CBS2

Hate-filled conservative-hating conservative-haters promote the Democrat, Libertarian, and Green party platforms which promote poverty and crime. Those platforms promote a) dependency on government and charity, b) sexualization and LGBTQ, c) abortion, d) mass/illegal immigration, e) diminishment of Second Amendment rights, f) booze, gambling, pot, and other vices, and g) Affirmative Action, Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, CRT, 1619, BLM, reparations, and wokeness/wokeism, that is, political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, and age discrimination.

OUR QUAD CITIES
— Democrats say “Illinois considers letting non-citizens become police officers.” If there had been as many non-citizens when I was young as there are now, a) S.S. Kresge would have hired a non-citizen instead of me in 1964 to wash dishes, b) the Post Office would have hired a non-citizen instead of me in 1966 to deliver mail, c) IRS would have hired a non-citizen instead of me in 1971 to collect delinquent taxes, and d) GAO would have hired anon-citizen instead of me in 1980 to audit federal agencies. My critics/opponents cannot similarly say that non-citizens would have been hired instead of them because they did not have to take “bad jobs” because their parents had far more money than my parents had. I should write a book about my critics/opponents.

— If DeSantis is so bad, why did Trump endorse him twice? – Christopher Tremoglie (COMMENT: How bad am I? I should ask my critics/opponents: “If I am so bad, why did Roskam and Hultgren endorse me for Republican Precinct Committeeman in 2000?” Of course, my critics/opponents would say that Roskam and Hultgren strongly regret their endorsing me. My critics/opponents would stress the many adverse actions taken against me during and after Roskam’s and Hultgren’s terms in office including: a) rudely ending my bid to serve as the Milton Township Republican Organization (MTRO) Treasurer in 2004, b) rudely ending my service as MTRO webmaster in 2004 and 2010, c) almost getting the Illinois Center Right Coalition (ICRC) to censure me for my GOPUSA LLINOIS newsletters in 2006, d) rudely ending my service as an ICRC Steering Committee member in 2007, e) rudely ending my service as a Wheaton Chamber of Commerce Government Affairs Committee member in 2011, f) rudely ending my service as the TAPROOT Republicans of Illinois chairman in 2012, g) rudely gerrymandering my precinct in 2015, h) rudely ending my bid to be appointed to fill the Wheaton City Council West District vacancy in 2019, i) rudely ending my service as the Republican fundraiser for Wheaton Independence Day parades and fireworks in 2021, and j) rudely almost stopping me from attending the DeSantis event in Elmhurst as the GOPUSA Illinois reporter on February 20, 2023. They would stress a) that I worked for IRS for almost 9 years, the last 5 1/2 years of which at the GS-12 Step 1-5 Levels, currently $92,279-$104,583/year, b) that I worked for GAO for almost 18 years, the last 11 years of which at the GS-13 Step 1-10 Levels, currently $109,732-$142,650/year, c) that I worked for GAO on audits of IRS for 3 years and on audits of federal financial industry regulators for more than 8 years, d) that GAO works for Congress, and e) that neither Roskam nor Hultgren ever drew on my IRS or GAO work experience. My critics/opponents would hint/imply/argue/shout that Roskam and Hultgren not only withdrew their endorsement of me in 2002 when I supported Pat O’Malley instead of Jim Ryan in the 2002 Illinois gubernatorial primary, but that ever since then, they have called for MTRO, ICRC, Wheaton Chamber of Commerce, TAPROOT, Wheaton, etc. to get rid of me.)

