(FROM THE ARTICLE: Naperville police tell the I-Team there are no known connections between all of the arrests, and in a majority of the cases, the guns or drugs were left in vehicles parked at Topgolf and could reportedly be seen in plain-view by Naperville officers walking through the lot. Like in one case last September, when Naperville officers looked through the driver-side window of a parked car and reported seeing a black Glock firearm with a laser sight and “red switch,” a device that converts a handgun into a machine gun.)

— In a Joe Biden-Donald Trump rematch, who gets the Nikki Haley voters? (COMMENT: As a Republican Precinct Committeeman since 1999, I have always supported all the Republican candidates in general elections on ballots in my precinct. Far too many of my Republican critics/opponents have not. Far too many of them have supported only those candidates in general elections who they had supported in primary elections. Worse yet, far too many of them rather see Democrats elected than Republicans who they did not support in primary elections. Even worse yet, far too many of them destroy those who did not support their candidates in primary elections.)

One could argue that they are the Trump and Haley delegates and alternate delegates in your congressional district, county, township, school district, and municipality.

HAGERTY
— This is a detailed article about Frank Pope and his 1972 Corvette. We both bought new Corvettes in October of 1971; Pope was 26 and I was 23. Pope lived in Melrose Park; I lived in Crete. Pope paid for his Corvette with money he earned as a hairstylist. I paid for my Corvette with money I earned collecting delinquent taxes for IRS in Harvey and pumping gasoline part-time for the Firestone Store in Chicago Heights. Pope retired 12 years ago; I retired 26 years ago. Pope has made many modifications to his Corvette; I have made virtually none to mine. Pope has driven his Corvette 42,000 miles; I have driven mine only 5,000 miles. Pope and I are still married.
https://www.hagerty.com/media/car-profiles/original-owner-a-trendy-hairstyle-helped-this-chicago-area-corvette-buff-buy-a-72-ls5-coupe-in-cash/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Frank Pope could barely contain his joy upon arriving at Celozzi-Ettleson Chevrolet in Elmhurst, Illinois, with his girlfriend, Joanne. He’d driven about five miles from his Melrose Park home to watch his new Targa Blue 1972 Corvette roll off the auto carrier. It was October 15, 1971, a day Pope had been anxiously awaiting since ordering the car eight weeks before. With Joanne by his side, he excitedly pointed to the car. “Here I am, this 26-year-old guy, with my heart pounding,” Pope recalled for Hagerty. “It was the only one on the trailer with the big-block hood. I said to Joanne, ‘Do you see the difference from the other Corvettes on there?’ She said, ‘No.’ I said, ‘Look at that hood. It’s a big-block.’ But I might as well have been speaking a different language. I told her, ‘I will never sell this car,’ and she gave me a look like she was thinking, ‘This guy must be nuts. He’s never going to ask me to marry him.’ But I did. We got engaged on Valentine’s Day 1972, and we’re still married.” Pope still has the Corvette, too, now with just 42,000 miles and still getting out for fun. Over the years, he added engine modifications while keeping the exterior and interior mostly stock. The blue Corvette fulfilled a long-time dream for the young man who’d learned his trade in barber college. . .He later left the hair styling business and became an investigator for the Clerk of the Circuit Court of Cook County. “I retired 12 years ago. I was a deputy sheriff.”)

— Not only reject the personal responsibility, traditional marriage and 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, but who work against those like me who promote those planks?
— Read my GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters for opposition research?
— Do everything that they can to discourage/stop me from sending out GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters?
— Do everything that they can to discourage/stop everyone from reading GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters?
— Blame me and blame my GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters for their problems, for your problems, for my problems, and for everyone’s problems?

— Increasingly make it clear that they are not only Democrat Lite or RINO, but are anti-religious, anti-conservative, and/or anti-Republican?
— Increasingly glorify, praise, and pander to those who do not share my demographics?

WASHINGTON EXAMINER
— Democrat leaders alienate voters they can’t afford to lose – Brady Leonard (COMMENT: Democrat leaders ever-increasingly promote more illegal immigration because illegals vote for Democrats. However, many Democrat voters lack money. The less money and/or the less education that you have, the more that illegal immigration harms you. Illegals take low-paid jobs that do not require college degrees. That drives wages down for low-paid jobs. My critics/opponents want cheap labor. My critics/opponents have always been immune from the harm that illegal immigration causes. They have/had wealthy parents who bought them cars, paid for their college expenses, got them good jobs, etc. Unlike my critics/opponents, I had to work my way through college. I escaped the harm that illegal immigration causes by earning a job-related bachelor’s degree in 1970, master’s degrees in 1976, 1980, and 1997, professional certifications in 1979, 1981, 1990, 1994, 1996, and 1997, and a professional license in 1981.)

