RIVERSIDE BROOKFIELD LANDMARK
— Democrats say that Lyons Township High School District 204 school board candidate Tim Vlcek acknowledges that he attended an Awake Illinois candidate training session in January, but that he says that he is not affiliated with Awake Illinois. I served as the chairman of TAPROOT Republicans of Illinois 2005-2012 and as a member of the Illinois Center Right Coalition (ICRC) Steering Committee 2003-2007. I should write a book about those who have blamed TAPROOT and ICRC the most for Republican defeats in Illinois, DuPage County, Milton Township, and Wheaton. I would focus on those who succeeded in a) ending my TAPROOT chairmanship and destroying TAPROOT and b) ending my ICRC Steering Committee service and destroying ICRC. I would focus on those who have hinted/implied/argued/shouted the loudest that TAPROOT and ICRC caused Republican candidates on ballots in my precinct to lose.

I am White. I passed the CPA examination on my first attempt in 1979 and I passed the Certified Internal Auditor examination on my first attempt in 1981. But to make it so that the percentage of those who pass the examinations on their first attempt is proportional base on race, will points be given and/or taken away from examination takers to make that happen based on race? For example, if more Asian Americans disproportionally pass the examinations on their first attempt, will points be taken away from them?)

https://www.americanthinker.com/blog/2023/02/the_names_of_some_of_the_51_anticonservative_american_businesses_may_surprise_you.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Ally Financial, Amalgamated Bank, Bank of America, Berkshire Bank, BMO Harris, Citigroup, Deutsche Bank, Eastern Bank, Fifth Third Bank, First Republic Bank, JPMorgan Chase, Morgan Stanley, PNC, Royal Bank of Canada, Scotiabank, TD Bank, Bancorp, Trillium Asset Management, Truist, US Bank, and Wells Fargo. . .When it comes to transportation, while the leftist airlines—Alaska, American, Southwest, United, and XPO Logistics—cannot refuse to do business based on ideological or religious considerations (the Civil Rights Act prevents that), they are big actors behind the scenes, pushing legislation advancing leftist policies. Thus, American Airlines actively fought against Florida’s Parental Rights in Education Act, while Southwest tries to shut down state laws enhancing election integrity. The major retail giants are also pushing leftism. We’ve seen it with Target, which has been in the forefront of Gay Pride for decades, but it may surprise you to learn that Walmart and Home Depot are also using their economic power to push leftist policies. “For example, 1792 Exchange notes Home Depot ‘advertised flyers to its employees about confronting their ‘white privilege, Christian privilege, heterosexual privilege, able-bodied privilege,’ etc.’” The leftist madness continues with food and beverage companies. We already knew about Ben & Jerry’s, Starbucks, Coca-Cola, and Kellogg’s (with a history of weird progressivism spanning more than 100 years), but you probably didn’t know that McDonald’s and JM Smucker were also on the leftist bandwagon. Again, they sell their products to everyone but use their profits to advance leftist political goals. Finally, we all know about the true biggies: The social media companies, Disney, Hollywood, Google (which was apparently developed with CIA funding). We’re seemingly surrounded.)

https://www.huffpost.com/entry/michael-steele-trump-grifters_n_63fdb512e4b08b1402dfba1c
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Michael Steele, former chair of the Republican National Committee, has a blunt message for anyone hoping to see improvements within the party in the age of Donald Trump and his “MAGA grifters.” “If you’re waiting for it to get better, it’s not going to happen,” he said while filling in as host of MSNBC’s “All In With Chris Hayes.” “The problem is that Trump’s movement within the party is rotten to the core,” he said. He pointed to the lengths people on the right have gone to court Trump loyalists, such as a new admission from Fox News that the network allowed people it knew to be dangerous liars on the air in order to continue to keep Trump supporters tuned in. He noted that the Trump wing of the party has embraced Jan. 6 rioters as well as characters such as “Dilbert” creator Scott Adams, who last week went on a racist tirade urging white people to “get the hell away from Black people,” and Kyle Rittenhouse, the shooter acquitted of murder charges after he killed two unarmed racial justice protesters in 2020. “A rational Republican party would not prop these folks up as heroes,” he said. “But the MAGA Republicans have sold their souls to Trump’s brand of culture-war politics ― and for the RNC, guys like Scott Adams are just another way to fundraise off of grift and grievance.” He urged the party to throw out the “MAGA grifters,” but didn’t seem optimistic that it would happen.)

I would focus on those who stress the many demographics that I share with Trump: conservative, Republican, White, male, older, heterosexual, draft-avoider, gun-owner, married, non-poor, Protestant, German American, and our ancestor have been in American for a long time.

Trump is losing his mind over DeSantis, to the point that he has to smear him and lie about him to attack him.)

— COMMENT: Democrats say “Supreme Court Seems Wary of Limiting Protections for Social Media Platforms. The case, concerning a law that gives websites immunity for suits based on their users’ posts, has the potential to alter the very structure of the internet.” My critics/opponents are beyond furious that Section 230 limits their ability to sue me. Since 2000, my critics/opponents have blamed me and blamed my GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters for all of their problems, for all of your problems, for all of my problems, and for all of everyone’s problems. Previously, they blamed me for what I did as a) Republican fundraiser for Wheaton Independence Day parades and fireworks 2005-2019, b) chairman of TAPROOT Republicans of Illinois 2005-2012, c) Milton Township Republican Organization webmaster 2008-2010 and 2000-2004, and d) Illinois Center Right Coalition Steering Committee member 2003-2007.
https://www.nytimes.com/2023/02/21/us/google-supreme-court-youtube.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The federal law at issue in the case, Section 230 of the Communications Decency Act, shields online platforms from lawsuits over what their users post and the platforms’ decisions to take content down. Limiting the sweep of the law could expose the platforms to lawsuits claiming they had steered people to posts and videos that promote extremism, advocate violence, harm reputations and cause emotional distress.)

https://www.mediaite.com/politics/gop-mega-donor-and-ex-trump-ambassador-endorses-desantis-dont-like-the-name-calling/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Politico’s Alex Isenstadt wrote on Tuesday that DeSantis’s event will “be scrutinized for which donors attend — including how many of them were once Trump backers who may be looking to defect from the former president to the Florida governor.” Isenstadt noted that DeSantis is currently making all the standard moves a candidate makes before jumping into a presidential race. The governor is about to release a book and is traveling the country to raise his national profile. Additionally, DeSantis has already won over many former Trump donors.)

