CHICAGO TRIBUNE (FRONT PAGE TOP OF FOLD IN NAPERVILLE SUN)
— Naperville councilman Josh McBroom wants Naper Pride Fest funding ended in wake of Kirk posts. TAPROOT Republicans of Illinois and Illinois Center Right Coalition (ICRC) never sought government funding or got government funding. I served as the TAPROOT chairman 2005-2012 and as an ICRC officer 2003-2007. Naper Pride promotes liberal principles. TAPROOT and ICRC promoted conservative principles.
https://www.chicagotribune.com/2025/09/20/naperville-councilman-mcbroom-pride-funding-kirk-seca/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Naperville City Councilman Josh McBroom is demanding LGBTQ+-focused Naper Pride apologize for recent “political” social media posts or he will vote against future city funding for the nonprofit. . .In the wake of his death, Naper Pride shared a Facebook post on Sept. 15 that featured a comment from the Rev. Howard John-Wesley, pastor of Alfred Street Baptist Church in Alexandria, Virginia, in which he said: “There is nowhere in the Bible where we are taught to honor evil and how you die does not redeem how you lived. You don’t become a hero in death when you are a weapon of the enemy in life.” In response to that message, McBroom put up his own Facebook post in which he discussed funding provided to organizations through Naperville’s Special Events & Community Arts (SECA) Commission and stated that groups that engage in political advocacy “should not be subsidized with tax dollars.” According to city documents, the group this year was allocated $5,219 for city services and $21,100 to help cover the cost of operations for Pride Fest, which was held Sept. 13 at Naper Settlement. Naper Pride, in its response to McBroom’s post, posted a follow-up statement in which they said they “do not advocate for violence against anyone” and that everyone “has the right to free speech, but nobody has the right to force anyone else to listen.” The organization also shut down the comments section on its post after receiving a flurry of negative messages. They also noted that Kirk, whose name was later removed from the post, had “advocated for violence against LGBTQ individuals,” including once saying he believed gay people be stoned to death, a point that was widely circulated but has since been clarified. “You’d have to (be) completely tone deaf to not understand that there would be complex feelings around this, everyone is different,” the message said. At Tuesday’s city council meeting, McBroom — former vice president of the anti-LGBTQ+ group Awake Illinois — doubled-down on his belief that Naper Pride took a political stance and should not receive future city funding without an apology or retraction. He posted a clip of his comments from the city council meeting on social media Wednesday: “The posts they put out there suggested that Charlie Kirk was evil, that his followers were the enemy,” McBroom said. “They continued and made a false claim that Charlie Kirk and by extension his followers advocated the stoning or murdering of LGBTQ communities.” McBroom also emphasized in his Wednesday post that while Naper Pride’s comments may fall under protected speech, he believes that protection does not “override responsibility” when it comes to receiving city funds. On Friday, in another social media post, he further stressed it was not a freedom of speech issue. “While I believe this rhetoric is dangerously reckless, particularly to our community youth who were Charlie fans, I still defend their right to say it,” McBroom wrote. “But when they are being funded with OUR money, I believe the tax payers have a right to demand a retraction and apology or end this subsidy entirely.” However, there is nothing in rules governing the awarding of SECA money that states that funding recipients must refrain from political advocacy or making political statements. Despite McBroom’s statement that freedom of speech does not factor into his position, it could easily be seen as such, said Ed Yohnka, a spokesman for the American Civil Liberties Union. “What we’re seeing right now and what’s really precarious is we’re seeing people attempting to use the power of the government to punish people for their speech, and oft times that attempted punishment is not really reflective of the speech itself but is, in fact, simply reflective of a political view of some government official,” Yohnka said. “To be sure, the council member can vote or not vote,” Yohnka said. “To condition it on them changing their speech is, in some ways, the thing that really is antithetical to our constitutional system.” The freedom of speech issue came into the forefront this past week with the announcement that the “Jimmy Kimmel Live!” late night TV show was being put on indefinite hiatus following a joke the comedian made in reference to Kirk and President Trump’s MAGA followers. The move by ABC had the backing of FCC Chairman Brendan Carr, who said other such actions may follow. When interviewed on Friday, McBroom said Naper Pride is free to say whatever its wants, but that doesn’t mean the city has to support them financially. He’d like to see the city reexamine its rules for SECA funding, he said. “As far as like a chilling effect on individuals and how they act in the community, maybe that’s not a bad thing,” McBroom said. “If we’re going to continue giving out all these city grants, I think these organizations need to be very careful that they don’t get political and they don’t engage in divisive type of rhetoric and they stay out of the local political process.” A representative from Naper Pride reiterated to the Naperville Sun that its posts were not made with an intent to be divisive or to advocate for violence but to address the situation from the perspective of the LGBTQ+ community. “So many people objecting to the statement are taking it as we are calling them the enemy,” the representative said. “We’re not pointing a finger at anybody, not Mr. Kirk’ followers, not anybody. It’s just a statement of emotion made by that pastor in the moment and it sums up how many people feel when you have an individual that’s so polarizing, as Mr. Kirk was.”)

