— Hold Members of Congress to Their Oath
https://www.newsmax.com/michaeldorstewitz/guatemala-omar-somalia/2025/08/11/id/1222008/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Rep. Delia Ramirez is the latest congresswoman to draw flak from remarks that call her allegiance to the United States into question, an allegiance to which they had both pledged when they were sworn in as a member of the U.S. House of Representatives. Speaking before a Mexico City summit over the last weekend, the Illinois Democrat announced, “I’m a proud Guatemalan before I’m an American.” Ramirez is a member of the House Committee on Homeland Security, and the Department of Homeland Security retweeted her statement along with a quote from Theodore Roosevelt: “There is no room in this country for hyphenated Americanism,” the 28th president said. “Americanism is a matter of the spirit and of the soul. Our allegiance must be purely to the United States. We must unsparingly condemn any man who holds any other allegiance.” That’s especially true for members of Congress. Their oath of office is as follows: “I do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same; that I take this obligation freely, without any mental reservation or purpose of evasion; and that I will well and faithfully discharge the duties of the office on which I am about to enter. So help me God.” As Roosevelt noted, there is no room for divided loyalties in this country — especially where one expresses a greater loyalty to a foreign country than to the United States. Although Ramirez was the latest politician to call her loyalty into question, she’s not the only one to do so.)
U.S. HOUSE ENERGY & COMMERCE COMMITTEE
— Chairman Guthrie Issues Statement Regarding CBO Coverage Update from the One Big Beautiful Bill
https://energycommerce.house.gov/posts/chairman-guthrie-issues-statement-regarding-cbo-coverage-update-from-the-one-big-beautiful-bill
(FROM THE POSTING: “The prolonged lie exacerbated by Democrats that 17 million individuals will lose health care coverage from the One Big Beautiful Bill Act has finally been dispelled by the Congressional Budget Office (CBO). In the most recent coverage update released by CBO, CBO estimates 10 million individuals enrolled in federal health care programs will no longer be covered, with 5.3 million being able-bodied adults refusing to work, 3.7 million having access to other forms of coverage, and the remaining balance being removed from the rolls since coverage was limited to U.S. citizens and lawfully permanent residents. It’s easy to scare people with coverage loss estimates, but the facts are clear – the vast majority of these individuals are either choosing to lose coverage or aren’t actually eligible for Medicaid, and nearly all are eligible for other forms of coverage. “I think about Americans all across the country, who work hard every day but have to pay with their own taxpayer dollars for the health care of millions of able-bodied Americans who are choosing not to work. Republicans will continue to find commonsense solutions that ensure these programs are available for those who need them most, for generations to come. I thank President Trump for his steadfast leadership on this issue and for signing a piece of legislation that promotes the future of our health programs to serve their intended purpose.” BACKGROUND: The Congressional Budget Office (CBO) recently released the updated coverage numbers for H.R. 1, the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (OBBBA). CBO estimated the total number of uninsured beneficiaries to be 10 million by 2034. The breakdown includes: 5.3 million able-bodied adults currently covered by Medicaid who are choosing not to work; 3.7 million individuals who will have access to another form of health insurance; and
1 million individuals who are not U.S. citizens or lawfully permanent residents.)

