— State GOP picks new leaders to ‘beat the machine,’ including Palatine’s Del Mar. – Marni Pyke (COMMENT: Illinois Republicans anxiously await a press release on this from the Illinois Republican Party (IRP). If/when the IRP forms a committee to reach out to conservatives, that is, to platform Republicans, that is, to its base, I volunteer to serve on that committee. The overwhelming majority of the aforesaid want direct election of IRP State Central Committee members.)
https://www.dailyherald.com/20240814/illinois-state-politics/state-gop-picks-new-leaders-to-beat-the-machine-including-palatines-del-mar/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: A northwest suburbanite is taking a leadership role with the Illinois GOP as the party works to rebuild and end what its leader calls the “blue funk.” State Central Committee member Aaron Del Mar of Palatine has been chosen by Chair Kathy Salvi as an Illinois Republican Party co-chair, along with state Sen. Jason Plummer of Edwardsville and State Central Committee member Judy Diekelman of Thornton. Salvi also picked Joan McCarthy Lasonde of Wilmette as vice chair. “Co-Chairs Aaron Del Mar, Sen. Jason Plummer, and Judy Diekelman as well as Vice Chair Joan McCarthy Lasonde and all of our leaders across the state represent the diverse opinions of our party and our state,” Salvi said Wednesday. “This group will broaden our coalition, expand our footprint, and will beat the machine that Democrats like (former Speaker) Mike Madigan and (Gov.) J.B. Pritzker have built.” Salvi took office in July vowing to “make Illinois red again,” and end the party’s “blue funk.” With a woman at the helm of the state GOP and his background as a Filipino- American, “this is a very historic time,” said Del Mar. “This will be the first time the Illinois Republican Party has had a person of color in leadership. “I’m very excited. Kathy has a different personality than I do, she brings different strengths so I think we very much complement each other.” Del Mar, a businessman who ran for lieutenant governor in 2022, was a Republican National Convention delegate in July, and has served as Cook County Republican chairman and Palatine village councilman. The Illinois GOP faces challenges in a heavily Democratic state and recently lost Chair Don Tracy, who blamed party infighting for his resignation. One key to success is to make sure “grass-roots organizations and grass-roots members of the Republican Party have a voice,” Del Mar said. “They’re the people who show up at the monthly meetings, the people that put lawn signs into the ground, that march in the parades. I think for far too long, they’ve been ignored and they’ve been taken for granted.” Del Mar, who campaigned statewide in 2022, hopes to bridge divisions between rural conservative and urban moderate Republicans. “If we can create a relationship where there’s a conversation and people have a better understanding — that adds a lot of value,” Del Mar said, adding he’s visiting downstate Illinois soon. “If you want buy-in from those (rural) counties you have to show up.” Del Mar’s father, a mechanical engineer, immigrated from the Philippines. His mother is a retired nurse of German/Swedish descent who grew up on Chicago’s South Side. “When they start talking about issues like immigration, those things hit home and I can give a personal story,” Del Mar said.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: Chartered buses will bring demonstrators from Minnesota, Michigan, Indiana, Wisconsin and beyond, said a chief organizer behind planned marches next week, Hatem Abudayyeh, the national chair of the U.S. Palestinian Community Network advocacy group. Abudayyeh said he held a virtual meeting with members across the country to gauge interest in changing direction after Biden stepped aside from seeking the nomination. There was quick consensus, he said. “We’re not going to do anything different. We’re going to mobilize,” Abudayyeh said. “Harris represents the administration; she represents Biden. There is nothing that she has expressed independently that tells us she does not support the policies.”)

— ’Idiocracy’ is upon us. – J.A. Frascino
https://www.americanthinker.com/blog/2024/08/idiocracy_is_upon_us.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: For decades America functioned as a meritocracy, the land of opportunity with freedom of speech and limited government. With the recent ascent of the radical left as a political force, these values have undergone erosion by DEI, identity politics, cancel culture, “newspeak”, and government bureaucratic intrusion. The radical left challenges patriotism, religion, traditional family structure as our raison d’être, our identity. The resulting divisiveness drives us into ideologic rabbit holes. Tribalism pervades the culture. We identify now as liberal or conservative with ideologic chips on our shoulders. We have evolved into a partisan ideocracy. And now, with the presumptive Democrat ticket in the offing, we are on the brink of evolving into an idiocracy.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: Social media influencers got the royal treatment at the White House on Wednesday as President Joe Biden gave a nod to their ability to hold sway with millions of loyal followers. The White House played host to a group of more than 100 influencers, also known as content creators, across a range of media platforms — from chefs and makeup artists to fitness gurus and medical students — to talk about issues including mental health, pay equity and the abuse of artificial intelligence. Biden stopped by to tell the influencers gathered in the Indian Treaty Room in the White House complex: “The fact is, you are the future.” “You’re the source of the news,” he said. “You are the new possibilities. You are the new breakthrough in how we communicate.” Biden added, to laughter: “And that’s why I invited you to the White House, because I’m looking for a job.”)

