— Thomas wants Supreme Court case to weigh limiting tech company legal liability – KAELAN DEESE
(COMMENT: When articles that my critics/opponents do not like are posted on websites, instead of responding to those articles, instead of taking action against those websites, and instead of taking action against the authors of those articles, my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes do everything that can a) to stop me from sending out GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters and b) to stop everyone from reading those newsletters. I should write a book about my critics/opponents that would include a) all the articles that they do not like and b) all the adverse actions that they took against me. In 2006, I included a link in a GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletter to an article in the Chicago Sun-Times written by Tom Roeser called for Bill Brady to withdraw so that the conservative vote would not be split and Jim Oberweis could defeat Judy Baar Topinka in the 2006 Illinois Republican gubernatorial primary. Topinka got 38% of the vote in that primary, Oberweis got 32%, and Brady got 18%. Brady supporters have always a) painted me as being an operative or a dupe for Oberweis and b) blamed me for Brady’s past, present, and future problems. Brady supporters a) almost got the Illinois Center Right Coalition (ICRC) to censure me for my GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters at its 2006 annual convention in the Wheaton Bowl banquet Hall and b) succeeded in throwing me off the ICRC Steering Committee in 2007 at its annual convention in the Wheaton Bowl Banquet Hall.)

(COMMENT: What networking advantages did you have while you were earning your bachelor’s degree? I graduated from Crete-Monee High School in 1966 and earned a bachelor’s degree in management from NIU in 1970. Neither of my outstanding parents attended college. My father was the first of his ancestors to earn a high school diploma. He fought type 1 diabetes from childhood, worked in the office of a nasty chemical plant in Chicago Heights, almost always worked second jobs to pay the family’s bills, and died suddenly in 1969 when he was 47 and I was 21. My mother never attended high school. I washed dishes for the minimum wage 1964-1966; cleaned golf shoes, chipped slag, and pumped gasoline during the summer of 1966; delivered mail in Park Forest 1966-1969; and worked on an automobile assembly line and as a security guard in early 1970. My parents provided me with room and board 1966-1968, weekends during my first semester at NIU in 1969, and the summer of 1969. The aforesaid provided me with very few opportunities to network. I was draft bait. I accepted the only job offer that I received, to be the Retail Sales Manager for the Firestone Store in Chicago Heights.)

ARIZONA MIRROR
— Democrats, Republicans view precinct committeemen in very different lights. – JEREMY DUDA
(COMMENT: In Illinois, State Central Committee (SCC) members lead the Democrat and Republican parties. Democrat SCC members are directly elected by Democrat primary voters. But Republican SCC members are elected by Chicago ward party chairmen, Cook County township party chairmen, and precinct committeemen. At the Illinois Republican Party'(IRP) State Convention in 2008, I unsuccessfully fought hard for direct election of IRP SCC members. I should write a book about those who continue to destroy me because I did that. I would focus on past and present IRP officers and SCC members. Who will run to be the IRP SCC member for the new 3rd Congressional District?)
https://www.azmirror.com/2022/03/18/democrats-republicans-view-precinct-committeemen-in-very-different-lights/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Once people realized this month that a bill the legislature unanimously approved eliminated elections for precinct committeemen, activists began hounding Republican lawmakers to reverse course, which they moved to do almost immediately. Angry precinct committeemen filled legislative hearing rooms as lawmakers debated bills to restore their elections for this year. One GOP senator told them they were the most important elected officials in America. A House Republican compared them to George Washington, Benjamin Franklin and Paul Revere. Republican legislators vowed to revive the elections for precinct committeemen, whom they lauded as the backbone of the party’s activist base.)

I would focus on those who have/had lots of religious, government, political, and financial clout in Wheaton, Milton Township, DuPage County, and Illinois.)

https://dupagepolicyjournal.com/stories/621598562-at-wheaton-s-edison-school-black-eighth-graders-to-lecture-whites-on-black-hair-culture-importance-of-black-history-month
(FROM THE ARTICLE: A black-only student group at Wheaton’s Edison School has been conducting lectures for white students this week, instructing them on what words it is appropriate to use around blacks, why it is important that whites find Black History Month important and the particulars of “black hair culture.” An email to parents and students obtained by DuPage Policy Journal outlined the details of Edison’s school-sponsored “Panthers in Black” lecture series. “There are different endings such as ‘-er’ and ‘-a’ which have two different meanings,” one slide from the presentation reads. The presentation goes on to dictate how the word should be approached. “When it is used between African Americans, the definition of the word changes and is commonly used as a term of endearment such as “friend” or “buddy”. ONLY African Americans can use it in this context, not other races,” another slide reads. The Panthers in Black Club is closed to non-black students. “If there are any African American students who would like to join Panthers In Black (PIB), please contact your school counselor. PIB works towards raising awareness about Black history, culture, and racial injustice,” the slideshow reads at the end. The lecture took place without parent notice. The lecturer was delivered to sixth-graders on Monday, March 7, seventh-graders on Tuesday, March 8, and to the eighth grade on Wednesday, March 9. The series was announced by the school via email. “This week, a group of students from our Panthers in Black group is presenting a short slideshow during part of the ELA block. The presentation is called POV from PIB (Point of View from Panthers in Black). The presenters are 8th grade students who are Black and want to help their non-black peers learn how to avoid saying some of the offensive and hurtful things they have heard in our school,” the school said in an email. “Some of the topics include the history and importance of Black History Month, the history of the n-word and the importance of never saying it, Black hair culture and the importance of not touching people’s hair and more. “We truly want our school to be a place where all students feel seen, accepted, respected, and valued. We are so proud of these girls for having the courage to share these important lessons with their peers in the hopes of creating a more welcoming and inclusive environment in our school.” Edison School is part of CUSD 200 and has 664 students in 2021, 464 whites, 59 Hispanics, 53 Asians and 42 blacks, according to the Illinois State Board of Education.)

(FROM THE POSTING: The grass roots and foundation of the political parties are its precinct committeepersons. They serve as the foot soldiers to the most fundamental political unit of government, the precinct. The precinct committeeperson helps shape party policy and participates in the selection process of candidates. A precinct committeeperson is elected to a two-year term in the even-year primary elections. Expectations of a precinct committeeperson: Represent the party’s voters at the county central committee convention to elect the county central chairman and its officers. The precinct committeeman casts a total number of party votes, (weighted vote), as cast in the precinct at the recent primary election. Attend and become involved in the party’s Township meetings. Become a voter registrar and register all qualified constituents. Appoint and fill vacancies of election judges for the precinct polling place. Provide candidate and election information to the voters. Circulate petitions for candidates prior to the primary election. Become familiar with the elected officials and legislatures so the concerns of the voters can be passed on to them)

(COMMENT: This school is in my DuPage County Milton Township Precinct 9. Per Breakthrough Ideas: “The Edison Middle School Principal should be focusing on academics instead of these types of presentations. Only 42 percent of the students perform at grade level in English Language Arts and only 33 percent perform at grade level in Math.

https://illinoisfamily.org/education/school-approved-racism-in-western-suburb-of-chicago/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: It appears the racism identified as “anti-racism” and being endorsed all across America is bearing rotten fruit at ever younger ages and in ever more perverse ways. Just last week, administrators at Edison Middle School in Wheaton, Illinois allowed student members of the blacks-only “Panthers in Black” school club to lecture peers on the intricacies of using various forms of the “n”-word. Students learned who is permitted to use the “n”-word and which “n”-word suffix is appropriate in what context. Parents of students forced to listen to this non-voluntary lecture were not notified ahead of time or asked to sign a permission slip. Eighteen slides were included in the lecture addressing topics like the importance of Black History Month. This slide was notable for its vagueness. The Panthers in Black advocate for “recognizing” and “promoting” appreciation of African American “achievement, culture, heritage, sacrifices, and accomplishments, including past and current events.” Several things are unclear.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: The suits, which are being argued in several state and federal courts, accuse Project Veritas, Fox News, The Gateway Pundit, One America News and others of intentionally promoting and profiting from false claims of voter fraud during the 2020 election, and of smearing innocent civil servants and businesses in the process. If the outlets prevail, these experts say, the results will call into question more than a half-century of precedent that created a clear legal framework for establishing when news organizations can be held liable for publishing something that’s not true.)

