FROM ILLINOIS CENTER-LEFT LEANING SOURCES

CHICAGO TRIBUNE
— Democrats say “Illinois Democrats denounce as ‘deceitful’ a pipeline used in last year’s elections to right-wing local news sites.” Ever-increasingly, the mainstream news media acts as an arm of the Democrat, Libertarian, and Green parties.
https://www.chicagotribune.com/politics/ct-democrats-denounce-right-wing-newspapers-20230428-o6hs2xsihvgmvngqkxzyqldyyy-story.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: A publisher of far-right websites and mailings designed to look like newspapers created a special online portal for top Illinois GOP candidates and activists to directly seek favorable coverage during last year’s elections, according to a newspaper report that prompted state Democrats to denounce the actions as “deceitful” to voters. The Washington Post reported Thursday that Brian Timpone, an ally and business partner of right-wing radio talk show host Dan Proft, used a password-protected portal that allowed Republicans to pitch stories, provide questions for interviews, place campaign announcements and run “verbatim” op-eds on websites and mailings that are published by the Local Government Information Services organization.)
— Democrats crow that “Fox News ratings tumble after Tucker Carlson’s firing.” In 2002, I led a group that succeeded in forcing Wheaton to force Comcast to carry Fox News.

— Democrats acknowledge that “Schools are failing when it comes to telling parents the truth about student achievement. Most parents think that their children are learning at grade level because they’re getting A’s and B’s. They’re not, and schools are sending a mixed message about achievement.” Thanks to my outstanding Trinity Lutheran Grade School, Hope Lutheran Grade School, and Crete-Monee High School teachers, I got an ACT score of 24 and acceptance by UIC in 1966.

According to Wikipedia, “Carlson began his career in journalism as a fact-checker for Policy Review.” While I worked for GAO 1986-1997, I often worked as a fact-checker.

CRAIN’S CHICAGO BUSINESS
— Democrats say “String of losses sets Illinois GOP insiders against each other in fiery media blitz.” I should write a book about a) how Illinois Review under Fran Eaton and b) how Illinois Leader under Dan Proft treated me and treated my GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters.
https://www.chicagobusiness.com/greg-hinz-politics/conservative-news-site-illinois-review-critical-gop-insiders
(FROM THE ARTICLE: A kerfuffle among conservative Republicans is raising some eyebrows around Illinois — in some ways echoing what Democrats say about the Illinois GOP. At issue are a series of provocative pieces published recently by Illinois Review, a longtime right-leaning commentator on the state of Illinois politics whose ownership recently changed hands. Last week, for instance, it raised questions about whether conservative megadonor Dick Uihlein is getting his money’s worth out of big contributions to a political action committee run by conservative operative and radio talk show host Dan Proft. Earlier, it called for the resignation of state GOP Chairman Don Tracy, saying the state party’s miserable showing in the November general election — including the defeat of Proft- and Uihlein-backed gubernatorial hopeful Darren Bailey — did not warrant Tracy’s retention. It also has reported that an investigation is underway into whether postal rules were broken when Tracy allowed the party establishment’s candidate for governor, Richard Irvin, to use its postal permit to lower costs for mailing campaign literature. Tracy urged Illinois Review to back off. “They do seem to be trying to divide the party,” Tracy said an interview. “They seem to be attacking more Republicans than Democrats.” Proft responded with some of his trademark snark but declined substantive comment. “Got another ‘bombshell’ there, do you, Greg?” he said in an email. “You go ahead and run with it.” Jeanne Ives, a Proft ally who also is mentioned in recent Illinois Review articles, also has a sharp “no comment” statement: “I don’t read their garbage,” she emailed. But Illinois Review Publisher Scott Kaspar said the new owners’ objectives are pretty clear. “Exposing corruption is sort of our main goal,” Kaspar said in an interview, because corruption is one of the reason the party has done poorly in recent cycles. “We need to clean up our house, so we can do better at the polls.” Kaspar pointed to the post about Proft, which suggested that one reason a slate of candidates backed by Proft for the Lyons Township High School District board fell short in the March election is Proft’s People Who Play By the Rules PAC reported spending just $3,725.56 on their behalf in a quarter in which his Starfish Consulting was paid $75,000 by the PAC and firms operated by associates another $67,000. “It struck us as odd that something like 38 times more money went to consultants rather than candidates,” Kaspar said, though he conceded that some of the group’s spending was not quite clear. That criticism — Uihlein’s money being wasted — is similar to comments political aides to incumbent Democratic Gov. J.B. Pritzker made after GOP gubernatorial hopeful Darren Bailey lost by double digits to Pritzker last November, despite millions of dollars of attack ads against him spent by Proft’s PAC using Uihlein donations. Another Illinois Review article blasted Tracy for recently saying that, like it or not, Illinois Republicans will have to start promoting the use of mail ballots if they hope to beat Democrats. Tracy didn’t talk about that until after November’s defeat, the article said, and didn’t mention that Illinois Democrats have allocated millions of dollars to implement such programs, while Illinois Republicans are operating on a “shoestring budget.” Another target of reporting by the publication is Orland Park Mayor Keith Pekau. Pekau defeated Kaspar in the GOP primary for the 6th District congressional race last year. The two repeatedly have clashed in various settings, but Kaspar denied he’s using Illinois Review for a personal feud. One of Tracy’s predecessors as Illinois GOP chair, Pat Brady, said that, up to a point, Illinois Review and its new owners “have a point. Proft has had horrible results,” spending at least $130 million in the past couple of years on races for governor, Illinois Supreme Court judgeships and other losers, he said. But overall, the story behind the story may be no more complicated that a new publication trying to attract an audience and make money by attacking the party establishment, Brady continued, noting that Donald Trump and others have gained by such moves. Kaspar responded that, “You have people who understand what we’re doing and people who have something to hide.” Illinois Review in November announced its change in ownership from co-founder Fran Eaton to a group including Kaspar and conservative radio host Mark Vargas, who is the site’s editor. Update — Despite any claims to the contrary, there is “no basis in fact” that the party let Irvin use its postal permit, says Illinois GOP Executive Director Shaun McCabe.)

