— DIERSEN HEADLINE: Pritzker promotes hatred of Trump by saying “The president is a xenophobe and a racist.”
https://www.northernpublicradio.org/post/pritzker-tells-journalists-we-need-you
(FROM THE ARTICLE: During his address, the governor also doubled down on his commitment to protect undocumented immigrants in Illinois. On Friday, President Trump said his administration is “strongly looking at” releasing thousands of detained migrants into so-called sanctuary cities. But Pritzker’s calling his bluff. “The president is a xenophobe and a racist…So when he makes threats like this, they’re upon that history,” Pritzker said. “The fact is we’re not going to ship 11 or 12 million people out of the country, no matter what Donald Trump says. I’m not going to let that happen in Illinois. It’s not going to happen in the United States.” He said Illinois will remain open to immigrants, despite threats from the White House.)
— Pritzker Tells Journalists ‘We Need You’ – DANA VOLLMER (DIERSEN: I should write a book about how since 2000 the following have treated a) me, b) my GOPUSA ILLINOIS emails, and c) my www.gopillinois.com website: activists, candidates, elected officials, party leaders, major donors, political consultants, etc. in Wheaton, Glen Ellyn, Milton Township, DuPage County, and Illinois who state that they are religious, conservative, and/or Republican.)
https://www.northernpublicradio.org/post/pritzker-tells-journalists-we-need-you
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Governor J.B. Pritzker held his largest press conference over the weekend – and he’s promising media transparency under his administration. Speaking before more than a hundred journalists at the Illinois News Broadcasters Association’s annual spring conference in Normal, Pritzker said he’s committed to helping Illinois media tell the stories that matter. Pritzker said mutual respect between journalists and elected officials is critical in the era of “fake news.” “If we want our democracy to thrive, we must have a first amendment that thrives,” Pritzker said. “Those with political power must be extremely careful that when we disagree with what’s being said, we nevertheless fight for your right to get the information out.” Illinois Public Media reporters questioned Pritzker about the lack of cooperation from some state departments, namely the Illinois Department of Corrections and Department of Human Services. Pritzker said he’s still hiring new staff after the Rauner administration – and that he’ll step in when government officials are unresponsive.)ILLINOIS FAMILY ACTION

CHICAGO TRIBUNE
— Trump sanctuary city idea could help migrants stay in U.S. – AP (DIERSEN:
Yes, but because illegals lack education, lack job skills, lack work
experience, have serious financial problems, have serious health problems,
and/or do not speak English, sanctuary cities might very well go bankrupt a)
teaching their residents Spanish and b) providing illegals with housing, food,
clothing, education, transportation, job skills, etc. before illegals become Democrat
voters. Of course, sanctuary cites would have to require all their residents to
speak, read, and write Spanish. Democrats in sanctuary cities want illegals to
help Democrats get rid of Republicans once and for all. Will Democrats let
Republicans stay in sanctuary cities a) if they give money to Democrats, b) if
they learn to speak, read, and write Spanish, and/or b) if they give their jobs
to illegals?)

“unaccompanied children” and “moms and kids,” into the Rio
Grande Valley, overwhelming the Texas processing facilities, President Obama
inexplicably targeted small and mid-sized cities (same as the Trump officials’
emails) as their next destination of choice. And instead of talking about it,
they really did try to bus the unvetted migrants into small cities such as
Murietta, California; Yuma, Arizona; and a conservative area of New Mexico,
bringing crime, disease, and a high need for social services, without
consulting those communities. The residents protested, and the Obama
administration declared them ‘racist’ in a bid to scare them into line. I was
on the ground at Murietta during those protests when I was an editorial writer
at Investor’s Business Daily, and I spoke to the citizens of that city, who
were not only far from racist, but actually multiracial themselves. They told
me this: Asked why the rebellion was centered in Murrieta and not elsewhere,
the residents all had one answer: they were Reagan Country, and it was on their
soil that the Reagan revolution was lit in 1978.)

