I passed the CPA examination on my first attempt in 1979. I passed the Certified Internal Auditor examination on my first attempt and became a licensed CPA in 1981. But by then, it was too late because of up-or-out, political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, age discrimination, religious discrimination, and national origin discrimination )

Outstandingly, 133 had the courage to cast a Republican primary ballot in my DuPage County Milton Township Precinct 59 in Wheaton.

— Rhode Island GOP party goes ‘all volunteer’ after executive director steps down. What that means. – PATRICK ANDERSON (COMMENT: Who is the conservative outreach/volunteer coordinator for the Illinois Republican Party?)
https://www.aol.com/ri-gop-party-goes-volunteer-191219620.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The Rhode Island Republican Party’s executive director has stepped down and, at least in the short term, will not be replaced. Jesus Solorio, who was hired as state GOP executive director in March 2022, announced Monday that he had left the party to form his own political consultancy. “It’s been an honor serving as the Rhode Island GOP executive director for the past two years,” Solorio wrote in a news release, which described the specialty of his new firm, Homan Street Strategies, as “empowering candidates with the precise tools and strategies needed to turn blue seats red.” During his time at the Rhode Island Republican Party, Solorio saw very few blue seats turn red in Rhode Island as Democrats maintained their grip on statewide offices and most city halls and commanding majorities in the General Assembly. State party Chairman Joe Powers Monday said the organization had “not put in a plan to fill the position straight away” and would be returning to the all-volunteer arrangement that was in place from 2018 until Solorio’s hiring in 2022. Solorio came to Rhode Island from Illinois, where he had been the Latino outreach/volunteer coordinator for then-candidate and future one-term governor Bruce Rauner before launching his own unsuccessful campaign for Congress. Solorio was alerted to the Rhode Island job by Ashley Kalus, a fellow Rauner campaign alum who won the Republican nomination for governor of Rhode Island in 2022, but lost to Gov. Dan McKee. More recently, Solorio came under pressure in January when the party struggled to collect the necessary signatures to get all Republican presidential candidates on the state primary ballot. The four Republicans challenging presumptive GOP nominee Donald Trump did ultimately qualify for the primary ballot.)

Sixty-three percent of new audits last year were aimed at middle-class filers. – Editorial (COMMENT: My Democrat IRS superiors disallowed my education deductions in 1978 when I was a 29 year old $106,785/year (in today’s dollars) Revenue Officer mainly because I had complained about political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, religious discrimination, and national origin discrimination, but also because I had avoided the draft and because I was a White male and that did not help them meet their Affirmative Action quotas. They outrageously and falsely argued that the graduate Loyola business and DePaul accounting courses I deducted were not related to my job duties, did not maintain or improve my job skills, qualified me for a new trade or business, and were taken by me to get a job in the private sector. They outrageously and falsely ignored/dismissed/belittled that fact that the employee manual they gave me encouraged me to take the courses, the content of my position descriptions, and the reasons I gave for my taking the courses in my Loyola and DePaul applications. I should write a book about the aforesaid.)

https://cis.org/Bensman/Florida-Gateway-Data-Shows-Most-Migrant-Flights-Landing-Gov-DeSantiss-Sunshine-State
(FROM THE ARTICLE: President Joe Biden’s Department of Homeland Security (DHS) refuses to publicly identify the dozens of U.S. international airports for which it has approved direct flights from abroad for certain inadmissible aliens. At least 386,000 migrants through February have been allowed to fly to interior U.S. airports as part of a legally dubious admissions program the administration launched in October 2022. The rationale for the program is to “reduce the number of individuals crossing unlawfully” over the southern border — by flying them over it directly into the interior and then releasing them on parole.)

He said it’s irresponsible to discuss such a program without knowing how much it will cost taxpayers. “My understanding is that you would have to be a person with a child, or caring for someone in your home or in school to be eligible for the benefits. That could be millions of people and the cost could be in the tens of billions of dollars,” Buehler told The Center Square. “And where’s the state going to come up with these funds and the only place to come up with that is to get it from the taxpayers.” Pilot guaranteed income programs in Chicago and the Metro East St. Louis areas are ongoing, costing taxpayers millions.)