DUPAGE POLICY JOURNAL
— “We are thrilled with this year’s local election results and are very proud of whatever impact we had in producing them.” – Kevin Coyne

(FROM THE ARTICLE: Kevin Coyne, founder of the Safe Suburbs PAC, is celebrating the PAC”s achievements in Naperville in the April 4 election. Though the group’s endorsed candidates ‘faced a great disadvantage due to Naperville’s shifting political demographics, all 7 had very impressive finishes where 4 won seats on City Council and a 5th lost by less than 1 point.’ “Safe Suburbs USA started in Naperville in 2020 and largely in response to a local political trend that we found dismissive of police concerns and the warnings raised by the DuPage County and Will County SAs as to the SAFE T Act,” Coyne said on Twitter. “Since then, we have endorsed and aggressively supported 7 Naperville Council candidates. All 7 were Right-leaning non-incumbents running against largely Left-leaning candidates in a city that both Biden and Pritzker won by over 20 points each. Uphill battles to say the least.” Coyne trusts “These new councilmen, once paired with Mayor-elect and FOP endorsed Scott Wehrli, give Naperville an exceptionally strong pro-police council.” He said they “see no chance that this new majority will be dismissive of police concerns nor remain passive should future threats to public safety, such as the SAFE T Act, arise. “We are thrilled with this year’s local election results and are very proud of whatever impact we had in producing them. We look forward to future election successes, both in Naperville and throughout Chicagoland,” Coyne added. In the wake of the election Coyne, a former Naperville councilman, said it was “a very good night in Naperville and a couple of other communities for our supported candidates.” Safe Suburbs endorsed Josh McBroom, Meghna Bansal, Nag Jaiswal, and Nate Wilson for Naperville City Council. The council race featured a crowded field. In an updated report from Positively Naperville, McBroom won with 13,162 votes and 11.97% of the electorate. Wilson, who had a 41-lead over Bansal, also won with 10,430 and 9.49% of the vote. Other endorsees, Bansal and Jaiswal, lost. The campaign featured controversy after Coyne and others called out Naperville council member Theresa Sullivan over the Naperville Forward mailer for misleading voters. Sullivan runs the Naper Forward PAC, which supports leftist politics. Naperville mayor-elect Scott Wehrli, a part-time law enforcement officer, defeated councilman Benny White in the April 4 election. “We worked so hard to represent every voice in this community, and that’s been the amazing part of this journey — meeting so many wonderful people and learning so much about different groups, different cultures, different facets of this Naperville that we know that I never understood,” Wehrli said at his election party, DuPage Policy Journal previously reported. On his website, Wehrli said maintaining a safe, livable community was his first goal. “We work hard to be called one of the safest cities in America. Living without constant fear of street crime is a prime reason people live, move, shop and do business here,” Wehrli’s website reads. Safe Suburbs USA notes on its website that it “promotes public safety and the welfare of suburban residents throughout the USA by advocating and educating on issues relating to crime and its effect on suburban families. We recommend and promote agencies, candidates and programs which promote public safety and the rule of law.” The Naperville City Council will be sworn in on April 30.)