https://www.dailyherald.com/20240813/news/pro-trump-rally-in-woodstock-sunday-on-eve-of-dnc-caravans-of-gop-supporters-from-across-region-exp/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Republicans from across the Chicago region and beyond are expected to converge on the McHenry County Fairgrounds in Woodstock Sunday for a show of support for former President Donald Trump just before the Democratic National Conventions gets underway in Chicago. The Trump Now-Save the American Dream Rally is set for 12:30 to 6 p.m. Sunday, Aug. 18, at the fairgrounds, 11900 Country Club Road, Woodstock. Tickets range from $30 for general admission to $300 for a VIP seat, according to the Parading for Trump website. Those supporting the former president in his reelection bid plan to caravan to the event. Caravans of his supporters are set to arrive from Stratford Square Mall in Bloomingdale, Petersen Park in McHenry, the Campton Township Highway Department parking lot in Lily Lake in Kane County, Antioch’s Metra station, the Tinley Park Convention Center, the shopping center at 2341 Sycamore Road in DeKalb and from Halsted and Division streets in Chicago. Paraders are asked to decorate their vehicles in pro-Trump gear. The speakers list includes conservative commentator and Chicago-area native Charlie Kirk, GOP strategist Roger Stone, Mike Lindell of MyPillow and retired Army lieutenant general and former Trump national security adviser Michael Flynn. Entertainment for the day will be from musicians Thompson Square, Nate Venturelli, Diva Montell and Anthony “Frank” Cassano. There’s no indication that Trump or his running mate, Ohio Sen. J.D. Vance, will appear. Gary Rabine, a Bull Valley businessman and former candidate for Illinois governor, is hosting the rally. According to the event website, the event is paid for by The American Dream PAC, with profits from the event “dispersed … to organizations focused on Get out the Vote in our communities and swing states, conservative candidates and organizations focused on helping Trump become our 47th President.”)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: McHenry city officials were surprised when they read news reports Tuesday that Petersen Park was set as a meetup point Sunday to caravan to the Trump Now-Save the American Dream Rally in Woodstock. Petersen Park is playing host to the annual Bands, Brews & BBQ event this weekend, with its largest day expected on Sunday, McHenry Deputy Chief Tom Walsh said. It could see even larger crowds later in the day, as McHenry’s community fireworks show is due to take place at the park after being was postponed because of poor weather during Fiesta Days in July. In social media posts and emails, organizers of the rally – in support of former President Donald Trump and other Republican candidates on the ballot in November, and held on the eve of the Democratic National Convention in Chicago – encouraged GOP faithful to meet up beginning at 10:30 a.m. Sunday at McHenry’s Petersen Park and convoy at 11:30 a.m. to the McHenry County Fairgrounds in Woodstock. Caravans of supporters are also expected to descend on Woodstock from various meetup spots across the Chicago region and in DeKalb. The gates for Bands, Brews and BBQ are set to open at 1:30 p.m. Sunday, McHenry Area Rotary President Diana Mark said. Vendors, the band and others will be setting up before then will be in and out of the parking area earlier, Mark said. Following inquiries from the Northwest Herald, organizers of the pro-Trump rally distributed a new flier saying the McHenry meetup would instead be at 10:30 a.m. Sunday at Althoff Park. The event’s website, paradingfortrump.com , still listed Petersen Park as of Tuesday evening, however. Prior to the location change, Walsh had said: “I am concerned about space. I don’t know details about where they are meeting up” or whether cars will be left at the Petersen lot during the day. “We can’t have this conflict in the parking lot,” he said. McHenry Chief of Police John Birk asked Walsh to reach out to the Trump event organizers. The rally is set for 12:30 to 6 p.m. Sunday at the Fairgrounds, 11900 Country Club Road, Woodstock. Organizers did not need a temporary use permit for the rally, as the fairground is exempt from the permit process, Alicia Schueller, director of public affairs for McHenry County. Food and liquor licenses have been secured for the event. The McHenry County Sheriff’s Office has asked Woodstock Police for additional support during the rally, City Manager Roscoe Stelford said Tuesday. That’s not unusual for large events, Stelford said, adding that two Woodstock police officers are helping at the Democratic National Convention in Chicago next week. Those same two officers also aided with the Republican National Convention in Milwaukee, Stelford said.)