— U.N. Chief Demands Slavery Reparations After ‘Generations of Discrimination’ – SIMON KENT (COMMENT: Are you White, male, older, non-poor, Protestant, and/or German American? How long have your ancestors been in America? From what I see, under the Democrats and under the RINOs, the more of the aforesaid that you are and the longer that your ancestors have been in America, the more reparations that Democrats and RINOs are going to make you pay. I am all of the aforesaid and my ancestors have been in America since 1844. In my defense, they have always lived in northeast Illinois, were never in a position to discriminate against anyone, and never did discriminate against anyone. In my defense, I have paid lots of reparations already and I continue to pay lots of reparations. Affirmative Action (AA) and DEI are reparations. My Democrat superiors in the federal government used AA and DEI to give promotions that I should have gotten to my Democrat coworkers who were minority, female, younger, had less money than I did, non-Protestant, and/or non-German American. They all 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. In 1997, when I was 49 years old, they forced me to take their early retirement “offer” and gave my job and my preferred corner office to my Black subordinate.)

I share the following demographics with Trump: conservative, Republican, White, male, older, married, non-poor, draft-avoider, gun-owner, Protestant, German American, and our ancestors have been in America for a long time. Ever since 2015, hate-filled Trump-hating Trump-haters have taken more and more and more adverse actions against me.

— Retired grandmother still owes $108,000 in student debt 40 years after taking out loan. – Mike Lowe (COMMENT: Did you take out a student loan? I did not even try because I would not have gotten one. I only just barely made it into the upper 20% of my high school class and my ACT score was only 24. Further, 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. 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. I demonstrated no leadership potential because I was a part-time dishwasher during my junior and senior years in high school and a full-time dishwasher during the summer in between. So because of the aforesaid and because my parents lacked money, I worked my way through college. But because I worked too many hours, my GPA suffered. I would not have been able to graduate debt-free from NIU with a bachelor’s degree in management in 1970 if I had not worked all the part-time hours that I could for the Park Forest Post Office 1966-1969 and if my parents had not provided me with room and board while I completed courses at UIC 1966-1968, weekends during my first semester at NIU in 1969, and the summer of 1969. I acknowledge that I would not have had to work so many hours washing dishes and delivering mail if I had not used what I earned to buy a new cars in 1966, 1967, and 1968, but I used those cars to get to/from work and classes.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: In 1986, Nancy Peter took out a student loan to finish her psychology degree at Mundelein College in Chicago. Almost four decades later, she’s still paying it back. “The interest compounds and compounds, so every penny I don’t pay, it goes sky high,” she said. Peter took out another loan to go to graduate school at Loyola University and has worked as a therapist for nearly 40 years. But the now 71-year-old retired grandmother of two owes six-figures, more than triple the initial amount of money she borrowed. . .According to the U.S. Department of Education, 43 million Americans owe a collective $1.3 trillion in student loan debt. The average borrower owes $37,000. “This will sound terrible,” Peter said. “But I have a paper of different ways you can have your loan forgiven, and the only one I fit into was I would have to die.” Last year, the U.S. Supreme Court struck down the Biden administration’s plan to forgive hundreds of billions of dollars in student loan debt.)

