— State GOP picks new leaders to ‘beat the machine,’ including Palatine’s Del Mar. – Marni Pyke (COMMENT: Illinois Republicans anxiously await a press release on this from the Illinois Republican Party (IRP). If/when the IRP forms a committee to reach out to conservatives, that is, to platform Republicans, that is, to its base, I volunteer to serve on that committee. The overwhelming majority of the aforesaid want direct election of IRP State Central Committee members.)
https://www.dailyherald.com/20240814/illinois-state-politics/state-gop-picks-new-leaders-to-beat-the-machine-including-palatines-del-mar/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: A northwest suburbanite is taking a leadership role with the Illinois GOP as the party works to rebuild and end what its leader calls the “blue funk.” State Central Committee member Aaron Del Mar of Palatine has been chosen by Chair Kathy Salvi as an Illinois Republican Party co-chair, along with state Sen. Jason Plummer of Edwardsville and State Central Committee member Judy Diekelman of Thornton. Salvi also picked Joan McCarthy Lasonde of Wilmette as vice chair. “Co-Chairs Aaron Del Mar, Sen. Jason Plummer, and Judy Diekelman as well as Vice Chair Joan McCarthy Lasonde and all of our leaders across the state represent the diverse opinions of our party and our state,” Salvi said Wednesday. “This group will broaden our coalition, expand our footprint, and will beat the machine that Democrats like (former Speaker) Mike Madigan and (Gov.) J.B. Pritzker have built.” Salvi took office in July vowing to “make Illinois red again,” and end the party’s “blue funk.” With a woman at the helm of the state GOP and his background as a Filipino- American, “this is a very historic time,” said Del Mar. “This will be the first time the Illinois Republican Party has had a person of color in leadership. “I’m very excited. Kathy has a different personality than I do, she brings different strengths so I think we very much complement each other.” Del Mar, a businessman who ran for lieutenant governor in 2022, was a Republican National Convention delegate in July, and has served as Cook County Republican chairman and Palatine village councilman. The Illinois GOP faces challenges in a heavily Democratic state and recently lost Chair Don Tracy, who blamed party infighting for his resignation. One key to success is to make sure “grass-roots organizations and grass-roots members of the Republican Party have a voice,” Del Mar said. “They’re the people who show up at the monthly meetings, the people that put lawn signs into the ground, that march in the parades. I think for far too long, they’ve been ignored and they’ve been taken for granted.” Del Mar, who campaigned statewide in 2022, hopes to bridge divisions between rural conservative and urban moderate Republicans. “If we can create a relationship where there’s a conversation and people have a better understanding — that adds a lot of value,” Del Mar said, adding he’s visiting downstate Illinois soon. “If you want buy-in from those (rural) counties you have to show up.” Del Mar’s father, a mechanical engineer, immigrated from the Philippines. His mother is a retired nurse of German/Swedish descent who grew up on Chicago’s South Side. “When they start talking about issues like immigration, those things hit home and I can give a personal story,” Del Mar said.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: Chartered buses will bring demonstrators from Minnesota, Michigan, Indiana, Wisconsin and beyond, said a chief organizer behind planned marches next week, Hatem Abudayyeh, the national chair of the U.S. Palestinian Community Network advocacy group. Abudayyeh said he held a virtual meeting with members across the country to gauge interest in changing direction after Biden stepped aside from seeking the nomination. There was quick consensus, he said. “We’re not going to do anything different. We’re going to mobilize,” Abudayyeh said. “Harris represents the administration; she represents Biden. There is nothing that she has expressed independently that tells us she does not support the policies.”)

— ’Idiocracy’ is upon us. – J.A. Frascino
https://www.americanthinker.com/blog/2024/08/idiocracy_is_upon_us.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: For decades America functioned as a meritocracy, the land of opportunity with freedom of speech and limited government. With the recent ascent of the radical left as a political force, these values have undergone erosion by DEI, identity politics, cancel culture, “newspeak”, and government bureaucratic intrusion. The radical left challenges patriotism, religion, traditional family structure as our raison d’être, our identity. The resulting divisiveness drives us into ideologic rabbit holes. Tribalism pervades the culture. We identify now as liberal or conservative with ideologic chips on our shoulders. We have evolved into a partisan ideocracy. And now, with the presumptive Democrat ticket in the offing, we are on the brink of evolving into an idiocracy.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: Social media influencers got the royal treatment at the White House on Wednesday as President Joe Biden gave a nod to their ability to hold sway with millions of loyal followers. The White House played host to a group of more than 100 influencers, also known as content creators, across a range of media platforms — from chefs and makeup artists to fitness gurus and medical students — to talk about issues including mental health, pay equity and the abuse of artificial intelligence. Biden stopped by to tell the influencers gathered in the Indian Treaty Room in the White House complex: “The fact is, you are the future.” “You’re the source of the news,” he said. “You are the new possibilities. You are the new breakthrough in how we communicate.” Biden added, to laughter: “And that’s why I invited you to the White House, because I’m looking for a job.”)

