— Focus on the suburbs
(DIERSEN: Political parties exist to help elect candidates who can and will defend and advance their platform. Illinois Democrat, Libertarian, Green, Independent, and RINO major donors and political consultants want Republicans to lose. Ever-increasingly, they shout at Illinois Republican candidates and party leaders that they should a) dump the traditional marriage/family, right to life, immigration, illegal drugs, Second Amendment, and equal opportunity (no race or gender based preference giving) planks in the Republican Party and b) dump Republicans who support any of the aforesaid planks. Further, Illinois Democrat, Libertarian, Green, Independent, and RINO major donors and political consultants ever-increasingly hint/imply/argue/shout at Illinois Republican candidates and party leaders that they should a) promote hatred against Trump and b) glorify and praise Kinzinger. I should write a book about Illinois Republican candidates and party leaders who have talked and/or acted the most like they have taken the aforesaid advice.)
https://capitolfax.com/2021/08/10/focus-on-the-suburbs/
(FROM RICH MILLER: The hard truth is the Republican Party has been scaring away suburban voters in droves for 20 years in Illinois (with some exceptions) with the issues they choose to run on and the types of people they nominate. Also, the sort of person who can gin up a ton of Downstate turnout is not generally the type who can play well in the suburbs. Bruce Rauner did it (barely winning the primary) and eventually brought peace to the party in 2018, but then eventually created loads of chaos.)

AMERICAN RENAISSANCE
— What’s Ahead for Whites – Jared Taylor
(DIERSEN: I should write a book about turncoat Whites who promote hatred against Whites, and especially against Whites who are law enforcement officers, Trump supporters, conservative, patriotic, Republican, American, male, older, non-veteran, heterosexual, married, non-poor, gun owners, Christian, Protestant, Italian American, German American, and/or those whose ancestors have been in America for a long time.)
https://www.amren.com/videos/2021/08/whats-ahead-for-whites/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: What’s ahead for white people in this country? First, there will be fewer of us. . .And we’re getting more non-whites. . .If you think this is a “great replacement,” Wikipedia says you believe in “a white nationalist conspiracy theory.” . . . Our country treats whites like a problem that must be solved. . .Every big organization has an army of people promoting “diversity.” Diversity means fewer white people, especially white men. . .You’ve heard of Critical Race Theory, which says all white people have unfair privileges and oppress everyone else whether we want to or not. That’s just our nature. . .Not one elected official talks about the interests of whites. I can’t remember when a politician even said anything good about white people. We are citizens of this country, but we might as well be stateless people who are just allowed to live here. Our government treats us like an embarrassment. The George Floyd riots were an eruption of contempt for whites. . .So, what’s ahead? More non-whites and their white “allies” will make policy. Blacks and Hispanics can’t succeed the way we do, so there will be ruthless preferences for them that will mean discrimination against us. Congress could pass new laws, but it won’t have to. Every non-white preference today is based on “civil rights” laws that were supposed to ban racial discrimination – so laws don’t matter. There could be race quotas for directors and executives of all companies. Race quotas for juries and grand juries – and these would be floors, not ceilings. Our rulers will pressure private companies to muzzle dissidents. They could tell banks not to give us mortgages. Cut off our electricity, water, telephone. If that doesn’t work, call what we say hate speech and make it a crime. If the Supreme Court tries to save the First Amendment, pack the court. Impose a “reparations” tax. Every white person making more than a certain amount would pay an additional 10 percent of gross income. There could be an even bigger “white privilege” tax on inheritances. Whites got their wealth through oppression, so they shouldn’t be able to pass it on. Make anyone buying a gun sign a diversity pledge. Impose a stiff anti-hate tax on any marriage license granted to two white people. “Progressive stacking” will become routine. That means, in a group, white people – especially white men – speak last. And when whites speak in public, they will start by confessing their white privilege and apologize for standing on land they stole. The CDC, along with 200 local jurisdictions, says racism is a “serious public health threat.” Declare white neighborhoods a public health threat and force them to integrate. We did it with school busing; we can do it with neighborhoods. I don’t know if all these things will happen; some will, for sure. But oppression will intensify at different rates in different places, so whites will gather in the least oppressive ones. You can move to one of those places. Whites will eventually elect representatives who stand up for them. You should be a part of that. The bitter truth is, we can’t save the whole country. We built it and we made it great, but it’s not ours anymore. Our goal should be local autonomy and eventual independence, so encourage all secession movements. Liberals are vicious, but if we are determined to leave, I don’t think they will kill us just to keep our corpses in the Union. Our rulers hate our history and despise us. They should be happy to see us go. So, it’s up to us to make this happen, and up to us alone. The decision is ours. If we want a place of our own on this continent, where we can be an outpost of Europe – without apologies and for ever – we have to make it happen.)