https://www.journal-topics.com/articles/illinois-house-oks-bill-to-prohibit-banning-of-books-in-libraries-senate-next/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The Illinois House passed a bill last Wednesday that would prohibit libraries from banning books or other material because of partisan or doctrinal pressure, prompting strong opposition from Republicans who called it an assault on local control. . .Some Republicans, however, argued that public libraries are governed by locally elected boards, and that those boards should have the authority to decide how best to serve their communities. “I find this a complete assault on local control,” said Rep. Martin McLaughlin (R-Barrington Hills). These people volunteer as nonpartisan elected local officials, and for the state to tell a local library board, ‘listen to the professionals; follow the professionals’ – I don’t understand why we have local elections anymore if a bill like this passes.” The bill passed the House 69-39 with all of the no votes coming from Republicans. Three Democrats and one Republican were recorded as present but not voting. The bill next goes to the Senate for consideration.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: The Democratic Party of Illinois is spending $300,000 on mailers and online campaigns for local school and library board races early next month. Democrats said in a news release they’ve identified dozens of candidates they recommend and oppose while launching a website DefendOurSchoolsIL.com. Last week, Gov. J.B. Pritzker explained why his attention is on local school board races. “There are lots of candidates who are running, Republicans or Democrats, they’re not listed on the ballots as such. What we’re trying to do is to raise awareness about the extremists that are running,” Pritzker said at an unrelated event last week.)

https://www.nprillinois.org/2023-03-24/what-a-house-gop-messaging-bill-could-spell-for-2024-culture-war-campaign
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The bill, introduced by Louisiana Rep. Julia Letlow, requires schools to notify parents that they have the right to review the curriculum and school budget, inspect books and other library materials, and receive information about any violent activity in the school. The bill would also prohibit schools from selling student information. Elementary schools or schools housing grades 5-8 would be required to obtain parental consent before changing a student’s pronouns or preferred name or allowing a student to change their sex-based accommodations, like locker rooms or bathrooms.)
— Democrats say “President Biden’s nominee to head the FAA has withdrawn after Republican criticism.” I should write a book about those who have wasted my IRS work experience the most. I worked for IRS for almost 9 years, the last 5 1/2 years of which at the GS-12 Step 1-5 Levels, currently $92,279-$104,583/year. GAO audits IRS. I worked for GAO on audits of IRS for 3 years at the GS-13 Step 1-3 Levels, currently $109,732-$117,047/year.

CHICAGO CRUSADER
— Democrats say “Advocates push for tax credit aimed at increasing affordable housing.” In 1971, HUD guaranteed $30 million in loans to create University Park. If I sought a government office or a political office, my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes would hint/imply/argue/shout that I unethically bought a new town home in University Park in 1972 ( https://www.redfin.com/IL/University-Park/774-Sunset-Ct-60484/unit-5/home/23344604 ) that HUD had earmarked for Blacks.)
https://chicagocrusader.com/advocates-push-for-tax-credit-aimed-at-increasing-affordable-housing/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Lawmakers are considering bills that would create a new tax credit for affordable housing, referred to as the “Build Illinois Homes Tax Credit.” The legislation, contained in the identical House Bill 2044 and Senate Bill 1737, would mirror a federal program administered by the Illinois Housing Development Authority and Chicago Department of Housing which helps finance affordable housing across Illinois.

— Could we get the ‘banned books’ people to start caring about banned books? – Timothy P. Carney
https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/opinion/could-we-get-banned-books-people-care-banned-books
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Did you know that the 1619 Project is a banned book? This might surprise you, given that it has sold hundreds of thousands of copies, has a Hulu original series, and that governments everywhere are paying the author tens of thousands of dollars to speak about the book. Did you know that The Handmaid’s Tale is also banned? Again, this could be a confusing fact for anyone paying any attention to American media and elite culture over the past seven years. But the 1619 Project and The Handmaid’s Tale are two of the books pictured in this NPR story on banned books or the “banned book” websites to which it links. Of course, by no ordinary understanding of the word “banned” are these books banned, as evidenced that every book mentioned herein is available at every prestige bookstore, every chain bookstore, and Amazon. What’s going on is that activists have decided to change the meaning of “banned books” to include any book that has been removed from a middle school curriculum or is not stocked in a high school library. It’s normal that activists would abuse language in order to make their own issue seem more important. It’s unfortunate that this abuse of language is at the hands of people who claim to care about literacy, given that precision in language is a way in which literature can liberate and inform. It’s also lamentable that so much of the news media credulously adopts the activists’ dishonest language. NPR uncritically repeats the word “ban” more than 50 times in this story about books that obviously everyone can buy, get for free, and take out from public libraries.)

