(FROM THE ROUNDUP: U.S. Representative Mike Bost (IL-12) today announced that his re-election campaign has been endorsed by 22 Republican Central Committee leaders from across the 12th Congressional District. Bost’s coalition of support includes the State Central Committeewoman and Deputy State Central Committeeman for IL-12, as well as 21 Republican county chairs. This newest list of Republican endorsements comes just days after Bost announced support from over 100 local GOP leaders. “These GOP Central Committee chairs know how much work went into turning Southern Illinois into the Republican stronghold it is today,” said Bost. “And they know we put it all at risk when conservatives start attacking each other rather than taking it to Biden and the liberals who are trying to defeat our values. I appreciate the overwhelming support of our local party leaders and will continue working with them to preserve the strong, unified, conservative movement that has served our region so well.”)

— The government class gets guaranteed raises, benefits, pensions…all paid for by ordinary Illinoisans that get none of that (COMMENT: I worked for the federal government for almost 30 years. I should write a book about my critics/opponents who have used that against me the most. I would not have become a federal employee if my high school friend had not asked me to take the Post Office employment test with him in Harvey in 1966. I would not have taken the Federal Service Entrance Examination in 1970 if I had not been a postal employee. I would not have accepted IRS’s job offer in 1971 if I had not been fired by Firestone because I had accepted a job offer from Oldsmobile and if Oldsmobile had not withdrawn that job offer saying that it had just agreed to stop hiring Whites to settle an EEOC complaint.)

https://ca.news.yahoo.com/donald-trump-takes-stage-song-124457163.html

In September 2020, he disembarked from Air Force One to Creedence Clearwater Revival’s protest anthem “Fortunate Son,” a song calling out the ability of the privileged to avoid the Vietnam War while the less fortunate could not. Trump was born into wealth and has been labeled a draft dodger for a claim of foot bone spurs that enabled him to skip military service.)

They bring attention to news and commentary that promote the a) individual responsibility, b) traditional marriage and family, c) right to life, d) immigration, e) illegal drugs, f) Second Amendment, and g) equal opportunity (no race or gender based preference giving) planks in the Republican Party platform. The newsletters discourage Democrat, Libertarian, and Green party promotion of a) dependency on government and charity, b) LGBTQ, c) abortion, d) mass/illegal immigration, e) booze, gambling, pot, and other vices, f) diminishment of Second Amendment rights, and g) Affirmative Action, Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion, that is, patronage, political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, and age discrimination. If the Illinois Republican Party, Republican county party organizations, Republican township and ward party organizations, Republican elected officials, conservative leaders and activists, and religious leaders and activists did what they should be doing, there would be no need for GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters and Republicans would be the majority in Illinois, in DuPage County, in Milton Township, and in Wheaton.

I should write a book about candidates on ballots in my precinct since 2000 who have blamed me the most for their losses. I would focus on those candidates who have blamed what I have done as the GOPUSA Illinois Editor since 2000. I would focus on those candidates who blamed what I did as a) the Republican fundraiser for Wheaton Independence Day parades and fireworks 2005-2019, b) the chairman of TAPROOT Republicans of Illinois 2005-2012, and c) a member of the Illinois Center Right Coalition (ICRC) Steering Committee 2003-2007. I would focus on those candidates who have taken the most/biggest adverse actions against me including ending my service as a) the Republican fundraiser for Wheaton Independence Day parades and fireworks, b) the chairman of TAPROOT, and c) a member of the ICRC Steering Committee.

The more of the aforesaid that a recruit is, the more that recruit would be given unfair job assignments, unfair performance expectations, and unfair performance appraisals and the more that “up-or-out” would be used to get rid of that recruit. The Democrats who run the federal government want all federal employees to be “good little Democrats.”

This bill would allow enlistment of: DACA recipients; People who have Temporary Protected Status (TPS); and People who have an approved petition for an immigrant visa, subject to visa caps.)

