BLOOMINGTON PANTAGRAPH
— COMMENT: Democrats say Jake Tapper says “Biden classified docs ‘politically neutralized’ Trump docs.” Expect that ever-increasingly, Democrats who want to dump Biden will stress the demographics that he shares with Trump including: White, male, older, non-poor, gun-owner, draft-avoider, Christian, heterosexual, married, parent, outspoken, and East Coast. Of course, they will use Duckworth to destroy Biden.

— COMMENT: Democrats say “Congressman LaHood of Illinois defends cutting IRS spending increase.” Who do you know who has worked for IRS? 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. Who do you know who has audited IRS? I worked for GAO on audits of IRS for 3 years at the GS-13 Step 1-3 Levels, currently $109,732-$117,047/year.)

CITIES 92.9
— COMMENT: According to Illinois Democrats, businesses are coping with Illinois’ minimum wage increase. Did you work for the minimum wage? I earned the minimum wage 1964-1966. In today’s dollars, I earned $11.28/hour. I washed dishes in the basement of the S.S. Kresge in Chicago Heights part-time during my junior and senior years at Crete-Monee High School and full-time during the summer of 1965. With the money that I earned, I bought a new 1966 Pontiac Tempest Sprint, a poor-man’s GTO, in May of 1966. I used that car to get to/from my parents’ home in Crete and a) jobs cleaning golf shoes, chipping slag, and pumping gasoline during the summer of 1966, b) delivering mail in Park Forest 1966-1967, and c) classes at UIC 1966-1967. I sold the car in late 1967 and bought a new 1968 Oldsmobile 442.

CENTER SQUARE ILLINOIS
— COMMENT: Illinois Democrats say “Legislation giving mandatory paid leave to all Illinois employees ready for governor.” (COMMENT: Ever since I was 18 years old in 1966 and started working part-time for the Park Forest Post Office (PFPO) while I attended UIC and NIU 1966-1969, my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes have been furiously envious of my vacation benefits. Because I had earned almost 3 years of full-time federal seniority by working only part-time for PFPO, I started earning 20 vacation days a year when I started working for IRS in 1971 and I starting earned 26 vacation days a year when I worked for GAO starting in 1983. Starting in 1973, I started taking vacation days because they were “use-or-lose.” The maximum number of unused vacation days that I could carry over each year was 30.

WASHINGTON TIMES
— Liberals reach ‘new high’ as share of Democratic Party – Jennifer Harper (COMMENT: While I worked for the Post Office 1966-1969, IRS 1971-1980, and GAO 1980-1997, virtually all my superiors, supervisors, coworkers, and subordinates were Democrats. As time when on, fewer and fewer and fewer of them were conservative and more and more and more of them were liberal.)
https://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2023/jan/15/inside-beltway-liberals-reach-new-high-share-democ/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: “After hovering near 50% in recent years, the percentage of Democrats who identify as politically liberal rose four percentage points in 2022 to 54%, a new high for this group. At the same time, the 10% describing themselves as conservative is the lowest to date. Thirty-six percent say their views are moderate, which is typical of the level recorded for Democrats over the past decade,” wrote Lydia Saad, a Gallup analyst. “Longer term, Democrats have been growing more liberal since at least the mid-1990s when Gallup regularly began tracking party groups’ ideological views. The percentage identifying as liberal was 25% in 1994; it rose to 40% by 2010 and 50% by 2017,” she said.)

— The Left is Becoming Increasingly Similar to the Taliban – Rachel Alexander (COMMENT: I should write a book about the following who since 2000 have been far more critical of conservatives, that is, far more critical platform Republicans, that is, far more critical of the base of the Republican Party in Illinois, in DuPage County, in Milton Township, in Wheaton, and in my precinct than they have been critical of the left: past and present a) leaders of the Illinois Republican Party, DuPage County Republican Central Committee, and Milton Township Republican Organization, b) Republican leaders of Illinois, DuPage County, Milton Township, Wheaton, Wheaton Park District, and Wheaton Chamber of Commerce, c) unsuccessful Republican candidates on ballots in my precinct and their major donors, political consultants, fundraisers, pollsters, campaign managers, campaign staff members, and campaign volunteers, d) conservative leaders, e) religious leaders, and f) those who I have sued. I would focus on the aforesaid who have taken the most/biggest adverse actions against me.)
https://townhall.com/columnists/rachelalexander/2023/01/16/the-left-is-becoming-increasingly-similar-to-the-taliban-n2618317
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The left likes to use its support for murdering unborn babies as evidence the right discriminates against women, but stepping back and looking at the big picture, it’s clear the left’s policies are more in step with the misogyny of the Taliban. In fact, the left’s increasingly fascist tendencies are starting to move toward many policies of the Taliban. The comparison is rarely made, however, because the similarities are subtle and are increasing slowly, akin to heating up a frog slowly in boiling water so it doesn’t realize what’s happening. The Taliban demands absolute adherence to its rigid beliefs, just like the left does with wokeism. Re-education or else. Wokeism is being coded into law, trampling on multiple rights including free speech, freedom of religion, freedom of association, the right to keep and bear arms, states’ rights and equal protection. Those who dissent are targeted and often held up as examples as a warning to others what will happen to them if they engage in the same type of behavior. Senior Taliban leaders recently said the harsh application of sharia law during their first era of rule in the 1990s was necessary because of the “depravity” and “chaos” that remained from the Soviet occupation. We see this take place in the U.S. frequently with civil protest. The left went after the J6 protesters heavy handedly, deliberately interpreting their actions in the worst possible light. In contrast, the “civil disobedience” of Antifa and BLM, burning down buildings and looting, was largely ignored because it was activism on the left. The J6 protesters were treated like violent felons, even though it was clear most of them were naive, not realizing the police officers waving them into the U.S. Capitol didn’t really mean to. Many were jailed for months without trials for non-violent offenses. The Taliban executes gays. So it was no surprise when the left came after gay conservative #WalkAway founder Brandon Straka extra harshly over J6, threatening to put him in prison for years with multiple felonies if he did not plead guilty to the misdemeanor offense of disorderly conduct. First time criminal offenders charged with disorderly conduct rarely get prosecuted, especially in this era with big blue cities like Washington D.C. no longer putting significant resources into prosecuting misdemeanors. Straka didn’t even enter the Capitol or engage in violence, prosecutors merely cited his statements. No doubt they were angry he gave a speech at the rally. He still must complete three years of probation and pay a $5,500 fine. He avoided posting on social media for an entire year during the prosecution, due to the threats of escalating the prosecution. The left cracks down on the pro-life movement, which is predominantly led by women. They are prosecuting them for not complying precisely with artificially carved out laws and legal interpretations regarding protests outside abortion clinics. People were shocked around the world to hear about a woman in the UK who was arrested last month for merely praying silently near an abortion clinic. The Taliban treats women as inferior, similar to how the left treats women as if they are constantly at risk for sexual assault, unable to defend themselves using a firearm or lacking the ability to compete academically on merit alone. They have instituted affirmative action and quotas everywhere as if women are incompetent in education, employment and entertainment. The Taliban has kept some women employed in government as tokenism, to create the illusion of equality. Some of them are forced to sign in to their jobs but then sent home. Similarly, the left puts women in do-gooder, feel-good positions of relative low worth. Instead of challenging and rewarding types of jobs, the left herds women toward “Karen” types of employment. First they encourage them to major in Gender Studies and other degrees that are mostly worthless. Then they usher them into positions like affirmative action coordinator and gender identity specialist. They will be disliked by many holding those positions, not likely to gain much self-worth in them, constantly reminded of their alleged inferiority. When the Taliban allows women to attend school, they are segregated by sex. Similarly, the left is increasingly promoting all-female schools and classes. Men report horrible experiences attempting to major in Women’s Studies or attend one of those types of classes. Just like the Taliban, the left overly emphasizes the differences between the two genders, artificially increasing the divide and hostility between the sexes. The Taliban discriminates against religious and ethnic minorities. The left has been moving in that direction for years. They are trying to stamp out the Christian religion with legislation, gloating as Christianity dwindles. Breathless headlines blare every time a new study comes out showing fewer identify as Christians or attend church. A September 2022 survey dominated the news for days, which asserted that Christianity could become a minority religion as soon as 2045. The left reserves some of its cruelest vengeance for conservative blacks and other ethnic minorities. It’s become a common theme. Many are blatantly arrogant about the status quo, like President Joe Biden, who told Charlamagne tha God, “If you have a problem figuring out whether you’re for me or Trump, then you ain’t black.” Politically motivated prosecutors under the Obama DOJ went after Dinesh D’Souza for an election violation that would have been handled civilly for anyone else, putting him in prison. The left is using the government to crack down on opposition and dissent just like the Taliban, it’s just not as overt or drastic; there are no executions or hands chopped off. Instead, the left comes after people with bogus prosecutions and creates Orwellian new rules and laws to restrict their behavior. The rights of conservatives are trampled on with these laws, while the left is free to do what it wishes, because it’s renamed its authoritarianism to “doing good.”)