— For Democrats, the federal government exists to hire, retain, and promote Democrats. Democrat leaders of federal agencies decry/despise/hate Republican-led budget cuts. First, they deal with those cuts by getting rid of any remaining Republican employees. Next, they get rid of their Democrat employees who are White, male, older, non-veteran, Protestant, German American, and/or have ancestors who have been in America for a long time. And last, their Democrat employees who are minority, female, younger, veteran, non-Protestant, non-German American, and/or have ancestors who have not been in America for a long time.
https://www.chicagobusiness.com/elevate/federal-downsizing-leaves-still-employed-workers-vulnerable
— Federal job cuts take a bite out of Chicago’s economy. According to my Democrat and RINO critics/opponents, federal jobs should be given to those who are minority, female, younger, and/or veteran. I am none of the aforesaid. The Democrats who ran GAO in 1980, IRS in 1971, the Post Office in 1966 hired me because they could not find a Democrat, minority, female, younger person, or veteran who would take the job. Because I refused to become a Democrat, they ever-increasingly did everything that they could to get rid of me. I would not have survived for almost 3 years as a postal employee if I had not taken job-related undergraduate business courses at UIC 1966-1968 and NIU in 1969. I would not have survived for almost 9 years as an IRS employee if I had not a) taken graduate evening business courses at Loyola 1972-1976 and accounting courses DePaul 1976-1980 and b) passed the CPA examination on my first attempt in 1979. I would not have survived for almost 18 years as a GAO employee if I had not a earned an MBA from Loyola in 1976, b) earned a master’s degree in accounting from DePaul in 1980, c) passed the Certified Internal Auditor examination on my first attempt in 1981, d) became a licensed CPA in 1981, e) earned four more job-related professional certifications in 1990, 1994, 1996, and 1997, and f) earned a master’s degree in finance from IIT in 1997.
https://www.chicagobusiness.com/elevate/federal-jobs-cuts-ripple-through-chicago-region
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The federal government is the largest employer in the Chicago area, although at nearly 48,000 it’s a modest slice of a 5 million-strong area workforce. At the start of the year, the federal workforce nationwide was 3 million and 82,000 in Illinois. DOGE’s program is disproportionately stinging African American employees like Cherry. Of the federal workforce, 18.6% are Black, while Black people account for 13.7% of the U.S. population. And Black workers are an even bigger presence — 20% or more — at a number of departments including the Postal Service, Education Department, Department of Housing & Urban Development, Treasury Department and Department of Veterans Affairs — all of which have been hit with job cuts since President Donald Trump returned to the White House in January. The federal government is a significant employer of women of color, with Black women, Latinas and Asian women all having a greater presence in the federal workforce compared to the private sector, the National Women’s Law Center reports. “Federal employment is one of the few job sectors where Black women have had meaningful access to upward mobility,” Juliana Stratton, lieutenant governor of Illinois, and Cherita Ellens, president and CEO of Women Employed, wrote recently in a Chicago Tribune commentary essay. With above-average pay and solid benefits, federal employment has provided a path to the middle class not just for Black workers but for women and other disadvantaged groups. The government’s commitment to equal opportunity dating to the Civil Rights Act of 1964 has made public service an attractive sector for career advancement that may be less accessible in the private sector. The Trump administration’s purge of offices that promote equal opportunity and diversity and inclusion has particularly affected the employment of Black Americans. “The federal government has played a unique role in the labor history of Black Americans,” economic researcher Joseph Dean wrote in a February report by the Washington, D.C., nonprofit National Community Reinvestment Coalition. “The decades-long progress made by Black federal employees is in serious danger of being upended in a fraction of time it took to build,” Dean wrote. “Federal employment opportunities provide substantial economic independence and stability for Black middle class Americans.”)

— Which Republicans are seeking statewide office in 2026? So far, hardly any. Politicians set to gather at State Fair this week, unofficially kicking off 2026 election season.
https://www.25newsnow.com/2025/08/11/which-republicans-are-seeking-statewide-office-2026-so-far-hardly-any/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Thus far, just two lesser-known Republicans have expressed interest in challenging Pritzker in 2026. A similar group of lesser-known candidates is considering a U.S. Senate run, but there has been no news about anyone running for comptroller, treasurer or secretary of state. . .In the Senate race, four Republicans have filed paperwork with the Federal Election Commission and are actively raising money. Former Illinois Republican Party Chair Don Tracy is reportedly considering running for either governor or Senate and is expected to make an announcement soon. Ted Dabrowski, the president of conservative research site Wirepoints, is also considering running for governor. . .Bob Fioretti, who has unsuccessfully run for several offices as a member of both parties, is reportedly circulating petitions to run for attorney general. But even as petition-gathering begins, no other candidates are publicly known to be interested in running for other statewide offices. Notable names, including U.S. Rep. Darin LaHood and former Illinois Republican National Committeeman Richard Porter have declined to run for governor or Senate.)

