “Election consulting fees interesting.” I should write a book about how Republican political consultants, major donors, fundraisers, pollsters, etc. in Illinois have treated me and treated my GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters since 2000. I have been a member of the American Association of Political Consultants (AAPC) since 2001. I served as an AAPC Midwest Chapter board member from 2001 until I was rudely dumped in 2004. I am one of the only seven AAPC members in Illinois and I am one of the only two members who work only for Republicans. GAO works for Congress. Much of what GAO does is consulting. I worked for GAO as an Analyst for almost 18 years 1980-1997, the last 11 years of which at the GS-13 Step 1-10 Levels, currently $109,732-$142,650/year. Much of what CPAs and Certified Internal Auditors do is consulting. I passed the CPA examination on my first attempt in 1979 and I passed the Certified Internal Auditor examination on my first attempt in 1981. I became a licensed CPA in 1981.
https://jg-tc.com/opinion/columnists/rich-miller-election-consulting-fees-interesting/article_2942af7a-a8af-11ed-a4f8-e39ec43546c3.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: State records show that Dan Proft’s People Who Play by the Rules PAC spent almost $36 million during the second half of 2022, mostly on advertising boosting Sen. Darren Bailey’s gubernatorial bid and opposing Gov. J.B. Pritzker. Of that, $2.4 million was spent on consulting. Former ABC7 political reporter Charles Thomas was paid $100,000 in two $50,000 installments. Thomas appeared in some of Proft’s ads praising Bailey. Tyrone Muhammed, the controversial founder of Ex-Cons for Community and Social Change, which bills itself as a violence interruption group, was paid $250,000 for consulting work. Proft’s Starfish Consulting was also a recipient of almost $535K. But the highest paid consultant for Proft’s PAC during the last six months of 2022 was a Chicago company called Salvo Page LLC, which got $800,000, plus another $111K for website services. Salvo Page is not registered as a company with the state of Illinois. The only campaign payments to the company disclosed to the state were made by Proft’s People Who Play by the Rules PAC. Google searches turn up nothing. Proft did not respond to repeated requests for comment over several days. A search of Salvo Page’s Chicago address on the State Board of Election’s website turned up a clue. Salvo Page shares a Chicago street address with Pipeline Media. The Columbia Journalism Review’s Tow Center has done extensive reporting on Pipeline and similar companies. According to that reporting, the company is run by Brian Timpone, a longtime Proft associate. I wasn’t able to reach Timpone. Richard Uihlein, who was the principal funder of Bailey’s campaign via Proft’s PAC as well as some direct contributions, controls a committee called Restoration PAC, which paid Pipeline and an affiliate company well over a million dollars last year for various services, CJR’s Tow Center reported last October. And that brings us to Republican Illinois attorney general candidate Tom DeVore. When DeVore busted the campaign contribution caps in his race last August with a $250,000 personal loan to his campaign committee, some thought he might be opening the door to large contributions, perhaps from the billionaire Richard Uihlein. Instead, all DeVore really did was allow Democratic incumbent Kwame Raoul to take a million-dollar contribution from Gov. Pritzker’s campaign fund – $940,100 more than Pritzker could’ve contributed had the contribution caps been in place. A few labor organizations also contributed sums slightly above the previous cap limit of $59,900, but it wasn’t much. DeVore received a $10,000 contribution from James Hoeg in late October, which was $4,000 more than he would’ve been able to receive had it not been for the caps being lifted (Hoeg, by the way, recently contributed $50,000 to Paul Vallas’ Chicago mayoral campaign). DeVore also received a $50,000 contribution in late September from the Anthony Marano Company (which sells produce to Chicago-area restaurants). The contribution was $38,000 above the by-then-negated limit. And that’s it. $42K is all DeVore appears to have netted from his cap-busting loan. There’s often an expectation when candidates loan money to their campaigns that they’ll spend most of it. Instead, DeVore reimbursed himself almost all of that cash, including a $200,000 payment on October 14, even though the campaign was entering its final few weeks, and then another $15,000 the day after election day. DeVore reported $226,072 in contributions starting the day after he loaned himself that money, which was just about $11,000 more than what DeVore reimbursed himself. Outside of the loan repayment, DeVore reported spending less than $142,000 in the fourth quarter, which ended December 31. By contrast, AG Raoul reported spending almost $1.9 million in the same quarter. DeVore spent just $8,642.98 on advertising during the fourth quarter. Raoul reported spending almost $1.7 million. In other words, DeVore did not run a campaign designed to win. But we pretty much knew that during the campaign itself. He got thumped by Raoul. DeVore did manage to elevate and give voice to some folks on the far right. Shannon Adcock was a significant DeVore contributor, kicking in $2,500 during September. Adcock is one of the founders of Awake Illinois, a far-right group that opposed pandemic mandates in schools that has since morphed into firing up moral panic over gays and trans people in schools, libraries and coffee shops. Vallas spoke at one of her events. DeVore is now busily lining up clients to fund a third lawsuit against the state’s assault weapons ban at $200 a person. He raised more than half a million dollars with that same flat fee to fund his first two suits.)

Ever-increasingly, Democrats and RINOs discriminate against Whites. Soon, the more White that you are, Democrats and RINOs will stop you from getting an education, getting and keeping jobs, owning vehicles and real estate, etc. They will start with Whites who are heterosexual, conservative, Republican, male, older, gun-owners, Protestant, Italian American, German American, and/or those whose ancestors have been in America for a long time. It is called political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, age discrimination, replacement theory, and even worse things. I should write a book about the aforesaid.