FORTUNE
— Charlie Kirk left behind a vast, lucrative network of 500,000 donors who gave Turning Point $85 million in revenue
https://fortune.com/2025/09/20/charlie-kirk-donor-network-turning-point-usa-revenue-republican-party/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Charlie Kirk was only a teenager when he launched a scrappy conservative student group out of his parents’ suburban Illinois home. A decade later, that group—Turning Point USA—has grown into a political juggernaut, generating nearly a half-billion in total revenue in the 13 years since its inception, creating a sprawling network of campus chapters, and building a media machine that rivals legacy establishments. On Sept, 10, Kirk, a husband and father of two, was shot and killed at a Turning Point event at Utah Valley University. He was 31 years old. His death has ignited conspiracy theories, calls for gun control, and a nationwide political debate over his legacy. But it has also left the future of his formidable conservative business and non-profit enterprises hanging in the balance. By channeling polarization and student engagement, Kirk not only built an empire that sits at the center of the American right’s culture wars, but also made himself a multi-millionaire, according to the Associated Press—and one of the nation’s youngest political power brokers, with a seat at President Donald Trump’s table. A review of Kirk’s and Turning Point’s finances shows just how much Kirk benefited from and capitalized on two key trends of the last decade-plus: an energized web of right-wing donors from the business community, and the meteoric rise of the conservative media ecosystem. Turning Point USA netted $85 million in revenue in 2024 alone, up more than 142% over the last five years. The vast majority, 99.2%, of that revenue comes from charitable contributions, including at least $350,000 from Kirk himself in 2024. According to Kolvet, the organization brought in approximately 350,000 grassroots, “small dollar” donors. “The goal was to get over 500,000 this year. And, given all that’s happened, we’ve eclipsed that goal, and that’s exciting,” he added. Large and hard to trace How exactly Turning Point spends its money, and who benefits from the organization’s hefty annual revenue, is unclear. Like many political advocacy groups, it’s organized as a 501(c)3 non-profit; the IRS does not require such groups to publicly disclose detailed expenditure accounts. The lack of clarity is compounded by the fact that many of Turning Point’s largest vendors are limited liability companies registered in states that do not mandate public ownership disclosure. Within Turning Point’s organizational structure, there are also several interconnected nonprofit groups, political action committees, and a for-profit merchandise company, none of which are required to publicly report their finances. One branch, the Turning Point Endowment, held $64.3 million in 2024, having grown from $7.2 million in 2020. The funds in this branch, according to Turning Point, are part of the group’s “50-100 year plan to continue reaching generation after generation of young Americans.”)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: “America does not need more visas for people from India. Perhaps no form of legal immigration has so displaced American workers as those from India. Enough already. We’re full. Let’s finally put our own people first,” he tweeted on September 2. He was fatally shot on September 10 while debating gun violence during an event.)