CHICAGO TRIBUNE
— Trump offers $50,000 bonuses to hire thousands for ICE push. $50,000 is a lot of money. When I was 22 years old in 1971, in today’s dollars, my IRS salary was $55,858/year. To get hired, I had passed the Federal Service Entrance Examination and earned a bachelor’s degree in management from NIU. Democrat leaders ever-increasingly demonize, denigrate, and condemn ICE, and therefore, they ever-increasingly demonize, denigrate, and condemn ICE employees. My father never made more than $50k/year in today’s dollars. He died suddenly in 1969 when he was 47 and I was 21. He fought brittle type 1 diabetes from childhood. He was only the first of my ancestors to earn a high school diploma. He never attended college because his doctors told him that the stress would kill him.

ILLINOIS REVIEW
— Kathy Salvi to Resign as State Party Chair — Proof IL GOP Isn’t Dying, It’s Dead. DIERSEN: Leading a political organization is a thankless job. I served as an officer of the Illinois Center Right Coalition (ICRC) 2003-2007 and as the chairman of TAPROOT Republicans of Illinois 2005-2012. My critics/opponents ever-increasingly blamed ICRC and TAPROOT for losses that Republican candidates on ballots in my precinct suffered. My critics/opponents had their operatives and their dupes not only end my aforesaid roles, they destroyed the aforesaid organizations. I should write about my critics/opponents. They demonize me, denigrate me, and condemn me as being too conservative. I would focus on those who continue to have lots of religious, government, political, and/or financial clout in Wheaton, Milton Township, DuPage County, and/or Illinois. They have always been Democrat plants who have always done everything they could to destroy Republicans, and sooner or later, they will proudly proclaim that.
https://www.illinoisreview.com/illinoisreview/2025/08/sources-kathy-salvi-to-resign-as-state-party-chair-proof-il-gop-isnt-dying-its-dead.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The Illinois Republican Party continues its spectacular freefall into irrelevance, struggling with internal divisions, dwindling support and an increasingly uncertain future. Now, multiple sources have confirmed to this publication that Illinois GOP Chairwoman Kathy Salvi – after just one year in the role – plans to step down this summer, following the State Fair. Salvi, who previously lost a congressional race in 2006 and a U.S. Senate bid in 2022, took over the embattled state party last July after then-chairman Don Tracy – known for his deep Democratic ties and opposition to Trump – resigned, citing the rise of a powerful grassroots movement in his resignation letter. Since taking over, the state party chairwoman has been largely ineffective, leading a GOP that remains dysfunctional and often undermines its own base by targeting conservative, Trump-supporting candidates with vicious mailers and negative ads during primary elections. In seven months, Salvi has overseen only one meeting of the state central committee, the GOP’s governing board. Top IL GOP donors have also chosen to sit out this upcoming primary election. Amid a vacuum of leadership, direction, infrastructure and fundraising capacity – major donors increasingly view Illinois Republican candidates as a risky – and ultimately unrewarding investment. Without the support of major donors, the Illinois GOP faces a daunting path forward. The party’s internal divisions and lack of clear leadership have eroded confidence among those who traditionally fuel campaigns, leaving Republicans severely outmatched in both resources and organization. In January, a retiring state senator endorsed Salvi’s son – a political unknown – to succeed him in the state legislature, sparking accusations of nepotism and favoritism. Sources confirmed to this publication that the state party chairwoman had been lobbying behind the scenes to secure the appointment for her son. The Salvi family has been involved in Illinois Republican politics for decades. Her husband, Al, an attorney, has run unsuccessfully for office three times – losing a congressional race in 1986, a U.S. Senate race in 1996, and a bid for Illinois Secretary of State in 1998. As the midterm elections draw near, Democrats are poised to maintain control of every statewide office and preserve their supermajority in the legislature. For Republicans, this election season underscores a hard truth: they’re not just losing elections – they’re losing structure. There’s no head coach, no assistant coaches – just a political free-for-all. Unless the state GOP unites behind the grassroots, rebuilds its infrastructure, and offers a compelling vision, it risks remaining sidelined in Illinois politics for decades. No names have emerged as Salvi’s successor – which comes as no surprise. Few want to take the helm of a struggling party lacking infrastructure, fundraising or a clear path forward.)