— Republican Neanderthals? – Robert B. Charles
https://amac.us/newsline/society/republican-neanderthals/

Republicans are mocked by Obama for “clinging to their guns and bibles,” as “Deplorables” by Hillary Clinton, then 70 million called “enemies of the republic,” French Revolution talk. Now, says Biden, if you are not hysterical with the climate, if you are unsure, you are a “Neanderthal.” Really? As Biden toured a remote bit of the southern border, he sounded the ultimate ideologue, asserting a dead Senate bill legalizing 5000 illegals daily was good policy, blaming Republicans for not passing it, taking no ownership of twisting asylum laws and not deporting drug and sex traffickers. He made no mention of eight million illegals shipped nationwide, record drug overdoses, crime, and homelessness. He took no ownership of his anti-citizen approach, one that – with impeached Secretary of Homeland Security Mayorkas – fails to enforce seven laws requiring detention, presumably hoping illegals will vote for him in 2024, either without an ID (where allowed) or with a driver’s license, where illegals get them. The duplicity, cynicism, and anti-constitutional nature of all this, illegally populating the country, pushing illegal voting, concentrating power in one party, elevating national insecurity – is downright frightening. No president in American history has ever willingly abetted enemies of the country – here drug and human traffickers, known criminals, and potential terrorists – ignoring the citizens’ needs for political gain. No president has ever responded so glibly to thousands of violent crimes annually (8,000 to 10,000) committed by non-citizens. Two-thirds (64 percent) of federal crimes are now committed by non-citizens. No president has responded to brutal citizen murders, like the young nursing student running on her own college campus, killed by a 26-year-old non-citizen, twice caught, twice released – with the audacity to say, the current state of affairs, which he plainly authored, is the fault of Republicans.)

KILLEEN DAILY HERALD
— Texas Republican voters say ‘Yes’ to all 13 party propositions on the primary ballot (COMMENT: What yes/no party propositions should the Illinois Republican Party ask Republican voters?)
https://kdhnews.com/news/texas/texas-voters-say-yes-to-all-13-props-on-the-ballot/article_0514c5a0-6537-5d50-a759-f1050f5f1863.html


(THE PROPOSITIONS:
1. Texas should eliminate all property taxes without increasing Texans’ overall tax burden.
2. Texas should create a Border Protection Unit, and deploy additional state law enforcement and military forces, to seal the border, to use physical force to prevent illegal entry and trafficking, and to deport illegal aliens to Mexico or to their nations of origin.
3. The Texas Legislature should require the use of E-Verify by all employers in Texas to protect jobs for legal workers by preventing the hiring of illegal aliens.
4. The Texas Legislature should end all subsidies and public services, including in-state college tuition and enrollment in public schools, for illegal aliens.
5. Texas urges the United States Congress not to grant any form of amnesty or a pathway to legalization for illegal aliens.
6. The Texas Legislature should prohibit the deployment of the Texas National Guard to a foreign conflict unless Congress first formally declares war.
7. The Texas Legislature should establish authority within the Texas State Comptroller’s office to administer access to gold and silver through the Texas Bullion Depository for use as legal tender.
8 The State of Texas should ensure that Texans are free to give or to withhold consent for any vaccine without coercion.
9. The Republican Party of Texas should restrict voting in the Republican Primary to only registered Republicans.
10. The Texas Constitution should be amended to restore authority to the Texas Attorney General to prosecute election crimes.
11. Texas parents and guardians should have the right to select schools, whether public or private, for their children, and the funding should follow the student.
12. The Texas Constitution should be amended to require proof of citizenship before any individual can be registered to vote.
13. Texas should ban the sale of Texas land to citizens, governments, and entities from China, Iran, North Korea, and Russia.

TYLER MORNING TELEGRAPH

(FROM THE ARTICLE: Voters in the Republican party across Texas headed to the polls on Tuesday to weigh in on 13 propositions on the GOP ballot. Each one got a solid thumbs up. They ranged from questions on issues of immigration to taxation and more. But they’re not policy referendums and aren’t intended to become constitutional amendments. They’re more like a poll for the Republican party to gauge the opinions of voters on issues. GOP voters were asked whether they support the following propositions. The answer was a resounding ‘Yes’ for each one.)