NEW YORK POST
— How to attend Charlie Kirk’s funeral in Arizona
https://nypost.com/2025/09/17/us-news/how-to-attend-charlie-kirks-funeral-in-arizona/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Kirk’s funeral, an American-themed celebration with a red, white and blue dress code, will be held at the State Farm Stadium, home of the Arizona Cardinals, in Glendale, Arizona on Sunday. Doors are set to open at 8 a.m. local time, but the program itself won’t begin until 11 a.m., according to the funeral website: https://www.fightforcharlie.com/ How to attend the memorial service Attendance is free, but fans should register online to get a ticket in order to attend, according to the website. Organizers encouraged fans of Kirk to arrive early and carpool if possible. They noted that admission inside the stadium will be on a “first come, first served” basis, but that overflow will be available at the nearby Desert Diamond Arena. The State Farm Stadium typically holds a whopping 63,400 people, but can stretch to accommodate more than 73,000 for larger events, according to the venue. The Desert Diamond Arena, which is less than a mile away from the megadome, can fit around 20,000 people. Organizers said further event guidance and instructions will be sent to attendees the evening before the service. How to watch the memorial service Beyond the stadiums, mourners near and far will be able to watch the funeral live online through multiple news networks, including many Fox and CBS affiliates. It will also likely be streamed by Turning Point USA, given that the organization has livestreamed previous memorial services for its founder. What to expect Security will be tight between both stadiums. The speakers set to deliver remarks feature a laundry list of White House officials, including President Trump and Vice President Vance, who was a close friend of Kirk. Kirk’s widow, Erika, will also deliver remarks. Just yesterday, a pre-trial protective order was filed on her behalf while her husband’s alleged assassin, Tyler Robinson, is behind bars. The rest of the speakers primarily come from the Trump Administration’s cabinet, including Secretary of Health and Human Services RFK Jr. and Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard, who both spoke at Kirk’s memorial at the Kennedy Center. Fox News alums Tucker Carlson, who organized a fundraiser for the Kirk family through his nicotine pouch company, and Secretary of War Pete Hegseth will also speak at the funeral.)

CHICAGO TRIBUNE
— FRONT PAGE TOP OF FOLD WITH BIG PICTURES: A debate reflective of the country’s political divide is unfolding at Wheeling High School, where groups are clashing over efforts to honor slain political firebrand Charlie Kirk, arguably its most famous graduate. Students, parents and community members have begun signing dueling petitions on how to best memorialize Kirk. What positions do the students in the high schools and colleges in your area have on Kirk?
https://www.chicagotribune.com/2025/09/18/charlie-kirk-honored/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: A day after the petition appeared on Change.org, an opposing appeal was launched. It expressed condolences to Kirk’s family, then called his legacy “divisive, not unifying,” and said Turning Point chapters would not be “educationally neutral.” It also said a “day of honor” would be “divisive and inappropriate.” “While his achievements are notable to some, honoring him at this level would send a message to many students, families, and staff — especially those who have been targeted or alienated by Kirk’s rhetoric — that their concerns and lived experiences are secondary,” the petition said. As of Wednesday afternoon, the pro-Kirk petition had about 3,600 signatures and its opposition had 2,600. . .According to Change.org, the opposing petition was started by a person named “April Mahoney.” Efforts to reach Mahoney were not successful.

https://www.dailysignal.com/2025/09/17/the-lefts-cancel-culture-frankenstein-turns-on-it-after-charlie-kirks-death/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: We’ve had a culture of about five years of what I would call cancel culture, deplatforming, doxing, blacklisting, using all sorts of methods to suppress free speech. That was one of the reasons why Elon Musk paid such an exorbitant sum for the old Twitter: to allow free speech. And cancel culture said that if you voice something that was considered illiberal, you were gonna lose your job. We saw that through #MeToo, when a number of Hollywood luminaries and professors were fired because they had said or done something considered sexist or ill-advised. We saw that on matters of race after George Floyd. But what’s happened now is the death of Charlie Kirk has kind of turned the tables. People who are using that death to comment in criticism of him before he is even buried are now facing, not censorship, but certain platforms, media platforms especially, are saying, “We just don’t want you to be here anymore. It’s not that we don’t like you. We’re not trying to censor you. We’re just giving you the Joy Reid treatment.”)

