In American politics, everything is either conservative or liberal. Political parties exist to help elect candidates who can/will defend/advance their platform. The Republican Party exists to promote conservative principles. The Democrat Party exists to promote liberal principles. The sequence should be this: a) political parties develop and approve their platforms, b) political parties encourage candidates who can/will defend/advance their platforms to run in primaries, and c) the candidates who win those primaries defend/advance those platforms while they are in office.
TRUMP FOR PRESIDENT
— RNC Platform Committee Adopts 2024 Republican Party Platform. Document Reflects 20 GOP Principles, Roadmap to Make America Great Again
https://djt.nucleusemail.com/amplify/v/eQjBXyTuzC
(MILWAUKEE, Wis. – Today, the Republican National Committee (RNC) Platform Committee adopted President Donald J. Trump’s 2024 Republican Party Platform with overwhelming support– a pro-American agenda that stands in stark contrast to the record of weakness, failure, and dishonesty created by Joe Biden. President Trump’s platform serves as a contract with the American voter that makes clear what we can and will deliver under a President Trump administration with the Republican Party leading the country for the next four years. “President Trump’s 2024 Republican Party Platform articulates his vision to Make America Great Again in a way that is concise and digestible for every voter,” said Trump Campaign Senior Advisors Chris LaCivita and Susie Wiles. “While Joe Biden and Democrats argue about who will be at the top of their ticket and have implemented policies that have raised prices on everyday families, opened the floodgates to migrant crime via wide-open borders, shackled American energy with red tape forced by Washington bureaucrats, and sewn chaos across the world through weak foreign policy, President Trump will Make America Great Again through these America First principles.” “Only President Trump can restore our economy, restore our Southern Border, and restore America’s standing in the world,” said RNC Chairman Michael Whatley and RNC Co-Chair Lara Trump. “His 2024 Republican Party Platform is a bold roadmap that will undo the devastating damage that Joe Biden’s far-left policies have done to this country, power President Trump to a historic victory in November, and Make America Great Again. Read the 2024 Platform, as passed by Committee, below: Our Nation’s History is filled with the stories of brave men and women who gave everything they had to build America into the Greatest Nation in the History of the World. Generations of American Patriots have summoned the American Spirit of Strength, Determination, and Love of Country to overcome seemingly insurmountable challenges. The American People have proven time and again that we can overcome any obstacle and any force pitted against us. But now we are a Nation in SERIOUS DECLINE. Our future, our identity, and our very way of life are under threat like never before. Today we must once again call upon the same American Spirit that led us to prevail through every challenge of the past if we are going to lead our Nation to a brighter future. For decades, our politicians sold our jobs and livelihoods to the highest bidders overseas with unfair Trade Deals and a blind faith in the siren song of globalism. They insulated themselves from criticism and the consequences of their own bad actions, allowing our Borders to be overrun, our cities to be overtaken by crime, our System of Justice to be weaponized, and our young people to develop a sense of hopelessness and despair. They rejected our History and our Values. Quite simply, they did everything in their power to destroy our Country. In 2016, President Donald J. Trump was elected as an unapologetic Champion of the American People. He reignited the American Spirit and called on us to renew our National Pride. His Policies spurred Historic Economic Growth, Job Creation, and a Resurgence of American Manufacturing. President Trump and the Republican Party led America out of the pessimism induced by decades of failed leadership, showing us that the American People want Greatness for our Country again. Yet after nearly four years of the Biden administration, America is now rocked by Raging Inflation, Open Borders, Rampant Crime, Attacks on our Children, and Global Conflict, Chaos, and Instability. Like the Heroes who built and defended this Nation before us, we will never give up. We will restore our Nation of, by, and for the People. We will Make America Great Again. America needs determined Republican Leadership at every level of Government to address the core threats to our very survival: Our disastrously Open Border, our weakened Economy, crippling restrictions on American Energy Production, our depleted Military, attacks on the American System of Justice, and much more. To make clear our commitment, we offer to the American people the 2024 GOP Platform to Make America Great Again! It is a forward-looking Agenda that begins with the following twenty promises that we will accomplish very quickly when we win the White House and Republican Majorities in the House and Senate.
1. SEAL THE BORDER, AND STOP THE MIGRANT INVASION
2. CARRY OUT THE LARGEST DEPORTATION OPERATION IN AMERICAN HISTORY
3. END INFLATION, AND MAKE AMERICA AFFORDABLE AGAIN
4. MAKE AMERICA THE DOMINANT ENERGY PRODUCER IN THE WORLD, BY FAR!
5; STOP OUTSOURCING, AND TURN THE UNITED STATES INTO A MANUFACTURING SUPERPOWER
6. LARGE TAX CUTS FOR WORKERS, AND NO TAX ON TIPS!
7. DEFEND OUR CONSTITUTION, OUR BILL OF RIGHTS, AND OUR FUNDAMENTAL FREEDOMS, INCLUDING FREEDOM OF SPEECH, FREEDOM OF RELIGION, AND THE RIGHT TO KEEP AND BEAR ARMS
8. PREVENT WORLD WAR THREE, RESTORE PEACE IN EUROPE AND IN THE MIDDLE EAST, AND BUILD A GREAT IRON DOME MISSILE DEFENSE SHIELD OVER OUR ENTIRE COUNTRY — ALL MADE IN AMERICA
9. END THE WEAPONIZATION OF GOVERNMENT AGAINST THE AMERICAN PEOPLE
10. STOP THE MIGRANT CRIME EPIDEMIC, DEMOLISH THE FOREIGN DRUG CARTELS, CRUSH GANG VIOLENCE, AND LOCK UP VIOLENT OFFENDERS
11. REBUILD OUR CITIES, INCLUDING WASHINGTON DC, MAKING THEM SAFE, CLEAN, AND BEAUTIFUL AGAIN.
12. STRENGTHEN AND MODERNIZE OUR MILITARY, MAKING IT, WITHOUT QUESTION, THE STRONGEST AND MOST POWERFUL IN THE WORLD
13. KEEP THE U.S. DOLLAR AS THE WORLD’S RESERVE CURRENCY
14. FIGHT FOR AND PROTECT SOCIAL SECURITY AND MEDICARE WITH NO CUTS, INCLUDING NO CHANGES TO THE RETIREMENT AGE
15. CANCEL THE ELECTRIC VEHICLE MANDATE AND CUT COSTLY AND BURDENSOME REGULATIONS
16. CUT FEDERAL FUNDING FOR ANY SCHOOL PUSHING CRITICAL RACE THEORY, RADICAL GENDER IDEOLOGY, AND OTHER INAPPROPRIATE RACIAL, SEXUAL, OR POLITICAL CONTENT ON OUR CHILDREN
17. KEEP MEN OUT OF WOMEN’S SPORTS
18. DEPORT PRO-HAMAS RADICALS AND MAKE OUR COLLEGE CAMPUSES SAFE AND PATRIOTIC AGAIN
19. SECURE OUR ELECTIONS, INCLUDING SAME DAY VOTING, VOTER IDENTIFICATION, PAPER BALLOTS, AND PROOF OF CITIZENSHIP
20. UNITE OUR COUNTRY BY BRINGING IT TO NEW AND RECORD LEVELS OF SUCCESS
*****
When America is united, confident, and committed to our principles, it will never fail. Today and together, with Love for our Country, Faith in our People, and Trust in God’s Good Grace, we will Make America Great Again!)