— COMMENT: Democrats say “U.S. National Parks to waive entrance fees for MLK holiday and 4 other days in 2023.” Between 1978 and 1992, while I worked for IRS and then for GAO and my wife worked for the U.S. League of Savings Institutions, we visited many national parks in conjunction with her four business trips every year to luxury resorts across America. Most commonly, after her business meetings were over, we rented a car and visited nearby national parks. The U.S. League of Savings Institutions paid for her air fare and for our hotel rooms. I was a “corporate husband.” Of course, all my Democrat IRS and GAO superiors, supervisors, coworkers, and subordinates were furiously envious of that, and especially those whose spouse had little or no income. The national parks we visited included Acadia, Arches, Badlands, Big Bend, Black Canyon, Bryce Canyon, Carlsbad Caverns, Canyonlands, Crater Lake, Death Valley, Everglades, Glacier, Grand Canyon, Grand Teton, Great Basin, Great Smoky, Hawaii Volcanoes, Joshua Tree, Kings Canyon, Mammoth Cave, Mesa Verde, Mount Rainier, Olympic, Petrified Forest, Redwood, Rocky Mountain, Sequoia, Yellowstone, Yosemite, and Zion.

NBC BOSTON
— COMMENT: Boston Democrats say “Wealth Looms Big as Ever in Post-scandal College Admissions. Critics say the case revealed deeper, more troubling imbalances.” Should everyone be required to disclose how much education, money, and clout their parents had? My outstanding father, who died suddenly in 1969 when he was 47 and I was 21, never earned more than $50,000/year in today’s dollars. He worked in the office of a nasty chemical plant on the east side of Chicago Heights. He almost always worked second jobs to pay the family’s bills. He never attended college. He was the first of my ancestor’s to earn a high school diploma. He fought brittle type one diabetes from childhood. My outstanding mother never attended high school. My father often lamented that he did not have a college degree. That motivated me to take college preparatory courses in high school, to get an ACT score of 24, to graduate in the upper 20% of my class, to get accepted by UIC, and to earn a bachelor’s degree in management from NIU in 1970. To pay for my college expenses at UIC and NIU and for new cars (1966 Pontiac Tempest Sprint, 1968 Oldsmobile 442, and 1969 Dodge Charger SE) to get to/from my parents’ home in Crete and jobs and classes at UIC and NIU, a) I washed dishes in Chicago Heights 1964-1966; b) I cleaned golf shoes in Flossmoor and chipped slag and pumped gasoline in South Chicago Heights in 1966; c) I delivered mail in Park Forest 1966-1969; and d) I worked on an automobile assembly line in Belvidere and as a security guard in DeKalb in 1970.

Frascino (COMMENT: Ever-increasingly, Democrats shout at those who are the following that they are victims of Republicans: minority, female, younger, LGBTQ, veteran, unmarried, renters, those who have less money than others, those who have financial, health, and/or other problems, non-Christian, non-Protestant, non-Italian American non-German American, those whose ancestors have not been in America for a long time, citizens of foreign countries, criminals, boozers, gamblers, stoners, etc.)
https://www.americanthinker.com/blog/2023/01/victims_wanted__no_experience_necessary_apply_within.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: When it’s not creating social injustices to overcome, the Left is busy creating victims to maintain its voter base. In contemporary America, the Democratic Party voter base is composed primarily of individuals who perceive themselves to be disadvantaged, disenfranchised, marginalized, or in some fashion, left out. They feel, in some sense, victimized. With the actual numbers of those truly victimized declining markedly in recent decades, the party needs to perpetuate perceived victimhood to maintain its political appeal. The party excels in generating victims over a broad spectrum of societal factions through identity politics and its D-E-I agenda. People of color. Victims of white privilege. Any failings they may experience are due solely to an oppressive social structure based in white supremacy. They are entitled to equity-based advancement and, as now proposed in California, reparations, in return for loyalty at the ballot box. Women. Victims of misogyny and patriarchy, even though they now surpass males in educational achievement and the number of women in the workforce now equals or slightly exceeds the number of men. The overturning of Roe v. Wade has exacerbated their victimhood. Access to safe abortion is a human right! Women lacking access to abortion are victims. Aborted fetuses are not — they can’t vote. “My body, my choice!“ is the mantra. One wonders what “my body, my choice” has to do with a fetus’s body? Does “my body, my choice” sanction suicide? The LGBTQ community. They are victims of heterosexual bigotry (although being homosexual didn’t seem to hold back Alexander the Great, Leonardo da Vinci, Tim Cook, Oscar Wilde, Elton John, etc.). Under wokeism’s exalting of gender dysphoria, 33% of students at liberal arts colleges now identify as LGBTQ. 21% of Gen Z are self-declared LGBTQ. The incidence of those who identify as something other than hetero has risen from 3.5% in 2012 to 7.1% in the general public. Not all this sharp escalation can be reasonably attributed to an increased comfort with “coming out,” but is more certainly a consequence of woke activism. Our youth. Herein lies the greatest source of potential victims. First, strip them of societal connectivity. Debase America, patriotism, religion, family structure, gender identity, even commitment to a first name. Turn them all into “Rolling Stones” — “on their own, with no direction home, like a complete unknown.” Make them insecure and vulnerable. Then coddle and indulge them. Teach them that the slightest affronts are catastrophes. Teach them to flee from microaggressions to safe spaces. Suspend classes and postpone finals following Trump’s election. Create a generation of victimized snowflakes who can turn only to a nurturing political elite for protection. It’s working. Joe Biden garnered 65% of Gen Z votes. Illegal immigrants. They are all asylum-seeking victims of political prosecution and/or human rights violations in their native lands. No. They are all potential Democratic voters, at least this generation. Criminals. Victims of the social system. Incarceration only leads to recidivism — and inmates can’t vote. Prosecutorial leniency is the better option. Whites. Mainstream whites are not victims. However, woke preaching teaches them that their success is unearned and inequitable, a product of white privilege and unconscious bias. This results in a cadre of guilt-ridden, virtue-signaling whites — today’s liberals — who repent by supporting the woke progressive agenda. Marginalized white residents of rural areas such as Appalachia also do not qualify for victimhood. Possessed of white privilege, it is only through their own failings that they are underachievers. They have to be written off as irredeemable MAGA voters. In 21st-century America, victimhood is largely a state of mind. If Prince Harry and Meghan can be victims, anyone can! All the party need do to lock in its base is keep the glass half empty for those inclined to be dissatisfied or dissident on the one hand, while offering them “hope and change” with the other. That leaves it free to pursue any inane policy it chooses. Zero CO2 emissions by 2050, anyone?)

