FOX32
— Rally in downtown Chicago calls for easier work permit process – Nate Rodgers (COMMENT: To give illegals work permits is to promote more illegal immigration. According to Democrat and RINO leaders, illegals are more than happy to take jobs that citizens of America fail/refuse to take, that is, bad jobs. Have you had to take bad jobs? My critics/opponents have never had to take bad jobs, but I had to. To have money to buy cars and to pay for college expenses, I a) did yard work 1962-1964, b) delivered newspapers 1962-1966, c) washed dishes 1964-1966, d) cleaned golf shoes, chipped slag, and pumped gasoline in 1966, and e) delivered mail 1966-1969. If there had been as many illegals back then as there are now, they would have gotten the jobs that I got. If I still would have gotten those jobs, my salaries would have been lower because illegals drive salaries down for bad jobs.)

— Is it an electric car or a Bidenmobile? Greening of transportation gets political. – Clarence Page (COMMENT: Overwhelmingly, my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes are anti-cars and especially anti-American nameplate cars and even more especially anti-muscle cars. I have owned gasoline-powered American nameplate cars since I was 16 in 1964 and muscle cars since I was 17 in 1966.

BIZ PAC REVIEW
— Gingrich claims Matt Gaetz ‘unleashed the demons’ following MTG motion to oust Speaker Johnson – Kevin Haggerty (COMMENT: I should write a book about how Gingrich made me collateral damage by destroyed GAO in the 1990s rather than reforming it. He could have sought my help to reform GAO but he did not. In 1997, I was one of the few remaining Republican GAO employees. I had worked for GAO as an Analyst for almost 18 years, the last 11 years of which at the GS-13 Step 1-10 Levels, currently $115,439-$150,075/year. I had been an active member in a class action lawsuit that charged GAO with reverse discrimination, age discrimination, and retaliation since I turned 40 in 1988. In 1989, I fully briefed Henry Hyde about the tremendous political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, and age discrimination in GAO.)

— FRONT PAGE WITH PICTURE: Why Illinois voters were no-shows at the polls Tuesday – Jake Griffin
https://www.dailyherald.com/20240322/news/why-illinois-voters-were-no-shows-at-the-polls-tuesday/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: “Most of the races were completely uncontested, with just one contested county board race on the Democratic side,” said Lake County Clerk Anthony Vega. “That lack of motivation could have resulted in voters not coming out.” With that lack of choice, combined with the fact that Democratic President Joe Biden and former Republican President Donald Trump had all but secured their nominations ahead of Tuesday’s vote, low turnout was inevitable, experts said. “But I was still shocked to see returns as low as they were,” said Ryan Tolley, executive director of Change Illinois, a nonpartisan, nonprofit group that advocates for ethical government and elections. “Typically voter turnout is higher in presidential elections and that doesn’t seem to be the case this year in Illinois, which that could be the divisiveness of politics or voters not having any faith in the process.” . . . Low turnout for a spring primary doesn’t necessarily translate to low turnout for the November election though. . . And when it comes to presidential election years, more than 70% of Illinois voters have cast ballots in each of the last five presidential votes, according to election records.)

