Sangamon County GOP chair Dianne Barghouti Hartwick said so far more than 900 people have purchased the $125 tickets to eat at the dinner, scheduled for 6 p.m. May 3 at the Bank of Springfield Center. “We think we will have more than 1,000 people attend,” said Mark Hurley, who chaired the GOP committee that selected Conway.” Who has/will the chairman of your Republican county party organization recruited to speak at your Lincoln Day dinner? 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 should write a book about the aforesaid.

SPRINGFIELD STATE JOURNAL
— Democrats say “Every vote counts: Two candidates eke out one-vote wins in county election finale.” For Wheaton Warrenville District 200 School Board, Amy Erkenswick is losing to Erick Hjerpe by 33 votes. The school district headquarters, a middle school, and a grade school are all in my precinct. Hjerpe got 108 votes in my precinct while Erkenswick got only 54. Of course, my critics/opponents will hint/imply/argue/shout that if they, or if one of their operatives or dupes had been the Republican Precinct Committeeman, Erkenswick would have won.

— Democrats who run GAO say that the federal government wastes $247 billion tax dollars annually. GAO wasted my career and forced me to take their early retirement “offer” in 1997 when I was 49 years old. GAO audits IRS. They wasted what I had learned working for GAO for almost 18 years and for IRS for almost 9 years before that. They wasted what I had learned passing the Certified Internal Auditor examination in 1981 and the CPA examination in 1979. They wasted what I had learned earning a master’s degree in financial markets and trading from IIT in 1997, a master’s degree in accounting from DePaul in 1980, and an MBA from Loyola in 1976.

DUPAGE POLICY JOURNAL
— 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.)

— 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.”)

— Can We Do Anything About America’s Decline? The remedies are agreed upon, but the needed medicine is feared more than the disease. Because today, the government is the cause of our many crises. – Victor Davis Hanson (COMMENT: My outstanding parents did not have enough money to send me to college. Neither of them attended college. My father was the first of my ancestors to earn a high school diploma. My mother never attended high school. While I was able to take college preparatory courses, to get an ACT score of 24, to get accepted by UIC, to work my way through college, and to earn a bachelor’s degree in management from NIU in 1970, my GPA suffered.)
https://amgreatness.com/2023/04/16/can-we-do-anything-about-americas-decline/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Race is no longer an accurate barometer of either victimhood or legitimate grievance. If “affirmative” action were to continue, it should be based entirely on class considerations, not the current system of Elizabeth Warrenesque fakery or delusions that the elite children of Eric Holder, the Obamas, the Duchess of Sussex, or LeBron James are in some need of compensatory privilege for college admissions, appointments, or hiring.)

(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.)

NBC NEWS
— 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.)

My critics/opponents a) argue that IRP, DCRCC, and MTRO should have the power to do the aforesaid because I am a Republican Precinct Committeeman (RPC), b) argue that MTRO made a big mistake when it appointed me as a RPC in 1999, and c) argue that MTRO would never have appointed me as a RPC since then.

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.)

ALTON TELEGRAPH
— Democrats say “Lawmakers want review of teacher licensing standards.” (COMMENT: I became a licensed CPA in 1981 when I was 32 years old. I had earned an MBA from Loyola in 1976. 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.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: The test is known as the Teacher Performance Assessment, or “edTPA,” and it is intended to determine whether a prospective teacher has the knowledge and skills necessary to be effective in the classroom. It has been a requirement for teacher licensing in Illinois since 2015.)

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.

ILLINOIS REVIEW
— The One Issue that Cannot Even Be Discussed – John F. Di Leo (COMMENT: How many millions of the many millions in America illegally use their false identifications to vote for Democrats?)
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.)

— 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.)

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.)
https://www.chicagotribune.com/politics/elections/ct-school-board-election-results-2023-20230407-pu33mjotp5ekxi6yuagbbpial4-story.html
(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.)

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.)

— There could be many violent reactions to transgenderism’s collapse – David Freddoso
https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/opinion/there-could-be-many-violent-reactions-to-transgenderisms-collapse
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The message of transgenderism is that a man can become a woman (or vice versa) simply by force of will or perhaps by putting on certain effeminate affectations or having certain surgeries. This message — so long as it is not forced on children — is harmful but not violent per se. The violence comes as a result of the one and only persuasive argument for transgenderism, which runs roughly as follows: “If you don’t agree with me about this, then I’m going to kill myself.” If you have been courageous enough to debate this issue at all, then you have encountered this “argument.” Perhaps it is not your interlocutor personally threatening suicide, but rather making the threat on behalf of millions of youth who will supposedly (no evidence for this, but fine) kill themselves unless they are immediately affirmed in what are probably just fleeting gender confusions through irreversible surgical and hormone treatments. So what to make of this argument? I think this is all you need to know: If a friend ever says to you in real life, “If you don’t do X, then I’ll kill myself,” please call the police immediately and get that person help. Even without a professional diagnosis, such a statement is ipso facto proof of mental illness and makes clear that the person speaking is a danger to himself and probably to others as well.)