ILLINOIS FAMILY ACTION
— Action Items For The IL GOP – David E. Smith (COMMENT: Bailey calls for the Illinois Republican Party to censure Edgar, Kinzinger, Ray LaHood, and Walsh for promoting Harris. Have your critics/opponents tried to censure you? My critics/opponents tried but failed to get the Illinois Center Right Coalition (ICRC) to censure me in 2006 for my GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters. They succeed in throwing off the ICRC Steering Committee in 2007. I should write about that. I would focus on those who are still active today and who could have and should have come to my defense but did not. In 2006 and 2007, I was a) the chairman of TAPROOT Republicans of Illinois, b) the Republican fundraiser for Wheaton Independence Day parades and fireworks, c) a member of the Milton Township Republican Organization, and d) a member of the Wheaton Chamber of Commerce Government Affairs Committee. I had spent lots of my time and my money helping elect in general elections those Republican candidates who had won primary elections.)
https://illinoisfamilyaction.org/2024/08/07-bailey-action-items-for-the-il-gop/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Former State Senator Darren Bailey (R-Louisville) has been posting personal video content on his Bailey for Illinois Facebook page for years now. These updates include political commentary, campaign updates, a Christian devotional readings and prayer. Since these video commentaries are very informative and encouraging, I often share these postings on my own personal social media platforms. One such recent video post deserves much greater attention by a much greater audience. In his video post on Tuesday, August 6th, Darren highlighted some issues that have been on the minds of grass-root conservatives for some time regarding the Illinois Republican Party. He highlights four points that we list below along with the transcript of his commentary. However, the most important call-to-action item – one that will resonate with conservative voters across the state – is the emergence of so-called “Republicans for Harris,” – yes, extreme left-wing Kamala Harris. This group of unprincipled politicians aim to peel away votes from Donald Trump. Illinois mugwumps Adam Kinzinger, Jim Edgar, Ray LaHood and Joe Walsh are among the high-profile snollygosters publicly endorsing Harris and encouraging others to vote for her. (Read more HERE.) Their duplicity is astonishing. Darren also brings to our attention something called “The Edgar Fellows Program” – an initiative launched by former Illinois Governor Jim Edgar (RINO) to develop “leadership and governing capacity in Illinois.” The program focuses on fostering respectful and collaborative leadership to address major policy issues, emphasizing the importance of statesmanship over partisan, ethnic, and regional rivalries. This program is run through the Institute of Government and Public Affairs at the University of Illinois. Darren’s is absolutely correct to call for a censure of these traitors. Not only should township and county Republican organizations issue resolutions to censure these individuals, so should the Illinois Republican State Central Committee (SCC). Therefore, we encourage you to take action and speak out. The corporate media is celebrating these turncoats and giving them a platform to denigrate the Republican nominee. We must make it clear that they DO NOT speak for us. Take ACTION: Click HERE to send a message to the members of the Illinois Republican SCC to urge them to censor Kinzinger, Edgar, LaHood and Walsh. Republican officials should not ignore those who claim the “Republican” mantel but then openly disparage policy planks, principles and publicly work against the GOP nominee for POTUS. To be clear, we are very grateful that these things are being discussed, and for our part, we hope you will consider these important points of reformation and speak out to the Republican State Central Committee to encourage them to heed these changes. The following four points, attributed to Tom DeVore, former GOP candidate for Illinois Attorney General, are summarized here: 1.) The Illinois GOP should stay out of primary races. 2.) The Illinois GOP should stay out of the campaign efforts of Springfield’s House Republican Organization (HRO) and Senate Republican Organization (SRO). 3.) The Illinois GOP should fully support Republican nominees over Democrat nominees – especially in state-wide races. 4.) The Illinois GOP should reject donations from groups who engage in activities that are contrary to the Republican Party, i.e. Illinois Teachers Unions. Watch Darren’s video commentary here or read the transcript below for more important information.)
ROCK ISLAND COUNTY REPUBLICANS

I would focus on the aforesaid who continue to take the most/biggest adverse actions against me. I would focus on the aforesaid who reject the most planks in the Republican Party platform.)

Most commonly, those candidates charge me with painting them as being more conservative than they want to be painted.

FED WEEK
— Auditors Made Calls to 76 IRS Taxpayer Assistance Service Lines; 2 Were Answered (COMMENT: Have you ever phoned IRS with a tax question? If you did during the 1974 filing season, the IRS employee who answered your call was one of my subordinates. Back then, as a 25-year-old GS-11 (currently $80,994/year) IRS Revenue Officer, I supervised all of the IRS employees, which included a rotating staff of about 90 IRS Revenue Agent trainees, in IRS’s new downtown Chicago office who answered taxpayer questions using IRS’s new CentiPhone system. Because of my job performance, the IRS manager who had given me that developmental opportunity and who had promoted me in 1972 and 1973 promoted me to GS-12 (currently $97,079/year) in 1974. But my Democrat IRS superiors soon got rid of him because they were furious that he given me that developmental opportunity and promoted me instead of my Democrat coworkers who were minority, female, and/or veteran. My Democrat superior who led the successful effort to get rid of him was a veteran who was furious that I had avoided the Vietnam War draft.)
https://www.fedweek.com/federal-managers-daily-report/auditors-made-calls-to-76-irs-taxpayer-assistance-service-lines-2-were-answered/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The IRS inspector general’s office called all 76 local taxpayer assistance center lines—offices whose mission is to help taxpayers resolve problems—but just two of the calls were answered by a live person, the IG has said. Two of the lines were not in service, while the other calls were sent to voice mail boxes — 16 of which were full and could not accept a message. Other issues included inconsistent recorded scripted messaging and callback time frames, discrepancies in contact information and discrepancies in information on recorded messages. The report said that “may discourage taxpayers from seeking help with their tax issues, being compliant with the tax system, and not receiving the assistance they deserve in resolving their tax issues.” The IG said the experience — conducted in response to a hotline complaint from a tax professional seeking help for a client due a refund who was experiencing a financial hardship — paralleled one from last year when it called 102 IRS customer service numbers and 21 of them placed the calls on hold for more than 30 minutes. It said that in response to an alert it issued, agency management took steps including assuring that websites have up-to-date information posted and that voicemail boxes are monitored prevent them from filling up. The IRS also is “exploring technology to transcribe voicemails so employees in other areas can help return calls and to expand the size of voicemail boxes to prevent them from becoming full.”)

