FROM ILLINOIS CENTER-LEFT LEANING SOURCES

CHICAGO SUN-TIMES
— Democrats say “City can’t dawdle to help migrants with money and resources readily available. The Lightfoot administration has been scrambling to find adequate housing for the migrants, who continue to arrive each day.” and ask “So why leave $30 million on the table, and over 1,000 beds unused?”
https://chicago.suntimes.com/2023/5/13/23721382/chicago-migrants-asylum-seekers-lori-lightfoot-brandon-johnson-beds-state-funding-shelters-editorial
— Democrats say “Chicago teens may gather downtown because there are few options in their neighborhoods.” When you were a teen, what did you do when you were not in school? I did yard work 1962-1964. I delivered newspapers 1962-1966. I washed dishes 1964-1966. I cleaned golf shoes, chipped slag, and pumped gasoline in 1966. I delivered mail 1966-1969.

CHICAGO TRIBUNE
— Democrats say “New study shows unemployment rates for Black youth have not recovered since the pandemic.” Government are politics are nasty/vicious. If I sought a government or a political office, my critics/opponents would hint/imply/argue/shout that I have benefitted from discrimination against Blacks and against females big time since I was 16 years old in 1964. They would stress that in November of 1964, the S.S. Kresge in Chicago Heights hired me, a White male, instead of a Black or a female to wash dishes for the minimum wage in its basement. I was the only White male that ever held that bad job. 18 months later, with the money that I earned, I bought a new 1966 Pontiac Tempest Sprint that I used to get to/from jobs cleaning golf shoes, chipping slag, and pumping gasoline during the summer of 1966 and then to get to/from my Park Forest Post Office job and classes at UIC.

DARIEN PATCH
— Democrats say that Jim Zay says that “We (Republicans) Look ‘Foolish” and that “The county party head urged members to unite, but others said Republican leaders are failing to create a big tent” and that “On Saturday, the state Republican Party plans to hold an event at the Holiday Inn in downstate Edwardsville. The party is inviting all GOP grassroots organizations and candidates to express their concerns about the party’s problems.” Of course, I have not been invited because I am no longer the chairman of TAPROOT Republicans of Illinois and I am no longer a member of the Steering Committee of the Illinois Center Right Coalition. Who leads the conservative organizations in Illinois, in your county, in your township, and in your municipality?
https://patch.com/illinois/darien-il/we-look-foolish-dupage-gop-chair
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The chairman of the DuPage County Republican Party urged members last month to unite, rather than tear each other down. “The current climate of tearing down fellow Republicans when we don’t agree 100% is hurting our Party,” Chairman Jim Zay said in a mass email to party members in late April. “Instead of agreeing to disagree and work together on issues we do agree on to build our Party and expand our base, we do the opposite and call out our fellow Republicans and we look foolish and disorganized.” Zay, a DuPage County Board member, called himself a Reagan Republican who believes in a “big tent” party. He said party members should avoid finger-pointing for losses in elections. “(P)eople must stop blaming the election process and saying something irregular is happening at election time,” Zay said. “There are many saying the system is rigged but no one has brought any evidence forward. I have great respect for our legal system in DuPage and I know if any hard facts had been uncovered our State’s Attorney will act,” referring to Republican State’s Attorney Robert Berlin. Patch asked Zay whether his “rigged” election comment had anything to do with Donald Trump. In a text, he said it wasn’t about the former president. He did not comment further. In an interview with Patch, Terry Newsome, a DuPage County Republican committeeman from Darien, said the DuPage and Illinois Republican parties have been led ineffectively. He said the party claims to be a “big tent” party, but he said it does not work to attract minority voters. “We continue to lose ground,” Newsome said. “In reality, as far as I know, there is no one reaching out to make it a bigger tent outside of saying it and patting each other on the back. The grassroots people are so sick of losing with no ramifications for the GOP leadership in the state of Illinois and DuPage County.” The host of the “Black Excellence Hour” on Chicago black talk radio station WVON is also critical of the Illinois Republican leadership. The host, who goes by P-Rae, said she has reached out to party leadership multiple times to go on her show, but they have not taken her up on it. P-Rae said Chicago’s becoming a “sanctuary city is the straw that broke the camel’s back.” “What makes black Chicago so powerful is that we’re the largest voting bloc in the city. You would think they would court that electorate,” she said. Describing herself as “very pro-Trump,” P-Rae said, “I heard a lot of the state party leadership is anti-Trump. Trump is the one who brought black people to the party. The Republican Party in this state needs to bridge that gap.” On Saturday, the state Republican Party plans to hold an event at the Holiday Inn in downstate Edwardsville. The party is inviting all GOP grassroots organizations and candidates to express their concerns about the party’s problems. This week, Newsome wrote a message to Don Tracy, chairman of the state party, and asked him to step aside. “You totally lost the respect and trust of the Illinois grassroots Republicans throughout the state,” Newsome said. Tracy did not return an emailed message for comment.)