BREITBART
— Trans Anti-Christian Video Game Attacking ‘Gender-Critical Tyrants’ Released Months Before School Attack – JOSHUA KLEIN (COMMENT: My critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes promote LGBTQ.)
https://www.breitbart.com/politics/2023/03/29/trans-anti-christian-video-game-released-months-school-attack/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: A video game featuring a transgender hero who shoots down trans critics — including priests — in order to allow players to “unleash [their] pent-up fury upon the gender-critical tyrants with an arsenal of deadly weapons” was published by a trans game developer two months before Monday’s Christian school shooting in Nashville, Tennessee. Titled “Terfenstein 3D,” the game’s name is a play on the pejorative term “TERF” or “Trans-Exclusionary Radical Feminist.” According to Dictionary.com, it refers to an “advocate of radical feminism who believes that a trans woman’s gender identity is not legitimate and who is hostile to the inclusion of trans people and gender-diverse people in the feminist movement.” The game is a spinoff of the classic Wolfenstein, the longest-running first-person shooter series, where an American Army captain protagonist battles off evil Nazis. However, in the Terfenstein version, Nazis are replaced with enemies such as religious clergy and transgenderism critics who are to be hunted and killed. A trailer for the game released in advance appears to show the main character gunning down unarmed priests. The game was released in mid-January this year by trans game developer Sandra Moen and is available on the Steam video game digital distribution service. According to the developer’s description on the site, the game entails “escaping a gender-fascist concentration camp.” “Unleash your pent-up fury upon the gender-critical tyrants with an arsenal of deadly weapons and tactics in cathartic bliss,” it reads. It further states: “The game offers LGBTQAI+, transgender, and feminist themes of gender-critical people and what a post-war apocalyptic world would look like if gender fascists won. In this dystopian world, fascists have killed and imprisoned all transgender and queer people, subjecting them to harsh conversion therapy, imprisonment, and death. You play as an escapee fleeing their detention center, while you exact your revenge. This game brings to light the very real transphobic violence many transgender people face for just existing. And draw a comparison between gender critics and nazi Germany.” It also claims that the ability to “artistically express yourself is a proven way to heal trauma and possibly also move on.” Only nine days prior to the attack, Moen appeared delighted that the game was gaining positive momentum. “How fun! recent reviews have gone from ‘mixed’ to ‘mostly positive,’” Moen wrote alongside a smiley face. “Want to contribute to the trans community by supporting a trans game developer? AND KILL fascist TERF’s?” Moen wrote last month. “Try my game ‘Terfenstein 3D.’” Later, Moen called the game a “call to action,” having previously explained that “TERF’s are not the only fascists you have to endure when you’re transgender.” The transgender movement has been accused of pushing hostile and apocalyptic rhetoric leading up to the deadly shooting of a Christian school in Nashville, Tennessee, which left six dead, including three nine-year-old children. The shooter was later revealed to be Audrey Hale, who identified as transgender. Several notable tweets appear to show gun-toting transgender activists threatening critics. “[I]f you transphobes do try to come for me I’m taking a few of you with me,” wrote one activist. In a now-deleted tweet, another transgender individual with an AR-15 and a handgun is pictured along with the words “Kill christcucks. Behead christcucks” and “crucify filthy christcucks” as well as “slam dunk a christcuck baby into a trashcan.” In one bizarre image, Minnesota Lt. Gov. Peggy Flanagan can be seen wearing a shirt that says “protect trans kids” alongside an illustration of a knife. Last month, left-wing radicals called for a “Trans Day of Vengeance” in Washington, DC, with the goal of stopping “trans genocide” by raising money for firearms. On Wednesday, Twitter restricted accounts of prominent conservative politicians, journalists, and activists that raised awareness over the “Trans Day of Vengeance.” Hale, who identified as a man, is the fourth transgender mass shooter in almost as many years. In 2018, Snochia Moseley, a man who identified as a woman, wounded three and killed three after opening fire at his place of employment in Aberdeen, Maryland. In 2019, a Colorado woman who identified as male shot up a school, killing one and wounding eight. Last year, a Colorado man accused of shooting up a gay nightclub, killing five and wounding 18, identified as transsexual. Noting the pattern, political columnist Benny Johnson concluded: “One thing is VERY clear: the modern trans movement is radicalizing activists into terrorists.”)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: But trans activists were quick to point out that “trans day of vengeance” is a meme that has been around in the trans community for years and is not a call to violence — and said Twitter is misguided in its reasoning behind removing the tweets in support of the protest. Evan Greer, director of the nonprofit liberal advocacy group Fight for the Future, said Twitter’s actions are “the latest example of Big Tech companies employing double standards in content moderation.” “They are slow to moderate content targeting trans people, but quick to silence us when we speak out or push back. ’Trans Day of Vengeance’ is not a specific day or a call for violence. It’s a meme that’s been around for years, a way of expressing anger and frustration about oppression and violence the trans community faces daily,” Greer said. “Context is everything in content moderation, which is why content policies should be based in human rights and applied evenly, not changed rapidly based on public pressure or news cycles.” The poster in question is a largely text-based digital flyer. It reads “we want more than visibility” on top, followed by “trans day of vengeance” and “stop trans genocide” as well as the date and time of the planned protest.)