ILLINOIS REVIEW
— IL GOP Abandons Grassroots, Pays Establishment Political Consulting Firms $954K During Embarrassing 2022 Election Cycle, Disclosures Reveal (COMMENT: I have been a member of the American Association of Political Consultants ( https://theaapc.org/ ) since 2001. My critics/opponents rudely ended my service as a member of the AAPC Midwest Chapter board of directors in 2004, a position that I had since 2001. I had worked for GAO for almost 18 years 1980-1997 as an Analyst, the last 11 years of which at the GS-13 Step 1-10 Levels, currently $115,439-$150,075/year. What GAO Analysts do is very similar to what consultants do.)
https://www.illinoisreview.com/illinoisreview/2024/03/il-gop-abandons-grassroots-pays-establishment-political-consulting-firms-954k-during-embarrassing-2022-election-cycle-disclosures-reveal.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The Illinois Republican Party routinely claims that they do not have enough money to support individual candidates – especially the conservative grassroots candidates, but disclosures reveal that during the 2022 election cycle, the state party spent over $954,000 on three political consulting firms as Democrats dominated the election and expanded their super majority control throughout the state. Disclosures also reveal that during that same period, the state party spent over $731,000 on salaries. Records show the IL GOP sent $437,500 to Axiom Strategies, $285,196 to COR Strategies and $231,347 to Validus. But the money spent did not advance Republican causes, but rather it advanced Republican losses – as the party spent nearly one million dollars to hire the state’s best and brightest political minds and consultants. And what was the result of their efforts? As the Chicago Tribune Editorial Board pointed out in a Nov. 11, 2022 editorial, “Republicans lost every state constitutional office – governor, attorney general, secretary of state, comptroller and treasurer – and 14 of 17 congressional seats. In the General Assembly, not only did the GOP fail to gain any ground on Democrats’ supermajority, Democrats notched a record number of seats in the Illinois House. And in the Illinois Supreme Court, where Republicans had an opportunity to gain two seats…they came up short. Democrats now have a comfortable 5-2 edge in the state’s high court.” Validus partner and co-founder Nick Klitzing is the former Executive Director of the IL GOP and he served as the Deputy Campaign Manager and Special Counsel for the Bruce Rauner re-election campaign in 2017. A review of Klitzing’s personal X account reveals anti-Trump posts. The Republican political consultant also bashes former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani, writing in 2020 that the mayor caused “extraordinary damage to our democracy by lying and pushing wild conspiracies on conservative media.” In other posts, Klitzing praises Never Trumper former U.S. Rep. Adam Kinzinger, writing, “So proud that @RepKinzinger represents Illinois!” Klitzing even endorses an anti-Trump, pro-choice Chicago Democrat in 2019, writing, “As a Republican in Chicago, I don’t always love my choices in city elections. But I enthusiastically voted for @AnnaValenciaIL for City Clerk. I’ve known Anna for 15+ years. She is a great leader and true public servant. She deserves your support. #VoteValencia #TeamValencia” In 2018, Valencia endorsed Democrat JB Pritzker for governor, writing, “I am proud to support JB for governor and to fight alongside him for the future of Illinois.” And in response, Pritzker noted, “I’m honored to receive the endorsement of Clerk Valencia. Anna is a strong voice for women’s rights and economic opportunity here in Chicago and across the state. As governor, I will work with leaders like Anna to protect a woman’s right to choose, support women and minority-owned small businesses, and work to close the gender pay gap. We will also fight the hateful attacks we’re seeing from the Trump and Rauner administrations.” And in 2022, Gov. JB Pritzker endorsed Valencia in her bid to become Illinois’ Secretary of State, stating that she “represents the bright future of the Democratic Party.” But Republican political consulting is a lucrative business in Illinois, regardless of one’s winning record. Last April, this publication revealed that the Richard Uihlein-funded People Who Play By The Rules PAC, in quarterly disclosures, paid three political consultants $142,000 while spending just $3,700 to support conservative school board candidates during the April elections. Sadly, the candidates lost, but the real winners were the consultants who paid themselves generously. The founder, president and treasurer of the PAC Dan Proft, a Florida resident and host of the Naples-based radio show Chicago’s Morning Answer, received the majority of the consulting fees, totaling $75,000 to Starfish Consulting LLC, while the rest went to a consulting firm owned by Orland Park Mayor Keith Pekau, who was paid $26,000 through Fahrenheit Consulting Group, while $41,000 went to a consulting firm owned by Michael Koolidge (TMKS, LLC), who also serves as the PAC’s communications director and chief spokesperson. During the 2022 Illinois gubernatorial campaign, Uihlein donated $42 million to Proft’s PAC. And just weeks before the election, the Illinois political consulting class, including the PAC, were out promoting a single poll that showed Republican nominee Darren Bailey within “striking” distance and only two points behind Pritzker during the final stretch of the campaign. But on election night, the governor’s race was called at the exact moment the polls closed, with the Associated Press declaring Gov. Pritzker the winner at 7:00 pm CDT. Pritzker would defeat Bailey by 12 points – a far cry from the 2-point margin that the Republican consultants were out promoting just days before. The Illinois Republican political consulting class is busy getting ready for the 2024 election, and promising major Republican victories in a state dominated by the Democrats. But if history is any indication, the real winners will not be the local candidates – but rather, the well-paid political consultants. The next election is November 5, 2024.)

— All my critics/opponents and their operatives and their dupes are extremely judgmental. Nothing that I have done has ever met their expectations/demands. They are especially critical of what I have done as the GOPUSA Illinois Editor since 2000 and as a Republican Precinct Committeeman since 1999. They were especially critical of what I did as a) the Republican fundraiser for Wheaton Independence Day parades and fireworks 2005-2019, b) the TAPROOT Republicans of Illinois chairman 2005-2012, c) a Wheaton Chamber of Commerce Government Affairs Committee member 2003-2011, d) the Milton Township Republican Organization webmaster 2008-2010 and 2000-2004, e) an Illinois Center Right Coalition Steering Committee member 2003-2007, and f) an American Association of Political Consultants Midwest Chapter board member 2001-2004. They continue to blame me for their problems, for your problems, for my problems, and for everyone’s problems. I should write a book about them. I would focus on those who have lots of religious, government, political, and/or financial clout in Wheaton, Milton Township, DuPage County, and Illinois. I would focus on those who have had their operatives and their dupes take the most/biggest adverse actions against me.

— Democrat Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson suggests Trump voters to blame for failure of city’s tax hike referendum. The ‘Bring Chicago Home’ real estate transfer tax referendum promised to bring in $100 million annually to combat the homeless crisis. – Joseph A.

I should write a book about the success that Democrat and RINO leaders have had demonizing, denigrating, and condemning the 90 Trump voters in my precinct, the 5,555 in Milton Township, and the 36,246 in DuPage County.)
(FROM THE ARTICLE: According to the Chicago Board of Election Commissioners’ website, there were roughly 37,000 total Republican primary voters who turned out for Tuesday’s primary. Roughly 29,000 of those cast their ballot for Trump, who earned 78.5% support.)

If there had been as many illegals back then as there are now, they would have gotten the jobs that I got. If I still would have gotten those jobs, my salaries would have been lower because illegals drive salaries down.)

https://news.wttw.com/2024/03/21/chicago-officials-slowly-evicting-migrants-city-shelters-johnson-resists-pressure-reverse
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Chicago officials evicted 15 migrants from city shelters through Wednesday, far fewer than expected less than a week ago, as Mayor Brandon Johnson resisted new calls to reverse course. Since city officials began enforcing the 60-day limit on shelter stays imposed by Johnson, eight people were evicted on Sunday and Monday, with another seven evicted on Wednesday, according to city data. It was unclear whether anyone would be evicted Thursday. The most recent evictions came on the same day that Ald. Andre Vasquez (40th Ward), the chair of the City Council’s Committee on Immigrant and Refugee Rights, renewed his call for the mayor to scrap the limit entirely and step up efforts to care for the men, women and children who made their way to Chicago from the southern border. “The city should not be in the business of handing out evictions,” Vasquez said Wednesday morning. “No one in need of shelter, whether they are newly arrived or whether they were born and raised here, should ever face the fear and instability of being evicted from a city shelter knowing they have nowhere else to go.”)