WASHINGTON POST
— If You Already Hate Your New Job, It’s Fine to Quit – Kathryn Minshew
(COMMENT: I never hated my jobs, but my Democrat superiors wanted me to. I should write a book about adverse actions that my Democrat superiors in the federal government took against me and how I responded. After my Democrat GAO superiors forced me to retire in 1997 when I was 49 years old, my attorney Walter T. Charlton filed a lawsuit against them in 1998. After they made it clear that they would never again assign me to audits of IRS and assigned me to audits of federal financial industry regulators in 1990, a) I started taking graduate finance courses at IIT in 1992 and earned a master’s degree in financial markets and trading in 1997 and b) I became a Forensic Accountant in 1997, Certified Financial Services Auditor in 1996, Certified Government Financial Manager in 1994, and Certified Fraud Examiner in 1990. After they a) gave me an unfair performance appraisal in 1989, b) made it clear that they were going to get rid of me that year, c) got rid of my mentor in 1987 who had hired me, gotten me assigned to audits of IRS in 1986, and promoted me in 1986, and d) made it clear that GAO would never promote me again, I filed a grievance and sought help from Henry Hyde. After they forced me to take a $20,901 (21%) pay cut in today’s dollars to transfer from IRS to GAO in 1980, I a) became a licensed CPA in 1981, b) passed the Certified Internal Auditor examination on my first attempt in 1981, and c) completed the requirements for a master’s degree in accounting from DePaul in 1980. After my Democrat IRS superiors a) made it clear that IRS would never promote me again, b) disallowed my education deductions in 1978, c) got rid of my mentor in 1975 who had promoted me in 1974, 1972, and 1972, and d) disallowed my partial day per diem claims in 1974, I earned an MBA from Loyola in 1976, started taking graduate accounting courses at DePaul in 1976, and passed the CPA examination on my first attempt in 1979. After my Democrat Firestone Stores boss made it clear that he disapproved of my demographics, I accepted a job offer from Oldsmobile. After my Democrat Post Office superiors a) forced me to resign in 1969 and b) disallowed my sick leave requests in 1969 and 1968, I earned a bachelor’s degree in management from NIU in 1970.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: Perhaps you have read the book “1984” by George Orwell and published in 1949. In the totalitarian superstate Oceania, the government purposely breaks up families in order for the government to keep its power. The family structure needs to be non-existent so that the people cannot unite or feel loved. Here’s another interesting quote: “The planned destruction of the family was part of the communist agenda from its inception by Karl Marx and Frederic Engels. It became government policy in the USSR in about 1917. It was so successful in the USSR that it threatened to destroy society in the USSR. Curiously, while in the 1940s the USSR took steps to repair the damages its family-hostile policies had caused, American communists imported the Soviet agenda for the planned destruction of the family into the USA.” (Statement of Bill Wood, July 17, 2003, before the U.S. Congress Committee on Ways and Means)

UNIVERSITY OF SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA NEWS
— Immersive experiences draw audience in for dialogue about diversity, equity and inclusion. Student and faculty actors bring stories of discrimination to life — and then it’s the audience’s turn to step up. – Grayson Schmidt
(COMMENT: My critics/opponents a) reject the equal opportunity (no race or gender based preference giving) plank in the Republican Party platform, b) have personally benefited or want to benefit from Affirmative Action (AA), Diversity, Equity, or Inclusion, c) have children and/or grandchildren who have benefited or who might benefit from AA, Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion, an/or d) have not had to pay the price of AA, Diversity, Equity, or Inclusion. They have no problem with Oldsmobile withdrawing a job offer that I had accepted in 1971 when I was 22 years old saying that Oldsmobile had just agreed to stop hiring Whites to settle an EEOC complaint. They have no problem with IRS and GAO promoting over me minorities and females who had a) less job-related work experience than I had, b) less job-related education that I had, and/or c) fewer professional certifications and licenses than I had.)

— First round of ‘ancestors’ chosen for Evanston’s Restorative Housing Program reparations grants, but the selection draws more criticism of the historic offering – JOSHUA IRVINE
(COMMENT: Ever-increasingly, Democrats hint/imply/argue/shout that if you are a conservative old White male Republican, the longer that your ancestors have been in America, the more that you have benefited from their discrimination against minorities and against women. How soon, if not already, will Democrats demand that conservative old White male Republicans disclose when their ancestors immigrated to America, where they immigrated from, where they lived, what they did, etc.? All my ancestors immigrated during the 1840s and 1850s from what is now Germany. They always lived in northeast Illinois. On my father’s side, they worked in a brick factory in Chicago, homesteaded a farm in southeast Crete, and then operated Crete’s only hardware store. On my mother’s side, they were share-croppers and then bought and operated a farm in Grant Park along the Indiana border.)

I earned a job-related bachelor’s degree (management-NIU) in 1970 when I was 21. I earned job-related master’s degrees when I was 27 (business-Loyola), 31 (accounting-DePaul), and 48 (finance-IIT). I earned job-related professional certifications when I was 30 (CPA), 32 (Certified Internal Auditor), 41 (Certified Fraud Examiner), 45 (Certified Government Financial Manager), 47 (Certified Financial Services Auditor), and 48 (Forensic Accountant). I earned a job-related professional license (CPA) when I was 32.)

AUTOMOTIVE NEWS
— Tough times hiring, retaining workers could persist. – JIM HENRY
(COMMENT: I wanted a career in the automotive industry. But that all ended in 1971 when I was 22 years old a) when Oldsmobile withdrew a job offer that I had accepted saying that it had just agreed to stop hiring Whites to settle an EEOC complaint and b) when my Firestone Stores boss rudely fired me for accepting that offer.)

— How to fast-track your CPA certification in college – Ally Powers
(COMMENT: I took graduate accounting courses at DePaul 1976-1980, I took the Becker CPA Review 1978-1979, and I passed the CPA examination on my first attempt in 1979. But I should have majored in accounting at UIC 1966-1968, NIU 1969-1970, and Loyola 1972-1976 and taken the examination much sooner. I worked for IRS 1971-1980 as a Revenue Officer, the last 5 1/2 year of which at the GS-12 Step 1-5 Levels, currently $88,229-$99,994/year. I should write a book about Democrat IRS Chicago office Revenue Agents who looked down on Revenue Officers. They were furious when I passed the CPA examination on my first attempt while many IRS Revenue Agents failed to do that.)

FAST COMPANY
— Why you should share all your failures in a rejection résumé – STEPHANIE VOZZA
(COMMENT: My critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes side with my Democrat superiors in the federal government who took the following adverse actions against me: My Democrat GAO superiors forced me to retire in 1997 when I was 49 years old, gave me unfair job assignments, performance expectations, and performance appraisals, always ranked me in the bottom half of my coworkers for pay-for-performance purposes, did not promote me beyond GS-13, got rid of my mentor in 1987, kept me off audits of IRS for all but 3 of the almost 18 years that I worked for GAO, and forced me to take a $20,901 (21%) pay cut in today’s dollars to transfer from IRS to GAO in 1980. My Democrat IRS superiors did not promote me beyond GS-12, disallowed my education deductions in 1978, got rid of my mentor in 1975, and disallowed my partial day per diem claims in 1974. My Democrat Post Office superiors forced me to resign in 1969 and disallowed my sick leave requests in 1969 and 1968.)

— Ready to spend like a college graduate? – Colin Beresford
(COMMENT: After you earned your bachelor’s degree, on what did you spend the money that you earned? I graduated debt-free from NIU in 1970. During the next 6 years, I helped support my mother and brother 1970-1972. I bought a new 1972 Chevrolet Corvette and a 1962 Chevrolet BelAir daily driver in 1971. I paid for tuition and books for graduate business courses at Loyola 1972-1976. I bought a new town home in University Park in 1972. I went on vacations with one of my IRS coworkers. I bought a studio condo in downtown Chicago in 1974. I bought a one bedroom condo in downtown Chicago in 1976. Much of the aforesaid was reported by Money Magazine in its February 1978 edition.)

— Brockton’s first diversity and inclusion manager has fought prejudice first-hand – Chris Helms
(COMMENT: During and after the almost 30 years that I worked for the Democrats who ran the federal government 1966-1969 and 1971-1997, I fought political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, and age discrimination first-hand. In 1988, when I was 40 years old, I became the only active member in GAO’s Chicago office in a class action lawsuit that charged GAO with reverse discrimination, age discrimination, and retaliation. In 1998, my attorney Walter T. Charlton filed Diersen v. GAO. SEE: https://gopillinois.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/09/DiersenGAOFifthAmendedComplaint.pdf )

(FROM THE ARTICLE: Former Kane County Board Chairman Chris Lauzen was among the first to file at the county clerk’s office Monday as he turned in paperwork to run for county treasurer. Democrat Jeffrey Pripusich also filed for treasurer. Lauzen, who served as county board chairman for eight years, said he wanted to be a “spending watchdog” for the county’s money. He pointed to several county expenditures he considered wasteful, including employing a lobbyist and the recent hiring of a public information officer. “If somebody is not satisfied with what’s going on in any level of government, rather than complain about it, do something about it,” said Lauzen, an accountant who also served in the Illinois Senate for 20 years.)

Henry Louis Gates Jr. and Andrew S.

During the 1840s and 1850s, all my ancestors immigrated to northeast Illinois from what is now Germany. Of course, needless-to-say, my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes have always used that against me. In my defense, I stress that my grandfather on my father’s side fought the Germans during WWI, that my uncles on my mother’s side fought the Germans during WWII, and that my father would have fought the Germans during WWII if he had not been 4-F. Further, according to http://dna.ancestry.com , my ancestry is 33% Europe West, 28% Scandinavia, 24% Great Britain, 11% Ireland, 2% Europe East, 1% Finland/Northwest Russia, and 1% Italy/Greece.

I did NOT reject a job offer in 1966 from the Democrats who ran Park Forest Post Office in 1966, instead I accepted it and worked for them until they forced me to resign in 1969. I did NOT reject pressure from my coworkers to be a union member while I worked for the Park Forest Post Office, instead, I became a member and stayed a member. I did NOT enlist, I did NOT count on the GI Bill to pay for college, instead, I got accepted by UIC, I got student draft deferments 1966-1970, and I got a financial hardship draft deferment 1970-1971 because my father died suddenly in 1969. I did NOT remain a student at UIC, instead, I transferred to NIU in early 1969 and graduated from NIU in August of 1970. I did NOT wait for a job offer in 1970 that required a bachelor’s degree in management, instead, I accepted a job offer from Firestone Stores.

I did NOT avoid the negatives of filing lawsuits, instead, I filed them and suffered tremendous retaliation from the defendants.