It is called a) up-or-out, b) political affiliation discrimination, c) reverse discrimination, d) age discrimination, e) religious discrimination, and f) national origin discrimination. All my coworkers who my Democrat IRS superiors promoted over me were Democrats who were minority, female, veteran, non-Protestant, and/or non-German American and/or a) had less job-related work experience than I had, b) had less job-related education than I had, and/or c) had no professional certifications. I earned an MBA from Loyola in 1976. I passed the CPA examination on my first attempt in 1979. I earned a master’s degree in accounting from DePaul in 1980.)

But I acknowledge that might very well have not saved me because many of my Republican U.S. Senators and my Republican U.S. Representatives a) rejected the equal opportunity (no race or gender based preference giving) plank in the Republican Party platform, b) promoted patronage, political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, and/or age discrimination, c) were anti-draft avoiders, d) were anti-Protestant, e) anti-German American, f) were anti-conservative if not anti-Republican, and/or g) were anti-those who did not give them lots of money. I lived in Crete 1948-1972, University Park 1972-1976, Chicago 1976-1978, and Wheaton since 1978.)

CENTER SQUARE ILLINOIS
— Leaders of the union representing Chicago police say they have reached a tentative agreement with the city over a retention bonus. State Rep. La Shawn Ford, D-Chicago, told The Center Square that retention benefits are needed to keep competent police officers in the city. – Andrew Hensel (COMMENT: Since 1997, when I was 49 years old, when my Democrat GAO superiors succeeded in forcing me to take their early retirement “offer,” my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes have hinted/implied/argued/shouted that my Democrat GAO superiors did that because I was incompetent and even worse things. In my defense, I stress that a) I had earned a master’s degree in financial markets and trading from IIT and I had become a Forensic Accountant that year, b) I had become a Certified Financial Service Auditor in 1996, c) I had become a Certified Government Financial Manager in 1994, d) I had become a Certified Fraud Examiner in 1990, e) I had passed the Certified Internal Auditor examination on my first attempt and I had become a licensed CPA in 1981, f) I had earned a master’s degree in accounting from DePaul in 1980, g) I had passed the CPA examination on my first attempt in 1979, and h) I had earned an MBA from Loyola in 1976. Because my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes had to acknowledge the aforesaid, they have ever-increasingly hinted/implied/argued/shouted that the real reason why I was forced into early retirement was that I am a White supremacist, Nazi, KKK member, hater, racist, sexist, bigot, and even worse things. This all came out when my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes unsuccessfully tried to get the Illinois Center Right Coalition to censure me for my GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters during its 2006 Annual Convention in the Wheaton Bowl Banquet Hall. I should write a book about my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes. Better yet, I should sue them.)