BIZ PAC REVIEW
— ‘A little tear’: MacCallum predicts how Statue of Liberty would react to migrant ‘mayhem’ in NYC – Chris Donaldson (COMMENT: Ever-increasingly, Democrats, Libertarians, Greens, Independents, and RINOs promote illegal immigration and paint illegals as being GOD-LIKE.)
https://www.bizpacreview.com/2023/01/14/a-little-tear-maccallum-predicts-how-statue-of-liberty-would-react-to-migrant-mayhem-in-nyc-1324765/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Fox News host Martha MacCallum reacted to a whistleblower account of illegal immigrants who are housed in a swanky New York City hotel being picky about their free gourmet food and spending their time drinking, getting high, having sex and engaging in domestic violence by suggesting that such behavior would bring a tear to the Statue of Liberty’s eye. . .And I’m thinking there’s a little tear coming down the Statue of Liberty’s head when she hears that the food is not exactly what they would like and there is mayhem going on in these hotels, where people are also, according to this whistleblower, having sex in the hallways, getting into fights, domestic abuse is taking place,” she said. . .On Wednesday’s edition of “The Ingraham Angle,” Rodriguez shared a video of trash bags of uneaten, fresh “good food” that is rotting because the picky “migrants don’t want to eat them.” “They said they don’t like it,” he said of the discarded dinners. “This is all food that is going to waste. This is insane.” “The chaos that we see at the Row today is [caused] by migrants being drunk, drinking all day, smoking marijuana [and] consuming drugs,” Rodriguez added, noting that the hotel is struggling with an explosion of “domestic violence” among the illegals with young people “having sex in the stairs,” and fighting with hotel security personnel. “The form in which they keep their rooms is horrendous. They don’t clean it, they don’t fold their clothes. They’re hoarding clothes, they’re hoarding whatever they can hoard,” he said, explaining that the employees have lost control over the hotel and the migrants act like they own the place. “There’s no accountability.” “The ones that have all the power are the migrants. The hotel workers lost their power in the hotel,” Rodriguez said.)

They did NOT force me to retire because I fail/refused to carry out their preference-giving orders. I should write a book about the tremendous preference that I gave my Democrat GAO subordinates who were minority, female, younger, veteran, non-Protestant, non-German American, and/or those whose ancestors had not been in America for a long time. Virtually all my GAO subordinates were the aforesaid.)

Because I had earned almost 3 years of full-time federal seniority by working only part-time for the Park Forest Post Office while I attended UIC and NIU 1966-1969, starting in 1971, I earned 20 vacation days a year, and starting in 1983, I earned 26 vacation days a year.

MODERN PATRIOTS
— Jonathan Turley Takes Biden Apart Over Classified Documents and Corvette Standard (COMMENT: I have owned my 1972 Corvette since 1971. I should write a book about my Democrat IRS and GAO superiors, supervisors, coworkers, and subordinates who demonized, denigrated, and condemned Corvettes and Corvette owners the most.)
https://modernpatriots.com/jonathan-turley-takes-biden-apart-over-classified-documents-and-corvette-standard
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Biden responded to this with a horrible response, claiming that the classified documents were kept next to his Corvette. “My Corvette is in a locked garage okay?” It’s not like they’re out on the streets. Jonathan Turley, a George Washington Law School professor, was moved by this. Biden was ridiculed for his absurd response. He said, “The corvette standards are not in classified protocols ” and observed, “The White House counsel could now cite the corvette’s long-standing slogan: Like a car but better.” . . . It is amazing that Joe Biden would act like being right next to his Corvette makes him cool. He took who knows how many classified papers and had them scattered all over the place, including in insecure locations. How could this man ever comment on President Donald Trump, who was granted the right to presidential records and kept them in a vault in his home? This was crazy! Here’s Joe Biden pulling his Corvette from the garage where it was kept in a 2020 campaign video. As you can see, he has boxes on the right and storage space to his left. This is where classified documents were stored. It is a heap of junk, and there’s no place you would want classified documents open to the streets. Do they sit next to an old broken lamp? This gives Joe great assurance about the “Corvette Standard.”)

— The Death of Merit – Scott Hogenson (COMMENT: My Democrat IRS and GAO superiors were furious when I did the following because it made it more difficult for them to promote Democrat minorities and females over me who had not earned job-related master’s degrees and professional certifications and licenses. I earned an MBA from Loyola in 1976 when I was 27 years old. I passed the CPA examination on my first attempt in 1979. I earned a master’s degree in accounting from DePaul in 1980. I passed the Certified Internal Auditor examination on my first attempt in 1981. I became a licensed CPA in 1981. I became a Certified Fraud Examiner in 1990, Government Financial Manager in 1994, Financial Services Auditor in 1996, and Forensic Accountant in 1997. I earned a master’s degree in financial markets and trading from IIT in 1997.)
https://townhall.com/columnists/scotthogenson/2023/01/14/the-death-of-merit-n2618106
(FROM THE ARTICLE: America has always been a land of opportunity. That’s because our nation was founded as a meritocracy, the wellspring of excellence. This concept is central to American exceptionalism. The Declaration of Independence and the Constitution were written in a time when almost the entire world was governed by systems of monarchy, absolutism or outright dictatorships that rarely, if ever, recognized individual merit. In this regard, America’s founding was indeed exceptional. Leftists detest America’s meritocracy. The reason is simple: recognizing merit means there will be winners and losers, a fact that motivates all of us to try harder with a belief in and reliance upon oneself. Those who exhibit greater merit – through hard work, resourcefulness, perseverance, innate aptitude and so forth – usually enjoy more success. Meritocracy motivates us to individualism and excellence, and is hardwired into the DNA of the human race. The polar opposite of meritocracy is equality of outcome, which requires the entire society, save for political and cultural elites, to exist at the lowest common denominator. It is the foundation of socialist and communist dictatorships, enforced through violence, because totalitarians know that living life at the lowest common denominator is contrary to human nature and natural law. It is no secret that merit is not now, nor has it ever been, universally recognized. The first lesson my father taught me as a very young child was “life isn’t fair,” and time has proved him correct. But the periodic unfairness of life doesn’t mean meritocracies are bad. To paraphrase Winston Churchill, meritocracies are the worst form of society except for all the others that have been tried.)

None of them lived in slave states. None of them were employers. The men worked in brick factory, were farmers, operated a hardware store, and worked in the office of a chemical plant. The women were homemakers. None of them owned slaves. None of them directly benefitted from slavery. None of them fought for the Confederate Army.

https://abc7chicago.com/illinois-sheriffs-assault-weapons-ban-weapon-bans-2023-gun-laws/12699694/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: A growing cadre of sheriffs in the Chicago area – in McHenry, DeKalb, Kane, DuPage, La Salle, Grundy, and Kankakee counties – have publicly written that they will not enforce the Protect Illinois Communities Act, saying it violates the constitutional right to bear arms. . .DuPage County Sheriff Jim Mendrick is among the most recent law enforcement chief to say he and his deputies won’t be checking to make sure legal gun owners have registered their weapons with the state. The sheriff said they won’t be arresting and holding law abiding gun owners in jail for not complying with the law. However, the DuPage County’s Board president publicly disagrees. She led a vote to ban assault weapons across the county after the Fourth of July massacre in Highland Park. “These are folks that are entrusted by the public to enforce the law. They don’t get to choose which laws they enforce. They must enforce what we’ve written into the code — the General Assembly, signed by the governor, and they will do so,” said Governor JB Pritzker. . .As sheriffs in DuPage County, and elsewhere, take sides, the new gun law is nearly guaranteed to be challenged in court.)