— Wheaton Bowl Banquet Hall – Dave Diersen
http://www.gopillinois.com

Katlyn Smith recently wrote “Once ‘the place to go,’ Wheaton Bowl to be sold to gas station developer.”
https://www.dailyherald.com/news/20220303/once-the-place-to-go-wheaton-bowl-to-be-sold-to-gas-station-developer

In 2002, I got the Milton Township Republican Organization (MTRO) to hold its monthly meetings, and many of its other events, in the Wheaton Bowl Banquet Hall, and MTRO did that until the building closed in 2019. Since 1999, I have had the best record by far for attending MTRO monthly meetings and other events. I served as MTRO webmaster 2000-2004 and 2008-2010. In addition, while I served on the Illinois Center Right Coalition (ICRC) Steering Committee 2003-2007, I got ICRC to hold many of its meetings and other events in the Banquet Hall. While I served on the ICRC Steering Committee, I had one of the best records for attending ICRC monthly meetings and other events.

Since 2002, I have written many reports on monthly meetings and other events that MTRO and ICRC have held in the Banquet Hall and a) included those reports in GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters and b) posted those reports at http://www.gopillinois.com .

Since 2002, MTRO leaders, their operatives, and their dupes have blamed me and by GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters a) for Jim Ryan being defeated by Rod Blagojevich and b) for all the other losses that Republican candidates on ballots in my precinct have suffered..

In 2004, in the Banquet Hall, MTRO leaders, their operatives, and their dupes a) ended my MTRO webmaster service and b) viciously crushed my bid to serve as MTRO Treasurer.

In 2006, in the Banquet Hall, ICRC leaders, their operatives, and their dupes almost succeeded in getting ICRC to censure me for my GOPUSA ILLINOIS emails. I should write a book about those who blamed me and blamed my GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters for Bill Brady losing to Jim Oberweis and to Judy Baar Topinka in the 2006 Illinois Republican Party gubernatorial primary.

In 2007, in the Banquet Hall, ICRC leaders, their operatives, and their dupes succeeded in throwing me off the ICRC Steering Committee.

In 2010, MTRO leaders, their operatives, and their dupes ended my MTRO webmaster service.

During 2019, MTRO leaders, their operatives, and their dupes hinted/implied/argued/shouted that my continuing success since 2009 in getting Wheaton to ban video gambling had caused Wheaton Bowl great financial harm.

I should write a book about the many extremely derrogatory things that certain past and present MTRO and ICRC leaders, their operatives, and their dupes have said about me and about my GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters in the Banquet Hall.

Further, I should also write a book about the extremely derrogatory things that certain past and present MTRO leaders, their operatives, and their dupes have said and done since 2005 to stop me from raising funds from DuPage Republicans so that DuPage Republicans could help sponsor Wheaton’d Independence Day parade and fireworks.

— This year, will Wheaton again let Republicans help sponsor its Independence Day parade and fireworks? – Dave Diersen
http://www.gopillinois.com

Last year, Wheaton stopped me from raising funds from Republicans so that Republicans could help sponsor its Independence Day parade and fireworks, something that I had done since 2005. Last year, Glen Ellyn had tremendous success in raising funds from sponsors for its Independence Day parade and fireworks. SEE: https://www.glenellyn4thofjuly.org/sponsors This year, will Wheaton again let Republicans help sponsor its Independence Day parade and fireworks? I urge the following to urge Wheaton to let me raise funds from Republicans so that Republicans can again help sponsor Wheaton’s Independence Day parade and fireworks: a) Republican candidates who will have entries in Wheaton’s Independence Day parade, b) leaders of the Milton Township Republican Organization, DuPage County Republican Central Committee, and Illinois Republican Party, c) Republican leaders of Wheaton, Wheaton Park District, Wheaton Chamber of Commerce, Wheaton Downtown Association, Milton Township, DuPage County, and Illinois, and d) Republican residents and businesses along the parade route.

— JULY 25, 2007 FLASHBACK: Republicans made parade great event – Dave Diersen
http://www.gopillinois.com

(MY LETTER TO SUBURBAN LIFE EDITOR: One of the reasons why parents bring their children to parades is to see marching bands and animals. This year, for Wheaton’s Independence Day parade and fireworks, in my roles as the http://www.GOPUSA.com Illinois editor, as the TAPROOT Republicans of Illinois chairman, and as a Milton Township Republican precinct committeeman, I had the honor of recruiting Republicans and Republican organizations to sponsor two outstanding parade entries: The Chicago Highlanders Pipes and Drums band and Big Queenie, a 38-year-old, 10,000 pound Asian female elephant. With the elephant being the proud symbol of the Republican Party, I am very happy to report that Big Queenie won the parade’s Best Political Entry award. Outstanding Republican parade entries included Joe Birkett, DuPage County District 4 (Grant Eckhoff, Mike Formento, J.R. McBride and Debra Olson), Mike Fortner, Gwen Henry, Randy Hultgren, Chris Kachiroubas, Milton Township Republican Central Committee, Ron Paul supporters, Peter Roskam, Steve Sauerberg and Bob Schillerstrom. Big Queenie, who recently visited Wheaton with the Ringling Brothers and Barnum & Bailey Circus at the DuPage County fairgrounds, walked the parade route behind Congressman Peter Roskam’s float. Many who stopped by the staging area before the parade kicked off took advantage of the opportunity to see the beautiful and very gentle elephant up close and take pictures of her. I hope that Republican sponsorship of Big Queenie and the outstanding Chicago Highlanders Pipe and Drums in the parade will become a tradition. Many thanks again to the following outstanding 30 Republicans and one Republican political organization who contributed from $50 to $250 each for a total of $3,300 to sponsor the Chicago Highlanders and/or Big Queenie: Mary Jo Arndt, Alan Bolds, Fred Bucholz, David Carlin, Roger Claar, Franco Coladipietro, Mike Connelly, Paul Daniels, Kirk Dillard, DuPage County Young Republicans, Bob Earl, Jim Flickinger, Mike Formento, Mike Fortner, Mike Gresk, Gwen Henry, Randy Hultgren, Bob Jacobsen, Chris Kachiroubas, Gary King, Mark Kmiecik, Bob Larsen, J.R. McBride, Debra Olson, Mike Prueter, Peter Roskam, Darlene Ruscitti, Leonard Sanchez, Ron Smith, Phil Suess and Tim Whelan. Also, many thanks again to All Star Printing for printing the many parade fliers that I hand-delivered to every home and business on the parade route.)

— When you were young, what did you love most about America? I was not viewed as being “college material.” Nevertheless, in1966, I got accepted by UIC and bought a new car to commute to classes there from my parent’s home in Crete with money that I saved washing dishes for the minimum wage for 18 months. In 1970, I graduated from NIU debt-free and owning a 1969 Dodge Charger SE with money that I saved working for the Park Forest Post Office for 34 months. – Dave Diersen

— Back in the “Good Old Days” – Dave Diersen
http://www.gopillinois.com

I attribute my successes in life to my upbringing. I was born a male in 1948. My parents were White Missouri Synod Lutheran (MSL) 100% German American Crete residents. They had me baptized as a MSL. They sent me to Trinity Lutheran Grade School in Crete 1953-1961. They sent me to Hope Lutheran Grade School in Park Forest 1961-1962 to stay with the Missouri Synod. They had me confirmed as a MSL at Hope Lutheran Church in 1962. They sent me to Crete-Monee High School 1962-1966.

My outstanding parents never attended college. My father was the first of his ancestors to earn a high school diploma. My mother was raised on a farm in Grant Park on the Indiana border, she never attended high school, and she stayed home and raised my brother and I. My father fought brittle type 1 diabetes from age 14, worked in the office of a nasty chemical plant in Chicago Heights, almost always worked second jobs to pay the family’s bills, and died suddenly of heart failure in 1969 when he was 47 and I was 21.

My outstanding parents provided me with room and board in their home in Crete while I completed courses at UIC 1966-1968 and worked for the Park Forest Post Office 1966-1969.

Were it not for my upbringing, I would not have been able to earn a) a job-related bachelor’s degree in management from NIU when I was 21 in 1970 and job-related master’s degrees when I was 27 (business-Loyola), 31 (accounting-DePaul), and 48 (financial markets and trading-IIT), b) job-related professional certifications when I was 30 (CPA), 32 (Certified Internal Auditor), 41 (Certified Fraud Examiner), 45 (Certified Government Financial Manager), 47 (Certified Financial Services Auditor), and 48 (Forensic Accountant), and c) a job-related professional license (CPA) when I was 32.

Were it not for my upbringing, the Post Office would not have hired me in 1966. The Post Office hired me in 1966 because it could not find a qualified Democrat, minority, female, or veteran who would take the job. Firestone Stores would not have hired me in 1970. Oldsmobile would not have offered me a job in 1971. IRS would not have hired me in 1971. IRS hired me in 1971 because it could not find a qualified Democrat, minority, female, or veteran who would take the job. IRS would not promoted me in 1972, 1973, and 1974. GAO would not have hired me in 1980. GAO hired me in 1980 because it could not find a qualified Democrat, minority, female, younger person, or veteran who would take the job. GAO would not have promoted me in 1986 and GAO would have forced me to retire much sonner than it did in 1997. In 1997, in today’s dollars, my GAO salary was $136,387/year.