— The headlines should be “Trump crushes Haley.” With 97% of the precincts reporting, Trump got 469,586 votes statewide while Haley got only 83,525. With 100% of the precincts reporting, Trump got 35,944 votes in DuPage County while Haley got only 10,702 and Trump got 5,517 votes in Milton Township while Haley got only 2,330. What does that say to the leaders of the Illinois Republican Party (IRP), DuPage County Republican Central Committee, and Milton Township Republican Organization? What does that say to the IRP State Convention Platform and Resolution Committee? It says that Illinois Republican voters reject Haley’s anti-Trumpism and that they reject “Democrat Lite.” What does Trump want to see in the new RNC platform and in the new IRP platform? I am on the IRP State Convention Platform and Resolutions Committee. – Dave Drersen

— How many cast Republican primary ballots in your precinct? How many votes did Trump and Haley get in your precinct? 128 (35%) of the 370 registered Republican voters in my DuPage County Milton Township Precinct 59 in Wheaton cast Republican primary ballots. Trump got 86 votes while Haley got only32 votes. The rest of the races were uncontested. In those races, State’s Attorney Berlin was the high vote getter with 115. I got 109 votes. There is at least 1 registered Republican voter in 224 homes and 4 apartments in my precinct. – Dave Diersen

— Of course, for the November 5, 2024 general election, I want to help elect those candidates who won the Republican primary in my precinct. Those candidates are Donald Trump, John Booras, Amy Grant, Bob Berlin, Jaye Wang, Bob Grogan, Richard Jorgensen, Nicole Prater, Annette Corrigan, Jeff Caste, Kenton Skarin, Jason Helland, and John Costello. But according to my critics/opponents, I am far too conservative and my demographics are terrible, and because of that, the more that I do to help elect candidates in general elections, the fewer votes that those candidates will get. If you were me, how would you deal with that? My critics/opponents reject the personal 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. My critics/opponents had their operatives and their dupes end my service as the Republican fundraiser for Wheaton Independence Day parades and fireworks in 2021. – Dave Diersen

TEXAS TRIBUNE
— Texas GOP chair Matt Rinaldi won’t seek reelection. Rinaldi’s three-year tenure as chair of the GOP saw vicious infighting and historic gains for the state’s far right. – ROBERT DOWNEN (COMMENT: I should write a book about how the Illinois Republican Party has become more and more and more “Democrat Lite,” that is, more and more and more anti-conservative, that is, more and more and more anti-Republican.)
https://www.texastribune.org/2024/03/15/matt-rinaldi-texas-republican-chair-reelection/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Republican Party of Texas Chair Matt Rinaldi announced Friday that he will not seek reelection, ending a three-year tenure that was marked by an escalating GOP civil war, white supremacy scandal and historic 2024 primary gains for the party’s right wing. “After almost three years serving as Chairman, traveling the state and spending many long nights on the road, it is time for me to focus on my obligations as a husband to my wife, Corley, and as a father to my six-year-old son, Rush,” Rinaldi said in a Friday afternoon statement. “I ran for State Chairman on a platform of growing the party, increasing its influence and making it one that effectively amplifies the voice of grassroots Republicans. I am happy to report we were successful on all accounts.” Rinaldi has chaired the Texas GOP since 2021, when he was elected by the party’s executive committee to replace outgoing Chair Allen West. He was then reelected by delegates of the 2022 state GOP convention. His announcement comes amid an ongoing civil war between the Texas GOP’s far-right and more moderate, but still deeply conservative, wings. Rinaldi has been a key player in that fight as chairman, often accusing more moderate Republicans such as House Speaker Dade Phelan of being insufficiently conservative. A staunch ally of the party’s far-right wing and its billionaire funders, Rinaldi was particularly active in the 2024 primary elections, in which a dark-red wave swept many House incumbents out of office. Rinaldi noted the outcomes of the 2024 primaries in his Friday announcement, calling it a “political earthquake” that elevated “grassroots members” above “lobbyists, office holders and corporate donors.” Rinaldi also vowed in his statement to help elect his successor at this year’s state GOP convention. Minutes after Rinaldi announced his retirement, Abraham George announced he would run for party chair. Rinaldi — as well as Attorney General Ken Paxton and other Rinaldi allies — then endorsed George, who lost in his 2024 primary to Rep. Candy Noble, R-Lucas, by 5 percentage points. George will now face current Texas GOP Vice Chair Dana Myers to lead the party. Reaction to Rinaldi’s announcement was mixed — and emblematic of the Texas GOP’s internal strife. Paxton called him “tremendous,” and Rep. Nate Schatzline, R-Fort Worth, praised Rinaldi for “helping reform the party” before urging Republicans to support George’s run for chair. Others said his departure is an opportunity for the Texas GOP to change course. “While I wish Matt all the best, make no mistake that this is a great and welcomed opportunity for us to elevate and elect a conservative leader who will be laser-focused on uniting all Republicans around our shared mission of defeating liberals up and down the ballot in every corner of the state,” Rep. Jeff Leach, a Plano Republican and Rinaldi nemesis, told The Texas Tribune. Leaders of the Texas Democratic Party also blasted Rinaldi in a Friday evening statement, accusing him of “plunging the party into the depths of MAGA extremism” and “leading the charge to defund public education, curtail voting rights and restrict reproductive healthcare decisions for Texans.” Rinaldi served two terms in the House representing HD 115, north of Dallas, before losing in the 2018 general election to Rep. Julie Johnson, D-Farmers Branch. As a legislator, he was a reliable ally of the state’s far right and Tim Dunn and Farris Wilks, two West Texas oil billionaires who also bankrolled Rinaldi’s career in the House. Rinaldi was perhaps best known for calling immigration authorities on protesters during a House proceeding on a bill that cracked down on so-called “sanctuary cities.” As party chair, Rinaldi routinely amplified attacks against Phelan and other more-moderate members, castigating the speaker for allowing Democrats to chair a handful of House committees and accusing him of being drunk while presiding over House business last year. He also offered key support to Paxton during last year’s impeachment proceedings, and blasted Phelan and other House Republicans in the wake of Paxton’s acquittal by the Texas Senate. As the civil war escalated in the last months of 2023, some in the Texas GOP worried that Rinaldi had made the party too reliant on contributions from Dunn and Wilks. Rinaldi’s decision to endorse and campaign for challengers to fellow Republicans during this year’s primaries also drew the ire of some in the Texas GOP who said party leaders should be more neutral. Tensions over Rinaldi’s chairmanship came to a head late last year, following a scandal involving white supremacists and antisemites in the Texas GOP. In October, The Texas Tribune reported that Jonathan Stickland, then the leader of Dunn and Wilks’ main political action committee, Defend Texas Liberty, had hosted prominent white supremacist and Adolf Hitler admirer Nick Fuentes for several hours. Rinaldi was also spotted outside the office building while Fuentes was inside, but denied knowing he was there and said he would never meet with Fuentes. The meeting prompted Phelan and 60 other GOP House members to demand that fellow Republicans redirect donations from Defend Texas Liberty to pro-Israel charities. Roughly half of the Texas GOP’s executive committee also called on the party to cut ties with Defend Texas Liberty. Amid the scandal — and subsequent reporting by the Tribune that uncovered deeper ties between white supremacists and Defend Texas Liberty — Rinaldi routinely attacked the PAC’s critics, including Phelan. Earlier this year, the Tribune reported that Rinaldi was simultaneously working as an attorney for Wilks, one of Defend Texas Liberty’s two main funders. Responding to the scandals in November, the Texas GOP’s executive committee narrowly defeated a measure that would have banned the party from associating with Holocaust deniers, neo-Nazis and antisemites. Myers, the party’s VP who is running to replace Rinaldi, supported the measure. Rinaldi did not vote, but downplayed the need for it by saying that antisemitism was only a problem on the left. A watered-down version of the measure was adopted earlier this year. Dunn and Wilks meanwhile spun off a new political action committee, Texans United For a Conservative Majority, that backed a slate of successful candidates in the 2024 GOP primaries — giving the billionaires perhaps more power than ever over the Texas GOP and state Legislature.)