— Trump Administration Begins to Strip Federal Workers of Union Protections. GAO did not unionize until 2007. If GAO had been unionized earlier, my Democrat GAO superiors would not have been able to a) force me retire when I was 49 years old in 1997, b) delay my promotions and never promote me beyond GS-13, c) always rank me in the bottom half of my coworkers for pay-for-performance, d) keep me off audits of IRS for all but 3 of the almost 18 years that I worked for GAO, and e) force me to take a $23,472/year (21%) pay cut in today’s dollars to transfer from IRS in 1980.

— Trump Escalates a Fight Over How to Measure Merit in American Education. President Trump’s most recent executive order wades into a debate over how elite colleges should weigh grades and test scores versus the obstacles students have overcome. What obstacles did you have to overcome? I was not viewed as being college material. Neither of my parents had attended college. My father was only the first of my ancestors to earn a high school diploma. My mother never attended high school. My ACT score was only 24. I only just barely made it into the upper 20% of my class. I washed dishes during my junior and senior years and the summer in between. 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.

When I ran for the open Milton Township Republican Organization Treasurer position in 2004, I stressed my experience. At that time, I was serving as the Illinois Center Right Coalition Treasurer. I had served as the Association of Government Accountants Chicago Chapter Treasurer for 3 years. I was a licensed CPA. I had passed the CPA and Certified Internal Auditor examinations on my first attempt. I had a master’s degree in accounting. I had worked for IRS for almost 9 years and for GAO for almost 18 years. But my opponent had his operatives and his dupes demonize me, denigrate me, and condemn me. He got 69 votes and I got only 13. He blamed me big time for George Ryan’s problems and for Jim Ryan’s loss to Blagojevich. I should write about the aforesaid.

When I was 40 years old in 1988, I became an active member in a class action lawsuit that charged my GAO superiors with reverse discrimination, age discrimination, and retaliation. GAO audits IRS. They had unofficially thrown me off audits of IRS before I was 40 in 1988 because I had complained about their political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, and age discrimination. They had kept me off audits of IRS 1980-1985. They had forced the GAO manager to retire in 1987 who had hired me in 1980 and who had finally been able to assign me to audits of IRS and to promote me in 1986. They had delayed my promotions, had never promoted me beyond GS-13, and had forced me to take a $23,472/year (21%) pay cut in today’s dollars to transfer from IRS to GAO in 1980. Democrats run GAO and IRS. They do not want Republicans to audit IRS.

— Plaintiff optimistic, DOJ interested in case against Illinois elections board
https://www.thecentersquare.com/illinois/article_748c769f-a4b8-463a-b8a1-873b7c66c20a.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: A legal case is moving forward against the Illinois State Board of Elections over allegations that the state failed to maintain voter registration lists. Former state Rep. Jeanne Ives, R-Wheaton, said the National Voter Registration Act requires the state to perform list maintenance and remove ineligible voters. U.S. District Court Judge Sara L. Ellis dismissed two plaintiffs from the case last week, but Ives’ group, Breakthrough Ideas, was not dismissed and retains standing as a plaintiff along with Illinois Family Action. The groups filed suit with Judicial Watch attorneys in March of 2024. Ives said it’s obvious that voter lists are not well-maintained in Illinois. “This creates extra costs people should not have to incur and it wastes time as well, not to mention it invites fraud when you do not have cleaned-up voter lists,” Ives told The Center Square. Ives said the dead have voted in Illinois. “I’ve pointed out a couple of dead people that I know casted votes, and there was no adequate explanation for why that occurred. Because they were not cleaned off the voter roll, it invited fraud one way or another. In the state of Illinois, this becomes even more problematic when you have permanent vote by mail,” Ives explained. “So you will have ballots being sent to people that are possibly moved or dead, which makes list maintenance even more important in the state of Illinois.” Ives said 23 Illinois counties with a combined registration list of 980,089 voters reported removing only 100 registrations over a two-year period. “That is an absurdly small number. There is no possible way those counties were conducting a general program that makes an effort to clean up the voter rolls, because only a hundred people died in 23 counties? Nobody believes that, so we know that they’re not doing what they should do,” Ives said. On July 8, the U.S. Department of Justice filed a 15-page statement of interest in the case. “When Illinois voters cast their ballots, they should be confident that their vote is given its due weight, undiluted by ineligible voters,” the statement began. “It is critical to remove ineligible voters from the registration rolls so that elections are conducted fairly, accurately, and without fraud,” said Assistant Attorney General Harmeet K. Dhillon of the Justice Department’s Civil Rights Division in a press release regarding the statement of interest. “Under the NVRA, states have the responsibility to conduct a robust program of list maintenance. The Department of Justice will vigorously enforce those requirements to ensure compliance.” Ives said the case could have ramifications across the country. She said it is possible that the DOJ will file its own lawsuit. As for what’s next, Ives said parties were waiting for a written ruling and it’s possible there could be a hearing later this month. Ives said she suspects there could be a settlement in the case.)