I worked hard to elect Jim Rasins County Auditor in 2000 and 2004. I worked hard to elect Bob Grogan County Auditor in 2008, 2012, 2016, and 2020. Of course, I am working hard to elect Grogan this year. Grogan’s deputy was Peter Balgemann who is one of my relatives.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: For nearly four years, the DuPage County Auditor’s office has not provided a quarterly financial report, a detailed accounting of the county government’s revenues, appropriations, expenditures, and encumbrances. The reports, which are mandated by the State of Illinois, came to a halt shortly after a razor thin election in 2020, in which the current auditor Bill White won by a 75-vote margin, later reduced to 58 votes following a recount against Bob Grogan. Not long after the election, several key staff members from the auditor’s office resigned. “We had a king-sized bed of obligations and a queen-sized sheet of resources,” White said during Tuesday’s county board meeting. “Our target is to complete the quarterly reports by the end of July, we’ll do it the old-fashioned way, the manual way.” The auditor’s office was offered additional staff, according to DuPage County Board Chair Deborah Conroy, but the real hindrance was technology. Going forward the auditor’s office is requesting additional software to help automate the reporting process, White said. But some county board members were left questioning why it has taken so long to get up to speed. “If you needed help why didn’t you come to the board … four years without quarterly reports, it is unacceptable,” District 5 Commissioner Dawn DeSart said during the meeting. Every year the county receives an external audit report from the Chicago-based accounting firm Baker Tilly, however, these reports lack the detailed examination expected from the auditor’s office. “The internal audit looks way more into the minuscule, detailed items, plus the external auditor does not detect fraud … this is where our internal auditor comes in,” District 1 Commissioner Cindy Cahill said during Tuesday’s meeting. Also delayed is the auditor’s report on the county clerk’s office, which came under the scrutiny of the board and DuPage County State’s Attorney’s Office, after $224,000 in invoices submitted for purchases were not properly approved or made without going through a bidding process. The report cannot be publicly released until the clerk’s office receives and has a chance to reply to its contents, according to White. The clerk’s office will have a week to respond, White said. “We need it done, the people of DuPage need it done, this is what you’re elected to do and frankly there’s no excuse,” Cahill said.)

— FRONT PAGE TOP OF FOLD WITH PHOTOS OF TRACY AND DEL MAR: Republican Aaron Del Mar, former lieutenant governor candidate, hopes to lead the state party. – Marni Pyke
https://www.dailyherald.com/20240620/illinois-state-politics/state-gop-chair-walking-away-blames-republican-backstabbing-friction/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Illinois Republican Party Chairman Don Tracy’s Wednesday resignation bombshell, blaming infighting in the ranks, leaves a leadership gap that could be filled by a suburban contender. Palatine Republican and former lieutenant governor candidate Aaron Del Mar announced Thursday he will seek the chairman’s job. “Moving forward, if my peers believe in me and give me the opportunity to lead this party, the Democrats better be ready. I’m no milquetoast,” said Del Mar, a State Central Committee member. . .Other names that have surfaced as chair are state Sen. Jason Plummer of Edwardsville, who could not be reached for comment, and former Republican gubernatorial candidate Jeanne Ives of Wheaton. Ives said Thursday she would not seek the position and disagreed with contentions the party was in disarray. “At the state central party level, we’re all in agreement about what we need to do to beat the Democrats,” said Ives, a former state representative and a State Central Committee member. “We’re here to be the opposition party to their policy prescriptions that have destroyed … the working-class opportunities in this state.” . . . Tracy appointed State Central Committee member Jan Weber to lead the search for a replacement. That person “needs to be a unifier of all Republicans for the good of the party otherwise we will stay in a super minority position for a long time to come,” Republican state Rep. Bradley Stephens of Rosemont said.)

