— Victims wanted — no experience necessary, apply within – J.A. Frascino (COMMENT: Ever-increasingly, Democrats shout at those who are the following that they are victims of Republicans: minority, female, younger, LGBTQ, veteran, unmarried, renters, those who have less money than others, those who have financial, health, and/or other problems, non-Christian, non-Protestant, non-Italian American non-German American, those whose ancestors have not been in America for a long time, citizens of foreign countries, criminals, boozers, gamblers, stoners, etc.)
https://www.americanthinker.com/blog/2023/01/victims_wanted__no_experience_necessary_apply_within.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: When it’s not creating social injustices to overcome, the Left is busy creating victims to maintain its voter base. In contemporary America, the Democratic Party voter base is composed primarily of individuals who perceive themselves to be disadvantaged, disenfranchised, marginalized, or in some fashion, left out. They feel, in some sense, victimized. With the actual numbers of those truly victimized declining markedly in recent decades, the party needs to perpetuate perceived victimhood to maintain its political appeal. The party excels in generating victims over a broad spectrum of societal factions through identity politics and its D-E-I agenda. People of color. Victims of white privilege. Any failings they may experience are due solely to an oppressive social structure based in white supremacy. They are entitled to equity-based advancement and, as now proposed in California, reparations, in return for loyalty at the ballot box. Women. Victims of misogyny and patriarchy, even though they now surpass males in educational achievement and the number of women in the workforce now equals or slightly exceeds the number of men. The overturning of Roe v. Wade has exacerbated their victimhood. Access to safe abortion is a human right! Women lacking access to abortion are victims. Aborted fetuses are not — they can’t vote. “My body, my choice!“ is the mantra. One wonders what “my body, my choice” has to do with a fetus’s body? Does “my body, my choice” sanction suicide? The LGBTQ community. They are victims of heterosexual bigotry (although being homosexual didn’t seem to hold back Alexander the Great, Leonardo da Vinci, Tim Cook, Oscar Wilde, Elton John, etc.). Under wokeism’s exalting of gender dysphoria, 33% of students at liberal arts colleges now identify as LGBTQ. 21% of Gen Z are self-declared LGBTQ. The incidence of those who identify as something other than hetero has risen from 3.5% in 2012 to 7.1% in the general public. Not all this sharp escalation can be reasonably attributed to an increased comfort with “coming out,” but is more certainly a consequence of woke activism. Our youth. Herein lies the greatest source of potential victims. First, strip them of societal connectivity. Debase America, patriotism, religion, family structure, gender identity, even commitment to a first name. Turn them all into “Rolling Stones” — “on their own, with no direction home, like a complete unknown.” Make them insecure and vulnerable. Then coddle and indulge them. Teach them that the slightest affronts are catastrophes. Teach them to flee from microaggressions to safe spaces. Suspend classes and postpone finals following Trump’s election. Create a generation of victimized snowflakes who can turn only to a nurturing political elite for protection. It’s working. Joe Biden garnered 65% of Gen Z votes. Illegal immigrants. They are all asylum-seeking victims of political prosecution and/or human rights violations in their native lands. No. They are all potential Democratic voters, at least this generation. Criminals. Victims of the social system. Incarceration only leads to recidivism — and inmates can’t vote. Prosecutorial leniency is the better option. Whites. Mainstream whites are not victims. However, woke preaching teaches them that their success is unearned and inequitable, a product of white privilege and unconscious bias. This results in a cadre of guilt-ridden, virtue-signaling whites — today’s liberals — who repent by supporting the woke progressive agenda. Marginalized white residents of rural areas such as Appalachia also do not qualify for victimhood. Possessed of white privilege, it is only through their own failings that they are underachievers. They have to be written off as irredeemable MAGA voters. In 21st-century America, victimhood is largely a state of mind. If Prince Harry and Meghan can be victims, anyone can! All the party need do to lock in its base is keep the glass half empty for those inclined to be dissatisfied or dissident on the one hand, while offering them “hope and change” with the other. That leaves it free to pursue any inane policy it chooses. Zero CO2 emissions by 2050, anyone?)

BIZ PAC REVIEW
— ‘A little tear’: MacCallum predicts how Statue of Liberty would react to migrant ‘mayhem’ in NYC – Chris Donaldson (COMMENT: Ever-increasingly, Democrats, Libertarians, Greens, Independents, and RINOs promote illegal immigration and paint illegals as being GOD-LIKE.)
https://www.bizpacreview.com/2023/01/14/a-little-tear-maccallum-predicts-how-statue-of-liberty-would-react-to-migrant-mayhem-in-nyc-1324765/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Fox News host Martha MacCallum reacted to a whistleblower account of illegal immigrants who are housed in a swanky New York City hotel being picky about their free gourmet food and spending their time drinking, getting high, having sex and engaging in domestic violence by suggesting that such behavior would bring a tear to the Statue of Liberty’s eye. . .And I’m thinking there’s a little tear coming down the Statue of Liberty’s head when she hears that the food is not exactly what they would like and there is mayhem going on in these hotels, where people are also, according to this whistleblower, having sex in the hallways, getting into fights, domestic abuse is taking place,” she said. . .On Wednesday’s edition of “The Ingraham Angle,” Rodriguez shared a video of trash bags of uneaten, fresh “good food” that is rotting because the picky “migrants don’t want to eat them.” “They said they don’t like it,” he said of the discarded dinners. “This is all food that is going to waste. This is insane.” “The chaos that we see at the Row today is [caused] by migrants being drunk, drinking all day, smoking marijuana [and] consuming drugs,” Rodriguez added, noting that the hotel is struggling with an explosion of “domestic violence” among the illegals with young people “having sex in the stairs,” and fighting with hotel security personnel. “The form in which they keep their rooms is horrendous. They don’t clean it, they don’t fold their clothes. They’re hoarding clothes, they’re hoarding whatever they can hoard,” he said, explaining that the employees have lost control over the hotel and the migrants act like they own the place. “There’s no accountability.” “The ones that have all the power are the migrants. The hotel workers lost their power in the hotel,” Rodriguez said.)

They did NOT force me to retire because I fail/refused to carry out their preference-giving orders. I should write a book about the tremendous preference that I gave my Democrat GAO subordinates who were minority, female, younger, veteran, non-Protestant, non-German American, and/or those whose ancestors had not been in America for a long time.

MODERN PATRIOTS
— Jonathan Turley Takes Biden Apart Over Classified Documents and Corvette Standard (COMMENT: I have owned my 1972 Corvette since 1971. I should write a book about my Democrat IRS and GAO superiors, supervisors, coworkers, and subordinates who demonized, denigrated, and condemned Corvettes and Corvette owners the most.)
https://modernpatriots.com/jonathan-turley-takes-biden-apart-over-classified-documents-and-corvette-standard
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Biden responded to this with a horrible response, claiming that the classified documents were kept next to his Corvette. “My Corvette is in a locked garage okay?” It’s not like they’re out on the streets. Jonathan Turley, a George Washington Law School professor, was moved by this. Biden was ridiculed for his absurd response. He said, “The corvette standards are not in classified protocols ” and observed, “The White House counsel could now cite the corvette’s long-standing slogan: Like a car but better.” . . . It is amazing that Joe Biden would act like being right next to his Corvette makes him cool. He took who knows how many classified papers and had them scattered all over the place, including in insecure locations. How could this man ever comment on President Donald Trump, who was granted the right to presidential records and kept them in a vault in his home? This was crazy! Here’s Joe Biden pulling his Corvette from the garage where it was kept in a 2020 campaign video. As you can see, he has boxes on the right and storage space to his left. This is where classified documents were stored. It is a heap of junk, and there’s no place you would want classified documents open to the streets. Do they sit next to an old broken lamp? This gives Joe great assurance about the “Corvette Standard.”)