Were it not for my upbringing, I would not have been able to buy a new town home in University Park in 1972, a studio condo in downtown Chicago in 1974, and a one bedroom condo in downtown Chicago in 1976. Were it not for my upbringing, my wife and I would not have been able to buy a home in Wheaton in 1978 and to have one built in Wheaton in 1984.

Were it not for my upbringing, I would not have been able to buy new cars in 1966, 1967, 1968, 1971, 1973, etc. and collector cars in 1989 and 1994.

Back in the “Good Old Days:”

— Fathers could earn enough money that mothers could stay home and raise their children.

— The Republican Party strongly promoted individual responsibility, that is, the Republican Party opposed the promotion of dependency on government and dependency on charity.

— The Republican Party strongly promoted traditional marriage and the traditional family, that is, the Republican Party opposed the promotion of LGBTQ.

— The Republican Party strongly promoted right to life, that is, the Republican Party opposed the promotion of abortion.

— The Republican Party strongly promoted enforcement of immigration laws, that is, the Republican Party opposed the promotion of mass/illegal immigration.

— The Republican Party strongly promoted enforcement of drug laws, that is, the Republican Party opposed the legalization of pot.

— The Republican Party strongly opposed the promotion of vices, that is, the Republican Party opposed the promotion of booze, gambling, pot, and other vices.

— The Republican Party strongly opposed more gun control laws.

— The Republican Party strongly promoted equal opportunity, that is, it opposed race and gender based preference giving, that is, it opposed reverse discrimination and age discrimination.

If there was as much reverse discrimination in 1966 as there is today, I doubt that the Post Office would have hired me or UIC would have accepted me.

If there was as much reverse discrimination in 1969 as there is today, I doubt that NIU would have accepted me.

If there was as much reverse discrimination in 1970 as there is today, I doubt that Firestone Stores would have hired me.

If there was as much reverse discrimination in 1971 as there is today, I doubt that Oldsmobile would have offered me a job.

If there was as much reverse discrimination in 1971 as there is today, I doubt that IRS would have hired me or promoted me in 1972, 1973, or 1974.

If there was as much reverse discrimination in 1972 as there is today, I doubt that Loyola would have accepted me.

If there was as much reverse discrimination in 1976 as there is today, I doubt that DePaul would have accepted me.

If there was as much reverse discrimination and age discrimination in 1980 as there is today, I doubt that GAO would have hired me or promoted me in 1986 or let me work until I was 49 in 1997.

If there was as much reverse discrimination and age discrimination in 1992 as there is today, I doubt that IIT would have accepted me.

Career-wise, my “Good Old Days” include 1972, 1973, and 1974 when my IRS mentor promoted me to GS-9 (currently $60,840/year), GS-11 (currently $73,611/year), and GS-12 (currently $88,229/year). But then, my Democrat IRS superiors got rid of my mentor and everything went downhill from there. Career-wise, my “Good Old Days” also include 1986, 1987, and 1988 when my GAO mentor got me assigned to audits of IRS and promoted me to GS-13 (currently $104,915/year). But then, my Democrat GAO superiors got rid of my mentor and everything went downhill from there. Education-wise, my “Good Old Days” include 1970 when I earned a bachelor’s degree in management from NIU, 1976 when I earned an MBA from Loyola, 1980 when I earned a master’s degree in accounting from DePaul, and 1997 when I earned a master’s degree in financial markets and trading from IIT. My professional certification and professional license “Good Old Days” include 1979 when I passed the CPA examination on my first attempt and 1981 when I passed the Certified Internal Auditor examination on my first attempt and became a licensed CPA. Real estate-wise, my “Good Old Days” include 1972, 1974, and 1976 when I bought real estate and 1978 and 1984 when my wife and I bought real estate. New car-wise, my “Good Old Days” include 1966, 1967, 1968, 1971, etc. when I bought news cars and 1989 and 1994 when bought collector cars. My greatest “Good Old Days” include every day since I got married in 1978. But were it not for my upbringing, there would not have been any “Good Old Days.”

— Which Republican candidates for U.S. Senate, congressional, and statewide offices spoke at the Illinois Republican Party State Central Committee meeting Saturday morning January 26, 2022, in Bolingbrook? – Dave Diersen
http://www.gopillinois.com

If I was still the TAPROOT Republicans of Illinois chairman, the organization would still be hosting candidate forums, and especially for candidates for U.S. Senate, congressional, statewide, Illinois Senate, Illinois House, DuPage countywide, DuPage County board, DuPage Forest Preserve, and judicial offices. I should write a book about my critic/opponents a) who objected to the candidates that I invited to participate in candidate forums and b) who objected to those who I invited to speak at TAPROOT events.

It would be great if the Illinois Republican Party would post on its website the federal, statewide, Illinois Senate, Illinois House, and judicial offices that will be on June 28, 2022 Republican primary ballots in Illinois and the announced candidates for those offices.

It would be great if the 102 Republican county party organizations would post on their websites the federal, statewide, Illinois Senate, Illinois House, judicial, countywide, county board, and forest preserve offices that will be on June 28, 2022 Republican primary ballots in their county the announced candidates for those offices.

It would be great if the Republican township party organizations would post on their websites the federal, statewide, Illinois Senate, Illinois House, judicial, countywide, county board, and forest preserve offices that will be on June 28, 2022 Republican primary ballots in their county the announced candidates for those offices.

http://www.gopillinois.com

Dennis Anderson recently wrote that “Shaw readers to determine questions for candidates.” SEE: https://www.shawlocal.com/northwest-herald/opinion/column/2022/02/21/anderson-shaw-readers-to-determine-questions-for-candidates/

What offices will be on June 28, 2022 Republican primary ballots in your precinct, who are the announced candidates for those offices, and how much do you know about them?

Nathan L. Gonzales recently wrote “The death of the conservative label. CPAC organizer doesn’t use the c-word any more.” SEE: https://rollcall.com/2022/02/24/the-death-of-the-conservative-label/ S. E. Cupp recently wrote “Conservatism is dead in this GOP.

Political parties exist to help elect candidates who can and will defend their platform. The Republican Party platform is conservative. It promotes individual responsibility, traditional marriage and family, right to life, enforcement of immigration laws, enforcement of drug laws, Second Amendment rights, and equal opportunity, that is, nor race or gender based preference giving. It opposes the promotion of dependence on government, dependency on charity, LGBTQ, abortion, mass/illegal immigration, booze, gambling, pot, and other vices, more gun control, political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, and age discrimination.

I should write a book about the success that hate-filled conservative-hating conservative-haters have had in destroying conservativism in America, in Illinois, in DuPage County, in Milton Township, in Wheaton, and in my precinct. I would focus on RINO leaders of Illinois, DuPage County, Milton Township, Wheaton, Wheaton Park District, Wheaton Chamber of Commerce (WCC), Illinois Republican Party, DuPage County Republican Central Committee, Milton Township Republican Organization (MTRO), etc.

I would focus on the aforesaid a) who stopped me from raising funds from DuPage County Republicans so that DuPage County Republicans could help sponsor Wheaton’s 2021 Independence Day parade and fireworks, b) who promoted LGBTQ big time in downtown Wheaton in 2020, c) who gerrymandered my precinct in 2015, d) who ended my TAPROOT Republicans of Illinois chairmanship in 2012, e) who ended my WCC Government Affairs Committee membership in 2011, f) who ended my MTRO webmaster service in 2010 and 2004, g) who ended my Illinois Center Right Coalition (ICRC) Steering Committee membership in 2007, h) who tried to get ICRC to censure me for my GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters in 2006, i) who ended my American Association of Political Consultants Midwest Chapter board membership in 2004, and j) who viciously ended my bid to serve as MTRO Treasurer in 2004.

I would focus on Republican candidates on ballots in my precinct since 2000, their political consultants, major donors, fundraisers, pollsters, campaign managers, campaign staff members, campaign volunteers, etc.

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

— Political parties exist to help elect candidates who can and will defend and advance their platform. – Dave Diersen
http://www.gopillinois.com

The Chicago Tribune recently asked “For candidates, how important is toeing the party line? SEE: https://www.chicagotribune.com/suburbs/aurora-beacon-news/opinion/ct-abn-stanford-column-st-0227-20220227-lq2ybhdgzvcpzawpt5co2zs4q4-story.html

Political parties exist to help elect candidates who can and will defend and advance their platform. The Republican Party platform is conservative. But tragically, ever-increasingly, since at least the 1970s, the Illinois Republican Party (IRP) has been dominated by anti-conservative RINOs who reject the 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.

I should write a book about the aforesaid anti-conservative RINOs, their operatives, and their dupes. They focus on driving conservatives like me out of the IRP, that is, driving platform Republicans like me out of the IRP as well as the DuPage County Republican Central Committee, and Milton Township Republican Organization (MTRO).

I would focus on past and present anti-conservative RINO leaders of the IRP, DuPage County Republican Organization, and MTRO. I would focus on past and present anti-conservative RINO leaders of Illinois, DuPage County, Milton Township, Wheaton, Wheaton’s West District, Wheaton Chamber of Commerce, Wheaton Downtown Association, and Wheaton Park District.