https://news.bloomberglaw.com/us-law-week/congress-should-repeal-special-immunity-it-gave-the-gun-industry
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Why shouldn’t a jury be allowed to decide if promoting high-power, large cartridge, weapons of war to the average consumer makes that product unreasonably dangerous when used to murder civilians? They can do so for virtually any other type of product in America where the entire industry isn’t given special immunity by Congress or another legislative body. Why is gun manufacturing entitled to this special exemption? Gun ownership is protected by the 2nd Amendment, but gun manufacturing is not. By simply removing this special shield against civil liability, we would force gun manufacturers to consider how they market their most lethal weapons, and to whom. They would have to think about whether to make guns with handprint or fingerprint technology (like an iPhone) so only the purchaser who passed a background check could use the weapon. No one’s constitutional rights would be impinged, and one would be affirmed—the 7th Amendment right to trial by jury—a guarantee that our Founders intended to be just as sacrosanct as the 2nd Amendment and all other freedoms inscribed in the Bill of Rights.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: Jim Zay, Chairman of the DuPage County Republican Party, is refusing to condemn fellow Republicans for their financial and material support of DuPage County Board Chair Deb Conroy. Zay’s comments come after Conroy, a well-known leftist who took controversial stances as a state representative, received campaign donations from prominent DuPage County Republicans. See the text of Zay’s letter addressing the donations below: . .Zay’s note to DuPage County Republicans comes after Republican DuPage County Board Member Sam Tornatore donated $1,000 to Conroy’s campaign coffers. Former DuPage County Board member Republican Donald Puchalski also donated $500 to Conroy. Both Tornatore and Puchalski donated to Conroy’s campaign at the same time after receiving financial support from GOP township organizations in Addison. Conroy has also won the favor of Republican Pete DiCianni whose Win Marketing was recently paid $1,230.71 by Conroy’s campaign. The firm provides political strategy and tactics, direct mail, web development and print services in aid of campaigns. DiCianni once said “You know what? (Deb Conroy) is my friend” while running against her for the chairman position in the DuPage County Board of Commissioners election. Zay is also a DuPage County Board Member.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: To better understand why the GOP fails again and again and again, focus your gimlet gaze on Illinois’ inept and foolish GOP. Then focus on the microcosm of DuPage County that is slowly turning blue for lack of O2. Recently, campaign donations made by Republican leaders to the campaign of far-left candidate for DuPage County Board, Deb Conroy, generated a warranted backlash against GOP leadership in DuPage County. In a desperate effort to curb the controversy, DuPage County Republican Chair Jim Zay sent a letter to DuPage County Republicans in which he criticized—not the GOP quislings—but those who criticized the quislings. You can’t make this stuff up.)

