— Democrats crow that “In Chicago visit, Jill Biden calls union workers backbone of this country.” I was a union member while I worked for the Post Office 1966-1969 and for IRS 1971-1980. While I was a union member, my salary increased from $18.05/hour to $104,583/year in today’s dollars. My critics/opponents are vehemently anti-union. Since 1966, when I was 18 years old, they have viciously demonized me, viciously denigrated me, and viciously condemned me as being grossly overpaid. In Money Magazine’s February 1978 4-page article on me, it viciously demonized me, denigrated me, and condemned me as being overpaid. In my defense, a) I earned a bachelor’s degree in management from NIU in 1970, b) I earned an MBA from Loyola in 1976, c) I passed the CPA examination on my first attempt in 1979, d) earned a master’s degree in accounting from DePaul in 1980, e) I passed the Certified Internal Auditor examination on my first attempt in 1981, and f) I became a licensed CPA in 1981. Since 1980, my critics/opponents have stressed that my Democrat GAO superiors forced me to suffer a $21,863/year (21%) pay cut in today’s dollars to transfer from IRS to GAO in 1980. But my Democrat GAO superiors would not have done that if I had been a Democrat, minority, females, and/or veteran.)

— Democrats acknowledge that “GOP attorneys general warn law firms against using race-based hiring practices.” Democrats and RINOs ever-increasingly make it clear that they reject the Supreme Court Affirmative Action (AA) decision. While I worked for the federal government 1966-1969 and 1971-1997, because I complained about political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, and age discrimination, my Democrat superiors used AA, Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion to waste my career and to get rid of me.

MCHENRY COUNTY BLOG
— Illinois Presidential Poll (COMMENT: As a Republican Precinct Committeeman, for general elections, I am obligated to and I have always supported those candidates who won Republican primary elections. However, I am ever-increasingly reluctant to support candidates in Republican primary elections. Far too many of them and their political consultants, pollsters, fundraisers, major donors, campaign managers, campaign staff members, campaign volunteers, and supporters blame me and blame my GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters for their defeats.)
https://mchenrycountyblog.com/2023/08/30/illinois-presidential-poll/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: 53% of Republicans support Donald Trump. . .The poll drilled down a level further, asking Republicans and Democrats who they would support if Trump and Biden were not in the running. For Republicans, 26% would nominate Ron DeSantis, followed by Vivek Ramaswamy (16%), Mike Pence (10%) and Nikki Haley (10%).)

— These are the salaries single people need to survive in every state – Adriana Diaz (COMMENT: The salary is $63,930 for Illinois. I got married in 1978. In today’s dollars, while I was single and working for IRS 1971-1978, my salary increased from $52,022 in 1971 when I was 22 to $63,633 in 1972, to $76,990 in 1973, to $92,279 in 1974, and to $101,507 in 1978. I earned a bachelor’s degree in management from NIU in 1970 and an MBA from Loyola in 1976. The aforesaid salaries enabled me a) to buy a new 1972 Corvette in 1971, b) to pay for tuition and books for graduate business courses at Loyola 1972-1976, c) to buy a new town home in University Park in 1972, d) to buy a new Dodge Dart in 1973, e) to buy a studio condo in the Loop in 1974, f) to pay for tuition and books for graduate accounting courses at DePaul 1976-1978, and g) to buy a one bedroom condo in the Loop in 1976. I still own that 1972 Corvette and the furniture that I bought in 1972, 1974, and 1976 is either in the finished basement of our Wheaton home or in our Iron Gate Motor Condo in Naperville.)