— Kane County Auditor Penny Wegman announces bid for treasurer. Incumbent GOP Treasurer Lauzen hasn’t said if he’ll run again.
https://www.shawlocal.com/kane-county-chronicle/2025/07/31/kane-county-auditor-penny-wegman-announces-bid-for-treasurer/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Kane County Auditor Penny Wegman on Wednesday officially announced her candidacy for county treasurer. Wegman, a Democrat, was elected to her second term as auditor last year. She will seek her party’s nomination in the March 17 primary election. If she wins the primary, she will be on the Nov. 5, 2026 general election ballot. In a news release Wednesday, Wegman pledged “to bring her proven record of fiscal responsibility, transparency and innovation to the treasurer’s office.” “As your county auditor, I’ve worked every day to make government more transparent, efficient, and accountable to taxpayers,” Wegman stated in the release. “Now, I’m ready to bring that same commitment to the treasurer’s office – to continue protecting taxpayer dollars and strengthening public trust in our financial institutions.” The current treasurer is Chris Lauzen, a Republican and former state senator and former county board chairman. He has not announced whether he would seek another term. Since taking office as auditor, Wegman said she led on several key initiatives that improved the county’s financial operations and public accountability. These include: Increasing transparency through a more accessible, online county checkbook, giving taxpayers real-time insight into county spending; Creating a successful internship program, providing hands-on government experience to local students and cultivating the next generation of public servants; Identifying and helping close policy gaps, collaborating with the county board to strengthen financial procedures and internal controls; Increasing county revenue by competitively bidding the purchase card vendor, securing better returns for Kane County taxpayers. “These are not just ideas – they are results, ” Wegman said in the release. “As treasurer, I will carry forward this momentum to modernize operations, safeguard county funds, and ensure Kane County residents get the transparency and service they deserve,” Wegman stated in the release. With her background in auditing, financial oversight and public service, Wegman stated in the release that she is “uniquely prepared to transition seamlessly into the treasurer’s role and immediately build upon the office’s core responsibilities: receiving, investing, and safeguarding the county’s funds.” Last year, Wegman received the Innovator Award from the International Association of Government Officials at its annual conference in New Orleans. The award was in recognition of Wegman’s work with the county’s procurement card program, which are known as p-cards and are county credit cards issued to department heads. Her campaign for treasurer will formally launch with a fundraiser on Aug. 28, at The Office, 201 E Main St., St. Charles. The public is invited to attend and learn more about Wegman’s vision for the treasurer’s office. In May, Candida “Connie” Cain announced she left the Kane County GOP to run for treasurer as a Democrat.)