— Negotiating job offers (COMMENT: GAO audits IRS. In 1980, when I was 31 years old, the Democrats who ran GAO forced me to take $22,996/year (21%) pay cut in today’s dollars to transfer from IRS to GAO. They would not have done that if I had been a Democrat, minority, female, or veteran. I had worked for IRS for almost 9 years, the last 5 1/2 years of which at the GS-12 Step 1-5 Levels, currently $97,079–$110,020/year. I had almost completed the requirements for a master’s degree in accounting from DePaul. I had passed the CPA examination on my first attempt in 1979. I had earned an MBA from Loyola in 1976. My Democrat GAO superiors, supervisors, coworkers, and subordinates used my having to take that pay cut against me viciously. They ignored/dismissed/belittled my earning that master’s degree from DePaul in 1980, my passing the Certified Internal Auditor examination on my first attempt in 1981, and my becoming a licensed CPA in 1981. They succeeded in a) delaying my promotions back to GS-12 until 1982, b) assigning me to audits IRS until 1986 and then after 1988, c) delaying my promotion to GS-13 until 1986, and d) never promoting me to GS-14.)

https://www.chicagotribune.com/2024/08/13/editorial-western-illinois-university-layoffs-state-equitable-funding/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Between 2010 and 2014, the number of students at the school hovered around 12,000. But then it took a dive over several years. In fall 2023, the university enrolled 7,023 students. Interim President Kristi Mindrup has said she expects enrollment this fall to be between 5,500 and 6,000 students. That might yet change, but it’s still a big drop in one year and not something so easily blamed on demographics. We’d also wager most Illinoisans didn’t know that some of their state universities are currently operating at 50% of previous capacity.)

GOPUSA ILLINOIS
— Which plank in the Democrat Party platform has caused you the most harm? For me, it is the Affirmative Action(AA)/DEI plank, that is, the race and gender based preference giving plank, that is, the patronage, political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, age discrimination, religious discrimination, and national origin discrimination plank. My Democrat GAO, IRS, and Post Office superiors used that plank, up-or-out, and budget cuts to waste my career and to get rid of me. All my coworkers who they promoted over me were Democrats who were minority, female, younger than me, and/or veteran and/or had less work experience than I had, had less education than I had, had no professional certifications or fewer than I had, and/or had no professional license like the one I had. If I had been a Democrat, minority, female, and/or veteran, my Democrat superiors would have promoted me into their Senior Executive Service long before I was 40. They ignored/dismissed/belittled that fact that I earned a master’s degree in financial markets and trading from IIT and became a Forensic Accountant in 1997. 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 passed the Certified Internal Auditor examination on my first attempt and became a licensed CPA in 1981. I earned a master’s degree in accounting from DePaul in 1980. I passed the CPA examination on my first attempt in 1979. I earned an MBA from Loyola in 1976. I earned a bachelor’s degree in management from NIU and passed the Federal Service Entrance Examination in 1970. My critics/opponents in the Milton Township Republican Organization, DuPage County Republican Central Committee, and Illinois Republican Party reject the equal opportunity (no race or gender based preference giving) plank in the Republican Party platform, that is, they promote AA/DEI. – Dave Diersen

WASHINGTON RXAMINER
— Kamala has a record on immigration – Editorial
https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/opinion/3118647/kamala-record-immigration/
(FROM THE EDITORIAL: Pinning down Vice President Kamala Harris on any substantive policy matters has been impossible since she helped shove President Joe Biden out of the presidential race. She refuses to answer questions, and her staff is, at best, cryptic in what little information it releases. For example, when asked if Harris still supports her 2019 position that illegally crossing the border be decriminalized, an unidentified campaign official told Axios, “Unauthorized border crossings are illegal.” But this is just a statement of current law. It doesn’t tell us what Harris believes, if anything, about whether unauthorized border crossings should continue to be illegal or if she will prosecute migrants who break the law. We still don’t know where Harris stands on decriminalizing illegal immigration. As much as Democrats may wish otherwise, Harris did not fall out of a coconut tree without a record. There are 20 years of factual evidence about how she deals with illegal immigrants, and voters should look at them. It will give an accurate and disturbing picture of Harris’s ideas on immigration.)

And you can talk about if you’re the wokest or woker, but just stay more woke than less woke.” – Charles Gasparino

— What discourages you from helping elect candidates? For me, it is far too many of them on ballots in my precinct since 2000 have blamed their defeats on me and on my GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters. I should write a book about them. I would focus on those who I have done the most to help elect. I would focus on those who have taken the most/biggest adverse actions against me. I would focus on those who reject the most planks in the Republican Party platform. I would focus on those who reject direct election of Illinois Republican Party State Central Committee members. I would focus on those who destroy 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 wrong doing, and/or who refuse to give them money. – Dave Diersen

My Democrat IRS superiors hated Nixon. They took their hatred against Nixon out on me. They disallowed my travel vouchers. They got rid of the IRS manager who had promoted me in 1972, 1973, and 1974. They made it clear that IRS would never promote me again.)