— The Death of Merit – Scott Hogenson (COMMENT: My Democrat IRS and GAO superiors were furious when I did the following because it made it more difficult for them to promote Democrat minorities and females over me who had not earned job-related master’s degrees and professional certifications and licenses. I earned an MBA from Loyola in 1976 when I was 27 years old. I passed the CPA examination on my first attempt in 1979. I earned a master’s degree in accounting from DePaul in 1980. I passed the Certified Internal Auditor examination on my first attempt in 1981. I became a licensed CPA in 1981. I became a Certified Fraud Examiner in 1990, Government Financial Manager in 1994, Financial Services Auditor in 1996, and Forensic Accountant in 1997. I earned a master’s degree in financial markets and trading from IIT in 1997.)
https://townhall.com/columnists/scotthogenson/2023/01/14/the-death-of-merit-n2618106
(FROM THE ARTICLE: America has always been a land of opportunity. That’s because our nation was founded as a meritocracy, the wellspring of excellence. This concept is central to American exceptionalism. The Declaration of Independence and the Constitution were written in a time when almost the entire world was governed by systems of monarchy, absolutism or outright dictatorships that rarely, if ever, recognized individual merit. In this regard, America’s founding was indeed exceptional. Leftists detest America’s meritocracy. The reason is simple: recognizing merit means there will be winners and losers, a fact that motivates all of us to try harder with a belief in and reliance upon oneself. Those who exhibit greater merit – through hard work, resourcefulness, perseverance, innate aptitude and so forth – usually enjoy more success. Meritocracy motivates us to individualism and excellence, and is hardwired into the DNA of the human race. The polar opposite of meritocracy is equality of outcome, which requires the entire society, save for political and cultural elites, to exist at the lowest common denominator. It is the foundation of socialist and communist dictatorships, enforced through violence, because totalitarians know that living life at the lowest common denominator is contrary to human nature and natural law. It is no secret that merit is not now, nor has it ever been, universally recognized. The first lesson my father taught me as a very young child was “life isn’t fair,” and time has proved him correct. But the periodic unfairness of life doesn’t mean meritocracies are bad. To paraphrase Winston Churchill, meritocracies are the worst form of society except for all the others that have been tried.)

I ever-increasingly complained about political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, and age discrimination while I worked for GAO 1980-1997, IRS 1971-1980, and the Post Office 1966-1969.

My Democrat GAO superiors a) forced me to take their early retirement “offer” in 1997 when I was 49 years old, b) never promoted me beyond GS-13, c) delayed my promotions to GS-11, GS-12, and GS-13, d) always ranked me in the bottom half of my coworkers for pay-for-performance purposes, e) forced the GAO manager to retire in 1987 who had promoted me in 1986, gotten me assigned to audits of IRS in 1986, and arranged for my transfer from IRS in 1980, f) kept me off audits of IRS for all but 3 of the almost 18 years that I worked for GAO, and g) 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, to transfer from IRS to GAO in 1980. My Democrat IRS superiors a) never promoted me beyond GS-12, b) disallowed my education deductions in 1978, c) forced the IRS manager to transfer to Texas in 1975 who had promoted me in 1974, 1973, and 1972, and d) disallowed my travel vouchers in 1974.

None of them lived in slave states. None of them were employers. The men worked in brick factory, were farmers, operated a hardware store, and worked in the office of a chemical plant. The women were homemakers. None of them owned slaves. None of them directly benefitted from slavery. None of them fought for the Confederate Army.

https://abc7chicago.com/illinois-sheriffs-assault-weapons-ban-weapon-bans-2023-gun-laws/12699694/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: A growing cadre of sheriffs in the Chicago area – in McHenry, DeKalb, Kane, DuPage, La Salle, Grundy, and Kankakee counties – have publicly written that they will not enforce the Protect Illinois Communities Act, saying it violates the constitutional right to bear arms. . .DuPage County Sheriff Jim Mendrick is among the most recent law enforcement chief to say he and his deputies won’t be checking to make sure legal gun owners have registered their weapons with the state. The sheriff said they won’t be arresting and holding law abiding gun owners in jail for not complying with the law. However, the DuPage County’s Board president publicly disagrees. She led a vote to ban assault weapons across the county after the Fourth of July massacre in Highland Park. “These are folks that are entrusted by the public to enforce the law. They don’t get to choose which laws they enforce. They must enforce what we’ve written into the code — the General Assembly, signed by the governor, and they will do so,” said Governor JB Pritzker. . .As sheriffs in DuPage County, and elsewhere, take sides, the new gun law is nearly guaranteed to be challenged in court.)

That day, the Board voted to support a state ban on assault weapons and high-capacity magazines. Illinois Public Act 102-1116 accomplishes those two goals. As Chair of the DuPage County Board, I stand behind the legislation passed to ban assault weapons. As Governor Pritzker has said, ‘You don’t get to choose which laws you comply with in the state of Illinois.’ And I believe, in DuPage County, we should not be playing politics with state laws.” Ever-increasingly, Illinois Democrats erode Second Amendment rights.

George Santos inspired no shortage of suspicion during his 2022 campaign, including in the upper echelons of his own party, yet many Republicans looked the other way.” Ever-increasingly Democrats, Libertarians, Greens, and RINOs and other anti-conservatives pressure Republican organizations to promote candidates who promote LGBTQ, if not are LGBTQers themselves. I should write a book about how the Illinois Republican Party, DuPage County Republican Central Committee, and Milton Township Republican Organization have responded to that.

— FRONT PAGE: Even a Little Alcohol Can Harm Your Health. Recent research makes it clear that any amount of drinking can be detrimental. – Dana G. Smith (COMMENT: I have never been a drinker. Many, if not most of my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes are/were big drinkers. I should write a book about them. I would focus on those who have taken the most/biggest adverse actions against me. I would focus on my Democrat GAO superior who took the most/biggest adverse actions against me. He forced me to suffer a $21,863/year pay cut in today’s dollars to transfer from IRS to GAO in 1980 when I was 31 years old. He delayed my promotions to GS-11, GS-12, and GS-13 and stopped me from getting any more promotions. He kept me off audits of IRS for all but 3 (1986-1988) of the almost 18 years that I worked for GAO. He always gave me unfair job assignments, performance expectations, and performance appraisals. He always turned my superiors, supervisors, coworkers, and subordinates against me. He always ranked me in the bottom half of my coworkers for pay-for-performance purposes. If he had not gone on extended sick leave because of his heavy drinking 1985-1987, he would have succeeded in a) stopping me from being assigned to any audits of IRS in 1986 and b) stopping me from getting promoted to GS-13 in 1986. He disapproved of my demographics, especially that I was conservative, Republican, draft-avoider, Protestant, 100% German American, my ancestors had been in America since 1844, I lived in Crete 1948-1972, and I lived in Wheaton since 1978. He was especially envious of my wife’s income and her job travel that enabled us to stay at many luxury resorts and visit many national parks 1978-1992. He stressed to my superiors that my wife and I gave up trying to have children, we did not adopt, and we did not become foster parents. He hinted/implied/argued/shouted that we had lied about our wanting to have children and that we were just selfish rich DINKs. He disapproved of my bringing with me when I transferred from IRS almost 12 years of federal seniority and many unused vacation days and sick days. He was especially furious that I got almost 3 years of full-time federal seniority while I worked for the Post Office 1966-1969 part-time. He crowed to me that he had succeeded in getting Congress to end that seniority benefit. He was furious that because of my federal seniority that I earned working for the Post Office and IRS, I got a preferred corner office in 1990 and was eligible to take early retirement in 1993 when I was 45 years old )