CHICAGO SUN-TIMES
— Anticipate/expect that hate-filled conservative-hating conservative-haters will ever-increasingly use Tracy and use his resignation to promote more and more and more hatred against conservatives. Since at least the 1970s, the Illinois Republican Party has ever-increasingly moved more and more and more to the left, that is, it has rejected more and more and more planks in the Republican Party platform.
https://chicago.suntimes.com/politics/2024/06/20/illinois-republican-party-chairman-don-tracy-resigns
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Vanquished 2022 GOP gubernatorial candidate Darren Bailey — a former state senator and zealous Trump supporter who appealed directly to the grassroots movement — celebrated Tracy’s departure in a social media post, saying that the “cleansing of the Republican Party continues.” “The problem that Don, Mark, and many others simply don’t comprehend and refuse to understand is that they simply are failing to uphold the party platform. They believe that supporting liberal candidates who will work closely with Democrats is the answer. It’s not!” Bailey said. “Fake Republicans got us into this mess. Real Republicans standing firm will get us out!”)

https://www.chicagotribune.com/2024/06/20/will-county-board-members-question-vote-on-pride-month-resolution/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: “I would like to know where’s the representation for the traditional family,” said Julie Berkowicz, a Republican from Naperville, who was one of two Republicans questioning why the board was voting on the Pride proclamation. “We should support the freedoms of every individual no matter who they say they are,” Berkowicz said. “This type of resolution does not belong here. It has nothing to do with county government. … I’m not saying I’m against it, but I’m saying we need to focus on doing our business.” Berkowicz was one of 16 board members who voted in support of the Pride Month proclamation. Dan Butler, a Republican from Frankfort, cast the board’s sole no vote against the proclamation, saying he doesn’t feel the county board meeting is the forum for it. “I think we got way too many proclamations,” Butler said. “Whatever people want to do, live their lives the way they want to live it, I’m fine with that. I don’t agree that the government should be making proclamations about people’s sexuality. It just doesn’t seem like the place.”)

https://www.dailyherald.com/20240609/letters-to-the-editor/voters-must-put-end-to-politicized-justice/
(FROM THE LETTER: The recent conviction of President Trump is a travesty and a stain on our justice system. This verdict raises serious questions, especially given the unclear nature of the charges and the statute of limitations. Many legal experts highlight the politically motivated nature of this prosecution. This attack on President Trump is an attack on every American who believes in fairness and justice. If they can do this to a former president and the 2024 Republican nominee, they can do it to anyone. This is a sad day for our justice system — reminiscent of what you’d expect in Russia, China or North Korea, but not America. A politicized justice system serves no one. Activist prosecutors are using the judiciary for political gain, but the American people see through this. Voters in Illinois and across the country will demand change on Election Day. The weaponization of the judicial system should concern every American and this backlash will lead to a significant red wave in November. President Trump will return stronger than ever. We must fight to restore justice and integrity in our nation.)

— West side organization Broader Urban Involvement and Leadership Development, known as BUILD, fights youth joblessness. – Kay Cesinger (COMMENT: What motivated you to take jobs, including bad jobs, when you were in high school and college? For me, it was having enough money to pay form my college expenses and having new cars to commute from my parents’ home in Crete to classes at UIC and then transferring to NIU. That motivated me to a) wash dishes for the minimum wage in the basement of the S.S. Kresge in Chicago heights 1964-1966, b) clean golf shoes in Flossmoor and chip slag and pump gasoline in South Chicago Heights in 1966, c) deliver mail in Park Forest 1966-1969, and d) work on an automobile assembly line in Belvidere in 1970. Those jobs enabled me to buy a new 1966 Pontiac Tempest Sprint in 1966, a new 1968 Oldsmobile 442 in 1967, and a new 1969 Dodge Charger SE in 1968 and to graduate debt-free from NIU in 1970 owning that Charger.)

— Black Hawk descendent demands Chicago Blackhawks change logo, name (COMMENT: Politics is nasty/vicious. How long have your ancestors been in America? The longer that your ancestors have been in America and if you are Republican and conservative, White, male, older, non-veteran, married, non-poor, Protestant, and/or German American, the more that Democrats and RINOs blame you for the problems that Native Americans have. If any of your ancestors homesteaded a farm, you are in big trouble. My critics/opponents have always stressed that my ancestors on my father’s side homesteaded a 240-arce farm in Crete Township in 1854. They trace how that resulted in my parents inheriting 1286 Wood Street in Crete in the 1960s, my brother and I inheriting that home in 2016, and my inheriting that home and selling it in 2022.)

— When students graduate debt-free – Lilia Luciano (COMMENT: Did you graduate debt-free? I graduated debt-free from NIU in 1970 owning a 1969 Dodge Charger SE. I had to work my way through college. My outstanding parents provided me with room and board in their Crete home 1966-1968 while I completed courses at UIC, weekends during my first semester at NIU in 1969, and the summer of 1969. I worked all the part-time hours that I could for the Park Forest Post Office 1966-1969 and my GPA suffered because of that. My critics/opponents have always stressed that I never got any scholarships, that I only just barely made it into the upper 20% of my 1966 Crete-Monee High School (CMHS) class, and that my ACT score was only 24. During my junior and senior years at CMHS and the summer in between 1964-1966, instead of studying, I washed dishes for the minimum wage in the basement of the S.S. Kresge in Chicago Heights.)

— Getting organized for your retirement future – Ben Anderson (COMMENT: In 1997, when I was 49 years old, because my Democrat GAO superiors suddenly forced me to take their expiring early retirement “offer,” I had only days to get organized for my retirement future. I had fully expected that they were going to let me work until I was 55 years old in 2003 and eligible for regular retirement. Because my Democrat superiors in federal government had wasted my career and forced me to retire early, my COLA-adjusted Civil Service Retirement System pension is currently only $65,165/year. By their forcing me to retire early, my Democrat GAO superiors rudely flushed down their toilets a) my almost 18 years of experience working for GAO, the last 11 years of which at the GS-13 Step 1-10 levels, currently $115,439-$150,075/year, b) my six job-related professional certifications (Forensic Accountant-1997, Financial Services Auditor-1996, Government Financial Manager-1994, Fraud Examiner-1990, Internal Auditor-1981, and CPA-1979), c) my job-related professional license (CPA-1981), and d) my three job-related master’s degrees (Financial Markets and Trading-IIT-1997, Accounting-DePaul-1980, and Business-Loyola-1976. They would not have done the aforesaid if I had not become an active member in a class action lawsuit that charged them with reverse discrimination, age discrimination, and retaliation in 1988. They would not have done the aforesaid if Newt Gingrich had not dramatically cut GAO’s budget.)