FROM ILLINOIS CENTER-RIGHT LEANING SOURCES

GOPUSA ILLINOIS
— Today, the Illinois Republican Party (IRP) is holding an event at the Holiday Inn in Edwardsville. The IRP has invited leaders of conservative organizations and candidates to express their concerns about the IRP’s problems.” Of course, the IRP has not invited me because I am no longer the chairman of TAPROOT Republicans of Illinois and because I am no longer a member of the Steering Committee of the Illinois Center Right Coalition (ICRC). Needless-to-say, the IRP should publish a) a list of those who it invited and the organizations that they lead, b) a list of those who attended, and c) a summary, if not a transcript, of what they said. Who leads conservative organizations in Illinois, in your county, in your township, and in your municipality? I should write a book about a) those who ended my TAPROOT chairmanship in 2012 and destroyed TAPROOT in 2012 and b) those who ended my ICRC Steering Committee membership and destroyed ICRC in 2007. I would focus on those who continue to take adverse actions against me including a) almost stopping me from reporting on the recent DeSantis event in Elmhurst, b) ending my service as the Republican fundraiser for Wheaton Independence Day parades and fireworks in 2021, c) ending my bid to be appointed to fill the Wheaton City Council West District vacancy in 2019, and d) gerrymandering my precinct in 2015. – Dave Diersen

GOPUSA ILLINOIS
— Political parties exist to help elect candidates who can and will defend and advance their platform. The Republican Party platform is conservative. Ever-increasingly hate-filled conservative-hating conservative-haters use the Republican Party’s “BIG TENT” policy to drive conservatives like me out of the Republican Party and to destroy the Republican Party. I should write a book about that. I would focus on hate-filled conservative-hating leaders of the Illinois Republican Party, DuPage County Republican Central Committee, and Milton Township Republican Organization since 2000. I would focus on those who have taken the most/biggest adverse actions against me. I would focus on those who most obviously reject the individual responsibility, traditional marriage/family, right to life, immigration, illegal drugs, Second Amendment, and/or equal opportunity (no race or gender based preference giving) planks in the Republican Party platform. – Dave Diersen

— In your county, in your township, and in your municipality, how successful have Democrats, Libertarians, Greens, Independents, and RINOs been in selling their “cheap labor” argument to promote mass/illegal immigration? Were you cheap labor? According to my critics/opponents, not only was I never “cheap labor,’ I was grossly overpaid. I did yard work 1962-1964. I delivered newspapers 1962-1966. I washed dishes for the minimum wage 1964-1966. I cleaned golf shoes, chipped slag, and pumped gasoline in 1966. I delivered mail 1966-1969. In support of their argument, my critics/opponents stress that I made enough money a) to buy a 1958 Chevrolet Bel Air in 1964, b) to buy a new 1966 Pontiac Tempest Sprint in 1966, c) to pay for my UIC expenses 1966-1968, d) to buy a new 1968 Oldsmobile 442 in 1967, e) to buy a new 1969 Dodge Charger SE in 1968, f) to pay for my NIU expenses 1969-1970, and g) to graduate debt-free from NIU in 1970 with a bachelor’s degree in management and owning that Charger. – Dave Diersen

GOPUSA ILLINOIS
— QUESTION: What could have slowed down if not stopped the Democrat invasion, infiltration, infestation, conquering, and inevitable destruction of DuPage County, Milton Township, and Wheaton? ANSWER: Abuse of the Republican Party’s “Big Tent” policy. Far too many leaders of the DuPage County Republican Central Committee and the nine DuPage County Republican township party organizations have failed/refused to defend or advance the Republican Party platform. Far too many have painted themselves as being “Democrat Lite.” Far too many talk and/or act like they were/are Democrat plants, Libertarian plants, Green plants, Independent plants, or RINOs. Far too many of them have been/are anti-conservative if not conservative-haters. Far too many of them reject the individual responsibility, traditional marriage/family, right to life, immigration, illegal drugs, Second Amendment, and/or equal opportunity (no race or gender based preference giving) planks in the Republican Party platform. Far too many of them destroy those like me a) who refuse to be manipulated or dominated by them, 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 wrongdoing, and/or f) who refuse to give them money. I should write a book about them. I would focus on those who have taken the most/biggest adverse actions against me. I have been the DuPage County Milton Township Precinct 9 Republican Committeeman since 1999. In 2004, the Milton Township Republican Organization (MTRO) rudely fired me as its webmaster and rudely ended my bid to serve as its Treasurer. In 2010, MTRO again rudely fired me as its webmaster. MTRO leaders have publicly insulted me at MTRO events. MTRO leaders have frequently hinted/implied/argued/shouted that what I have done as a precinct committeeman since 1999 and as the GOPUSA Illinois Editor since 2000 and what I did as the following caused Republican candidates on ballots in my precinct to lose elections a) the MTRO webmaster 2000-2004 and 2008-2010, b) an Illinois Center Right Coalition Steering Committee member 2003-2007, c) the TAPROOT Republicans of Illinois chairman 2005-2012, d) the Republican fundraiser for Wheaton Independence Day parades and fireworks 2005-2019, and e) as an Illinois Republican Party State Convention Platform and Resolutions Committee member in 2008 has. – Dave Diersen