ASSOCIATED PRESS
— Here’s a look at questions about Tim Walz’s military record. – MEG KINNARD (COMMENT: Since I was 18 years old in 1966, my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes have used my avoiding the Vietnam War draft against me. They would stress that Vance has accomplished way more than I have even though his miliary service set him back 4 years. In my defense, I stress that my Democrat Post Office (1966-1969), Firestone Stores (1970-1972), IRS (1971-1980), and GAO (1980-1997) superiors used my avoiding the Vietnam War draft against me very big time.)
https://apnews.com/article/walz-national-guard-military-ae43d684bf1319e535f9f620552155d7
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Vance enlisted in the Marine Corps after graduating high school, serving four years as a combat correspondent, a type of military journalist, and deploying to Iraq in that capacity in 2005. Neither Trump nor Harris has served in the U.S. military. Trump received a series of deferments during Vietnam, including one attained with a physician’s letter stating that he suffered from bone spurs in his feet. The Harris campaign statement said Walz “would never insult or undermine any American’s service to this country” and “thanks Senator Vance for putting his life on the line for our country. It’s the American way.”)

— Democrats and RINOs ever-increasingly use DEI to get rid of Republicans. I should write about RINOs who have used DEI the most to get rid of Republicans. I would focus on those who have taken the most/biggest adverse actions against me. I would focus on past and present a) leaders of the Milton Township Republican Organization, DuPage County Republican Central Committee, and Illinois Republican Party, b) Republican leaders of Wheaton, Wheaton Park District, Wheaton Chamber of Commerce, Milton Township, DuPage County, and Illinois, c) Republican candidates on ballots in my precinct, d) conservative leaders and activists, e) religious leaders and activists, and f) those who I have sued and their lawyers. Of course, the aforesaid stress and paint negatively that I am conservative, Republican, White, male, older (born in 1948), non-veteran, Protestant, 100% German American, my ancestors have been in America since 1844, I have lived in DuPage County only since 1978, etc. What RINOs do is political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, age discrimination, religious discrimination, and national origin discrimination.

MEDIUM
— Democrats and RINOs ask “Is the Idea of Meritocracy Misleading Us About Success?” and say “Why hard work isn’t the whole story.” According to my critics/opponents, I owe all my accomplishments in life to my benefitting tremendously from discrimination against those who do not share my demographics, that is, from discrimination against those who are liberal/moderate, Democrat, Libertarian, Green, Independent, RINO, minority, female, younger, veteran, LGBTQ, non-Protestant, non-German American, and/or have ancestors who have not been in America for a long time. In my defense, neither of my parents attended college, my father was only the first of my ancestors to earn a high school diploma, my mother never attended high school, I had to work my way through college, and neither me, nor my parents, nor any of my ancestors were ever in a position to discriminate against anyone and they never did discriminate against anyone.)https://medium.com/a-little-stoic-wisdom/is-the-idea-of-meritocracy-misleading-us-about-success-2c1bf5b6e255

— The nightmare is over: Chicago White Sox snap historic 21-game losing streak with 5-1 win against Oakland A’s. – LaMond Pope (COMMENT: What was your career’s longest losing streak? Mine was 1974-1986. I made GS-12 (currently $97,079) when I was 25 in 1974, but I did not make GS-13 (currently $115,439) until I was 38 in 1986. During that time, I earned 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 in 1981, and I became a licensed CPA in 1981. I never made GS-14 (currently $136,414) even though I became a Certified Fraud Examiner in 1990, Certified Government Financial Manager in 1994, Certified Financial Services Auditor in 1996, and Forensic Accountant in 1997 and I earned a master’s degree in financial markets and trading from IIT in 1997. All my coworkers who my Democrat IRS and GAO superiors promoted over me during that time were Democrats a) who had less work experience than I had, had less education than I had, had no professional certifications or fewer than I had, and/or had no professional license like the one I had and/or b) who were minority, female, younger than me, veteran, non-Protestant, non-German American, and/or had ancestors who had not been in America for a long time.)

ILLINOIS REPUBLICAN PARTY
— Harris VP pick: “Another Radical Leftist”
https://illinois.gop/category/news/
(PRESS RELEASE: Illinois Republican Party Chair Kathy Salvi responded this morning to the news that Kamala Harris has chosen Minnesota Governor Tim Walz as her running mate. See below for her statement: “Vice President Harris’s pick reflects the agenda she intends to bring to this nation: another radical leftist from a deep blue state who will continue the disastrous Bidenomics policies crippling the nation’s economy as we speak. At least Americans can breathe easy knowing that Illinois’s own out-of-touch leftist billionaire governor JB Pritzker won’t be a heartbeat away from the Presidency anytime soon. With leftists like these headlining the Democrat ticket, President Trump’s message of secure borders, safe streets, and prosperous communities will win in November.”)