(FROM THE ARTICLE: The 2024 primary field could be even more crowded than it was four years earlier. There are several major Democratic officeholders thought to be waiting for the right moment to run for president. If Biden doesn’t run, that moment might arrive early for three governors: California’s Gavin Newsom, Illinois’s J.B. Pritzker, and Michigan’s Gretchen Whitmer. The first two governors have vast resources at their disposal, while the third checks an awful lot of boxes for Democrats valuing electability above all else.)

HARVARD BUSINESS SCHOOL
— FROM THE ARTICLE: “Pick one thing to focus on for the rest of your life!” What did you focus on in the past and what are you focusing on now? When I was young, I focused on a) making myself a productive member of society and b) making the most of my potential. I earned college degrees (NIU, B.S., management, 1970; Loyola, MBA, 1976; DePaul, M.S., accounting; 1980; and IIT, M.S., financial markets and trading, 1997), professional certifications (CPA, 1979; Certified Internal Auditor, 1981; Certified Fraud Examiner, 1990; Certified Government Financial Manager, 1994; Certified Financial Services Auditor, 1996; and Forensic Accountant, 1997), and a professional license (CPA, 1981). But the aforesaid all came crashing down in 1997 when I was 49 years old and my Democrat GAO superiors succeeded in making me take their early retirement “offer.” Starting in 2000, I have focused on helping elect Republican candidates on ballots in my precinct. I have been a Republican Precinct Committeeman since 1999 and the GOPUSA Illinois Editor since 2000. I served as the webmaster for the Milton Township Republican Organization (MTRO) 2000-2004 and 2008-2010, a member of the Illinois Center Right Coalition Steering Committee 2003-2007, the chairman of TAPROOT Republicans of Illinois 2005-2012, and the Republican fundraiser for Wheaton Independence Day parades and fireworks 2005-2019. But ever-increasing, my efforts to help elect Republican on ballots in my precinct is crashing down. Ever-increasingly, Illinois Republican Party, DuPage County Republican Central Committee, and MTRO leaders and Republican candidates on ballots in my precinct treat me like they blame me and blame what I have done to help elect them for their defeats. Ever-increasing, Republican candidates on ballots in my precinct act like they do not want me to help elect them. Most commonly, they hint/imply/argue/shout that I am “too conservative.” Ever-increasingly, they hint/imply/argue/shout that I share too many demographics with Trump and that my demographics are bad: conservative, Republican, White, male, old (74), draft-avoider, gun-owner, heterosexual, married, childless, union member for almost 12 years, federal employee for almost 30 years, federal retiree for more than 27 years, someone who was forced into early retirement when they were 49 years old, someone who has filed lawsuits, Protestant, 100% German American, my ancestors have been in America since 1844, Crete resident 1948-1972, Wheaton resident since 1978, etc. If you were me, what would you do about the aforesaid?

— 10 Main Reasons Why Candidates Lose Elections – Brian Floyd (COMMENT: I should write a book about why Republican candidates on ballots in my precinct have lost elections since 2000. Of course, I would focus on those candidates who have blamed their losses a) on me since 2000, b) on my GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters since 2000, c) on my raising funds from them to help sponsor Wheaton Independence Day parades and fireworks 2005-2019, d) on what I did as the TAPROOT Republicans of Illinois chairman 2005-2012, e) on what I did as an Illinois Center Right Coalition Steering Committee member 2003-2007, and f) on my supporting their opponents in primary and/or nonpartisan elections. I would focus on candidates who lost U.S. Senate, U.S. House, Illinois statewide, Illinois Senate, Illinois House, DuPage countywide, DuPage 4th District, Milton Township, Wheaton citywide, Wheaton West District, and judicial races. I would focus on their political consultants, major donors, fundraisers, pollsters, campaign managers, campaign staff members, and campaign volunteers. I would focus on those candidates who I did the most to help elect since 2000, but who then have taken the most/biggest adverse actions against me to punish me for their losses.)

— COMMENT: Democrats say “Sen. Duckworth reintroduces bill to ban race based internments.” What is Duckworth’s position on the Internment of German resident aliens and German-American citizens during WWI and WWII? SEE: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internment_of_German_Americans My critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes stress that I am 100% German national origin. In my defense, I have often stressed that my grandfather on my father’s side fought the Germans in WWI ( SEE: https://www.capturingcrete.org/items/show/111 and https://www.capturingcrete.org/items/show/152 ), that my uncles on my mother’s side fought the Germans in WWII, and that my father would have fought the Germans in WWII if he had not been 4-F.
https://1430wcmy.com/2023/02/11/sen-duckworth-reintroduces-bill-to-ban-race-based-internments/
(FROM WIKIPEDIA: Internment of German resident aliens and German-American citizens occurred in the United States during the periods of World War I and World War II. During World War II, the legal basis for this detention was under Presidential Proclamation 2526, made by President Franklin Delano Roosevelt under the authority of the Alien Enemies Act. With the US entry into World War I after Germany’s unrestricted submarine warfare, German nationals were automatically classified as “enemy aliens”. Two of the four main World War I-era internment camps were located in Hot Springs, North Carolina, and Fort Oglethorpe, Georgia. Attorney General A. Mitchell Palmer wrote that “All aliens interned by the government are regarded as enemies, and their property is treated accordingly.” By the time of WWII, the United States had a large population of ethnic Germans. Among residents of the United States in 1940, more than 1.2 million persons had been born in Germany, 5 million had two native-German parents, and 6 million had one native-German parent. Many more had distant German ancestry. During WWII, the United States detained at least 11,000 ethnic Germans, overwhelmingly German nationals.[3] The government examined the cases of German nationals individually, and detained relatively few in internment camps run by the Department of Justice, as related to its responsibilities under the Alien Enemies Act. To a much lesser extent, some ethnic German US citizens were classified as suspect after due process and also detained. Similarly, a small proportion of Italian nationals and Italian Americans were interned in relation to their total population in the US. The United States had allowed immigrants from both Germany and Italy to become naturalized citizens, which many had done by then. In the early 21st century, Congress considered legislation to study treatment of European Americans during WWII, but it did not pass the House of Representatives. Activists and historians have identified certain injustices against these groups. Unlike Italian Americans and Japanese Americans, German Americans have not received an official apology for these events.)