MERRIAM WEBSTER
— Invitation (COMMENT: One could argue that because the February 20, 2023 DeSantis Elmhurst event was an “invitation-only” event, the following should be fully disclosed: a) who determined who was invited to attend and who was not invited to attend and why, b) which past and present Republican elected officials, party leaders, major donors, etc. who were invited did not attend and why, and c) who determined which reporters were invited to report on the event and who were not invited to report on the event and why. Since 2000, as your GOPUSA Illinois Editor, I have reported on who attended many such events in Illinois, in DuPage County, in Milton Township, and in Wheaton. I should write a book about my critics/opponents who have hinted/implied/argued/shouted the most since 2000 that no one should want to be listed in a GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletter as having attended an event. They hint/imply/argue/shout that if you are listed, that information will be viciously used against you. Immediately after my critics/opponents ended my TAPROOT Republicans of Illinois chairmanship, my Milton Township Republican Organization (MTRO) webmaster service, and my Illinois Center Right Coalition (ICRC) Steering Committee membership, they deleted all my reports on who had attended TAPROOT, MTRO, and ICRC events. Do not be surprised if/when my critics/opponents hint/imply/argue/shout a) that I am an operative/dupe for Trump and b) that Trump will destroy not only DeSantis, LaHood, and Hires, but that Trump will destroy each and every person that I listed as having attended the February 20, 2023 DeSantis Elmhurst event. Further, do not be surprised if/when my critics/opponents hint/imply/argue/shout that if you attended the event, you are not only not afraid of Trump, but that you are a Trump-hater.)

— COMMENT: Democrats say “Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis coming to speak to Chicago FOP Monday in Elmhurst.” If/when the location of this event is publicly announced, will hundreds/thousands of DeSantis supporters and opponents come?
https://www.chicagotribune.com/politics/elections/ct-desantis-coming-to-elmhurst-fop-20230216-pvj4zlc7effmhiufh4dozrqnum-story.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis, exploring a bid for the 2024 Republican presidential nomination, is scheduled to speak at an invite-only event Monday in Elmhurst to members of Chicago’s Fraternal Order of Police and potentially deliver some rhetorical political payback to Democratic Gov. J.B. Pritzker. The Presidents Day visit to a so-far undisclosed location in the Chicago area would represent an escalation of the feud between DeSantis and Pritzker, who has been the focus of some speculation as a potential 2024 Democratic presidential candidate if President Joe Biden does not seek to be nominated for a second term. In July, Pritzker was keynote speaker for a gathering of Florida Democrats in Tampa where he took aim at the Florida governor. Pritzker assailed DeSantis as “just Donald Trump with a mask on” and, more recently, has attacked the Republican’s policies blocking some teachings of racial and gay curriculum. In delivering his combined State of the State and budget address on Wednesday, though not mentioning DeSantis by name, Pritzker referred to a “virulent strain of nationalism plaguing our nation, led by demagogues who are pushing censorship” and the right wing who are waging an “ideological battle” that serves to “marginalize people and ideas they don’t like.” In January, Pritzker wrote a letter to the College Board, asking it not to change the advanced placement African American Studies course “in order to fit Florida’s racist and homophobic laws.” The College Board earlier this month said it was revising the AP course to eliminate lessons on Black Lives Matter and the reparations movement. But after the DeSantis administration criticized the curriculum as left leaning and lacking “educational value,” the College Board said the criticism amounted to “slander.” That prompted DeSantis to suggest earlier this week that his state might drop AP classes from its schools. The DeSantis political operation did not respond to a request for comment on the reasons behind the Florida governor’s visit, which is open only to members of the law enforcement community. But a DeSantis speech to Chicago’s FOP Lodge 7, set for an undisclosed location in west suburban Elmhurst, would appear to be aimed at attacking Pritzker and Democrats over outbreaks of violent crime in the city as the mayoral election nears. An invitation to the event said the location would be disclosed to registrants “48 hours prior to the event.” John Catanzara, head of the Chicago police union, as well as the city and state FOP, endorsed Pritzker’s Republican opponent, Darren Bailey, in last year’s governor campaign. The Chicago FOP has endorsed challenger Paul Vallas for Chicago mayor as Lori Lightfoot seeks a second term. Catanzara was not available for comment. A law enforcement source said DeSantis was supposed to talk to the Chicago FOP within the last two months but that event was canceled.)

PRITZKER
— Ron DeSantis’s dangerous and hateful agenda has no place in Illinois. Banning books, playing politics with people’s lives, and censoring history are antithetical to who we are. Every candidate hoping to hold public office in the land of Lincoln should condemn this event.

ELMHURST PATCH
— DeSantis Coming To Elmhurst: Chicago FOP. Chicago police officers have been invited to a “Back the Blue” event. – David Giuliani
https://patch.com/illinois/elmhurst/desantis-coming-elmhurst-chicago-fop
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis is planning to come to Elmhurst on Monday, according to the Chicago Fraternal Order of Police. On Thursday, the organization invited members to see the Republican governor at a yet-to-be-disclosed site in Elmhurst. Doors are set to open at 3:30 p.m. According to the invitation, the location will be revealed 48 hours before the “Back the Blue” event. The invitation said DeSantis would speak about law enforcement. Patch obtained the invitation Thursday afternoon. Organizers apparently did not want to alert the media at this point. The Florida governor’s office referred questions to the Florida Republican Party. Patch left an emailed message for comment with a GOP spokeswoman. At the event, active and retired officers are allowed to attend, but not their spouses. In a message to Patch, Mayor Scott Levin said he had heard DeSantis was coming to town. “I have no confirmed location, but I assume and hope that before Monday, they will coordinate with the city, if there’s a large turnout expected,” the mayor said. DeSantis has called Florida the state “where woke goes to die.” He is widely considered to be running for president. He was once seen as an ally of former President Donald Trump. But Trump has criticized DeSantis over the last few months, most recently calling him “Meatball Ron.”)