DUPAGE POLICY JOURNAL
— ‘What struck me was the level of indignance both Commissioner Tornatore and Chairman Zay demonstrated. – Noel Manley’
https://dupagepolicyjournal.com/stories/646021621-manley-what-struck-me-was-the-level-of-indignance-both-commissioner-tornatore-and-chairman-zay-demonstrated
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The Downers Grove Township Republican Organization hosted DuPage Commissioner Sam Tornatore and DuPage GOP Chairman Jim Zay. Noel Manley, a committeeman with the Downers Grove Township Republican Organization (DGTRO), said the pair’s performance was less than desirable. “DuPage Commissioner Tornatore and DuPage GOP Chairman Zay appeared at our July 10, 2023 DGTRO Committemen’s meeting,” Manley told the DuPage Policy Journal. “Both were invited by DGTRO Chairman Jack Novak to address concerns raised by committeemen regarding their actions. Commissioner Tornatore addressed a $1,000.00 donation made by his firm to Democrat Deb Conroy.” “The commissioner reported that he was invited to the event by a trusted Republican friend. It was discovered last night that donating to Democrat events is a common practice among Republican leadership. Chairman Zay’s remarks focused on coming together as Republicans and not dwell in the past. Both justified their actions as efforts necessary to protect the budgets of the DuPage County Sheriff’s Office and the DuPage County State’s Attorney’s Office.” “However, what struck me was the level of indignance both Commissioner Tornatore and Chairman Zay demonstrated in their explanations. Specifically, their justifications were peppered with comments such as, ‘I didn’t have to be here tonight.’ In addition, questions and comments raised by committeemen regarding the lack of support in recent elections, and contributions to Democrat events were simply dismissed or ignored. In fact, there was no effort to demonstrate any humility or contriteness regarding these matters.” “To compound this presentation, DGTRO Chairman Jack Novak referred to our group of concerned committeemen as anarchists and declared that there is no room for activism in the Republican Party. So it was clear that there was no interest in listening to our concerns, nor a willingness to understand the demoralizing impact GOP leadership’s actions are taking on the rank and file. In fact, the subtext was the exact opposite, ‘Get in line, and shut up. And pay no attention to the man behind the curtain.’” Zay, chairman of the DuPage County Republican Party, has refused to criticize fellow Republicans who financially and materially supported Democratic candidate Deb Conroy in her campaign for DuPage County Board Chair. In a letter to the DuPage GOP, Zay emphasized the need for unity within the party and calls for an end to public criticism of fellow Republicans, stating that it only weakens the party and hinders its ability to expand its base. The statement came after Republican members, including Tornatore and former Board member Donald Puchalski, were outed by the DuPage Policy Journal for making campaign donations to Conroy, drawing attention and controversy within the party. Another Republican, former DuPage County Board member Pete DiCianni was paid by Conroy’s campaign for marketing efforts to get her elected. The DuPage Republicans who have thrown in to support the campaigns of Democrats as we Zay drew the ire of former state representative and one-time gubernatorial candidate Jeanne Ives. Ives, now CEO of Breakthrough Ideas, criticized her fellow DuPage County Republicans for supporting the progressive Conroy’s campaign for DuPage County Board Chair, highlighting Conroy’s alignment with the Democratic Party’s platform and her controversial legislative decisions. “Democrat policies have destroyed the state of Illinois,” Ives said. “I am disgusted that any of my fellow Republicans would do so or defend other Republicans who do so, especially a fundraiser for Deb Conroy.” “Conroy is opposed to every single aspect of our Republican party platform.”)

— French riots show the future of Joe Biden’s America – William Davis
https://www.americanthinker.com/blog/2023/07/french_riots_show_the_future_of_joe_bidens_america.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: As the U.S. deals with the consequences of mass immigration, important lessons can be learned from our oldest European ally. Over the past few weeks, France has been engulfed in riots after a 17-year-old boy was shot and killed by a police officer during a traffic stop. The rioting and looting have largely been centered in communities with many migrants from North African and Islamic nations. The rioting has caused more than one billion dollars in property damage, and has led to thousands of arrests. It has also led to a renewed debate in Europe about the costs of mass migration and whether or not those costs are worth it. It’s not just the U.S. that has experienced an influx of foreign nationals in recent years. France took in a record number of migrants in 2022, both legal and illegal. The European Union resettled nearly one million migrants last year, not including refugees from war-torn Ukraine. The main countries of origin for these refugees were Syria, Afghanistan, Turkey, Venezuela, and Columbia. Just as we’ve seen in the U.S., these large influxes of migrants have had a destabilizing effect on the continent’s cultural, economic, and political life. The carnage occurring in France is the result of long-simmering tensions finally coming to the surface. It’s the results of migrants from third-world, war-torn countries not assimilating into their new country, but bringing the baggage from their old countries with them. During the France riots, a group of North African migrants could be seen chanting “f*ck France,” and “We’re just here for the welfare!” The crassness of these migrants certainly isn’t representative of everybody seeking to come from the third world to prosperous western nations, but it is indicative of a larger problem with mass immigration. Many of these foreign nationals come from countries where violence and chaos has been normalized, and the importation of migrants from these types of countries can also serve to normalize the same type of disorder in their new countries. This is why what’s happening in France should serve as a warning sign for Americans. More than five million illegal aliens have crossed the U.S.-Mexico border since Joe Biden took office.)

— Hate-filled Trump-hating Trump-haters ever-increasing destroy those who do not hate Trump. Who are the biggest hate-filled Trump-hating Trump-haters in your county, in your township, and in your municipality? I should write a book about the biggest hate-filled Trump-hating Trump-haters in DuPage County, Milton Township, and Wheaton. I would focus on those who have lots of religious, government, political, and/or financial clout. I would focus on those who have taken the most/biggest adverse actions against me. I would focus on those who almost succeeded in stopping me from reporting on the recent DeSantis event in Elmhurst. I would focus on those who stopped me from serving as the Republican fundraiser for Wheaton Independence Day parades and fireworks in 2021.