— Democrats say “Fox News anchor fires back at guest for calling her far right’ Harris Faulkner clearly took issue with being labelled far right, firing back that she is actually a journalist.” According to my critics/opponents, one cannot be both conservative and a journalist, and therefore, because I am conservative, I am not a journalist. I should write a book about my critics/opponents who have hinted/implied/argued/shouted the loudest since 2000 that I am not a journalist. I would focus on those who have taken the most/biggest adverse actions against me since 2000. I would focus on those who have/had lots of religious, government, political, and/or financial clout in Illinois, DuPage County, Milton Township, and/or Wheaton. I would focus on those who are/were a) leaders of the Illinois Republican Party, DuPage County Republican Central Committee, and Milton Township Republican Organization, b) Republican leaders of Illinois, DuPage County, Milton Township, and Wheaton, c) Republican candidates on ballots in my precinct and their political consultants, major donors, fundraisers, pollsters, campaign managers, campaign staff members, and campaign volunteers, d) conservative leaders, and e) religious leaders.
https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/americas/us-politics/fox-news-harris-faulkner-far-right-b2329032.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Ms. Tims responded by saying that “you guys on the far right” are instead hoping for Florida Governor Ron DeSantis as the Republican nominee. “I know you guys on the far right really want Ron DeSantis to be the nominee but I don’t think he has the charisma or personality to beat out the entertainer-in-chief,” she said. Ms. Faulkner clearly took issue with being labelled “far right”, firing back that she is actually “a journalist”. “I don’t know who you are talking to in terms of ‘you guys,’ I know that that wasn’t meant for me,” she said, speaking over Ms. Tims. “I’m a journalist!” Ms. Tims appeared to ignore the anchor’s response, prompting Ms. Faulkner to reiterate what she said during a lull in the discussion. “So, and hopefully, yeah, OK, I’m sure you heard what I said,” she said.)

INTERCEPT

Better yet, I should sue them. I would focus on those who have taken the most/biggest adverse actions against me since 2000.

— Democrats say that “Chicago Mayor-elect Brandon Johnson pledges to ‘invest in our young people’ at Austin church event.” Who invested in you? My outstanding parents invested in me a) by having me baptized as a Missouri Synod Lutheran (MSL) in 1948, b) by sending me to Trinity Lutheran Grade School in Crete 1953-1961, c) by sending me to Hope Lutheran Grade School in Park Forest 1961-1962 to stay with the Missouri Synod, and d) by having me confirmed as a MSL in 1962.

I cleaned golf shoes, chipped slag, and pumped gasoline in 1966. I delivered mail in 1967, 1968, and 1969.

My female Crete-Monee High School classmates did not see me as being “college material.” I could not run because I had a bone disease. My eyesight could not be corrected to 20/20. I had partial red/green color blindness. During my junior and senior years, and the summer in between, I washed dishes for the minimum wage in the basement of the S.S. Kresge in Chicago Heights. In my defense, I took college preparatory courses, I graduated in the upper 20% of my class, my ACT score was 24, I got accepted by UIC, and with the money that I earned washing dishes, I bought a new 1966 Pontiac Tempest Sprint in May of 1966.

— Democrats say “Voluntary childlessness has become a topic of debate.” Government is nasty/vicious. Politics is nasty/vicious. Democrats are nasty/vicious. My Democrat GAO superiors, supervisors, coworkers, and subordinates not only viciously demonized me, denigrated me, and condemned me because my wife and I gave up trying to have children, because we did not adopt, and because we did not become foster parents, they a) hinted/implied/argued/shouted that I lied about our efforts to have children and b) severely punished me for that. In 1989, to punish me, they threw me off audits of IRS, gave me an adverse job assignment, gave me unfair performance expectations, turned my subordinates against me, gave me an unfair performance appraisal, and ranked me at the bottom of my coworkers for pay-for-performance purposes. They hinted/implied/argued/shouted that if my wife and I had children, a) I would not have been able to pass the CPA examination on my first attempt in 1979, earn a master’s degree in accounting from DePaul in 1980, pass the Certified Internal Auditor examination on my first attempt in 1981, become a licensed CPA in 1981, or get promoted in 1986 and b) my wife and I would not have been able to have a house built in Wheaton in 1984, my wife would not have been able to earn a bachelor’s degree in finance from DePaul in 1986, and I would not have been able to buy a 1962 Impala SS collector car in 1989. I should write a book about the aforesaid. Better yet, I should sue my Democrat GAO superiors, supervisors, coworkers, and subordinates. I would focus on those who had children and/or had spouses who had little or no income and who blamed that for all their problems.

Nancy Mace, R-S.C., who has emerged as one of few House Republicans urging her colleagues to find a more moderate stance on abortion, warned that Republicans will “lose huge” in 2024 if states keep passing restrictive abortion bans.” What if the Republican Party platform was amended to simply say that it opposes the promotion of abortion?

— Democrats say “As US job market cools, starting salaries are dropping in some sectors.” According to my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes, the federal government always grossly overpaid me. In today’s dollars, a) my starting Post Office salary was $18.05/hour in 1966 and my ending salary was $19.25/hour in 1969, b) my starting IRS salary was $52,022/year in 1971 and my ending salary was $104,583/year in 1980, and c) my starting GAO salary was $82,720/year in 1980 and my ending salary was $142,650/year in 1997. In my defense, I earned a) job-related college degrees in 1970, 1976, 1980, and 1997, b) job-related professional certifications in 1979, 1981, 1990, 1994, 1996, and 1997, and c) a job-related professional license in 1981.