https://japantoday.com/category/national/retiring-late-as-pensions-underwhelm-more-japanese-opt-to-prolong-employment
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Yasuhiro Furuse could have retired two years ago, but he
wasn’t entirely happy with his pension income and had to put any such thoughts
to bed. It was just as well for Furuse’s employer Orix Corp, a financial
services group, which would have struggled to find a replacement, with Japan’s
jobless rate at 26-year lows. This win-win arrangement, increasingly common in
Japan, highlights a structural and policy challenge facing the world’s
third-biggest economy. Prime Minister Shinzo Abe’s government is considering
raising the retirement age to 70 or 75 from 65 now, to ease pension burdens as
well as a labor crunch. But a more durable longer term solution, analysts say,
is for Japan to relax its strict controls on foreign workers. “I have no
choice but to work,” said Furuse, 62, a senior adviser at Orix’s corporate
business headquarters. “I appreciate that I could keep working, which
makes me better off than living on pension and savings. Besides, I want to do
something to contribute to society.” Japan’s population is among the
oldest on the planet and has one of the longest lifespans, putting pressure on
its pension system. The old-age dependency ratio — or the numbers of elderly
against those of working age — is the highest in the OECD. The situation is
being compounded by Japan’s deep-seated reluctance to fully open its gates to
foreign workers, leaving many companies to rely on the old guard to overcome
severe labour shortages.)

dump the traditional family, right to life, immigration, Second Amendment,
illegal drugs, equal opportunity (no race or gender based preference giving)

https://mynorthwest.com/1334678/dori-bill-and-melinda-gates-poll/?
(FROM THE ARTICLE:
According to the poll, 53 percent of people the PR firm talked to said that we
are not spending enough on homelessness “when they learned that homelessness
increased by nine percent [sic] between 2014-17, while spending on social
services had only increased by 2.4 percent.” That is the purest definition of a
push-poll question — where you phrase a question a certain way to get a desired
result. And they only got it barely above 50 percent even with that biased
phrasing. What the question doesn’t tell you is that the reason homelessness
has increased by 10 percent is because people have moved from all over this
country, because they’ve heard this is the best region in America to be an
addict.)

QUAD CITIES ONLINE
— DIERSEN HEADLINE: Scott Reader discusses reparations and racism. How much in
reparations have you paid already? The more that you have paid the price of
Affirmative Action (AA), Diversity, and Inclusion, the more that you have paid
reparations. Democrats use AA, Diversity, Inclusion, up-or-our, and budget cuts
to make Republicans pay reparations. My Democrat GAO superiors forced me to
retire in 1997 when I was 49 years old, gave me unfair performance expectations
and 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 $19,568 (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 resign in 1969 and disallowed my sick
leave requests in 1969 and 1968.)

patriotic, Republican, American, White, male, older people, rich people, gun
owners, German Americans, draft avoiders, and those whose ancestors have been

anti-draft avoiders, and anti-those whose ancestors have been in America for a
long time.)
https://www.americanthinker.com/articles/2019/04/immigration_as_economic_warfare.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The
first aspect of this warfare is simple. The government institutes programs that
give special privileges to one group of people in the form of educational
access and benefits, exclusive contracts with the government, quotas within the
job market, and legal protections that are exclusive to those people. While
many of these benefits are subtle, on multigenerational timelines they
effectively destroy the unprotected group while ensuring the success of the
protected group. In addition to this, there is the selective enforcement of
laws and the absolution of some groups from many laws. However, the more
important aspect of this warfare is the collusion of immigrants to exclude
portions of the native population from the economy. This activity has two
facets — exclusion from the market and denial of service.)

Trump-haters want to get rid of you once and for all. What if I had claimed

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%

— Workplace investigations: Handling employee complaints and problems successfully
We live in a litigious world, and nowhere is that truer than in the workplace.
Especially since the #MeToo era began, workplace investigations have come under
increased scrutiny. – Lynn Cavanaugh (DIERSEN: I should write a book about the
lawsuits and grievances that I have filed or been an active member in. Of
course, even though I have not filed a lawsuit since 1998, if I sought a
government office or a political office, my critics/opponents, their
operatives, and their dupes would demonize me, denigrate me, and condemn me as
being litigious. Of course, they side with the defendants in the lawsuits that
I have filed and with my former employers.)

courses. Nevertheless, I used my own money and my own time to earn a) a
job-related bachelor’s degree when I was 21 in 1970 and job-related master’s