— Illinois announces $9 million investment in new licensure process (COMMENT: I became a licensed CPA when I was 32 years old in 1981. That made my Democrat GAO superiors, supervisors, coworkers, and subordinates furious because it further frustrated their efforts to get rid of me. Previously, they were frustrated by my passing the Certified Internal Auditor examination on my first attempt in 1981, my earning a master’s degree in accounting from DePaul in 1980, and my earning an MBA from Loyola in 1976. Subsequently, they were frustrated by my becoming a Certified Fraud Examiner in 1990, Certified Government Financial Manager in 1994, Certified Financial Services Auditor in 1996, and Forensic Accountant in 1997 and my earning a master’s degree in financial markets and trading from IIT in 1997.)

— Democrats ask “Are you better off than you were four years ago?” My Civil Service Retirement System pension is only $65,165. In today’s dollars, a) that is less that what my salary was ($66,942) when I was 23 years old in 1973 and b) that is $84,910 less than what my salary was ($150,975) when I was 49 years old in 1997. That is because my Democrat superiors in the federal government wasted my career and forced me to retire when I was 49 years old in 1997. They wasted what I learned earning a) a job-related bachelor’s degree and three job-related master’s degrees, b) six job-related professional certifications, and c) a job-related professional license. They wasted what I had learned working for IRS for almost 9 years and for GAO for almost 18 years.

Must commonly, they asked me questions to confirm that I opposed race and gender based preference giving and that I opposed the promotion of a) dependency on government, b) LGBTQ, c) abortion, d) booze, gambling, pot, and other vices, and e) diminishment of Second Amendment rights.)

NEWS NATION
— JD Vance’s story an example of meritocracy. – Mike Huckabee (COMMENT: According to my critics/opponents, I owe all my accomplishments in life to my benefitting tremendously from discrimination against those who do not share my demographics, that is, from discrimination against those who are liberal/moderate, Democrat, Libertarian, Green, Independent, RINO, minority, female, younger, veteran, LGBTQ, non-Protestant, non-German American, and/or have ancestors who have not been in America for a long time. In my defense, neither of my parents attended college, my father was only the first of my ancestors to earn a high school diploma, my mother never attended high school, I had to work my way through college, and neither me nor my parents, nor any of my ancestors were ever in a position to discriminate against anyone and they never did discriminate against anyone.)
https://www.newsnationnow.com/politics/2024-election/jd-vances-story-meritocracy-mike-huckabee/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee, a Republican, pushed back on this, saying he doesn’t think Vance “pretends anything,” citing his military and academic record. “When you work your way through Ohio State, summa cum laude, then go to Yale Law, work your way through that, how do you pretend that?” Huckabee asked on “NewsNation Now.” “You either do it or you don’t.” Huckabee noted that Vance grew up in poverty and wrote about his struggles in his memoir, “Hillbilly Elegy.” To Huckabee, “that’s meritocracy.” “I think a lot of Americans appreciate people who weren’t handed anything but hard luck and made something remarkable out of it,” he said.)
HARVARD LAW REVIEW
— Eventually, everyone’s motivations come out in the wash. All my critics/opponents, all their operatives, and all their dupes are involved in politics and/or government to get more preference for themselves, for their wives, for their children, and/or for those who share their demographics. They all blame those who are following for their problems: conservative, Republican, American, White, male, older, heterosexual, married, childless, non-veteran, Protestant, German American, and/or have ancestors who have been in America for a long time.

— Harris says ‘no denying’ America’s history of racism. – Nick Robertson (COMMENT: Ever-increasingly, the longer that your ancestors have been in America and the more of the following that you are, the more reparations that Democrats want you to pay: conservative, Republican, White, male, older, non-poor, Protestant, and/or German American. Why aren’t Democrats demanding reparations from Americans alive today whose ancestors owned slaves?)

C-SPAN
— 2024 Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump and his running mate, Sen. JD Vance (R-OH), campaigned at a rally in Atlanta. The former president criticized his new rival, Democratic presumptive presidential nominee Kamala Harris, about issues such as immigration and transgenderism and said, “she’s a dumb version of Bernie Sanders and, actually, further left than him.”