WEDNESDAY JOURNAL
— Democrats say “In DEI training, Oak Park board talks plain about English. Theory of change and prevalence of the English language in U.S. discussed.” All my ancestors immigrated during the 1840s and 1850s from what is now Germany. Tragically, they were very slow to speak, read, and write English. Consequently, my father was only the first of my ancestors to earn a high school diploma. My mother never attended high school.
https://www.oakpark.com/2023/07/11/in-dei-training-oak-park-board-talks-plain-about-english/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: When the Oak Park village board first embarked on cultural competency training, its first session, held June 26, was dedicated to deconstructing what racial equity really is and the myths surrounding it. That deconstruction work continued July 5 during the board’s second session but evolved into an interesting discussion of how the prevalence of the English language in the United States has been used to assert cultural dominance. “I think being able to speak multiple languages is like a superpower, but it’s not always necessarily considered a value,” said Danielle Walker, the village’s chief officer of diversity, equity and inclusion. The discussion of the English language’s influence on American culture was spurred by Trustee Lucia Robinson, who used English-speaking mandates in areas along the United States-Mexico border as an example of how policies and practices can reinforce the systemic social barriers that create inequity.)

POLITICO ILLINOIS
— Democrats crow that “Uihleins lose a battle at home.”
https://www.politico.com/newsletters/illinois-playbook/2023/07/13/uihleins-say-new-law-really-blows-00106077
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Republican megadonors Dick and Liz Uihlein have lost some big battles over the years, but the latest one hits close to home — literally. The rule really blows: The Uihleins asked the Village of Lake Bluff, where they live on a huge estate, to exempt them from a new regulation that bans smelly, noisy gas-powered leaf blowers from May 15 to Sept. 30. Who’s exempt: Only public properties such as golf courses, village athletic fields and schools are allowed the exemption — and that’s just for two years while they get battery-powered equipment in hand. The Uihleins made their request in a June 2 letter to Village Administrator Drew Irvin. “Given the size of our 22-acre property in Lake Bluff, we would like to request a similar two-year exemption,” they wrote, adding that battery-powered blowers “simply cannot get the job done as well and are basically just as noisy as gas-powered ones.” Village President Regis Charlot referred the Uihleins’ request to the village’s Sustainability and Community Enhancement Committee, which discussed the issue but rejected the request, Irvin told Playbook. Village trustees unanimously agreed, and officially snuffed the Uihleins’ request at their June 27 board meeting, according to Pioneer Press’ Daniel I. Dorfman, who first wrote about the issue. From the board: “There are tools out there that can be used,” Trustee Marietta Hance said in Dorfman’s story. “This is a private family asking the community to make an exemption for them. It doesn’t fit with what we have decided.” Not their first loss: The Uihleins, who didn’t return requests for comment, are among the largest Republican donors in the country. And as POLITICO’s Alex Isenstadt recently wrote, the Uihleins have been criticized “for squandering millions of dollars on failed longshot candidates, including several in 2022, like Illinois gubernatorial candidate Darren Bailey and Arkansas Senate hopeful Jake Bequette.” The couple’s combined political giving to federal candidates and causes over the last decade exceeds $230 million, according to campaign finance records.)

— More than half of workers say they’re looking for a career change – Carolyn Crist (COMMENT: To justify forcing me to suffer a $21,863/year (21%) pay cut in today’s dollars to transfer from IRS to GAO in 1980 when I was 31 years old, the Democrats who ran GAO falsely painted my job transfer as being a career change. They ignored the fact that very much of what I did for IRS was very similar to what I would be doing for GAO. That similarity was shown by the fact that I passed the Certified Internal Auditor examination on my first attempt and became a licensed CPA in 1981. They not only would not have forced me to suffer a pay cut to transfer, they would have offered me a promotion to transfer if I had been a Democrat, minority, female, younger, veteran, LGBTQer, non-Christian, non-Protestant, non-German American, and/or if my ancestors had not been in America for a long time for the following reasons: a) GAO audits IRS, b) 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 $92,279-$104,563/year, b) I had passed the CPA examination on my first attempt in 1979, and c) I had earned an MNA from Loyola in 1976.