POLITICO
— COMMENT: Democrats say “DeSantis joins wild ride to City Hall.” I should write a book about hate-filled Trump-hating Democrat plants, Libertarian plants, Green plants, Independent plants, and RINOs in Wheaton, in Milton Township, in DuPage County, and in Illinois who blacklist me because I refuse to blacklist Trump. The aforesaid blacklisters want the Republican candidates on the April 4, 2023 ballot in my precinct to blacklist me.)
https://www.politico.com/newsletters/illinois-playbook/2023/02/17/desantis-joins-wild-ride-to-city-hall-00083413
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The nasty campaign ads are reaching a fever pitch in the Chicago mayor’s race, and Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis and chameleon Congressman George Santos have emerged as foils to attack Paul Vallas. DeSantis is coming to suburban Elmhurst on Monday to talk to members of Chicago’s Fraternal Order of Police in a hush-hush meeting. And Congressman Jesus “Chuy” Garcia is using the visit to attack Paul Vallas, who’s been endorsed by the FOP. “Paul Vallas must condemn the FOP for inviting Ron DeSantis, a dangerous and xenophobic authoritarian to our state,” Garcia said in a statement.)

— COMMENT: Democrats say “CNN’s Don Lemon regrets saying Nikki Haley past her prime.” When are people “in their prime?” According to Democrats, Libertarians, Greens, Independents, and RINOs, people are “in their prime” when they are their 20s, 30s, and 40s, and if they are not extremely successful by the time they are 40, they are failures. It is called age discrimination. I should write a book about that.

— COMMENT: Ever-increasingly, Democrats run America and talk and act like they believe that Republicans who are the following are White supremacists, Nazis, KKK members, haters, racists, sexists, bigots, and even worse things who should be gotten rid of once and for all: heterosexual, conservative, patriotic, White, male, older, married, non-poor, gun-owners, Christian, Protestant, Italian American, German American, and/or those whose ancestors have been in America for a long time. That does not justify January 6, but it explains it.

— COMMENT: Democrats say “White House physician says Biden remains ‘fit for duty’ after routine medical exam.” With this, it certainly looks like the Democrats will run Biden for President again in 2024. The exam did not include cognitive testing. What does Haley have to say about that? Since 2000, my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes have strongly hinted/implied/argued/shout that I have cognitive disorders, and that is why I have to spend so much time putting GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters together and sending them out. They hint/imply/argue/shout that if they, or if anyone who they control, put the newsletters together and sent them out, they could and would do it in far far far less time than it takes me.

— COMMENT: Democrats say “CNN’s Don Lemon Says Nikki Haley Is Past Her ‘Prime’ At 51—Here’s What Research Says.” When are people “in their prime?” According to Democrats, Libertarians, Greens, Independents, and RINOs, people are “in their prime” when they are their 20s, 30s, and 40s, and if they are not extremely successful by the time they are 40, they are failures. It is called age discrimination. I should write a book about that.
https://www.forbes.com/sites/kimelsesser/2023/02/16/cnns-don-lemon-says-nikki-haley-is-past-her-prime-at-51-heres-what-research-says/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: One research study published in Psychology of Women Quarterly found that the 50s is a woman’s prime of life, indicating that Haley is indeed in her prime. Better health, empty nests and higher income distinguished the 50s from the earlier and later periods of life for women. Women in their 50s also showed greater confidence, involvement and breadth of personality. Since the CNN discussion surrounded politics, a candidate’s prime may be defined by voter preferences. Again, Haley appears to be in her prime. One telling study found that male and female candidates in their 40s and 50s are preferred over candidates in their 30s, 60s and 70s. The researchers did not study candidates in their 80s. When it comes to cognitive and creative ability, yet another study suggests the 50s decade may be the prime time for some. The study examined 31 Nobel Prize winners in economics to determine when they made their most significant contributions. Those whose work was more conceptual peaked at age 25, but those whose work was more experimental peaked in their mid-50s. To be fair, some cognitive abilities peak at a younger age. Speed in processing information peaks at age 18 or 19, and short-term memory starts to drop off at around age 25. However, other abilities, like evaluating other people’s emotional states, peak in our 40s and 50s. In addition, wisdom, which refers to a deep understanding of different aspects of life, also peaks in midlife. Perhaps when Lemon referred to Haley not being in her prime, he was referring to her fertility or physical strength. In this case, he’d be correct. The peak for both men and women is much younger for these areas. Both men’s and women’s fertility starts to decline in their mid-30s, but women’s fertility declines much more rapidly than men’s. When it comes to muscle mass, physical strength and flexibility, men and women peak in their late 20s to early 30s. But none of these skills are required for a nation’s leader. Lemon’s comment is not just offensive because of Haley’s relatively young age but because women are devalued more than men as they age. When women’s bodies are no longer functioning at their peak and women are past their reproductive age, women are thought to be past their prime. This doesn’t happen to men in their fifties. Lemon cited Google as his source for women’s prime, suggesting the search engine would back up his assertions, “If you Google ‘when is a woman in her prime?’” Ironically, a Google search on that question now reveals news about Don Lemon’s comment. Whether or not you appreciate Nikki Haley’s politics, it’s tough to argue that she isn’t in her prime as a presidential candidate.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: State records show that Dan Proft’s People Who Play by the Rules PAC spent almost $36 million during the second half of 2022, mostly on advertising boosting Sen. Darren Bailey’s gubernatorial bid and opposing Gov. J.B. Pritzker. Of that, $2.4 million was spent on consulting. Former ABC7 political reporter Charles Thomas was paid $100,000 in two $50,000 installments. Thomas appeared in some of Proft’s ads praising Bailey. Tyrone Muhammed, the controversial founder of Ex-Cons for Community and Social Change, which bills itself as a violence interruption group, was paid $250,000 for consulting work. Proft’s Starfish Consulting was also a recipient of almost $535K. But the highest paid consultant for Proft’s PAC during the last six months of 2022 was a Chicago company called Salvo Page LLC, which got $800,000, plus another $111K for website services. Salvo Page is not registered as a company with the state of Illinois. The only campaign payments to the company disclosed to the state were made by Proft’s People Who Play by the Rules PAC. Google searches turn up nothing. Proft did not respond to repeated requests for comment over several days. A search of Salvo Page’s Chicago address on the State Board of Election’s website turned up a clue. Salvo Page shares a Chicago street address with Pipeline Media. The Columbia Journalism Review’s Tow Center has done extensive reporting on Pipeline and similar companies. According to that reporting, the company is run by Brian Timpone, a longtime Proft associate. I wasn’t able to reach Timpone. Richard Uihlein, who was the principal funder of Bailey’s campaign via Proft’s PAC as well as some direct contributions, controls a committee called Restoration PAC, which paid Pipeline and an affiliate company well over a million dollars last year for various services, CJR’s Tow Center reported last October. And that brings us to Republican Illinois attorney general candidate Tom DeVore. When DeVore busted the campaign contribution caps in his race last August with a $250,000 personal loan to his campaign committee, some thought he might be opening the door to large contributions, perhaps from the billionaire Richard Uihlein. Instead, all DeVore really did was allow Democratic incumbent Kwame Raoul to take a million-dollar contribution from Gov. Pritzker’s campaign fund – $940,100 more than Pritzker could’ve contributed had the contribution caps been in place. A few labor organizations also contributed sums slightly above the previous cap limit of $59,900, but it wasn’t much. DeVore received a $10,000 contribution from James Hoeg in late October, which was $4,000 more than he would’ve been able to receive had it not been for the caps being lifted (Hoeg, by the way, recently contributed $50,000 to Paul Vallas’ Chicago mayoral campaign). DeVore also received a $50,000 contribution in late September from the Anthony Marano Company (which sells produce to Chicago-area restaurants). The contribution was $38,000 above the by-then-negated limit. And that’s it. $42K is all DeVore appears to have netted from his cap-busting loan. There’s often an expectation when candidates loan money to their campaigns that they’ll spend most of it. Instead, DeVore reimbursed himself almost all of that cash, including a $200,000 payment on October 14, even though the campaign was entering its final few weeks, and then another $15,000 the day after election day. DeVore reported $226,072 in contributions starting the day after he loaned himself that money, which was just about $11,000 more than what DeVore reimbursed himself. Outside of the loan repayment, DeVore reported spending less than $142,000 in the fourth quarter, which ended December 31. By contrast, AG Raoul reported spending almost $1.9 million in the same quarter. DeVore spent just $8,642.98 on advertising during the fourth quarter. Raoul reported spending almost $1.7 million. In other words, DeVore did not run a campaign designed to win. But we pretty much knew that during the campaign itself. He got thumped by Raoul. DeVore did manage to elevate and give voice to some folks on the far right. Shannon Adcock was a significant DeVore contributor, kicking in $2,500 during September. Adcock is one of the founders of Awake Illinois, a far-right group that opposed pandemic mandates in schools that has since morphed into firing up moral panic over gays and trans people in schools, libraries and coffee shops. Vallas spoke at one of her events. DeVore is now busily lining up clients to fund a third lawsuit against the state’s assault weapons ban at $200 a person. He raised more than half a million dollars with that same flat fee to fund his first two suits.)