NEW YORK TIMES
— Democrats say “What It’s Like to Become a Caregiver to Your Parents in Your 20s.” My mother stayed home and raised my brother and I. She never attended high school. My father died suddenly in 1969 when he was 47 and I was 21-year-old NIU student. Potential employers were not interested in hiring me because they viewed me as being draft-bait and my demographics were terrible. In 1970, after a) earning a bachelor’s degree in management from NIU, b) getting a job working for the Firestone Store in Chicago Heights, a job that did not really require a college degree, c) moving back in with my mother and brother in Crete, and d) starting to help support them financially, I applied for a financial hardship draft deferment. Before that application was approved in 1971, a) Oldsmobile offered me a job which I accepted, b) my Firestone Store boss rudely fired me because I had accepted that job offer, and c) Oldsmobile withdrew that job offer saying that it had just agreed to stop hiring Whites to settle an EEOC complaint. Because of the aforesaid, I accepted a job offer from IRS to be a GS-7 (currently $52,002/year) Revenue Officer. I got rehired by Firestone to work part-time pumping gasoline and I continued to live with my mother and brother and to help support them financially until my mother got a better paying job in 1972. In September of 1972, I bought a new town home in University Park.)

I would focus on the aforesaid who have also demonized, denigrated, and condemned my hometown of Crete when I lived there 1948-1972 as being full of racist, sexist, bigoted Missouri Synod Lutheran German Americans. Better yet, I should sue my critics/opponents.)

FEDERALIST
— Indiana Lawsuit Challenges Parties’ Right To Keep Candidates Off The Ballot – OLIVIA HAJICEK (COMMENT: Political parties exist to help elect candidates who can and will defend and advance their platform. The Republican Party platform is conservative. The Illinois Republican Party, DuPage County Republican Central Committee, and Milton Township Republican Organization should officially have the power to stop candidates from running as Republicans in Illinois, in DuPage County, and in Milton Township. But of course, if the aforesaid organizations officially had that power, their Democrat plant, Libertarian plant, Green plant, Independent plant, and RINO leaders would officially use that power to stop candidates from running as Republicans who support the following planks in the Republican Party platform: a) individual responsibility, b) traditional marriage/family, c) right to life, immigration, Second Amendment, illegal drugs, and/or equal opportunity (no race or gender based preference giving). Because I support the aforesaid planks, if I had tried to run for any government office in Illinois, DuPage County, or Milton Township, Democrat plant, Libertarian plant, Green plant, Independent plant, and RINO leaders of the aforesaid organizations would have stopped if they had the power to do so. Just look at how they attacked me when sought to be appointed to fill the Wheaton City Council West District vacancy in 2019.)

Since 2015, ever-increasingly, in DuPage County, in Milton Township, and in Wheaton, they demonize, denigrate, and condemn me as being the leading Trump supporter in DuPage County, Milton Township, and Wheaton.

But a) I have never donated any money to Trump, b) I have never held any leadership position in any of Trump campaign, and c) I have never organized any events for Trump. I have never done anything more to help elect Trump or to reelect Trump than Republican Precinct Committeemen are required to do. In my precinct, a) I delivered Trump campaign literature and b) after he won the 2016 and 2020 primaries, I sought yard sign locations for his campaigns.

Asa Hutchinson, potential presidential candidate, woos Orange County Republicans – SEEMA MEHTA (COMMENT: Which potential Republican presidential candidates have wooed Republican voters in your county or want to woo them?