I would focus on the aforesaid a) who stopped me from raising funds from DuPage County Republicans so that DuPage County Republicans could help sponsor Wheaton’s 2021 Independence Day parade and fireworks, b) who promoted LGBTQ big time in downtown Wheaton in 2020, c) who gerrymandered my precinct in 2015, d) who ended my TAPROOT Republicans of Illinois chairmanship in 2012, e) who ended my WCC Government Affairs Committee membership in 2011, f) who ended my MTRO webmaster service in 2010 and 2004, g) who ended my Illinois Center Right Coalition (ICRC) Steering Committee membership in 2007, h) who tried to get ICRC to censure me for my GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters in 2006, i) who ended my American Association of Political Consultants Midwest Chapter board membership in 2004, and j) who viciously ended my bid to serve as MTRO Treasurer in 2004.

Tim Hetzner recently wrote “The Power Of Influence.” SEE: https://www.lutheranchurchcharities.org/devotions.html

What influence do you have? I have been a Republican Precinct Committeeman since 1999. I have been the GOPUSA Illinois Editor since 2000. I raised funds from DuPage County Republicans so that DuPage County Republicans could help sponsor Wheaton’s Independence Day parades and fireworks 2005-2019. I served as the TAPROOT Republicans of Illinois chairman 2005-2012. I served as a Wheaton Chamber of Commerce (WCC) Government Affairs Committee (GAC) member 2003-2011. I served as the Milton Township Republican Organization (MTRO) webmaster 2008-2010 and 2000-2004. I served as an Illinois Center Right Coalition (ICRC) Steering Committee (SC) member 2003-2007. I served as an American Association of Political Consultants (AAPC) Midwest Chapter (MC) board member 2001-2004.

What do you use that influence for? I have always used my influence to help elect candidates who can and will defend and advance the Republican Party platform, and especially its traditional marriage/family, right to life, immigration, illegal drugs, Second Amendment, and equal opportunity (no race or gender based preference giving) planks.

Who has done the most to reduce/end your influence? I should write a book about those who have done the most to reduce/end my influence.

While I worked for the Post Office 1966-1969, for IRS 1971-1980 and for GAO 1980-1997, I demonstrated far more dedication to the job than my superiors, supervisors, coworkers, and subordinates.

Very few of my superiors, supervisors, coworkers, and subordinates took job-related college courses. I earned a job-related bachelor’s degree in 1970 and job-related master’s degrees in 1976, 1980, and 1997.

Very few of my superiors, supervisors, coworkers, and subordinates earned job-related professional certifications. I earned job-related professional certifications 1979, 1981, 1990, 1994, 1996, and 1997.

Very few of my superiors, supervisors, coworkers, and subordinates earned job-related professional licenses. I earned a job-related professional license in 1981.

— Assuming that I fully recover, a) what should I do with my http://www.gopillinois.com website and b) should I resume spending 10+ hours each and every day putting together GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters and sending them out like I did each and every morning since 2004 and each and every evening since 2015? For now, a) I list the websites on my website that I drew many of the articles from that I posted links to and b) I post articles that I write. Your suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Assuming that I fully recover, in my opinion, the main reasons why I should resume sending out the two newsletters a day ASAP is the fact that a) the June 28 Republican primary is rapidly approaching and b) the Illinois Republican communication void that I filled with those newsletters continues to exist. No one has done what I did. I sent out a newsletter each and every morning and each and every evening with links to articles of interest to Illinois Republicans that were posted on websites during the previous 12 hours. Between 2004 and January 9 of this year, those newsletters included links to 418,528 articles and information on many upcoming events.

Assuming that I fully recover, in my opinion, the main reasons why I should not resume sending out those newsletters is the fact that my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes continue to do everything that they can a) to stop me from sending out the newsletters and b) to stop everyone from reading the newsletters. Further, when my critics/opponents have taken adverse actions against me, far too few of those who read the newsletters have come to my defense. – Dave Diersen

Why GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters are stopped for now – Dave Diersen

http://www.gopillinois.com

— In 2004, I started putting together and sending out GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters each and every morning. In 2015, I started putting together and sending out GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters each and every evening too.

But for the first time, on Monday, January 10, 2022, a major health problem stopped me from doing that. I slipped and fell on ice hitting my head, right ear, and back while retrieving newspapers from my driveway apron early that Monday morning. I was in the intensive care unit at Central DuPage Hospital (CDH) Monday and Tuesday, and in a regular room Wednesday, and I was discharged late that afternoon.

But things went from bad to worse and I was readmitted to CDH on Sunday, January 16, 2022. I was found to have phenomena, a small stroke, and a urinary tract infection. I was subsequently discharged to Marianjoy rehabilition center and then recently discharged from Marianjoy. Then, I was diagnosed with major blood clots in my legs.

I am far from being back on “eight cylinders.” I continue to have severe headaches, severe aches and pains, and major problems standing, sitting, walking, urinating, defecating, sleeping, etc. I have lost almost all my hearing in my right ear. I have lost lots of sleep. All the many medications that I have to take have many severe side effects.

Of course, my goal is to get back on “eight cylinders” ASAP, but my speed of recovery is slow. It may be weeks if not months until I can again spend 10+ hours each and every day putting GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters together and sending them out. Until then, I focus on keeping http://www.gopillinois.com current and posting more articles on it that I have written.

Of course, many thanks to my outstanding wife and many thanks to those who have phoned me, emailed me, sent me get well cards, sent me flowers, etc.

— Diersen runs for 12th term as DuPage County Milton Township Precinct 9 Republican Precinct Committeeman in Wheaton – Dave Diersen

http://www.gopillinois.com

This morning, Thursday, February 10, I sent the following letter to the approximate 150 Republican voters in my precinct in their approximate 100 homes:

Dear fellow DuPage County Milton Township Precinct 9 Republicans:

I have been greatly honored to serve as the DuPage County Milton Township Precinct 9 Republican Committeeman since 1999. I am running again to serve another 2-year term starting June 28 notwithstanding the fact that I suffered a serious injury to my head and right ear and I have not yet fully recovered. I slipped and fell on ice early Monday January 10 while I was getting the newspapers on my driveway.

My outstanding wife and several of my outstanding fellow Milton Township Republican Precinct Committeemen have volunteered to circulate the nominating petitions so that I can file them on March 7 to be on the June 28 DuPage County Milton Township Precinct 9 Republican primary ballot. If you might be interested in signing my nominating petition, please phone me at 630-653-0462 or email me at diersen@aol.com ASAP.

I hope to be recovered soon enough so that I can bring to your home a copy of the sample ballot and campaign literature from the candidates as soon as they are available. But if not, I will prepare envelopes with the aforesaid documents and several of my outstanding fellow Milton Township Republican Precinct Committeemen have agreed to deliver them to your home for me. Sadly, this will be the first time that I cannot gather signatures for the candidates for a primary. I have the best record for attending Milton Township Republican Organization meetings and fundraisers since 1999.

For information on which offices and which candidates will be on the ballot, please visit https://illinois.gop/  and https://www.dupagegop.com/ and https://miltongop.org/ .

For information on voter registration, voting by mail, and early voting, please visit https://dupageco.org/election/ or phone the DuPage County Election Division at 630-407-5600.

Of course, please feel free to contact me with any comments or questions that you might have.

Again, I have been greatly honored to serve as your Republican Committeeman. I would greatly appreciate your vote for me on the June 28 Republican primary ballot. I will do everything that I can to help elect those Republican candidates who win the June 28 primary election to also win the November 8 general election.

Thanks again,

Dave Diersen

— Steering Democrats to precincts – Dave Diersen

http://www.gopillinois.com

From what I see watching home purchases in my precinct since 1984, it ever-increasing looks like Democrat realtors steer home buyers to my precinct who are Democrat, moderate, liberal, LGBTQ, non-Protestant, and/or non-German American. Ever-increasingly, it looks like Democrat realtors stress to potential home buyers a) that ever-increasingly, Democrats get more votes in the precinct, for example, Biden got 269 votes while Trump got only 157, b) that there are LGBTQ-promoting churches immediately north and south of the precinct, c) that the Wheaton Warrenville School District 200 Administration Headquarters is in the precinct, and d) that a grade school and middle school are in the precinct.

SPRINGFIELD STATE JOURNAL REGISTER
— AUGUST 16, 2012 FLASHBACK: A bunch of political info — daily – Bernard Schoenburg (COMMENT: I started sending out GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters in 2000. Between January 1, 2005 and January 9, 2022, those newsletters when out each and every morning, and between January 1, 2016 and January 9, 2022, they went out each and every evening too. Those newsletters included links to 418,528 articles and information on many upcoming events.
https://www.sj-r.com/story/news/state/2012/08/16/bernard-schoenburg-bunch-political-info/41733104007/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: There are lots of websites that compile political news, and I think it’s time I share one that I find quite interesting. It’s at www.gopillinois.com, and, as you can tell by its address, it has a Republican flavor. That is an understatement reinforced with the comments added by the compiler himself — DAVID DIERSEN of Wheaton. He introduced a recent UPI story about Republicans’ views on the drought and wildfires by saying: “Democrats blame everything bad, including bad weather, on Republicans, especially on Republicans who are conservative, White, male, older, non-poor and non-veteran.” And talking of a New York Times article about a photographer arrested while on assignment in the Bronx, Diersen wrote that since 2000, he has been thrown out of, barred from, or not advised of news conferences “by Democrats, Democrat plants, RINOs (Republicans in name only), their operatives, and their dupes.” Thus, if you don’t want to read some very pointed comments, you may not want to go to http://www.gopillinois.com. But you would be missing a treasure of links to the day’s news and opinion. Diersen, 63, is a retired federal employee who became the Illinois editor of a national GOP website in 2000, and since 2004 has put out his own Illinois compilation every day. There’s usually about 50 articles daily, he says. He’s generally up by 3 a.m. He says he spends at least 10 hours a day on this passion of his, with no pay, and has put out links to more than 117,000 articles. As his comments above hinted, party regulars don’t always greet his work with relish. He includes dissident voices within the GOP tent, and some whose credibility is questionable. But he puts it all out there. He’s a GOP precinct committeeman, and he believes in people having information. He also wants to help elect Republican candidates who “will defend and advance the party’s platform.” The site makes available plenty of Diersen history, too, including how his “liberal Democrat superiors,” in his view, forced him to take early retirement at 49 from the U.S. General Accounting Office, “because of his opposition to race and gender based preference and his participation in a class action lawsuit” on that subject. He wouldn’t mind my telling you that he also passed his CPA and Certified Internal Auditor exams on first attempts more than three decades ago. Agree or disagree with him, but Diersen provides a bunch of interesting information — every day.)