WBEZ
— Democrats ever-increasingly a) run America, b) run Illinois, and c) demonize, denigrate, and condemn Republicans as being extremists who should be gotten rid of once and for all. I should write a book about the following who have demonized, denigrated, and condemned me the most as being an extremist: past and present a) leaders of the Illinois Republican Party, DuPage County Republican Central Committee, and Milton Township Republican Organization, b) Republican candidates on ballots in my precinct and their political consultants, major donors, fundraisers, pollsters, campaign managers, campaign staff members, and campaign volunteers, c) conservative leaders and activists, and d) religious leaders and activists. I would focus on the aforesaid a) who have done the most to stop me from sending out GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters and/or to stop everyone from reading those newsletters, b) who have never come to my defense, and/or c) who have taken the most/biggest adverse actions against me.

— Democrats say “Rehiring retirees as a quick fix for Chicago Police could undermine reform. Throughout Chicago’s mayoral race, candidate Paul Vallas has said CPD retirees are low-hanging fruit for replenishing sworn police ranks.” My critics/opponents stress a) that employers push their employees who they want to get rid of to retire as soon as they are eligible and b) that GAO forced me to take early retirement in 1997 when I was 49 years old. According to my critics/opponents, GAO did that because I was a “BAD” employee and not because I was an active member in a class action lawsuit that charged GAO with reverse discrimination and age discrimination.

STATELINE
— Democrats say “Illinois considers letting non-citizens become police officers.” If there had been as many non-citizens in the Chicago area when I was young as there are now, a) S.S. Kresge in Chicago Heights would have hired a non-citizen instead of me in 1964 to wash dishes, b) the Park Forest Post Office would have hired a non-citizen instead of me in 1966 to deliver mail, c) IRS in Chicago would have hired a non-citizen instead of me in 1971 to collect delinquent taxes, and d) GAO in Chicago would have hired a non-citizen instead of me in 1980 to audit federal agencies. My critics/opponents cannot similarly say that non-citizens would have been hired instead of them because they did not have to take “bad jobs” like I did because their parents had far more money than my parents had. I should write a book about my critics/opponents.

— Democrats say “GOP wants answers after IRS agent allegedly shows up at Twitter Files journalist’s house.” I should write a book about the adverse actions that the Democrats who ran IRS took against me. I would focus on their a) disallowing my travel vouchers in 1974, b) disallowing my education deductions in 1978, and c) not promoting me after 1974. One reason why I agreed to suffer a $21,863/year (21%) pay cut in today’s dollars to transfer from IRS to GAO in 1980 was to escape further adverse actions.

Consequently, my precinct needlessly suffered far greater exposure to storm-caused outages. Actions that I took included pursing an ICC complaint (Docket No. 990063) against ComEd.

GOPUSA ILLINOIS
— Should I form an “Association of Conservative Illinois Journalists?” Of course my critics/opponents would fight me tooth and nail.

My critics/opponents destroy those like me a) who they cannot manipulate or dominate, b) who refuse to glorify and praise them, c) who refuse to pander to them, d) who refuse to serve as one of their operatives or dupes, e) who refuse to cover up their wrong doing, and/or f) who refuse to give them money. My critics/opponents have taken many big adverse actions against me a) to stop me from sending out GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters and b) to stop everyone from reading my newsletters. Most recently, they did everything that they could to stop me from reporting on the February 20, 2023 DeSantis event in Elmhurst. I should write a book about my critics/opponents. I would focus on those who compete directly against me and who paint themselves as being religious, conservative, and/or Republican and who have lots of religious, government, political, and/or financial clout in Wheaton, Milton Township, DuPage County, and/or Illinois. Better yet, I should sue them. – Dave Diersen