LOOK FOR DeSANTIS to announce after the Florida legislature adjourns in late spring. He’s only 44 years old, a plus as the country looks for fresh leaders. He’s a graduate of Yale and the Harvard Law School and is a Navy veteran. DeSantis is the GOP favorite, poised to give Biden a very competitive race.)

— COMMENT: Democrats say “California reparations efforts eyeing $5 million payments, restitution.” How much reparations have you paid? How much will you pay? Ever-increasingly, Democrats promote reparations. Affirmative Action (AA), Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) are reparations. Because of my bad demographics (conservative, Republican, White, male, non-veteran, non-poor, Protestant, 100% German American, and my ancestors have been in America since 1844), my Democrat and RINO critics/opponents have made me pay lots of reparations since the 1970s. I should write a book about my RINO critics/opponents who share my bad demographics, but who have paid little or no reparations. I would focus on past and present a) leaders of the Illinois Republican Party, DuPage County Republican Central Committee, and Milton Township Republican Organization, b) Republican candidates on ballots in my precinct and their major donors, political consultants, fundraisers, pollsters, campaign managers, campaign staff members, and campaign volunteers, c) Republican elected officials in Illinois, DuPage County, Milton Township, and Wheaton, d) conservative and religious leaders and activists in Illinois, DuPage County, Milton Township, and Wheaton, and e) those who I have sued.

(FROM THE ARTICLE: Supposedly “nonpartisan” groups are influencing ad companies behind the scenes to blacklist conservative websites under the guise of fighting what they consider to be “disinformation.” A recent report from the Washington Examiner delves into the inner workings of these groups and their relationship with ad companies, as they are essentially using their influence with these ad companies to target right-wing outlets. According to the report, some brands are reaching out to third-party companies tasked with tracking what they deem to be “disinformation,” thereby advising the brand to defund websites the organization believes are spreading falsehoods or misleading narratives.)

They blame me and blame my newsletters for all the losses that Republican candidates on ballots in my precinct have suffered since 2000.

BLOOMINGTON PANTAGRAPH
— COMMENT: Democrats say “Indiana Republicans back partisan school boards switch. Indiana Republicans have forged ahead with a proposal that would upend the current nonpartisan school board elections across the state despite opponents of the change arguing it would further inject politics into local schools.” What is the political affiliation a) of the members of your school board and b) of the April 4, 2023 candidates for those positions? The Democrat Party does everything that it can to elect and to reelect Democrat school board members. In Illinois, Democrats have succeed in stopping the Illinois Republican Party, DuPage County Republican Central Committee, and Milton Township Republican Organization from helping elect Republican school board members. Consequently, Democrats run public education in Illinois, in DuPage County, in DuPage County’s 4th District, in Milton Township, in Wheaton, in Wheaton’s West District, and in my precinct.)

https://www.shawlocal.com/northwest-herald/news/local/2023/02/08/wisconsin-based-pac-raising-money-to-educate-voters-in-mchenry-county/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: While the scope of the new PAC in McHenry County was unclear, Datwyler’s other efforts in Illinois have helped GOP candidates, records show. Datwyler last year was involved with The Firewall Project, which helped unsuccessful Republican Illinois Supreme Court candidates Michael J. Burke and Mark Curran, as well as failed GOP DuPage County Board candidate Greg Hart in last year’s election, records show. The Firewall Project, for which Datwyler also was listed as chair and treasurer, was listed with a Washington D.C. address, records show. It made more than $1 million in contributions to Illinois candidates including nearly $399,000 to Burke, more than $408,000 to Curran and about $423,000 to Hart, online records show. Families for a Safer Illinois, another committee of which Datwyler was the treasurer, received $745,000 from the Republican State Leadership Committee between July and October of last year, records show. That amount marked all the money the committee received, records show. The Republican State Leadership Committee’s board includes former President Donald Trump’s onetime chief of staff and ex-Republican National Committee Chair Reince Priebus, as well as Karl Rove, who was a senior advisor to President George W. Bush.)

— COMMENT: Democrats say “Chicago Mayoral, Suburban Candidates To Appear At AADC Forum. The Arab American Democratic Club will host a brunch and forum for Chicago mayoral and suburban candidates Feb. 12, at Niko’s Banquets.” If I was still the chairman of TAPROOT Republicans of Illinois and an Illinois Center Right Coalition (ICRC) Steering Committee member, those organization would still be hosting candidate forums. I should write a book about those who destroyed TAPROOT and ICRC. I would focus on those who took the most/biggest adverse actions against me.