— Biden loves HIS gas-guzzler (1967 Corvette). Why doesn’t he get that Americans love THEIRS? – Rich Lowry (COMMENT: I have owned my 1972 Corvette since October 14, 1971.)
https://nypost.com/2024/03/26/opinion/ev-pushing-joe-biden-knows-gas-powered-cars-are-still-tops/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: One of Joe Biden’s notable digressions when getting deposed by special counsel Robert Hur was about driving his beloved 1967 Corvette Stingray convertible. Which wasn’t surprising — the president genuinely loves his car. And why not? It’s a thing of beauty and, for its time, was a splendid feat of engineering. A paradox of the Biden administration is that the old-school car enthusiast is — in the name of the future and saving the planet — waging a war on the internal-combustion-engine cars that he so admires and that have helped define American life over the last 100 years. The internal-combustion-engine automobile ranks as one of the modern world’s most transformative innovations. Prior to the advent of trains, travel by land was an absolute misery, even for the wealthy and privileged. Then the car, in effect, took the train and put it in the hands of individuals. It was a revolutionary leap ahead for personal freedom and mobility. It changed where we live (catalyzing the growth of the suburbs) and how we work (making it easier to commute). It obviously made it possible to go more places and gave rise to new types of business catering to a newly footloose population, including motels and fast-food restaurants. It knit the country together via a road network that facilitated untold economic activity and created the auto-manufacturing industry, as well as industries providing parts and fuel for cars. To an unusual extent, people feel bonded to their cars. There are car enthusiasts but not enthusiasts for other 20th-century implements that changed our way of life. No one speaks wistfully of the refrigerator they owned 40 years ago or reads fan magazines devoted to plumbing. Even for consumers who aren’t car devotees, what to buy is an intensely personal decision; this is why there is a dizzying array of brands offering an immense range of choices. The Biden administration’s push to get people into electric vehicles is running directly into the chief advantage of internal-combustion-engine cars, which is the sheer convenience. People don’t really have “range anxiety,” the fear their electric vehicle will run out of its charge. Electric cars have acquired more range now, and most people aren’t driving 300 miles in a single trip, regardless. No, it’s the time it takes to charge an electric car compared with the ease of a trip to the gas station that is the issue. Gas stations already exist (about 145,000 of them with a million gas pumps), and no one had to subsidize their creation. They are convenient and cost-effective and make economic sense. Making charging stations available on a comparable scale will present formidable obstacles. As Mark Mills of the National Center for Energy Analytics points out in a paper on electric cars, transporting the large amounts of energy at the necessary scale using electric energy via wires and transformers is much more expensive than doing it with oil via pipelines and tanks. Installing the superchargers necessary to make charging somewhat rapid — but still slower than gassing up — will require “a grid power demand comparable to a small town or steel mill.” This isn’t to say electric cars aren’t attractive to some consumers, especially those with their own garages for overnight charging and the resources to spend on a fun, interesting second or third car. Tesla has made major inroads in the upscale category. Good for it. More choice is better. An all-electric-car future is very far off, though, and internal-combustion-engine automobiles aren’t embarrassing artifacts of the past. Their cost, convenience, reliability, and size — more than half of automobiles sold in America are SUVs — make them hugely appealing. They are also getting constant upgrades. According to Mills, since 1975, “the average automobile today has 100 more horsepower, weighs 1,000 pounds more, and has doubled in fuel efficiency.” Joe Biden’s Corvette is now an antique, but the basic technology is as important, and incredibly user-friendly, as ever.)

— ‘Ronna McDaniel will not be an NBC News contributor,’ NBCUniversal News Group chairman announces. – ALEX NITZBERG (COMMENT: What opposition have you had to face? I should write a book about the tremendous opposition that I faced from my Democrat GAO superiors, supervisors, coworkers, and subordinates when I transferred from IRS to GAO in 1980 when I was 31 years old. They forced me to suffer a $22,966/year (21%) pay cut in today’s dollars to transfer. I faced tremendous opposition mainly because I was a conservative Republican who opposed political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, and age discrimination, but also because I did not help GAO meet any of its Affirmative Action quotas and because I did not start my career with GAO like almost all of them did and because I transferred in with almost 12 years of federal seniority. They were furious when I completed the requirements for a master’s degree in accounting from DePaul in 1980, I passed the Certified Internal Auditor examination on my first attempt in 1981, and I became a licensed CPA in 1981. I had passed the CPA examination on my first attempt in 1979 and I had earned an MBA from Loyola in 1976. GAO audits IRS. I had worked for IRS for almost 9 years, the last 5 1/2 years of which at the GS-12 Step 1-5 Levels, currently $97,079-$110,020/year. They wasted my knowledge of IRS. They did not assign me to audits of IRS for 6 years. But then, after just 3 years, they threw me off audits of IRS.)

— NBC facing internal upheaval after Ronna McDaniel hire: ‘What does she bring NBC News?’ – JACKSON WALKER (COMMENT: What opposition have you had to face? I should write a book about the tremendous opposition that I faced from my Democrat GAO superiors, supervisors, coworkers, and subordinates when I transferred from IRS to GAO in 1980 when I was 31 years old. They forced me to suffer a $22,966/year (21%) pay cut in today’s dollars to transfer. I faced tremendous opposition mainly because I was a conservative Republican who opposed political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, and age discrimination, but also because I did not help GAO meet any of its Affirmative Action quotas and because I did not start my career with GAO like almost all of them did and because I transferred in with almost 12 years of federal seniority. They were furious when I completed the requirements for a master’s degree in accounting from DePaul in 1980, I passed the Certified Internal Auditor examination on my first attempt in 1981, and I became a licensed CPA in 1981. I had passed the CPA examination on my first attempt in 1979 and I had earned an MBA from Loyola in 1976. GAO audits IRS. I had worked for IRS for almost 9 years, the last 5 1/2 years of which at the GS-12 Step 1-5 Levels, currently $97,079-$110,020/year. They wasted my knowledge of IRS.)