— Can Democracy Be Saved? – Burton Abrams (COMMENT: Democrats ever-increasing use democracy a) to take opportunities, income, and assets away from Republicans and b) to give those opportunities, that income, and those assets to Democrats. GAO works for Congress. In Diersen v. GAO, the Democrat federal courts constructively ruled that GAO did exactly what Congress wanted GAO to do, that is, a) to take my job and my preferred corner office away from me and b) to give my job and my preferred corner office to my Black Democrat subordinate.)
https://www.americanthinker.com/blog/2023/05/can_democracy_be_saved_.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Elections matter. But just as important is the quality of the electorate. One of my long-time and wise colleagues who has passed on, Professor Bertram Levin, some years ago pointed out to me the irony that a democracy can destroy itself by voting itself into communism. Chicago, a beautiful and once vibrant city, has proven the point. Brandon Johnson, the new mayor, is an avowed communist. His recent characterization of businesses as evil profit-mongers is sure to accelerate Chicago’s death spiral as businesses flee the city. Johnson should not be blamed; the electorate should. The quality of the electorate can have profound effects on society. Argentina, one of the highest-income countries in the world in 1900, changed its voting rules early in the 20th century. The new voters had grandiose progressive ideas to redistribute wealth. Argentina became a third-world country and continues to suffer today.)

— The Draft, Student Loan Forgiveness and College Privilege. Debates over deferments and debt relief raise similar questions about education and democracy. – Michael Toth (COMMENT: Avoiding the draft with student draft deferments 1966-1970 and with a financial hardship draft deferment 1970-1971 was my biggest mistake in life. My critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes used my avoiding the draft against me viciously. I should write a book about that.)
https://www.wsj.com/articles/the-draft-student-loans-and-college-privilege-fdr-deferment-civics-biden-2507dc82
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The broader context of the mid-20th-century debate over educational privilege was student deferments from the military draft. It’s a useful analogy for today’s debate, and it illustrates how higher-education interests succeeded decades ago in creating a privileged place above the ordinary duties of American civic life. The U.S. instituted the draft in 1940, more than a year before Congress declared war on Japan and Germany. FDR, who came out for the draft at the 1940 Democratic National Convention, championed universal military service by able-bodied males as an expression of national unity and democratic solidarity. On the day of the first draft lottery, Roosevelt read, with great fanfare, from letters written by Catholic, Jewish and Protestant leaders in support of conscription. Roosevelt was keen that the public needed assurance that the draft was “absolutely democratic and made no distinction between men of different social ranks or economic status,” as the New York Times editorialized in praising William McChesney Martin, president of the New York Stock Exchange (and later Federal Reserve chairman), for enlisting as an Army private. Already educators were pressing for special treatment for students, which concerned FDR. Writing to the director of the Selective Service, the president was clear that he didn’t want “the mere matriculation into college” to “serve as a means of evading compulsory military training.” The pressure from educators during World War II was largely ineffectual. The need for manpower drove Congress in 1942 to lower the draft age to 18 from 21. From 1942 to 1943, enrollment in college and professional school plunged by nearly 40% as many college-age men answered the call of service. By 1944 the Selective Service was granting only around 10,000 student deferments a year for undergraduates—compared with 1.6 million deferments for male farm workers and 264,000 for men with dependents. But after World War II, educators began to gain the upper hand. For educational and industry leaders of the era, defending the country from nuclear attack required turning away from the democratic values of shared sacrifice in uniform. The stated intention of the educators who pushed for a broader student deferment program was to protect the future of the hard sciences. Still, some worried that the efforts to shield a special class of students would easily spread to other academic pursuits. Conant wrote Eisenhower in 1948 that he was against “the whole business” of student deferments and worried that college campuses would become havens for draft dodgers. Ike was sympathetic to that view. Like FDR, he believed that universal military service was the “only democratic way” to defend the country. As president, he directed the Selective Service to tighten graduate-school deferments in the face of opposition from elite scientists. Student deferments exploded during the 1960s. In part this was a function of demographics. With the arrival of baby boomers, college enrollment skyrocketed. But student deferments for otherwise draft-eligible college men grew at a faster rate than college matriculation. Between 1959 and 1969, the number of men in college doubled, from 2.3 million to 4.7 million. The number of draft deferments increased more than 12-fold, from 179,000 to 2.26 million during the same period. Much of the expansion in student deferments was driven by a change in values on the part of students, faculty and administrators. After FDR announced the draft, the National Association of State Universities registered its “unalterable opposition” to blanket student deferments, while hundreds of private institutions, including Harvard and Columbia, created three-year curricula to facilitate military service. By the Vietnam era, the tide had turned. Signs reading “draft beer, not students” appeared at antiwar protests. University presidents often joined students in opposing the war and the draft. FDR had formed a political coalition uniting scientific and educational elites with the working class. Student deferments helped shatter it. “When Walter Reuther”—president of the United Automobile Workers—“realizes his people are doing the dying, while the auto executive sons keep getting school deferments, there could be hell to pay,” a perspicacious labor official wrote to President Lyndon B. Johnson. Sen. Ted Kennedy and Sargent Shriver, George McGovern’s future running mate, both called in 1967 for an end to student deferments. In a nod to the charges of class bias, Johnson ended graduate-school deferments in February 1968, the month before he withdrew his candidacy for renomination. Republicans won five of the next six presidential elections. Conscription ended in 1973, and with it the debate on student deferments. But the political divide over whether universities and their students are entitled to special privileges remains stark—although it sometimes cuts across conventional liberal-conservative lines.)