— Why students are not enrolling in higher education – Richard E. Vatz, Towson
https://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/2023/04/24/higher-education-enrollment-conservatives/
(FROM THE LETTER: In his April 20 op-ed, “Colleges get schooled by plummeting enrollment,” George F. Will was sanguine about lower enrollment in higher education because among its major causes is the politicization of the academy. As a professor who just retired from full-time professorship following nearly a half-century, I can tell you that he was 100 percent correct. I know many universities and many academic organizations whose humanities and social sciences are progressively biased beyond what even cynics estimate. I just left the National Communication Association because of its thoroughly anti-conservative stances and prejudices.)

— Democrats ask “Can’t make sense of your college financial aid package?” and say “Here’s help.” My father made just enough money to disqualify me for any kind of college financial aid. Because of that, between November of 1964 and September of 1969, the overwhelming focus of my life was earning money a) to pay for my UIC and NIU expenses and b) to buy new cars to get to/from work and school. I washed dishes 1964-1966, cleaned golf shoes, chipped slag, and pumped gasoline in 1966, and delivered mail 1966-1969. I worked as many hours that I could. That enabled me a) to pay for my UIC and NIU expenses; b) buy a new 1966 Pontiac Tempest Sprint in 1966, a new 1968 Oldsmobile 442 in 1967, and new 1969 Dodge Charger SE in 1968; and c) to graduate debt-free from NIU in August of 1970 with a bachelor’s degree in management and owning that Charger. However, my GPA suffered because I spent too much time working instead of studying. According to my critics/opponents, I had to work my way through college because I did not get any scholarships because I was not college material. I only just barely made it into the upper 20% of my high school class and my ACT score was only 24.

My Democrat IRS superiors and supervisors ignored, dismissed, belittled, wasted, demonized, denigrated, and condemned that. They did that because I was so many of the following: Republican, conservative, draft avoider, union member, grievance filer, White, male, Protestant, 100% German American, my ancestors had been in America since 1844, and I had been a Crete resident 1948-1972. Starting in 1972, I deducted those courses, and in 1978, they disallowed those courses. They falsely argued that the courses were not job related, that they did not help me carry out my job duties, that they were taken by me to get a job in the private sector and/or to qualify myself for a new trade or business, and that they were a distraction. They ignored the fact that the employee manual they had given me encouraged me to take the courses. They ignored the requirements of my position description the reason why I took the courses that I stated in my Loyola application.)

UNION BULLETIN
— Democrats ever-increasingly crow about their success in attracting LGBTQers to Illinois. How successful have Democrats been attracting LGBTQers to your county, to your township, to your municipality, and to your precinct? I should write a book about Democrat success in attracting LGBTQers to DuPage County, to Milton Township, to Wheaton, and to my precinct. LGBTQ-promoters have no use for, despise, if not hate those who do not promote LGBTQ.

FORBES
— Democrats say “How To Have An Authentic Job Search To Find A Company That Aligns With Your Values.” Democrats run the federal government. If you are not a Democrat or do not become a Democrat and you become a federal employee, the Democrats who run the federal government will not only assure that you will not have a successful career, they will waste your career and get rid of you. I never would have become a federal employee if my high school friend had not invited me to take the postal employment examination with him in 1966. That resulted in my accepting a job offer from the Post Office in 1966. Because my employment opportunities were bleak in 1970 because I was viewed as being draft bait, I took and passed the Federal Service Entrance Examination. That resulted in my accepting a job offer from IRS in 1971 because I was unemployed because my Firestone Store boss had rudely filed me because I had accepted a job offer from Oldsmobile. But Oldsmobile withdrew that job offer saying that it had just agreed to stop hiring Whites to settle an EEOC complaint.