I should write a book about why potential Republican presidential candidates might or might not try to woo Republican voters in DuPage County. I would focus on the leaders of the DuPage County Republican Central Committee and the leaders of each of the county’s nine Republican township party organizations. I would focus on how the aforesaid have treated me and have treated my GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters. I would focus on the adverse actions that they have taken against me.

(FROM THE ARTICLE: Former President Donald Trump unveiled his new plan Tuesday to “dismantle the deep state” by firing “rogue” bureaucrats and career politicians, according to a new policy agenda video. Trump released a list of ten items that indicate how he plans to “clean out the deep state,” starting with re-instating an executive order that would give the president the authority to fire bureaucrats, according to the video posted on Rumble. The former president’s plan would dismantle the “Washington Swamp,” target corruption and ensure that federal bureaucrats and politicians are held accountable. “The departments and agencies that have been weaponized will be completely overhauled so that faceless bureaucrats will never again be able to target and persecute conservatives, Christians, or the left’s political enemies, which they’re doing now at a level that nobody can believe even possible,” Trump said in the video.)

REUTERS
— Democrats say “A group of seven U.S. senators on Tuesday proposed legislation to raise the mandatory commercial pilot retirement age to 67 from 65, in a bid to address airline industry staffing issues.” If you are a federal employee who is Republican, White, male, and/or non-veteran and you did not make it into Senior Executive Service, currently $183,500/year, by age 40, your Democrat superiors will force you to retire as soon as you are eligible. I was eligible to take early retirement in 1993 when I was 45 years old. My Democrat GAO superiors succeeded in forcing me to take their early retirement “offer” in 1997 when I was 49. I was not eligible to take regular retirement until 2003 when I would have been 55. My $63,144/year Civil Service Retirement System pension is dramatically less because of that. It is only 44% of what my GAO salary was in 1997 in today’s dollars. It is less than what my IRS salary was in 1972 in today’s dollars.

ENTREPRENEUR
— Why Personal Responsibility Is Key to Changing Your Life – DANIEL MANGENA (COMMENT: To what extent did you take personal responsibility for getting you bachelor’s degree? I took great personal responsibility because my outstanding parents were not in a good position to pay for my college expenses. Neither of them attended college. My father was only the first of my ancestors to earn a high school diploma. He almost always worked second jobs to pay the family’s bills. My mother never attended high school. She stayed home and raised my brother and me. Further, my scholarship possibilities were extremely bleak. I only just barely made into the upper 20% of my Crete-Monee Hight School class, I could not run, my eyesight could not be corrected to 20.20, I had partial red/green color blindness, and my ACT score was only 24. That is why when I was 16 in 1964, a) I got a job washing dishes for the minimum wage in the basement of the S.S. Kresge in Chicago Heights, b) I bought a 1958 Chevrolet Bel Air to get to/from my parents’ home in Crete, high school, and my dishwashing job; c) I saved all of my salary that I could. That enabled me to buy a new 1966 Pontiac Tempest Sprint in May of 1966 that I used to get to/from my parents’ home and a) jobs during the summer of 1966 cleaning golf shoes in Flossmoor and chipping slag and pumping gasoline in Chicago Heights, b) taking classes at UIC starting in September of 1966, and c) delivering mail part-time in Park Forest starting in November of 1966.)

The Republican Party is conservative. My critics/opponents in the Illinois Republican Party (IRP), DuPage County Republican Central Committee (DCRCC), and Milton Township Republican Organization (MTRO) want Democrat Lite. They want the IRP to officially dump the individual responsibility, traditional marriage/family, right to life, immigration, Second Amendment, illegal drugs, and equal opportunity (no race or gender based preference giving) planks in the Republican Party platform. They want the IRP, DCRCC, and MTRO to officially dump conservatives, that is, to officially dump platform Republicans, that is, to officially dump the base of the Republican Party, that is, to officially destroy the IRP, DCRCC, and MTRO. – Dave Diersen

DeSantis responded by saying he faces “defamatory stuff every single day” and that he chooses to spend his time “delivering results for the people of Florida and fighting against Joe Biden,” not “trying to smear other Republicans.”)