GOPUSA ILLINOIS
— Political parties exist to help elect candidates who can and will defend and advance their platform. The Republican Party platform is conservative. The following are suggested yes/no questions for the Illinois Republican Party to ask Illinois Republicans. – Dave diersen
http://www.gopillinois.com

Should the Illinois Republican Party:
— 1. Defend and advance its platform, that is, should it dump its “Democrat Lite” policy?
— 2. Promote the personal responsibility plank in its platform and oppose Democrat promotion of dependency on government and charity?
— 3. Promote the traditional marriage and family plank in its platform and oppose Democrat promotion of LGBTQ?
— 4. Promote the right to life plank in its platform and oppose Democrat promotion of abortion?
— 5. Promote the immigration plank on its platform and oppose Democrat promotion of mass/illegal immigration?
— 6. Promote the illegal drugs plank in its platform and oppose Democrat promotion of booze, gambling, pot, and other vices?
— 7. Promote the Second Amendment plank in its platform and oppose Democrat diminishment of Second Amendment rights?
— 8. Promote the equal opportunity (no race of gender based preference giving) plank in its platform and oppose Democrat promotion of patronage, political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, and age discrimination?

Of course, conservatives (Republicans) will answer YES to the aforesaid questions and anti-conservatives (Democrat plants, Libertarian plants, Green plants, Independent plants, and RINOs) will answer NO.

CHICAGO SUN-TIMES
— What color is a trusted face? Some Chicago police officers are upset that a CPD video promoting the upcoming sergeants’ exam leaves out a certain category of cop (White). – Neil Steinberg (COMMENT: To get more and more and more votes from minorities, Democrats ever-increasingly promote more and more and more hatred against Whites.)
https://chicago.suntimes.com/columnists/2024/03/05/chicago-police-department-promotional-video-sergeants-exam-steinberg
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Six more officers urge hard work. To an outsider, it’s an unexceptional piece of management propaganda. So what’s the trouble? Let’s slide over to Second City Cop, an unofficial, relentlessly toxic Chicago police blog, and tune into the chatter: “The only white is the shirt” “Not one Caucasian in that mentor group. … This is very insulting and straight up racist. This is the new city of Chicago, unbelievable. They do not even try to hide the total hatred for the Caucasian police officers.” “Irish need not apply.” “If you’re a white stereotypical male of Irish/Italian/Slavic decent, the city no longer needs you.” . . . Maybe I should make their case for them. Chicago is 30% Black; only 22% of CPD is, and just 16% of sergeants. Must they tuck a token white face in their internal video? Is that really necessary? Apparently so, in some quarters. The biggest fiction floated in the academy is that there are no white or Black police officers, that everybody is blue. Uh-huh. Given how bent out of shape some officers are at not seeing themselves reflected in this video, that isn’t the case. . .Frustration vibrates off the comments, particularly directed toward “merit” promotions — which some see as a cut-to-the-front-of-the-line dodge around the test, permanently blemishing officers who didn’t make the grade. Others see the test itself as skewed to favor whites.)

WASHINGTON EXAMINER
— Even immigration is no free lunch – Conn Carroll (COMMENT: My critics/opponents want cheap labor. They have always demonized me, denigrated me, and condemned me as being grossly overpaid. I should write a book about my critics/opponents. I would focus on those whose parents are/were wealthy, who bought them cars, who paid for their college degree(s), who got them good jobs, etc.)
https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/opinion/2903666/even-immigration-is-no-free-lunch/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Libertarian think tank scholars would have you believe that importing cheap foreign labor is a win-win for everybody. Employers get cheap labor, immigrants get higher pay, and consumers get cheaper goods and services. American workers aren’t hurt, the libertarians claim, because native workers won’t do the jobs foreign workers will, and they actually benefit by using cheaper services to allow them to work longer hours in higher-paying professions (e.g., a lawyer who can work more billable hours since he can buy dinner instead of cooking it himself). The libertarian case that adding to the supply of cheap labor never reduced native wages was always wrong. Harvard University economist George Borjas eloquently explained why years ago here. But now, the Wall Street Journal is even reporting that cheap foreign labor has other drawbacks, too. In an article titled “Rich Countries Are Becoming Addicted to Cheap Labor,” Tom Fairless reports: “Many business owners say that bringing in low-skilled foreign workers has become essential, as local populations age and labor forces shrink. … To some economists, however, dependence on imported workers is approaching unhealthy levels in some places, stifling productivity growth and helping businesses delay the search for more sustainable solutions to labor shortages.”)