I spent the first 5 years of my life 1948-1954 in an apartment above a hardware store that was built in the 1870s. I spent the next 19 years of my life in a house that was built in 1926. I spend my first 8 years in school in a building that was built many decades earlier.)

— How migration to Chicago today compares with earlier inflows from Europe, the South and Mexico. As the city begins evicting migrants from shelters, Reset digs into the history of migration in Chicago. – Max Lubbers (COMMENT: What is your national origin? When did your ancestors immigrate? All my ancestors immigrated from what is now Germany during the 1840s and 1850s. On my father’s side, they immigrated to Chicago in 1844, they worked in a brick factory for 10 years, and then they homesteaded a farm in southeast Crete Township. My critics/opponents have always used that against me. They have always hinted/implied/argued/shout that the aforesaid gave me tremendous unfair advantages in life.)

FOX ILLINOIS
— Professor argues marriage ‘fundamentalism’ helps bolster White supremacy – JACKSON WALKER (COMMENT: My critics/opponents have always hinted/implied/argued/shouted that I unfairly benefitted from traditional marriage and family. My parents got married in 1945. They had me in 1948. My mother stayed home and raised me. They sent me to Trinity Lutheran Grade School in Crete 1953-1961 and then to Hope Lutheran Grade School in Park Forest 1961-1962 to stay with the Missouri Synod and then to Crete-Monee High School 1962-1966. They provided me with room and board while I a) did yard work 1962-1964, b) delivered newspapers 1962-1966, c) washed dishes 1964-1966, d) cleaned golf shoes, chipped slag, and pumped gasoline in 1966, and e) delivered mail 1966-1969. That enabled me to a) buy a 1958 Chevrolet Bel Air in 1964, a new 1966 Pontiac Tempest Sprint in 1966, a new 1968 Oldsmobile 442 in 1967, and a new 1969 Dodge Charger SE in 1968. That enabled me to pay for my college expenses at UIC 1966-1968 and at NIU 1969-1970. That enabled me to graduate debt-free from NIU with a bachelor’s degree in management and owning that Charger in 1970. Neither of my parents attended college. My father was only the first of my ancestors to earn a high school diploma. He fought brittle type 1 diabetes from childhood. He worked in the office of a nasty chemical plant on the east side of Chicago Heights and almost always worked second jobs to pay the family’s bills. My mother never attended high school. Further, ever since I got married in 1978, my critics/opponents have hinted/implied/argued/shouted that I have unfairly benefitted from that marriage. They hint/imply/argue/shout that if I had not gotten married, I would never had been able to pass the CPA examination on my first attempt in 1979, earn a master’s degree in accounting in 1980, pass the Certified Internal Auditor examination on my first attempt in 1981, become a licensed COPA in 1981, etc. In my defense, I had earned an MBA in 1976 and I had almost completed the requirements for a master’s degree in accounting in 1978.)