— Decline of marriage advances the leftist revolution – Don Feder (COIMMENT: Ever-increasingly, Democrats promote LGBTQ, that is, ever-increasingly, Democrats promote the decline of traditional marriage and family. Because I, my parents, my grandparents, my great grandparents, and the rest of my ancestors were products of traditional marriage and family, I was able to a) buy new cars when I was 17, 19, 20, 23, etc., b) earn college degrees when I was 21, 27, 31, and 48, c) buy a new town home when I was 24 and condos when I was 25 and 27, d) get married and buy a home in Wheaton with my wife when I was 29, e) pass the CPA examination on my first attempt when I was 30, f) pass the Certified Internal Auditor examination on my first attempt and become a licensed CPA when I was 32, g) have a home built in Wheaton with my wife when I was 35, h) etc.)

— Conservatives must wake up to the threat of government-endorsed racial categorization – Mike Gonzalez (COMMENT: Ever-increasingly, under the Democrats and under the RINOs, the more White that you are, the more that you are viciously demonized, viciously denigrated, viciously condemned as being a White supremacist, Nazi, KKK member, hater, racist, sexist, bigot, and even worse things who should be gotten rid of immediately. Ever-increasingly, Democrats and RINOs discriminate against Whites. Soon, the more White that you are, Democrats and RINOs will stop you from getting an education, getting and keeping jobs, owning vehicles and real estate, etc. They will start with Whites who are heterosexual, conservative, Republican, male, older, gun-owners, Protestant, Italian American, German American, and/or those whose ancestors have been in America for a long time. It is called political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, age discrimination, replacement theory, and even worse things. I should write a book about the aforesaid.

https://nymag.com/intelligencer/2023/02/what-would-2024-look-like-for-democrats-if-biden-retired.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The 2024 primary field could be even more crowded than it was four years earlier. There are several major Democratic officeholders thought to be waiting for the right moment to run for president. If Biden doesn’t run, that moment might arrive early for three governors: California’s Gavin Newsom, Illinois’s J.B. Pritzker, and Michigan’s Gretchen Whitmer. The first two governors have vast resources at their disposal, while the third checks an awful lot of boxes for Democrats valuing electability above all else.)

HARVARD BUSINESS SCHOOL
— FROM THE ARTICLE: “Pick one thing to focus on for the rest of your life!” What did you focus on in the past and what are you focusing on now? When I was young, I focused on a) making myself a productive member of society and b) making the most of my potential. I earned college degrees (NIU, B.S., management, 1970; Loyola, MBA, 1976; DePaul, M.S., accounting; 1980; and IIT, M.S., financial markets and trading, 1997), professional certifications (CPA, 1979; Certified Internal Auditor, 1981; Certified Fraud Examiner, 1990; Certified Government Financial Manager, 1994; Certified Financial Services Auditor, 1996; and Forensic Accountant, 1997), and a professional license (CPA, 1981). But the aforesaid all came crashing down in 1997 when I was 49 years old and my Democrat GAO superiors succeeded in making me take their early retirement “offer.” Starting in 2000, I have focused on helping elect Republican candidates on ballots in my precinct. I have been a Republican Precinct Committeeman since 1999 and the GOPUSA Illinois Editor since 2000. I served as the webmaster for the Milton Township Republican Organization (MTRO) 2000-2004 and 2008-2010, a member of the Illinois Center Right Coalition Steering Committee 2003-2007, the chairman of TAPROOT Republicans of Illinois 2005-2012, and the Republican fundraiser for Wheaton Independence Day parades and fireworks 2005-2019. But ever-increasing, my efforts to help elect Republican on ballots in my precinct is crashing down. Ever-increasingly, Illinois Republican Party, DuPage County Republican Central Committee, and MTRO leaders and Republican candidates on ballots in my precinct treat me like they blame me and blame what I have done to help elect them for their defeats. Ever-increasing, Republican candidates on ballots in my precinct act like they do not want me to help elect them. Most commonly, they hint/imply/argue/shout that I am “too conservative.” Ever-increasingly, they hint/imply/argue/shout that I share too many demographics with Trump and that my demographics are bad: conservative, Republican, White, male, old (74), draft-avoider, gun-owner, heterosexual, married, childless, union member for almost 12 years, federal employee for almost 30 years, federal retiree for more than 27 years, someone who was forced into early retirement when they were 49 years old, someone who has filed lawsuits, Protestant, 100% German American, my ancestors have been in America since 1844, Crete resident 1948-1972, Wheaton resident since 1978, etc. If you were me, what would you do about the aforesaid?