— What should motivate Republicans to help elect Republican candidates – Dave Diersen

http://www.gopillinois.com

Political parties exist to help elect candidates who can and will defend and advance their platform. The Republican Party platform is conservative. The platform promotes individual responsibility, traditional marriage and family, right to life, enforcement of immigration laws, enforcement of illegal drug laws, defense of Second Amendment rights, and equal opportunity, that is, no race or gender based preference giving. The platform opposes promotion of dependency on government and charity, LGBTQ, abortion, mass/illegal immigration, pot, gambling, booze, and other vices, more gun control laws, reverse discrimination, and age discrimination.

Beyond tragically, ever-increasingly, Republican candidates in Illinois fail/refuse to defend/advance the aforesaid planks in the Republican Party platform. Ever-increasingly, they promote dependency on government and charity, LGBTQ, abortion, mass/illegal immigration, pot, gambling, booze, and other vices, more gun control laws, reverse discrimination, and age discrimination.

Beyond tragically, ever-increasingly, to get votes from Democrats, Libertarians, Greens, Independents, and RINOs, Republican candidates in Illinois hint/imply/argue/shout that they are anti-religious, anti-conservative, and/or anti-Republican.

Beyond tragically, ever-increasingly, Republican candidates in Illinois who reject the aforesaid planks in the Republican Party platform focus on a) getting rid of Republicans like me who support the aforesaid planks and b) getting rid of organizations like TAPROOT Republicans of Illinois and Illinois Center Right Coalition (ICRC) that support the aforesaid planks.

I should write a book about Republican candidates in Illinois, their operatives, and their dupes who have worked the hardest since 2000 a) to get rid of Republicans like me who support the aforesaid planks in the Republican Party platform and b) to get rid of organizations like TAPROOT and ICRC that support the aforesaid planks. I would focus on those who have done the most to destroy the Illinois Republican Party, DuPage County Republican Central Committee, Milton Township Republican Organization (MTRO), TAPROOT, and ICRC.  I would focus on those who have taken the most/strongest adverse actions against me including a) stopping me from raising funds from DuPage Republicans so that DuPage Republicans could help sponsor Wheaton’s Independence Day parade in fireworks in 2021, b) gerrymandering my DuPage County Milton Township Precinct 9 in 2015, c) ending my TAPROOT chairmanship in 2012, d) ending my Wheaton Chamber of Commerce Government Affairs Committee membership in 2011, e) ending my MTRO webmaster service in 2010 and 2004, f) ending my ICRC Steering Committee membership in 2007, g) almost getting ICRC to censure me for my GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters in 2006, h) viciously ending my bid to serve as MTRO treasure in 2004, and h) ending my American Association of Political Consultants Midwest Chapter board of directors service in 2004. I would focus on the aforesaid who have done the most a) to stop me from sending out GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters and b) to stop everyone from reading hose newsletters.

I hope that many religious, conservative, and Republican organizations in Illinois will soon rate all the Republican candidates on June 28, 2022 ballots in Illinois on their promotion/rejection of the aforesaid planks in the Republican Party platform.

— Non-Republicans use Critical Race Theory to destroy Republicans – Dave Diersen

http://www.gopillinois.com

Non-Republicans use Critical Race Theory (CRT) to destroy Republicans, and especially to destroy Republicans who are law enforcement officers, Trump supporters, conservative, patriotic, White, male, older, heterosexual, married, non-poor, gun owners, Christian, Protestant, Italian American, German American, and/or those whose ancestors have been in America for a long time. Non-Republicans use CRT to hint/imply/argue/shout that the more of the aforesaid that Republicans are, the more that they, their parents, their grandparents, their great grandparents, and the rest of their ancestors have been in America, the more that they have benefited from slavery and from discrimination against minorities and females. Non-Republicans use CRT to hint/imply/argue/shout that Republicans are White supremacists, Nazis, KKK members, haters, racists, sexists, bigots, and even worse things who should be gotten rid of once and for all.

Republican activists, candidates, elected officials, party leaders, major donors, political consultants, fundraisers, pollsters, campaign managers, campaign staff members, campaign volunteers, etc. who do not oppose CRT are non-Republicans a) who reject the equal opportunity (no race or gender based preference giving) plank in the Republican Party platform and b) promote reverse discrimination and age discrimination.

Last April, Wheaton’s first-ever “Racialized Minorities Recognition Ceremony” got some criticism and tellingly, a YouTube video for the event had the comments turned off. In an interview last April with the magazine Sojourners, Wheaton philosophy professor Nathan Cartagena said teaching his class on critical race theory was “much harder” because some students were saying the theory “is of the devil.” Cartagena did not respond to a request by Newsweek for comment.” SEE: https://www.newsweek.com/angry-debate-over-critical-race-theory-splits-christian-colleges-1678626

Democrats run GAO, IRS, and the Post Office. GAO hired me in 1980 because it could not find a qualified Democrat, minority, female, younger person, or veteran who would take the job.

The Post Office hired me in 1966 because it could not find a qualified Democrat, minority, female, or veteran who would take the job.

They picked me because I was Republican, draft avoider, conservative, White, male, Protestant, German American, and my ancestors have been in America for a long time. They picked me because I was a union member while I worked for the Post Office 1966-1969 and while I worked for IRS 1971-1980. They picked me because I opposed race and gender based preference giving. They picked me because in 1988, I became the only active member in GAO’s Chicago office in a class action lawsuit that charged reverse discrimination, age discrimination, and retaliation. They took many adverse actions against me and forced me to take their early retirement “offer” in 1997 when I was 49 years old.

Would Deloitte have hired me If Deloitte had been hiring a Forensic Accountant in 1997 when I was 49 years old after my Democrat GAO superiors forced me to take their early retirement “offer?” If not, why not? I became a Forensic Accountant in 1997 when I was 48 years old. I became a Certified Financial Services Auditor in 1996. I became a Certified Government Financial Manager in 1994, I became a Certified Fraud Examiner in 1990. I became a licensed CPA in 1981. I passed the Certified Internal Auditor examination on my first attempt in 1981. I passed the CPA examination on my first attempt in 1997. I earned a master’s degree in financial markets and institutions from IIT in 1997. I earned a master’s degree in accounting from DePaul in 1980. I earned an MBA from Loyola in 1976. I worked for GAO 1980-1997, the last 11 years of which at the GS-13 Step 1-10 Levels, currently $104,914-$136,387/year and the last 8 of those years on audits of federal financial regulators. Further, I had worked for IRS 1971-1980, the last 5 1/2 years of which at the GS-12 Step 1-5 Levels, currently $88,229-$99,994/year.

I believe that Deloitte would not have hired me a) because I am a conservative White male Missouri Synod Lutheran German American non-veteran Republican born in 1948, b) because I have always opposed political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, and age discrimination, c) because I became an active member in a class action lawsuit in 1988 that charged my Democrat GAO superiors with reverse discrimination, age discrimination, and retaliation, and d) because of the many adverse actions that my Democrat GAO, IRS, and Post Office superiors had taken against me.

— What has shaped your views on Blacks – Dave Diersen

http://www.gopillinois.com

James Krohe Jr. has published a book titled “The Black Man’s President Abraham Lincoln’s legacy on race, reconsidered, stands up to critics.” SEE: https://www.illinoistimes.com/springfield/the-black-mans-president/Content?oid=14717546 The book focuses on what shaped Lincoln’s views on race.

All that I can recall about everyone around me concerning Blacks, including my parents, my grandparents, my brother, my relatives, my neighbors, my classmates, my superiors, my supervisors, my coworkers, my subordinates, etc., is compassion for Blacks.

What has shaped your views on Blacks? I had extremely little interaction with Blacks while I attended Trinity Lutheran Grade School in Crete 1953-1961, Hope Lutheran Grade School in Park Forest 1961-1962, Crete-Monee High School 1962-1966, UIC 1966-1968, NIU 1969-1970, Loyola 1972-1976, DePaul 1976-1980, Becker CPA Review 1978-1979, Roosevelt 1980-1981, and IIT 1992-1997.

I had extremely little interaction with Blacks while I did yard work and delivered newspapers in Crete 1962-1964. I had little interaction with Blacks while I washed dishes in Chicago Heights 1964-1966; cleaned golf shoes in Flossmoor, chipped slag in South Chicago Heights, and pumped gasoline in South Chicago Heights in 1966; worked on an automobile assembly line and as a security guard in DeKalb in 1970; sold tires, automotive services, and major appliances in Chicago Heights 1970-1971; and pumped gasoline in Chicago Heights 1971-1972. None of my superiors or supervisors were Blacks.