WIREPOINTS
— Privilege, affinity and equity: How DEI is playing out in Illinois schools – Ted Dabrowski (COMMENT: My grade school teachers and my high school teachers promoted personal responsibility. Thanks to them, I took college preparatory classes in high school, my ACT score was 24, I graduated in the upper 20% of my class, and I got accepted by UIC.)
https://wirepoints.org/privilege-affinity-and-equity-how-dei-is-playing-out-in-illinois-schools-wirepoints/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: But scratch beneath the surface and you see exactly what Kirsanow warned of: students being taught to see others as members of a racial or social group, not as individuals. Take the “affinity” groups that New Trier High School, just five miles from Evanston High School, created a couple of years ago. It’s one thing for students to come together under shared interests and backgrounds. But it’s another thing for a school district to sanction and promote numerous affiliate groups under the DEI umbrella. “Black and Brown Club.” “Young Asians with Power.” “White Anti-racist.” “Black Student Alliance.” All were listed during a presentation on the district’s DEI efforts. These aren’t groups based on common interests, but rather on racialized and politicized “shared identities.” . . . Despite the national move against equity as reported by the WSJ and most recently in Crains, New Trier shows no sign of slowing down its affinity group efforts – the school district has a new LinkedIn job posting for a Black and Brown Club Affinity Group Sponsor. And note the language listed under Qualifications: “Preference will be given to applicants who identify as Black, African-American, Hispanic and/or Latinx and/or have personal experience with or knowledge of the needs of this population.” Interesting, considering the recent ruling against affirmative action. . .A recent New Trier 9th-grade assignment shows how DEI can negatively impact students. A student I know was asked to measure his level of “privilege” through a series of questions in his freshman English class. The activity is not a problem in and of itself, but look at how “privilege” is framed by the material below and you can understand the student’s concern. “Privilege operates on personal, intrapersonal, cultural and institutional levels and gives advantages…to members of dominant groups to the expense of members of target groups…invisible to people who have it…privileges are unearned and they are granted to people whether they want those privileges or not.” In sum: If you are part of a dominant group you are privileged, you don’t need to work hard for success… things are handed to you. Whereas, if you aren’t privileged in these ways, even hard work won’t get you there. Examples of automatic privilege, as listed below, include “white” “male” “heterosexual” “middle class” “English-speaking” and more. It’s no wonder such language made a 9th-grader who can circle most of those areas “feel bad about himself.” I was told: “He was totally caught in the middle – very uncomfortable answering the questions and thinking the goal was to make him feel guilty, but at the same time he didn’t want to rock the boat and anger the teacher.” That doesn’t sound like a classroom that’s conducive to open discussions. DEI becomes particularly divisive when privilege is equated with oppression or racism, as is often done, and as you can see in some of the examples above. You’re either the oppressor or the oppressed, a bigot or a victim. Few claims could be more divisive or untrue. It should be obvious that many who might be called privileged are not racists or oppressors, and declaring them as such invites disharmony if not outright hatred between groups.)

NORTH COOK NEWS
— Proft criticizes Loyola Academy’s choice of instructional tool: ‘Spin the wheel and select a victim status’ (COMMENT: Democrat and RINO leaders ever-increasingly shout that the more of the following that you are, the more of a victim that you are: minority, female, younger, LGBTQ, non-Protestant, non-German American, and/or if your ancestors have not been in America for a long time. That is, Democrat and RINO leaders ever-increasingly shout that the more of the following that you are, the more of a victimizer that you are: White, male, older, heterosexual, Protestant, German American, and/or if your ancestors have been in America for a long time.)
https://northcooknews.com/stories/656729403-proft-criticizes-loyola-academy-s-choice-of-instructional-tool-spin-the-wheel-and-select-a-victim-status
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Chicago’s Morning Answer radio host Dan Proft stirred controversy by condemning Loyola Academy’s adoption of the “Wheel of Power/Privilege” instructional tool. He suggests that the activity entails assigning or identifying individuals with varying levels of privilege or victimhood based on chance. “Spin the wheel and select a victim status,” Proft posted on X. “The Wheel of Power/Privilege instructional featured at Loyola Academy HS in Wilmette, IL, a wealthy, honky enclave where the schools, even the ostensibly Catholic ones, are self-flagellation spas to release guilt toxins.” Profit’s critique underscores what he deems to be an excessive focus on guilt and victimhood within wealthy and predominantly white communities, particularly in educational institutions. Loyola Academy is comprised of over 2,000 students. The school has been in operation since its founding by the Jesuits in 1909. The school costs $19,950 per year to attend. The wheel is an example of intersectionality, a phrase coined by academics seeking to bundle together disparate elements of society. According to the National Review, the term comes from academic Kimberlé Crenshaw’s exploration of how various identity markers intersect to shape individual experiences. Critics note that the tendency in intersectionality advocates to monopolize the experiences of marginalized groups and highlights the danger of codifying identity hierarchies. Ultimately, critics argue for a nuanced understanding of social dynamics beyond rigid theoretical frameworks, emphasizing the importance of individual perception and critical engagement with reality. In her TED Talk, Crenshaw emphasized that if someone stands at the intersection of multiple forms of exclusion, they are likely to face the impact of both. Crenshaw calls for acknowledging this reality and advocating for victims of prejudice. “Many years ago, I began to use the term “intersectionality” to deal with the fact that many of our social justice problems like racism and sexism are often overlapping, creating multiple levels of social injustice,” Crenshaw said.)