— DEI is destroying America – Editorial
https://nypost.com/2024/03/25/opinion/dei-is-destroying-america-why-the-classics-are-back-and-other-commentary/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: “Diversity/equity/inclusion” is the common thread behind “America’s current crises,” argues Victor Davis Hanson at American Greatness. DEI has “birthed” resurgent crime and antisemitism. The “military is short” soldiers, because “white males” fear being called “white supremacists” if they join. Outcries over “the destruction of enforcement” of immigration law are “written off as racism.” Nations like China and the Soviet Union suffered enormously after substituting “race, sex, class, and tribal criteria for meritocracy,” while the smaller, less “materially rich” United States “emerged to dominate the world.” “Yet here we are in 2024, ignoring the baleful past.” America’s future now “hinges on how quickly we discard DEI orthodoxy” and “judge citizens on their character and talent” — if it’s not “already too late.”)

My critics/opponents have never had to take bad jobs, but I had to.

He could have sought my help to reform GAO but he did not. In 1997, I was one of the few remaining Republican GAO employees. I had worked for GAO as an Analyst for almost 18 years, the last 11 years of which at the GS-13 Step 1-10 Levels, currently $115,439-$150,075/year. I had been an active member in a class action lawsuit that charged GAO with reverse discrimination, age discrimination, and retaliation since I turned 40 in 1988. In 1989, I fully briefed Henry Hyde about the tremendous political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, and age discrimination in GAO.)

Through 1997, my money came from what I earned auditing federal agencies for GAO in Chicago 1980-1997, collecting delinquent taxes for IRS in Chicago, Harvey, and Joliet 1971-1980, pumping gasoline for the Firestone Store in Chicago Heights 1971-1972, selling tires, automotive services, and major appliances for that store 1970-1971, working on an assembly line for Chrysler in Belvidere in 1970, delivering mail for the Park Forest Post Office 1966-1969, pumping gasoline for John’s Sinclair and chipping slag for Thrall Car in Chicago Heights and cleaning golf shoes for the Flossmoor Country Club in 1966, washing dishes for the S.S. Kresge in Chicago Heights 1964-1966, delivering newspapers in Crete 1962-1966, and doing yard work in Crete 1962-1964. Since 1997, my money has come from my Civil Service Retirement System pension, Social Security, and inheritance.)

— Democrat Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson suggests Trump voters to blame for failure of city’s tax hike referendum. The ‘Bring Chicago Home’ real estate transfer tax referendum promised to bring in $100 million annually to combat the homeless crisis. – Joseph A. Wulfsohn (COMMENT: How much success have Democrat and RINO leaders had stereotyping Trump voters in your precinct, in tour township, and in your county, that is, how much success have they had demonizing, denigrating, and condemning them? I should write a book about the success that Democrat and RINO leaders have had demonizing, denigrating, and condemning the 90 Trump voters in my precinct, the 5,555 in Milton Township, and the 36,246 in DuPage County.)
(FROM THE ARTICLE: According to the Chicago Board of Election Commissioners’ website, there were roughly 37,000 total Republican primary voters who turned out for Tuesday’s primary. Roughly 29,000 of those cast their ballot for Trump, who earned 78.5% support.)

— Class Warfare Failure Reveals Opposition To Illegal Immigration – Scott Hogenson (COMMENT: From what I see, the more money that your parents have/had, the more illegal immigration that you want. How much money did your parents have? Because my parents lacked money, for me to buy cars and to pay for my college expenses, I a) did yard work 1962-1964, b) delivered newspapers 1962-1966, c) washed dishes 1964-1966, d) cleaned golf shoes, chipped slag, and pumped gasoline in 1966, and e) delivered mail 1966-1969. If there had been as many illegals back then as there are now, they would have gotten the jobs that I got. If I still would have gotten those jobs, my salaries would have been lower because illegals drive salaries down.)