LAGRANGE PATCH
— It’s Hard To Reach LTHS Board Members. Even a big industrial developer struggled to find a way to get in touch with the board president. – David Giuliani (COMMENT: How do the following treat you and treat those who share your demographics: a) your school board members and b) April 4, 2023 candidates for those positions? Do the candidates want you to help elect them? If you are a conservative and if they do not want your help, is it because Democrats, Libertarians, Greens, Independents, and RINOs have succeeded in demonizing you, denigrating you, and condemning you as being “too conservative?” I should write a book about the aforesaid.

FORBES
— COMMENT: Democrats say “The Illinois School Voucher Law Is About To Ride Into The Sunset” and ask “Will Lawmakers Rescue It, Or Just Wave Goodbye?” How much money did your parents have when you were young? Because my outstanding parents had enough money to send me to Trinity Lutheran Grade School in Crete 1953-1961 and then to Hope Lutheran Grade School in Park Forest 1961-1962 to stay with the Missouri Synod, my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes have always viciously demonized, denigrated, and condemned them and me as being filthy rich. In my and in my parents’ defense, my father never earned more than $50,000/year in today’s dollars. He almost always worked second jobs to pay the family’s bills. He did not buy a new car until he was 45 years old in 1967 and it was a bottom of the line 6-cylinder 2-door Chevrolet. My mother never worked outside of our home until after he died suddenly in 1969 when he was 47 and I was 21. Because my parents lacked money to pay for my college expenses, a) I did yard work 1962-1964, b) I delivered newspapers 1962-1966, c) I washed dishes 1964-1966, d) I cleaned golf shoes, chipped slag, and pumped gasoline in 1966, and e) I delivered mail 1966-1969.

CPA PRACTICE ADVISOR
— COMMENT: Democrats say “CPA Diversity Report Explores the Barriers to Minority Advancement in the Profession.” Were you a barrier? My Democrat GAO superiors demonized me, denigrated me, and condemned me as being a barrier to my Black CPA subordinate’s advancement. So they a) forced me to take their early retirement “offer” in 1997 when I was 49 years old, b) gave him my job, and c) gave him my preferred corner office. Previously, to get rid of me, they a) always ranked me in the bottom half of my coworkers for pay-for-performance purposes, b) kept me off audits of IRS for all but 3 of the almost 18 years that I worked for GAO, c) gave me bad job assignments, unfair performance expectations, and unfair performance appraisals, d) assigned me to supervise their most problematic employees, e) turned my superiors, supervisors, coworker, and subordinates against me, f) never promoted me beyond GS-13, g) delayed my promotions to GS-11, GS-12, and GS-13, and h) forced me to take a $21,863/year pay cut in today’s dollars, a downgrade from 12 Step 5, currently $104,583/year, to GS-9 Step 10, currently $82,720/year to transfer from IRS to GAO in 1980.

https://www.theepochtimes.com/immigration-reform-group-calls-on-mccarthy-to-get-border-security-bill-onto-house-floor_5035800.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Until we have a mandatory workforce verification system–like E-Verify–in place, immigrants will have an incentive to come into our country through illegal means. We want and need immigrants to come to our nation to contribute to our economic success, but we must also remain a sovereign nation governed by the rule of law.” Chmielenski said Calvert’s proposed Legal Workforce Act has “actually been endorsed by the U.S. Chamber of Commerce, the National Restaurant Association, and National Home Builders Association. These are organizations that tend to oppose additional mandates on employers.” Right now, according to the National Conference of State Legislatures, 22 states impose some form of “mandatory E-Verify rather than just requiring I-9,” he said, which puts the onus on employers to “become document experts. E-Verify is a touchy subject in the states but [mandatory E-Verify] would replace a patchwork of laws from state-to-state and go a long way” to addressing the nation’s immigration issues.)

— COMMENT: Democrats say “State of the Union: Biden recognizes Brandon Tsay, who disarmed Monterey Park shooter and says He saved lives. It’s time we do the same. Ban assault weapons now.” On their way to abolishing the Second Amendment, Democrats want to register all semiautomatic firearms, then ban all semiautomatic firearms, than register all firearms, then ban all firearms, then confiscate all firearms from non-Democrats starting with non-Democrats who are heterosexual, conservative, Republican, White, male, older, non-poor, homeowners, married, Christian, Protestant, Italian American, German American, and/or those whose ancestors have been in America for a long time.

NORTHERN STAR
— COMMENT: Democrat say “Student Government Association proposed petition criticizes NIU’s efforts at inclusion.” NIU let me transfer from UIC in 1969 when I was 20 years old, but because of my bad demographics, if I was 20 years old today, I doubt that NIU would let me do that today. I am White, male, heterosexual, conservative, Republican, non-poor, Protestant (baptized, raised, and confirmed as a Missouri Synod Lutheran), 100% German national origin, and my ancestors have been in America since 1844. Factors that encouraged NIU to let me transfer included I was a federal employee (Park Forest Post Office), a union member, draft avoider, and I had not been active in Republican politics at Crete-Monee High School or at UIC.
https://northernstar.info/103019/news/sga-petition-criticizes-nius-efforts-at-inclusion/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Amid growing concerns of what it’s calling NIU’s inactivity toward racism and lack of diversity on campus, the Student Government Association has proposed a petition to shed light on student concerns. The proposed petition was co-authored by Historian Atlas Babcock and Director of Diversity, Equity and Inclusion Olivia Newman and was developed in collaboration with feedback from Black student organizations on campus. The petition proposed highlights three issues with the university raised by students: “A lack of diversity and representation in campus staff and administration,” “performative activism” and “lack of long-term community support.” Among examples of student complaints are over-policing at Black events, a lack of Black representation among administration and staff, failure to provide upkeep to the BLM mural and more. Much of the discussion around the proposed petition centered on the university’s handling of inclusion in the past and what the SGA wants NIU to do going forward.)