GOPUSA ILLINOIS
— Political parties exist to help elect candidates who can and will defend and advance their platform. The Republican Party platform is conservative. The platform is not “Democrat Lite.” The Illinois Republican Party (IRP), DuPage County Republican Central Committee (DCRCC), and Milton Township Republican Organization (MTRO) exist to help elect candidates who can and will defend and advance the Republican Party platform. However, ever-increasingly, IRP, DCRCC, and MTRO leaders talk and/or act like they reject the individual responsibility, traditional marriage/family, right to life, immigration, illegal drugs, Second Amendment, and/or equal opportunity (no race or gender based preference giving) planks in the Republican Party platform. Ever-increasingly, they use the Republican Party’s “Big Tent” policy to get rid of platform Republicans like me, that is, to get rid of conservatives like me. Ever-increasingly, they talk and/or act like they are anti-conservative if not conservative-hating Democrat plants, Libertarian plants, Green plants, or RINOs. Ever-increasingly they take adverse actions against those like me who support the aforesaid planks. I should write a book about that. I would focus on IRP, DCRCC, and MTRO leaders a) who rudely ended my service as the Republican fundraiser for Wheaton Independence Day parades and fireworks in 2021, b) who rudely ended my bid to be appointed to fill the Wheaton City Council West District vacancy in 2019, c) who rudely gerrymandered my precinct in 2015, d) who rudely ended my membership on the Wheaton Chamber of Commerce Government Affairs Committee in 2011, e) who rudely ended my service as MTRO webmaster in 2010 and 2004, f) who rudely ended my service as an Illinois Center Right Coalition Steering Committee (ICRC) member in 2007, g) who rudely almost got ICRC to censure me for my GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters in 2006, h) who rudely ended my bid to serve as MTRO Treasurer in 2004, and i) who rudely ended my service on the American Association of Political Consultants Midwest Chapter board of directors in 2004. – Dave Diersen

https://abc7chicago.com/chicago-shootings-this-weekend-shooting-violence-police/13178934/

— Democrats say that “Chicago Mayor-elect Brandon Johnson pledges to ‘invest in our young people’ at Austin church event.” Who invested in you? My outstanding parents invested in me a) by having me baptized as a Missouri Synod Lutheran (MSL) in 1948, b) by sending me to Trinity Lutheran Grade School in Crete 1953-1961, c) by sending me to Hope Lutheran Grade School in Park Forest 1961-1962 to stay with the Missouri Synod, and d) by having me confirmed as a MSL in 1962.

I cleaned golf shoes, chipped slag, and pumped gasoline in 1966. I delivered mail in 1967, 1968, and 1969. The aforesaid enabled me a) to buy a 1958 Chevrolet Bel Air in 1964, b) to buy a new 1966 Pontiac Tempest Sprint in 1966, c) to pay for my UIC expenses 1966-1968, d) to buy a new 1968 Oldsmobile 442 in 1967, e) to buy a new 1969 Dodge Charger SE in 1968, f) to pay for my NIU expenses in 1969 and 1970, and g) to graduate debt-free from NIU in 1970 with a bachelor’s degree in management and owning that Charger.

My female Crete-Monee High School classmates did not see me as being “college material.” I could not run because I had a bone disease. My eyesight could not be corrected to 20/20. I had partial red/green color blindness. During my junior and senior years, and the summer in between, I washed dishes for the minimum wage in the basement of the S.S. Kresge in Chicago Heights. In my defense, I took college preparatory courses, I graduated in the upper 20% of my class, my ACT score was 24, I got accepted by UIC, and with the money that I earned washing dishes, I bought a new 1966 Pontiac Tempest Sprint in May of 1966.

My Democrat GAO superiors, supervisors, coworkers, and subordinates not only viciously demonized me, denigrated me, and condemned me because my wife and I gave up trying to have children, because we did not adopt, and because we did not become foster parents, they a) hinted/implied/argued/shouted that I lied about our efforts to have children and b) severely punished me for that. In 1989, to punish me, they threw me off audits of IRS, gave me an adverse job assignment, gave me unfair performance expectations, turned my subordinates against me, gave me an unfair performance appraisal, and ranked me at the bottom of my coworkers for pay-for-performance purposes. They hinted/implied/argued/shouted that if my wife and I had children, a) I would not have been able to pass the CPA examination on my first attempt in 1979, earn a master’s degree in accounting from DePaul in 1980, pass the Certified Internal Auditor examination on my first attempt in 1981, become a licensed CPA in 1981, or get promoted in 1986 and b) my wife and I would not have been able to have a house built in Wheaton in 1984, my wife would not have been able to earn a bachelor’s degree in finance from DePaul in 1986, and I would not have been able to buy a 1962 Impala SS collector car in 1989. I should write a book about the aforesaid. Better yet, I should sue my Democrat GAO superiors, supervisors, coworkers, and subordinates. I would focus on those who had children and/or had spouses who had little or no income and who blamed that for all their problems.