— PRESS RELEASE: Rep. LaHood Expose Slave Labor by Gotion CHICAGO — In case you missed it, Illinois Congressman Darin LaHood (IL-16) exposed Chinese battery manufacturer Gotion for using slave labor while being connected to the Chinese Communist Party. While receiving billions of dollars in taxpayer funds, companies like Gotion are committing horrific crimes with America’s enemies. Lahood, a member of the House Select Committee on the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) and the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence called on the United States to ensure that companies follow the Uyghur Forced Labor Prevention Act that prevents products made from Uyghur slave labor from entering the United States. Gotion has ignored that rule by taking taxpayer dollars and working with the CCP.

— Because Democrats ever-increasingly pull out all the stops to defeat Trump, Republicans need to start pulling out all the stops to defeat Biden, that is, Republicans need to start fighting fire with fire. Republicans need to shout what the Democrat strategy is to elect Biden. To get votes from those who do not share Trump’s demographics, Democrats ever-increasingly hint/imply/argue/shout at them that if elected, Biden will give them preference and will get rid of those who share Trump’s demographics. Those who do not share Trump’s demographics are LGBTQ, liberal/moderate, Democrat/Libertarian/Green/Independent/RINO, in America illegally, minority, female, younger, non-rich, unmarried, veteran, non-Protestant, non-German American, and/or have ancestors who have not been in America for a long time. Trump is heterosexual, conservative, Republican, American, White, male, older, non-poor, married, non-veteran, Protestant, German American, and his ancestors who have been in America for a long time. – Dave Diersen

My career advice includes that if you want to work for an employer, find one that accepts your demographics, that believes in your values, and that promotes its employees based on merit. If I had gotten that advice and accepted that advice when I was young, I never would have gone to work for the Democrats who run the federal government. Those Democrats rejected my demographics, they rejected my conservativism, and they promoted their employees because they were Democrats who were minority, female, younger, veteran, non-Protestant, non-German American, and/or had ancestors who had not been in America for a long time. They wasted my job-related bachelor’s degree, three master’s degrees, six professional certifications, and professional license.

My great great grandfather, my great grandfather, my grandfather, and my father were all members of the church and attended its school. But in 1961, when my father was one of its leaders, its pastor, rather than accepting a calling from a Wisconsin Synod Church, succeeded in a) switching the church and school to the Wisconsin Synod and b) driving out the church its members who wanted to stay with the Missouri Synod. Because of that, in 1961, when I was in 8th grade, to stay with the Missouri Synod, my father transferred our family to Hope Lutheran Church in Park Forest. To accommodate that, Hope Lutheran created a new 8th grade for me and 7 others. The aforesaid had a tremendous impact on me.)

— QUESTION: What encourages people to vote for Republicans? ANSWER: The poverty, crime, and even worse things that the following planks in the Democrat Party platform bring forth: a) welfare, that is, dependency on government and charity, b) LGBTQ, that is, the destruction of traditional marriage and family, c) abortion, that is, disrespect for human life, d) mass/illegal immigration, that is, the destruction of America, e) booze, gambling, pot, and other vices, that is, the destruction of America, f) gun control, that is, the abolition of the Second Amendment, and g) Affirmative Action and DEI, that is, patronage, political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, age discrimination, religious discrimination, national origin discrimination, and the end of meritocracy.

— Democrats run the federal government and use Affirmative Action and DEI to get rid of Republicans. What career limiting things did you do? I avoided the draft. I became a federal employee and stayed one. I did not become a Democrat. I complained about political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, age discrimination, religious discrimination, and national origin discrimination. I became an active member in a class action lawsuit in 1988 when I was 40 that charged my Democrat superiors with reverse discrimination, age discrimination, and retaliation. Because of the aforesaid, my Democrat superiors in the federal government took many big adverse actions against me and forced me to take their early retirement “offer” in 1997. Because of the aforesaid, I filed a lawsuit against my Democrat superiors for political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, age discrimination, religious discrimination, and national origin discrimination in 1998. – Dave Diersen

SEE: https://www.gao.gov/products/b-180010.11 and https://www.gao.gov/products/b-180010.11-0 But by then, my IRS career was ruined even though I had earned an MBA from Loyola in 1976.

ECONOMIST
— Changes to China’s gaokao exam are about politics, not fairness. Extra points for minority students are going away. (COMMENT: Since 1966, my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes have decried my passing tests including the tests I passed a) to get hired by the Post Office in 1966, IRS in 1971, and GAO in 1980, b) to earn a bachelor’s degree in management from NIU in 1970, an MBA from Loyola in 1976, a master’s degree in accounting from DePaul in 1980, and a master’s degree in financial markets and trading from IIT in 1997, c) to become a CPA in 1979 and a Certified Internal Auditor in 1981, and d) to become a licensed CPA in 1981. They have hinted/implied/argued/shouted that I passed the aforesaid tests because I unfairly benefitted tremendously from tremendous discrimination against those who are minority, female, younger, LGBTQ, veteran, non-Protestant, non-German American, have ancestors who have not been in America for a long time, etc. In my defense, I stress that neither of my parents attended college, that my father was only the first of my ancestors to earn a high school diploma, and that my mother attended high school.)
https://www.economist.com/china/2024/06/06/changes-to-chinas-gaokao-exam-are-about-politics-not-fairness
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Starting on June 7th millions of young people will sit for the world’s largest academic test. China’s university-entrance exam, known as the gaokao, is punishingly difficult. Students spend endless hours cramming for it. But it is also meant to be meritocratic. Work hard, score well and, no matter what your social background, you can get into a good college. Yet the test is administered in ways that do not seem so meritocratic. Local governments are allowed to produce their own versions of the gaokao, with different questions and scoring methods. Students in elite cities, such as Beijing and Shanghai, enjoy an easier route into local universities, which include some of the country’s finest.)