AMERICAN THINKER
— Transgenderism remains a mental illness – Don Fisher, Jr.
https://www.americanthinker.com/blog/2023/03/transgenderism_remains_a_mental_illness.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Of course, the fictional notion of transitioning to the other sex is complete nonsense, and up until 2013 it was accurately categorized as a mental illness by the American Psychiatric Association (A.P.A.). In that year, the DSM-5 downgraded transgenderism to “gender dysphoria,” and it’s a safe bet that the Leftists who control the A.P.A. will erase it completely in their next edition, much as they did when homosexuality was eliminated from their list of mental illnesses. That slight-of-hand was accomplished not by advances in science nor medicine, but by relentless lobbying from various pro-homosexual groups and the voting body of the A.P.A. That was the first step in getting it accepted by mainstream society, and the issue of transgenderism is following a similar path. In the following days, we’ll be lectured by the usual leftists pretending to be journalists about all the evils of allowing guns in our modern society, but criticism of transgenderism will be strictly off limits. We’ll be told that this fantasy male that Audrey Hale was becoming would have been her “authentic self,” and that any torment she suffered was the fault of a repressive and bigoted society that cannot accept the amazing people who discover their need to change. No, they’ll wail, it’s not the fault of those confused few whose bodies don’t match their imaginations, but rather it’s caused by everyone else who adheres to human biology and history since mankind began. For the record, being transgender or having a host of other mental illnesses doesn’t necessarily make someone a violent threat to society, and it’s not meant to imply that Ms. Hale killed others because of her apparent transgender preference. Nevertheless, being diagnosed or self-identifying as transgender makes someone mentally ill and no amount of leftist spin, nor brightly colored flags in a parade, can change that.)

https://www.americanthinker.com/blog/2023/03/vivek_ramaswamys_extraordinary_discussion_with_jordan_peterson.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Transgenderism is a leftist-induced mental illness that is intended to achieve two very specific ends that will empower statism: First, it destroys the family. This is overtly achieved by the groomers in and outside of schools who tell children that “we’re your family,” and more covertly achieved by making these mentally damaged people physically and emotionally incapable of having children. Second, it makes these same people utterly dependent on the government to pay for the lifelong medical costs associated with hormones and surgery.)

WASHINGTON POST
— Democrats say “The gun that divides a nation. The AR-15 thrives in times of tension and tragedy. This is how it came to dominate the marketplace – and loom so large in the American psyche.” If/when the many millions of invading citizens of foreign countries start shooting at citizens of America, they will be met with American AR-15s.
https://www.washingtonpost.com/nation/interactive/2023/ar-15-america-gun-culture-politics/
— Democrats ask “Why do Americans own AR-15s?” and says “The Washington Post and Ipsos asked nearly 400 AR-15 owners why they own the rifle.” In Illinois, under the Democrats and under the RINOs, expect that ever-increasingly, the more of the following that you are, the more that you will be presumed to be an AR-15 owner, and therefore, the more that you will be demonized, denigrated, and condemned: FOID card holder, heterosexual, conservative, Republican, White, male, older, veteran, married, non-poor, married, homeowner, Christian, Protestant, Italian American, German American, and/or if your ancestors have been in America for a long time. Ever-increasingly, the more of the aforesaid that you are, the more that Democrats and RINOs do to get rid of you once and for all.
https://www.washingtonpost.com/nation/interactive/2023/american-ar-15-gun-owners/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The survey found that AR-15 owners come from red, blue and purple states. Compared with Americans as a whole, AR-15 owners are significantly more likely to be White, male and between the ages 40 and 65. They’re also more likely to have higher incomes, to have served in the military and to be Republican. And AR-15 owners are more likely to live in states former president Donald Trump won in 2020 than adults overall. Self-defense was the most popular reason for owning an AR-15. Other popular answers included recreation, target shooting and hunting, while some pointed to owning an AR-15 as their Second Amendment right.)