AZ MIRROR
— Democrats, Republicans view precinct committeemen in very different lights. – JEREMY DUDA (COMMENT: Milton Township Republican Organization (MTRO) leaders appointed me to fill a vacant Republican Precinct Committeeman (RPC) position in 1999. I was elected RPC for that precinct in 2000 and every 2 years since. Because MTRO leaders soon determined that I am too conservative for them, that is, because I promote too many planks in the Republican Party platform that they reject including the following planks, they would not appoint me now to fill a vacant RPC position: personal responsibility, traditional marriage and family, right to life, immigration, illegal drugs, Second Amendment, and equal opportunity (no race or gender based preference giving). Further, they would not appoint me RPC now because they know that they cannot manipulate or dominate me and because I refuse to a) glorify and praise them, b) pander to them, c) serve as one of their operatives or dupes, d) cover up their wrong doing, or e) give them money. Further, they blame me and blame my GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters for all the defeats that Republican candidates on ballots in my precinct have suffered since 2000. Further, they rudely had me removed from the Illinois Republican Party State Convention Platform and Resolutions Committee this year. They rudely threw my April 2024 PC letter in their trash. They rudely had me removed as the Republican fundraiser for Wheaton Independence Day parades and fireworks in 2021, a role that I had since 2005. They rudely killed my bid to be appointed to fill a Wheaton City Council West District vacancy in 2019. They rudely gerrymandered my precinct in 2015. They rudely had me removed as the TAPROOT Republicans of Illinois chairman in 2012. They rudely had me removed as a Wheaton Chamber of Commerce Government Affairs Committee member in 2011. They rudely had me removed me as MTRO webmaster in 2010 and 2004. They rudely had me removed as an Illinois Center Right Coalition (ICRC) Steering Committee member in 2007. They almost rudely succeeded in getting ICRC to censure me for my GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters in 2006. They rudely killed my bid to serve as MTRO Treasurer in 2004. According to them, I bring all my problems on myself, that is, I create all my own problems.)

CRAIN’S CHICAGO BUSINESS
— Democrats run Illinois. Democrats acknowledge that “Illinois ranks last at keeping rich people from moving out.” The more money that you earn/have, the harder that it is for Democrat and RINO leaders to manipulate/dominate you. My federal pension is only $65,165/year and my Social Security is only $2,935/year, but still, no one can manipulate/dominate me. That said, the less money that you earn/have, the easier that it is for Democrat and RINO leaders to harm you. They removed me from the Illinois Republican Party State Convention Platform and Resolutions Committee this year. They ended my service as the Republican fundraiser for Wheaton Independence Day parades and fireworks in 2021, a role that I had since 2005.
https://www.chicagobusiness.com/residential-real-estate/illinois-ranks-last-keeping-rich-people-moving-out
(FROM THE ARTICLE: A chart in the report shows Illinois with the worst record of retaining people who make $200,000 or more per year and, probably just as unsurprising, Florida with the best. For every $200,000-plus earner who leaves Florida, two and three-quarters move in. The lost income in Illinois from all out-migration, not just high earners, was about $9.85 billion in recent years, according to earlier IRS data. Based on individual tax returns filed in 2021 and 2022, the IRS reports about $19.38 billion in adjusted gross income left the state and about $9.58 billion moved in, for a net loss of $9.85 billion.)
— Democrats say “The one-hour delay that preceded Donald Trump’s July 31 appearance at the National Association of Black Journalists was not because of audio problems, as Trump later claimed, but because the former president objected to the group’s plan to fact-check his remarks in real time.” During the almost 18 years that I worked for the Democrats who ran GAO, I often worked as a fact checker, and especially during my last 11 years as a GS-13 Step 1-10 Analyst, currently $115,439-$150,075/year.

But Democrats would have responded that Trump would not have picked Vance if Vance was older, Protestant, or had a wife who was White.

(FROM THE NEWSLETTER: JIM EDGAR’s VOTE: Former Republican Gov. Jim Edgar said he’ll be voting for Kamala Harris for president come November. “I just worry about [Donald Trump] getting to be president again. I think there are a lot of negative ramifications,” he told Playbook. “You have to put the country ahead of partisan politics, and to me there’s no choice but to vote for somebody other than Trump.” Edgar’s decision isn’t a complete surprise.

NATIONAL REVIEW
— Trump Is Right about Illegal Immigration and Black Jobs – PETER KIRSANOW (COMMENT: Since I was 13 years old in 1962, my critics/opponents have demonized me, denigrated me, and condemned me for my taking jobs that they say should have been given to Blacks. I did yard work 1962-1964, delivered newspapers 1962-1966, washed dishes 1964-1966, cleaned golf shoes, chipped slag, and pumped gasoline in 1966, delivered mail 1966-1969, worked on an automobile assembly line in 1970, sold tires, automotive services, and major appliances 1970-1971, pumped gasoline 1971-1972, collected delinquent taxes 1971-1980, and audited federal agencies 1980-1997. They stressed the many unemployed Blacks in Chicagoland and especially in the south suburbs. In 1997, my Democrat GAO superiors forced me to retire early so that they could give my job and my preferred corner office to my Black subordinate. My critics/opponents who never took jobs like the ones I took make it very clear that they would never stoop to take the jobs that I took. While I worked for the Post Office 1966-1969, IRS 1971-1980, and GAO 1980-1997, many, most, and at times, virtually all of my superiors, supervisors, coworkers, and/or subordinates were Black. Many, most, if not virtually all of my critics/opponents have never worked for Blacks, never worked with Blacks, or supervised Blacks.