https://news.wttw.com/2024/03/21/chicago-officials-slowly-evicting-migrants-city-shelters-johnson-resists-pressure-reverse
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Chicago officials evicted 15 migrants from city shelters through Wednesday, far fewer than expected less than a week ago, as Mayor Brandon Johnson resisted new calls to reverse course. Since city officials began enforcing the 60-day limit on shelter stays imposed by Johnson, eight people were evicted on Sunday and Monday, with another seven evicted on Wednesday, according to city data. It was unclear whether anyone would be evicted Thursday. The most recent evictions came on the same day that Ald. Andre Vasquez (40th Ward), the chair of the City Council’s Committee on Immigrant and Refugee Rights, renewed his call for the mayor to scrap the limit entirely and step up efforts to care for the men, women and children who made their way to Chicago from the southern border. “The city should not be in the business of handing out evictions,” Vasquez said Wednesday morning. “No one in need of shelter, whether they are newly arrived or whether they were born and raised here, should ever face the fear and instability of being evicted from a city shelter knowing they have nowhere else to go.”)

— How much pressure and from who is your Republican Precinct Committeeman under to dump the personal responsibility, traditional marriage and family, right to life, immigration, illegal drugs, Second Amendment, and/or equal opportunity (no race or gender based preference giving) planks in the Republican Party platform? Since 1999, I have been under ever-increasingly more such pressure. I should write a book about that. I would stress that in my DuPage County Milton Township Precinct 59 in Wheaton, Trump got 86 votes while Haley got only 32.

— Is Chicago’s tepid turnout a ‘warning sign’ for President Joe Biden in November? Whether the city’s low voter turnout on Tuesday is a sign of apathy or dissatisfaction, Gov. J.B. Pritzker and key Democrats are downplaying the significance for President Joe Biden. But one leading pollster calls it a warning bell for other key Democratic cities: ‘These cities need to be engines of turnout.’ – Tina Sfondeles

AMERICANS FOR TAX REFORM
— Few Americans Want to Work for Biden’s IRS (COMMENT: Potential IRS employees who are Republican, White, male, and/or non-veteran should be advised that IRS will waste their career and get rid of them if they do not make GS-13 ($115,439) by age 25, GS-14 ($136,414) by age 30, GS-15 ($160,458) by age 35, and Senior Executive Service ($191,900) by age 40 and that extremely few IRS employees make the aforesaid promotion deadlines. IRS offered me a GS-7 (currently $54,728) job as a Revenue Officer in 1971 when I was 22 because IRS could not find a qualified Democrat, minority, female, and/or veteran who would take the job. I had had earned a bachelor’s degree in management and passed the Federal Service Entrance Examination in 1970. I accepted the offer because I was unemployed. My Firestone Store boss had rudely fired me because I had accepted a job offer from Oldsmobile. But Oldsmobile withdrew that offer saying that it had just agreed to stop hiring Whites to settle an EEOC complaint. IRS could not offer me a job as a Revenue Agent because I had not taken enough accounting courses.)
https://www.atr.org/few-americans-want-to-work-for-bidens-irs-oddly-enough/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The official IRS watchdog released a report last week noting the IRS is not attracting qualified applicants for its “revenue generating” positions. In a March 11, 2024 report the Treasury Inspector General for Tax Administration wrote: “Additionally, the external applications that have been received are far below the IRS targeted goal and there is an overall shortage of individuals with the desired background and experience, which has created further challenges in hiring.” And as noted by Government Executive magazine, referencing an Aug. 2023 TIGTA report: IRS had planned to bring on 3,833 revenue agents in fiscal 2023, but in the first six months officials had recruited just 34. Perhaps Americans are not attracted to employment with an agency that got caught illegally backdating penalty documents and signatures; an agency that got caught intentionally destroying 30 million tax forms submitted by taxpayers attempting to resolve their taxes; an agency unwilling or unable to protect sensitive personal information.)

https://www.wsj.com/us-news/angela-chao-was-well-over-alcohol-limit-at-time-of-deadly-texas-crash-fd0305bd
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Global shipping executive Angela Chao had nearly three times the legal limit of alcohol in her system when she drove a Tesla into a pond and drowned in Texas, according to a law-enforcement report released Wednesday that concluded her death was an “unfortunate accident.” The chief executive of Foremost Group died Feb. 11 after putting her car in reverse and driving into the pond on her Texas ranch in Johnson City, according to the report by the Blanco County Sheriff’s Office. A toxicology test on Chao showed a blood alcohol concentration level of 0.23, the report said. The legal limit is 0.08 in Texas. While Chao was over the Texas limit for driving on public roads, her alcohol level at the time of death isn’t considered against the law because she was driving on private property, said Chief Deputy Robert Woodring with the sheriff’s office.)