Nancy Mace, R-S.C., who has emerged as one of few House Republicans urging her colleagues to find a more moderate stance on abortion, warned that Republicans will “lose huge” in 2024 if states keep passing restrictive abortion bans.” What if the Republican Party platform was amended to simply say that it opposes the promotion of abortion?

If you have life experiences — could be tragic, could be joyful — that give you a helpful perspective on the human condition that others might share, we’d be interested in talking with you.” – Dave Diersen

— Democrats say “U.S. Postal Service hiring for multiple positions at Chicago, suburban locations.” The Democrats who ran the Park Forest Post office in 1966 hired me because they could not find a qualitied Democrat, minority, female, or veteran who would take the job. I had never used pot. I had passed the postal employment examination. I had a clean driving record. I had graduated from Crete-Monee High School in the upper 20% of my class. My ACT score was 24. I was a UIC student. I owned a 1966 Pontiac Tempest Sprint. They hired me notwithstanding my being a conservative, Republican, draft avoider, Protestant (Missouri Synod Lutheran), 100% German American, my ancestors had been in America since 1844, and I had been a Crete resident since 1948. They expected me to become a Democrat, but I did not.

— Democrats say that Brandon Johnson tells Chicago convention that “days ahead will always be better.” I should write a book about how my career opportunities in the federal government decreased and how my advancement opportunities in the Milton Township Republican Organization (MTRO) decreased. As my Democrat Post Office, IRS, and GAO superiors came under ever-increasing pressure from Democrat politicians to get rid of their Republican employees, they took more and more and more adverse actions against me to get rid of me. As my MTRO leaders came under ever-increasing pressure from anti-conservative and conservative-hating Democrat plant, Libertarian plant, Green plant, and RINO leaders of the DuPage County Republican Central Committee and the Illinois Republican Party to get rid of conservatives, they took more and more and more adverse actions against me.

CHICAGO TRIBUNE
— Democrats say “Brandon Johnson’s win as mayor furthers Democratic leftward tilt as party examines big tent philosophy.” Political parties exist to help elect candidates who can and will defend and advance their platform. The Democrat Party platform is liberal. The Republican Party platform is conservative. Ever-increasingly, the leaders of the Illinois Republican Party are anti-conservative if not conservative-haters. I should write a book about that.

Politics is nasty/vicious.

CHAMPAIGN/URBANA NEWS GAZETTE
— Democrats say “Uninformed American public bears part of the blame.” My critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes are uninformed. I should write a book about those who are the most uninformed. I would focus on those who have taken the most/biggest adverse actions against me. I would focus on those a) who do not read my GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters, b) who crow that they do not read the newsletters, and/or c) who do everything that they can to stop me from sending the newsletters out and/or to stop everyone from reading the newsletters. I would focus on those who have little or no experience working for Democrats, working with Democrats, and/or supervising Democrats. While I worked for the Democrats who ran the federal government for almost 30 years, I gained tremendous experience working for Democrats, working with Democrats, and supervising Democrats. I would focus on my critic/opponents who are the following: a) leaders of the Illinois Republican Party, b) DuPage County Republican Central Committee, and Milton Township Republican Organization, b) Republican leaders of Illinois, DuPage County, Milton Township, and Wheaton, c) Republican candidates on ballots in my precinct, d) religious leaders, and conservative leaders. I would focus on my critics/opponents a) who have never lived outside of DuPage County and/or b) who have never worked outside of DuPage County. I lived outside of DuPage County for almost 30 years (24 in Crete, 4 in Chicago, and 2 in University Park) and I worked outside of DuPage County for 33 years (25 in Chicago, 5 in Chicago Heights, 2 in Harvey, and 1 in Joliet).