In my defense, while I am all of the aforesaid and my ancestors have been in America since 1844, all my ancestors have always lived in northeast Illinois and none of them discriminated against anyone. None of my ancestors attended college. My father was the first of my ancestors to earn a high school diploma. My mother never attended high school. My grandfather on my mother’s side fought the Germans in WWI. My uncles on my mother’s side fought the Germans in WWII. My father would have fought the Germans in WWII if he had not been 4-F. My ancestors who were men worked in a brick factory, were farmers, sold horses, operated a hardware store, and/or worked in the office of a chemical plant. The women were homemakers.

My critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes approve of the aforesaid, if not applaud the aforesaid.

I am conservative, Republican, White, male, old (born in 1948), non-veteran, married, non-poor, Protestant, 100% German America, and my ancestors have been in America since 1844.

I would focus on my critics/opponents who are past and present a) leaders of the Illinois Republican Party, DuPage County Republican Central Committee, and Milton Township Republican Organization, b) Republican leaders of Illinois, DuPage County, Milton Township, Wheaton, Wheaton Park District, and Wheaton Chamber of Commerce, c) unsuccessful Republican candidates on ballots in my precinct and their major donors, political consultants, fundraisers, pollsters, campaign managers, campaign staff members, and campaign volunteers, d) conservative leaders, e) religious leaders, and f) those who I have sued. Would my critics/opponents be satisfied if the aforesaid planks were modified to say that the Republican Party opposes the promotion of dependency on government and charity, LGBTQ, abortion, mass/illegal immigration, erosion of Second Amendment rights, booze, gambling, pot, and other vices, patronage, political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination (including Affirmative Action, Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, CRT, 1619, BLM, reparation, wokeness/wokeism), and age discrimination?)

GOPUSA ILLINOIS
— What does the future hold for you? – Dave Diersen
http://www.gopillinois.com

From what I see spending 10+ hours each and every day putting GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters together and sending them out, the more of the following that you are, the more bleak that your future is: conservative, Republican, White, male, older, heterosexual, Christian, Protestant, Italian American, German America, and/or if your ancestors have been America for a long time.

Ever-increasingly, the more of the aforesaid that you are, the more that Democrats, Libertarians, Greens, Independents, and RINOs demonize you, denigrate you, and condemn you as being a White supremacist, Nazi, KKK member, hater, racist, sexist, bigot, and even worse things who should be gotten rid of once and for all.

Ever-increasingly, the more of the aforesaid that you are, the less that Republican, conservative, and religious organizations come to your defense.

Ever-increasingly, Democrats are succeeding in replacing those who have demographics that vote for Republicans with those who have demographics that vote for Democrats.

Demographics that vote for Republicans include: conservative, White, male, older, heterosexual, healthy, non-poor, Christian, Protestant, Italian American, German America, and/or if your ancestors have been America for a long time.

Demographics that vote for Democrats include: liberal, moderate, minority, female, LGBTQ, disabled, poor, non-Christian, non-Protestant, non-Italian American, non-German America, and/or those whose ancestors have not been America for a long time.

Overwhelmingly, those who are in America illegally have demographics that vote for Democrats. Ever-increasingly, they will vote for Democrats.

Political parties exist to help elect candidates who can and will defend and advance their platform. The Republican Party platform is conservative.

How soon will Democrats, Libertarians, Greens, Independents, and RINOs succeed in getting the Republican Party a) to officially dump the following planks in its platform: individual responsibility, traditional marriage/family, right to life, immigration, Second Amendment, illegal drugs, and/or equal opportunity (no race or gender based preference giving); b) to officially dump party leaders who support the aforesaid planks; c) to officially dump voters who support the aforesaid planks; and d) to officially dissolve the Republican Party?

CENTRAL ILLINOIS PROUD
— COMMENT: Democrats say “Jeffries to GOP on Santos: Clean up your house.” To get preference, people falsely claim to be members of groups that get preference. Ever-increasingly, under the Democrats and under the RINOs, members of the following groups get preference: minority, female, younger, LGBTQ, veteran, non-Protestant, non-Italian American, non-German American, and those whose ancestors have not been in America for a long time. To give preference to one group is to discriminate against another group. Therefore, ever-increasingly, Democrats and RINOs discriminate against members of the following groups: White, male, older, heterosexual, non-veteran, Italian American, German American, and those whose ancestors have been in America for a long time. I should write a book about the aforesaid.

UNIVERSITY OF ILLINOIS CHICAGO
— UIC students, faculty and staff can report their experiences by using the Bias Reporting Tool (COMMENT: Ever-increasingly, Democrats, Libertarians, Greens, Independents, and RINOs promote bias if not hatred against Republicans who share Trump’s demographics: conservative, White, male, older, non-poor, married, gun owner, Protestant, German American, and/or those whose ancestors have been in America for a long time. I should write a book about the aforesaid in Wheaton, in Milton Township, in DuPage County, and in Illinois.)
https://today.uic.edu/bias-reporting-tool/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: In an effort to make UIC a place grounded in inclusion, equity, diversity and justice, UIC students, faculty and staff can report their experiences by using the Bias Reporting Tool. The Office of the Dean of Students, Office of Diversity and/or the Office for Access and Equity will follow up to offer support and resources to those who have reported bias, discrimination or harassment. By reporting an incident that was experienced or witnessed, UIC is able to gain valuable information about issues impacting the campus community. Forms can be submitted anonymously.

ILLINOIS STATE RIFLE ASSOCIATION
— The ISRA is Seeking Plaintiffs. Illinois Law Signed into Effect by Governor Pritzker Violates the Second Amendment. (COMMENT: Plaintiffs should be protected with restraining orders. Have you ever been an active member in a class action lawsuit? In 1988, when I was 40 years old, the lawyer who led a big class action lawsuit that charged GAO with reverse discrimination, age discrimination, and retaliation sought plaintiffs in all GAO’s offices. I was the only employee in GAO’s Chicago office who became an active member of that big class action lawsuit. My Democrat GAO Chicago office superiors retaliated against me viciously. For the rest of my GAO career, a) they kept me off audits of IRS, b) they gave me extremely unfair job assignments, performance expectations, and performance appraisals, c) they turned my supervisors, coworkers, subordinates against me, d) they assigned me to supervise the office’s most problematic employees, e) they always ranked me in the bottom half of my coworkers for pay-for-performance purposes, and f) they forced me to take their early retirement “offer” in 1997. Of course, the aforesaid discouraged my many Chicago office coworkers who were White, male, older, and/or non-veteran from joining the lawsuit with me even though many of them complained about reverse discrimination, age discrimination, and/or retaliation. Instead of joining the lawsuit with me, they “cut deals” with my Democrat GAO Chicago office superiors. I should write a book about the aforesaid.)