My Democrat superiors did everything that they could to waste my career and get rid of me. All the Democrats who they promoted over me a) had less work experience than I had, b) had less education than I had, c) had no professional certifications or fewer than I had, and/or d) had no professional license like the one I had. They all were minority, female, younger than me, veteran, non-Protestant, non-German American, and/or had ancestors who had not been in America for a long time.

I should write a book about those IRP, DuPage County Republican Central Committee, and Milton Township Republican Organization leaders who have blamed me and have blamed my GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters the most for losses suffered by Republican candidates on ballots in my precinct since 2000.

https://illinois.gop/illinois-democrats-deny-harris-border-failures/
(THE PRESS RELEASE: CHICAGO — Yesterday, Illinois Democrats denied reality voting against condemning Vice President Kamala Harris’s handling of the migrant crisis that has overwhelmed cities like Chicago and others across the nation. Every Democrat (except one who lacked the courage to vote on the position) voted down the resolution, which passed the House of Representatives yesterday. Illinois Republican Party Chair Kathy Salvi released the following statement: “Democrats in this state have told us to believe our lying eyes so many times, they’ve started to do it themselves. From denying unquestionable outmigration numbers to gaslighting families with tax hikes they call tax cuts, the lies have become so extreme that Democrats in this state actually believe Vice President Harris’s handling of the border was not an unmitigated disaster. Under the Biden/Harris administration, border interactions have skyrocketed, reaching an all time peak of 250,000 just this past December. Democrats who voted to applaud Vice President Harris’s border policy should know that her failures are your failures this November.“)

— How Vice President Kamala Harris got started in politics. – William La Jeunesse
https://www.yahoo.com/news/vice-president-kamala-harris-got-165231260.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Vice President Kamala Harris got her start in politics at age 29, when she was just out of law school, at the Alameda County District Attorney’s Office, where she met a 60-year-old kingmaker: California Assembly Speaker Willie Brown — arguably then the state’s most powerful politician. Brown, while estranged from his wife, remained married. However, socially, he and Harris were seen everywhere and never denied being close. Brown appointed Harris to several well-paid state commissions: the state Insurance Commission, the state Unemployment Insurance Appeals Board and later, the California Medical Assistance Commission. Harris came from a learned household. She was born in Oakland, California, to an Indian-born mother and a Jamaican-born father. Both were professors — one at Berkeley, the other at Stanford. Harris’ parents divorced when she was 7. Following her parents’ split, she moved to Illinois, then to Quebec, Canada, alongside her sister and mother. After high school, Harris attended Howard University, where she joined the debate team and claimed to demonstrate “almost every weekend.” Later, she attended Hastings College of Law, where, like many of her classmates, she failed her first attempt at the California bar exam, but she passed the second time. In 1998, Harris took a job at the San Francisco District Attorney’s Office, but was later demoted after opposing a measure to try juveniles as adults for felony crimes. After quitting, Harris took a job in the city attorney’s office, and with Brown’s help, raised $600,000 to defeat her former boss to become San Francisco DA. The city’s campaign ethics board fined Harris $30,000 – the highest fine ever levied at the time – for violating campaign finance limits. “I made a very conscious and deliberate decision to become a prosecutor,” she said during a 2003 debate. “I think San Francisco wants a progressive district attorney who is also effective.” As San Francisco DA, she became a controversial figure for opposing the death penalty — even for cop killers — and pursued three-strikes convictions only when they involved violent felonies. After a man murdered officer Isaac Espinoza and Harris refused to pursue the death penalty, Harris received a rare rebuke from Sen. Dianne Feinstein. “I think this district attorney made a very big mistake. As a matter of fact, if I had known she had said that in her campaign, I never would have supported her,” Feinsein said at the time. As district attorney, Harris prosecuted marijuana crimes but rarely sought prison time. In 2010, she became the first woman to serve as California’s attorney general, where she opposed the state’s ban on affirmative action and asked the state Supreme Court to “reaffirm its decision that public colleges and universities may consider race as one factor in admissions decisions.” The U.S. Supreme Court has ruled affirmative action unconstitutional. As AG, she prioritized environmental crimes, obtaining millions in fines from oil companies for failing to monitor underground storage leaks. In 2016, she ran for U.S. senator and won by outmaneuvering Rep. Loretta Sanchez for the union and Latino vote. Harris also had the support of then-President Obama, who called her brilliant, dedicated and tough, adding, “She also happens to be, by far, the best-looking attorney general in the country.” Harris’ appeal is partly demographic, but her law enforcement background also made her an appealing running mate in the wake of the Black Lives Matter protests and rising crime in some cities. In 2019, Harris dismissed criticism of her record as a prosecutor for jailing marijuana offenders and even joked about her own previous cannabis use. “Have you ever smoked?” she was asked on the “Breakfast Club” radio show in 2019. “I have, and I inhaled. I did it, I did it, and it was a long time ago,” she admitted. As district attorney, however, she pushed for higher bail for gun crimes and sought minimum 90-day sentences for possession of concealed or loaded weapons. Later, as a presidential candidate, Harris said she would pursue universal background checks and a ban on assault-style rifles. “I will give the United States Congress 100 days to get their act together and have the courage to pass reasonable gun safety laws and if they fail to do it, then I will take executive action,” she said during a CNN town hall in December 2019. CNN anchor Jake Tapper also suggested to Harris that her “Medicare-for-all” proposal might eliminate private health insurance. Harris’ defense was, “The idea is, everyone gets access to medical care, and you don’t have to go through the process of going through an insurance company, having them giving you approval, going through the paperwork … let’s eliminate that. Let’s move on.” Her signature tax proposal cost an estimated $3 billion. It would have provided a $3,000 tax credit for individuals and $6,000 for married couples. She also proposed lowering pay disparities by requiring large companies to pay men and women in similar jobs equally. Another proposal aimed at raising teacher pay by $13,500. In a 2020 campaign video she explained her economic approach, saying, “It’s about giving people the resources and the support they need so that everyone can be on equal footing and then compete on equal footing. Equitable treatment means we all end up at the same place.” As a candidate for president in 2020, Harris dropped out before the Iowa caucuses. As a candidate, some viewed her policies as too far left, where she seemed to favor big government to solve income and gender inequality.)