While I served as the chairman of TAPROOT Republicans of Illinois 2005-2012, I recruited many speakers for TAPROOT monthly meetings, annual picnic, and Christmas party. Of course, my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes a) viciously demonized, denigrated, and condemned those who accepted my invitations and b) hinted/implied/argued/shouted at them that that their speaking at TAPROOT events caused them to lose elections.

I passed the CPA examination and the Certified Internal Auditor examination on my first attempt. I became a licensed CPA. I have master’s degrees in business, accounting, and finance. I worked for GAO for almost 18 years, the last 11 years of which at the GS-13 Step-1-10 Levels, currently $109,732-$142,650/year. I worked for IRS for almost 9 years, the last 5 1/2 years of which at the GS-12 Step 1-5 Levels, currently $92,279-$104,583/year. I served on the Executive Committee of the Association of Government Accountants Chicago Chapter for 13 years. Consequently, because of the aforesaid, my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes have done everything that they could to crush me.

— Republican Puchalski donates to Conroy (COMMENT: Your political donations say more about you than anything that you can say about yourself.)
https://dupagepolicyjournal.com/stories/641713218-republican-puchalski-donates-to-conroy
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Republican Donald Puchalski donated $500 to progressive Democratic DuPage County Board Chair Deb Conroy. Puchalski, of Addison, was a DuPage County Board member but lost in the fall 2022 election as an incumbent. He previously held a 1st District seat. The 68-year-old attorney had been a member of the DuPage County Board since 2005 when he was appointed to the public body. When running for re-election to the slot in 2022 he called for a need “to be conservative in spending” and suggested DuPage County keep “partisan politics off the board floor.” Puchalski’s former seat was from a traditionally conservative area of the county and included includes Bensenville, Wood Dale and parts of Elmhurst and Bloomingdale. His law firm, the Law Offices of Donald E. Puchalski focuses on immigration issues and domestic relations. He was previously a trustee for Addison Township, a member of the Addison Police Pension Board and a Republican precinct committeeman. “I think every government has to live within their means, and I think DuPage government has been very fiscally responsible and proactive,” Puchalski said when first appointed to the board in 2005. Puchalski and current GOP DuPage County Board member Sam Tornatore both donated to Conroy’s campaign at the same time after receiving financial support from GOP township organizations in Addison.)

BIZ PAC REVIEW
— Anheuser-Busch accused of racist, discriminatory hiring policies under the ‘cloak of equity’ – Chris Donaldson (COMMENT: Democrat and RINO employers ever-increasingly use Affirmative Action, Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion to not hire Republicans and to get rid of their employees who are Republican.)
https://www.bizpacreview.com/2023/04/18/anheuser-busch-accused-of-racist-discriminatory-hiring-policies-under-the-cloak-of-equity-1350992/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The maker of Budweiser and Bud Light as well as a slew of other liquid libations is being sued by a conservative legal group over a program that ostensibly promotes diversity in hiring in terms of women and minorities but is discriminatory toward white and Asian Americans in pursuit of equity, a racially exclusionary ideology that is pervasive in modern day Corporate America. In the federal civil rights complaint filed by America First Legal, which was founded by former Trump adviser Stephen Miller, the group requests that “the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) open a civil rights investigation of Anheuser-Busch’s systemic and discriminatory hiring, promotion, and job-training employment practices,” according to a news release posted on its website. “Under the cloak of ‘equity,’ woke companies like Anheuser-Busch proudly discriminate based on race, color, national origin, and sex in their employment practices,” the statement reads. “For example, Anheuser-Busch created a Leadership Accelerator Program that provides ‘formal mentorship, executive interaction, and leadership development curriculum for those who identify with historically underrepresented groups as they join our organization in a full-time capacity.’ Only specific individuals of specified races, colors, and national origins – notably excluding White and Asian Americans – are invited to apply.”)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: Thus far, the tragic shooting in Dadeville appears to not involve an “angry white man,” which the left is quick to blame for mass shootings, though as I’ve reported, this is not the norm. We can expect the usual responses from the libs that guns, not criminals who use them to kill, are bad. The left will call for the end of “gun violence” even as big, blue cities refuse to punish the people causing so much chaos. It’s all a ruse to take your guns. Leftists will gladly sacrifice thousands of lives to disarm We the People.)

— Democrats say “Alarming rise in youth gun deaths breaks down very differently by race” and “A closer look at the numbers reveals even more alarming trends, especially among young African Americans.” What percent of African Americans are killed by African Americans?
https://www.nbcnews.com/meet-the-press/data-download/alarming-rise-youth-gun-deaths-breaks-differently-race-rcna79916
(FROM THE ARTICLE: And even more remarkable than the jump in gun deaths was the racial breakdown. In the 2021 data, the Pew Research Center found that Black children were hit much harder than other young people. Among African American children, the rate of gun deaths per 100,000 people was 11.8. That was more than five times the figure for other racial and ethnic groups. For white children and Hispanics, the figure was 2.3 per 100,000, and for Asian children, it was even lower, at 0.9. The difference in the 2021 numbers suggests a very different problem and challenge among Black children, which is confirmed when look at what drove gun deaths by race. For Black youths, the numbers were driven, heavily, by homicides. Among young African Americans, more than 8 in 10 gun deaths were homicides, while fewer than 10% were suicides. The numbers were flipped for white youths. Two-thirds of all gun deaths among that group were suicides, while fewer than a quarter were homicides. Such numbers may help explain why different lawmakers see the gun problem so differently.)

