religious, government, political, and or financial clout in Wheaton, in Glen
Ellyn, in Milton Township, in DuPage County, and in Illinois. They include
activists, candidates, elected officials, party leaders, major donors, and
political consultants. They talk and/or act like they are Democrat plants,
Libertarian plants, Green plants, or RINOs. They blame me and my GOPUSA
ILLINOIS emails for all of their problems, your problems, my problems, and
everyone’s problems. They focus on destroying those like me who they cannot