— Republican Puchalski donates to Conroy (COMMENT: Your political donations say more about you than anything that you can say about yourself.)
https://dupagepolicyjournal.com/stories/641713218-republican-puchalski-donates-to-conroy
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Republican Donald Puchalski donated $500 to progressive Democratic DuPage County Board Chair Deb Conroy. Puchalski, of Addison, was a DuPage County Board member but lost in the fall 2022 election as an incumbent. He previously held a 1st District seat. The 68-year-old attorney had been a member of the DuPage County Board since 2005 when he was appointed to the public body. When running for re-election to the slot in 2022 he called for a need “to be conservative in spending” and suggested DuPage County keep “partisan politics off the board floor.” Puchalski’s former seat was from a traditionally conservative area of the county and included includes Bensenville, Wood Dale and parts of Elmhurst and Bloomingdale. His law firm, the Law Offices of Donald E. Puchalski focuses on immigration issues and domestic relations. He was previously a trustee for Addison Township, a member of the Addison Police Pension Board and a Republican precinct committeeman. “I think every government has to live within their means, and I think DuPage government has been very fiscally responsible and proactive,” Puchalski said when first appointed to the board in 2005. Puchalski and current GOP DuPage County Board member Sam Tornatore both donated to Conroy’s campaign at the same time after receiving financial support from GOP township organizations in Addison.)

— Anheuser-Busch accused of racist, discriminatory hiring policies under the ‘cloak of equity’ – Chris Donaldson (COMMENT: Democrat and RINO employers ever-increasingly use Affirmative Action, Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion to not hire Republicans and to get rid of their employees who are Republican.)
https://www.bizpacreview.com/2023/04/18/anheuser-busch-accused-of-racist-discriminatory-hiring-policies-under-the-cloak-of-equity-1350992/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The maker of Budweiser and Bud Light as well as a slew of other liquid libations is being sued by a conservative legal group over a program that ostensibly promotes diversity in hiring in terms of women and minorities but is discriminatory toward white and Asian Americans in pursuit of equity, a racially exclusionary ideology that is pervasive in modern day Corporate America. In the federal civil rights complaint filed by America First Legal, which was founded by former Trump adviser Stephen Miller, the group requests that “the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) open a civil rights investigation of Anheuser-Busch’s systemic and discriminatory hiring, promotion, and job-training employment practices,” according to a news release posted on its website. “Under the cloak of ‘equity,’ woke companies like Anheuser-Busch proudly discriminate based on race, color, national origin, and sex in their employment practices,” the statement reads. “For example, Anheuser-Busch created a Leadership Accelerator Program that provides ‘formal mentorship, executive interaction, and leadership development curriculum for those who identify with historically underrepresented groups as they join our organization in a full-time capacity.’ Only specific individuals of specified races, colors, and national origins – notably excluding White and Asian Americans – are invited to apply.”)