They a) have always been angry about positive things that Ives has done for me including appointing me to the 2024 IRP State Convention Platform and Resolutions Committee and b) have always been overjoyed about adverse actions that Ives has taken against me including removing me from that committee. Recently, one of my biggest critics/opponents threw my precinct letter in her trash. In that letter, I had announced that Ives had appointed me to the aforesaid committee.)
https://www.illinoisreview.com/illinoisreview/2024/06/don-tracy-ally-jeanne-ives-attacks-grassroots-on-facebook-as-powerful-voter-base-abandons-angry-radio-host.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: On Monday, Illinois Republican State Central Committee member Jeanne Ives – a close ally to embattled IL GOP chairman Don Tracy – went on Facebook to publicly slam her own constituents – the conservative grassroots base of the party – for emailing and asking about an incident that took place during the state convention – angrily posting, “canned emails get a canned response.” Earlier on Monday, the powerful and influential base of the Republican Party – the grassroots – sent emails to IL GOP leaders including Ives, asking why SSC member Mark Shaw – who was running for national committeeman – was spotted wearing a “delegate” badge during the state convention when he was not an actual delegate. As a delegate, Shaw could vote for himself for national committeeman – a vote that wouldn’t help, as he would lose the election in a landslide to the grassroots-backed candidate Dean White. But growing agitated by the influx of emails concerning Shaw, Ives decided to go on her Facebook page and post a comment that read, “You send a canned email, you get a canned response…at least I replied to your canned email.” The comment drew an immediate backlash as Republicans fired back calling Ives’ comment “ignorant” and “belittling” to the constituents she’s supposed to represent.)

— Here’s what to expect from Friday’s big jobs report – Jeff Cox (COMMENT: According to Democrat and RINO leaders, illegals are happy to take bad jobs that American citizens refuse to take. What bad jobs did you take? I did yard work 1962-1964, delivered newspapers 1962-1966, washed dishes 1964-1966, cleaned golf shoes, chipped slag, and pumped gasoline in 1966, delivered mail 1966-1969, worked on an automobile 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. I grant that my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes would never stoop to take any of the aforesaid bad jobs that I took. But the answer is not to import illegals to take bad jobs. From what I see, many, most, if not virtually all illegals a) would not stoop to take the bad jobs that I took and/or are not qualified to take the bad jobs that I took.)

— ‘All soldiers remember their old battlefield.’ – Retired Major General John L. Borling Reflects on the 80th D-Day Anniversary on the Steve Cochran Show (COMMENT: Borling ran against the following in the 2004 Illinois Republican U.S. Senate primary: Jack Ryan, Jim Oberweis, Steve Rauschenberger, Andrew McKenna, Chirinjeev Kathuria, Jonathan C. Wright, and Norm Hill. I remember the primary like it was yesterday. I conducted a major straw poll at the 2003 Milton Township Republican Organization (MTRO) fundraiser in which more than 400 voted. Ryan won that straw poll. At the time, I was the MTRO webmaster and an officer of TAPROOT Republicans of Illinois and Illinois Center Right Coalition. Ryan won the primary, but then withdrew. The Illinois Republican Party State Central Committee replaced Ryan with Alan Keyes. Keyes lost to Obama. Obama then on when on to become President. Of course, my critics/opponents continue blame me and blame my GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters for the all of the aforesaid. They hint/imply/argue/shout that I rigged the MTRO straw poll for Ryan to win. In addition, they continue to blame me and blame my newsletters for Jim Ryan losing to Blagojevich in 2002. They stress that I supported Pat O’Malley in that primary. Constructively, increasingly, my critics/opponents blame me and blame my newsletters for all the losses that Republican candidates on ballots in my precinct have suffered since 2000. Should I start writing about my critics/opponents?)

— Texas Democrats begin state convention in familiar position: out of power but hopeful – Gromer Jeffers Jr. (COMMENT: What do you say to my critics/opponents who state that they are religious, conservative, and/or Republican, but who steer everyone away from the individual responsibility, traditional marriage and 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?)
https://www.dallasnews.com/news/politics/2024/06/07/texas-democrats-begin-state-convention-in-familiar-position-out-of-power-but-hopeful/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Texas Democrats haven’t won a statewide election since 1994, putting them on the sidelines while Republicans have passed laws and implemented policies reflecting an increasingly conservative agenda. . .Lisa Turner, state director of the Democratic research group Lone Star Project, said Democrats should contrast themselves with Republicans, who last month approved a party platform that classifies abortion as homicide, seeks to ban transgender teachers in public schools and supports refusing birth certificates for children born to undocumented parents. “That is just otherworldly. It’s beyond MAGA crazy,” Turner said. “It’s really important that the party highlight our differences with Republicans, and they’ve never been clearer as to what it means for Texans. Our tagline as Democrats should be: ‘Join us. We’re the normal people party.’” Texas Republican Party Chairman Abraham George said his party better reflects the values of Texas voters, while state Democrats are weighed down by the policies of President Joe Biden. “From Joe Biden to the horrible economy and the open borders, the Texas Democrat Party is showing the signs that it isn’t with the people of Texas,” he said. The GOP platform, George said, was tough on issues like abortion but captured the mood of most Texas voters. “Those are values that average Texans will align with, regardless of their policies and politics,” he said. Democrats disagree, and they see an opening to reach voters. “Republicans have basically vacated the field on common-sense policies,” said state Rep. Rafael Anchia, D-Dallas. “If Democrats would pledge to run the state like a Fortune 500 company, we would be making so much more progress than Republicans are today.” . . . Democrats say they need to craft better a message to voters. In doing so, they want to steer away from culture war talking points and focus on bread and butter issues, including education, transportation, water, health care and the economy.