https://wcfcourier.com/opinion/letters/nation-is-under-attack-through-fentanyl/article_2c455340-1c71-11ee-90ab-0faa1a7ae780.html
(FROM THE LETTER: Illegal fentanyl is manufactured in China, shipped to Jalisco and Sinaloan cartels in Mexico. It is then shipped to our U.S. addicts and many will die of overdose. Fentanyl is 100 times more powerful than morphine and most addicts do not have a medical degree to get the right dose. Fentanyl overdoses have killed more than car accidents, gun violence, breast cancer, and suicide per year. We as a nation are under attack. We elect politicians to provide for our common defense, and they are doing a poor job of it. With the help of drugs and guns we are killing Americans quicker than new ones are born. China and other of our enemies find this easier than fighting our military. “Ask what you can do for your country, and do it now while you have time.”)

CBS NEWS
— Democrats say “Affirmative action in college admissions and why military academies were exempted by the Supreme Court.” During the 1980s and 1990s, GAO specifically exempted its employees who were veterans from suffering any kind of adverse impacts of massive GOP-led budget cuts. If I had been a veteran, GAO would not have forced me to take its early retirement “offer” in 1997 when I was 49 years old and I might still be a GAO employee. Further, a) GAO would not have forced me to suffer a $21,863/year (21%) pay cut in today’s dollars to transfer from IRS to GAO in 1980, b) GAO would not have delayed my promotions to back to GS-11, back to GS-12, and then to GS-13, and c) GAO would have promoted me to GS-14, GS-15, and Senior Executive Service. I say that because a) GAO audits IRS, b) 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 $92,279-$104,583/year, c) I had earn an MBA from Loyola in 1976, d) I had passed the CPA examination on my first attempt in 1979, e) I had earned a master’s degree in accounting from DePaul in 1980, f) I had passed the Certified Internal Auditor examination on my first attempt and became a licensed CPA in 1981, g) I had become a Certified Fraud Examiner in 1990, Government Financial Manager in 1994, Financial Services Auditor in 1996, and Forensic Accountant in 1997, and h) I had earned a master’s degree in financial markets and trading from IIT in 1997.

WASHINGTON POST
— Democrats ever-increasingly hint/imply/argue/shout that for minorities, females, and younger people to advance, they need more than Affirmative Action, they need government to officially take more and more and more opportunities away from Republicans who are White, male, and/or older and to give those opportunities to minorities, to females, and to younger people. It is called political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, and age discrimination.

— Democrats say “The boomers are retiring. See why that’s bad news for workers.” My Democrat GAO superiors outrageously forced me to take their early retirement “offer” in 1997 when I was 49 years old. By doing that, a) they wasted the almost 18 years of experience that I had gained working for GAO, the last 11 years of which at the GS-13 Step 1-10 levels, currently $109,732-142,650/year; b) they wasted the almost 9 years of experience that I had gained 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; c) they wasted what I had learned earning a master’s degree in financial markets and trading from IIT in 1997; d) they wasted what I had learned passing the Certified Internal Auditor examination in 1981; e) they wasted what I had learned earning a master’s degree in accounting from DePaul in 1980; f) they wasted what I had learned passing the CPA examination in 1979; and g) they wasted what I had learned earning an MBA from Loyola in 1976.

But my Democrat IRS superiors not only ignored that to disallow those courses, they outrageously, disgustingly, and unethically hinted/implied/argued/shouted that I lied in those applications and that I took the courses to get a job in the private sector.

That’s the question this July 4 as just 29% of Democrats say they’re extremely proud of the country, accompanied by just 33% of Independents and 60% of Republicans. In fact, Democratic love of country has always fallen far behind that of Republicans, even during the Obama era, when it hit a temporary high of just over 50% (Republicans at the time said they were extremely proud of the country at a rate of approximately 70%). Why is it that liberals in the United States are so much less proud of America than conservatives? These days, the answer typically given is America’s inherent sinfulness; there is nothing in the American founding worth conserving.)