CHRISTIAN POST
— Orland Park Stephen Pastor indicted with Trump in Georgia released on bail with help of conservative group – Ryan Foley
https://www.christianpost.com/news/pastor-indicted-with-trump-in-georgia-released-on-bail.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Lee’s gratitude on Sunday likely stems from his inclusion on the Living Word prayer list for Aug. 27, which calls for “prayers of guidance and blessing” for the Lee family “as they work for their current struggles, and a prayer of thanksgiving for support.” In an appearance on “Diamond & Silk: The Podcast” Thursday, Lee’s attorney, David Shestokas, told the conservative influencer known as Silk that his client was due to report to jail the following day. He noted that if convicted, Lee faces a mandatory minimum of five years in prison. After detailing how Fulton County had set Lee’s bond at $75,000, with the defendant expected to pay 10% upfront, Shestokas reported that the conservative advocacy organization Illinois Family Institute set up a defense fund for Lee that had raised almost $4,000. Silk, whose name is Herneitha Richardson, offered to “make a contribution and pay that $3,500,” instructing Shestokas to tell his client “don’t worry” because “Diamond and Silk: Chit Chat Live is going to pay that $3,500 that he needs.” “Once he [pays] that and if he’s found not guilty, will he get that money back?” Silk asked. After Shestokas responded in the affirmative, Silk urged Lee to donate the $3,500 to his church if/when he is found not guilty. The Illinois Family Institute’s efforts to raise money for Lee’s legal defense continue as the organization partners with a honey company called MakeHoneyGreatAgain.com, which has committed to donating “a significant portion of the proceeds from their honey sales” to Lee’s defense. In his conversation with Silk, Shestokas said Lee served as a chaplain to the New York Police Department and New York firefighters after 9/11. He also ministered to Hurricanes Katrina and Irma victims, the 2017 mass shooting in Las Vegas, and the 1999 mass shooting at Columbine High School in Littleton, Colorado.)

In 2003 I served as a) the GOPUSA Illinois Editor, b) the TAPROOT Republicans of Illinois Vice Chairman, c) an Illinois Center Right Coalition Steering Committee member, d) the Milton Township Republican Organization (MTRO) webmaster and I played a very big role in MTRO’s fundraiser and straw poll that year, e) a Wheaton Chamber of Commerce Government Affairs Committee member, f) an American Association of Political Consultants Midwest Chapter board member, and g) a Republican Precinct Committeeman. I organized a July 3rd picnic for the voters in my precinct and the precincts to the east and west that more than 200 attended including five Republican candidates for U.S. Senate: John Cox, Chirinjeev Kathuria, Andrew McKenna, Jim Oberweis, and Jack Ryan.

Because of my early retirement, my Civil Service Retirement System pension has always been dramatically reduced and it always will be dramatically reduced. In today’s dollars, it is a) only 44% of what my GAO salary was in 1997 and b) less than what my IRS salary was in 1972 when I was 23.)

Our doctors did not recommend it because we both had big fertility problems. Further, my Democrat GAO superiors stressed that we did not adopt or become foster parents. Further, they strongly hinted/implied/argued/shouted that if my wife and I had children, a) I would not have been able to pass the CPA examination on my first attempt in 1979, earn a master’s degree in accounting from DePaul in 1980, pass the Certified Internal Auditor examination on my first attempt in 1981, or become a licensed CPA in 1981 and b) my wife would not have been able to earn a bachelor’s degree in finance from DePaul in 1986.

https://www.cbsnews.com/chicago/news/volunteer-run-migrant-shelter-in-pilsen-forced-to-close/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The unique shelter for newly arrived migrants has been operating for four nearly four months, funded entirely by donations and staffed by volunteers – with no government subsidies or staffing. Now it must shut its doors for good. “Part of that is around our volunteer capacity, part of that is around our ability to fundraise,” said volunteer Anna DiStefano. . .Insurance issues with the property, lack of funding and staff – many of whom are educators and had to go back to the classrooms with the new school year – all contributed to its closing.)