Told to look under a keyboard, Tyler Robinson’s roommate discovered a note reading, “I had the opportunity to take out Charlie Kirk and I’m going to take it.” “You weren’t the one who did it right????” the roommate asked. “I am, I’m sorry,” Robinson replied.)

IRS offered me that job because I had passed the Federal Service Entrance Examination and I had earned a bachelor’s degree in business. I took that job because I had to have a job. My Firestone Store boss had rudely fired me because I had accepted a job offer from Oldsmobile. But Oldsmobile withdrew that job offer because it had just agreed to store hiring Whites to settle an EEOC complaint. I had to have a job because I was helping support my mother and brother. I should write about my critics/opponents who have used my having been an IRS Revenue Officer for almost 9 years against me the most since 1971.

Since I was 18 years old in 1966, my critics/opponents have always stressed a) that I was 1-A for the Vietnam War draft and b) that I avoided the Vietnam War draft with student draft deferments 1966-1970 and a financial hardship draft deferment 1970-1971. They ignore/dismiss that I could not run because I had a bone disease, that my eyesight could not be corrected to 20/20, and that I had partial red/green color blindness. Worse yet, according to them, my aforesaid health problems prove that I am an unpatriotic hypocritical coward because I would not have been sent into combat. My Democrat Post Office, Firestone Store, IRS, and GAO superiors used my avoiding the Vietnam War draft against me the most. I should write about them. They blamed Republicans for America losing the Vietnam War. Of course, further, they have always stressed that if I had not avoided the Vietnam War draft, I would not have been able to a) earn a bachelor’s degree when I was 21 and master’s degrees when I was 27 and 31, b) buy new cars when I was 19, 20, 23, 25, and 29, c) buy real estate when I was 24, 25, 27, 29, and 35, and d) get married when I was 29.

— If I was still the TAPROOT Republicans of Illinois chairman, the organization would host an event honoring Kirk. I would invite all those who knew Kirk to speak at that event. If I was still an Illinois Center Right Coalition (ICRC) Steering Committee member, I would urge that organization to host a similar event. While I did not know Kirk, I know/knew many who knew Kirk Anti-conservatives would not have been able to destroy TAPROOT in 2012 if I had been able to recruit a conservative slate of officers to run with me, but my fellow conservatives declined. Anti-conservatives would not have been able to destroy ICRC in 2007 if more ICRC members had voted to keep me on ICRC’s Steering Committee. Anti-conservative Republican leaders in Illinois ever-increasingly blamed TAPROOT and George Ryan’s problems and then TAPROOT and ICRC for Jim Ryan’s problems. – Dave Diersen

— According to Democrats, Trump is too old to be President. Starting when I was 25 years old in 1974, according to my Democrat IRS superiors, I was too old to be a GS-13. I finally made GS-13 12 years later when I was 38 years old in 1986. But that was not until after I had a) earned an MBA fin 1976, b) passed the CPA examination on my first attempt in 1979, c) transferred to GAO in 1980, d) earned a master’s degree in accounting in 1980, e) passed the Certified Internal Auditor examination on my first attempt in 1981, and f) became a licensed CPA in 1981. The Democrats who run the federal government use up-or-out to get rid of their employees who are Republican, White, male. older, and/or non-veteran.