So far, my having lots of money in those banks for many years has not helped much.)
https://www.investopedia.com/terms/m/medallionsignatureguarantee.asp
(COMMENT: Normally, you can obtain a Medallion signature guarantee at a financial institution where you are a customer. The bank may assess a small charge for this service; fees can range from $0 for customers with solid, established relationships to upward of six figures. For financial institutions with on-site stamps, the stamp guarantee can be provided on the same day provided there are no outstanding requirements or errors. Otherwise, it could take between two and five business days for a review. Because the guaranteeing institution’s assets back the certification, a guarantee stamp is not easy to obtain.)

I would focus on those hate-filled Trump-hating Trump-hates a) who destroy those like me who they cannot manipulate or dominate, b) who destroy those like me who refuse to glorify and praise them, c) who destroy those like me who refuse to pander to them, d) who destroy those like me who refuse to serve as one of their operatives or dupes, e) who destroy those like me who refuse to cover up their wrong doing, and/or f) who destroy those like me who refuse to give them money.)

NATIONAL REVIEW
— Mass Murder without Guns – CLAYTON E. CRAMER
https://www.nationalreview.com/2019/08/mass-murder-without-guns/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Common methods used throughout our history include axes, hatchets, blunt objects, knives, hanging, drowning, poison gas, poison, fire, and aircraft (and not just on 9/11). Some of the rarer weapons demonstrate that where there is an evil will, there is a way. Scythes. Blowtorches. Of course, the axes and hatchets were around because they were needed in an age when people cooked over wood stoves. I can imagine axe-control fanatics in 1890 arguing that “an axe in your home is more likely to be used against you than against an intruder.” And perhaps it would have been true: The “Church of the Sacrifice” slaughtered dozens of families with their own axes in the early 20th century. Even today, there are a lot of non-firearm mass murders in America: In USA Today’s collection of mass murders for the period 2006 to 2017, nearly a quarter were done without guns. And most of them you have probably not heard about because they do not advance the Left’s cause of disarming the peasants. There’s the 1973 mass murder at a gay bar in New Orleans that killed 32: An ejected customer went down the street and bought a can of cigarette-lighter fluid. And the 87 murdered in New York City in 1990: A guy upset with his ex-girlfriend bought $1 worth of gasoline. In 1986 in San Juan, Puerto Rico, union officers put pressure on an employer by using camp-stove gas to murder 97. On July 5 of this year, a guy in Port Angeles, Wash., burned his trailer, killing his wife and three children. Did you see that on CNN? Nations with strict gun-control laws still have mass murders. One man stabbed to death five people with a kitchen knife at a Calgary party. After the 1996 Port Arthur mass murder, Australia banned most semiautomatic rifles, but they still have mass murders: eight siblings killed in a mass stabbing in Queensland; five bludgeoned to death in Sydney in 2009. Mass murders by arson are also a problem in such countries. Palace Backpackers Hostel in Childers, Queensland, was intentionally burned in 2000, killing 15. The 2011 Quakers Hill Nursing Home fire killed eleven, set by a nurse after police questioned him about drug abuse.)

— COMMENT: Democrats say “Whisper campaign about RNC chair candidate’s Sikh faith roils campaign.” Government is nasty/vicious. Politics is nasty/vicious. I should write a book about those who have used my having been baptized, raised, and confirmed as a Missouri Synod Lutheran against me the most. I would focus on my Democrat superiors in the federal government and anti-conservative and anti-Protestant past and present a) leaders of the Illinois Republican Party, DuPage County Republican Central Committee, and Milton Township Republican Organization, b) Republican leaders of Illinois, DuPage County, Milton Township, Wheaton, Wheaton Park District, and Wheaton Chamber of Commerce, c) unsuccessful Republican candidates on ballots in my precinct and their major donors, political consultants, fundraisers, pollsters, campaign managers, campaign staff members, and campaign volunteers, d) conservative leaders, e) religious leaders, and f) those who I have sued.

https://news.yahoo.com/whisper-campaign-rnc-chair-candidate-235326943.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The focus on Dhillon’s faith hasn’t just come from people supporting McDaniel. In an email sent to an RNC member on Sunday, a purported supporter of “MyPillow” CEO Mike Lindell, who is also running for committee chair, brought up Dhillon’s religion as an issue. The copy of the email, which was provided to POLITICO with the sender’s name redacted, urged the recipient to support Lindell, an “ardent Christian conservative.” “She is an Indian Sikh by birth and heritage, Not of Judeo-Christian worldview,” the emailer wrote of Dhillon. “None of these core character positions aligns with the Republican Party Platform, planks, or conservatism in general.”)

GOPUSA ILLINOIS
— The Illinois Republican Party (IRP) asks in a survey if it should focus on Inflation, Corruption, Crime, Firing Pritzker, Energy, Taxes, Education, or Other. Political parties exist to help elect candidates who can and will defend and advance their platform. The Republican Party platform is conservative. The IRP should do everything that it can to defend and advance the Republican Party platform including its individual responsibility, traditional marriage/family, right to life, immigration, illegal drugs, Second Amendment, and equal opportunity (no race or gender based preference giving) planks. The IRP should oppose Democrat promotion of dependency on government and charity, LGBTQ, abortion, mass/illegal immigration, booze, gambling, pot, and other vices, diminishment of First and Second Amendment rights, patronage, political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, and age discrimination. The IRP should oppose Democrat promotion of CRT, 1619, BLM, reparations, and wokeness/wokeism. Because Democrats use Affirmative Action (AA), Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) to get rid of Republicans, the IRP should oppose AA and DEI. The IRP should focus on recruiting candidates who can and will defend and advance the Republican Party platform. – Dave Diersen

— COMMENT: Pritzker calls for free college. Between 1964 and 1970, virtually all the money that I earned went for college expenses and for cars to get to/from college classes and jobs. I washed dishes in Chicago Heights 1964-1966; cleaned golf shoes in Flossmoor in 1966; chipped slag and pumped gasoline in South Chicago Heights in 1966; delivered mail in Park Forest 1966-1969; and worked on an automobile assembly line in Belvidere and as a security guard in DeKalb in 1970. I used the money that I earned to pay for a) tuition and books at UIC 1966-1968 and at NIU 1969-1970, b) room and board at NIU 1969-1970, and c) a new 1966 Pontiac Tempest Sprint, a new 1968 Oldsmobile 442, and a new 1969 Dodge Charger SE.

AMERICAN CONSERVATIVE
— America, Tear Down This Flag – Jeremy Carl
https://www.theamericanconservative.com/america-tear-down-this-flag/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The pride flag has quickly become one of America’s national symbols. Once exclusive province of gay ghettos like San Francisco’s Castro District, you can now find pride flags everywhere in a bewildering variety of colors and patterns. They fly from the flagpoles of our embassies, over our cabinet departments, at the FBI, and even decorating the White House. The transgressive has become not just mainstream, but the establishment itself. Whatever the professed intensions of some individuals who fly it, the public meaning of the pride flag, and in particular the public meaning of flying a pride flag at the centers of government power, is not a demand for tolerance. Rather, it is a demand that we worship new gods and new rulers. People understand this intuitively. It is no accident that after the left’s gay marriage victory in Obergefell v. Hodges and the subsequent capitulation of the GOP several years later enshrining Obergefell in federal law, the White House, the literal center and symbol of American regime power, festooned itself in the colors of the pride flag. The flag is a fundamentally political symbol. The left understands this, which is why they push for the pride flag’s ubiquity. Conservatives, for the most part, do not.)