— Democrats say “Feeling the heat, without Trump.”
https://www.politico.com/newsletters/illinois-playbook/2023/08/24/feeling-the-heat-without-trump-00112719
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Illinois was criticized for having a low credit rating — even below Chris Christie’s New Jersey. Sen. Tim Scott attacked Illinois, California and New York for allowing late-term abortions. Crime in Chicago came up a few times, including during a discussion about lockdowns during the pandemic. And Ramaswamy twice mentioned the South Side, saying instead of funding Ukraine, the government should help the Chicago neighborhood. Ramaswamy even described himself as “a skinny kid with a funny name.” Hey, that’s Barack Obama’s line! Christie would use the line to attack Ramaswamy on Obama-era policies. Gov. JB Pritzker responded to one of the attacks this way: “Pretty sure a vast majority of voters would be just fine if abortion policy was left up to Illinois,” he posted on X, formerly known as Twitter. A few take-aways from Illinoisans seated in the arena: Sue Rezin, the Illinois state senator, liked Ron DeSantis’ “common-sense approach” to government, saying, “it demonstrates that he’s able to comprehend and tackle the important issues that are crushing hard-working families and threatening our national security.” Ashvin Lad, an entrepreneur, was “surprised at how little” the other candidates went after DeSantis, instead focusing their attacks on Ramaswamy. (Us, too, Ashvin.) Pat Brady, the former Illinois GOP leader saw Nikki Haley as “the clear choice,” adding, “Trump lite isn’t going to carry the day.” It was a reference to Ramaswamy and DeSantis. And Jim Durkin, the former Illinois House Republican leader: “Christie said what had to be said about Trump — calling him out for saying Putin is a genius and savvy for the invasion.” It prompted boos from the crowd, a reminder that Trump is still an integral part of the GOP, whether he’s on the stage or not. . .Some Chicago Republicans gathered at the Billy Goat Inn on Madison Avenue in Chicago Wednesday night to watch the Republican presidential debate. They took a straw poll. The winner: Vivek Ramaswamy with 57.5 percent of the vote, followed by Ron DeSantis at 22.5 percent; Mike Pence at (?) percent; Tim Scott, Nikki Haley, Doug Burgum and Chris Christie, all at 2.5 percent; and Asa Hutchinson, zip. Some of the notables in the room: Chicago Republican Chair and Ward Committeeman Steve Boulton (32nd), former mayoral candidate Bob Fioretti and Nicki Fioretti, ward committee leaders Brian Kasal (43rd), Laura Kotelman (44th), Barry Bebart (39th), Steve Graves (19th), Wayland Johnson (9th), Chris Myers (28th), Evan Kasal (25th), Chicago Young Republicans President Lenny Sklaney, Surus LLC’s Barrett Davie and Chicago GOP Executive Director Jeff Fiedler.)

Vivek Ramaswamy was attacked from all sides with former Vice President Mike Pence calling him a “rookie,” and suggesting he was “too young” to be president. When questioned about supporting Ukraine, Ramaswamy and Gov. Ron DeSantis said they would prioritize the U.S. southern border. Arkansas Gov. Asa Hutchinson did not raise his hand when asked if he would support Trump if he is convicted on criminal charges and becomes the Republican presidential nominee. Former New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie appeared to raise his hand, then later clarified that he would not support Trump as a nominee if he were convicted.)

I am especially thankful for the IRS manager who promoted me in 1972, 1973, and 1974. But my Democrat IRS superiors got rid of him. I am especially thankful for the GAO manager who arranged for my transfer from IRS to GAO in 1980 and who finally succeeded in getting me assigned to audits of IRS and promoting me in 1986.

— Democrats crow that “Illinois lands $1.3M federal grant to promote more women in construction industry.” While I worked for GAO 1980-1997, for IRS 1971-1980, and for the Post Office 1966-1969, the agencies were always under tremendous pressure from Democrat politicians to hire, to retain, and to promote Democrat women, and especially Democrat women who were minority and/or younger.

NBC5
— Democrats say “Salary information coming to Illinois job postings under new law.” Federal employee salaries have always been transparent. In 1980, when I was 31 years old, the Democrats who ran GAO’s Chicago office offered me only $82,720/year (GS-9 Step 10) in today’s dollars to transfer from IRS to GAO. In today’s dollars, that was a $21,863/year (21%) pay cut; my GS-12 Step 5 IRS salary was $104,583/year. GAO audits IRS. I was an IRS Special Procedures Staff Advisor. Much of what I did for IRS was very similar to what I would be doing for GAO as an Analyst. I had 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. I had passed the CPA examination on my first attempt in 1979. I had earned an MBA from Loyola in 1976. If I had been a Democrat, minority, female, younger, or veteran, GAO would have offered me a promotion at least to GS-13, currently $109,732/year, to transfer. GAO did not promote me to GS-13 until 1986. Since 1980, my Democrat GAO superiors, supervisors, coworkers, and subordinates and the rest of my critics/opponents have used the aforesaid pay cut against me big time.

McGlaughlin ran Roskam’s campaign against Duckworth 2006.

According to my critics/opponents, I painted Roskam as being far more conservative than they wanted him to be painted. They cringed that I got 25 homeowners in my precinct to display signs for Roskam. Of course. my critics/opponents blame me and blame my GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters for Roskam’s defeat in 2018.

They stressed that I only just barely made it into the upper 20% of my 1966 Crete-Monee High School class and that my ACT score was only 24. My Democrat superiors in the federal government ignored, dismissed, belittled, demonized, denigrated, and condemned the job-related degrees that I earned in 1970, 1976, 1980, and 1997.  In 1997, when I was 49 years old, my Democrat GAO superiors forced me to take their early retirement “offer” so that they could give my job and my preferred corner office to my Black subordinate which is exactly what they did.