I a) did yard work 1962-1964, b) delivered newspapers 1962-1966, c) washed dishes 1964-1966, d) cleaned golf shoes, chipped slag, and pumped gasoline in 1966, e) delivered mail 1966-1969, f) worked on an automobile assembly line in 1970, g) sold tires, automotive services, and major appliances 1970-1971, h) pumped gasoline 1971-1972, i) collected delinquent taxes 1971-1980, and j) audited federal agencies 1980-1997. The aforesaid bad jobs enabled me to buy new cars in 1966, 1967, 1968, 1971, 1974, 1978, etc., b) buy real estate in 1972, 1974, and 1976, c) pay for tuition and books to earn master’s degrees in 1976, 1980, and 1997, d) get married and buy a home in Wheaton with my wife in 1978, e) have a home built in Wheaton with my wife in 1984, f) etc.)

POLITICO ILLINOIS
— During an East Coast swing ahead of tomorrow’s Super Tuesday primaries, Gov. JB Pritzker called Donald Trump a “putz” and an “ass” but he said Illinois Democrats still want him on the ballot. “He’s in trouble in Illinois,” Pritzker said Sunday on MSNBC, reminding that Trump lost in Illinois in 2016 and 2020. “We want him on the ballot because he’s a detriment to Republicans across the United States but especially in Illinois.” Watch the interview here. ( https://twitter.com/TheWeekendMSNBC/status/1764311123665264949?s=20 ) The attacks were sharp during a speech Saturday in Arlington, Va., where Pritzker headlined the Democratic Party of Virginia’s pre-Super Tuesday event. (Pritzker’s Think Big America contributed $250,000 to the Virginia Democrats’ successful efforts to claim both chambers of the legislature.) In his speech, Pritzker called Trump a “putz” and an “ass” and said he is “stupid and ignorant.” The crowd ate it up. Explaining his blunt talk: “I learned an important lesson” from the 2016 presidential election, said Pritzker, who was a top fundraiser that year for Hillary Clinton’s presidential bid that Trump thwarted. “Don’t mince words in the fight of your life. Don’t hold back. This is an existential battle. I’m done giving any of these insurrectionists the benefit of the doubt. … I’m done pretending that we can debate nuance in this fight.” Will it be a strategy? Pritzker’s comments on the trail have often been echoed by his fellow surrogates, whether it’s abortion or age. The line about Trump being bad for down ballot Republicans may be a mantra. About age: Pritzker pointed to Trump “bragging about a cognitive test that he took in which they showed him a picture of a shark and a lion. … You know, that’s nice. But remember that Joe Biden is handling the complexities of the world.” – Shia Kapos

Further, potential employers were under tremendous pressure to hire minorities, females, and veterans. Further, my GPA was not that great because I had spent far too many hours working for the Park Forest Post Office instead of studying. Consequently, I accepted the only job offer that I got. It was Retail Sales Manager for the Firestone Store in Chicago Heights. It was a job that did not really require the bachelor’s degree in management that I had earned from NIU.)

— SCOTUS OKs Admissions Discrimination at TJ High. By refusing to hear the case about the school’s admissions practices, the Court effectively gutted last year’s decision against affirmative action. – Peter Van Buren (COMMENT: Democrat and RINO employers ever-increasingly lower standards to hire, retain, and promote more minorities and females. While I worked for the federal government for almost 30 years, my Democrat superiors ever-increasingly lowered standards to hire, retain, and promote more minorities and females. That rendered WORTHLESS a) my earning an MBA in 1976, b) my passing the CPA examination on my first attempt in 1979, c) my earning a master’s degree in accounting in 1980, d) my passing the Certified Internal Auditor examination on my first attempt in 1981, e) my becoming a licensed CPA in 1981, f) etc.)
https://www.theamericanconservative.com/scotus-oks-admissions-discrimination-at-tj-high/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: So what’s going on at TJ? Asian and white parents have been fighting over how many black students should be allowed in. Until the summer of 2020, the only way into prestigious TJ for residents was to pass a rigorous series of entrance exams. Following the death of George Floyd, TJ officials became concerned about their low number of black students and changed admissions standards. The tests were replaced by a holistic review that included “experience factors,” eligibility for free or reduced price meals, students who are economically disadvantaged, English language learners, special education students, and students who are currently attending underrepresented middle schools. The results were as intended: Without the entrance tests, the black student population grew from 1 to 7 percent of the class, while the number of Asian students fell from 73 to 54 percent. The number of white students also fell, but no one seemed to care that they accounted for only 22 percent of admissions, despite being 65 percent of the county population.)