DUPAGE COUNTY
— COMMENT: DuPage County Democrats say “Statement attributable to DuPage County Board Chair Deborah Conroy: “I was disappointed to read the statement released today by DuPage County Sheriff Jim Mendrick. On October 25, the DuPage County Board heard a moving account provided by Highland Park Mayor Nancy Rotering. She detailed the devastating impact one shooter and one assault weapon had on her town. That day, the Board voted to support a state ban on assault weapons and high-capacity magazines. Illinois Public Act 102-1116 accomplishes those two goals. As Chair of the DuPage County Board, I stand behind the legislation passed to ban assault weapons. As Governor Pritzker has said, ‘You don’t get to choose which laws you comply with in the state of Illinois.’ And I believe, in DuPage County, we should not be playing politics with state laws.” Ever-increasingly, Illinois Democrats erode Second Amendment rights.

I should write a book about how the Illinois Republican Party, DuPage County Republican Central Committee, and Milton Township Republican Organization have responded to that.

— FRONT PAGE: Even a Little Alcohol Can Harm Your Health. Recent research makes it clear that any amount of drinking can be detrimental. – Dana G. Smith (COMMENT: I have never been a drinker. Many, if not most of my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes are/were big drinkers. I should write a book about them. I would focus on those who have taken the most/biggest adverse actions against me. I would focus on my Democrat GAO superior who took the most/biggest adverse actions against me. He forced me to suffer a $21,863/year pay cut in today’s dollars to transfer from IRS to GAO in 1980 when I was 31 years old. He delayed my promotions to GS-11, GS-12, and GS-13 and stopped me from getting any more promotions. He kept me off audits of IRS for all but 3 (1986-1988) of the almost 18 years that I worked for GAO. He always gave me unfair job assignments, performance expectations, and performance appraisals. He always turned my superiors, supervisors, coworkers, and subordinates against me. He always ranked me in the bottom half of my coworkers for pay-for-performance purposes. If he had not gone on extended sick leave because of his heavy drinking 1985-1987, he would have succeeded in a) stopping me from being assigned to any audits of IRS in 1986 and b) stopping me from getting promoted to GS-13 in 1986. He disapproved of my demographics, especially that I was conservative, Republican, draft-avoider, Protestant, 100% German American, my ancestors had been in America since 1844, I lived in Crete 1948-1972, and I lived in Wheaton since 1978. He was especially envious of my wife’s income and her job travel that enabled us to stay at many luxury resorts and visit many national parks 1978-1992. He stressed to my superiors that my wife and I gave up trying to have children, we did not adopt, and we did not become foster parents. He hinted/implied/argued/shouted that we had lied about our wanting to have children and that we were just selfish rich DINKs. He disapproved of my bringing with me when I transferred from IRS almost 12 years of federal seniority and many unused vacation days and sick days. He was especially furious that I got almost 3 years of full-time federal seniority while I worked for the Post Office 1966-1969 part-time. He crowed to me that he had succeeded in getting Congress to end that seniority benefit. He was furious that because of my federal seniority that I earned working for the Post Office and IRS, I got a preferred corner office in 1990 and was eligible to take early retirement in 1993 when I was 45 years old )

In my defense, while I am all of the aforesaid and my ancestors have been in America since 1844, all my ancestors have always lived in northeast Illinois and none of them discriminated against anyone. None of my ancestors attended college. My father was the first of my ancestors to earn a high school diploma. My mother never attended high school. My grandfather on my mother’s side fought the Germans in WWI. My uncles on my mother’s side fought the Germans in WWII. My father would have fought the Germans in WWII if he had not been 4-F. My ancestors who were men worked in a brick factory, were farmers, sold horses, operated a hardware store, and/or worked in the office of a chemical plant. The women were homemakers.

I would focus on my critics/opponents who are past and present a) leaders of the Illinois Republican Party, DuPage County Republican Central Committee, and Milton Township Republican Organization, b) Republican leaders of Illinois, DuPage County, Milton Township, Wheaton, Wheaton Park District, and Wheaton Chamber of Commerce, c) unsuccessful Republican candidates on ballots in my precinct and their major donors, political consultants, fundraisers, pollsters, campaign managers, campaign staff members, and campaign volunteers, d) conservative leaders, e) religious leaders, and f) those who I have sued. Would my critics/opponents be satisfied if the aforesaid planks were modified to say that the Republican Party opposes the promotion of dependency on government and charity, LGBTQ, abortion, mass/illegal immigration, erosion of Second Amendment rights, booze, gambling, pot, and other vices, patronage, political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination (including Affirmative Action, Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, CRT, 1619, BLM, reparation, wokeness/wokeism), and age discrimination?)

GOPUSA ILLINOIS
— What does the future hold for you? – Dave Diersen
http://www.gopillinois.com

From what I see spending 10+ hours each and every day putting GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters together and sending them out, the more of the following that you are, the more bleak that your future is: conservative, Republican, White, male, older, heterosexual, Christian, Protestant, Italian American, German America, and/or if your ancestors have been America for a long time.

Ever-increasingly, the more of the aforesaid that you are, the more that Democrats, Libertarians, Greens, Independents, and RINOs demonize you, denigrate you, and condemn you as being a White supremacist, Nazi, KKK member, hater, racist, sexist, bigot, and even worse things who should be gotten rid of once and for all.

Ever-increasingly, the more of the aforesaid that you are, the less that Republican, conservative, and religious organizations come to your defense.

Ever-increasingly, Democrats are succeeding in replacing those who have demographics that vote for Republicans with those who have demographics that vote for Democrats.

Demographics that vote for Republicans include: conservative, White, male, older, heterosexual, healthy, non-poor, Christian, Protestant, Italian American, German America, and/or if your ancestors have been America for a long time.

Demographics that vote for Democrats include: liberal, moderate, minority, female, LGBTQ, disabled, poor, non-Christian, non-Protestant, non-Italian American, non-German America, and/or those whose ancestors have not been America for a long time.

Overwhelmingly, those who are in America illegally have demographics that vote for Democrats. Ever-increasingly, they will vote for Democrats.

Political parties exist to help elect candidates who can and will defend and advance their platform. The Republican Party platform is conservative.

How soon will Democrats, Libertarians, Greens, Independents, and RINOs succeed in getting the Republican Party a) to officially dump the following planks in its platform: individual responsibility, traditional marriage/family, right to life, immigration, Second Amendment, illegal drugs, and/or equal opportunity (no race or gender based preference giving); b) to officially dump party leaders who support the aforesaid planks; c) to officially dump voters who support the aforesaid planks; and d) to officially dissolve the Republican Party?

— COMMENT: Democrats say “GOP Rep. George Santos Vows to Serve Out His Full Term as More Republicans Push Him to Resign.” To get preference, people falsely claim to be members of groups that get preference. Ever-increasingly, under the Democrats and under the RINOs, members of the following groups get preference: minority, female, younger, LGBTQ, veteran, non-Protestant, non-Italian American, non-German American, and those whose ancestors have not been in America for a long time. To give preference to one group is to discriminate against another group. Therefore, ever-increasingly, Democrats and RINOs discriminate against members of the following groups: White, male, older, heterosexual, non-veteran, Italian American, German American, and those whose ancestors have been in America for a long time. I should write a book about the aforesaid.

CENTRAL ILLINOIS PROUD
— COMMENT: Democrats say “Jeffries to GOP on Santos: Clean up your house.” To get preference, people falsely claim to be members of groups that get preference. Ever-increasingly, under the Democrats and under the RINOs, members of the following groups get preference: minority, female, younger, LGBTQ, veteran, non-Protestant, non-Italian American, non-German American, and those whose ancestors have not been in America for a long time. To give preference to one group is to discriminate against another group. Therefore, ever-increasingly, Democrats and RINOs discriminate against members of the following groups: White, male, older, heterosexual, non-veteran, Italian American, German American, and those whose ancestors have been in America for a long time. I should write a book about the aforesaid.