They gave my job and my preferred corner office to my Black subordinate. In 1971, when I was 22 years old, Oldsmobile withdrew a job offer that I had accepted saying that Oldsmobile had just agreed to stop hiring Whites to settle an EEOC complaint.)

— Guess What It Takes to Become a Cop in Nashville Now. – STEPHEN GREEN (COMMENT: While I worked for the federal government for almost 30 years, my Democrat superiors ever-increasingly reduced requirements so that they could hire, retain, and promote more Democrats who were minority, female, and/or younger.)
https://pjmedia.com/vodkapundit/2024/03/18/guess-what-it-takes-to-become-a-cop-in-nashville-now-n4927404
(FROM THE ARTICLE: New York Mayor Ed Koch had a commonsense approach to hiring first responders, and it made a lifelong impression on me when I first heard it maybe 40 years ago. “I don’t care what sex a firefighter is,” Mayor Koch said all those years ago, “as long as they can carry a 200 pound Mayor out of a burning building.” When it comes to dangerous jobs — first responders, soldiers, sailors, pilots, industrial workers, etc. — every other consideration must come in second to the question of whether or not this particular applicant has the physical and mental stamina to do the job. Tell that to the folks in the Nashville Police Department where they just dropped an ability test requirement in order to increase its female force from 13% to 30%.)

For me, it was potential employers viewing me as being draft bait. My father had recently died and they did not believe that my application for a financial hardship draft deferment to help support my mother and brother would be approved. Further, potential employers were under tremendous pressure to hire minorities, females, and veterans. Further, my GPA was not that great because I had spent far too many hours working for the Park Forest Post Office instead of studying. Consequently, I accepted the only job offer that I got. It was Retail Sales Manager for the Firestone Store in Chicago Heights. It was a job that did not really require the bachelor’s degree in management that I had earned from NIU in 1970.)

https://www.newsweek.com/trumps-powerful-pitch-teamster-leaders-listen-your-members-ditch-democrats-opinion-1878581
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Union bosses are not unaware of the sea change in American politics that has been taking place in the last several years. The Democrats, once the party of the working class and zealous in defense of its interests, have long since abandoned them. Today, they represent the interests of the credentialed elites and the poor and are more interested in heeding Wall Street hedge fund managers’ pleas for trade deals that send manufacturing jobs abroad while importing more cheap labor from immigrants—whether legal or illegal—to keep the cost of doing business low. Their adherence to the woke playbook about prioritizing race over everything else has led them to think that it is fair that working class people should pay off the student loans of those with college degrees and making more money than they ever will, something that amounts to a massive regressive transfer of income from blue collar Americans to the professional laptop class.)

— Democrats and Republicans think differently about retirement. – Steve Vernon (COMMENT: My Democrat superiors, supervisors, coworkers, and subordinates saved far less of their income for retirement than my wife and I did. They spent much more of their income on immediate pleasures. My Democrat GAO superiors used what my wife and I had saved for our retirement to justify their forcing me to take their early retirement “offer” in 1997 when I was 49 years old. I should write a book about that.)

— Evangelical Christians are fierce Israel supporters. Now they are visiting as war-time volunteers – MELANIE LIDMAN (COMMENT: My many Jewish Democrat superiors and supervisors in the federal government were liberal, that is, they were anti-conservative, that is, they were anti-Republican. If I was working for them today, they would side with Humas. My having been baptized, raised, and confirmed as a Missouri Synod Lutheran, my being 100% German American, my being conservative, my being Republican, my having lived in Crete 1948-1972, and my lived in Wheaton since 1978 would make things even wore for me today.)

She donated to his congressional and gubernatorial campaigns. A visitor to Trump’s Mar-a-Lago resort multiple times, Gerson is also running in Tuesday’s primary as a Trump delegate from the 5th Congressional District.

— Mistakes come back to haunt state Rep. Adam Niemerg in heated downstate race. Niemerg’s Republican primary opponent, Jim Acklin, also faces nasty claims in the 102nd District race. – Rich Miller (COMMENT: If you run as a Republican, the more of the following that you are, the more negative that your opponents will go against you: conservative, White, male, older, non-poor, non-veteran, Protestant, German American, and/or if your ancestors have been in America for a long time. Further, the more of the aforesaid that you are, the more that your “mistakes” will come back to haunt you.)
https://chicago.suntimes.com/columnists/2024/03/15/adam-niemerg-jim-acklin-102nd-illinois-house-republican-primary-race-election-rich-miller
(FROM THE ARTICLE: “Adam Niemerg sure talks a lot, but what is he not telling you?” the ad’s announcer asked. “Well, there’s the DUI Niemerg got, more than twice the limit. And how he pleaded guilty to obscene conduct.” OK, let’s stop right there for a moment. Niemerg was busted in 2003 for DUI, speeding and possession/consumption of alcohol by a minor. He paid a fine and had to go to treatment. Then, on 4/20 (heh) of 2006, Niemerg was busted for obscene conduct. He pleaded guilty, paid a fine and was given 90 days supervision. Niemerg has not addressed the claims via his own advertising, even though “obscene conduct” can conjure up quite a large number of scenarios. Also, a lot of homeless people charged with peeing on trees end up in a heap of legal trouble, so it’s not that funny to them. The anti-Niemerg ad is also being pushed hard online, and as of last Friday afternoon, it had 232,000 YouTube views, which is more than twice the total population of a House district.)