Of course, I would focus on those candidates who have blamed their losses a) on me since 2000, b) on my GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters since 2000, c) on my raising funds from them to help sponsor Wheaton Independence Day parades and fireworks 2005-2019, d) on what I did as the TAPROOT Republicans of Illinois chairman 2005-2012, e) on what I did as an Illinois Center Right Coalition Steering Committee member 2003-2007, and f) on my supporting their opponents in primary and/or nonpartisan elections. I would focus on candidates who lost U.S. Senate, U.S. House, Illinois statewide, Illinois Senate, Illinois House, DuPage countywide, DuPage 4th District, Milton Township, Wheaton citywide, Wheaton West District, and judicial races. I would focus on their political consultants, major donors, fundraisers, pollsters, campaign managers, campaign staff members, and campaign volunteers. I would focus on those candidates who I did the most to help elect since 2000, but who then have taken the most/biggest adverse actions against me to punish me for their losses.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: A medical watchdog group is criticizing Illinois’ new law that requires health-care workers to take racial bias training over “being a good doctor.” According to the Illinois Administrative Code, racial bias occurs automatically and unintentionally, affecting behaviors, judgments, and decisions. The medical watchdog group Do No Harm counters that “There is no credible evidence that physicians are biased, or healthcare is systemically racist.” Illinois passed the Health Care and Human Services Reform Act, which went into effect on January 1st, 2023, requiring health professionals to take one hour of “implicit bias training” in order to renew their license with the state. The legislation “recognized significant disparities in health outcomes between Black Illinois residents and other residents of the state, including higher rates of death from pregnancy-related causes, cardiovascular disease, cancer, and chronic diseases (including asthma); a higher rate of adverse childhood experiences (ACEs), which is associated with adverse health outcomes.” “Things that are related to diversity, equity, and inclusion are based on more divisive ideology than things that really have anything to do with being a good doctor,” wrote Laura Morgan, program manager for Do No Harm, who said she was fired from her Texas nursing job after 39 years for refusing to take a mandatory course “grounded in the idea that I’m racist because I’m white.” “The idea of implicit bias is grounded in the belief that white people treat those who aren’t white worse than those who are. It’s part of the woke assumption that society, including healthcare, suffers from ‘systemic racism,’” she wrote. “Accordingly, my own supposed implicit bias, which is a euphemism for ingrained racism, must be rooted out. Not only that, it must be replaced with preferential treatment for the nonwhite.“ “Patients, especially minorities, will experience the most harm. Their caregivers are being told to admit to unconscious racism. Why would you see a physician who supposedly hates you and will hurt your health?” she said. “I fear every healthcare professional will soon be forced to make the same awful decision I did: Falsely admit to being racist or abandon the medical field,” she wrote in an article published in the Wall Street Journal. According to a 2017 Harvard study, diversity training programs may actually worsen healthcare situations by exacerbating pre-existing biases.)

— Biden’s army of IRS auditors falls victim to hiring woes, ambiguous marching orders – Stephen Dinan (COMMENT: The Democrats who ran IRS in 1971 hired me to be a Revenue Officer because they could not find a qualified Democrat, minority, female, or veteran who would take the job. I was qualified because in 1970, I had passed the Federal Service Entrance Examination and I had earned a bachelor’s degree in management from NIU. They did not offer me a Revenue Agent job because I had not taken enough accounting courses. While I worked for IRS as a Revenue Officer, my goal was never to qualify myself for a new trade or business, that is, my goal was never to become a Revenue Agent.)
https://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2023/jan/18/bidens-army-irs-auditors-falls-victim-hiring-woes-/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: A tricky job market and lack of expedited hiring authority are making it difficult to bring on more people who can clear the hurdles. “A continued challenge the IRS faces is having to evaluate a high number of applicants in order to find successful candidates both willing to accept the job offer and also be able to pass the required background checks,” the Treasury Inspector General for Tax Administration said. . .“Even once they manage to make the hires, training will be a long process and the agency will continue to deal with attrition,” he told The Washington Times. “In fact, attrition may increase, and the quality of the typical IRS auditor will probably drop since the IRS won’t be able to be as selective in hiring if it expects to almost double the size of the agency in less than nine years.”)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: Republican voters duped into casting their ballots for a congressional candidate whose entire resume was a lie are outraged. How could someone make it through a whole campaign season without the falsehoods being revealed? It was too late for them to take back their votes, and George Santos now serves as the U.S. Representative from New York’s 3rd District for the next two years. Santos had claimed Jewish heritage, running a pet charity, working for finance giant Goldman Sachs, and attending an exclusive New York prep school. His claims were all false. He went from earning an income of $50,000 on a venture capital fund that federal prosecutors called a Ponzi scheme in 2020 to claiming assets totaling nearly $11 million in 2022, the local newspaper the North Shore Leader reported. The newspaper editorialized on a candidate who it saw as a complete fraud. No one listened. No one followed up. “This would all have been exposed before the election if local newspapers were not running on fumes,” former Democratic U.S. Sen. Claire McCaskill tweeted. Across the country, those fumes consist of decimated reporting staff – if a newspaper still exists.)