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.)

I should write a book about what Money Magazine hinted, implied, argued, if not stated in its 4-page February 1978 article about me to harm me, including a) that I was an IRS employee who had deducted his education expenses; b) that I was conservative, Republican, draft-avoider, gun-owner, Corvette owner, Lutheran, and German American; and c) that my ancestors had been in America since 1844 and that I had lived in Crete 1948-1972. 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.)

(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.)

Because of my performance, IRS promoted me to GS-12 (currently $92,279/year). But then, my Democrat IRS superiors disallowed my travel vouchers (SEE: https://www.gao.gov/products/b-180010.11 ) and got rid of the IRS manager who had a) promoted me to GS-9 (currently $63,633) in 1972, b) promoted me to GS-11 in 1973, c) got me the CentiPhone Manager assignment, and d) promoted me to GS-12 in 1974.)

24/7 WALL STREET
— How Much Members of the US Military Are Paid at Every Pay Grade – Maria Wood (COMMENT: DeSantis made the Navy rank of Lieutenant Commander when he was 28 in 2006. The equivalent civilian GS grade is 12. I made GS-12 in 1974 (currently $92,279/year) when I was a 25-year-old IRS Revenue Officer. I made GS-13 (currently $109,732/year) in 1986 when I was a 38-year-old GAO Analyst. The equivalent Navy rank is Commander. (SEE: https://www.history.navy.mil/research/library/online-reading-room/title-list-alphabetically/c/comparison-of-military-and-civilian-equivalent-grades.html ) My ending GAO salary was $142,650/year (GS-13 Step 10) in today’s dollars. According to my critics/opponents, federal employees are failures if they do not make GS-13 by age 25, GS-14 by age 30, GS-15 (currently $129,671/year) by age 35, and Senior Executive Service (currently $183,500/year) by age 40. Extremely few federal employees make the aforesaid promotion deadlines. How soon, if not already, will DeSantis’ critics/opponents paint his military career as being a failure, and therefore, that he is a failure? Since 1973 when I turned 25 years old, because I failed to make GS-13, my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes have demonized me, denigrated me, and condemned me as being a failure. Further, according to them, IRS should not have promoted me to GS-9 in 1972, to GS-11 in 1973, or to GS-12 in 1974 and GAO should not have promoted me to GS-13 in 1986.)

GOPUSA ILLINOIS
— Are you a registered Republican voter in DuPage County? If so, who is your Republican Precinct Committeeman? Is he/she elected or an appointed live-in-precinct (LIP) Committeeman? You should ask him/her if the proposed DuPage County Election Division precinct map puts them in the same precinct with one or more other Republican elected or LIP Precinct Committeeman.

By now, elected and LIP DuPage County Republican Precinct Committeemen should have received the proposed precinct map for their township. I have received the proposed Milton Township precinct map. It combines the township’s 130 current precincts into 83 new precincts. As I anticipated, it draws me into the same precinct with Ives like what happened in 2015.

For the new proposed Precinct 9, the north border remains Roosevelt Road, the west border remains the Illinois Prairie Path, the south border is Fairway Lane, and the east border is Naperville Road. All of the expansion comes out of Ives’ Precinct 65.

Of course, one could argue that when two elected or LIP committeemen are drawn into the same precinct, the reason is to get rid of one of them.

My current thinking is that if Ives runs, the precinct is hers; but if she does not run, I will run again.

My current thinking is to try to get the lines for my precinct to be redrawn so that all the expansion is to the west. But I am not optimistic. Things have only gotten worse for me since 2015. Because of that, I do not anticipate that anyone will support my request that the proposed lines for my precinct be redrawn so that all expansion is to the west.