UNIVERSITY OF ILLINOIS CHICAGO
— UIC students, faculty and staff can report their experiences by using the Bias Reporting Tool (COMMENT: Ever-increasingly, Democrats, Libertarians, Greens, Independents, and RINOs promote bias if not hatred against Republicans who share Trump’s demographics: conservative, White, male, older, non-poor, married, gun owner, Protestant, German American, and/or those whose ancestors have been in America for a long time. I should write a book about the aforesaid in Wheaton, in Milton Township, in DuPage County, and in Illinois.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: In an effort to make UIC a place grounded in inclusion, equity, diversity and justice, UIC students, faculty and staff can report their experiences by using the Bias Reporting Tool. The Office of the Dean of Students, Office of Diversity and/or the Office for Access and Equity will follow up to offer support and resources to those who have reported bias, discrimination or harassment.

ILLINOIS STATE RIFLE ASSOCIATION
— The ISRA is Seeking Plaintiffs. Illinois Law Signed into Effect by Governor Pritzker Violates the Second Amendment. (COMMENT: Plaintiffs should be protected with restraining orders. Have you ever been an active member in a class action lawsuit? In 1988, when I was 40 years old, the lawyer who led a big class action lawsuit that charged GAO with reverse discrimination, age discrimination, and retaliation sought plaintiffs in all GAO’s offices. I was the only employee in GAO’s Chicago office who became an active member of that big class action lawsuit. My Democrat GAO Chicago office superiors retaliated against me viciously. For the rest of my GAO career, a) they kept me off audits of IRS, b) they gave me extremely unfair job assignments, performance expectations, and performance appraisals, c) they turned my supervisors, coworkers, subordinates against me, d) they assigned me to supervise the office’s most problematic employees, e) they always ranked me in the bottom half of my coworkers for pay-for-performance purposes, and f) they forced me to take their early retirement “offer” in 1997. Of course, the aforesaid discouraged my many Chicago office coworkers who were White, male, older, and/or non-veteran from joining the lawsuit with me even though many of them complained about reverse discrimination, age discrimination, and/or retaliation. Instead of joining the lawsuit with me, they “cut deals” with my Democrat GAO Chicago office superiors. I should write a book about the aforesaid.)

So far, my having lots of money in those banks for many years has not helped much.)
https://www.investopedia.com/terms/m/medallionsignatureguarantee.asp
(COMMENT: Normally, you can obtain a Medallion signature guarantee at a financial institution where you are a customer. The bank may assess a small charge for this service; fees can range from $0 for customers with solid, established relationships to upward of six figures. For financial institutions with on-site stamps, the stamp guarantee can be provided on the same day provided there are no outstanding requirements or errors. Otherwise, it could take between two and five business days for a review. Because the guaranteeing institution’s assets back the certification, a guarantee stamp is not easy to obtain.)

— Congresswoman Mary Miller Statement on Conservative Policy Victories in Speakership Negotiations
https://mchenrycountyblog.com/2023/01/08/take-on-u-s-house-speakership-fight/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Congresswoman Mary Miller (R-IL) released the following statement on the historic conservative victory to ensure the House of Representatives stops reckless spending and holds the Biden Administration accountable to the American people: “I promised my constituents that I would fight to change the status quo in the DC swamp, and thanks to 20 members who insisted on change, we can now celebrate a historic victory for the conservative movement despite intense pressure for us to give up and accept business as usual in Washington. After intense negotiations and hard work by House Freedom Caucus members and House Republican leadership, we changed the rules to ensure that a Republican-controlled House cannot betray conservatives the way that Senate Republicans did when they passed Joe Biden’s $1.7 trillion omnibus. With 40-year high inflation and $31 trillion in debt, we must save our country for our children and grandchildren. Our conservative policy package includes: The power to block an omnibus spending bill from the Senate; The power to eliminate waste by making direct budget cuts to the federal bureaucracy and spending caps to cut spending; A balanced federal budget over the next 10 years A “Church-style” Committee to Investigate the Weaponization of the Federal Government, including the Biden Department of Justice; A Southern Border Security Plan; The end of COVID mandates and funding for them; Requiring 72 hours to read a bill before the vote; The power for one member to call a vote for a new Speaker. I want to thank President Donald Trump, Freedom Caucus Chairman Scott Perry, Judiciary Committee Chairman Jim Jordan, and Speaker Kevin McCarthy for their work making this victory for the conservative movement and the American people possible. I look forward to working with the House Republican Conference to stop Joe Biden’s destructive, radical, leftist agenda!)

ILLINOIS REVIEW
— House GOP Leader Jim Durkin Resigning, Says Trump Republicans, 2nd Amendment and Pro-Life Issues “Dragged” GOP Down in Midterm Election (COMMENT: Ever-increasingly, Durkin in glorified and praised by hate-filled conservative-hating conservative-haters. I should write a book about how since 2000 the leaders of the following have treated conservatives, that is, how they have mistreated conservatives, that is, how they have dumped conservatives: Illinois House Republicans, Illinois Senate Republicans, Illinois Republican Party, DuPage County Republican Central Committee, and Milton Township Republican Organization. Ever-increasingly, Durkin makes it clear that he, like McCain, has always rejected many planks in the Republican Party platform.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: In media interviews after announcing his resignation as House GOP leader, State Rep. Jim Durkin attempted to place all of the blame on the 45th President of the United States Donald Trump. “As long as we continue to say that we are the party of Trump and that we have to abide by the party principles in the platform, 100% we’re gonna continue down this path of losing,” said Durkin. But pointing fingers and blaming others is exactly why Illinois House Republicans are in the super minority – and Durkin has no one else to blame but himself. And blaming the former President does nothing but distract from his own leadership failures. In announcing his resignation on Sunday, Durkin once again began pointing fingers, saying, “I hope that at some point in the near future, and I think we’re getting there, that the party breaks its fever of Donald Trump and understands and learns from the past. Some people will never get there.” But Durkin didn’t just stop there. “So I would just say the sooner that the public realizes that he’s not value added to the Republican Party, we can start looking at what this party used to be about. A party that didn’t insist upon this purity test. A party that is a fiscally conservative first of all, certainly, but we can have a fair and respectful debate within the party on issues related to the Second Amendment, to life and these other social issues, that have been dragging us down in areas that we have to compete in — mainly the suburbs and the collar counties.” To suggest that Second Amendment and pro-life issues are “dragging” the Republican party down is an insult – they are issues that make us Republicans in the first place. In the last week, Illinois Review has published several articles about Durkin using his political influence to target conservative grassroots candidates during the Illinois Primary. Sources also confirmed to Illinois Review that the IL GOP is blaming Durkin for the party’s postage discount abuse, where mailers “Paid for by the Republican Party of Illinois” were sent during the primary to viciously attack conservative Republican grassroots candidates that were challenging Durkin’s friends and political allies. Just a few days ago, Durkin was the only Republican to join the Democrats, voting in favor of the assault weapons ban. The legislation “immediately prohibits the manufacturing, possession, delivery, sales, and purchase of assault weapons” with a few exceptions – if you are a police officer or you are in the military. The Illinois Freedom Caucus sent a late night email urging conservatives to call Democrats and urge them to vote “No,” arguing that the Democrats admitted in committee that they did not consult with gun groups while drafting the legislation – including the Illinois State Rifle Association, who plans on filing a lawsuit when the bill becomes law. Durkin remains a close ally and best friend of IL GOP chairman Don Tracy. During the primary, Durkin was a supporter of Richard Irvin’s Republican campaign for governor, despite Irvin pulling Democratic Primary ballots in 2014, 2016 and 2020.)

https://www.nbcchicago.com/news/local/outgoing-illinois-house-gop-leader-jim-durkin-to-resign-from-legislature/3039792/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Falling short of that goal, Durkin was candid about his hope that the Illinois GOP and its base will see the losses up and down the ballot as an opportunity for a reckoning. “The party needs to hit the reset button and realize what happened again on Tuesday, that we cannot allow the far right fringe to control the party,” Durkin said Nov. 10. “If they continue, we will suffer losses at the same level we did this cycle, last cycle.” Durkin says those losses can be traced in large part to one person: former President Donald Trump.)