— Political parties exist to help elect candidates who can/will defend/advance their platform. The Democrat Party platform is liberal and Illinois Democrat candidates, elected officials, and party leaders furiously promote their party’s platform. The Republican Party platform is conservative, but far too many Illinois Republican candidates, elected officials, and party leaders fail/refuse to promote their party’s platform. Consequently Illinois Republican candidates lose elections. According to Illinois Democrats, Illinois Republican candidates can win if they officially become Democrat Lite candidates, that is, if they officially become RINO candidates, that is, if they officially dump the personal responsibility, traditional marriage and family, right to life, immigration, illegal drugs, Second Amendment, and equal opportunity planks in the Republican Party platform, that is, if they official join the Democrats in promoting dependency on government and charity, LGBTQ, abortion, mass/illegal immigration, booze, gambling, pot, and other vices, diminishment of Second Amendment rights, and race and gender based preference giving. To what extent do the Republican candidates on the November 5, 2024 ballot in your precinct promote the aforesaid planks in the Republican Party platform?

As I got older, because I am Republican, White, male, and non-veteran, my Democrat Post Office, IRS, and GAO superiors ever-increasingly used DEI to waste my federal career and to get rid of me. All my Democrat coworkers who they promoted over me a) had less work experience than I had, b) had less education than I had, c) had no professional certifications or fewer than I had, and/or d) had no professional license like the one I had.

— Democrats say “The Democrats who could be Kamala Harris’ running mate.”
https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/2024-election/kamala-harris-running-mates-democratic-presidential-ticket-rcna162848
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Pritzker, 59, was an active Biden campaign surrogate, traveling to battleground states to stump for him. He founded a nonprofit committee, Think Big America, to advocate for abortion rights and to combat extremism, with a focus on battleground states. Pritzker, a second-term governor who is popular in the state, has been outspoken about protecting women’s reproductive rights and has held up Illinois as a beacon for women seeking access to care. Pritzker has signed a host of progressive initiatives into law, including a ban on assault weapons, ghost guns and switches; an increase in the minimum wage; a measure to enshrine abortion protections into law; and measures to legalize cannabis and expunge records. He has invested in early childhood education, working toward universal preschool in the state. Pritzker has also demonstrated considerable political savvy, having landed the 2024 Democratic National Convention in his state after repeated lobbying. Pritzker is widely considered to be a future presidential contender. As a billionaire who has self-financed his campaigns in the past, he is positioned to effortlessly step into a national campaign and immediately be flush with cash. Pritzker endorsed Harris on Monday.)