ILLINOIS REVIEW

I would focus on past and present a) leaders of the IRP, DuPage County Republican Central Committee, and Milton Township Republican Organization, b) Republican leaders of Illinois, DuPage County, Milton Township, Wheaton, Wheaton Park District, and Wheaton Chamber of Commerce, c) unsuccessful Republican candidates on ballots in my precinct and their major donors, political consultants, fundraisers, pollsters, campaign managers, campaign staff members, and campaign volunteers, d) conservative leaders, e) religious leaders, and f) those who I have sued.

https://www.newsmax.com/scottpowell/civil-rights-emancipation/2023/01/09/id/1103603/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: To the self-evident truth of all people having equal value, King added an equally timeless truth, that people “should not be judged by the color of their skin but by the content of their character.” Were it possible to transport King into the present, he would be shocked by the stark regression in America in the nearly three generations since he led the civil rights movement of the 1950s and 1960s. He would reject the eclipse of group, gender and ethnic identity evaluation paradigm over the individual merit and character-based approach for assessment, acceptance and advancement — whether in school admission or hiring and promotion in workplaces. King would condemn Wokeism and Critical Race Theory (CRT) because they perpetuate negative racial stereotypes, albeit in a reversal, that denigrate the white race. He would also find them fundamentally flawed because they exacerbate division rather than bring people together through constructive dialogue and concurrently seeing all people as individuals made in God’s image.)

— COMMENT: I share many demographics with Trump, including conservative, Republican, Protestant, German American, and draft avoider. Ever-increasingly, as Democrats ever-increasingly call those who share Trump’s demographics anti-Semites, I am reminded a) that to encourage/force my many Jewish superiors and supervisors in the federal government to take adverse actions against me, they stressed to them my demographics and that I had lived in Crete 1948-1972 and in Wheaton since 1978 and b) that my many Jewish superiors and supervisors in the federal government took many adverse actions against me. My three GAO Chicago office superiors who forced me to take their early retirement “offer” in 1997 when I was 49 years old were Jewish and two of them were female.

(FROM THE ARTICLE: The Illinois Freedom Caucus is issuing the following statement that said: “Leader Jim Durkin is offering all kinds of excuses as he leaves the General Assembly, but the truth is under his leadership our caucus is at its lowest point in membership in a very long time. Leader Durkin squandered money in the 2022 Primary to secure legislative candidates in open seats who were loyal to him and who were not necessarily the best fit for the districts in which they ran, and this proved to be a disastrous decision. We are in this mess not because of our principles but because of our leadership’ lack of commitment to our principles. Jim Durkin has abandoned Republican principles of lower taxes, reduced spending and standing up for our Constitutional rights. Raising taxes to spend more money we don’t have and attacking the Constitutional rights of honest citizens is not a winning message. We need to be united as a party against tax increases and we need to be the party of fiscal responsibility. Jim Durkin’s strategy of offering voters a ‘Democrat Lite’ agenda has been a colossal failure. Our party needs bold leadership if we ever hope to get out of the super minority. Jim Durkin has made it clear he is not willing to provide that bold leadership and is leaving the General Assembly. We wish him good luck on his future endeavors.”)

— Congresswoman Mary Miller Statement on Conservative Policy Victories in Speakership Negotiations
https://mchenrycountyblog.com/2023/01/08/take-on-u-s-house-speakership-fight/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Congresswoman Mary Miller (R-IL) released the following statement on the historic conservative victory to ensure the House of Representatives stops reckless spending and holds the Biden Administration accountable to the American people: “I promised my constituents that I would fight to change the status quo in the DC swamp, and thanks to 20 members who insisted on change, we can now celebrate a historic victory for the conservative movement despite intense pressure for us to give up and accept business as usual in Washington. After intense negotiations and hard work by House Freedom Caucus members and House Republican leadership, we changed the rules to ensure that a Republican-controlled House cannot betray conservatives the way that Senate Republicans did when they passed Joe Biden’s $1.7 trillion omnibus. With 40-year high inflation and $31 trillion in debt, we must save our country for our children and grandchildren. Our conservative policy package includes: The power to block an omnibus spending bill from the Senate; The power to eliminate waste by making direct budget cuts to the federal bureaucracy and spending caps to cut spending; A balanced federal budget over the next 10 years A “Church-style” Committee to Investigate the Weaponization of the Federal Government, including the Biden Department of Justice; A Southern Border Security Plan; The end of COVID mandates and funding for them; Requiring 72 hours to read a bill before the vote; The power for one member to call a vote for a new Speaker. I want to thank President Donald Trump, Freedom Caucus Chairman Scott Perry, Judiciary Committee Chairman Jim Jordan, and Speaker Kevin McCarthy for their work making this victory for the conservative movement and the American people possible. I look forward to working with the House Republican Conference to stop Joe Biden’s destructive, radical, leftist agenda!)

ILLINOIS REVIEW
— House GOP Leader Jim Durkin Resigning, Says Trump Republicans, 2nd Amendment and Pro-Life Issues “Dragged” GOP Down in Midterm Election (COMMENT: Ever-increasingly, Durkin in glorified and praised by hate-filled conservative-hating conservative-haters. I should write a book about how since 2000 the leaders of the following have treated conservatives, that is, how they have mistreated conservatives, that is, how they have dumped conservatives: Illinois House Republicans, Illinois Senate Republicans, Illinois Republican Party, DuPage County Republican Central Committee, and Milton Township Republican Organization. Ever-increasingly, Durkin makes it clear that he, like McCain, has always rejected many planks in the Republican Party platform.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: In media interviews after announcing his resignation as House GOP leader, State Rep. Jim 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,” said Durkin. But pointing fingers and blaming others is exactly why Illinois House Republicans are in the super minority – and Durkin has no one else to blame but himself. And blaming the former President does nothing but distract from his own leadership failures. In announcing his resignation on Sunday, Durkin once again began pointing fingers, 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.” But Durkin didn’t just stop there. “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.” To suggest that Second Amendment and pro-life issues are “dragging” the Republican party down is an insult – they are issues that make us Republicans in the first place. In the last week, 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. Just a few days ago, Durkin was the only Republican to join the Democrats, voting in favor of the assault weapons ban. The legislation “immediately prohibits the manufacturing, possession, delivery, sales, and purchase of assault weapons” with a few exceptions – if you are a police officer or you are in the military. The Illinois Freedom Caucus sent a late night email urging conservatives to call Democrats and urge them to vote “No,” arguing that the Democrats admitted in committee that they did not consult with gun groups while drafting the legislation – including the Illinois State Rifle Association, who plans on filing a lawsuit when the bill becomes law. Durkin remains a close ally and best friend of IL GOP chairman Don Tracy. During the primary, Durkin was a supporter of Richard Irvin’s Republican campaign for governor, despite Irvin pulling Democratic Primary ballots in 2014, 2016 and 2020.)

https://www.nbcchicago.com/news/local/outgoing-illinois-house-gop-leader-jim-durkin-to-resign-from-legislature/3039792/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Falling short of that goal, Durkin was candid about his hope that the Illinois GOP and its base will see the losses up and down the ballot as an opportunity for a reckoning. “The party needs to hit the reset button and realize what happened again on Tuesday, that we cannot allow the far right fringe to control the party,” Durkin said Nov. 10. “If they continue, we will suffer losses at the same level we did this cycle, last cycle.” Durkin says those losses can be traced in large part to one person: former President Donald Trump.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: He said at the time that while he accepted responsibility for his own mistakes, former President Donald Trump and the Illinois Republican Party’s MAGA wing bear a lot of blame for the party’s troubles. “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,” Durkin said. “Whoever succeeds me, we need to do more to not take these strident positions on issues related to firearms, to issues of reproductive health, issues relating to the gay and lesbian community. There are many people who feel very strong about those issues who would vote for Republicans.”)