DAILY EASTERN NEWS
— COMMENT: Ever-increasingly, Democrats, Libertarians, Greens, Independents, and RINOs attribute all the successes that White males have to their benefitting from discrimination against minorities and against females. While I worked for the federal government for almost 30 years, my superiors were always under tremendous pressure from Democrat politicians to give preference to their Democrat employees, and especially to those who were minority, female, and/or younger. If I had been a Democrat a minority and/or a female, my Democrat superiors would have promoted me into their Senior Executive Service, currently $183,500/year, long before I was 40 in 1988. I earned an MBA from Loyola when I was 27. I passed the CPA examination on my first attempt when I was 30. I earned a master’s degree in accounting from DePaul when I was 31. I passed the Certified Internal Auditor examination on my first attempt in when I was 32. I became a licensed CPA when I was 32. Because I was not a Democrat, a minority, or a female, a) IRS did not promote me beyond GS-12, Step 5, currently $104,583/year, and b) GAO forced me to take a $21,863/year pay cut in today’s dollars, a downgrade from GS-12 Step 5 to GS-9 Step 10, currently $82,720/year, to transfer from IRS to GAO in 1980, did not promote me beyond GS-13 Step 1, currently $109,732/year, until I was 38, and forced me to take their early retirement “offer” in 1997 when I was 49. I should write a book about the aforesaid. I would cite my many Democrat coworkers who my Democrat superiors promoted over me who had a) less job-related work experience than I had, b) less job-related education than I had, c) fewer job-related professional certifications than I had, and/or d) had no job-related professional license.

WASHINGTON POST
— COMMENT: Democrats say “Biden faced GOP jeers.”
https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2023/02/07/takeaways-state-of-the-union/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: 3. A jeer-filled affair It’s been 14 years since a Republican member of Congress appeared to cross a threshold by yelling “You lie” at Barack Obama during a speech to a joint session of Congress. Tuesday’s speech marked the continued trend toward partisan raucousness during what was once a much more staid affair. Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.), perhaps predictably, repeated Rep. Joe Wilson’s (R-S.C.) outburst from 2009 when Biden brought up Medicare and Social Security. (It’s worth noting that Biden qualified his comments about Republican support for Scott’s plan by emphasizing: “I’m not saying it’s a majority,” but he was jeered anyway. McCarthy shook his head while seated behind Biden.) Biden responded to all this by suggesting it was an important moment, with Republicans so loudly taking issue with the idea that they would target entitlements: “I’m glad to see — you know, I enjoy conversion. When Biden brought up fentanyl deaths, he was met with a response of: “It’s your fault!” Republicans also took exception to his comments about other issues, including gun control and the border. The latter instance elicited a notable response from McCarthy: While he sat stone-faced for much of the speech, the GOP outcry drew a demonstrative blink from the House speaker, who shushed his conference. McCarthy earlier Tuesday had promised no “childish” games, specifically citing then-House speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) having ripped up a copy of Trump’s speech after the 2020 State of the Union address. And as the speech wore on, we got a sense for why, perhaps, it got so contentious. In contrast to McCarthy’s shushing, Trump on Truth Social attacked “RINO” — Republican in Name Only — party members for “jumping up and down with applause for the wrong reasons!”)

— House Appropriations to Hear Firearm Permit Bill
https://www.nraila.org/articles/20230206/washington-house-appropriations-to-hear-firearm-permit-bill
(FROM THE ARTICLE: On February 8th, at 4:00PM, the House Appropriations Committee will hear House Bill 1143, to impose a firearm permit requirement, a training mandate, and a 10-day waiting period scheme, along with allowing indefinite delays on firearm transfers. The Appropriations Committee considers the fiscal impacts of the bill. HB 1143 is an unfunded gun-control mandate and will cost individuals hundreds to thousands of dollars to exercise their fundamental right to keep and bear arms. NRA members and Second Amendment supporters are encouraged to oppose HB 1143 by noting their position for the legislative record and with in-person, remote, or written testimony. Click here for more information on how to participate. House Bill 1143 denies law-abiding citizens their Second Amendment right to acquire firearms unless they obtain a government-issued permit. The permit is only valid for five years and to obtain the permit, the state requires completion of official, sanctioned firearms training every five years. It also imposes an arbitrary ten-day delay on prospective gun owners taking possession of their firearms and makes this delay longer or indefinite if the state fails to complete background check during that time. Again, please contact committee members and ask them to OPPOSE HB 1143, and please consider testifying as well.)