When I transferred from IRS to GAO in 1980 when I was 31 years old, my Democrat GAO superiors, supervisors, coworkers, and subordinates did not want me to transfer, but failing that, they wanted me to transfer as a GS-4 (currently $37,537/year) intern, that is, to suffer a $67,046/year (64%) pay cut in today’s dollars. They painted what GAO Analysts do as being a unique “trade or occupation.” They would not have done that if I had been a Democrat, minority, female, or veteran. They viciously demonized, denigrated, and condemned the fact a) that I had worked for IRS as a Revenue Officer for almost 9 years, the last 5 1/2 years of which at the GS-12 Step 1-5 levels, currently $92,279-$104,583/year, b) that much of what IRS Revenue Officers do is similar to what GAO Analysts do, c) that I had passed the CPA examination on my first attempt in 1979, d) that I had earned an MBA from Loyola in 1976, and e) that I had almost completed the requirements for a master’s degree in accounting from DePaul. They were furious a) that I suffered a pay cut of only $21,863/year (21%) in today’s dollars to transfer and b) that I transferred with me almost 12 years of federal seniority, 30 days of unused vacation days, and 130 unused sick days.)

I had passed the CPA examination on my first attempt in 1979. I had worked for IRS for more than 9 years, the last 5 1/2 years of which at the GS-12 Step 1-5 Levels, currently $92,279-$104,583/yr. I had earned a master’s degree in accounting from DePaul in 1980. I had worked for GAO for 1 year. And I had passed the Certified Internal Auditor (CIA) examination on my first attempt in 1981. My Democrat GAO superiors were furious. None of my Democrat coworkers who were minority, female, and/or younger who they wanted to promote over me had anywhere near as many qualifications. So, to justify their not promoting me, a) they kept me off audits of IRS, b) they gave me bad job assignments, unfair performance expectations, and unfair performance appraisals, c) they turned my superiors, supervisors, coworkers, and subordinates against me, d) they assigned me to supervise their most problematic employees, and e) they wasted, ignored, dismissed, belittled, demonized, denigrated, and condemned what I had learned earning an MBA, passing the CPA examination, working for IRS, earning a master’s degree in accounting, working for GAO, and passing the CIA examination. I should write a book about the aforesaid.)

DUPAGE COUNTY
— Democrats say “DuPage County Seeks Resident Input on Proposed Precinct Maps.” How do these proposed changes impact your Republican Precinct Committeeman? I have been the Republican Milton Township Precinct 9 Committeeman since 1999. The new proposed precinct map puts me into a new Precinct 19. It has 1,033 registered voters while my current Precinct 9 has 497. The new eastern borders are Warrenville Road, Plamondon Road, and the Chicago Golf Club. The northern border remains Roosevelt Road. The new western borders are Crest Street, Aurora Way, Foothill Drive, and Orchard Road. The new southern borders are Weisbrook Road and Flint Creek Road. The new Precinct 19 a) takes away my voters east of Warrenville Road who were added to my Precinct 9 in 2015, b) gives back the voters west of the Prairie Path who were taken away in 2015, and c) adds voters from the current Precincts 85 (Sarah Stark) and 130 (Elizabeth Tatro). In 2015, I lost the relationships that I had built since 1999 with about 250 voters west of the Prairie Path. With this proposal, I would lose the relationships that I had built since 2015 with about 250 voters east of Warrenville Road.

https://www.illinoisreview.com/illinoisreview/2023/04/opinion-the-one-issue-that-cannot-even-be-discussed.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: For it to have been an honest election – for Joe Biden to have really beaten Donald Trump 81 million to 74 million – the national participation number would have had to increase by over 22 million legitimate voters between 2016 and 2020. That’s their claim – that about 158.5 million people voted for president in 2020, even though only about 136.6 million are recorded as having voted in 2016, and 2016 was already a high. There is always a sway of a few million in the total from cycle to cycle. Sometimes it goes down a bit, sometimes it goes up a bit. The prior four presidential elections had seen 122 million, 131 million, 129 million, and then 136 million in 2016. But the total participation necessary for Joe Biden to have gotten 81 million votes in 2020 (when Donald Trump got 74 million) is 158.5 million (once you count the many votes for third parties and write-ins). And that is absolutely, statistically impossible.)

AMAC
— We’re Failing Our Boys and Young Men – Jeff Szymanski (COMMENT: In your school district, how far are boys behind girls at each grade level? Why is that? I was born in 1948. If I had been born later, because of my terrible demographics (White, male, Protestant, 100% German American, and my ancestors have been in America since 1844), and because of Affirmative Action, Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion, that is, because of political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, and age discrimination, I doubt that would have found the motivation to take college preparatory courses in high school, pass the postal employment examination, graduate in the upper 20% of my class, get an ACT score of 24, work my way through college, pass the Federal Service Entrance examination, earn an MBA, pass the CPA examination, pass the Certified Internal Auditor examination, become a licensed CPA, etc.)
https://amac.us/were-failing-our-boys-and-young-men/
(FROM THE ARTICE: Facts. Girls are half a grade level or better above boys in all 50 states. Seven in 10 high school valedictorians are girls. College graduates are soon to be 2:1 women to men. Women with a college degree do not like to marry men without one. Single women are far more likely to own their own home, and they are far less likely to commit suicide. If you’re a young male in America today, particularly one without any higher education or job training, the statistics are increasingly grim. I reside in Central Florida. Retirement communities are numerous but no major colleges within an hour’s drive. Low wage service sector work, construction, and landscaping are the primary options for young men. COVID lockdowns and paying people not to work encouraged sloth nationwide. Some men never went back to gainful employment. There’s a growing population “unemployable” to a company and “unviable” to a partner. An arrest record. Tattoos on the face. A lack of meaningful work history. Too many young men are permanently closing doors to success. Small wonder that crime and drugs fill the void. There’s scarcely a traffic stop in the area where methamphetamine is not found in the vehicle. And the triple homicide by three male teenagers that made headlines last week took place just miles from here. But we’ve heard for decades and continue hearing that men have all the advantages. Who would dare utter that young men are in crisis? Who would further dare take up the cause to do something about it given how The Left might react?)