AMERICAN THINKER
— The End of Assimilation – Robert Weissberg
https://www.americanthinker.com/articles/2024/03/the_end_of_assimilation.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The deeper problem is that nearly all illegals arrive embracing values against core American principles. They are “aliens” both legally and in terms of our political culture. Modern immigration is wholly unlike that of the earliest days, when most immigrants were of English ancestry and quickly integrated into society. Today, by contrast, those flooding into the United States arrive from almost every nation on the planet, including places like El Salvador, Kazakhstan, India, Ghana, China, Syria, Cuba, and Vietnam. Those newly arrived Muslims clustering in places like Dearborn, Mich. have altered the political landscape thanks to their vociferous support for Hamas, and this new voice may be a harbinger of future Balkanization. No precise definition of America’s political culture exists, but central is patriotism — subordinating all loyalties to national identity. As Teddy Roosevelt put it in 1907, “there can be no divided allegiance here. … We have room for but one flag, the American flag. … We have room for but one language here, and that is the English language … and we have room for but one sole loyalty, and that is a loyalty to the American people.” Further add the values explicitly embedded in the Constitution: the rule of law; the rights of free speech and freedom of religion; freedom from government tyranny; the primacy of individual, not group rights and similar rights vital to ordered liberty. Further add elections, not violence, to settle disputes. To be sure, this catalogue can be murky, and exceptions exist, but at their core, “American political values” are well understood. Alas, these values are exceedingly rare in third-world countries, the overwhelming source of today’s illegals.)
— Biden administration has new term for illegal aliens – Eric Utter (COMMENT: When were you a newcomer and for how long were you treated as one? I transferred from IRS to GAO in 1980 when I was 31 years old. My Democrat GAO superiors, supervisors, coworkers, and subordinates never stopped treating me like I was a newcomer, that is, like I lacked relevant work experience, education, professional certifications and licenses, etc. They ignored/dismissed/belittled the fact a) that what I did working for IRS for almost 9 years was very similar to what I did for GAO, b) that I had earned an MBA from Loyola in 1976, c) that I had passed the CPA examination on my first attempt in 1979, d) that I earned a master’s degree in accounting from DePaul in 1980, e) that I passed the Certified Internal Auditor examination on my first attempt in 1981, and f) that I became a licensed CPA in 1981. They would not have done that if I had been a Democrat, minority, female, veteran, and/or younger.)

I had completed only 3 graduate evening business courses at Loyola when I was promoted in 1972, 7 in 1973, and 11 in 1974. But in my defense, I did earn an MBA from Loyola in 1976. 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 and became a licensed CPA in 1981. If I had been a Democrat, minority, female, and/or veteran, IRS would have promoted me into its Senior Executive Service (currently $191,900/year) before I was 40 in 1988.)

According to my critics/opponents, my Democrat GAO Chicago office superiors did not a) fail/refuse to promote me beyond GS-13, b) throw me off audits of IRS, c) always rank me in the bottom half of my coworkers for pay-for-performance purposes, and d) force me to take their early retirement “offer” in 1997 when I was 49 years old because in 1988 I became the office’s only active member in a class action lawsuit that charged them with reverse discrimination, age discrimination, and retaliation. According to my critics/opponents, my Democrat IRS Chicago office superiors did not a) fail/refuse to promote me beyond GS-12, b) disallow my travel vouchers in 1974, and c) disallow my education deductions in 1978 because I complained about political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, and age discrimination.