https://www.govexec.com/management/2007/04/gao-settles-pay-dispute-with-12-of-308-senior-analysts/24307/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The Government Accountability Office has reached settlements with 12 of 308 employees denied pay increases last year. The 12 employees were offered promotions, back pay and associated benefits as if they had been promoted as of Jan. 8, 2006, several sources confirmed Thursday. The case goes back to June 2005, when GAO issued a plan for splitting one of its pay bands — Band II — into Band IIA and Band IIB. Employees placed in Band IIA were not granted pay increases, while employees placed in Band IIB got raises. Employees were required to earn a “meets expectations” on their performance appraisal to be eligible for Band IIB placement. GAO issued its final placement decisions in December 2005, and gave employees with Band IIA placement 30 days to appeal to the agency’s Office of Opportunities and Inclusiveness or its Personnel Appeals Board, one source said. “Each one of the 12 marched over to the appeals board as an act of personal courage and chose to run the risk of retaliation,” the source said. Several sources said there was little or no justification for the employees’ placement in the lower pay band. The appeals board’s general counsel, which represented the 12 employees, found that the data and calculations used to conduct the employees’ performance evaluations were unreliable and included significant flaws and inconsistencies. Several GAO employees and other sources, who spoke under condition of anonymity, questioned why the watchdog agency – which has insisted the pay determinations were justified – decided to settle with the 12 employees. The 12 employees are prohibited to speak to anyone about the details of the settlement unless asked as part of a congressional inquiry, one source said, adding that Rep. Danny Davis, D-Ill., has already asked the employees about the settlements.)

GAO would not have promoted me to GS-13 when I was 38 years old in 1986 if the GAO manager (Dave) who led the effort to get rid of me had not gone on extended sick leave. That finally allowed the GAO manager (Bill) who had arranged for my transfer from IRS in 1980 to assign me to audits of IRS in 1986 and to promote me in 1986. But Dave a) came back in 1987, b) forced Bill to resign in 1987, c) threw me off audits of IRS in late 1988, d) gave me a bad job assignment in 1989, e) gave me unfair performance expectations in 1989, f) gave me an unfair performance appraisal in 1989, g) ranked me at the bottom of my coworkers for pay-for-performance (PFP) in 1989, h) assured that I would always be ranked in the bottom half of my coworkers for PFP for the rest of my GAO career, i) assured that I would never again be assigned to audits of IRS, and j) forced me to retire when I was 49 years old in 1997. I should write about the aforesaid.

U.S. OFFICE OF PERSONNEL MANAGEMENT
— Merit Hiring Plan. For Democrats, the federal government exists to hire, retain, and promote Democrats. The Democrats who ran GAO in 1980, IRS in 1971, and the Post Office in 1966 hired me because they could not find a qualified Democrat, minority, female, younger person, or veteran who would take the job. They wasted my career and they got rid of me because I refused to become a Democrat.
https://www.dcpas.osd.mil/sites/default/files/2025-05/Merit%20Hiring%20Plan%205-29-2025.pdf
(FROM THE MEMORANDUM: The American people deserve a Federal workforce dedicated to American values and efficient service. Yet, Federal hiring criteria long ago abandoned any serious need for technical skills and adherence to the Constitution. Instead, the overly complex Federal hiring system overemphasized discriminatory “equity” quotas and too often resulted in the hiring of unfit, unskilled bureaucrats. The American people, who deserve a government that works for them, have suffered. In his January 20, 2025 Executive Order 14170, Reforming the Federal Hiring Process and Restoring Merit to Government Service (“Restoring Merit”) President Trump directed that “recruitment and hiring processes” become “more efficient and focused on serving the Nation” and that hiring be based on “merit, practical skill, and dedication to our Constitution.” These changes will “ensure that the Federal workforce is prepared to help achieve American greatness, and attract the talent necessary to serve our citizens effectively.” President Trump directed the Assistant to the President for Domestic Policy to “develop and send to agency heads a Federal Hiring Plan that brings to the Federal workforce only highly capable Americans dedicated to the furtherance of American ideals, values, and interests.” President Trump stated that this Merit Hiring Plan must achieve seven goals: 1. Prioritize recruitment of individuals committed to improving the efficiency of the Federal government, passionate about the ideals of our American republic, and committed to upholding the rule of law and the United States Constitution; 2. Prevent the hiring of individuals based on their race, sex, or religion, and prevent the hiring of individuals who are unwilling to defend the Constitution or to faithfully serve the Executive Branch; . . . Finally, the Merit Hiring Plan must provide specific best practices for the human resources (HR) function in each agency, which each agency head shall implement. These HR best practices are included as Appendix 1.2 The key elements of the following Merit Hiring Plan are: 1. Reforming the Federal recruitment process to ensure that only the most talented, capable and patriotic Americans are hired to the Federal service; 2. Implementing skills-based hiring, eliminating unnecessary degree requirements, and requiring the use of rigorous, job-related assessments to ensure candidates are selected based on their merit and competence, not their skin color or academic pedigree;)