DAILY HERALD
— JANUARY 18, 2022 FLASHBACK: DuPage County misses deadline to approve new precinct maps – Katlyn Smith (COMMENT: Why isn’t the Daily Herald reporting on what is happening now on this? For example, the Daily Herald could report a) which new proposed redrawn precincts contain two or more current precinct committeemen, b) their names and party affiliations, c) if they are currently serving as a township and/or county party organization officer, and d) what they are going to do if the new proposed precinct lines are not changed. For example, the Daily Herald could ask them a) will they run in 2024 or not run in 2024 no matter what and why and b) will they run only if they can run unopposed and why? I was appointed as a live-in-precinct (LIP) committeeman in 1999, elected in 2000, and then reelected every 2 years since. I have been drawn into the same new proposed precinct with Ives. If the Daily Herald asked me what I am going to do if the new proposed lines are not changed, I would say that if Ives runs, I will not. Ives represents the 3rd Congressional District on the Illinois Republican Party State Central Committee. Her home is in the middle of the new proposed precinct while my home is on the far western edge. Further, since the 2015 gerrymandering, Ives has represented far more of the Republican voters in the new proposed precinct than I have. She currently represents all those east and south of her home, and before the 2015 gerrymandering, she represented those east of Warrenville Road. Further the Daily Herald could ask about the impact of this precinct redrawing on leadership of the a) the 9 Republican township organizations, b) the 9 Democrat township organizations, c) the Republican county party organization, and the d) Democrat county party organization. To be eligible serve as an officer of the Milton Township Republican Organization, you have to be an elected Republican Precinct Committeeman in Milton Township. With fewer precincts, there will be fewer eligible to serve. A revised map is scheduled to be presented to the finance committee on April 11, 2023 with a public hearing. That revised map is to be posted on the County Board website for public review and comment. A new map is scheduled to be presented to the finance committee on May 9, 2023. That map is scheduled to be voted on by the County Board on June 13 or 27, 2023.)
https://www.dailyherald.com/news/20220118/dupage-county-misses-deadline-to-approve-new-precinct-maps
(FROM THE ARTICLE: DuPage County Board members have missed a state-imposed deadline for redrawing election precinct maps. Election officials and county board members are now pointing fingers at each other, with the blown deadline also exposing a rift among Democrats. An elections omnibus bill signed into law by Gov. J.B. Pritzker in November gave county boards a 60-day deadline to set new boundaries so that each precinct would contain as close to 1,200 registered voters “as may be practicable.” The legislation also required precincts to sit within a single congressional and state legislative district whenever possible. Precinct boundaries determine polling places where voters cast in-person ballots. Democratic and Republican committeemen, the foot soldiers of local political parties, also are elected from precincts every two years. The DuPage County clerk’s office proposed a reconfiguration that would have expanded the size of precincts while reducing their overall number — from 930 to 607 — to comply with the law. But in a 10-6 vote last week the day before the Jan. 15 deadline, Republicans and some Democrats on the county board rejected the precinct maps drawn by the clerk’s office. Opponents in both parties objected to what they said was a lack of input in the precinct redistricting process. County Clerk Jean Kaczmarek and supporters say the decision could leave the county vulnerable to a lawsuit that would attempt to force the board to meet the requirements of state law. “The decision of some DuPage County Board members of both parties to openly defy state law and prioritize politics over voting rights is deeply disappointing. Precincts exist as an organizational unit for the benefit of the voters, not for politicians,” Kaczmarek, a Glen Ellyn Democrat, said in a statement. Election division employees in her office drafted new precinct boundaries “without political favoritism,” the statement read. The maps were released to county board members just days before they were supposed to vote. The proposed maps also were posted on the county’s website and “provided directly to the chairs of the DuPage County Democratic and Republican parties.” “The county board’s failure to align DuPage County’s election precincts with the boundaries of its representative districts will cause inconvenience and confusion for voters and increase the cost of elections for our taxpayers,” Kaczmarek said in the statement. Jim Zay, the board’s longest-serving member and chairman of the county Republican Party, said he had been asking the election division “from the end of November on” when officials would be able to see the maps. “And then finally, I was told you have to send an email to request to see them,” Zay said. GOP precinct committeemen weren’t happy with the proposal, Zay said. “You had a lot of long-term committeemen that have been there where two or three of them were now drawn into the same precinct,” he said. Lynn LaPlante, a Glen Ellyn Democrat, also expressed frustration with the “lack of communication.” Board member Grant Eckhoff issued his own statement voicing displeasure with both state lawmakers and Kaczmarek, saying officials refused “to be bullied into a bad vote by the garbage legislation coming out of Springfield.” “Due to the state legislature passing legislation to require an amended map in November instead of the spring, the clerk only had 60 days to prepare the map,” said Eckhoff, a Wheaton Republican. “The map was released to the DuPage County Board and the public just five days before a vote was to be taken on the map. “Unfortunately, prior to the release, the clerk did not meet with board members or make a presentation to discuss the map. This is not the manner in which legislation should be presented to the board or the public for review and comment.” But board member Liz Chaplin disputed the notion that some board members were blindsided by the legislation. In an October meeting attended by Republicans and Democrats, the county’s lobbyists told the board’s legislative committee about an effort in Springfield to increase the precinct size from 600 to at least 1,200 residents. “The county board in my opinion dropped the ball, and for the members to say that they didn’t know this was coming, I’m astounded,” Chaplin said. Chaplin voted in support of the maps along with fellow Democrats Dawn DeSart, Paula Deacon Garcia, Julie Renehan, Greg Schwarze and Mary Ozog. As part of the county’s legislative agenda, board members made a priority of “giving local election jurisdictions the flexibility to increase the size of election precincts,” Chaplin said. “In our last two years, in 2020 and 2021, that language was in our legislative agenda,” Chaplin said. “Now, I don’t know if my fellow colleagues don’t read their packets or understand what they’re voting on, but we absolutely did do that.” Having fewer precincts and fewer Election Day polling places would have resulted in a costs savings, said Chaplin, chair of the finance committee. The existing boundaries will now remain in place as other counties move forward with precinct redistricting. Primary elections will be held June 28.)

I was elected Precinct Committeeman in 2000 and every 2 years since. I served as the Milton Township Republican Organization (MTRO) webmaster 2000-2004 and 2008-2010. I served on annual Oktobefest fundraiser committees during the 2000s and ran straw polls during those events. I unsuccessfully ran for the open MTRO Treasurer office in 2004. I have aways hand-delivered campaign literature and sample ballots to all the Republican homes in my precinct. Up until recently, I always gathered 30 signatures from the Republican voters in my precinct for all the Republican primary candidates. Since 1999, I have had by far the best MTRO meeting attendance record. I would focus on how the MTRO officers have treated me and how they have treated my GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters. I would focus on how they treated my service as the Republican fundraiser for Wheaton Independence Day parades and fireworks 2005-2019.)