(FROM THE ARTICLE: It comes as the party controls both of Indiana’s U.S. Senate seats, seven of the state’s nine congressional districts, has supermajorities in both chambers of the General Assembly and holds more than 90% of county-elected offices across the state. It also controls the governor’s office, and numerous Republicans are vying for the nomination to replace GOP Gov. Eric Holcomb, who cannot run again because of term limits. In 2019, 19 mayoral offices in Indiana flipped to Republicans, including in many Democratic strongholds such as Kokomo and Muncie. “The Indiana Republican Party is strong. And I believe that if we continue to deliver results that matter, Hoosiers will continue to place their trust in us and elect and reelect Republicans long into the future,” Hupfer said.)

MCHENRY COUNTY BLOG
— Illinois Republican Party State Central Committee Meets without Drama of No Confidence Vote Against Chairman Don Tracy – John Lopez
https://mchenrycountyblog.com/2023/08/19/ilrscc/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: On Thursday, August 17, Republican Day at the Illinois State Fair took place. The various festivities by the Illinois Republican Party State Central Committee (SCC), the governing body for Illinois Republicans under the leadership of Chairman Don Tracy included the August meeting of the SCC, where Tracy met with the 17 Republican state central committeepersons, the governing body of the Illinois Republican Party, plus various elected and appointed Republican officials. But unlike the last SCC meeting in April, when a “no confidence” vote on Chairman Don Tracy was called for and taken in executive session, and written up in several publications including McHenry County Blog, no such action was taken at the August SCC meeting, the first time the SCC met since April. Indeed, in the run-up to Thursday’s SCC meeting, there wasn’t even talk about a no confidence vote against Chairman Tracy, given the results of last November’s general election and the results of the April 4 elections went against conservative/grassroots candidates (with the exception of McHenry County-based School District 158). So has the grassroots conservatives given up on replacing Chairman Tracy? Or was all this talk of a grassroots conservative rebellion against Chairman Tracy just that, talk with a signal boost from Illinois Review? Or is it something else? It’s definitely something else going on, and here is what I’ve been able to piece together. As was written elsewhere, SCC Chairman Tracy formed a “Grassroots Task Force” of the SCC and tapped 14th Congressional District SCC Member Larry Smith, who’s the LaSalle County Republican Party chairman to lead the Grassroots Task Force. 8th Congressional District SCC Member Dean White of St. Charles was appointed as a co-chair/vice-chair, but the leader is Smith. From mid spring to late July, grassroots activists have been meeting with Smith and White to organize this SCC Grassroots Task Force into something productive, and not be a failed “outreach” effort as so many SCC initiatives became in the past. Political consultant Mr. Val Ojeda, who also publishes a blog he launched last December called The Illinois Republican, took a leading role to help Grassroots Task Force Chairman Smith organize the SCC Grassroots Task Force, including naming its members from among the grassroots. Ojeda stressed how it was important all sections of Illinois be represented on the Grassroots Task Force, meaning members from Chicago, Chicagoland suburbs/exurbs and downstate. In a July 27 op-ed on The Illinois Republican, Ojeda published three appointments to the Illinois Republican Party’s Grassroots Task Force, the first being the Illinois Freedom Alliance, which is based out of Moline and includes activists Annette Parchert, Nancy Hayes, Jennifer Luebbers, George Weckbacher and others. So the Moline-based Illinois Freedom Alliance represents downstate. Representing the city of Chicago is Christine Shanahan McGovern (R, Mt. Greenwood), who unsuccessfully ran for the state senate last fall, losing a close race to 5-term incumbent state Senator Bill Cunningham (D, Beverly).)

Anticipate/expect that Democrat plant, Libertarian plant, Green plant, Independent plant, and RINO leaders of the Illinois Republican Party (IRP) will do everything that they can at the IRP State Convention next year to water down if not strike the following planks in the IRP platform: law and order, individual responsibility, traditional marriage and family, right to life, immigration, illegal drugs, Second Amendment, and equal opportunity (no race or gender based preference giving). Conservatives, that is, platform Republicans, that is, Republicans should demand in the strongest terms that their IRP State Central Committee member stop the aforesaid.)

https://www.kiplinger.com/personal-finance/how-much-money-do-you-need-to-be-rich-survey-reveals-wealth-goals
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Respondents concluded that an average net worth of $2.2 million would be considered wealthy in 2023. This is unchanged from the $2.2 million mark recorded in Schwab’s 2022 survey, but still well below the high mark of $2.6 million recorded in its pre-pandemic 2020 survey. Schwab’s latest survey also reveals that roughly half of respondents say they already feel wealthy today, despite having an average net worth of only $560,000. This total represents only a quarter of the consensus threshold of being rich in America. So, what’s going on here?)