BREITBART
— Kirk’s Home State of Illinois Honors Him at Vigils Drawing Hundreds
https://www.breitbart.com/politics/2025/09/13/charlie-kirks-home-state-of-illinois-honors-him-at-vigils-drawing-hundreds/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: At Illinois State University, where Kirk spoke on April 8 as part of his “American Comeback Tour,” students and supporters placed a memorial on campus at the very spot where he addressed the crowd earlier this year. The tribute included flowers, handwritten notes, American flags, and a Bible open in homage. Nearly a hundred came together at the ISU quad flagpole for a prayer service that included Christian worship songs. The Hanover Township Republicans hosted another service, drawing hundreds who lit candles, prayed, and shared memories of Kirk. In Lemont, where Kirk founded Turning Point USA more than a decade ago, several hundred attendees turned out for a candlelight remembrance led in prayer, with participants singing the national anthem and holding handmade signs reading ‘You will be missed’ and ‘Your legacy will live on.’ Mourners also placed flowers, flags, and photos outside the site of his first office in the town. The ceremonies in Illinois follow a series of memorials held nationwide and abroad after Kirk, 31, was assassinated on September 10 while speaking at Utah Valley University before an audience of about 3,000. Law enforcement arrested 22-year-old Tyler Robinson in connection with the shooting. Communities overseas also honored his life. Hundreds of mourners assembled Friday evening in central London, where Turning Point UK organized a vigil featuring U.S. flags, the Christian hymn Amazing Grace, and candlelight in Parliament Square. Tributes were also reported in Berlin, Madrid, Paris, and Vienna, with Poland’s parliament holding a moment of silence at the request of the Law and Justice party. In the United States, sports teams and institutions held dedications, including moments of silence by the New York Yankees, Chicago Cubs, the NFL, and the Kennedy Center. Trump ordered American flags flown at half-staff until Sunday evening and announced that Kirk would be posthumously awarded the Presidential Medal of Freedom. A memorial service is scheduled for Sunday, September 21, at State Farm Stadium in Glendale, Arizona, which seats more than 63,000. Kirk is survived by his wife, Erika, and their two children.)

https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/nation/2025/09/13/who-is-erika-kirk-wife-of-charlie-kirk/86139481007/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Erika Lane Kirk, 36, had been married to Charlie Kirk since 2021. They wed on May 8 during a ceremony in Scottsdale, Arizona. Before marrying Kirk, the former Erika Frantzve won Miss Arizona USA in 2012. She received her Juris Master’s from Liberty University School of Law in 2019. She also earned her undergraduate degree in Political Science and International Relations at Arizona State University. She also played college basketball at Regis University in Denver. . .Erika Kirk is the CEO and founder of a nonprofit (Everyday Heroes Like You), a ministry project (BIBLEin365) that her bio says “seeks to help individuals engage with the scriptures daily,” and a faith-based clothing brand (PROCLAIM). She’s also the host of the “Midweek Rise Up” podcast, which she describes as a “devotional series focused on Biblical leadership and empowering others to lead with integrity and purpose.” Erika and Charlie Kirk met in 2018 and the two had a “very long dinner,” the conservative activist says in a video shared on Turning Point’s YouTube page. In the same video, Kirk says he knew his wife was the one “immediately.”)

If/when a Kirk vigil is held in your county, township, and/or municipality, how many would attend? Who would attend? While I cannot say that I knew Kirk, I know many people who knew him. No individuals or organizations have notified me of any Kirk vigils in DuPage County, Milton Township, or Wheaton. I should write about the ever-increasing Democrat-led and RINO-led anti-conservatism in Illinois, DuPage County, Milton Township, and Wheaton.

— Office Depot has issued an apology after one of its employees refused to make posters featuring conservative activist Charlie Kirk. The worker at a Michigan Office Depot was fired after allegedly refusing to print the posters for a vigil honoring Kirk, who was shot and killed while delivering a speech under a tent to a large crowd on campus at Utah Valley University in Orem on Wednesday. The posters were ordered by the Kalamazoo County Republican Party for a vigil that took place at Bronson Park in downtown Kalamazoo on Friday evening. Why It Matters. The incident underscores the growing tension between corporate neutrality, employee discretion, and political polarization in the U.S.

If I had been active in Republican politics, a) the Democrats who ran the Post Office in 1966 would not have hired me, b) the Democrats who ran IRS in 1971 would not have hired me, and c) the Democrats who ran GAO in 1980 would not have hired me.

— Older Democrats Defy Calls for Retirement. My Democrat GAO superiors, supervisors, coworkers, and subordinates wanted me to retire when I became eligible when I was 45 in 1993. They succeeded in forcing me to take GAO’s retirement “offer” just before it expired in 1997. I would not have been eligible for regular retirement until I was 55 in 2003. Being forced to retire early is devastating.