ILLINOIS REVIEW
— IL GOP Leaders Threatening to Sue Illinois Review, Silence Leading Conservative News Publication in Blatant Attack on Freedom of the Press (COMMENT: I should write a book about all the efforts since 2000 a) to stop me from putting together and sending out GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters and b) to stop everyone from reading those newsletters.)
https://www.illinoisreview.com/illinoisreview/2023/04/sources-il-gop-leaders-threatening-to-sue-illinois-review-silence-leading-conservative-news-publication-in-blatant-attack-on-freedom-of-the-press.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: And just recently, senior – and former IL GOP officials have sent representatives to try and intimidate the editor-in-chief and publisher of this publication – and threatening them with lawsuits in an attempt to silence and stop Illinois Review from publishing any more stories critical of the Republican Party of Illinois and its leaders – in a blatant and deliberate attack on First Amendment rights – and more specifically, Freedom of the Press. Censoring media outlets is typical in third world countries ruled by dictators – but for Republican Party of Illinois leaders to want to censor the leading conservative news publication in Illinois because they are bothered by the facts is both sad and alarming. Think about that – Republican leaders wanting to censure and silence a conservative Republican news publication. Only in Illinois. But sometimes, the truth hurts. Is it not a fact that IL GOP chair Don Tracy’s company, Dot Foods, where he is an owner, donated to presidential candidate Joe Biden in 2020? Is it not a fact that in 2002, Don Tracy ran in the Illinois primary for the 50th State Senate District as a Democrat? Is it not a fact that on September 4, 2020 – just months before his election as chair of the Illinois Republican Party, Tracy made a personal donation to Citizens for Judge Emily Sutton – a Democrat running for Circuit Court Judge in the 9th Judicial Circuit of Illinois? Is it not a fact that IL GOP national committeeman Richard Porter’s law firm, Kirkland & Ellis, where he is a senior partner, donated to Joe Biden and Kamala Harris in 2020, during the height of the pandemic and lockdowns? Is it not a fact that Kirkland & Ellis also represents Pritzker family interests, including Pritzker Private Capital? Is it not a fact that the Republican Party of Illinois weaponized their postage discount to attack conservative candidates during the primary? It’s okay for the IL GOP to send out, and pay for mailers that are full of lies and deliberately deceive Republican voters – even photoshopping pictures of Gov. JB Pritzker and disgraced former Democratic House Speaker Mike Madigan alongside conservative Republican candidates, to trick voters into thinking that they are not real Republicans – but it’s not okay for this publication to publish stories backed by evidence and facts. What a strange world. In exclusive audio obtained by Illinois Review, Tracy, during a meeting with conservative leaders last July, admits that the Richard Irvin campaign for governor was allowed to use the IL GOP postage discount for mailers – a perk not afforded to other gubernatorial candidates during the primary. Tracy acknowledges the Irvin campaign’s use of the postage discount in the recording, but says the IL GOP was taking its “direction from the Senate Caucus and the House Caucus” – meaning he was re-directing the responsibility for that decision to then-Senate Republican leader Dan McConchie and then-House Republican leader Jim Durkin – the leaders of the Senate and House Caucuses. And Illinois Review is releasing, for the very first time, a portion of that exclusive audio where Tracy shifts the blame to Durkin and McConchie for deciding who had usage of the postage discount, stating, “And that goes, we take direction from the Senate Caucus and the House Caucus.” In exclusive audio obtained by Illinois Review, IL GOP chair Don Tracy blames Durkin and McConchie for the Irvin campaign’s usage of the postage discount, saying the IL GOP took direction from “the Senate and the House Caucus.” Is it not a fact that Durkin lost seats in the House when he was Minority leader during the November election? Is it not a fact that Durkin voted with the Democrats to ban assault weapons? Is it not a fact that Durkin’s Western Springs home is up for sale? Is it not a fact that the chair of the IL GOP Finance Committee, Vince Kolber, votes in Wisconsin and Illinois? Is it not a fact that Orland Park Mayor Keith Pekau, who is a close ally of the IL GOP leadership, harassed and intimidated female Fire District candidates, and then followed them in his car? Is it not a fact that Pekau routinely attacks and harasses constituents online? Is it not a fact that Pekau honored progressive, liberal Democrat and former US Rep. Marie Newman and awarded her with a Community Appreciation Award? Is it not a fact that Pekau rewards top campaign donors with city contracts? And while IL GOP officials are obsessed with wanting to sue Illinois Review and silence this publication, they remain silent on matters where a lawsuit would have been helpful. For example, Illinois Republican US Senate candidate Kathy Salvi’s name was left off the ballot in one county, and when local officials tried to fix the problem, Salvi responded by stating that their efforts did not “solve the most pressing problem of election integrity and transparency.” Salvi went on to say that voters have “been potentially disenfranchised” because of the mistake. And where was the IL GOP with their lawsuit? They were silent. Illinois Review recently learned that when a local Republican leader raised the alarm about a Democratic-controlled county clerk’s office playing games with assigning Republicans to serve as election judges, Tracy and IL GOP officials had a simple message for this concerned, local Republican leader who was desperate for some help and guidance: “Sorry, but we can’t help you.” This is deliberate election interference – and where was the IL GOP with their lawsuit? They were silent. And when Gov. Pritzker signed an unconstitutional assault weapons ban, where was the IL GOP with their lawsuit? They were silent. When Gov. Pritzker abused his executive powers and shut down schools and businesses, and forced children to wear masks, where was the IL GOP with their lawsuit? They were silent. When Gov. Pritzker extended his “supreme executive power” for the 40th time, declaring that the State of Illinois is still a disaster area from the effects of the pandemic – in a blatant abuse of power, where was the IL GOP with their lawsuit? They were silent. But now, when this publication shines light on the many problems with party leadership—this is what motivates them to run to the court and sue? If IL GOP leaders follow through on their threats and sue this publication, they’ll join the ranks of Russia, China and Iran. And here at home they’ll join the ranks of Twitter, before Elon Musk, Facebook, YouTube and allies of the Democratic Party – who routinely censor conservative voices. If there was ever a time to file a lawsuit – it would be against the Republican Party of Illinois for dereliction of duty. It’s no wonder why Republicans always lose in Illinois – their leaders are more concerned about taking out conservative Republicans and conservative news publications than they are about defeating Democrats and winning elections. “Silence conservative voices, but leave the Democrats alone” is the new motto of the Republican Party of Illinois.)