ILLINOIS REPUBLICAN PARTY
— 6/5/24 PRESS RELEASE: This Isn’t the First Time Democrats Raised Taxes CHICAGO — Today, JB Pritzker signed legislation that pushed a BILLION dollars in new taxes onto Prairie State residents. Without billions in federal assistance, Governor Pritzker signed the largest tax-and-spend bill in Illinois HISTORY and is making you and your families pay for it. Unfortunately, this isn’t the first time. . .”Illinois Democrats’ bloated budget, which is filled with hundreds-of-millions of dollars of new tax increases for pet projects, illegal immigrants and his socialist agenda, is bad for Illinois,” said Illinois Republican Party Chairman Don Tracy. “Illinois families are dealing with Bidenflation, higher prices and more financial problems than ever before and Democrats’ solution is to take even more of their money. Pritzker needs to stop treating taxpayers as his personal piggy bank as he dreams of running for President and of being the far-left’s tax-and-spend darling.”

— FRONT PAGE TOP OF FOLD: Judge rules unconstitutional Gov. J.B. Pritzker-backed election law that aided Democrats in November. – RICK PEARSON (COMMENT: U.S. President was the only contested race on the Republican primary ballot in my precinct. One office on the ballot would have been “no candidate” if it had not been filled by a write-in candidate. As Democrat leaders ever-increasingly flood Illinois with voters who have demographics that vote for Democrats, anticipate/expect that because the likelihood of winning is less, fewer candidates will run for offices as Republicans and those who do run will be less qualified for the offices that they seek. Further, anticipate/expect that Republican leaders will ever-increasingly encourage only those who are the following to run: non-conservative, minority, female, younger, veteran, non-Protestant, non-German America, and/or those whose ancestors have not been in America for a long time. Therefore, anticipate/expect that Republican organizations will ever-increasingly run candidates.)

Democrat candidates and elected officials ever-increasingly promise to give preference to voters who are non-conservative, minority, female, younger, LGBTQ, non-Protestant, non-German American, those whose ancestors have not been in America for a long time, citizens of foreign countries, boozers, gamblers, stoners, criminals, etc.

CBS 2’s Andrew Ramos reports they donned orange, part of a national movement starting in Chicago more than a decade ago to raise awareness of gun violence and how young people when given proper tools, could fight back. (COMMENT: When you were young, what opportunities were you given? Starting in grade school, I knew that I wanted to earn a college degree and that because my parents lacked money, I would have to work my way through college. I was given the following opportunities and I took them a) I did yard work 1962-1964, b) I delivered newspapers 1962-1966, c) I washed dishes 1964-1966, d) I cleaned golf shoes, chipped slag, and pumped gasoline in 1966, e) I delivered mail 1966-1969, and f) I worked on an automobile assembly line in 1970. Because I took the aforesaid opportunities, I was able to and I did a) buy a 1958 Chevrolet Bel Air in 1964, b) buy a new 1966 Pontiac Tempest Sprint in 1966, c) pay for my UIC expenses 1966-1968, d) buy a new 1968 Oldsmobile 442 in 1967, e) buy a new 1969 Dodge Charger SE in 1968, f) pay for my NIU expenses 1969-1970, and g) graduate debt-free from NIU in 1970 with a bachelor’s degree in management and owning that Charger.)

As Democrat leaders ever-increasingly flood Illinois with voters who have demographics that vote for Democrats, anticipate/expect that because the likelihood of winning is less, fewer will run for offices as Republicans and those who do run will be less qualified for the offices that they seek. Further, anticipate/expect that Republican leaders will ever-increasingly encourage only those who are the following to run: non-conservative, minority, female, younger, veteran, non-Protestant, non-German America, and/or those whose ancestors have not been in America for a long time.)

https://abc7chicago.com/post/mayor-brandon-johnson-local-leaders-raise-progress-pride/14906569/
— Democrats ever-increasingly use Juneteenth to promote more hatred against Republicans. My Democrat superiors in the federal government had great success in promoting hatred against Republicans. I became eligible to take early retirement in 1993 when I was 45 years old. I was able to survive another 4 years before my Democrat GAO superiors succeeded in forcing me to take their early retirement “offer” and gave by Black subordinate my job and my preferred corner office. If there had been as much Democrat-generated hatred within GAO against Republicans back then as there is now, they would have succeeded in forcing me to retire much sooner. They forced me to retire when I was 49 years old in 1997 even though I had earned my third job-related master’s degree and my sixth job-related professional certification that year. Previously, I had earned job related professional certifications in 1996,1994,1990, 1981, and 1979 and I had earned a job-related professional license in 1981.