FORD AUTHORITY
— Previous Ford Downsizing Initiative Subject Of Ongoing Lawsuit – Brett Foote
(DIERSEN: When I started working for GAO’s Chicago office in 1980, virtually all of its older White male employees had accounting degrees. To justify getting rid of its older White male employees, the Democrats who ran GAO dramatically cut the work that GAO did that required accounting knowledge. Suddenly, the following became worthless in GAO’s eyes: a) my having passed the CPA on my first attempt in 1979, b) my earning a master’s degree in accounting from DePaul in 1980, c) my passing the Certified Internal Auditor examination on my first attempt in 1981, d) my becoming a licensed CPA in 1981, e) my serving on the Association of Government Accountants Chicago Chapter Executive Committee 1983-1996, and f) my becoming a Certified Fraud Examiner in 1990, Certified Government Financial Manager in 1994, Certified Financial Services Auditor in 1996, and Forensic Accountant in 1997.)
https://fordauthority.com/2021/08/previous-ford-downsizing-initiative-subject-of-ongoing-lawsuit/

(FROM THE ARTICLE: Ford, like many larger corporations, occasionally has to lay people off, change up its structure, or offer buyouts to accomplish either. As Ford Authority exclusively reported earlier this week, Ford Motor Company has initiated a buyout program for certain white-collar workers and teams dedicated to ICE-powered vehicles that includes six months of salary and healthcare benefits. However, a federal age discrimination lawsuit filed by eight employees alleges that the automaker targeted high-performing, older workers during the Ford downsizing process dubbed “Smart Redesign” back in 2019, according to the Detroit Free Press. According to internal Ford documents, under then-CEO Jim Hackett, the automaker hired Boston Consulting Group and tasked it with identifying employees that would present the most cost savings if their employment was terminated in the Ford downsizing effort. The lawsuit alleges that the consulting group used an algorithm that took into account the age of employees and their years of service. The latter bit is significant because employees hired prior to January 1st, 2004, were eligible for pension payments, which have, to date, cost Ford millions of dollars.)

EPOCH TIMES
— To Save America, Run for School Board – Roger L. Simon
https://www.theepochtimes.com/to-save-america-run-for-school-board_3933758.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Forget Congress, the Senate, or whatever glamorous position you ever fantasized about or not, even president of the United States, if you want to have a serious impact from your work, if, as they say, you want to make a difference, to change this country for the good in the short and long term, run for your local school board. You would be saving America from turning into the bleakest, socialist-communist state imaginable because that is what our current educational system, K-12, is designed to do and, sadly, has been successful in doing, literally for decades—and it’s only getting worse. You would in the process also be a true revolutionary in the tradition of the Founders of our country in bringing back truth, justice and the American way to our children and our children’s children. Someone’s gotta do it—the hour is late. But you, dear reader, can save us, especially if we band together—and there are plenty of us to do it. Please consider running for the school board to radically change a highly-corrupt and evil leftwing educational system, which has crossed the border into child abuse. The failure of this current system rests on two mutually reinforcing planes. One, indoctrination, rather than actual education, has become the overwhelming goal of our system from pre-school and kindergarten onwards.)

https://capitolfax.com/2021/08/04/live-pritzker-announces-mask-vax-mandates/
— FROM THE REPORT: ILGOP press release…As Governor J.B. Pritzker reinstitutes statewide COVID-19 mitigations and mandates, his re-election campaign is running ads highlighting his administration’s response to the COVID-19 pandemic, taking an obviously premature victory lap. Illinois Republican Party Chairman Don Tracy issued the following statement calling on Pritzker to take his TV ads off the airwaves : “Governor Pritzker cannot have it both ways. He cannot run political TV ads that take a victory lap over his pandemic response while at the same time reinstituting COVID mandates and mitigations. The return of these mandates is a clear admission of his own failure. Pritzker should take his self-serving TV ads off the air. Whether it’s veterans who have died under his care, massive unemployment insurance fraud, or the return of mandates after our state’s full re-opening, Pritzker’s executive incompetence has been the hallmark of his pandemic response.”