CHICAGO TRIBUNE
— FRONT PAGE TOP OF FOLD WITH PICTURE OF DURKIN: COMMENT: Ever-increasingly, Durkin is glorified and praised by hate-filled conservative-hating conservative-haters. I should write a book about how the leaders of the following since 2000 have treated conservatives, that is, how they have mistreated conservatives, that is, how they have dumped conservatives: Illinois House Republicans, Illinois Senate Republicans, Illinois Republican Party, DuPage County Republican Central Committee, and Milton Township Republican Organization.

https://www.chicagotribune.com/politics/ct-jim-durkin-resigning-house-seat-20230108-f6f6lkonprdsnmdlzmz3vhc4im-story.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: His psychiatric skills, he said, are no longer able to respond to an increasingly rightward Republican Party mindset, fostered by former President Donald Trump and his followers, that threatens to relegate the party to permanent minority status in the state. . .“The politics have changed. The party over the last at least six years has shifted,” he said. “The only way you can win in Illinois is that you’re going to have to just find the candidates that reflect the district. And we should not hold anyone to the 100% (party) purity test that some people in this party expect throughout the state.” . . . Durkin points the blame for the disastrous election results — particularly in the suburbs that were once a cornerstone of Illinois Republicanism — at a statewide GOP ticket led by gubernatorial candidate Darren Bailey, a state senator who leaned heavily on his evangelical Christianity in his campaign and who was endorsed by Trump. . . “We had some great (GOP House) candidates in the suburbs and collar counties and they were all painted (by Democrats) with the same brush, as being Trump sympathizers from a party of intolerance and extremists,” he said. “The Trump factor and Jan. 6 is something that’s not going away anytime soon. And that obviously was in many people’s minds when they talked about their fear for democracy.” Durkin said he thinks Republicans in Illinois will not be successful until the party distances itself from Trump and acknowledges both his role in the Jan. 6, 2021, insurrection at the U.S. Capitol and his 2020 election defeat to Democratic President Joe Biden. . .“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,” he said. “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 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,” he said. . .A group of far-right Republican lawmakers known unofficially as the “Eastern Bloc,” of which Bailey was a member, chafed under policies expanding abortion and gay rights and also proposed legislation to make Chicago a separate state. “I can’t run a candidate in the western suburbs who’s going to win who is mirroring what someone says campaigning on in the Deep South,” Durkin said. “I just don’t think we should be promoting the 51st state in the collars and the suburbs when it certainly plays well downstate.” Durkin became friends with the late U.S. Sen. John McCain of Arizona, even serving as his Illinois director in the 2008 presidential campaign against home-state favorite Barack Obama. Durkin said McCain “would have figured a way to avoid” the Republican “mess” that led to the U.S. House taking 15 ballots before electing Rep. Kevin McCarthy of California speaker, and also “would have ensured that on Jan. 6, maybe something different, maybe something could have been averted.” “The John McCain I know would have gone outside of the Capitol and kicked the asses of the insurrectionists and Trump’s as well,” Durkin said. “He’s the statesman that this country needs.” . . .He and Durbin also developed a friendship. . .One of his last legislative votes was as the lone Republican to vote with Democrats to approve a ban on military-style firearms and large-capacity magazines. Durkin, who has long backed various gun control initiatives, said his vote not only represented his district’s beliefs but was a reflection of his years as a prosecutor.)

CHICAGO SUN-TIMES
— COIMMENT: Illinois Democrats say “Departing state House GOP leader Jim Durkin giving up his seat in Illinois General Assembly.” Ever-increasingly, Durkin makes it clear that he, like McCain, has always rejected many of the planks in the Republican Party platform.
https://chicago.suntimes.com/2023/1/8/23545889/departing-state-house-gop-leader-jim-durkin-giving-up-his-seat-in-illinois-general-assembly
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The Western Springs Republican in November said he was relinquishing his role as House minority leader, a largely thankless job as his party moved further to the right and the state moved further to the left. Despite his high-profile departure, Durkin in November told the Sun-Times that he wants moderate Republicans to soldier on. “The state wants people who are more to the middle. That’s why we have a bigger independent voting bloc, because of the extremes in both parties. Extremes on both sides dictate the primaries, and that’s what happens in the general elections,” Durkin said.)
— COMMENT: Ever-increasingly, Democrats a) glorify and praise RINOs and b) demonize, denigrate, and condemn conservatives, that is, platform Republicans, that is, Republicans as being hardliners.

(FROM THE ARTICLE: Miller disclosed the outlines of the sweeping agreement. Besides keeping the speaker on a short leash, her group will: Have the power to block the sort of omnibus bill the House and Senate — with GOP support — approved in one of the last major acts of the 117th Congress. Have the power to block an increase in the debt ceiling, with an impasse possibly leading to a government shutdown. Create, as Miller put it, a committee to “investigate the weaponization of the federal government, including the Biden Department of Justice.” Miller, a farmer, who represents the heavily Republican 15th Congressional District in southern Illinois, was raised in suburban Naperville and in November won her second term. She has served on the House Agriculture Committee and the House Education and Labor Committee, but she is best known for her activism fighting against abortion, gun control measures and other hot-button social issues.)

CAPITOL FAX
— COMMENT: Illinois Democrats say “Leader Durkin to resign from Illinois House on Tuesday.” Ever-increasingly, Durkin is glorified and praised by hate-filled conservative-hating conservative-haters. I should write a book about how the leaders of the following since 2000 have treated conservatives, that is, how they have mistreated conservatives, that is, how they have dumped conservatives: Illinois House Republicans, Illinois Senate Republicans, Illinois Republican Party, DuPage County Republican Central Committee, and Milton Township Republican Organization. Ever-increasingly, Durkin makes it clear that he, like McCain, has always rejected many planks in the Republican Party platform.
https://capitolfax.com/2023/01/08/leader-durkin-to-resign-from-illinois-house-on-tuesday/
(The Illinois Freedom Caucus is issuing the following statement on the news current Republican Leader Jim Durkin will be resigning as a state legislator. “Leader Jim Durkin is offering all kinds of excuses as he leaves the General Assembly, but the truth is under his leadership our caucus is at its lowest point in membership in a very long time. Leader Durkin squandered money in the 2022 Primary to secure legislative candidates in open seats who were loyal to him and who were not necessarily the best fit for the districts in which they ran, and this proved to be a disastrous decision. We are in this mess not because of our principles but because of our leadership’ lack of commitment to our principles. Jim Durkin has abandoned Republican principles of lower taxes, reduced spending and standing up for our Constitutional rights. Raising taxes to spend more money we don’t have and attacking the Constitutional rights of honest citizens is not a winning message. We need to be united as a party against tax increases and we need to be the party of fiscal responsibility. Jim Durkin’s strategy of offering voters a ‘Democrat Lite’ agenda has been a colossal failure. Our party needs bold leadership if we ever hope to get out of the super minority. Jim Durkin has made it clear he is not willing to provide that bold leadership and is leaving the General Assembly. We wish him good luck on his future endeavors.” The Illinois Freedom Caucus is comprised of State Representatives Adam Niemerg (R-Dieterich); Chris Miller (R-Oakland); Brad Halbrook (R-Shelbyville); Blaine Wilhour (R-Beecher City) and Dan Caulkins (R-Decatur). The members of the Illinois Freedom Caucus are members of the Illinois General Assembly who are advocating for limited government, lower taxes and accountability and integrity in government.)