As Democrats ever-increasingly run Illinois, anticipate/expect fewer and fewer and fewer candidates will run as Republicans.

https://news.wttw.com/2024/06/03/after-would-be-illinois-gop-candidates-sue-judge-considering-whether-slated-candidates
(FROM THE ARTICLE: A Sangamon County judge is weighing whether to block a new state law that bans the long-practiced tradition of political parties slating candidates for a general election after sitting out of a primary race. Democrats who control the General Assembly pushed the measure through the legislative process and Gov. J.B. Pritzker signed it into law in a matter of days last month, arguing that slating is unfair to voters who didn’t get a say in a primary contest. Several would-be Republican candidates then sued over the law, claiming it’s unfair to ban the practice in the middle of an election cycle.)

https://www.politico.com/newsletters/illinois-playbook/2024/06/03/speaker-johnsons-illinois-swing-00161230
(FROM THE ARTICLE: PEORIA, Illinois: U.S. House Speaker Mike Johnson headlined the annual Peoria-Tazewell Lincoln Day Dinner, where he railed on the guilty verdicts against Donald Trump and pumped up the IL-17 congressional race. It was a scene: More than 400 Republican attendees gathered to hear Johnson speak at the Four Points by Sheraton Peoria. Reporters weren’t allowed into the ballroom, but Johnson did speak to us before the event. On Trump: Johnson said, “He is not just our nominee, not just an individual running for president. I think now he’s seen as a symbol, a symbol of one who is willing to fight back against that corruption, the deep state and all the rest.” Here’s POLITICO’s full report with quotes from Illinois Republicans Joe Walsh, Jeanne Ives, Rhonda Belford and Jim Rule. During the presser: Johnson stood with Congressman Darin LaHood (IL-16) and Joe McGraw, a retired judge who’s challenging incumbent Democratic Congressman Eric Sorensen in the IL-17 District in November.)

ILLINOIS REPUBLICAN PARTY
— PRESS RELEASE: Democrat Fear Mongering Reaches Absurdity. CHICAGO — Last week, Illinois Congressman Eric Sorensen, declared that our economy would shut down in THREE days if we secure our border. “The economy of the United States would end in 3 days. We have 3 days of what we need in the United States, so if we just shut down the entire southern border, it would be to the detriment of our country.” – Eric Sorensen Bottom Line: Our southern border is a national security threat as we’ve seen record crossings of migrants after Biden’s reversal of the Trump Administration border policies. We can’t afford naive, fear-mongering Democrats like Sorensen that vote against legislation to secure our border and destroy the Republican agenda to secure our border.

We’ll see it in our theaters. We’ll see it on T-shirts, umbrellas, bumper stickers, and even at our churches. Pride, pride, pride! This is the singular message that silences all others.

https://www.theguardian.com/science/brain-flapping/2013/aug/06/anger-aggression-psychology-screw-you
(FROM THE ARTICLE: However, it’s often difficult to do anything about these frustrations, so it’s likely to result in displaced aggression. This is where you can’t respond to the thing that’s frustrating you due to it being unavailable or, more frustratingly, something or someone who has the greater ability to harm you if you react. The arousal of anger doesn’t dissipate quickly, so it’s often transferred to less deserving but more convenient targets.)

GOPUSA ILLINOIS
— Political parties exist to help elect candidates who can and will defend and advance their platform. The Republican Party platform is conservative. Illinois Republicans anxiously await the Illinois Republican Party (IRP) a) to issue a detailed press release on its State Convention and b) to post on its website its new platform and its 12 new resolutions. Those who dominate the IRP oppose direct election of IRP State Central Committee (SCC) members, oppose Dean White, and oppose conservative principles. Anticipate/expect that those who dominate the IRP will not only ignore/dismiss/belittle the party’s new platform and resolutions, they will get rid of IRP SCC members, county party leaders, township/ward party leaders, precinct committeemen/captains, voters, and everyone else a) who want direct election of IRP SCC members, who support Dean White, and/or who promote conservative principles. Conservatives overwhelmingly want direct election of IRP SCC members. Who were the IRP State Convention Platform and Resolutions Committee members who stated that they are conservative but voted against direct election? I have promoted direct election of IRP SCC members and conservative principles, that is, the Republican Party platform, big time since 2000. Since 2000, party leaders who oppose direct election of IRP SCC members and/or oppose conservative principles have taken many big adverse actions against me because of that. I should write a book about that. – Dave Diersen

JOHN ZAHM
— Getting your own house in order. Some people came to Collinsville to the Illinois Republican Party Convention to limit grassroots Republicans voice and influence in the party. Others came to take selfies and pump up the appearance of their influence. Others cut deals to acquire positions and titles to benefit themselves. Daniel R. Zahm and I attended the Convention laser-focused on supporting policies and people who would represent grassroots conservative values and real reform for the Republican Party. After witnessing Committee Reports that had predetermined outcomes, and little substantive debate and discussion, we doubled down on our efforts promoting a great grassroots conservative leader Dean R. White – Illinois Republican State Central Committee. Insider party bosses like Laura Pollastrini and Larry Smith fought tooth and nail to defeat Dean. They supported and used rules and technicalities to make the process of overturning the National Committeeman-National Committeewoman vote of 10 people for Mark Shaw carry the weight over 494 Delegates nearly impossible. We would not stand for it and took the route of defeating the Committee report on the floor since they would not allow us to have a new vote on the floor between Shaw and White. In the end we succeeded. It was a team effort bringing together a group of just over 300 delegates who would not waver in the face of threats, demands, and insults. One HUGE victory. But many more to go. Many more stories to share. Patriots to thank. Bad actors to call out. But let’s start with this one right here. (Photo with Dean right after the victory).