I had some interaction with Blacks while I delivered mail for the Park Forest Post Office 1966-1969. Some of my coworkers were Blacks, but none of my superiors or supervisors were Black. Some of the residences that I delivered mail to were occupied by Blacks.

In 1971, Oldsmobile withdrew a job offer that I had accepted saying that it had just agreed to stop hiring Whites to settle an EEOC complaint. That resulted in a) my Firestone Store boss firing me and b) my accepting a job offer from IRS.

I had lots of interactions with Blacks while I collected delinquent taxes for IRS in Harvey 1972-1973, in Joliet 1973-1974, and in Chicago 1971 and 1973-1980. Many of my coworkers were Blacks and many of the delinquent taxes that I collected were from Blacks. One of my IRS supervisors was Black while I worked in Chicago 1974-1976. He treated me far more fairly than the Asian American supervisor that I had immediately before him.

I had lots of interactions with Blacks while I audited federal agencies for GAO in Chicago 1980-1997. Some of my superiors and supervisors were Black and many of my coworkers and subordinates were Black. In 1997, when I was 49 years old, my Democrat GAO superiors a) forced me to take their early retirement “offer” and b) gave my job and my preferred corner office to my Black subordinate. While I served on the Executive Committee (EC) of the Association of Government Accountants Chicago Chapter 1983-1996, some of my fellow EC members were Black.

I bought a new town home in University Park in 1972. I lived in it full-time 1972-1974 and then weekends 1974-1976. I rented it out 1976-1984 and I sold it in 1984. Of course, that involved interactions with Blacks.

My Democrat IRS superiors got rid of him in 1975. If they had not done that, he would soon have promoted me to GS-13 (currently $104,915/year).

If my Democrat GAO superiors had not forced my mentor to retire, they would not have been able to a) not promote me to GS-14, b) throw me off audits of IRS, c) give me unfair job assignments, d) give me unfair performance expectations, e) give me unfair performance appraisals, f) always rank me in the bottom half of my coworkers for pay-for-performance purposes, and g) force me to retire in 1997 when I was 49 years old.

— I have been fighting age discrimination since I was 25 years old in 1973. – Dave Diersen

http://gopillinois.com

I have been fighting age discrimination since I was 25 years old in 1974. The Democrats who run the federal government use Affirmative Action, Diversity, Inclusion, political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, age discrimination, up-or-out, unfair job assignments, unfair performance expectations, unfair performance appraisals, budget cuts, early outs, etc. to get rid of their employees like me who are Republican, White, male, and/or non-veteran who they fail/refuse to promote to GS-13 (currently $104,915/year) by age 25, GS-14 (currently $123,978/year) by age 30, GS-15 (currently $145,831/year) by age 35, and Senior Executive Service (currently $176,300/year) by age 40. While I made GS-12 (currently $88,229/year) when I was 25 in 1974, my Democrat IRS superiors failed/refused to promote me to GS-13. I did not make GS-13 until I was 38 years old in 1986. My Democrat GAO superiors forced me to take their early retirement “offer” in 1997 when I was 49 years old. Previously, they had given me unfair job assignments, given me unfair performance expectations, given me unfair performance appraisals, always ranked me in the bottom half of my coworkers for pay-for-performance purposes, did not promote me beyond GS-13, got rid of my mentor in 1987, kept me off audits of IRS for all but 3 of the almost 18 years that I worked for GAO, and forced me to take a $20,901 (21%) pay cut in today’s dollars to transfer from IRS to GAO in 1980.

Starting when I was 25, I complained about political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, and age discrimination. In 1988, when I was 40 years old, I became the only employee in GAO’s Chicago office who was an active member in a class action lawsuit that charged GAO with reverse discrimination, age discrimination, and retaliation. In 1998, I filed a lawsuit against GAO charging political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, age discrimination, and retaliation. SEE: https://gopillinois.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/09/DiersenGAOFifthAmendedComplaint.pdf for the fifth amended complaint filed April 25, 2001. The lawsuit was filed by Annapolis, Maryland Attorney Walter T. Charlton in July of 1998 in the United States District Court for the District of Columbia.  In April of 2000, it was initially transferred to Judge Robert W. Gettleman in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Illinois as Case No, 00cv2437, and then to Judge Amy St. Eve. Eve granted GAO summary judgement and the United States Court of Appeals for the 7th Circuit upheld that ruling in 2005.

Tragically for me, far too many Republican elected officials in Illinois have no problem with using Affirmative Action, Diversity, Inclusion, political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, age discrimination, up-or-out, unfair job assignments, unfair performance expectations, unfair performance appraisals, budget cuts, early outs, etc. get rid of those like me who they cannot manipulate or dominate, who refuse to glorify and praise them, who refuse to pander to them, who refuse to serve as one of their operatives or dupes, who refuse to cover up their wrongdoing, and/or who refuse to give them money.

Tragically for me, far too many Republican elected officials in Illinois a) reject the equal opportunity (no race or gender based preference giving) plank in the Republican Party platform and b) believe that federal employees who are veterans should receive preference all through their careers and not just for hiring.

— What do you say to those who despise/hate German Americans? – Dave Diersen

http://www.gopillinois.com

What is your national origin? During the 1840s and 1850s, all my ancestors immigrated to northeast Illinois from what is now Germany. Of course, needless-to-say, my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes have always used that against me. In my defense, I stress that my grandfather on my father’s side fought the Germans during WWI, that my uncles on my mother’s side fought the Germans during WWII, and that my father would have fought the Germans during WWII if he had not been 4-F. Further, according to http://dna.ancestry.com, my ancestry is 33% Europe West, 28% Scandinavia, 24% Great Britain, 11% Ireland, 2% Europe East, 1% Finland/Northwest Russia, and 1% Italy/Greece. Many, if not most of my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes are anti-German-American. What if from the beginning I had pretended to be Swedish-American? While all my ancestors immigrated from what is now Germany to northeast Illinois during the 1840s and 1850s, according to DNA Ancestry at http://dna.ancestry.com, my ancestry is 33% Europe West, 28% Scandinavia, 24% Great Britain, 11% Ireland, 2% Europe East, 1% Finland/Northwest Russia, and 1% Italy/Greece.

— How do you respond to your critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes who demonize, denigrate, and condemn you by demonizing, denigrating, and condemning your hometown? – Dave Diersen

http://www.gopillinois.com

Government is nasty. Politics is nasty.

I should write a book about my nasty “Republican” critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes in Wheaton, Milton Township, DuPage County, and Cook County who have demonized, denigrated, and condemned me the most by demonizing, denigrating, and condemning my hometown of Crete.

I lived in Crete 1948-1972. My outstanding parents were 100% German-Lutherans who had me baptized as a Missouri Synod Lutheran (MSL) in Trinity Lutheran Church in Crete in 1948. They sent me to Trinity Lutheran Grade School in Crete 1953-1961 and then to Hope Lutheran Grade School in Park Forest 1961-1962 to stay with the Missouri Synod. They had me confirmed as a MSL at Hope Lutheran Church in 1962 and sent me to Crete-Monee High School 1962-1966. I lived with my parents in their home in Crete and my brother 1954-1972 and a) while I took courses at UIC 1966-1968, b) weekends during my first semester at NIU in 1969, c) the summer of 1969, d) while I worked for the Firestone Store in Chicago Heights 1970-1972, e) while I worked for IRS in Chicago 1971 and for IRS in Harvey in 1972 , and f) while I took graduate business courses at Loyola in 1972.

My nasty “Republican” critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes in Wheaton, Milton Township, DuPage County, and Cook County hinted/implied/argued/shouted that while I lived in Crete 1948-1972, Crete was full of disgusting German-MSLs who were White supremacists, Nazis, KKK members, haters, racists, sexists, bigots, and even worse things.

— Democracy – Dave Diersen

http://www.gopillinois.com

For Democrats, “democracy” is what Democrats use to take opportunities, income, assets, etc. away from Republicans. Ever-increasingly, Democrat candidates hint/imply/argue/shout that if elected, they will use government to take opportunities, income, assets, etc. away from Republicans, and especially from Republicans who are law enforcement officers, Trump supporters, conservative, patriotic, White, male, older, heterosexual, married, non-poor, gun owners, Christian, Protestant, Italian American, German American, and/or those whose ancestors have been in America for a long time.

Expect that ever-increasingly, hate-filled Trump-hating “old guard Republicans” will not only denounce Trump-supporters, they will denounce conservatives, that is, they will denounce platform Republicans, that is, they will denounce Republicans, that is, they will denounce the Republican Party. I should write a book about hate-filled Trump-hating past and present leaders of the Illinois Republican Party, DuPage County Republican Central Committee, and Milton Township Republican Organization who have denounced me. I should write a book about hate-filled Trump-hating past and present Republican leaders of Illinois, DuPage County, Milton Township, Wheaton, Wheaton Park District, and Wheaton Chamber of Commerce who have denounced TAPROOT Republicans of Illinois, Illinois Center Right Coalition (ICRC), and me. I should write a book about hate-filled Trump-hating candidates on ballots in my precinct, their political consultants, major donors, fundraisers, pollsters, campaign managers, campaign staff members, and campaign volunteers who have denounced TAPROOT, ICRC, and me.