There are many people who feel very strong about those issues who would vote for Republicans.”)

I should write a book about how the leaders of the following since 2000 have treated conservatives, that is, how they have mistreated conservatives, that is, how they have dumped conservatives: Illinois House Republicans, Illinois Senate Republicans, Illinois Republican Party, DuPage County Republican Central Committee, and Milton Township Republican Organization.

(FROM THE ARTICLE: His psychiatric skills, he said, are no longer able to respond to an increasingly rightward Republican Party mindset, fostered by former President Donald Trump and his followers, that threatens to relegate the party to permanent minority status in the state. . .“The politics have changed. The party over the last at least six years has shifted,” he said. “The only way you can win in Illinois is that you’re going to have to just find the candidates that reflect the district. And we should not hold anyone to the 100% (party) purity test that some people in this party expect throughout the state.” . . . Durkin points the blame for the disastrous election results — particularly in the suburbs that were once a cornerstone of Illinois Republicanism — at a statewide GOP ticket led by gubernatorial candidate Darren Bailey, a state senator who leaned heavily on his evangelical Christianity in his campaign and who was endorsed by Trump. . . “We had some great (GOP House) candidates in the suburbs and collar counties and they were all painted (by Democrats) with the same brush, as being Trump sympathizers from a party of intolerance and extremists,” he said. “The Trump factor and Jan. 6 is something that’s not going away anytime soon. And that obviously was in many people’s minds when they talked about their fear for democracy.” Durkin said he thinks Republicans in Illinois will not be successful until the party distances itself from Trump and acknowledges both his role in the Jan. 6, 2021, insurrection at the U.S. Capitol and his 2020 election defeat to Democratic President Joe Biden. . .“I hope that at some point in the near future, and I think we’re getting there, that the party breaks its fever of Donald Trump and understands and learns from the past. Some people will never get there,” he said. “So I would just say the sooner that the public realizes that he’s not value added to the Republican Party, we can start looking at what this party used to be about. A party that didn’t insist upon this purity test. A party that is fiscally conservative first of all, certainly, but we can have a fair and respectful debate within the party on issues related to the Second Amendment, to life and these other social issues, that have been dragging us down in areas that we have to compete in — mainly the suburbs and the collar counties,” he said. . .A group of far-right Republican lawmakers known unofficially as the “Eastern Bloc,” of which Bailey was a member, chafed under policies expanding abortion and gay rights and also proposed legislation to make Chicago a separate state. “I can’t run a candidate in the western suburbs who’s going to win who is mirroring what someone says campaigning on in the Deep South,” Durkin said. “I just don’t think we should be promoting the 51st state in the collars and the suburbs when it certainly plays well downstate.” Durkin became friends with the late U.S. Sen. John McCain of Arizona, even serving as his Illinois director in the 2008 presidential campaign against home-state favorite Barack Obama. Durkin said McCain “would have figured a way to avoid” the Republican “mess” that led to the U.S. House taking 15 ballots before electing Rep. Kevin McCarthy of California speaker, and also “would have ensured that on Jan. 6, maybe something different, maybe something could have been averted.” “The John McCain I know would have gone outside of the Capitol and kicked the asses of the insurrectionists and Trump’s as well,” Durkin said. “He’s the statesman that this country needs.” . . .He and Durbin also developed a friendship. . .One of his last legislative votes was as the lone Republican to vote with Democrats to approve a ban on military-style firearms and large-capacity magazines. Durkin, who has long backed various gun control initiatives, said his vote not only represented his district’s beliefs but was a reflection of his years as a prosecutor.)

CHICAGO SUN-TIMES

https://chicago.suntimes.com/2023/1/8/23545889/departing-state-house-gop-leader-jim-durkin-giving-up-his-seat-in-illinois-general-assembly
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The Western Springs Republican in November said he was relinquishing his role as House minority leader, a largely thankless job as his party moved further to the right and the state moved further to the left. Despite his high-profile departure, Durkin in November told the Sun-Times that he wants moderate Republicans to soldier on. “The state wants people who are more to the middle. That’s why we have a bigger independent voting bloc, because of the extremes in both parties. Extremes on both sides dictate the primaries, and that’s what happens in the general elections,” Durkin said.)
— COMMENT: Ever-increasingly, Democrats a) glorify and praise RINOs and b) demonize, denigrate, and condemn conservatives, that is, platform Republicans, that is, Republicans as being hardliners.

(FROM THE ARTICLE: Miller disclosed the outlines of the sweeping agreement. Besides keeping the speaker on a short leash, her group will: Have the power to block the sort of omnibus bill the House and Senate — with GOP support — approved in one of the last major acts of the 117th Congress. Have the power to block an increase in the debt ceiling, with an impasse possibly leading to a government shutdown. Create, as Miller put it, a committee to “investigate the weaponization of the federal government, including the Biden Department of Justice.” Miller, a farmer, who represents the heavily Republican 15th Congressional District in southern Illinois, was raised in suburban Naperville and in November won her second term. She has served on the House Agriculture Committee and the House Education and Labor Committee, but she is best known for her activism fighting against abortion, gun control measures and other hot-button social issues.)

We wish him good luck on his future endeavors.” The Illinois Freedom Caucus is comprised of State Representatives Adam Niemerg (R-Dieterich); Chris Miller (R-Oakland); Brad Halbrook (R-Shelbyville); Blaine Wilhour (R-Beecher City) and Dan Caulkins (R-Decatur). The members of the Illinois Freedom Caucus are members of the Illinois General Assembly who are advocating for limited government, lower taxes and accountability and integrity in government.)

TOWNHALL
— Why RINOs Are RINOs – Rachel Alexander
https://townhall.com/columnists/rachelalexander/2023/01/09/why-rinos-are-rinos-n2618036
(FROM THE ARTICLE: RINOs always declare that they side with Democrats out of “principles,” and attack conservatives for the exact same reasons the left does; the usual vague claims that they’re offensive, too extreme and unelectable. But their assertion of being principled is a smokescreen. Ever notice how RINOs are always well off, well networked and have been around a long time as GOP establishment? It comes down to follow the money and who they know, but they’re too dishonest to admit it.)

— COMMENT: Democrats say Pritzker says “Hike cabinet pay to ‘bring, retain great people.” I was a federal employee for almost 30 years and I have been a federal retiree for more than 25 years. According to my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes, a) federal employees are grossly overpaid and b) federal pensions are far too generous. They hint/imply/argue/shout that bad pay and benefits are major reasons why they have never applied for a federal job, but the real reasons include: a) they cannot pass required employment examinations, b) they lack required education, professional certifications, and/or licenses, c) they cannot pass required background investigations, and/or d) they lack required work experience. I should write a book about my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes who would never be offered a federal job if they applied because of the aforesaid. I got and kept three federal jobs (Post Office Carrier/Clerk for almost 3 years, IRS Revenue Officer for almost 9 years, and GAO Analyst for almost 18 years) a) because I passed required employment examinations (Post Office employment examination, Federal Service Entrance Examination, CPA examination, and Certified Internal Auditor examination), b) because I had required education (high school diploma, bachelor’s degree in management and master’s degrees in business, accounting, and finance), professional certifications (CPA, Certified Internal Auditor, Certified Fraud Examiner, Certified Government Financial Manager, Certified Financial Services Auditor, and Forensic Accountant), and a CPA license, c) because I passed required background investigations, and d) because I had required work experience (almost 9 years working for IRS, the last 5 1/2 years of which at the GS-12 Step 1-5 Levels, currently $92,279-$104.583/year).