— DEI Got Me Sacked From My Job. It didn’t matter that my critical Facebook posts made no reference to where I worked. – Brad McDowell (COMMENT: My Democrat superiors in the federal government ever-increasingly used Affirmative Action and DEI to waste my career and to get rid of me because I ever-increasingly opposed their political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, age discrimination, religious discrimination, and national origin discrimination. In 1988, when I was 40 years old, I became an active member in a class action lawsuit that charged them with reverse discrimination, age discrimination, and retaliation. Because of the aforesaid, they forced me to take their early retirement “offer” in 1997 when I was 49 years old. I should write a book about the aforesaid.)

But I nevertheless believed that they would let me work until I would have been eligible for regular retirement in 2003. But they forced me to take their early retirement “offer” in 1997.)

https://townhall.com/columnists/print/2636473
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Republicans’ embrace of “diversity” has been an unmitigated disaster, as illustrated most recently by Sen. Katie Britt, whose response to President Biden’s State of the Union address came with a double dose of diversity. Why was this first-term senator chosen? To boost her reelection chances? She’s from the reddest state in the Union, won her last election by 30 points, and her term doesn’t end until 2026. Because she’s an amazing public speaker? Quite obviously, it wasn’t that. She gave the response because she’s not a white male. The last time Republicans picked a white man to give the GOP response was in 2012, when Gov. Mitch Daniels gave a great speech, despite the glaring absence of any blubbering over the unique suffering of women and minorities. Which brings us to Katie. Asked to give the GOP response, she delivered it from her kitchen table because she’s a mom just like you, suburban woman who will never vote Republican. She not only was “diverse” herself, but she made sure to drag a minority into her argument against Biden’s border policy, which is to have no border. An open border, Britt told us, is bad for the illegals. This was in accordance with the modern rule of etiquette requiring that no policy be criticized unless it can be shown that it harms someone other than whites, men or Americans. Thus, for example, affirmative action has been actively screwing white people out of college admissions, jobs and promotions since at least 1970. (Allan Bakke found this out in 1973, when he was rejected from the University of California, Davis, medical school in order to make way for hilariously less-qualified minorities.) Even after decades of this open, egregious race discrimination, Republicans are terrified of stating the obvious: Discriminating against white people is unfair to white people. Instead, the preferred argument is: “It’s not good for black people, either!” Perhaps, but they’re not complaining. And we’re still stuck with the unfairness to whites. It is a remarkable fact that, after more than half a century of rank race discrimination against whites, the Supreme Court finally decided affirmative action was unconstitutional only after it was shown that racial preferences harm Asians. Similarly, Britt’s argument against the Biden policy of dragging millions of illegal aliens into our country was not that it’s unfair to Americans, although it’s their home that’s being wrecked. No, it was that our nonexistent border is bad for Mexicans. Thus, Britt said: “I spoke to a woman who shared her story with me. She had been sex-trafficked by the cartels starting at age 12. She told me not just that she was raped every day, but how many times a day she was raped. “The cartels put her on a mattress in a shoebox of a room, and they sent men through that door, over and over again, for hours and hours on end. “We wouldn’t be OK with this happening in a third world country. This is the United States of America, and it’s past time we start acting like it.” Democrats are permanently destroying the greatest country on Earth — which happens to be where we live — but Rosalita’s life has gone from a negative 9, living in Mexico, to a negative 10 being human-trafficked. As with affirmative action, the GOP can only attack illegal immigration by saying it’s bad for the illegal immigrants, who apparently are driven by some invisible force to stream into our country. Their illegal behavior is something we’re doing to them. Help! Someone keeps burning down my house! GOP: Oh my gosh — was the arsonist hurt? In producing a diverse person to make her case, Britt botched the story six ways from Sunday. As we now know, the serial rapes didn’t happen in this country, but in Mexico. Even if they had occurred here, who did Britt imagine was doing the raping? As described in my book “Adios, America!”, child rape is rife in Latin America. It’s their culture, having nothing to do with our enticing open border. My idea: Let’s not let that rape culture come here. The rapes also didn’t happen under Biden, but under President George W. Bush. So that was great. Britt’s bleating for a diverse person gave Democrats something to talk about other than the thousands of American lives snuffed out by illegals at a rate of about 40 a week. Britt could have talked about 27-year-old Washington State Trooper Christopher Gadd, killed days before the SOTU by an illegal in a “sanctuary state”; 10-year-old A.J. Wise, killed while walking home from school last month by an illegal alien hit-and-run driver in Midland, Texas; Travis Wolf, killed in Missouri by a boozed-up illegal in December — the night before Travis’ 12th birthday; Diane Hill Luckett, mother of three, who died in March of last year after being smashed into by a drunk illegal alien with a string of criminal convictions to his name (and zero deportations); or David Breaux and Karim Abou Najm, stabbed to death by an illegal alien on a killing spree in Davis, California, last April. Half of the murdered Americans I just listed were black. But when it comes to immigration, black Americans might as well be white men. “Illegal immigrant” trumps “American” because diversity is our greatest strength.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: All are longtime Republicans who backed Nikki Haley in her presidential bid. All held leadership positions in her campaign. And all three are deeply skeptical of Donald Trump, or outright opposed to him. MacGovern won’t vote for Trump. Giles doesn’t see herself supporting Trump this time after casting ballots for him twice. While Moore – also a two-time Trump voter – said she is leaning against backing him again, calling him a “self-serving narcissistic and a bully and he is not the role model I want for my children and grandchildren.” Now that Haley has exited the GOP presidential primary on the heels of big losses on Super Tuesday, attention is turning to Trump’s general election campaign and whether he can unite the GOP behind him to take on President Joe Biden. Haley demonstrated in state after state that a significant minority of primary voters wanted a candidate other than Trump, and the question is whether they will accept the polarizing former president as their nominee. The answer for some is an emphatic no. “I could never vote for Donald Trump,” MacGovern said.)