— The headlines should be “Trump crushes Haley.” With 97% of the precincts reporting, Trump got 469,586 votes statewide while Haley got only 83,525. With 100% of the precincts reporting, Trump got 35,944 votes in DuPage County while Haley got only 10,702 and Trump got 5,517 votes in Milton Township while Haley got only 2,330. What does that say to the leaders of the Illinois Republican Party (IRP), DuPage County Republican Central Committee, and Milton Township Republican Organization? What does that say to the IRP State Convention Platform and Resolution Committee? It says that Illinois Republican voters reject Haley’s anti-Trumpism and that they reject “Democrat Lite.” What does Trump want to see in the new RNC platform and in the new IRP platform? I am on the IRP State Convention Platform and Resolutions Committee. – Dave Drersen

— How many cast Republican primary ballots in your precinct? How many votes did Trump and Haley get in your precinct? 128 (35%) of the 370 registered Republican voters in my DuPage County Milton Township Precinct 59 in Wheaton cast Republican primary ballots. Trump got 86 votes while Haley got only32 votes. The rest of the races were uncontested. In those races, State’s Attorney Berlin was the high vote getter with 115. I got 109 votes. There is at least 1 registered Republican voter in 224 homes and 4 apartments in my precinct. – Dave Diersen

— Of course, for the November 5, 2024 general election, I want to help elect those candidates who won the Republican primary in my precinct. Those candidates are Donald Trump, John Booras, Amy Grant, Bob Berlin, Jaye Wang, Bob Grogan, Richard Jorgensen, Nicole Prater, Annette Corrigan, Jeff Caste, Kenton Skarin, Jason Helland, and John Costello. But according to my critics/opponents, I am far too conservative and my demographics are terrible, and because of that, the more that I do to help elect candidates in general elections, the fewer votes that those candidates will get. If you were me, how would you deal with that? My critics/opponents reject the personal responsibility, traditional marriage and family, right to life, immigration, illegal drugs, Second Amendment, and/or equal opportunity (no race or gender based preference giving) planks in the Republican Party platform. My critics/opponents had their operatives and their dupes end my service as the Republican fundraiser for Wheaton Independence Day parades and fireworks in 2021. – Dave Diersen