(FROM THE POSTING: The grass roots and foundation of the political parties are its precinct committeepersons. They serve as the foot soldiers to the most fundamental political unit of government, the precinct. The precinct committeeperson helps shape party policy and participates in the selection process of candidates. A precinct committeeperson is elected to a two-year term in the even-year primary elections. Expectations of a precinct committeeperson: Represent the party’s voters at the county central committee convention to elect the county central chairman and its officers. The precinct committeeperson casts a total number of party votes, (weighted vote), as cast in the precinct at the recent primary election. Attend and become involved in the party’s Township meetings. Become a voter registrar and register all qualified constituents. Appoint and fill vacancies of election judges for the precinct polling place. Provide candidate and election information to the voters. Circulate petitions for candidates prior to the primary election. Become familiar with the elected officials and legislatures so the concerns of the voters can be passed on to them. If you are interested in becoming a precinct committeeperson you may contact your party’s township chair listed above.)

Money Magazine a) painted my education deductions as being improper; b) foisted all the negative government employee stereotypes on me and on my future wife, a former FBI employee, that it could; and c) hinted/implied/argued that I had been promoted too fast, and that therefore, I was extremely overpaid.)

ILLINOIS REVIEW
— IL GOP Leaders Rally Behind DeSantis as Trump Surges and Maintains an Impressive Double-Digit Lead Over FL Governor in Latest Polls (COMMENT: Leaders of the Illinois Republican Party (IRP), DuPage County Republican Central Committee (DCRCC), and Milton Township Republican Organization (MTRO)are supposed to stay out of Republican primaries, but of course, they have not. I should write a book about that. I would focus on how they have favored/disfavored, helped/harmed, and/or promoted/destroyed Republican primary candidates. I would focus on how they have blamed conservative Republican Precinct Committeemen like me the most when their candidates lose elections. I would focus on those past and present IRP, DCRCC, and MTRO leaders who have blamed their candidates’ losses the most a) on me since 2000; b) on my GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters since 2000; and c) on what I did as the Republican fundraiser for Wheaton Independence Day parades and fireworks 2005-2019, the TAPROOT Republicans of Illinois chairman 2005-2012, a Wheaton Chamber of Commerce Government Affairs Committee member 2003-2011, the MTRO webmaster 2008-2010 and 2000-2004, and an Illinois Center Right Coalition Steering Committee member 2003-2007.)

— FEBRUARY 13, 2023 FLASHBACK: March Illinois Republican Party (IRP) State Central Committee (SCC) Meeting Now Virtual: Is Don Tracy Afraid of the Grassroots or the Spread of COVID-19? (COMMENT: In his March 17, 2023 chairman’s memo, Tracy stated “The IRP is governed by the SCC which is in effect the Board of Directors for the IRP. Our 17 SCC Members (each individual representing a congressional district) were elected in the 2022 election primary and are all volunteers. This past week, we held our first SCC meeting in 2023.” In my March 6, 2023 GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletter, I asked “What is the date of the March 2023 IRP SCC meeting? If it will be in person, where and at what time will it be? If it will be by Zoom, will Illinois Republican Precinct Committeemen/Captains like me and others be allowed to watch/listen and/or to speak during the public comment period?” Even though I have been an elected Republican Precinct Committeeman since 2000 and the GOPUSA Illinois Editor since 2000, I never received answers to the aforesaid questions from anyone. Ever-increasingly, the IRP SCC dumps transparency, that is, dumps accountability.)

What if Democrat leaders in Illinois were like Republican leaders in Illinois? What if Democrat leaders in Illinois demonized, denigrated, and condemned liberal Democrats like Republican leaders in Illinois demonize, denigrate, and condemn conservative Republicans? What if Democrat leaders in Illinois demonized, denigrated, and condemned their liberal Democrat activists, precinct committeemen/captains, candidates, elected officials, and party leaders like Republican leaders in Illinois demonize, denigrate, and condemn their conservative Republican activists, precinct committeemen/captains, candidates, elected officials, and party leaders? I should write a book about that. I would focus on those Republican leaders in Illinois since 2000 who have taken the most/biggest adverse actions against conservative Republican activists, precinct committeemen/captains, candidates, elected officials, and party leaders. – Dave Diersen

— An age of agency awaits us – IAN ROWE
https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/restoring-america/faith-freedom-self-reliance/an-age-of-agency-awaits-us
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Two popular visions have risen to answer this question. I call them “blame the system” and “blame the victim” narratives. The “blame the system” mindset argues that impediments to young people achieving the American dream are primarily due to systems of oppression, which create institutional and systemic barriers around race, class, and gender. In this worldview, any undesirable outcome in a person’s life has nothing to do with their individual situation but rather is a result of oppressive forces rigged against them. . .While “blame the system” places the entire focus on society’s oppressive forces, the “blame the victim” mindset suggests that roadblocks to realizing the American dream are due to an individual’s bad choices or lack of effort. America isn’t the problem if you are unsuccessful; you are the problem. “Blame the victim” accuses young people of being the architects of their own shortcomings, and the exhortations that accompany this mindset are all too familiar: “Have fewer babies outside marriage, and you won’t live in poverty.” “Commit fewer crimes, and you won’t be abused by the criminal justice system.” They are familiar because they are true at a surface level. They encourage behavior we want to propagate and discourage behavior we want to lessen.)

