FROM ILLINOIS CENTER-RIGHT SOURCES

GOPUSA ILLINOIS
— Which offices will be on the November 3, 2026 ballot in your precinct? Do you anticipate/expect helping elect candidates for those offices? What discourages you from doing that? For me, it includes far too many Republican candidates on ballots in my precinct since 2000 who have blamed me and blamed my GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters for their losses and/or near losses. I should write about those candidates and their major donors, political consultants, fundraisers, pollsters, campaign managers, campaign staff members, and campaign volunteers. Most commonly, they have hinted/implied/argued/shouted that I painted them as being more conservative than they wanted to be painted and that caused them to lose. I would focus on the aforesaid candidates who rejected the most planks in the Republican Party platform. I have long since stopped helping elect candidates in nonpartisan elections and  Republican primary elections a) because far too many of those candidates who lost those elections and primaries blamed me and blamed my GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters for their defeats and b) far too many of those candidates who won Republican primaries buy lost general elections blamed their defeats on my support for their opponents in the primaries. – Dave Diersen
http://www.gopillinois.com
— What are the following doing to elect Republicans on November 3, 2026: the leaders of a) the Illinois Republican Party, b) your Republican county party organization, and c) your Republican township party organization? They need to defend and advance the Republican Party platform, that is, they need to defend and advance conservative principles. – Dave Diersen
http://www.gopillinois.com
— What do you stress to defend and advance conservative principles? I stress the successes that I have had because I have always followed conservative principles. I earned a bachelor’s degree when I was 21. I earned master’s degrees when I was 27, 31, and 47. I earned professional certifications when I was 30, 32, 41, 45, 47, and 48. I earned a professional license when I was 32. I bought new cars when I was 17, 19, 20, 23, 25, 29, etc. I bought real estate when I was 24, 25, 27, 29, 35, etc. I got married when I was 29.  I was able to do the aforesaid notwithstanding my parents never having attended college, my father having been only the first of my ancestors to earn a high school diploma, my mother never having attended high school, and my having to work my way through college. – Dave Diersen
http://www.gopillinois.com
— What do you promote that your critics/opponents use against you? My critics/opponents use my promoting the Republican Party platform, that is, my promoting conservative principles. They especially use my promoting the platform’s personal responsibility, traditional marriage and family, right to life, immigration, illegal drugs, Second Amendment, and equal opportunity (no race of gender based preference giving) planks. – Dave Diersen
http://www.gopillinois.com
— What do your critics/opponents do? My critics/opponents destroy those like me who they cannot manipulate or dominate, who refuse to glorify and praise them, who refuse to pander to them, who refuse to serve as one of their operatives or dupes, who refuse to cover up their wrong doing, and/or who refuse to give them money. I should write about my critics/opponents and the many big adverse actions that they have taken against me. – Dave Diersen
http://www.gopillinois.com
—  What jobs have you had? According to my critics/opponents, all the jobs that I had were bad jobs that they would never stoop to take and that should have been given to minorities, females, younger people, and veterans. I did yard work 1962-1964, washed dishes 1964-1966, cleaned golf shoes, chipped slag, and pumped gasoline in 1966, delivered mail 1966-1969, worked on an automotive assembly line in 1970, sold tires, automotive services, and major appliances 1970-1971, pumped gasoline 1971-1972, collected delinquent taxes 1971-1980, and audited federal agencies 1980-1997. – Dave Diersen
http://www.gopillinois.com
— What are your demographics? My critics/opponents look down on, if not despise, if not hate those who share my demographics. I am conservative, Republican, White, male, older (born in 1948), non-poor, non-veteran, Protestant, German American, and my ancestors have been in America since 1844. Further, I was a Crete resident 1948-1972 and I have been a Wheaton resident since 1978. Further, I was a federal employee for almost 30 years, including almost 9 years working for IRS, and I have been a federal retiree for almost 28 years. – Dave Diersen
http://www.gopillinois.com
— How envious were your coworkers? My Democrat superiors, supervisors, coworkers, and subordinates were full of envy. They always painted themselves as being financially disadvantaged. They decried my earning a bachelor’s degree when I was 21, my earning master’s degrees when I was 27, 31, and 47, my earning professional certifications when I was 30, 32, 41, 45, 47, and 48, my earning a professional license when I was 32, my buying new cars when I was 17, 19, 20, 23, 25, 29, etc., my buying real estate when I was 24, 25, 27, 29, 35, etc., my getting married when I was 29, etc. They hinted/implied/argued/shouted that I would never have been able to do the aforesaid a) if I had not avoided the draft and b) if my wife and I had children. – Dave Diersen
http://www.gopillinois.com
— What Caste were you born into? My critics/opponents stress a) that my parents were Protestant and German American, b) that neither of my parents attended college, c) that my father was only the first of my ancestors to earn a high school diploma, d) that he never earned more than $50,000/year in today’s dollars, e) that my mother never attended high school, f) that I had to work my way through college, g) that none of my degrees are from Ivy League universities, h) that I was a federal employee for almost 30 years, i) that I have been a federal retiree for almost 28 years, and j) that I never earned more than $153,151/year in today’s dollars. – Dave Diersen

https://legalinsurrection.com/2025/04/trump-admin-should-unleash-the-false-claims-act-to-end-discrimination-in-higher-education/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Many schools (including almost all “elite” universities) view their maintenance of Kendian “discrimination for the right reasons” programs in admissions, hiring, promotions, tenure, and funding to be moral imperatives, and thus either are flatly refusing to abide by the Trump administration’s demands, and/or are continuing their discriminatory programs sub rosa.)