(FROM THE ARTICLE: It would be difficult to overstate the Democratic Party’s enduring and baleful role in slavery and racism…The Democratic southern states, such as Georgia, specifically criticized the anti-slavery policies of President Lincoln’s Republican Party in their declarations of succession in the Civil War. Even after the war, [historian Jay] Cost notes, the Democratic Party’s “central purpose in the second half of the 19th century was specifically to prevent civil rights legislation from being implemented.” In response to black Republicans being elected in Southern states during Reconstruction, it was Democrats who enacted poll taxes and literacy tests to suppress the black vote. A Democratic president, Woodrow Wilson, resegregated the federal work force in Washington and hosted a White House screening of D.W. Griffith’s egregiously racist, white supremacist “Birth of a Nation.” As late as 1952, the running mate of Democratic presidential candidate Adlai Stevenson, John Sparkman, was an open segregationist. A significantly higher percentage of congressional Republicans voted for the 1964 Civil Rights Act than did congressional Democrats, and segregationists such as George Wallace were major figures in the Democratic Party until the 1970s..The absence of Democratic Party critiques is all the more conspicuous when you consider that the 1619 Project doesn’t shy away from critiquing the GOP….)

GALESBURG REGISTER MAIL
— Churches succumbing to immoral ways – Thomas Mosher, Victoria
(DIERSEN: The Democrat, Libertarian, and Green party platforms are extremely anti-religious. Churches should speak out against the promotion of dependency on government, dependency on charity, LGBTQ, BLM, CRT, 1619, reparations, abortion, mass/illegal immigration, booze, gambling, pot, and other vices, abolition of the First and Second Amendments, patronage, political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, and age discrimination.)
https://www.galesburg.com/story/opinion/letters/2021/07/31/letter-churches-succumbing-immoral-ways/5439463001/
(FROM THE LETTER: A sign of the times? Many of our Christian denominations are succumbing to the whims and immoral ways of secular society. They call it “inclusion” and “diversity.” Many churches have accepted non-traditional marriage and also treat abortion as if our God would accept those “choices.” Compromising with those specific issues is not in accordance with his word or his will. Our church pews are full of sinners, but those sinners are seeking forgiveness. Our God loves all repentant sinners but he detests their sin. He will not accept nor forgive any unrepentant sin. All sin must be addressed from the pulpit even if addressing them steps on some toes and results in fewer people in the pews. Our churches have been under tremendous stress. We must stand up and speak up about what is happening in our specific denomination. Our church’s failure to deal with certain sin dishonors our relationship with God. We are dishonoring the name of Christ, and we will be held accountable. Christian churches must separate themselves from the liberal elements that accept what our God has deemed abominations. If they do not they will become irrelevant and will no longer be considered churches seeking God’s will. What is your lifestyle and would our God approve of it? Is it carnal or seeking God’s will? Are you seeking God’s purpose for your life or are your seeking worldly pleasure and self-gratification? Do not come to the end of your life regretting what your life has become or the choices you made. Doing right today will ensure that the tomorrows take care of themselves. That includes making right choices in our churches. Whether you believe it or not, there is no other name under heaven, but the name of a Jewish Rabbi, Jesus, whereby we will spend eternity with our creator. Those who believe otherwise, whether Methodists, Baptists, Mormons, Catholics, Jews, Hindus, Islamists or whatever, will not come to the peace our father offers unless we come to him through Christ. Our God is a just God and although he is a loving God, he will one day judge all of mankind. Churches that fail to deal with all sin compromise their relationship with God. They will be held accountable at that judgment.)

POLITICO ILLINOIS
— State Rep. Chris Miller is continuing to promote the false claim that former President Donald Trump won the 2020 presidential election. “Make no mistake, Donald J. Trump was overwhelmingly elected in this last election cycle,” Miller said at a political event to promote state Sen. Darren Bailey’s bid for governor. The Effingham Daily News first reported Miller’s comments. A spokesman for the Illinois GOP declined to comment but reiterated, “we recognize that Joe Biden won in November 2020.” And House Minority Leader Jim Durkin texted, simply, “Trump lost.” Get used to the mixed messages as the Illinois GOP tries to unite a party still divided over basic facts nine months after the election.- Shia Kapos