DENVER POST
— Teens feel pressure of perfection post-pandemic isolation. Students face the stress to perform well academically and in extracurricular activities. – JESSICA SEAMAN (COMMENT: What motivated you to get a college degree? My father’s regretting not getting a college degree motived me. That motivated me a) to take college preparatory courses at Crete-Monee High School 1962-1966, b) to get a score of 24 on the ACT, c) to graduate in the upper 20% of my 1966 class, d) to get accepted by UIC, and e) to earn enough money to buy a new 1966 Pontiac Tempest Sprint in 1966 to commute to/from my parents’ home in Crete and classes at UIC. My outstanding father fought type 1 diabetes from childhood, was the first of his ancestors to earn a high school diploma, was discouraged by doctors from going to college because of his diabetes, and almost always worked second jobs to pay the family’s bills. Almost all the breadwinners on the 1200 block of Wood Street in Crete where we lived earned money more than he did. I remember when he owned a bottom of the line 1951 Plymouth straight-6 with a stick shift, our neighbor to the north owned a top of the line 1958 Buick V-8 with an automatic, and our neighbor to the south owned a top of the line 1957 Pontiac V-8 with an automatic. He bought a bottom of the line 1961 Chevrolet straight-6 in 1962 and a bottom of the line 1967 Chevrolet straight-6 in 1967. According to my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes, the only reason why I became a college student was to avoid the draft.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: Five of the six top Republican candidates for governor appeared at a Washington, Ill., forum last night to address a range of issues, including the economy and Second Amendment. Darren Bailey, Gary Rabine, Paul Schimpf, Jesse Sullivan, and Max Solomon all attended. The biggest applause came toward the end of the event when Bailey walked across the stage and pointed to an empty chair where Richard Irvin would have been seated. “I want to talk about this empty seat,” Bailey said, pausing for the audience to cheer for a while. Bailey then accused Irvin of “grossly” lying while on the campaign trail. Bailey said Irvin may talk about cutting taxes, “but he raised taxes in Aurora.” And Irvin’s running mate, Avery Bourne, once told Bailey to put on his mask while he was fighting the mask mandate in the General Assembly. “Friends, enough is enough,” Bailey said.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: For the following two decades, even as Britain and her American colonies grew apart, he hoped to find the terms that would prevent an irreparable breach. But a searing experience in London’s Cockpit after the Boston Tea Party convinced Franklin of the necessity of a separation from Great Britain, which would never view its colonial subjects as anything other than second-class citizens.)

https://dupagepolicyjournal.com/stories/621598562-at-wheaton-s-edison-school-black-eighth-graders-to-lecture-whites-on-black-hair-culture-importance-of-black-history-month
(FROM THE ARTICLE: A black-only student group at Wheaton’s Edison School has been conducting lectures for white students this week, instructing them on what words it is appropriate to use around blacks, why it is important that whites find Black History Month important and the particulars of “black hair culture.” An email to parents and students obtained by DuPage Policy Journal outlined the details of Edison’s school-sponsored “Panthers in Black” lecture series. “There are different endings such as ‘-er’ and ‘-a’ which have two different meanings,” one slide from the presentation reads. The presentation goes on to dictate how the word should be approached. “When it is used between African Americans, the definition of the word changes and is commonly used as a term of endearment such as “friend” or “buddy”. ONLY African Americans can use it in this context, not other races,” another slide reads. The Panthers in Black Club is closed to non-black students. “If there are any African American students who would like to join Panthers In Black (PIB), please contact your school counselor. PIB works towards raising awareness about Black history, culture, and racial injustice,” the slideshow reads at the end. The lecture took place without parent notice. The lecturer was delivered to sixth-graders on Monday, March 7, seventh-graders on Tuesday, March 8, and to the eighth grade on Wednesday, March 9. The series was announced by the school via email. “This week, a group of students from our Panthers in Black group is presenting a short slideshow during part of the ELA block. The presentation is called POV from PIB (Point of View from Panthers in Black). The presenters are 8th grade students who are Black and want to help their non-black peers learn how to avoid saying some of the offensive and hurtful things they have heard in our school,” the school said in an email. “Some of the topics include the history and importance of Black History Month, the history of the n-word and the importance of never saying it, Black hair culture and the importance of not touching people’s hair and more. “We truly want our school to be a place where all students feel seen, accepted, respected, and valued. We are so proud of these girls for having the courage to share these important lessons with their peers in the hopes of creating a more welcoming and inclusive environment in our school.” Edison School is part of CUSD 200 and has 664 students in 2021, 464 whites, 59 Hispanics, 53 Asians and 42 blacks, according to the Illinois State Board of Education.)

The precinct committeeperson helps shape party policy and participates in the selection process of candidates. A precinct committeeperson is elected to a two-year term in the even-year primary elections. Expectations of a precinct committeeperson: Represent the party’s voters at the county central committee convention to elect the county central chairman and its officers. The precinct committeeman casts a total number of party votes, (weighted vote), as cast in the precinct at the recent primary election. Attend and become involved in the party’s Township meetings. Become a voter registrar and register all qualified constituents. Appoint and fill vacancies of election judges for the precinct polling place. Provide candidate and election information to the voters. Circulate petitions for candidates prior to the primary election. Become familiar with the elected officials and legislatures so the concerns of the voters can be passed on to them)

— School-Approved Racism in Western Suburb of Chicago (Wheaton) – Laurie Higgins (COMMENT: This school is in my DuPage County Milton Township Precinct 9. Per Breakthrough Ideas: “The Edison Middle School Principal should be focusing on academics instead of these types of presentations. Only 42 percent of the students perform at grade level in English Language Arts and only 33 percent perform at grade level in Math. Black student achievement is one-third White student achievement according to 2019 data.

https://illinoisfamily.org/education/school-approved-racism-in-western-suburb-of-chicago/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: It appears the racism identified as “anti-racism” and being endorsed all across America is bearing rotten fruit at ever younger ages and in ever more perverse ways. Just last week, administrators at Edison Middle School in Wheaton, Illinois allowed student members of the blacks-only “Panthers in Black” school club to lecture peers on the intricacies of using various forms of the “n”-word. Students learned who is permitted to use the “n”-word and which “n”-word suffix is appropriate in what context. Parents of students forced to listen to this non-voluntary lecture were not notified ahead of time or asked to sign a permission slip. Eighteen slides were included in the lecture addressing topics like the importance of Black History Month. This slide was notable for its vagueness. The Panthers in Black advocate for “recognizing” and “promoting” appreciation of African American “achievement, culture, heritage, sacrifices, and accomplishments, including past and current events.” Several things are unclear.)