TEXAS TRIBUNE
— Texas GOP chair Matt Rinaldi won’t seek reelection. Rinaldi’s three-year tenure as chair of the GOP saw vicious infighting and historic gains for the state’s far right. – ROBERT DOWNEN (COMMENT: I should write a book about how the Illinois Republican Party has become more and more and more “Democrat Lite,” that is, more and more and more anti-conservative, that is, more and more and more anti-Republican.)
https://www.texastribune.org/2024/03/15/matt-rinaldi-texas-republican-chair-reelection/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Republican Party of Texas Chair Matt Rinaldi announced Friday that he will not seek reelection, ending a three-year tenure that was marked by an escalating GOP civil war, white supremacy scandal and historic 2024 primary gains for the party’s right wing. “After almost three years serving as Chairman, traveling the state and spending many long nights on the road, it is time for me to focus on my obligations as a husband to my wife, Corley, and as a father to my six-year-old son, Rush,” Rinaldi said in a Friday afternoon statement. “I ran for State Chairman on a platform of growing the party, increasing its influence and making it one that effectively amplifies the voice of grassroots Republicans. I am happy to report we were successful on all accounts.” Rinaldi has chaired the Texas GOP since 2021, when he was elected by the party’s executive committee to replace outgoing Chair Allen West. He was then reelected by delegates of the 2022 state GOP convention. His announcement comes amid an ongoing civil war between the Texas GOP’s far-right and more moderate, but still deeply conservative, wings. Rinaldi has been a key player in that fight as chairman, often accusing more moderate Republicans such as House Speaker Dade Phelan of being insufficiently conservative. A staunch ally of the party’s far-right wing and its billionaire funders, Rinaldi was particularly active in the 2024 primary elections, in which a dark-red wave swept many House incumbents out of office. Rinaldi noted the outcomes of the 2024 primaries in his Friday announcement, calling it a “political earthquake” that elevated “grassroots members” above “lobbyists, office holders and corporate donors.” Rinaldi also vowed in his statement to help elect his successor at this year’s state GOP convention. Minutes after Rinaldi announced his retirement, Abraham George announced he would run for party chair. Rinaldi — as well as Attorney General Ken Paxton and other Rinaldi allies — then endorsed George, who lost in his 2024 primary to Rep. Candy Noble, R-Lucas, by 5 percentage points. George will now face current Texas GOP Vice Chair Dana Myers to lead the party. Reaction to Rinaldi’s announcement was mixed — and emblematic of the Texas GOP’s internal strife. Paxton called him “tremendous,” and Rep. Nate Schatzline, R-Fort Worth, praised Rinaldi for “helping reform the party” before urging Republicans to support George’s run for chair. Others said his departure is an opportunity for the Texas GOP to change course. “While I wish Matt all the best, make no mistake that this is a great and welcomed opportunity for us to elevate and elect a conservative leader who will be laser-focused on uniting all Republicans around our shared mission of defeating liberals up and down the ballot in every corner of the state,” Rep. Jeff Leach, a Plano Republican and Rinaldi nemesis, told The Texas Tribune. Leaders of the Texas Democratic Party also blasted Rinaldi in a Friday evening statement, accusing him of “plunging the party into the depths of MAGA extremism” and “leading the charge to defund public education, curtail voting rights and restrict reproductive healthcare decisions for Texans.” Rinaldi served two terms in the House representing HD 115, north of Dallas, before losing in the 2018 general election to Rep. Julie Johnson, D-Farmers Branch. As a legislator, he was a reliable ally of the state’s far right and Tim Dunn and Farris Wilks, two West Texas oil billionaires who also bankrolled Rinaldi’s career in the House. Rinaldi was perhaps best known for calling immigration authorities on protesters during a House proceeding on a bill that cracked down on so-called “sanctuary cities.” As party chair, Rinaldi routinely amplified attacks against Phelan and other more-moderate members, castigating the speaker for allowing Democrats to chair a handful of House committees and accusing him of being drunk while presiding over House business last year. He also offered key support to Paxton during last year’s impeachment proceedings, and blasted Phelan and other House Republicans in the wake of Paxton’s acquittal by the Texas Senate. As the civil war escalated in the last months of 2023, some in the Texas GOP worried that Rinaldi had made the party too reliant on contributions from Dunn and Wilks. Rinaldi’s decision to endorse and campaign for challengers to fellow Republicans during this year’s primaries also drew the ire of some in the Texas GOP who said party leaders should be more neutral. Tensions over Rinaldi’s chairmanship came to a head late last year, following a scandal involving white supremacists and antisemites in the Texas GOP. In October, The Texas Tribune reported that Jonathan Stickland, then the leader of Dunn and Wilks’ main political action committee, Defend Texas Liberty, had hosted prominent white supremacist and Adolf Hitler admirer Nick Fuentes for several hours. Rinaldi was also spotted outside the office building while Fuentes was inside, but denied knowing he was there and said he would never meet with Fuentes. The meeting prompted Phelan and 60 other GOP House members to demand that fellow Republicans redirect donations from Defend Texas Liberty to pro-Israel charities. Roughly half of the Texas GOP’s executive committee also called on the party to cut ties with Defend Texas Liberty. Amid the scandal — and subsequent reporting by the Tribune that uncovered deeper ties between white supremacists and Defend Texas Liberty — Rinaldi routinely attacked the PAC’s critics, including Phelan. Earlier this year, the Tribune reported that Rinaldi was simultaneously working as an attorney for Wilks, one of Defend Texas Liberty’s two main funders. Responding to the scandals in November, the Texas GOP’s executive committee narrowly defeated a measure that would have banned the party from associating with Holocaust deniers, neo-Nazis and antisemites. Myers, the party’s VP who is running to replace Rinaldi, supported the measure. Rinaldi did not vote, but downplayed the need for it by saying that antisemitism was only a problem on the left. A watered-down version of the measure was adopted earlier this year. Dunn and Wilks meanwhile spun off a new political action committee, Texans United For a Conservative Majority, that backed a slate of successful candidates in the 2024 GOP primaries — giving the billionaires perhaps more power than ever over the Texas GOP and state Legislature.)
