I would focus on a) past and present leaders of the Illinois Republican Party, DuPage County Republican Central Committee, and Milton Township Republican Organization, b) past and present Republican leaders of Illinois, DuPage County, Milton Township, Wheaton, Wheaton Park District, and Wheaton Chamber of Commerce, c) conservative and religious leaders, d) Republican candidates on ballots in my precinct, their political consultants, major donors, fundraisers, pollsters, campaign managers, campaign staff members, and campaign volunteers, and e) those who I have sued.

Students in schools with middle class students also received fewer Ds and Fs, a disparity that widened during the pandemic, WBEZ found. – Sarah Karp (COMMENT: My critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes have always painted my parents as being filthy rich because a) I took college preparatory courses in high school, b) I graduated in the top 20% of my high school class, and c) my ACT was 24.

— ViacomCBS Executives Sued for Racial Discrimination, Allegedly Stereotyped Employee as ‘Dumb Latina’ – DAVID NG (COMMENT: It was more difficult for my Democrat superiors, supervisors, coworkers, and subordinates in the federal government to negatively stereotype me because I had earned a) a job-related bachelor’s degree when I was 21 in 1970 and job-related master’s degrees when I was 27, 31, and 48, b) job-related professional certifications when I was 30, 32, 41, 45, 47, and 48, and c) a job-related professional license when I was 32. Because of that, they did more to negatively stereotype my demographics: White, male, old (born in 1948), draft avoider, conservative, Republican, heterosexual, married since 1978, non-poor, gun owner, baptized, raised, and confirmed as a Missouri Synod Lutheran, 100% German American, Crete resident 1972-1948, Wheaton resident since 1978, and my ancestors had been in America since 1844.)

https://thehill.com/regulation/court-battles/585593-supreme-court-denies-appeal-by-wisconsin-conservative-think-tank
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The case arose in 2019 after Evers did not invite members of the MacIver Institute to a background briefing on budgetary matters that was attended by some two dozen members of the press who cover the governor. The MacIver Institute filed a federal lawsuit alleging the group had been denied press access due to their conservative viewpoint, in violation of the First Amendment. Evers countered that the law permits reasonable restrictions on access to official events, and that his office’s denial of press credentials to the think tank was not done because of the group’s viewpoint. In March 2020, a federal judge in Wisconsin sided with Evers, finding that the governor had “reasonably concluded that MacIver is not a bona fide news organization.”)