SPRINGFIELD STATE JOURNAL REGISTER
— COMMENT: Democrats say “From repealing the weapons ban to no smoking here are five new bills lawmakers introduced.” Ever-increasingly, Illinois Democrats dominate Illinois and call those in Illinois who they cannot dominate “failed.”
https://www.sj-r.com/story/news/politics/state/2023/02/05/here-are-five-new-bills-proposed-in-the-illinois-general-assembly/69859918007/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Weapons ban: House Bill 1564 Legal challenges to Illinois’ ban on the sale and purchase of assault-style weapons have mounted in recent weeks at the state and federal levels. The efforts have been led by Republicans, including three lawsuits from failed Attorney General candidate Thomas DeVore. Earlier this week, a split appellate court upheld a decision by an Effingham County judge to issue a temporary restraining order in favor of DeVore and the 886 plaintiffs he was representing. Through House Bill 1564, Republicans seek to repeal several provisions of the Protect Illinois Communities Act — signed into law as Public Act 102-1116 by Pritzker during the lame-duck session. Specifically, the bill from state Rep. Dave Severin, R-Benton, would remove the act’s language that prevents an individual’s ability to “knowingly possess an assault weapon, assault weapon attachment, .50 caliber rifle, or .50 caliber cartridge,” as of Jan. 1, 2024. It would also return the firearm restraining order to six months instead of the current one-year order created by PICA. Severin is joined by nine other GOP co-sponsors in opposition to the ban passed under House Bill 5471. “The people that I represent, and indeed the people of our entire region believe the firearms ban that Governor Pritzker signed is a direct attack on Second Amendment rights, and I agree,” Severin said in a statement. “I am a pro-2nd Amendment legislator and always have been. I filed this bill because I believe firmly that the firearms ban is unconstitutional and it should be repealed immediately.”

ILLINOIS REVIEW
— Local Republican Leaders Select Lemont Mayor John Egofske, an Independent Who Endorsed Democrats, to Fill Jim Durkin’s Vacant House Seat (COMMENT: Political parties exist to help elect candidates who can and will defend and advance their platform. The Republican Party platform is conservative. How will Egofske respond to ever-increasing pressure from hate-filled conservative-hating leaders of the Illinois Republican Party (IRP) a) to officially abolish the individual responsibility, traditional marriage/family, right to life, immigration, Second Amendment, illegal drugs, equal opportunity (no race or gender based preference giving), and other planks in the Republican Party platform, b) to officially banish conservatives from the IRP, and c) to officially dissolve the IRP?)
https://www.illinoisreview.com/illinoisreview/2023/02/breaking-local-republican-leaders-select-lemont-mayor-john-egofske-an-independent-who-endorsed-democrats-to-fill-jim-durkins-vacant-house-seat.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: In 2020, Egofske endorsed Democratic US Rep. Daniel Lipinski and on October 22, 2022, just weeks before the midterm election, Egofske endorsed Illinois Democratic State Rep. Larry Walsh, Jr., a member of Democratic House Speaker Chris Welch’s leadership team – where he serves as Downstate Caucus Whip, saying, “Regardless of partisan politics, it’s all about getting things done, and I have seen firsthand that Larry Walsh Jr gets things done.” Sources confirm to Illinois Review that Durkin wrote a letter of support to the committee, expressing his support for Egofske to replace him in the Illinois House of Representatives. In announcing the formation of the committee tasked with finding Durkin’s replacement, DuPage Republican Chairman Jim Zay said, “Leader Durkin has been a tremendous advocate for our region and state, and we thank him for his extraordinary service. Our committee looks forward to a transparent and thorough process to fill this important position.” In addition to Zay, the committee includes Tim Ozinga (Will Co.), Michael Shackel (Lemont Twp.), Terrance Carr (Lyons Twp.), Cindy Nelson Katsenes (Orland Twp.) and Sean Morrison (Palos Twp.). The vote is weighted, with Zay’s vote having the most influence on the committee (44%). Carr, 24%; Shackel, 22%; Ozinga, 4%; Katsenes, 3%; and Morrison, 2%. During the Republican primary, Durkin, Morrison, Ozinga and Zay endorsed Richard Irvin’s campaign for governor. But in previous elections, Irvin not only pulled Democratic Primary ballots in 2014, 2016 and 2020, but he also spent years praising Democratic Gov. JB Pritzker – referring to him as a “great friend and a great leader.” And in 2020, Irvin attended a Black Lives Matter rally, yelling, “I can’t breathe!” During the midterm election, Durkin suffered embarrassing losses, giving House Democrats once again, supermajority control in the Illinois House. In media interviews after announcing his resignation as House GOP leader the day after the midterms, Durkin attempted to place all of the blame on the 45th President of the United States Donald Trump. “As long as we continue to say that we are the party of Trump and that we have to abide by the party principles in the platform, 100% we’re gonna continue down this path of losing.” When Durkin announced that he was resigning from his seat in the legislature in January, he once again blamed Trump for Illinois’ losses, saying, “I hope that at some point in the near future, and I think we’re getting there, that the party breaks its fever of Donald Trump and understands and learns from the past. Some people will never get there.” Durkin then suggested that pro-life and 2nd Amendment issues were “dragging” the Republican party down. “So I would just say the sooner that the public realizes that he’s not value added to the Republican Party, we can start looking at what this party used to be about. A party that didn’t insist upon this purity test. A party that is a fiscally conservative first of all, certainly, but we can have a fair and respectful debate within the party on issues related to the Second Amendment, to life and these other social issues, that have been dragging us down in areas that we have to compete in — mainly the suburbs and the collar counties.” In the last few months, Illinois Review has published several articles about Durkin using his political influence to target conservative grassroots candidates during the Illinois Primary. Sources also confirmed to Illinois Review that the IL GOP is blaming Durkin for the party’s postage discount abuse, where mailers “Paid for by the Republican Party of Illinois” were sent during the primary to viciously attack conservative Republican grassroots candidates that were challenging Durkin’s friends and political allies. And in January, before he resigned from the legislature, Durkin was the only Republican to join the Democrats, voting in favor of the assault weapons ban. Attorney and former Illinois Attorney General candidate Thomas DeVore has filed multiple lawsuits challenging the constitutionality of the assault weapons ban on the equal protection clause, and so far, Judges in Effingham and White Counties, and the 5th District Appellate Court view the equal protection clause as the most credible argument in the case – and a literal “silver bullet” for DeVore and his plaintiffs. In another blow to Illinois Gov. JB Pritzker’s assault weapons ban, and following the directive of the Appellate Court, White County Judge T. Scott Webb on Thursday granted DeVore’s motion for a temporary restraining order (TRO), halting the ban while the lawsuit proceeds. The lawsuit raises the same claims as the one filed in Effingham County, where Judge Joshua Morrison granted the first TRO and names Gov. JB Pritzker, State Senate President Don Harmon, D, Illinois House Speaker Christopher Welch, D, and Attorney General Kwame Raoul, D, as defendants. The lawsuit filed in White County by DeVore includes over 1,600 plaintiffs, including former Illinois State Senator and Republican nominee for governor Darren Bailey; 68 federal firearms dealers and covers 92 counties. On Tuesday, 5th District Appellate Court affirmed Effingham County’s TRO and goes beyond the original 866 plaintiffs in the original lawsuit, and is now binding precedent on all lower courts statewide.)