Neither of my outstanding parents attended college. My father was the first of my ancestors to earn a high school diploma. He worked in the office of a nasty chemical plant in Chicago Heights and almost always worked second jobs to pay the family’s bills. He died suddenly in 1969 when he was 47 and I was 21. My mother never attended high school. Because of the aforesaid, I did yard work 1962-1964; delivered newspapers 1962-1966; washed dishes 1964-1966; cleaned golf shoes, chipped slag, and pumped gasoline in 1966; and delivered mail 1966-1969. With the money that I earned, a) I bought a 1958 Chevrolet Bel Air in 1964, a new 1966 Pontiac Tempest Sprint in 1966, a new 1968 Oldsmobile 442 in 1967, and a new 1969 Dodge Charger SE in 1968; b) I paid for my college expenses at UIC 1966-1968 and at NIU 1969-1970; and c) I graduated debt-free from NIU in 1970 with a bachelor’s degree in management.)

Hate mail poured in.” and ask “What should the school do?” Democrats run the federal government. They do not allow free speech. They only allow speech which promotes the Democrat Party platform. They waste the careers of and they get rid of federal employees who object to any plank in the Democrat Party platform and especially its planks that promote dependency on government and charity, LGBTQ, abortion, mass/illegal immigration, booze, gambling, pot, and other vices, abolition of the Second Amendment, patronage, political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, age discrimination, religious discrimination, and national origin discrimination. I should write a book about how my superiors in the federal government wasted my career and got rid of me because I opposed the aforesaid planks.

Scores of schools have adopted it.)

— Joe Biden Wants To Oust ‘Privilege’ From College Admissions — Except For His Family – Virginia Kruta (COMMENT: How much clout did your parents have when you were in high school? Neither of my outstanding parents attended college. My father was the first of my ancestors to earn a high school diploma. My mother never attended high school. My father worked in the office of a nasty chemical plant in Chicago Heights. He almost always worked second jobs to pay the family’s bills. My mother stayed home and raised my brother and me.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: But according to a report published Saturday by the Washington Free Beacon, President Biden was part of a concerted effort in 2018 to pressure the president of the prestigious University of Pennsylvania to accept his granddaughter, despite the school’s 5.9% admissions rate and her less-than-stellar grades. “I applied early decision to Penn today!!” Maisy Biden reportedly texted her father, Hunter Biden, on October 31 of 2018 — and then asked just days later if he could provide an “update” on the status of her application. “Going to try to see [University of Pennsylvania] Pres GUTMANN tomorrow,” Joe Biden texted Hunter on December 13, and two days later he followed up. “Had a great talk with Guttman [sic]. Maisy still in the game for regular acceptance. But must do well in class this period. It’s real. We should talk about tutors etc. starting tomorrow.” Hunter Biden relayed the news to Maisy, adding that she could potentially elevate her application if her lacrosse coach were to reach out to the coach at Penn and express her interest in playing there as well. “I also think it would help if you had lax coach talk to their lax coach. Bottom line is that Guttman [sic] made clear that in order for her to explain the 11th grade you had to show improvement in 12th,” Hunter texted on December 15th. “Which is something I think we would have all liked to know form [sic] the start, but in fairness we were much later in the app process than usual and made it look like we weren’t 100% about Penn.”)

BOSTON GLOBE
— FROM THE ARTICLE: MERRIMACK, N.H.: But candidates still need to show they are authentic and relatable and look sincere to voters.” Tuesday’s parade had that in spades. DeSantis and his wife, Casey, walked with one of their young daughters, who spent much of the 1½-mile route riding piggyback on Casey. Burgum toted a candy bucket along the route. Scott greeted parade marchers beforehand, joking with one long-bearded man that he couldn’t pull off that much hair, motioning to his bald head. “Want some?” the man asked. One of the biggest parade contingents was for a candidate who was not there: Trump. . .Other presidential hopefuls, meanwhile, walked through a drizzle that became a steady rainfall by the end of the route on Tuesday. DeSantis at several points said he was impressed by the turnout for the parade, noting to a supporter midway through the walk that “in Florida, people might have scattered” at that point. “We’re going to be doing so much more here,” he told reporters afterward.