In the 2015 redrawing, Ives was subsequently carved out so we did not have to run against each other, but I lost about 250 voters on the west side of the Prairie Path and I gained about 250 voters east of Warrenville Road in Ives’ old precinct. Since at least 1999 and through 2015, my precinct lines were unchanged and the precinct had about 500 registered voters. But in 2015, my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes in the Milton Township Republican Organization and the DuPage County Republican Central Committee falsely told me that precinct border changes that year would only impact precincts that had more than 1,000 registered voters, and that merely, those precincts would be split.

On Tuesday, the DuPage County Finance Committee received a “Draft DuPage County Precinct Map.” To meet the new 1,200 registered voters per precinct state requirement, many committeemen will have to be drawn into a new precinct with each other. Further, larger precincts necessarily mean that more precincts will contain more government districts. My current precinct and the proposed precinct outrageously include voters in three (west, east, and south) of Wheaton’s four districts. If my precinct was extended to the west, that could have been avoided.

I have asked the DuPage County Election Division to provide me with a detailed version of the Milton Township portion of its proposed precinct map. I have asked that it show where the Republican elected and LIP committeemen live. I am told that an attorney who will verify that the maps comply with state law has not yet been selected.

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. – Dave Diersen

— Democrats call DeSantis’ SVB diversity claim ridiculous. Ever-increasingly, businesses put promoting the Democrat, Libertarian, and Green party platforms ahead of making a profit. Ever-increasingly, businesses dump their employees and dump their customers who are citizens of America, heterosexual, conservative, Republican, White, male, older, Christian, Protestant, Italian American, German American, and/or those whose ancestors have been in America for a long time. Ever-increasingly, the following dump those who are the aforesaid: a) Republican activists, candidates, elected officials, party leaders, major donors, etc., b) conservative leaders, and c) religious leaders.

— Democrats say “DeSantis was invited to Ukraine to gain a ‘deeper understanding’ of the war after the Florida governor called Russia’s full-scale invasion a territorial dispute.” During and after the Viet Nam War, my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes have viciously demonized me, viciously denigrated me, and viciously condemned me as being a disgusting hypocrite and a disgusting coward because I am a healthy conservative Republican who avoided the draft. I should write a book about that. I would focus on my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes who have viciously demonized me, viciously denigrated me, and viciously condemned me the most. They stress that I knew that because of my health problems (unable to run, eye sight could not be corrected to 20/20, and partial red/green colorblindness), if I had not avoided the draft, if I had enlisted, I would not have been sent into combat.

Everyone who is paid to write about, publish, distribute, etc. government and/or political news and/or commentary should be required to fully disclose the sources and amounts of their income. I am not paid to write about, publish, distribute, etc. government or political news or commentary. No one calls my tunes. All my income comes from my Civil Service Retirement System pension, my Social Security, and my retirement savings. Again, he who pays the piper calls the tunes. Ever-increasingly, the mainstream media is vehemently anti-conservative, anti-Republican, anti-American, anti-White, anti-male, anti-older people, anti-heterosexual, anti-those in traditional marriages, anti-rich people, anti-home owners, anti-gun owners, anti-Christian, anti-Protestant, anti-Italian American, anti-Germans American, and/or anti-those whose ancestors have been in America for a long time. Ever-increasingly, the mainstream media promotes liberalism, socialism, and communism, that is, the Democrat, Libertarian, and Green party platforms, LGBTQ, that is, the destruction of traditional marriage and family, CRT, 1619, BLM, reparations, and wokeness/wokeism, that is, Affirmative Action, Diversity, Equity, and inclusion, that is, patronage, political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, age discrimination, religious discrimination, national origin discrimination, and even worse things.