— Chicago Cop Sues For Right To Change His Race – SAMUEL SPENCER (COMMENT: If I had been a Democrat, minority, female, and/or veteran, my Democrat superiors in the federal government would not have wasted my career, they would not have taken the many big adverse actions against me that they did.)
https://dailycaller.com/2024/02/27/chicago-cop-sues-for-right-to-change-his-race/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: A veteran of the Chicago Police Department has filed a federal civil rights lawsuit against the city because they won’t allow him to change his race designation within their records. Mohammad Yusuf, 43, a 20-year veteran of the police department, is suing the city of Chicago because they won’t allow him to change his race designation from Caucasian, even though he “identifies as Egyptian and African American,” according to CWB Chicago. In 2004, when Yusef joined the force, the department only offered Caucasian, Black and Hispanic as race designations. Now, the Chicago Police Department reportedly lets new recruits choose from over nine different race designations and allows officers to alter their gender identity if desired. But in Yusef’s case, the department has a “blanket prohibition” for race changes, CWB Chicago reported. The lawsuit states: “The Racial Identity Policy Ban facially and intentionally discriminates against certain individuals based on personally identifiable characteristics like race,” CWB Chicago reported. Yusef’s complaint suggests that his career was hindered due to his race designation, according to the outlet. “Despite Yusuf’s exemplary qualifications and the purported race-neutral policy of the Merit System, Yusuf has been repeatedly bypassed for promotion in favor of less qualified candidates, based on their race, specifically African American officers, some of whom had disciplinary issues and were not suitable for the responsibilities of a sergeant,” the complaint said, according to CWB Chicago. Although Yusef took a 23 and Me DNA test to prove his Egyptian heritage at the request of the CPD, the department remained unwilling to approve his request, according to the outlet. The CPD does not reportedly require transgender officers to provide proof of their “transition” before updating their personal records.)

— How long do you need to save to buy a home in Chicago? 4 years, experts say. – Elvia Malagón (COMMENT: Back in the good old days, that is, back in the 1970s, it took me only 25 months to earn and save enough to buy a new town home in University Park — 15 months working for IRS, 18 months working part-time for the Firestone Store in Chicago Heights, and 7 months working full-time for that store before that. During that time, I earned and saved enough to also buy a new 1972 Corvette in 1971 and to pay for graduate evening business courses at Loyola in 1972.)

CRAIN’S CHICAGO BUSINESS
— Chicago has one of the largest income inequality gaps in the country – Jack Grieve (COMMENT: To remedy that income inequality, in 1997 when I was 49 years old, my Democrat GAO superiors forced me to take their early retirement “offer” and they gave my job to my Black subordinate. In today’s dollars, my annual income dropped by $84,910/year or 57%. In today’s dollars, my GAO salary was $150,075/year. My Civil Service Retirement System pension is only $65,165/year or only 43% of what my GAO salary was. Further, to remedy that income inequality, in 1980 when I was 31 years old, my Democrat GAO superiors forced me to take a pay cut to transfer from IRS to GAO. In today’s dollars, my income dropped by $22,996/year or 21%. In today’s dollars, my IRS salary was $110,020/year. My GAO salary was only $87,024/year or only 79% of what my IRS salary was. According to Democrats and RINOs, I have always been overpaid.)
https://www.chicagobusiness.com/economy/chicago-has-10th-highest-income-inequality-us
(FROM THE ARTICLE: A household in Chicago must bring home an annual salary of at least $149,219 to be among the city’s top 20% of earners. On the other hand, any household earning less than $27,255 is in the bottom quintile bracket. That means the city’s top one-fifth of earners make at least 5.47 times as much as the bottom one-fifth of earners.)

Because I am a federal retiree, the federal government pays 72% of my and my wife’s healthcare insurance.)

I should write a book about those who have blamed me and my GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters the most for losses that Republican candidates on ballots in my precinct suffered since 2005. I would focus on the candidates who suffered losses and their political consultants, major donors, fundraisers, pollsters, campaign managers, campaign staff members, and campaign volunteers. I would focus on leaders of the Illinois Republican Party, DuPage County Republican Central Committee, Milton Township Republican Organization, and Illinois Center Right Coalition. I would focus on conservative and religious leaders and activists.)

LINDQUIST VON HASEN & JOYCE
— Your Accounting Career Plan (COMMENT: In retrospect, with benefit of hindsight, if I could do it over again, I would have overcome my fear of not being able to pass the CPA examination much sooner than I did. I would have majored in accounting instead of management at UIC, NIU, and Loyola and I would have done things much sooner than I did. As it was, I did not earn an MBA from Loyola until I was 27 in 1976. I did not take and pass the CPA examination until I was 30. I did not earn a master’s degree in accounting from DePaul until I was 31. I did not take and pass the Certified Internal Auditor examination and become a licensed CPA until I was 32. But by then, because of my bad demographics, I was much “too old” to have a successful career in accounting. I did not take more than one graduate evening course at a time at Loyola and DePaul because of financial limitations and time limitations. IRS did not offer me a job until I was 22 and it was as a “Revenue Officer” job instead of a “Revenue Agent” job because I had not taken enough accounting courses.)