WASHINGTON POST
— COMMENT: Democrats say “Stolen Guns Are Fueling Violent Crime in the US.” I have had a FOID card since I was 20 years old in 1968. Of course, Illinois criminals know who the FOID card holders are in Illinois. That might encourage some criminals to avoid FOID card holders. That might encourage other criminals to invade the homes of FOID card holders to steal their firearms and ammunition. Of course, if/when semiautomatic firearms are registered in Illinois, Illinois criminals will know who has them.

— COMMENT: Democrats want to abolish the Second Amendment. As Democrats ever-increasingly destroy America, poverty and crime will ever-increasingly increase. Therefore, ever-increasingly, 911 response times will increase and Americans will need to buy more and more and more firearms for their self-defense.
https://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/2023/02/05/guns-bruen-supreme-court-second-amendment/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: When the Supreme Court ruled in 2008 that the Second Amendment protects individuals’ right to gun ownership, it emphasized the ability “of law-abiding, responsible citizens to use arms in defense of hearth and home.” When it expanded that decision last year in New York State Rifle & Pistol Association v. Bruen, the court noted that “ordinary, law-abiding citizens have a similar right to carry handguns publicly for their self-defense.”

FAST COMPANY
— What to do if you didn’t get promoted – Mita Mallick (COMMENT: IRS promoted me to GS-12 Step 1 (currently $92,279/year) when I was 25 in 1974, but no promotions after that. To transfer from IRS to GAO in 1980, GAO forced me to take a downgrade from GS-12 Step 5 (currently $104,583) to GS-9 Step 10 (currently $82,720/year), a $21,863/year (21%) in today’s dollars. GAO did not promote me back to GS-12 Step 5 until 1982. GAO promoted me to GS-13 (currently $109,732/year) in 1986, but no promotions after that. QUESTION: What could I have done, but I refused to do, to get a) promoted by IRS to GS-13, GS-14 (currently $129,671/year), GS-15 (currently $152,527/year), and Senior Executive Service (SES) (currently $183,500/year) by age 40 and b) promoted by GAO to GS-14, GS-15, and SES by age 40? ANSWER: I refused to become a Democrat. I refused to help my IRS and GAO superiors get rid of their employees who were Republican, White, male, and/or non-veteran who they had not promoted to GS-13 my age 25, to GS-14 by age 30, to GS-15 by age 35, and to SES by age 40. If I had been a Democrat, minority, and/or female, IRS and/or GAO would have promoted me to SES long before I was 40 because I had earned an MBA when I was 27, passed the CPA examination on my first attempt when I was 30, earned a master’s degree in accounting when I was 31, passed the Certified Internal Auditor examination on my first attempt when I was 32, and became a licensed CPA when I was 32.)

— Chicago GOP Declares War on Free Speech, Silences Conservative Voices and Bans Illinois Review Articles on Facebook Discussion Group (COMMENT: I should write a book about what anti-conservative leaders of the following have done since 2000 to stop me from sending out GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters and to stop their members from reading those newsletters: Illinois Republican Party, DuPage County Republican Central Committee, and Milton Township Republican Organization.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: But aside from casting sunlight on the inner workings of the Chicago GOP and the personal perspectives of its leaders, Illinois Review continues to publish an overwhelming majority of articles focused on conservative news and opinion – standing up for the grassroots, and challenging the establishment leadership of the IL GOP, who seem more concerned with maintaining their power and titles than actually winning and supporting the grassroots. Boulton and Fiedler remain fierce allies and defenders of embattled IL GOP chairman Don Tracy.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: “Illinois is much less affordable than the other Midwest states,” Gonzalez told The Center Square. “In general, it costs more to retire in Illinois than it does in most other states in the country.” Despite Illinois not taxing retirement income, general tax policy and lack of taxpayer friendliness were the main factors in Illinois’ low ranking, Gonzalez said. “Taxes are a huge part of why Illinois loses out to other states like Minnesota, North and South Dakota and Nebraska,” she said. “Special tax breaks for seniors and tax policy for retirement income just aren’t there in Illinois.” High sales taxes, high property taxes and high inheritance taxes are among the main reasons why Illinois came in 47th for affordability, she said.)