— Democrats say “Belief in every student’s potential is key to good teaching.” When I was young, I was not viewed as being “college material” Neither of my parents had attended college. My father was only the first of my ancestors to earn a high school diploma. My mother never attended high school. I had a bone disease that stopped me from running. My eyesight could not be corrected to 20/20. I had partial red/green color blindness. Nevertheless, I took college preparatory courses in high school, got into the upper 20% of my class, got an ACT score of 24, got accepted by UIC, worked my way through college, and earned a bachelor’s degree in management from NIU in 1970 when I was 21 years old.

CHICAGO READER
— Democrats ever-increasingly glorify and praise those who broke pot laws. I never used pot and I never will. According to Democrats, my not using pot gave me a tremendous unfair advantage in life. The Post Office hired me in 1966 when I was 18 years old instead of pot users. IRS hired me in 1971 and promoted me in 1972, 1973, and 1974 instead of pot users. GAO hired me in 1980 and promoted me in 1986 instead of pot users.

— The Biden admin’s new rule will punish people with high credit scores – Tucker Carlson (COMMENT: How much success have Democrats had in importing people to your county, to your township, to your municipality, and to your precinct who have demographics that vote for Democrats? I should write a book about their success in DuPage County, in Milton Township, in Wheaton, and in my precinct.)
https://www.foxnews.com/opinion/tucker-carlson-biden-admins-new-rule-punish-people-high-credit-scores
(FROM THE ARTICLE: But the defining strategic insight of the modern Democratic Party is they don’t really need to convince anyone of anything. What matters is demographics. To import enough people from elsewhere, people who are financially dependent on you in order to live. That’s the story of the state of California. That’s why California changed. It’s why Texas is changing, but it’s also happening at the local level all over the country. Democrats have realized that they win the vote in virtually every major city, but the suburbs remain contested and that matters because suburban voters like school boards and state legislators and, of course, members of Congress. So, if you want total control over the entire country, you need demographic change everywhere, including in the suburbs.

https://www.realclearpolicy.com/articles/2023/04/20/why_poverty_persists_a_critical_look_at_matthew_desmonds_analysis_894908.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The only way to help the poor is to create more of wealth through productive action, not redistribute what we have at the moment. If redistribution, not wealth-creation, were relied on to help the poor since the 1800s, we would all still be, at best, subsistence farmers. Instead of instilling unearned guilt, we should advocate returning to the source of prosperity and poverty elimination, economic liberty.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: Political operative Andrew Boucher prevailed by a 272-236 margin on the convention’s second ballot over activist Cynthia Jones. . .The closely fought convention laid bare the divisions within the local party between those who espouse a more hardline vision for the GOP, embodied by former President Donald Trump, and those who want move in a new direction.

https://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2023/apr/21/looting-as-way-of-life/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: As for the street version of looting, Chicago’s next mayor, Brandon Johnson, refused to strongly condemn rioting in his city. Hundreds of “youths” rampaged downtown, attacking tourists and smashing things. But the mayor-elect seemed more worried that the little rascals might have become unpopular. “In no way do I condone the destructive activity we saw in the Loop and lakefront this weekend,” he said. “It is unacceptable and has no place in our city. However, it is not constructive to demonize youth who have otherwise been starved of opportunities in their own communities.” It’s not their fault, you see. In 2020, Mr. Johnson was interviewed after looters ransacked dozens of stores in Chicago’s Magnificent Mile. The young newswoman repeatedly gave Mr. Johnson a chance to decry the lawlessness. But he would have none of it. Instead, he ranted against — you guessed it — corporations that make “profit.” You know, the ones that manufacture or sell things that make modern life possible. One of those awful corporations, Walmart, is closing four Chicago stores because they are losing too much money to thieves and are unable to protect employees and customers from violent criminals. Mr. Johnson insisted that the mobs of teens and 20-somethings cleaning out stores just want to be able to “eat.” That’s why they steal those yummy cigarettes, beer, jewels, Coach purses and smartphones. The same goes for a dozen looters who ransacked a Louis Vuitton store in nearby Oak Brook, Illinois, last year, making off with $100,000 in merchandise. They just want to eat, too. More and more companies are showing that they have finally had it with crime-ridden cities.)