— CPAC Poll: Newsmax ‘Most Trusted’ in Cable News – Fran Beyer (COMMENT: I would hope that GOPUSA ILLINOIS would be ranked “most trusted” by those in Illinois who support the personal responsibility, traditional marriage and 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. The more of the aforesaid planks that my critics/opponents reject, the harder that they work against me. I should write a book about my critics/opponents who are working against me the hardest. In 2021, they ended my service as the Republican fundraiser for Wheaton Independence Day parades and fireworks.)
https://www.newsmax.com/newsfront/cpac-conservatives-straw-poll/2024/02/25/id/1154886/
(COMMENT: Newsmax was voted by the Conservative Political Action Conference the “most trusted” cable news outlet in America — trouncing rival Fox News by a whopping 34 points, according to a straw poll conducted at the annual conference. CPAC announced the findings of the survey Sunday after four days of meetings in Washington, D.C. Each year CPAC organizes the nation’s most influential conservative conference, drawing major political and celebrity figures weighing in on policy issues and political races. The CPAC poll findings showed: 49% said Newsmax, when asked which network do you “trust the most.”
Only 15% said the same about Fox News. 29% chose “none” of the options as a trusted outlet. Either CNN or MSNBC was the choice for 1% each.
The survey was conducted by McLaughlin & Associates from Wednesday to Saturday — with a total of 1,478 conservatives participating. Participants appeared to be happy about Newsmax but were less sanguine about Big Tech platforms and their leaders. Some 55% of CPAC attendees singled out Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg as the Big Tech CEO “doing the most to undermine America.” Google CEO Sundar Pichai came in second at 32% with Amazon’s Jeff Bezos at 5% and Apple’s Tim Cook at just 1%. The survey also asked participants what was the best way to combat “woke elites.” Almost a majority, 46%, said it would be to “give to grassroots efforts to mobilize conservatives.” Some 25% said donating “directly to candidates for Congress” was the best approach. Participants completed the survey using a unique six-digit PIN code to eliminate multiple or outside voting.)

— White supremacy goes back to ‘early church’: Oxford professor – MICAIAH BILGER (COMMENT: In my defense, I have always stressed that all my ancestors have always lived in northeast Illinois.)
https://www.thecollegefix.com/white-supremacy-goes-back-to-early-church-oxford-professor/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: “The most egregious thing that we have to wrestle with is the normalization of white supremacy,” Reddie said. Although Christianity “was created as a movement for those who are marginalized and oppressed,” he said white leaders quickly began using the religion as a weapon to seize land and oppress other cultures. Reddie traced the distortion back to the early Christians who blamed the Jews for killing Jesus, instead of Roman leader Pontius Pilate, according to the report. “Pilate represents white supremacy, and white supremacy now becomes normalized and effectively becomes the religion of Jesus, the religion of God,” the professor said. As time went on, more and more people began to believe Jesus was a white European, like them, Reddie said.
Baptist News Global reports: That’s why few white Christians flinched at the claim that Jesus called European and American Christians to travel the globe to oppress brown- and Black-skinned people, he said, explaining that a Christianity suffused with white supremacy enabled plantation owners in the American South to see no contradiction between their faith and owning other human beings. “They saw people who are other as inferior and that it was OK to kill or enslave them for their own good.” Those attitudes clearly continue to exist and in the U.S. are evident in the rise of Trumpism, the British scholar said. Because white supremacy has been connected with Christianity for so long, he said it has “distorted the very fabric of what we call Christianity and the nature of church.” The Baylor conference is part of a “three-year sequences of programs on confronting racism in the white church and seeking God’s justice,” according to the event website. More than a dozen pastors, theologians, and Christian leaders participated. Baylor is a private, Protestant Christian university in Texas. Earlier this year, a Catholic university professor also linked white supremacy with the early Christian church in a new book, “Christian Supremacy.” The author, Fordham University Professor Magda Teter, told the Jewish Telegraphic Agency that white supremacists’ ideology “is rooted in Christian ideas of social and religious hierarchy.”)