GOPUSA ILLINOIS
— The Illinois Republican Party (IRP) asks in a survey if it should focus on Inflation, Corruption, Crime, Firing Pritzker, Energy, Taxes, Education, or Other. Political parties exist to help elect candidates who can and will defend and advance their platform. The Republican Party platform is conservative. The IRP should do everything that it can to defend and advance the Republican Party platform including its individual responsibility, traditional marriage/family, right to life, immigration, illegal drugs, Second Amendment, and equal opportunity (no race or gender based preference giving) planks. The IRP should oppose Democrat promotion of dependency on government and charity, LGBTQ, abortion, mass/illegal immigration, booze, gambling, pot, and other vices, diminishment of First and Second Amendment rights, patronage, political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, and age discrimination. The IRP should oppose Democrat promotion of CRT, 1619, BLM, reparations, and wokeness/wokeism. Because Democrats use Affirmative Action (AA), Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) to get rid of Republicans, the IRP should oppose AA and DEI. The IRP should focus on recruiting candidates who can and will defend and advance the Republican Party platform. – Dave Diersen

I washed dishes in Chicago Heights 1964-1966; cleaned golf shoes in Flossmoor in 1966; chipped slag and pumped gasoline in South Chicago Heights in 1966; delivered mail in Park Forest 1966-1969; and worked on an automobile assembly line in Belvidere and as a security guard in DeKalb in 1970. I used the money that I earned to pay for a) tuition and books at UIC 1966-1968 and at NIU 1969-1970, b) room and board at NIU 1969-1970, and c) a new 1966 Pontiac Tempest Sprint, a new 1968 Oldsmobile 442, and a new 1969 Dodge Charger SE.

AMERICAN CONSERVATIVE
— America, Tear Down This Flag – Jeremy Carl
https://www.theamericanconservative.com/america-tear-down-this-flag/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The pride flag has quickly become one of America’s national symbols. Once exclusive province of gay ghettos like San Francisco’s Castro District, you can now find pride flags everywhere in a bewildering variety of colors and patterns. They fly from the flagpoles of our embassies, over our cabinet departments, at the FBI, and even decorating the White House. The transgressive has become not just mainstream, but the establishment itself. Whatever the professed intensions of some individuals who fly it, the public meaning of the pride flag, and in particular the public meaning of flying a pride flag at the centers of government power, is not a demand for tolerance. Rather, it is a demand that we worship new gods and new rulers. People understand this intuitively. It is no accident that after the left’s gay marriage victory in Obergefell v. Hodges and the subsequent capitulation of the GOP several years later enshrining Obergefell in federal law, the White House, the literal center and symbol of American regime power, festooned itself in the colors of the pride flag. The flag is a fundamentally political symbol. The left understands this, which is why they push for the pride flag’s ubiquity. Conservatives, for the most part, do not.)

— COMMENT: Democrats say “Religiously, the 118th Congress doesn’t reflect America,” that is, Democrats crow about their success in getting rid of Christian voters, and especially Protestant voters. Ever-increasingly, Democrats in Congress pass laws that are anti-Christian and especially anti-Protestant.
https://federalnewsnetwork.com/government-news/2023/01/survey-religiously-congress-doesnt-reflect-america/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The Congress “remains largely untouched by two trends that have long marked religious life in the United States: a decades-long decline in the share of Americans who identify as Christian, and a corresponding increase in the percentage who say they have no religious affiliation,” said the Pew report, released Tuesday. It was based on a CQ Roll Call survey of members of Congress. Nearly 88% of members of Congress identify as Christian, compared with only 63% of U.S. adults overall. That includes 57% of congresspersons who identify as Protestant and 28% as Catholic, both higher than national rates. Also, 6% of members of Congress identify as Jewish, compared with 2% of the overall population. While 29% Americans claim no religious affiliation, they’d have to squint to see themselves reflected in Congress. The only overtly non-religious members are U.S. Rep. Jared Huffman, D-Calif., who identifies as humanist, and Sen. Kyrsten Sinema, independent of Arizona, who says she’s religiously unaffiliated.)

I should write a book about the biggest adverse actions that have been taken against me, who took those adverse actions against me, and who could and should have come to my defense, but did not. I have been Milton Township Republican Organization (MTRO) member since 1999. Since 2021, Wheaton has stopped me from raising funds from Republicans to help sponsor Wheaton’s Independence Day parades and fireworks. In 2015, DuPage County gerrymandered my precinct. In 2012, TAPROOT Republicans of Illinois leaders ended my chairmanship or the organization. In 2007, Illinois Center Right Coalition (ICRC) leaders ended my service on ICRC’s Steering Committee. In 2006, ICRC leaders almost succeeded in censuring me for my GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters. I would focus on past and present leaders of MTRO, DuPage County Republican Central Committee, Illinois Republican Party, TAPROOT, and ICRC. I would focus on those who read my GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters.)

ELMHURST PATCH
— COMMENT: Democrats say “Nazi Candidate Sign In Elmhurst Hopeful’s Yard. She says someone posted the sign without her consent. She is running for City Council.” I should write a book about Republican candidates on ballots in my precinct since 2000 who have hinted/implied/argued/shouted that they did not want my support. I would focus on those Republican candidates who lost elections. I would focus on those Republican candidates who reject the individual responsibility, traditional marriage/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. I would focus those Republican candidates who blame me and blame my GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters for their defeats.

I would focus on those Republican candidates who have hinted/implied/argued/shouted that they disapprove of, if not despise, if not hate my demographics. I am Protestant and 100% German national origin.
https://patch.com/illinois/elmhurst/nazi-candidates-sign-elmhurst-hopefuls-yard
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Many may remember that house on South York Street in Elmhurst with more than 50 campaign signs earlier this year. The house is owned by Laura Vevers, who is running for Ward 6 alderman against Guido Nardini in the April 4 election. It appears just about all the signs were for Republicans, many of them running for DuPage County Board. On Tuesday, Patch obtained a photo of the yard full of signs. One of the signs is prompting criticism. It was for Art Jones, a candidate for Congress in the 6th District. His sign read, “Time to put America first.” The sign included the symbol of an elephant, indicating he was running as a Republican. But he was an independent write-in candidate, ultimately getting only a dozen votes. In 2018, in the 3rd Congressional District, Jones drew nearly 60,000 votes, or 26 percent, losing to a Democrat Daniel Lipinski. Before that election, the Illinois Republican Party repudiated Jones, calling him a Nazi. He is a Holocaust denier who has said he was a former leader in the American Nazi Party. In 2018, Jones told Politico that he was running against a “two-party, Jew-party, queer-party system.” On Tuesday, Patch asked Vevers through Facebook about the sign. In response, she wrote, “Who took the picture, was it the person who planted the sign? I don’t know or SUPPORT Art Jones or his philosophy.” Asked further about the sign, she said, “The fact is, someone put the sign in my yard without my consent.” Vevers and Nardini are vying for the seat held by Alderman Mike Honquest, who decided against running after a decade on the City Council. Ward 6 is in Elmhurst’s southeastern corner. Emily Bastedo is the other Ward 6 alderman.)

