— Londrigan Responds to “Fake Reporter” Incident – SAM DUNKLAU
(DIERSEN: Of course my disgusting critics/opponents, their operatives, and
their dupes would paint me as being a clone of Nick Klitzing.)
https://www.nprillinois.org/post/londrigan-responds-fake-reporter-incident#stream/0
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Betsy
Dirksen Londrigan’s campaign called the incident “underhanded.” . . . Londrigan
says the stunt was in poor form. “Congressman Davis likes to go on
television and talk about civility in politics, all the while his campaign is
again engaging in an ongoing series of dishonest distractions,” she said.
Klitzing formerly worked on Governor Bruce Rauner’s campaign and served as the
state Republican Party Director for a time. According to WCIA TV, Klitzing says
he had received orders from higher-up campaign staffers. Davis campaign personnel
have crashed Londrigan events before. “Congressman Davis’ field director
showed up at one of my events drunk, and ended up getting arrested for
assaulting people,” Londrigan said, recounting an incident from 2018.
“It’s not the first time that somebody within the Davis campaign has
behaved in this manner.” . . . When asked if her campaign is revisiting
how it screens reporters for news conferences, Londrigan laughed and said it
would be a “good idea.”)

— A Vietnam veteran needed help. The government gave him a “bad paper”
discharge instead – EMMA DUMAIN AND TARA COPP (DIERSEN: As my critics/opponents,
their operatives, and their dupes hint/imply/argue/shout, the federal
government gave me a bad paper discharge. My Democrat GAO superiors forced me
to retire in 1997 when I was 49 years old, gave me unfair performance
expectations and appraisals, always ranked me in the bottom half of my
coworkers for pay-for-performance purposes, did not promote me beyond GS-13,
got rid of my mentor in 1987, kept me off audits of IRS for all but 3 of the
almost 18 years that I worked for GAO, and forced me to take a $19,568 (21%)
pay cut in today’s dollars to transfer from IRS to GAO in 1980. My Democrat IRS
superiors did not promote me beyond GS-12, disallowed my education deductions in
1978, got rid of my mentor in 1975, and disallowed my partial day per diem
claims in 1974. My Democrat Post Office superiors forced me resign in 1969 and
disallowed my sick leave requests in 1969 and 1968.)