https://www.newsbusters.org/blogs/nb/nicholas-fondacaro/2024/02/23/hostin-conspiracy-gop-only-support-ivf-stave-white
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Good things don’t last long on ABC’s The View. After defending embryos as children earlier in the week, staunchly racist and anti-Semitic co-host Sunny Hostin (the descendant of slave owners) found her angle of attack against Republicans on Friday, in the wake of an Alabama Supreme Court ruling on in vitro fertilization. According to her, the only reason Republicans were now coming out in defense of IVF was because it was how they planned to stave off white people being replaced by minorities. “On the one hand, they want you to not have an abortion and then they also don’t want you to have more children. Make up your minds. Whatever that means,” Friday moderator Joy Behar kvetched, keeping with the narrative that the GOP was trying to stop people from using IVF, for some reason. Before cracking open the lid on her crazy conspiracy theory, Hostin suggested she was on the trail of something major. “I think they do want you to have more children and they just not saying the quiet part out loud,” she teased. “Which is, multicultural Americans are going to become the majority population by 2050,” she began to unwind her crazy. “By 2050, the Hispanic Americans are expected to have the most population growth, an increase of about six percent, while the white population is expected to decrease by about 11 percent. At this time, the birth rate for white Americans in this country has been falling since the great recession and it’s dropped almost 23 percent between 2007 and 2022.”)

— Native Americans hope Illinois lawmakers can transfer stolen land, ban racist school mascots – Mike Miletich (COMMENT: I should write a book about my GAO coworker for almost 18 years 1980-1997 who shared many demographics with me. We both were DuPage County residents, Republicans, CPAs, White, male, married, non-veteran, Protestant, and our ancestors had been in America for a long time. But he was a Native America. He filled the office’s Native American quota. I would focus on the many ways in which our GAO superiors gave him preference over me. Unlike me, they let him work until he was eligible for regular retirement. We were both very active in the Association of Government Accountants Chicago Chapter. He differed from me in that he was younger than me, he had started his career with GAO, his wife had little or no income, and he had children.)

My CSRS pension is dramatically less because my Democrat superiors wasted my career and forced me to take their early retirement “offer” in 1997 when I was 49 years old. Further, my Social Security is dramatically less because I get a CSRS pension. Notwithstanding the aforesaid, my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes have always demonized, denigrated, and condemned my CSRS pension as being much too generous.)

— CPAC is denying press passes to ‘left-wing’ journalists – DOMINICK MASTRANGELO (COMMENT: I have always fully disclosed that I am conservative. I attended many CPACs, although not recently, and I reported on them as a journalist for GOPUSA. According to my Democrat and RINO critics/opponents, you are not a “real” journalist unless you claim to be nonpartisan. RINOs are anti-conservative.

HECHINGER REPORT
— Did your college application essay mention race? Talk to us about it. (COMMENT: In my 1971 Loyola and 1976 DePaul applications, I stressed that I was an IRS Revenue Officer and that my employee manual encouraged me to take graduate business and accounting courses and that I wanted to take those courses to maintain and improve my job skills as an IRS employee. But in 1978, to get rid of me, my IRS superiors disallowed the courses that I had taken ignoring/rejecting what I had stated in my applications and falsely arguing that I the courses 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, and d) qualified me for a “new trade or business.” They would not have done that nor would they have disallowed my travel vouchers in 1974 and gotten rid of the IRS manager in 1975 who had promoted me in 1972, 1973, and 1974 if I had not complained about political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, and age discrimination. I would not have complained about the aforesaid discrimination if my Democrat IRS superiors had not taken the aforesaid adverse actions against me. They would not have taken the aforesaid adverse actions against me if I had been a Democrat, minority, female, and/or veteran.)

In retrospect and with benefit of hindsight, what did you learn? Would you have done those things if you knew then what you know now? If so, what would you have done differently? I should write a book about that. I would focus on my serving as a) the Republican fundraiser for Wheaton Independence Day parades and fireworks 2005-2019, b) the TAPROOT Republicans of Illinois chairman 2005-2012, c) the Milton Township Republican Organization webmaster 2008-2010 and 2000-2004, and d) an Illinois Center Right Coalition officer 2003-2007. I would focus on those who took the most/biggest adverse actions against me because I did the aforesaid. I would focus on those who have blamed me and my GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters the most for their problems, for your problems, for my problems, and for everyone’s problems. I would focus on those 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 to serve as one of their operatives or dupes, e) who refuse to cover up their wrong doing, and/or f) who refuse to give them money.)