WASHINGTON EXAMINER
— Despite what most Democrats say, the US is worth fighting for (COMMENT: Which countries do Democrats want to invade and to conquer the United States?

They would be countries that would get rid of those who are law enforcement officers, Trump supporters, conservative, patriotic, Republican, American, White, male, older, heterosexual, married, non-poor, gun owners, Christian, Protestant, Italian American, German American, and/or those whose ancestors have been in America for a long time.)

— First Amendment Scholars Want to See the Media Lose These Cases. Some legal experts say it is time to draw a sharp line between protected speech and harmful disinformation. – Jeremy Peters (COMMENT: Since 2000, my critics/opponents have accused me of promoting false claims and harmful disinformation with my GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters. I should sue my critics/opponents. I would focus on those who have done the most a) to stop me from sending out the newsletters and b) to stop everyone from reading the newsletters. I would focus on those who a) stopped me from raising funds from DuPage County Republicans so that DuPage County Republicans could help sponsor Wheaton’s 2021 Independence Day parade and fireworks, b) gerrymandered my precinct in 2015, c) ended my TAPROOT Republicans of Illinois chairmanship in 2012, d) ended my Wheaton Chamber of Commerce Government Affairs Committee membership in 2011, e) ended my Milton Township Republican Organization (MTRO) webmaster service in 2010 and 2004, f) ended my Illinois Center Right Coalition (ICRC) Steering Committee membership in 2007, g) tried to get ICRC to censure me for my GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters in 2006, h) ended my American Association of Political Consultants Midwest Chapter board membership in 2004, and i) viciously ended my bid to serve as MTRO Treasurer in 2004.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: The suits, which are being argued in several state and federal courts, accuse Project Veritas, Fox News, The Gateway Pundit, One America News and others of intentionally promoting and profiting from false claims of voter fraud during the 2020 election, and of smearing innocent civil servants and businesses in the process. If the outlets prevail, these experts say, the results will call into question more than a half-century of precedent that created a clear legal framework for establishing when news organizations can be held liable for publishing something that’s not true.)
WASHINGTON POST
— If You Already Hate Your New Job, It’s Fine to Quit – Kathryn Minshew (COMMENT: I never hated my jobs, but my Democrat superiors wanted me to. I should write a book about adverse actions that my Democrat superiors in the federal government took against me and how I responded. After my Democrat GAO superiors forced me to retire in 1997 when I was 49 years old, my attorney Walter T. Charlton filed a lawsuit against them in 1998.

After they forced me to take a $20,901 (21%) pay cut in today’s dollars to transfer from IRS to GAO in 1980, I a) became a licensed CPA in 1981, b) passed the Certified Internal Auditor examination on my first attempt in 1981, and c) completed the requirements for a master’s degree in accounting from DePaul in 1980. After my Democrat IRS superiors a) made it clear that IRS would never promote me again, b) disallowed my education deductions in 1978, c) got rid of my mentor in 1975 who had promoted me in 1974, 1972, and 1972, and d) disallowed my partial day per diem claims in 1974, I earned an MBA from Loyola in 1976, started taking graduate accounting courses at DePaul in 1976, and passed the CPA examination on my first attempt in 1979. After my Democrat Firestone Stores boss made it clear that he disapproved of my demographics, I accepted a job offer from Oldsmobile. After my Democrat Post Office superiors a) forced me to resign in 1969 and b) disallowed my sick leave requests in 1969 and 1968, I earned a bachelor’s degree in management from NIU in 1970.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: Perhaps you have read the book “1984” by George Orwell and published in 1949. In the totalitarian superstate Oceania, the government purposely breaks up families in order for the government to keep its power. The family structure needs to be non-existent so that the people cannot unite or feel loved. Here’s another interesting quote: “The planned destruction of the family was part of the communist agenda from its inception by Karl Marx and Frederic Engels. It became government policy in the USSR in about 1917. It was so successful in the USSR that it threatened to destroy society in the USSR. Curiously, while in the 1940s the USSR took steps to repair the damages its family-hostile policies had caused, American communists imported the Soviet agenda for the planned destruction of the family into the USA.” (Statement of Bill Wood, July 17, 2003, before the U.S. Congress Committee on Ways and Means)

— Immersive experiences draw audience in for dialogue about diversity, equity and inclusion. Student and faculty actors bring stories of discrimination to life — and then it’s the audience’s turn to step up. – Grayson Schmidt (COMMENT: My critics/opponents a) reject the equal opportunity (no race or gender based preference giving) plank in the Republican Party platform, b) have personally benefited or want to benefit from Affirmative Action (AA), Diversity, Equity, or Inclusion, c) have children and/or grandchildren who have benefited or who might benefit from AA, Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion, an/or d) have not had to pay the price of AA, Diversity, Equity, or Inclusion.