— COMMENT: Democrats say “George Santos’s Early Life: Odd Jobs, Bad Debts and Lawsuits.” Ever-increasingly, Democrats hint/imply/argue/shout that if candidates who have Democrat demographics run as Republicans, it is a) because they are severely flawed, b) because they know that the Republican Party wants candidates who have Democrat demographics, and/or c) because they have been rejected by the Democrat Party.

https://www.nytimes.com/2022/12/28/us/politics/george-santos-resume-lies-politicians.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Mark Kirk’s 2010 and 2016 Senate campaigns Mark Kirk, who was a five-term House member from Illinois, leaned heavily on his military accomplishments in his 2010 run for the Senate seat once held by Barack Obama. But the Republican’s representation of his service proved to be deeply flawed. Mr. Kirk’s biography listed that he had been awarded the “Intelligence Officer of the Year” while in the Naval Reserve, a prestigious military honor that he never received. He later apologized, but that was not the only discrepancy in his military résumé. In an interview with the editorial board of The Chicago Tribune, Mr. Kirk accepted responsibility for a series of misstatements about his service, including that he had served in the Persian Gulf war of 1991, that he once commanded the Pentagon war room and that he came under fire while flying intelligence missions over Iraq. Mr. Kirk attributed the inaccuracies as resulting from his attempts to translate “Pentagonese” for voters or because of inattention by his campaign to the details of his decades-long military career. Still, Illinois voters elected Mr. Kirk to the Senate in 2010, but he was defeated in 2016 by Tammy Duckworth, a military veteran who lost her legs in the Iraq war. In that race, Mr. Kirk’s website falsely described him as an Iraq war veteran.)

Because of the aforesaid, my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes have hinted/implied/argued/shouted that my score was so high because I benefitted tremendously from discrimination against minorities, against females, against non-Protestants, against non-German Americans, and against those whose ancestors had not been in America for a long time.)

They all had less job-related work experience, less job-related education, and/or fewer professional certifications and licenses than I had. I started working for IRS in 1971 and for GAO in 1980. 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. I passed the Certified Internal Auditor examination on my first attempt in 1981. I became a licensed CPA in 1981 and a Certified Fraud Examiner in 1990, Government Financial Manager in 1994, Financial Services Auditor in 1996, and Forensic Accountant in 1997. I earned a master’s degree in financial markets from IIT in 1997.

I would focus on those leaders who have taken the most/biggest adverse actions against me.

— Collateral damage (COMMENT: Have you been collateral damage? GAO works for Congress. The Democrats who ran GAO during the 1980s and 1990s used Republican-led GAO budget cuts to get rid of GAO employees who were Republican. My Democrat GAO superiors used those budget cuts to waste my GAO career and to force me to take their early retirement “offer” in 1997 when I was 49 years old. My high-level critics/opponents have always hinted/implied/argued/shouted that notwithstanding one exception, because Gingrich, Hastert, and my Republican U.S. Senators and U.S. Representatives did not come to my defense, I was not collateral damage. I should write a book about what Gingrich, Hastert, and my Republican U.S. Senators and U.S. Representatives did that showed a) that they reject the Rutan decision (SEE: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rutan_v._Republican_Party_of_Illinois ), b) that they reject the equal opportunity (no race or gender based preference giving) plank in the Republican Party platform, and/or c) that they promote patronage, political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, and/or age discrimination.)

CHICAGO TRIBUNE
— COMMENT: Ever-increasingly, those who do not want Biden or Trump to run again demonize them, denigrate them, and condemn them as being old. I should write a book about age discrimination. My Democrat IRS and GAO superiors demonized me, denigrated me, and condemned me as being old because I did not make a) GS-13, currently $104,915/year, before I was 25 in 1973, b) G-14, currently $123,978/year, before I was 30, c) GS-15, currently $145,831/year, before I was 35, and d) Senior Executive Service, currently $176,300/year before I was 40. Extremely few federal employees make the aforesaid promotion deadlines. I did not make GS-13 until I was 38. If I had been a Democrat, minority, female, and/or veteran, they would not have imposed the aforesaid promotion deadlines on me. To justify their age discrimination, they turned against me my earning an MBA from Loyola in 1976, my passing the CPA examination on my first attempt in 1979, my earning a master’s degree in accounting from DePaul in 1981, and my passing the Certified Internal Auditor examination on my first attempt and becoming a licensed CPA in 1981. They hinted/implied/argued/shouted that with my having the aforesaid, IF I WAS ANY GOOD, I should have easily made the aforesaid promotion deadlines.

https://dupagepolicyjournal.com/stories/636737790-nebraske-i-find-it-very-offensive-to-have-a-religious-symbol-decorated-as-a-gay-pride-display
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Community Unit School District (CUSD) 200 parent Don Nebraske is expressing his disappointment in the support of a gay pride Christmas tree in the school’s public area. Nebraske reached out to Dr. Jeff Schuler, superintendent of District 200 schools, concerning the matter. He said the superintendent stated, “he does not intend to take any further action on this matter.” Nebraske was sure that if he were from the LGBT community and contacted Schuler about something that he “was deeply offended by, he would take immediate action.” “I find it very offensive to have a religious symbol decorated as a gay pride display and I have asked that it is removed from the display at Edison Middle School during this holiday season in which Christians celebrate the birth of Jesus Christ,” Nebraske said in an email. “When I spoke to Dr. Schuler, the CUSD200 superintendent on the phone this afternoon, he said that the Christmas tree is not a religious symbol. I find that response odd because the item that we are discussing is called a Christmas tree and it is displayed during the Christmas season. Christians celebrate the birth of Jesus Christ during this Christmas season. According to Dr. Schuler, there is no connection between Christmas trees and Christmas.” Nebraske marvels “how the superintendent or the principal find it to be a benefit to the children of Edison Middle School and the rest of CUSD200 to mix religious and political/sexual symbols” in schools.)