NBC PALM SPRINGS
— Democrats say that “DeSantis, who blames diversity initiatives for Silicon Valley Bank’s downfall, pushed for rollback of bank regulations.” GAO works for Congress. During the last 8 years that I worked for GAO, I worked on audits of federal financial industry regulators. In today’s dollars, my salary increased from $120,705/year to $142,650/year. I earned a master’s degree in financial markets and trading from IIT during that time. Republican U.S. Senators and Republican U.S. Representatives in Illinois, including Hastert, and candidates for those offices have never sought my input on anything to do with federal financial industry regulators. I should write a book about that.

— Democrats say “Trump-aligned super PAC calls for Florida ethics investigation into DeSantis political activity.” In 1971, I was one of the last Republicans that IRS hired. In 1974, my Democrat IRS superiors, supervisors, coworkers, and subordinates successfully called for IRS to disallow my travel vouchers. In 1978, they and Money Magazine successfully called for IRS to disallow my education deductions. I should write a book about that.

FOX DC
— Democrats say “The U.S. Air Force this month launched an effort to hire a handful of senior-level diversity, equity and inclusion managers and is hoping to place these officials in posts across the country, from Washington, D.C., to Alaska. Each post pays at least $82,000 per year, and the top position at the Pentagon could pay more than $180,000 per year.’ My Democrat GAO superiors forced me to take a $21,863/year (21%) pay cut in today’s dollars to transfer from IRS to GAO. They would not have done that if I had been a Democrat, minority, female, and/or veteran.

I had been promoted to GS-13 in 1986. They gave the White male non-veteran GS-13 employees bad job assignments, unfair performance expectations, and unfair performance appraisals and always ranked them in the lower half for pay-for-performance.)

I would focus on those candidates who blame me and who blame my GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters the most a) for the nastiness, b) for their defeats, and/or c) for their not winning by greater margins. I would focus on those candidates who have taken the most/biggest adverse actions against me.

— Democrats say “It’s Equal Pay Day. The gender pay gap has hardly budged in 20 years.” and ask “What gives?” (COMMENT: If I had not been denied my 7th Amendment rights in Diersen v. GAO, I would have presented a jury with many examples in which my Democrat GAO superiors consistently gave me smaller pay increases than they gave my Democrat coworkers who were female and/or minority and a) who had less job-related work experience than I had, b) who had less job-related education than I had, and/or c) who had fewer job-related professional certifications and licenses than I had. They always ranked me in the lower half of my coworkers for pay-for-performance purposes.)

— Ever-increasingly, Democrats blame Republicans for all the problems that minorities and women have had, are having, and will have.

GOPUSA ILLINOIS
— DuPage County Republican Precinct Committeemen want to know which of their fellow committeemen they will be draw into the same new precinct with. I fully expect to again to be drawn into the same precinct with Jeanne Ives like I was in 2015. That year, I lost about 250 voters on the west side of the Prairie Path and I gained about 250 voters east of Warrenville Road in Ives’ old precinct. Yesterday, the DuPage County Finance Committee was scheduled to receive a “Draft DuPage County Precinct Map.” To meet the new 1,200 registered voters per precinct state requirement, many committeemen will have to be drawn into a new precinct with each other. Further, larger precincts necessarily mean that more precincts will contain more government districts. My current precinct outrageously includes voters in three (west, east, and south) of Wheaton’s four districts. I have asked the DuPage County Election Division to provide me with a detailed version of the Milton Township portion of the draft map. I have asked that it show where the Republican elected and appointed live-in-precinct (LIP) committeemen live. I have yet to be advised which District 4 County Board member has been selected to be the point of contact for the remapping process. I have yet to be advised who the attorney is who will verify that the maps comply with state law. 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. Since at least 1999, my precinct lines had been unchanged and the precinct had about 500 registered voters. But in 2015, my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes in the Milton Township Republican Organization and the DuPage County Republican Central Committee falsely told me that precinct border changes that year iwould only impact precincts that had more than 1,000 registered voters and that merely, those precincts would split. – Dave Diersen