— Police seek motive as Nashville school shooting captures the attention of a divided nation – Terry Castleman, Alexandra E. Petri, Kevin Rector
https://news.yahoo.com/3-children-killed-shooting-nashville-163720648.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The shooter identified as transgender, according to police. Perhaps nowhere is that war as pronounced as in Tennessee, where conservative legislators recently banned gender-affirming care for transgender youth and barred drag queens or other “male or female impersonators” from performing anywhere near children. Metro Nashville Police Chief John Drake said police were examining whether the shooter’s transgender identity was part of the motive for the shooting. “As we know more, we’ll definitely make that known, but right now we’re unsure if that actually played a role,” he said. Drake said police believed the shooter might have harbored some “resentment” for “having to go to that school,” but he did not elaborate. Police did not respond to requests for clarity around Hale’s gender identity, chosen name or pronouns.)

https://www.miamiherald.com/news/politics-government/state-politics/article273634330.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: But the measure has come under intense criticism from First Amendment advocates, who say it is a direct violation of the free speech protections in the U.S. Constitution, and from both legacy media and conservative media outlets who warn that it will open the door to a barrage of lawsuits, including against conservative talk radio hosts.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: Based on the opinion given by a former Attorney General in 1972, an opinion Mortimer referenced while addressing the board, an appropriate reaction for central committees after a boundary realignment would be continue operating with the previous boundaries regardless of the change, as those precinct committee people are, in fact, elected officials. “It may be an old opinion, but the logic is still good,” Prosecuting Attorney Mark Taylor stated in regard to the 1972 opinion. He further clarified that Idaho code explicitly states Precinct Committeemen and women are to be elected, and appointments should only be made to fill vacancies resulting from death, moving out of jurisdiction areas and the like. If an elected person has not died or moved, he explained to the public, you cannot use a boundary change to remove that person from office. He continued by stating precinct boundary changes are not justification for removing an elected person from an elected position as they do not create vacancies which need to be filled.)

— Stressed-out students bailing out of college – Sean Salai (COMMENT: Government is nasty/vicious. Politics is nasty/vicious. My critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes hint/imply/argue/shout that more than anything else, avoiding the Viet Nam War draft motivated me to be a full-time student at UIC 1966-1968 and at NIU 1969-1970.

WASHINGTON EXAMINER
— If DeSantis is so bad, why did Trump endorse him twice? – Christopher Tremoglie (COMMENT: How bad am I? I should ask my critics/opponents: “If I am so bad, why did Roskam and Hultgren endorse me for Republican Precinct Committeeman in 2000?” Of course, my critics/opponents would say that Roskam and Hultgren strongly regret their endorsing me. My critics/opponents would stress the many adverse actions taken against me during and after Roskam’s and Hultgren’s terms in office including: a) rudely ending my bid to serve as the Milton Township Republican Organization (MTRO) Treasurer in 2004, b) rudely ending my service as MTRO webmaster in 2004 and 2010, c) almost getting the Illinois Center Right Coalition (ICRC) to censure me for my GOPUSA LLINOIS newsletters in 2006, d) rudely ending my service as an ICRC Steering Committee member in 2007, e) rudely ending my service as a Wheaton Chamber of Commerce Government Affairs Committee member in 2011, f) rudely ending my service as the TAPROOT Republicans of Illinois chairman in 2012, g) rudely gerrymandering my precinct in 2015, h) rudely ending my bid to be appointed to fill the Wheaton City Council West District vacancy in 2019, i) rudely ending my service as the Republican fundraiser for Wheaton Independence Day parades and fireworks in 2021, and j) rudely almost stopping me from attending the DeSantis event in Elmhurst as the GOPUSA Illinois reporter on February 20, 2023. They would stress a) that 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, b) that 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, c) that I worked for GAO on audits of IRS for 3 years and on audits of federal financial industry regulators for more than 8 years, d) that GAO works for Congress, and e) that neither Roskam nor Hultgren ever drew on my IRS or GAO work experience. My critics/opponents would hint/imply/argue/shout that Roskam and Hultgren not only withdrew their endorsement of me in 2002 when I supported Pat O’Malley instead of Jim Ryan in the 2002 Illinois gubernatorial primary, but that ever since then, they have called for MTRO, ICRC, Wheaton Chamber of Commerce, TAPROOT, Wheaton, etc. to get rid of me.)

— Ocasio-Cortez says she does not regret supporting candidate Jessica Cisneros. – Tyler Olson (COMMENT: I have only supported candidates who ran as Republicans in primaries and in nonpartisan elections. I should write a book about those candidates on ballots in my precinct since 2000 who I regret having supported the most. I would focus on those who have taken the most/biggest adverse actions against me. I would focus on those who have brought disgrace to the Republican Party. I would focus on those who falsely claimed to be conservative to get elected. I would focus on those who once elected, promoted dependency on government and charity, sexualization and LGBTQ, abortion, mass/illegal immigration, diminishment of Second Amendment rights, booze, gambling, pot, and other vices, Affirmative Action, Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, CRT, 1619, BLM, reparations, and wokeness/wokeism, that is, political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, and age discrimination. In my defense, in competitive races, I always supported the best of the candidates who ran, sadly, too often, that was the lesser of two, three, or more evils.)