To give preference to one group is to discriminate against another group. Therefore, ever-increasingly, Democrats and RINOs discriminate against members of the following groups: White, male, older, heterosexual, non-veteran, Italian American, German American, and those whose ancestors have been in America for a long time. I should write a book about the aforesaid.

CITIES 92.9

https://www.cities929.com/2023/01/07/more-than-30700-mail-in-ballots-in-illinois-for-november-election-were-rejected/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: In DuPage County this past election, an election official was comparing mail-in ballot applications to verify signatures on the ballots, not the original voter signature on file with the county’s elections office. A lawsuit over the issue is pending. On Friday, the Illinois legislature further modified the mail-in balloting law. A Senate amendment to House Bill 45 makes changes to correct a drafting error in state law and make clarifications in various judicial circuits. The measure also strikes out of state elections law the requirement an election authority compares the signature of a mail-in ballot with the official voter file held by the county clerk.)

— Biden faces Israel quandary with new Netanyahu government – Matthew Lee (COMMENT: All of my many Jewish superiors and supervisors in the federal government were liberal. My Democrat superiors, supervisors, coworkers, and subordinates stressed to them that I was conservative, Republican, Protestant (baptized, raised, and confirmed as a Missouri Synod Lutheran), 100% German American, a Crete resident 1948-1972, and a Wheaton resident since 1978. Overwhelmingly, my superiors and supervisors in the federal government who took adverse actions against me were Jewish. I should write a book about that.)

In the Republican Party, Illinois Republican Party, DuPage County Republican Central Committee, and Milton Township Republican Organization, Democrat plant, Libertarian plant, Green plant, Independent plant, and RINO leaders would a) stop Republicans from running for offices and b) replace Republicans who got elected with Democrat plants, Libertarian plants, Green plants, Independent plants, and RINOs.)

— McCarthy’s Concessions to Freedom Caucus and What They Mean – Tom Ozimek (COMMENT: My anti-conservative and conservative-hating critics/opponents never tried to get concessions out of me. They just ended my service as a) the Wheaton Independence Day parades and fireworks Republican fundraiser, b) the TAPROOT Republicans of Illinois chairman, c) a Wheaton Chamber of Commerce Government Affairs Committee member, d) the Milton Township Republican Organization webmaster, e) an Illinois Center Right Coalition Steering Committee member, f) an American Association of Political Consultants Midwest Chapter board member, g) a GAO employee, h) etc.)
https://www.theepochtimes.com/mkt_app/mccarthys-concessions-to-freedom-caucus-and-what-they-mean_4968665.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: While it normally takes 218 votes—a majority of the House—to become speaker, that threshold can be reduced if members are absent or merely vote present. It’s precisely this maneuver that gave McCarthy his coveted win, as six Republicans voted “present” instead of “yea” in the final vote: Reps. Andy Biggs (R-Ariz.), Lauren Boebert (R-Colo.), Eli Crane (R-Ariz.), Matt Gaetz (R-Fla.), Bob Good (R-Va.), and Matt Rosendale (R-Mont.). In a 20-minute speech following the vote, McCarthy laid out his priorities for the 118th Congress, including securing the southern border, combating “woke” indoctrination in American schools, and unleashing domestic energy production. “We must get America back on track,” he said. “We’ll hold the swamp accountable.” The House now plans to vote on a hefty rules package, which includes a series of concessions that the 20 holdout Republicans pushed for. Some GOP strategists hailed the rule changes as a major win for the House Republicans Conference—the party caucus for Republicans in the House of Representatives—saying it marks the first time in decades that they have independent authority from leadership.)

What do major donors think of you? How do they treat you? Far too many major Republican donors reject far too many planks in the Republican Party platform and destroy those like me a) who they cannot manipulate/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. I should write a book about major Republican donors in Wheaton, in Milton Township, in DuPage County, and in Illinois.

Pritzker said Illinois was a sanctuary state. She is bad mouthing the Texas governor, who is dealing with thousands of migrants on a daily basis, but the Biden administration has caused this by the open border. It’s time to close the border and deport the people that came here illegally.

— Dan Crenshaw pitches solution to border crisis to unite Democrats and Republicans – Anna Giaritelli
https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/news/house/dan-crenshaw-solution-border-crisis-unite-democrats-republicans
(FROM THE ARTICLE: “Let’s solve the border crisis in one tweet. Instead of spending billions more on ‘processing,’ spend more money on jet fuel. Pack planes full of migrants who cross illegally and deport them immediately. The crisis will end within months,” Crenshaw wrote in a string of tweets Monday evening. “In summary: fund airplanes, holding facilities, immigration judges, ICE prosecutors, walls, and technology capable of detecting fentanyl. And stop the abuses of our asylum system. That’s what border security would look like,” he wrote. The approach breaks with House GOP Leader Kevin McCarthy’s (R-CA) proposal before the election, which ran along the lines of re-implementing a slew of Trump administration policies that Biden rescinded. Although Republicans and some Democrats have called on the Biden administration not to cease using a pandemic policy that allows illegal immigrants to be immediately sent back to Mexico, Crenshaw said approaches akin to Title 42 are flawed. “Why not just turn them away when they cross? Many have asked why Texas doesn’t do that. Because we have a river. Once they’re in the river, they’re within our jurisdiction. We can’t physically secure the Rio Grande. Even if we did turn them back, they’d cross somewhere else,” Crenshaw said. “So you need jet fuel. You need to be sending people far away from the border, thus making it unimaginable for someone to make the journey all the way north if they’re just gonna be sent back home.”)

WESTERN JOURNAL
— One Look at the Record Reveals the True Epicenter of Anti-Semitism – Richard Moss (COMMENT: I should write a book about the success that Democrat Chicago politicians had in forcing my many Jewish GAO, IRS, and Post Office superiors to take many adverse actions against me. They stressed that I was conservative, Republican, Protestant, 100% German American, a Crete resident 1948-1972, and a Wheaton resident since 1978. In my defense, I stressed that my grandfather on my father’s side fought the Germans in WWI, that my uncles on my mother’s side fought the Germans in WWII, and that my father would have fought the Germans in WWII if he had not been 4-F.)
https://www.westernjournal.com/op-ed-one-look-record-reveals-true-epicenter-anti-semitism/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: A cursory exam of the record will demonstrate that Trump is the most pro-Israel, pro-Jewish president we have ever had. . .The Palestinian Liberation Organization is a terrorist entity stained with Jewish and American blood. It pays stipends to families of terrorists responsible for killing Jews and is the most successful Jew-killing operation since World War II. Trump closed its diplomatic mission in Washington, D.C. Obama upgraded it. Obama also increased U.S. funding to the PLO while Trump cut it. Biden has reinstated it. The United Nations Relief and Works Agency is an anti-Semitic body that supports Hamas and indoctrinates young Palestinians to hate Jews. Trump stopped funding the organization while Obama expanded it. Trump pulled the U.S. out of the anti-Semitic UN Human Rights Council. Obama joined it, as did Biden. Obama spent 20 years in the Trinity Church of Jeremiah Wright, an anti-Semite and bigot. Wright and Obama were associates of black nationalist, racist and anti-Semite Louis Farrakhan, the leader of the Nation of Islam, who recently referred to Jews as “termites.” Farrakhan has spoken of his admiration of Hitler for killing millions of Jews (as has Hamas).)

— COMMENT: Democrats say “Time Is Running Out for Afghan Refugees.” When did time run out for you? Time ran out for me in 1973 when I was a 25-year-old White male non-veteran Republican IRS employee who had not made GS-13, currently $109,732/year. While I did make GS-12, currently $92,279/year, in 1974, my IRS career was over. My IRS superiors were under tremendous pressure from Democrat politicians to use Affirmative Action, Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion to hire, to retain, and promote Democrats who were minority, female, and/or younger. Because of that, they ignored, dismissed, belittled, and badmouthed my earning an MBA from Loyola in 1976 and my passing the CPA examination on my first attempt in 1979. Because of that, I successfully applied for a transfer from IRS to GAO in 1980.)