— Rank-And-File outsmart Pompous Pooh-Bahs at IL GOP state convention (COMMENT: Far too many “Republican” party leaders and precinct committeemen are acting like they would rather see Biden elected than Trump. How many of them boycotted the Illinois Republican Party State Convention in Collinsville?)
https://dougelstonibendahl.substack.com/p/rank-and-file-outsmart-pompous-pooh
(FROM THE ARTICLE: This state convention was the most shamefully rigged and disrespectful to the Republican rank-and-file I’ve seen yet in the nearly 30 years I’ve been paying attention to this stuff. And I have always been the first to acknowledge there were certainly problems when I was the state party’s lawyer 25 years ago. But I learn from experience and when I see things are infinitely worse today, I work for meaningful positive change. I don’t double-down on a failed system which the average 5-year old can see has been a catastrophic disaster for the Illinois GOP. Unfortunately, that is not yet an attitude universally shared. And we’re now to the point where dishonesty, self-dealing and unprofessionalism are officially off the charts. And it all centers around a desperate desire by the pooh-bahs to keep the rank-and-file disenfranchised and voiceless in their own state party. The lengths some on the state central committee (SCC) and their bootlicks have been willing to go to keep Republicans from having a vote again has a lot of people scratching their heads. . .Meanwhile, my strong hunch is that the party pooh-bahs are taking no positive lessons from the clock-cleaning regular Republicans delivered on Saturday. If anything, the pooh-bahs are kicking themselves for leaving even a crack in the door which allowed the Republican rank-and-file to have ANY voice at this convention. They aren’t planning to loosen the rules, they’re surely planning to make them even MORE restrictive next time. Not sure that would even be possible, but if there is a way to further squelch the voice of their constituents, I’m sure they’ll find it. It’s about all they do. Anyone who still doesn’t understand why our vote must be restored for our state party’s central committee, the governing board, really needs to do us all a favor and find a new hobby. I mean come on, seriously, no one can truly be that oblivious.)
ILLINOIS REVIEW
— Grassroots Dominate IL GOP State Convention and Expand Influence as State Party Leaders Lose Their Cool (COMMENT: Far too many “Republican” party leaders and precinct committeemen are acting like they would rather see Biden elected than Trump. How many of them boycotted the Illinois Republican Party State Convention in Collinsville?)
https://www.illinoisreview.com/illinoisreview/2024/05/grassroots-dominate-il-gop-state-convention-and-expand-influence-as-state-party-leaders-lose-their-cool.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: On Saturday, the influential conservative grassroots base of the Illinois Republican Party scored major victories during the GOP State Convention in Collinsville – as delegates from across the state elected Dean White as the new Republican national committeeman and Donald Trump-endorsed U.S. Rep. Mary Miller, (IL-15) as the Illinois Delegation Chair to nominate President Trump at the RNC Convention in Milwaukee. The state convention did not lack drama, as state party officials tried their best to maintain power and protect their own establishment-supported candidates. . .But the drama was not over as late Friday night, embattled IL GOP chairman Don Tracy withdrew himself from the running to be the Illinois Delegation Chair to nominate President Donald Trump at the RNC Convention in Milwaukee, after realizing that the room full of delegates was not on his side. Tracy then supported Miller, who is grassroots and a crowd favorite who was endorsed by President Trump in her re-election to Congress, in her bid to become the delegation chair. Rhonda Belford was also elected as the new RNC National Committeewoman. Many IL GOP officials continue to blame this publication for publishing articles critical of the establishment-base of the party – and that anger towards Illinois Review was on full display during the convention.)

https://abc7chicago.com/post/cps-school-budget-breakdown-released-chicago-public-schools-parents-transparency-funding-formula/14883754/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: On Tuesday, CPS released a school-by-school budget breakdown under a brand new funding formula based on equity rather than enrollment. “It’s schools that have high needs high poverty, high special ed, high English language learners. Those schools are going to get more recourses. They’re going to be smaller class sizes,” Martinez said. But Martinez admits a small number of schools will face cuts because of tighter budgets. At schools where enrollment is high and demographics are wealthier, class sizes may become a bit bigger.)

— CPS budgets target help for schools with high needs. – Nader Issa (COMMENT: I am not sure what the tuition was when my parents sent me and my brother to Trinity Lutheran Grade School in Crete and then Hope Lutheran Grade School in Park Forest in the 1950s and 1960s, but I believe it was 10% of their income. In today’s dollars, my father never made more than $50,000/year. He almost always worked second jobs to pay the family’s bills. My mother did not work outside the home until he died suddenly in 1969. Consequently, I had to work my way through college.)

— QUESTION: What do Democrat employers do to hire, retain, and promote Democrats who are minority and/or female? ANSWER: They lower hiring, retention, and promotion requirements. While I worked for the Democrats who ran the federal government for almost 30 years, they ever-increasingly lowered hiring, retention, and promotion requirements. That ever-increasingly rendered worthless my job-related a) bachelor’s degree (1970), b) three master’s degrees (1976, 1980, and 1997), c) six professional certifications (1979, 1981, 1990, 1994, 1996, and 1997), and d) professional license (1981). I should write a book about the aforesaid. – Dave Diersen

When I transferred from IRS to GAO in 1980 when I was 31 years old, to get rid of me, my Democrat GAO superiors, supervisors, coworkers, and subordinates rudely treated me as though I was a GS-4 (currently $39,488/year) entry level employee. They ignored/dismissed/belittled the fact that I had a) worked for IRS for almost 9 years, the last 5 1/2 years of which at the GS-12 Step 1-5 Levels (currently $97,079-$110,020/year), b) passed the CPA examination on my first attempt in 1979, c) earned an MBA from Loyola in 1976, and d) almost completed the requirements for a master’s degree in accounting from DePaul. They forced me to take a $22,996/year (21%) pay cut in today’s dollars to transfer. They would not have done that if I had been a Democrat, minority, female, and/or veteran.)

They hint/imply/argue/shout that I am “too conservative” and even worse things and that because of that, the more that do to help elect them, the more votes that they will lose. Further, they stress my bad demographics: conservative, Republican, White, male, older, non-veteran, Protestant, German American, and my ancestors have been in America since 1844. I should write a book about the aforesaid.)