— Democrats say “Clarence Thomas’ lax ethics are a blow to the Supreme Court, and America.” Republicans should always keep in mind a) that Democrats ever-increasingly run America and b) that Democrats use everything that you do or that you do not do against you. That is especially true for Republicans who are heterosexual, conservative, White, male, older, non-poor, non-veteran, married, Protestant, German American, and/or have ancestors who have been in America for a long time. If you are a Republican, what have Democrats used against you the most? For me, it was a) my avoiding the Viet Nam War draft, b) my complaining about political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, and age discrimination, and c) my becoming an active member in a class action lawsuit in 1988 when I was 40 years old that charged them with reverse discrimination, age discrimination, and retaliation.

DEPAULIA
— Democrats say “Youth voter turnout secures Johnson’s spot as mayor-elect.” Democrats ever-increasing crow about their success in getting young people to blame Republicans for their problems. What problems did you have when you were young? I could not run, my eyesight could not be corrected to 20/20, and I had partial red/green color blindness. My parents did not have enough money to buy me a car or to send me to college. My GPA and ACT score were not that great. I refused to become a Democrat and my superiors in the federal government were always under tremendous pressure to hire, retain, and promote Democrats who were minority and/or female. The Viet Nam War made those who shared my demographics and who avoided the draft or who did not avoid the draft very unpopular. My Democrat Park Forest Post Office superiors forced me to resign in 1969. My father died suddenly in 1969 when he was 47 and I was 21. The only job that I was offered after I earned a bachelor’s degree in management from NIU in 1970, Retail Sales Manager for the Chicago Heights Firestone store, did not really require a college degree and my advancement opportunities were very bleak. My Firestone store boss rudely fired me in early 1971 when I gave him my 2-week notice that I had accepted a job offer from Oldsmobile. Oldsmobile then withdrew that job offer saying that it had just agreed to stop hiring Whites to settle an EEOC complaint. Because of the aforesaid, my employment opportunities were even more bleak and I accepted a job offer from IRS. My Democrat IRS superiors disallowed my travel vouchers in 1974 and disallowed my education deductions in 1978. In 1980, GAO forced me to take a $21,863/year (21%) pay cut in today’s dollars to transfer from IRS to GAO. To get rid of me because I complained about political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, and age discrimination, they took many adverse actions against me.

CHICAGO TRIBUNE
— FRONT PAGE TOP OF FOLD: The Democrats who run public education in Illinois say “School board elections see general pushback against conservatives.” For one of three Wheaton Warrenville School District 200 4-year term offices, Amy Erkenswick’s lead over Erik Hjerpe is now only 3 votes – 6,647 to 6,644. David Sohmer got 6,259 votes and Spencer Garett got 6,115 votes. In my precinct, Erkenswick and Sohmer each got 53 votes, Garrett got 45 votes, while Hjerpe got 108 votes, Dave Long got 126 votes, and Julie Kulovits got 142 votes. Of course, if Erkenswick loses to Hjerpe, my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes will blame that on me and on my GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters. In my defense, there are lots of factors. Breakthrough Ideas headquarters, Wheaton Warrenville School District 200 headquarters, a middle school, and a grade school are all in my precinct. Also, LGBTQ-promoting churches are immediately north and south of my precinct. Also, in my opinion, Democrat realtors have been steering Democrats into my precinct for many decades. In my precinct, 204 of its 490 (42%) registered voters voted. But Democrat candidates got about two votes for every one vote that Republican candidates got.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: In west suburban Wheaton, unofficial results showed voters largely rejected three of four members of a slate backed by Awake Illinois and Jeanne Ives, a conservative former state representative. But as of Thursday, slate member Amanda “Amy” Erkenswick, who attended an Awake Illinois candidate training and has been a repeat guest on WIND talk shows, held a narrow three-vote lead over Erik Hjerpe, who was among a group of candidates endorsed by the local teachers union, for the third of three available four-year seats on the board of Community Unit School District 200. Once all the ballots are counted, “I hope we can focus on the real issues in our district,” said Julie Kulovits (who got 8,310 votes), who was also backed by the teachers union.)