— COMMENT: Democrats say “Why Millennials Are Following Boomers to the South.” The Democrat Party platform promotes poverty and crime. Those who move to Republican areas to escape Democrats should consider the success that Democrats have had in invading, infesting, taking over, and destroying the once-Republican DuPage County, Milton Township, and Wheaton. Ever-increasingly, poverty and crime increases in DuPage County, Milton Township, and Wheaton. The closer that Democrat areas are to Republican areas and/or the more that those areas are connected with public transportation and/or major roads, the faster that Democrats will invade, infest, take over, and destroy those areas.

I would focus on those who lost elections and then blamed me for their losses. I would focus on those who had their operatives and their dupes take the most/biggest adverse actions against me. I am no longer the Republican fundraiser for Wheaton Independence Day parades and fireworks, the TAPROOT Republicans of Illinois chairman, a Wheaton Chamber of Commerce Government Affairs Committee member, a Milton Township Republican Organization (MTRO) webmaster, an Illinois Center Right Coalition (ICRC) Steering Committee member, or American Association of Political Consultants Midwest Chapter board member. I would focus on those who worked against my bid to fill a Wheaton City Council West District vacancy, gerrymandered my precinct, almost got ICRC to censure me for my GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters, and worked against my bid to serve as MTRO Treasurer.

— Firestone Tire and Rubber Company (COMMENT: Firestone Stores Chicago district office hired me in 1970 wan I was 21 years old. What if I had tried to stay a Firestone employee? My Chicago Heights Firestone Store boss talked and acted like he disproved of my following demographics: draft avoider, former union member, Crete resident since 1948, conservative, Republican, Protestant, German American, and someone whose ancestors have been in America for a long time. Before he would let me start, he forced me to pass a probationary period in Firestone’s store in Gary, Indiana. In 1971, when I gave him my 2-week notice that I had accepted a job offer from Oldsmobile, he rudely fired me. But after Oldsmobile withdrew that job offer saying that it had just agreed to stop hiring Whites to settle an EEOC complaint and I then accepted a job offer from IRS, he let me work part-time pumping gasoline until the end of 1972.)
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Firestone_Tire_and_Rubber_Company#Restructuring_and_sale_to_Bridgestone
(FROM THE POSTING: In late 1979, Firestone brought in John Nevin, the ex-head of Zenith Electronics, as president to save the hemorrhaging company from total collapse. It was more than a billion dollars in debt at the time and losing $250 million a year (equivalent respectively to $2.93 billion and $733 million in 2020[18]). Nevin closed nine of the company’s seventeen manufacturing plants, including six in one day, and relocated the company from its ancestral home in Akron to Chicago. He spun off non-tire related businesses, including the Firestone Country Club; it was considered a deliberate plan to boost the stock price, and it paid off. In 1988, after discussions with Pirelli, Nevin negotiated the sale of the company to the Japanese company Bridgestone, which was able to buy the company for much less than it had been worth a decade and a half earlier. The companies celebrated the 20th anniversary of the merger in 2008, and changed the name of the tire division to Bridgestone Americas Tire Operations, LLC. In 2012, Bridgestone Americas opened a $100 million (equivalent to $114 million in 2020 technical center in Akron.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: Again, reiterating the point that the establishment makes every time – that only money matters – and if you donate to the party, then you can say whatever you want. But Illinois Review recently has learned that 8 of the 17, or 48% of the state central committee members have not made any donation to the IL GOP. That’s worth repeating again. 48% of the state central committee members have not donated to the organization (IL GOP) for which they serve on the governing body. Here are some of those members, but not all of them.)

AMERICAN CONSERVATIVE
— Gay Old Time At Mar-A-Lago. The Christian Right MAGApalians’ favorite president just hosted a Log Cabin Republican gala at his Florida home, celebrated what he called ‘our movement.’ – Rod Dreher (COMMENT: I should write a book about LGBTQ-promoters who have taken the most/biggest adverse actions against me since 2000: past and present a) leaders of the Illinois Republican Party, DuPage County Republican Central Committee, and Milton Township Republican Organization, b) Republican leaders of Illinois, DuPage County, Milton Township, Wheaton, Wheaton Park District, and Wheaton Chamber of Commerce, c) Republican candidates on ballots in my precinct and their major donors, political consultants, fundraisers, pollsters, campaign managers, campaign staff members, and campaign volunteers, d) conservative leaders, and e) religious leaders.)
https://www.theamericanconservative.com/gay-old-time-at-mar-a-lago/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Hundreds of guests in tuxedos of all styles — sequined, quilted, velvet — and colorful gowns sipped on Trump-branded champagne and martinis. Between courses of steak and bite-sized Key lime pie, they danced to “YMCA” and “Macho Man,” the disco anthems at Trump rallies. Thursday night’s Log Cabin Republicans’ “Spirit of Lincoln” gala in the main ballroom of Donald Trump’s Mar-a-Lago beachfront club was a joyous celebration of gay rights and — in a case of ironic timing — the historic same-sex marriage law signed by President Joe Biden days earlier. The long-planned event in honor of the conservative LGBTQ organization’s 45th anniversary brought in Republican notables like former Ambassador Ric Grenell, Rep. Kat Cammack (R-Fla.), former State Department spokesperson Morgan Ortagus, who emceed the evening in a feathered turquoise gown, and former GOP gubernatorial candidate from Arizona Kari Lake, who was swarmed by guests eager to meet her and take a photo. But the main attraction, obviously, was Trump. He received a standing ovation after delivering an enthusiastic affirmation of gay rights not often heard in the GOP. “We are fighting for the gay community, and we are fighting and fighting hard,” the former president and 2024 candidate said. “With the help of many of the people here tonight in recent years, our movement has taken incredible strides, the strides you’ve made here is incredible.” Trump hosted a Mar-A-Lago party at which he identified the LGBT rights cause as “our movement”. [Apologies: I thought Morgan Ortagus was a man.] Somebody’s being made a fool of here, and I don’t think it’s the Log Cabin Republicans. Monsignor Johnny Rotten [sorry, misidentified him in first version] has a message for MAGApalians:)

I should write a book about those who have viciously demonized me, viciously denigrated me, and viciously condemned me the most because I did that. I accepted IRS’s job offer because I was unemployed and because I needed money to help support my mother and brother because my father had suddenly and recently died. I was unemployed because my Firestone Store boss had fired me because I had accepted a job offer from Oldsmobile. But Oldsmobile had withdrawn that job offer saying that it had just agreed to stop hiring Whites to settle an EEOC complaint.

U.S. NEWS & WORLD REPORT
— Home Security System Beliefs and Practices Survey 2022 – Taylor Sansano (COMMENT: As Democrats move in, crime increases.)
https://www.usnews.com/360-reviews/services/home-security-survey
(FROM THE ARTICLE: In 2021, there were nearly 620,000 burglaries in the United States alone. These burglaries added up to a whopping $737 billion in stolen property, with about $39 billion just in household goods. While these burglary rates are down 31% since 2020 and down 68% from 10 years ago, many American homeowners rely on home security systems – an industry that is projected to grow by 34% by 2026 in North America. Today’s home security systems come in many shapes and sizes, from video doorbells to wireless cameras, making them a more approachable solution for modern households. And with so many surveillance options comes a wide variety in how households use and think about their devices. According to our latest home security survey, which surveyed 2,000 U.S. adult home security system users who have home security cameras, self-protection was the leading reason why they installed security cameras. The second place answer was to deter criminals.)