— COMMENT: Illinois Democrats say “The Senate has adjourned until after the governor’s inauguration tomorrow without taking up their own assault weapons proposal or the House’s version, but they will caucus on it tonight. The chamber did pass a pay raise bill, which must be signed into law by the governor before noon tomorrow so that statewide elected officials can get their raises. The constitution bars any adjustments in salaries during a term in office.”

TOWNHALL
— Why RINOs Are RINOs – Rachel Alexander
https://townhall.com/columnists/rachelalexander/2023/01/09/why-rinos-are-rinos-n2618036
(FROM THE ARTICLE: RINOs always declare that they side with Democrats out of “principles,” and attack conservatives for the exact same reasons the left does; the usual vague claims that they’re offensive, too extreme and unelectable. But their assertion of being principled is a smokescreen. Ever notice how RINOs are always well off, well networked and have been around a long time as GOP establishment? It comes down to follow the money and who they know, but they’re too dishonest to admit it.)

— COMMENT: Democrats say Pritzker says “Hike cabinet pay to ‘bring, retain great people.” I was a federal employee for almost 30 years and I have been a federal retiree for more than 25 years. According to my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes, a) federal employees are grossly overpaid and b) federal pensions are far too generous. They hint/imply/argue/shout that bad pay and benefits are major reasons why they have never applied for a federal job, but the real reasons include: a) they cannot pass required employment examinations, b) they lack required education, professional certifications, and/or licenses, c) they cannot pass required background investigations, and/or d) they lack required work experience. I should write a book about my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes who would never be offered a federal job if they applied because of the aforesaid. I got and kept three federal jobs (Post Office Carrier/Clerk for almost 3 years, IRS Revenue Officer for almost 9 years, and GAO Analyst for almost 18 years) a) because I passed required employment examinations (Post Office employment examination, Federal Service Entrance Examination, CPA examination, and Certified Internal Auditor examination), b) because I had required education (high school diploma, bachelor’s degree in management and master’s degrees in business, accounting, and finance), professional certifications (CPA, Certified Internal Auditor, Certified Fraud Examiner, Certified Government Financial Manager, Certified Financial Services Auditor, and Forensic Accountant), and a CPA license, c) because I passed required background investigations, and d) because I had required work experience (almost 9 years working for IRS, the last 5 1/2 years of which at the GS-12 Step 1-5 Levels, currently $92,279-$104.583/year).

— COMMENT: Democrats say “NY Rep. George Santos sworn in to Congress amid controversy, scrutiny over campaign.” To get preference, people falsely claim to be members of groups that get preference. Ever-increasingly, under the Democrats and under the RINOs, members of the following groups get preference: minority, female, younger, LGBTQ, veteran, non-Protestant, non-Italian American, non-German American, and those whose ancestors have not been in America for a long time. To give preference to one group is to discriminate against another group. Therefore, ever-increasingly, Democrats and RINOs discriminate against members of the following groups: White, male, older, heterosexual, non-veteran, Italian American, German American, and those whose ancestors have been in America for a long time. I should write a book about the aforesaid.

CITIES 92.9
— More than 30,700 mail-in ballots in Illinois for November election were rejected – Greg Bishop (COMMENT: What percent of mail-in ballots are fraudulent?)
https://www.cities929.com/2023/01/07/more-than-30700-mail-in-ballots-in-illinois-for-november-election-were-rejected/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: In DuPage County this past election, an election official was comparing mail-in ballot applications to verify signatures on the ballots, not the original voter signature on file with the county’s elections office. A lawsuit over the issue is pending. On Friday, the Illinois legislature further modified the mail-in balloting law. A Senate amendment to House Bill 45 makes changes to correct a drafting error in state law and make clarifications in various judicial circuits. The measure also strikes out of state elections law the requirement an election authority compares the signature of a mail-in ballot with the official voter file held by the county clerk.)

I should write a book about the leading conservative-haters in Illinois, in DuPage County, in Milton Township, and in Wheaton and what they have done and what they are doing to drive conservatives out of Illinois, DuPage County, Milton Township, and Wheaton.

They just ended my service as a) the Wheaton Independence Day parades and fireworks Republican fundraiser, b) the TAPROOT Republicans of Illinois chairman, c) a Wheaton Chamber of Commerce Government Affairs Committee member, d) the Milton Township Republican Organization webmaster, e) an Illinois Center Right Coalition Steering Committee member, f) an American Association of Political Consultants Midwest Chapter board member, g) a GAO employee, h) etc.)
https://www.theepochtimes.com/mkt_app/mccarthys-concessions-to-freedom-caucus-and-what-they-mean_4968665.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: While it normally takes 218 votes—a majority of the House—to become speaker, that threshold can be reduced if members are absent or merely vote present. It’s precisely this maneuver that gave McCarthy his coveted win, as six Republicans voted “present” instead of “yea” in the final vote: Reps. Andy Biggs (R-Ariz.), Lauren Boebert (R-Colo.), Eli Crane (R-Ariz.), Matt Gaetz (R-Fla.), Bob Good (R-Va.), and Matt Rosendale (R-Mont.). In a 20-minute speech following the vote, McCarthy laid out his priorities for the 118th Congress, including securing the southern border, combating “woke” indoctrination in American schools, and unleashing domestic energy production. “We must get America back on track,” he said. “We’ll hold the swamp accountable.” The House now plans to vote on a hefty rules package, which includes a series of concessions that the 20 holdout Republicans pushed for. Some GOP strategists hailed the rule changes as a major win for the House Republicans Conference—the party caucus for Republicans in the House of Representatives—saying it marks the first time in decades that they have independent authority from leadership.)

https://www.abc27.com/border-report-tour/texas-sues-biden-administration-over-public-assistance-rule-ag-says-migrants-burden-taxpayers/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The state of Texas has sued the Biden administration over its reversal of a public charge law, alleging it is breaking federal laws by allowing migrants who accept public assistance to reside in the country and to apply for green cards and U.S. citizenship. The Biden administration last year changed the federal definition of who is considered a “public charge” and which noncitizens will be considered inadmissible to enter the United States because they would likely be dependent upon the government for survival. In the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Texas in Victoria, Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton on Thursday filed the lawsuit against President Joe Biden, Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas and other top officials. “Since 1882, federal immigration law has barred the admission of aliens who are unable to take care of themselves and will become public charges,” the 24-page lawsuit said.
“The Biden Administration seeks to further its open borders policy by enacting a new agency rule that effectively nullifies federal law excluding aliens likely to become public charges,” the lawsuit claims. “The Biden administration is committed to opening the borders to aliens who lack the ability to take care of themselves. Texans should not have to pay for these costly immigrants, nor should any other American,” Paxton said in a statement. “I will continue to defend the rule of law and fight to ensure that the massive costs of illegal immigration don’t further burden taxpayers.”)