SUBURBAN LIFE
— DIERSEN ELECTION UPDATE: For Wheaton Warrenville School District 200 4-year term, Erkenswick’s lead over Hjerpe is now only 3 votes – 6,647 to 6,644. Erkenswick got only 53 votes in my precinct, while Hjerpe got 108. Of course, if Erkenswick loses, my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes will blame that on me and on my GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters. In my defense, Breakthrough Ideas headquarters, Wheaton Warrenville School District 200 headquarters, a middle school, and a grade school are in my precinct. Also, LGBTQ-promoting churches are immediately north and south of my precinct. Also, in my opinion, Democrat realtors have been steering Democrats into my precinct for many decades.

They would stress that my parents a) had me baptized as a Missouri Synod Lutheran (MSL) in 1948, b) sent me to Trinity Lutheran Grade School in Crete 1953-1961, c) sent me to Hope Lutheran Grade School in Park Forest 1961-1962 to stay with the Missouri Synod, and d) had me confirmed as a MSL in 1962.

CHICAGO PATCH
— Democrats say “What It’s Like To Retire In Illinois Compared To Other States.” If you are retired, what factors keep you in Illinois? For me, they include a) I have lived in Illinois since 1948 and my ancestors have lived in Illinois since 1844, b) I have been the GOPUSA Illinois Editor since 2000, and c) Illinois does not tax retirement income. If you are retired, what factors keep you in your municipality? For me, they include a) the relative safety and prosperity in Wheaton, Milton Township, and DuPage County, b) Wheaton’s proximity to Central DuPage Hospital, c) selling pot and video gambling are not legal in Wheaton, d) I have been the Republican Precinct Committeeman for my precinct since 1999, e) my wife’s brother, one of his daughters, and their three children live in Naperville, f) we own the smallest unit in Iron Gate Motor Condos ( https://www.irongatemotorcondos.com/ ) in Naperville, g) we have lived in Wheaton since 1978 and in our home since 1984, h) we had our home built in 1984 and we have spent lots of time and money on maintenance, improvements, and upgrades, i) we are next to the Illinois Prairie Path, and j) three fast food restaurants are in walking distance of our home. Factors that encourage me to leave Illinois include a) Illinois, DuPage County, DuPage County’s 4th District, Milton Township, Wheaton, Wheaton’s West District, and my precinct are ever-increasingly moving to the left as Democrats invade, that is, they are becoming more and more and more anti-religious, anti-conservative, and anti-Republican, b) fewer and fewer and fewer of my neighbors are Republicans, c) when Republican homes are sold in my precinct, by my estimate, 4 out of 5 times, Democrats buy them, d) the cost of living and real estate taxes are high, e) my critics/opponents in my precinct almost succeeded in rudely stopping me from reporting on the February 20, 2023 DeSantis event in Elmhurst, f) no one in Wheaton, Milton Township, or DuPage County came to my defense when my critics/opponents rudely stopped me from serving as the Republican fundraiser for Wheaton Independence Day parades and fireworks, and g) ever-increasingly, those who have lots of religious, government, political, and/or financial clout in Wheaton, in Milton Township, and DuPage County blame me and blame my GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters for their problems, for your problems, for my problems, and for everyone’s problems.
https://patch.com/illinois/chicago/what-its-retire-illinois-compared-other-states
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Deciding where to live in retirement is one of the most important decisions many retirees in the United States need to make. While some may want to stay close to family and friends, others may prioritize affordable housing, a reasonable cost of living, and a low tax rate to maximize retirement income. Safety, access to health care, and climate are also big factors. Using data from financial services company and personal finance website Bankrate, 24/7 Wall St. reviewed the best and worst states to retire. Bankrate analyzed multiple data points and assigned a weight to each category: affordability (40%), well-being (20%), culture and diversity (15%), weather (15%), and crime (10%). According to the report, Illinois ranks as the 16th best place to retire among the 50 states. The state ranks 13th best in well-being, its best performing category. This category takes multiple measures into account, including access to health care, access to food, and economic security. Illinois’ worst performing category is culture and diversity. In this category, which takes into account venues for arts, entertainment, and recreation as well as the population’s racial and ethnic diversity, Illinois ranks 20th worst in the country. Of the 12,716,164 people who reside in Illinois, 15.7% are 65 or older, the 12th smallest share among states, according to five-year estimates from the U.S. Census Bureau’s 2020 American Community Survey.)