— Don Tracy considers governor bid
https://www.politico.com/newsletters/illinois-playbook/2025/07/29/don-tracy-considers-governor-bid-00480953
(FROM THE ARTICLE: 2026 INTRIGUE: A familiar Republican name is eyeing the 2026 governor’s race. Don Tracy, the former chair of the Illinois Republican Party, confirmed to Lee Enterprises’ Brenden Moore that he is actively considering a bid for the state’s top job. “I’m taking a hard look at it,” Tracy told Moore, noting he’s been “making some calls” and that “several people” have urged him to throw his hat into the ring. The potential candidacy comes at a time when the Illinois GOP is in a prolonged wilderness stretch, failing to win a statewide race in nearly a decade. Tracy may be the Republican to change that. He’s a Springfield attorney and businessman with ties to the party’s donor class. And though he stepped down as chair last year, Tracy’s name still carries weight in Republican circles. It wouldn’t be easy. Incumbent Democratic Gov. JB Pritzker, a billionaire with virtually unlimited resources and a finely tuned political operation, announced in June that he will seek a third term. The governor has already signaled an aggressive campaign that focuses on attacking extremism. . .State Sen. Sue Rezin, who serves as deputy Republican leader, is returning to the trail. “After a lot of thought and discussions, I have decided to run for reelection to protect taxpayers’ pocketbooks, strengthen public safety and keep and grow good-paying jobs right here at home in the 38th Senate District,” she said in a statement. Rezin has been serving in the General Assembly since 2010.)

SIMPLY PSYCHOLOGY
— A meritocratic society allows those from lower socioeconomic status to aspire to a higher social class, status, and place in the hierarchy. Meritocracy enabled me to earn a bachelor’s degree, three master’s degrees, six professional certifications, and a professional license even though a) neither of my parents attended college, b) my father was only the first of my ancestors to earn a high school diploma, c) he never earned more than $50,000/year in today’s dollars, d)my mother never attended high school, and e) I had to work my way through college. My critics/opponents vehemently disagree. According to them, I was able to accomplish the aforesaid because I benefitted tremendously from discrimination against those who share their demographics: liberal, Democrat, RINO, minority, female, younger, veteran, non-Protestant, non-German American, and/or have ancestors who have not been in America for a long time. I should write about my critics/opponents. I would focus those whose parents had lots of money.

BURR RIDGE PATCH
— Burr Ridge Mayor Gary Grasso, an attorney, has announced he would run as a Republican for chairman of the DuPage County Board. Republican candidates increasingly lose elections in DuPage County because Democrats increasingly move into DuPage County to take advantage of the prosperity and safety that Republicans created there.
https://patch.com/illinois/burrridge/burr-ridge-mayor-seeks-higher-office
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The current chairman is Democrat Deb Conroy, who is in her first term. He served on the county board from 2012 to 2018. He has been mayor twice – 2005 to 2012 and since 2019. Historically, Republicans have controlled DuPage’s government. However, that has changed in recent years as Democrats have become more popular in suburbs across the country. In his statement, Grasso described himself as “socially moderate.” But Grasso may have trouble attracting the party’s MAGA wing. In 2022, Grasso lost the Republican race for Congress to MAGA enthusiast Keith Pekau, then Orland Park’s mayor, who went on to lose to Democratic incumbent Sean Casten. In his announcement, Grasso said Burr Ridge was the first to receive busloads of migrants from Chicago without notice or information about them. He said Burr Ridge welcomed the migrants while assuring the community that all were respecting the law. He said he would protect law-abiding, taxpaying immigrants who want to become citizens. But he said he would never offer sanctuary to undocumented immigrants who commit violent or serious crimes. Grasso also promoted his handling of the pandemic. He said he worked with the Village Board to provide stipends to small businesses to pay rents and salaries. He also said he found money to erect tents for restaurants rather than follow an “ill-advised” order to close them. Grasso said he was proud that Burr Ridge did not close or lose one business to COVID. “This is one of several reasons why the Village of Burr Ridge is debt-free today,” the mayor said. In his statement, Grasso noted he was chairman of the county’s 911 board. In that post, he said he led the consolidation of the county’s 21 call centers to two. He announced his Republican candidacy on his Facebook page titled, “Gary Grasso – Mayor of Burr Ridge” and labeled “Public & Government Service.” The Democratic and Republican primaries are March 17.)