— COMMENT: How many of Trump’s demographics do you share with Trump? Ever-increasingly, hate-filled Trump-hating Trump-haters a) run Illinois, run DuPage County, run Milton Township, and run Wheaton and b) demonize, denigrate, and condemn those who share Trump’s demographics: conservative, Republican, White, male, older, non-poor, heterosexual, married, gun owner, Protestant, German American, and/or those whose ancestors have been in America for a long time. How should those like me who share lots of Trump’s demographics react to that? I should write a book about those in Wheaton, in Milton Township, in DuPage County, and in Illinois who share lots of Trump’s demographics with him, and to save themselves from hate-filled Trump-hating Trump-haters, curry favor with them by demonizing, denigrating, and condemning those who share lots of demographics with Trump. I would focus on those who share Trump’s political affiliation, race, gender, age, financial, and/or marital demographics. I would focus on those who have taken the most/biggest adverse actions against me. All politics are local. I would focus on those a) who have stopped me from raising funds from Republicans to help sponsor Wheaton’s Independence Day parades and fireworks since 2021, b) who promoted BLM and LGBTQ big time in Wheaton in 2020, and/or b) who assured that I would not be selected to fill the Wheaton City Council West District vacancy in 2019.

MIAMI TIMES
— COMMENT: Ever-increasingly, the more demographics that you share with Trump, the more that hate-filled Trump-hating Trump-haters hate you.
https://www.miamitimesonline.com/opinion/resolving-to-kill-haters-with-kindness-in-2023/article_ecf0a9ca-8c05-11ed-a389-df4d855aae23.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: With the advent of Donald Trump, polite political discourse was no longer possible for me. If you liked Trump, then I found it hard for me to like you. I found white, male, Christian friends were the first to go, because they all drank the Kool-Aid and became Trumpites. Suddenly, I could not bear to be around men I had called friends for more than 20 years. I found it hard to believe that these and other friends – who seemed liberal and “woke” – were suddenly Neanderthals, following a white nationalist who lied, cheated and lied again. I tried to explain to a white friend that anyone who followed Trump was akin to Germans who followed Hitler. He did not understand me. Parallels between the white nationalist Trump movement and Hitler’s Nazism are too scarily similar. If I was Jewish, it would be impossible for me to be friends with a pro-Hitler German. Therefore, as a Black man in America, I found it difficult to maintain relationships with white men who loved Trump – a racist who borrowed let’s “Make America Great Again” from the Ku Klux Klan. The Klan used this phrase to describe an America where white people were on top and Black people knew their “place.” How could I be friends with white people who applauded a man who wanted to oppress Black people, build a wall to stop Mexicans from crossing our border, stop immigration from “sh-thole countries,” stop visitors from Muslim countries and otherwise create policies that would ensure white people don’t lose the demographic war? Black and brown people are having more babies and emigrating to this country in greater numbers. Black and brown people will be the majority in 2040 and Trump rose to power espousing ideas to stop this demographic trend. Trump stirred up white people who were tired of “diversity,” “affirmative action” and feeling that their white privilege was slipping away. He reached some of my closest friends who, whether they wanted to admit it to themselves or not, felt under siege as white males in America. So, we stopped talking. One friend asked if we could be friends again after the presidential election. I mumbled that I would try.)

https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/opinion/columnists/auto-companies-cars-electric-vehicles-tesla-ford-gm-toyota
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The American auto companies, which are so often bailed out by U.S. taxpayers, have made a pronouncement that they intend, in the next few years, to stop making and assembling gas-engine cars. You know. The kind of cars that Henry Ford started rolling off the assembly line 100 years ago at the Ford Motor Company in Detroit. Henceforth, virtually all American-made cars will be electric vehicles. Perhaps the corporate brass in Michigan’s auto executive offices thinks this makes them good global citizens. They are all in on the fight against global warming. They may be making a political bet that the federal government and more states are going to go the way of California and eventually mandate that every car produced must be battery-operated. But there is also a good deal of virtue-signaling going on here by the folks at Ford and General Motors. It’s a free country, and if they want to start rolling millions of EVs off the assembly lines, so be it. But it’s one thing to make cars that appeal to members of the Sierra Club and quite another to produce automobiles that the typical buyer wants. And guess what? So far, most people have turned a decisive thumbs-down on EVs. (Incidentally, I’m personally agnostic on electric vehicles. I’ve driven Teslas, and they are wonderful smooth-driving vehicles. But they have problems too, such as getting stranded with no juice in the middle of nowhere.) So far, only about 6% of new cars sold are electric vehicles. And polls show that only about half of Americans prefer an EV over a traditional car. Much larger majorities oppose the government telling us what kind of car we can buy. Incidentally, the one state that far outpaces the rest of the country in EV sales (with about 1 in 3 new car sales being battery-operated) is California. But, hey, Detroit: Sorry, California isn’t the country. All of this is to say that there’s a decent chance the American auto companies’ shift to all EVs is going to fail. This could even be the most epic failure for American car companies since Ford introduced the Edsel. (For youngsters, that was the 1950s ugly car that nobody wanted to buy.) Meanwhile, and this is the especially sad part of the story, at least one company realizes the tomfoolery of making only electric cars. And that company is the Japanese automaker Toyota. Akio Toyoda, the president and grandson of the founder of the giant Japanese car company, is going to buck the trend. “People involved in the auto industry are largely a silent majority,” Toyoda recently told news reporters. “That silent majority is wondering whether EVs are really OK to have as a single option. But they think it’s the trend, so they can’t speak out loudly.”)

https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/news/majority-of-mccarthy-defectors-received-thousands-campaign-funds
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The majority of the Republicans opposing Rep. Kevin McCarthy’s (R-CA) bid for House speaker received a total of $120,000 in campaign funds from the party leader’s political action committee during the midterm cycle, according to finance filings. At least 20 Republicans have voted against McCarthy’s nomination to become the next speaker, pitting the former minority leader against several members of his party. Of the 20 Republicans, 14 of them received a total of $120,000 from the Majority Committee alone, according to the Federal Election Committee. When taking into account all political groups affiliated with McCarthy, the group received a total of more than $1 million to boost campaigns.)

— Kevin McCarthy Drama Underscores Impotence of Republican Elite – Josh Hammer
https://www.creators.com/read/josh-hammer/01/23/kevin-mccarthy-drama-underscores-impotence-of-republican-elite
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Kevin McCarthy, first elected to Congress in 2006, has been an establishment figure since the day he arrived in Washington, D.C. His political philosophy and guiding principles are to this day largely unknown, to the perhaps-dubious extent they exist at all. True, he is a well-known prolific fundraiser who knows how to work a room full of donors — but what exactly has that accomplished for either the GOP or the conservative cause, of late? McCarthy is best understood as an empty suit and a quintessential Swamp creature — someone who lives and breathes the D.C. game, who is cozy with K Street and whose main lodestar is cutting deals and expending political capital in order to boost his own political fortunes.)

In 1997, my anti-conservative anti-Republican Jewish Democrat GAO superiors hinted that they might let me work for another 6 years until I was eligible for regular retirement if I a) agreed to be constructively demoted and to work for my Black subordinate who they had turned against me or b) agreed to be transferred to another audit group.