— Husband Buys Wife’s Childhood Historic Home Built in 1906, Transforms It Back to Its Former Glory (COMMENT: Tomorrow, sadly, I am selling 1286 Wood Street Crete ( https://www.zillow.com/homedetails/1286-Wood-St-Crete-IL-60417/5461313_zpid/ & https://www.redfin.com/IL/Crete/1286-Wood-St-60417/home/23199039 & https://www.coldwellbankerhomes.com/il/crete/1286-wood-st/pid_50438904/ ). I lived in that home 1954-1972. My brother lived in that home from 1954 until he recently died. My mother lived in that home 1954 until she died in 2016. My father lived in that home 1922-1945 and then 1954 until he died in 1969. My grandfather on my father’s side had the home built in 1926 on land that his grandfather on his father’s bought in 1864. While I lived in the home, I attended Trinity Lutheran Grade School in Crete 1954-1961, Hope Lutheran Grade School in Park Forest 1961-1962, Crete-Monee High School 1962-1966, UIC 1966-1968 and 1971, NIU 1969-1970, and Loyola in 1972. While I lived in that home, I did yard work and delivered newspapers in Crete 1962-1964; washed dishes in Chicago Heights 1964-1966; cleaned golf shoes in Flossmoor, chipped slag and pumped gasoline in South Chicago Heights in 1966; delivered mail in Park Forest 1966-1969; worked on an automobile assembly line in Belvidere and as a security guard in DeKalb in 1970; sold tires, automotive services, and major appliances in Chicago Heights 1970-1971; pumped gasoline in Chicago Heights 1971-1972; took on-the-job IRS training courses in Chicago in 1971, and collected delinquent taxes in the Harvey area in 1972. While I lived in that home, I drove my parents’ 1961 and 1967 Chevrolet Biscaynes, my 1958 and 1961 Chevrolet Bel Airs, 1966 Pontiac Tempest Sprint, 1968 Oldsmobile 442, 1969 Dodge Charger SE, and 1972 Corvette. I stored my 1972 Corvette in the home’s garage 1971-1984. Sadly, the home needs lots of restoration and updating which I look forward to seeing the new owners do. I remember seeing the home’s coal furnace and radiators being replaced with a fuel oil furnace and air ducts in the late 1950s. I remember seeing the fuel oil furnace being replaced with a natural gas furnace in the early 1960s. I look forward to seeing the new owners replace the home’s roof, electric wiring, plumbing, windows, front steps, kitchen sink, bathtub, toilet, garage roof, garage doors, etc. I look forward to seeing them insulating the home’s walls, adding central air conditioning, and paving its driveway. The following factors hindered updating the home: my father’s sudden death in 1969, my mother’s and brother’s health problems and limited income, and the economic decline of the home’s neighborhood and Crete in general.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: Brimming with history and wistful ruminations, Jessica Miller’s old childhood home sits nestled on Union Street in the heart of downtown Concord, North Carolina. She and her family first moved in around the late 1980s, but its once-glorious Edwardian architecture—displaying a grand columned façade—was originally erected in 1906 by the Archibalds, according to the current owner. A line of inhabitants of historic interest then followed. Gradually, over the years, the manor fell into disrepair. Little did Jessica know she would move back into that picturesque manor on that historic street with her husband, Adam Miller, to completely preserve and restore it to its former glory—and then some. The couple now have five kids together, and Adam, 38, preserves antique homes for a living and documents his projects on social media. Jessica, 35, handles the home design. “Her whole childhood revolved around the house and friends and family, congregating and sharing memories,” Adam told The Epoch Times. “Our house was definitely the epicenter for a big, giant family.” As the decades wore on and her parents got on in years, the vintage home became too much for them to maintain. The antiquated abode required extra-special care. “These older houses, they have a special internal gutter system and so when that fails, by the time anybody noticed, they caused a huge amount of damage,” Adam said. “As [Jessica’s] parents got older, they just weren’t really prepared to rebuild the whole porch and the columns.” A knock on the door almost led to their selling the place, but the deal fell through. Then, Adam saw an opportunity to preserve a piece of North Carolinian history. He offered the same terms. Jessica’s parents accepted, and the Millers moved in. The Millers have worked on other historic homes before—they flip homes for a living—but this would be the first one they would live in. “We didn’t anticipate it being Jessica’s childhood home,” he said. “We’d made offers on other houses on the street, it was just right time, right place sort of scenario.” Taking possession in November 2020, they knew straight away they needed to tackle the roof and foundation—that’s where the majority of problems lie.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: “Biden campaigned on it. There were people showing up to our border wearing Biden T-shirts,” the GOP lawmaker said. “There’s nothing hidden around the world about what this administration is doing and what Democrats on Capitol Hill are doing to say that our borders are wide open.” Roy continued: “When you put a big neon sign saying if you come here and claim asylum or heck even now you don’t even have to claim asylum. In Eagle Pass where Bill Melugin was just reporting from, there’s a four-acre facility processing people, they don’t even have to claim asylum or get processed for credible fear.” Todd Bensman, senior national security fellow at the Center for Immigration Studies, told Newsweek on Sunday, “Democratic candidates in 2019 were going on national television doing debates. They would raise their hands saying they’d give migrants healthcare as soon as they crossed the border.” Bensman added: “All candidates had anti-deportation platforms. That’s when I noticed a surge in migrants crossing the border. They would say we’re waiting for a Democrat to get into office. And the Democrats followed through on their campaign promise.”)

— The ‘asylum’ sham means we’ll see a continued mess at the border – David E. Graham, Charlottesville (COMMENT: Ever-increasingly, Democrats encourage illegal immigration.)
https://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/2022/12/18/asylum-sham-means-continued-mess-southern-border/
(FROM THE LETTER: To qualify for asylum, individuals must demonstrate that they have suffered or fear that they will suffer persecution because of race, religion, nationality, membership in a particular social group or political opinion. Clearly, the overwhelming majority of those arriving at the southern border do not meet any of these criteria. Yet, year after year, under our current immigration policy, thousands upon thousands of “asylum seekers” are admitted to the United States, processed and sent on their way, with only the understanding that they must “appear” at some distant date for a hearing at which their claim for asylum will almost certainly be denied. Any incentive to make such an appearance is thus virtually nonexistent. The result is, in effect, an “open border” — a perception shared throughout Central and South America, as well as elsewhere. The United States is under no moral or international or domestic legal obligation to admit and shelter those who seek to circumvent the established immigration system by simply engaging in the demonstrated charade of declaring that they seek “asylum.” Moreover, the expenditure of millions of dollars for additional border facilities and asylum hearing officers will offer no meaningful solution to this ongoing national crisis. It is the asylum process itself that must be restructured. Toward this end, the issuance of a U.S. statement of policy indicating that those who seek asylum in the United States must apply for this status at a U.S. Embassy or consulates within their country of citizenship merits serious consideration.)