The money was almost evenly split between Democrats and Republicans, with President Donald Trump and his 2024 rival Kamala Harris both recipients. The Democrat Party platform is extremely anti-religious.

CRAIN’S CHICAG BUSINESS
— Chicago Tribune begins newsroom layoffs in wake of failed buyouts. My Democrat GAO superiors always wanted to get rid of me and my coworkers who shared my demographics. In 1993, when I was 45 years old, they “offered” those like me who had 25 or more years of federal service a $25,000 buyout if we retired early. They succeeded in forcing me to retire 4 years later just before their “offer” expired. I would not have been eligible for regular retirement for another 6 years. Beyond the tremendous negative financial impact of being forced to retire early, it gives your critics/opponents something very big to use against you. They will hint/imply/argue/shout that the real reason why you were forced to retire early is that you are a bad person. Further, the more qualifications that you have, the more that they will hint/imply/argue/shout that the real reason why you were forced to retire early is that you are a bad person. When my Democrat GAO superiors forced me to retire, I had three job-related master’s degrees, six job-related professional certifications, and a job-related professional license.

STATE OF ILLINOIS
— Illinois Reinforces Commitment to Pay Transparency and Equity. My Democrat superiors in the federal government were always proud to report that they paid their Democrat employees more than they paid their Republican employees including me. They especially paid my Democrat coworkers more who were minority, female, veteran, and/or younger. They were especially proud to report that they forced me to take a $23,472/year (21%) pay cut in today’s dollars to transfer from IRS to GAO when I was 31 years old in 1997. If I had been a Democrat, minority, female, veteran, and/or younger, they would transferred me in as a GS-13, currently $117.807/year. Because I am a Republican, they did not assign me to audits of IRS and promote me to GS-13 until I was 38 years old in 1986. It is called political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, and age discrimination. GAO audits IRS. I had worked IRS for almost 9 years, the last 5 1/2 years of which at the GS-12 Step 1-5 Levels, currently $99,069-$112,280/year. I had earned an MBA from Loyola in 1976. I had passed the CPA examination on my first attempt in 1979. I had almost completed the requirements for a master’s degree in accounting from DePaul. All my coworkers who my Democrat IRS and GAO superiors promoted over me were Democrats a) who were minority, female, veteran, and/or younger and/or b) had less work experience than I had, had less education than I had, had no professional certifications or fewer than I had, and/or had no professional license like the one I had.

DURBIN
— The Only Qualification That President Trump Looks For In His Nominees Is Loyalty To Him And His MAGA Agenda. Durbin took to the Senate floor to denounce President Trump’s extreme and unqualified judicial nominees. The only employee qualifications that my Democrat superiors in the federal government looked for was being Democrat, minority, female, and/or younger. They replaced me with my Democrat Black subordinate when I was 49 years old in 1997. He had less job-related work experience than I had. He had less job-related education than I had. He had one job-related professional certification while I had six. He had no job-related professional license like the one I had.

WASHINGTON EXAMINER
— Trump creates new classification of non-career federal government worker. While I worked for the Democrats who ran the federal government for almost 30 years, their top priority always was hiring, retaining, and promoting Democrats who were minority, female, younger, and/or veteran. The Democrats who ran GAO in 1980, IRS in 1971, and the Post Office in 1966 hired me because they could not find a qualified Democrat who was minority, female, younger and/or veteran who would take the jobs. Because I failed/refused to become a Democrat, they wasted my career and they got rid of me. My critic/opponents have no problem with the aforesaid.
https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/news/3475158/trump-new-classification-non-career-federal-government-worker/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: In line with Trump’s approach to federal government hiring during his second administration, an emphasis will be placed on loyalty, with the classification providing another opportunity for the president to recruit people who align with his political and policy agenda.)