— Ever-increasingly, hate-filled Trump-hating Trump-haters use the capitol riot to promote hatred against those who do not share their hatred against Trump – Dave Diersen

http://www.gopillinois.com

Ever-increasingly, hate-filled Trump-hating Trump-haters use the capitol riot to promote hatred against those who do not share their hatred against Trump. Last year, hate-filled Trump-hating Trump-haters stopped me from raising funds from DuPage Republicans so that DuPage Republicans could help sponsor Wheaton’s Independence Day parade and fireworks.

The more that you oppose anti-religious, oppose anti-conservative, and/or oppose anti-Republican policies, the more that Democrats, Libertarians, Greens, Independents, and RINOs call you a “far-right extremist.”  I should write a book about my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes who have demonized me, denigrated me, and condemned me the most as being a “far right extremist.”

— One of the biggest mistakes that I made in life was avoiding the draft. – Dave Diersen

http://www.gopillinois.com

One of the biggest mistakes that I made in life was avoiding the draft. I sought and obtained a) student draft deferments 1966-1970 and b) a financial hardship draft deferment 1970-1971. In 1966, I could have, but I did not, challenge being 1-A instead of 4-F a) because my eyesight could not be corrected to 20-20, b) because I had partial red/green color blindness, and c) because I had Osgood-Schlatter disease SEE: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Osgood%E2%80%93Schlatter_disease  I could walk, but I could not run. Starting in 1966, Democrats, Libertarians, Greens, Independents, and RINOs have demonized me, denigrated me, and condemned me for avoiding the draft. They especially demonized me, denigrated me, and condemned me to my Democrat Post Office, Firestone Stores, IRS, and GAO superiors, supervisors, coworkers, and subordinates who were veterans. Democrat veterans played a major role in all the adverse actions that my Democrat Post Office, Firestone Stores, IRS, and GAO superiors took against me. I should write a book about them and the adverse actions that they took against me. They would not have taken those adverse actions against me if I was a veteran.

When you were in grade school and in high school, were you viewed as being “college material?” I was not. Neither of my outstanding parents attended college. My father was the first of his ancestors to earn a high school diploma. My mother never attended high school. I just barely made it into the upper 20% of my high school class. My ACT score was only 24. I washed dishes for the minimum wage during my junior and senior years and the summer in between. Never-the-less, UIC accepted me.

— Money Magazine – Dave Diersen

http://gopillinois.com

In its February 1978 issue, Money Magazine published a 4-page article about me and my future wife. The article reads like Money Magazine took advice from my Democrat IRS superiors on how to a) foist negative government stereotypes on me, b) paint me as being grossly overpaid, and c) paint my education deductions as being improper. The article hints/implies/argues/shouts that the graduate business courses that I took at Loyola 1972-1976 and the graduate accounting courses that I took at DePaul 1976-1980 a) did not relate to my job duties, b) did not maintain or improve my job skills, c) were taken by me to get a job in the private sector, d) were taken by me to qualify me for a “new trade or business,” and e) were a distraction. Money Magazine and IRS would not have done that if I had been a Democrat, minority, female, and/or veteran. In its article on me, Money Magazine called the studio condo that I bought in downtown Chicago in 1974 my pied-a-terre. In fact, I bought the condo for three reasons. First, so that I could walk to work at my new IRS job in the Loop. Second, so that I could walk to graduate business classes at Loyola. And third, I could not sell my University Park town home without suffering a big loss. Of course, ever since the article was published, all my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes have used everything in it that they could against me. I should have sued Money Magazine.

Further, because of my January 10 fall, I might never again be able to send out GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters each and every morning and each and every evening.

Those who ended my TAPROOT chairmanship viciously disapproved of, if not hated those who I invited to speak at TAPROOT events a) because they were “too conservative” and b) because they could not manipulate or dominate them, they refused to glorify and praise them, they refused to pander to them, they refused to serve as one of their operatives or dupes, they refused to cover up their wrong doing, and/or they refused to give them money.

We would also disclose that the home’s exterior footing tiles were improperly laid at its southeast corner. However, we would also disclose that the builder installed steel reinforcement in the foundation walls and interior footing tiles to compensate for that. We would also fully disclose that long wide cracks formed in the basement floor immediately after it was poured because it was not adequately protected from freezing temperatures. However, we would also disclose that we sealed those cracks and paid the builder to have all the home’s downspouts directly connected to the city storm sewer system. Further, we would also disclose the many expensive and time-consuming lot drainage improvements that we made to keep surface and subsurface storm water away from the home’s foundation.

— Daily Driver – Dave Diersen
http://www.gopillinois.com

My wife and I are very happy with our 2003 Chevrolet Cavalier LS which has been our daily driver since I bought it from my aunt in 2010. But I am giving lots of thought to what its replacement should be if we lose use of it. I only buy American-nameplate vehicles. I prefer buying new vehicles. My wife and I prefer our daily driver to be a smaller vehicle. It would sit outside because our garage is full and my wife does not like driving in garages and backing out of garages. I am considering a new loaded Ford EcoSport and a new loaded Chevrolet Trax. Your comments and suggestions would be appreciated.

Our daily driver was a 1990 Ford Thunderbird LX 2004-2010, 1997 Chevrolet Cavalier 1996-2004, 1990 Ford Thunderbird LX 1994-1996, 1994 Ford Thunderbird during 1994, and 1978 Chevrolet Chevette 1978-1994.

What life-changing decisions have you made?

In 1964, I decided to and I subsequently did earn a college degree. I started taking college-preparatory courses at Crete-Monee High School.

In 1964, I decided to and I did get accepted by UIC in 1966 because I could afford to attend UIC. My parents could provide me with room and board in their home in Crete while I took courses at UIC. I graduated in the upper 20% of my class in 1966 and scored 24 on the ACT.

In 1964, I decided to and I did pay for my college expenses by working part-time jobs. I washing dishes for the minimum wage in the basement of the S.S. Kresges in Chicago Heights 1964-1966. I cleaned golf shoes, chipped slag, and pumped gasoline in 1966. I delivered mail in Park Forest 1966-1969 and I was a union member. I worked on an automobile assembly line and as a security guard in 1970.

In 1999, I decided to and I did get appointed as DuPage County Milton Township Precinct 9 Republican Committeeman, and since 2000, I have successfully ran for reelection.

January 13 Morning Edition

GOPUSA ILLINOIS

— In 2004, I started putting together and sending out GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters each and every morning. In 2015 started putting together and sending out GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters each and every evening too. For the first time on Monday January 10, 2022, a health problem stopped me from doing that Monday January 10, 2022, Tuesday January 11, 2022, and Wednesday January 12, 2022. I slipped and fell on my head on the ice retrieving newspapers from the driveway apron early Monday morning. I was in the ICU at CDH Monday and Tuesday and a regular room yesterday and I was released late yesterday afternoon. I am not back on “eight cylinders.” I continue to have severe headaches, ear pain, heck pain, etc. – Dave Diersen

POLITICO ILLINOIS
— SCOOP: Republican Steve Kim is throwing his hat in the ring to challenge Democratic Illinois Attorney General Kwame Raoul, nearly rounding out a Republican slate for the June 28 primary. Kim is a familiar name on the political scene, having challenged Democratic AG Lisa Madigan when she ran for reelection in 2010. Kim was also the running mate to Republican gubernatorial candidate Dan Rutherford in the 2014 primary contest that ultimately went to Bruce Rauner. A source close to Kim’s campaign said he would be part of a slate that includes state Rep. Tom Demmer for treasurer, former U.S. Attorney John Milhiser for secretary of state, and McHenry County Auditor Shannon Teresi for auditor, who announced yesterday. Don’t be surprised if Aurora Mayor Richard Irvin leads the slate as the gubernatorial candidate. These candidates aren’t the only Republicans running for statewide offices, but by teaming up they hope to have an advantage securing a statewide seat (or seats) that are now controlled by Democrats. Abby Witt, executive director of the Democratic Party of Illinois, calls the slate a “Rauner Reboot” that’s being run by Ken Griffin. Actually, Griffin has so far kept out of the statewide races — though he’s acknowledged wanting to defeat Gov. JB Pritzker. For his part, Kim said the AG job is “critical to repairing the state’s reputation as a haven for crime and public corruption.” And like Teresi did yesterday, he invoked Michael Madigan, the former House speaker, in his remarks, saying, “Under JB Pritzker and Mike Madigan, Springfield remains a cesspool run for the benefit of the politicians and insiders and not the people of Illinois.” Kim, born in South Korea, is an attorney with an expertise in international issues. He was an adviser to former Gov. Jim Edgar on trade and Asian affairs, a trustee in Northfield Township, and an international affairs director for the State Chamber of Commerce. He also serves as a member of the Rules Committee of the Illinois Supreme Court. In the private sector, Kim worked on internal and external affairs with Ameritech, now AT&T, while going to law school at night. After earning his law degree, Kim was VP of government and public affairs at Time Warner. He’s since practiced law at a boutique firm that advises small- and medium-size companies. . .Republican Cook County Commissioner Peter Silvestri won’t seek reelection: He was first elected in 1994. “I’m thinking that there’s other things I want to do, like maybe teach or practice more law … and just have more time with my friends and family,” Silvestri said in a phone interview with the Tribune’s Alice Yin. “I hope that my legacy is that I tried to represent the people of our area to the best of my ability, understanding the social and financial limitations that government has.” . . .Pete DiCianni has been unanimously endorsed by the Addison Township Republican Organization for DuPage County Board chairman. Di Cianni currently serves as the commissioner of the 2nd District. – Shia Kapos