POLITICO ILLINOIS
— Democrats say “Bailey talks to Trump about Bost’s seat.”
https://www.politico.com/newsletters/illinois-playbook/2023/04/21/bailey-talks-to-trump-about-bosts-seat-00093239
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Darren Bailey, the former Republican candidate for governor, talked to former President Donald Trump on Wednesday about a potential run for Congress against Rep. Mike Bost in Illinois’ downstate 12th District. Bailey was at Trump’s Mar-a-Lago resort for a fundraiser for Louisiana governor candidate Jeff Landry and was able to buttonhole Trump, according to a person familiar with their meeting. It would be yuge: Bailey and Bost both lean right, so a primary would rally Republicans to the polls next year. There has been talk in Republican circles for months that Bailey might challenge the Republican congressman from Murphysboro. Bost is girding for a fight. He raised nearly $414,000 in the past quarter ending in March, according to Federal Election Committee reports. It’s a huge amount for Bost, who has had next to no primary competition since he took office in 2015. Bailey’s story: He’s a former state representative and state senator who won the GOP gubernatorial primary in 2022 after Democratic Gov. JB Pritzker and the Democratic Governors Association spent millions to paint him as an extremist opposed to abortion. The former president also endorsed Bailey. That rallied the right in the GOP primary, leaving Aurora Mayor Richard Irvin, a moderate Republican, in the dust. In the General Election, Pritzker continued to hammer Bailey, saying he wasn’t a fit for Illinois. Bailey, meanwhile, tried, unsuccessfully, to link Pritzker to Chicago’s crime problems, though he says Democrats’ mail-in ballot efforts ultimately did him in. Pritzker won 55 percent to 42 percent.)

— ‘Freedom Caucus’ Republicans say Democrats’ policies limit opportunity – Andrew Hensel (COMMENT: Yes, but what about choices while you are in high school? What about taking the best job that you can get while you are in high school like I did? How many of today’s teenagers do what I did? I washed dishes four evenings a week and Saturdays for the minimum wage in the basement of the S.S. Kresge in Chicago Heights during my junior and senior years at Crete-Monee High School and full-time during the summer of 1965 in between. That enabled me to buy a new 1966 Pontiac Tempest Sprint in May of 1966. My critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes have all made it very clear that they never took bad jobs like I did. Either they did not have to take any jobs because their parents had lots of money or, if they did take jobs, they were good jobs.)

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

— Supreme Court poised to clarify employers’ obligations to workers observing the Sabbath – Alex Swoyer (COMMENT: If I sought a government office or a political office, my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes would stress that I volunteered to work each and every Sunday while I worked for the Park Forest Post Office 1966-1969 and that I did work almost each and every Sunday. That extra money helped me a) pay for my college expenses at UIC 1966-1968 and at NIU 1969-1970, b) buy a new 1968 Oldsmobile 442 in 1967, c) buy a new 1969 Dodge Charger SE in 1968, and d) afford to go on spring breaks in Florida in 1969 and 1970.

AMERICAN GREATNESS
— America Is a Land of Systemic Justice – Jeffrey H. Anderson (COMMENT: I should write a book about exceptions. I would focus on those who have been denied their 7th Amendment rights because of their bad jury appeal because of their bad demographics. Those bad demographics are conservative Republican, White, male, older, non-poor, non-veteran, Christian, Protestant, German American, and having ancestors who have been in America for a long time. I would not have been denied my 7th Amendment rights if I had been liberal, Democrat, minority, female, non-Protestant, non-German America, and/or if my ancestors had not been America for a long time. Further, the adverse actions that I have sued over would not have been taken against me if I had been the aforesaid.)

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