— FROM THE ARTICLE: The most egregious gun control policy is the new Illinois gun law that bans assault weapons and high-capacity magazines. The law allows people who owned assault weapons or high-capacity magazines before the law was passed to keep them — but only if they register their weapons with the Illinois State Police. This law is unconstitutional and violates both the Second and Fifth Amendments. Fortunately, a judge in Illinois has issued a temporary restraining order , preventing the implementation of the law — but only for the plaintiffs of the case that were before the judge.

DAILY SIGNAL
— Race Everywhere in Today’s America – Victor Davis Hanson
https://www.dailysignal.com/2023/02/03/race-everywhere-in-todays-america/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: In sum, class, not race, remains the best litmus test of being underprivileged in America. It is no longer synonymous with race. No wonder the identity politics industry now strains to attach prefixes such as “systemic” or “implicit” to “racism,” or “micro” to “aggression,” purportedly to ferret out bias that otherwise is not apparent. Pause to reflect that America is the only successful multiracial constitutional republic in history. To survive in an increasingly dysfunctional and hostile world abroad, the unique idea of the United States requires concord. But national cohesion is only possible through citizens subordinating their tribal interests to a common culture. Only then do they cease being automatons of warring tribes and collectives. As the world becomes ever scarier, Americans must—as Benjamin Franklin once warned—hang together, or most certainly they will soon all hang separately.)

Ever-increasingly, Democrats join up with America’s enemies to win their Second Civil War and get rid of Republicans once and for all.

McCarthy pointed out that slavery, defended by Southern Democrats, was the issue that brought about the Civil War. He called the war the “greatest challenge ever to our Constitution.” McCarthy said Joseph Rainey of South Carolina, the first black American elected to the House of Representatives, was a Republican. He suggested that the statues remind the Democratic Party’s true history. “If I was a Democrat, I wouldn’t be proud of their legacy, I wouldn’t be proud of their history, and I would want to change it, ” said McCarthy. “There’s not one Republican you have to take down.”)

— COMMENT: Democrats say “Freshman Rep. Delia Ramirez to give progressive response to State of the Union.” Who represents you in Congress? Things have gotten much worse for me congressionally. Democrat Ramirez currently represents me in congress. GAO works for Congress. In 1989, Republican Henry Hyde represented me. In 1989, he came to my defense against my Democrat GAO superiors. They had retaliated against me big time because in 1988 I had become an active member in a class action lawsuit that charged them with reverse discrimination, age discrimination, and retaliation. They had a) thrown me off audits of IRS, b) given me an adverse job assignment, c) given me unfair performance expectations, d) turned my subordinates against me, e) given me an unfair performance appraisal, and f) ranked me at the bottom of my coworkers for pay-for-performance purposes. Previously, they had a) kept me off audits of IRS 1980-1985, b) delayed my promotions to GS-11, GS-12, and GS-13, and c) forced me to take a $21,863 (21%) pay cut in today’s dollars to transfer from IRS to GAO in 1980, a downgrade from GS-12 Step 5, to GS-9 Step 10. After Hyde came to my defense, my Democrat GAO superiors’ retaliation against me diminished somewhat. But eight years later, they forced me to take their early retirement “offer.”

— Millennials and Money: 5 Simple Ways To Get Ahead of Your Peers Financially – HEATHER TAYLOR (COMMENT: What helped you get ahead financially? I earned job-related college degrees when I was 21, 27, 31, and 48. I earned job-related professional certifications when I was 30, 32, 41, 45, 47, and 48. I earned a job-related professional license when I was 32. I worked for the Post Office 1966-1969, Firestone Stores 1970-1972, IRS 1971-1980, and GAO 1980-1997. I always spent far less on immediate pleasures than my peers. Instead of renting, I bought a new town home in 1972 and condos in 1974 and 1976. My wife and I got married in 1978. We both worked, but in anticipation of having children, we spent money like we had only one paycheck. We always saved as much as we could for our retirement. Instead of renting, we bought a home in Wheaton in 1978 and we had one built in Wheaton in 1984. But according to my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes, I got ahead financially, because I avoided the draft. Because I benefitted from discrimination against minorities, females, younger people, LGBTQers, renters, non-Protestants, non-German Americans, and those whose ancestors have not been in America for a long time. Because the federal government grossly overpaid me. Because of my wife’s income. Because my wife and I gave up trying to have children, we did not adopt, and we did not become foster parents. Because my federal pension and health, dental, and vision insurance subsidies are far too generous. What do you think?)

WEEK
— COMMENT: Why are there so many unwanted pregnancies? Anti-conservative Democrats, Libertarians, Greens, Independents, and RINOs want Republicans to lose. They want Republican candidates and elected officials to dump the individual responsibility, traditional marriage/family, right to life, immigration, Second Amendment, illegal drugs, and equal opportunity (no race or gender based preference giving) planks in the Republican Party platform. I should write a book about the biggest anti-conservative leaders of the Illinois Republican Party, DuPage County Republican Central Committee, and Milton Township Republican Organization since 2000.

EMEA TRIBUNE
— Republicans Revive a Debate on Term Limits
https://emeatribune.com/republicans-revive-a-debate-on-term-limits/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: While Republicans tried to hold Democrats responsible for the failure, 40 Republicans also balked, and 30 of them were among the most senior Republicans in the House. That included Rep. Henry Hyde of Illinois, the chair of the Judiciary Committee, who won an ovation for his speech in opposition to the proposal. “I just can’t be an accessory to the dumbing down of democracy,” Hyde told his colleagues.)