All during the almost 18 years that I worked for GAO, at least 1 of my 3 Chicago office superiors was Jewish. During my last 8 years there, 2 of those 3 were Democrat, liberal, feminist, Jewish, and younger than me. They always ranked me in the bottom half of my coworkers for pay-for-performance purposes. They ignored/dismissed/belittled my earning a) job-related professional certifications in 1990, 1994, 1996, and 1997 and b) a job-related master’s degree in 1997. They succeeded in forcing me to take their early retirement “offer” in 1997 when I was 49 years old. It is called political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, age discrimination, religious discrimination, and national origin discrimination.

— President Joe Biden, in the lead-up to the State of the Union, ordered fencing to be installed around the U.S. Capitol, ostensibly for security reasons. To protect him from the masses. To save him from any clashes. This, as America’s national borders remain open and historical levels of illegals march around our country and murder young nursing students named Laken Riley, or as Biden calls her, Lincoln Riley. – Cheryl K.

— California to help ‘undocumented immigrants’ purchase homes? – Eric Utter (COMMENT: What helped you become a first time home buyer? For me, it was working for IRS for 15 months, working part-time for a Firestone Store for 18 months, and working for that store full-time for 7 months before that.)
https://www.americanthinker.com/blog/2024/03/california_to_help_undocumented_immigrants_purchase_homes.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: California Assemblymember Joaquin Arambula has introduced Assembly Bill 1840, aimed at expanding home ownership opportunities for “undocumented immigrants” in the state. The bill would make illegal aliens eligible for first time homebuyer loans. The bill, as originally introduced earlier this year, was aimed at low- and middle-income citizens, but Arambula apparently decided that was too exclusive, and therefore recently proposed his updated version. This is yet another kick in the shorts to citizens, especially since the formerly Golden State has the highest priced housing — and by far the most homeless people — in the nation. California is already the only state to fund comprehensive health care for undocumented immigrants.)

https://dailycaller.com/2024/03/09/naked-man-lgbtq-flag-casually-strolls-down-street-seattle-washington/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: A naked man waved a rainbow flag while strolling through vehicular traffic on a street in Seattle, Washington, a video showed. The unidentified man appeared oblivious of his immediate environment as he blithely strolled through traffic, with cars appearing to wait for or make their way past him, according to the video, shared Saturday on Twitter by radio host Jason Rantz of KTTH Radio under the caption, “Seattle is thriving.” The incident appeared to have occurred in the Ravenna neighborhood of Seattle, according to another video by the journalist Andy Ngo. The video showed what seemed to be the same man draped in the flag and lying down spreadeagled in the middle of the road, obstructing vehicular traffic. “And this why here is why my child won’t step foot in this city! It used to be a fun place to go down and explore but it’s no longer a safe place for families,” a user reacted to the video. “Exposing the little things in Seattle,” replied another. “So many beautiful cities in our great country have been destroyed… Very sad,” another said. Another wondered why laws against indecent exposure were not enforced. A user seemed to imply that the person was experiencing a mental health crisis. It is not known whether the individual was homeless or unsheltered. First-time homelessness spiked across the country between 2021 and 2022 by 25%, according to the United States Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). By 2023, a record 653,100-odd persons “were experiencing homelessness on a single night in 2023 – a 12% increase (or about 70,650 more people) from 2022,” the HUD stated. Washington was one of the five states with the largest increases in homelessness, according to HUD data. A posse of naked men cycled through some of Seattle‘s streets as part of Seattle’s LGBTQ+ Pride Parade in full view of children last June, according to several reports. The “all ages” parade to “Challenge Body Shame/Build Self Esteem” and create “Pride for Every Body” drew criticism as it crossed a line for some, according to the Washington Times. “[T]he role of the Seattle Police Department [SPD] at this particular event was to assure the safety and security of the overall event – not to regulate activities that are better left to parade organizers and the permit process,” the SPD reportedly said in a statement regarding the event to the fact-checking website, Snopes.)

FROM NATIONAL CENTER-LEFT LEANING SOURCES

ASSOCIATED PRESS
— Democrat and RINO leaders ever-increasingly hint/imply/argue/shout that if minorities and/or females are underrepresented in certain jobs, it is because Whites and/or men discriminate against them. But what about bad jobs? Minorities and/or females were underrepresented in all the jobs that I had because all the jobs that I had were bad jobs. Few if any minorities and females want to do yard work, deliver newspapers, wash dishes, clean golf shoes, chip slag, pump gasoline, deliver mail, work on an automobile assembly line, sell tires, automotive services, and major appliances, pump more gasoline, collect delinquent taxes, or audit federal agencies. It was extremely difficult for my employers to recruit and retain qualified minorities and females for the bad jobs that I had because with Affirmative Action and DEI, the minorities and females they wanted to hire, retain, and promote got better jobs elsewhere. Consequently, my employers gave the minorities and females who they were able to hire and retain tremendous preference over me.

Far too many of them reject far too many planks in the Republican Party platform, most commonly, its personal 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. Far too many of them are Democrats and Democrat plants, Libertarians and Libertarian plants, Greens and Green plants, Independents and Independent plants, and RINOs who read them for “opposition research.” Far too many of them blame me and blame my newsletters for their problems, for your problems, for my problems, and for everyone’s problems.