— Why I won’t be attending my 50th high school reunion – Stephen J. Lyons (COMMENT: When you were in high school, were you viewed as being “college material?” I was not. Neither of my parents had attended college. My father was only the first of my ancestors to earn a high school diploma. My mother never attended high school. My eyesight could not be corrected to 20/20. I had partial red/green color blindness. I could not run because I had a bone disease. My father never earned more than $50,000/year in today’s dollars and almost always worked second jobs to pay the family’s bills. Nevertheless, to have money for college, I washed dishes for the minimum wage during my junior and senior years and the summer in between. I took college preparatory courses. I got an ACT score of 24. I graduated in the upper 20% of my class. I got accepted by UIC. And I bought a new 1966 Pontiac Tempest Sprint in May of 1966 to commute to/from UIC classes and my parents’ home in Crete. My father often decried his not having a college degree. Those around him discouraged him from going to college because he had brittle type 1 diabetes and doctors said the stress of seeking a college degree would harm his health.)

— Suburban mayor shuts down plan to take migrants from Chicago – Andrew Hensel
https://www.thecentersquare.com/illinois/article_1e00422e-3e11-11ee-84e8-b38466701f93.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson says the city of Chicago has had conversations with suburban leaders in Cook and other counties about the possibility of moving migrants into their communities. However, some suburban leaders have voiced their concerns. Thousands of migrant families have arrived in Chicago over the past year. City officials have placed many in police stations, YMCAs and Daley College. Recently, Johnson said the city is looking for other towns to help with housing migrants. “We’ve had conversations with mayors across not just Cook County but the surrounding counties, and we have had tremendous feedback,” Johnson said Monday. “We see some real support on the horizon.” Keith Pekau, the Republican mayor of Orland Park, a Cook County suburb of more than 57,000 people, told The Center Square that he is not on board with the idea. “None of us have the resources for this. We do not have health departments. We do not have that kind of stuff,” Pekau said. “[Gov. J.B. Pritzker] has called us a sanctuary state, right? Here’s the deal, at the state level, the state has been ripping all the municipalities off by the Local Government Distributive Fund since prior to Pritzker.” Many Illinois suburbs do not have the funds to take care of the migrants, he said. “Municipalities have been getting screwed by the state of Illinois. Our residents are helping them [the state] pay for things off their own backs that they don’t even know about,” Pekau said. “Keep in mind how Pritzker attacks all the municipalities for property taxes and everything else but guess what? You are taking away money from them first.” Pekau also criticized Johnson and President Joe Biden for what he said was a violation of U.S. law. “I think, at a high level, it is very simple. Joe Biden is putting his nose in the air to our laws and is violating our laws at the border,” Pekau said. “Brandon Johnson and his city have supported this, and he and the Cook County Board want them to be a sanctuary city, and that violates our laws as well.” Just this month, Johnson said that Chicago would remain open for those that wish to come there, reaffirming the city’s stance as a “sanctuary city” or a jurisdiction with lax local enforcement of federal immigration laws. “Here’s what I am committed to doing, honoring the law of being a sanctuary city and building systems of care that provide a pathway with dignity for individuals who are seeking refuge here in the city of Chicago,” Johnson said. Around 12,000 migrants have arrived in Chicago from the southern U.S. border in the past year. So far, city and state taxpayers have set aside $94 million for migrant housing. The state budget has $550 million in taxpayer subsidies for health care of migrants over the age of 65.)

As CBS 2’s Charlie De Mar reported, the parents feel that complaints from students about certain staff members are not being taken seriously.

The board responded Wednesday night with policy changes. The parents were armed with handwritten signs and their voices as they rallied outside the school board meeting Wednesday night.)

GATEWAY PUNDIT
— Illinois’ Latest Attack on Free Speech- Gov. Pritzker Signs “Anti-Doxing” Bill – Margaret Flavin (COMMENT: Anticipate/expect that my critics/opponents will use this new law to sue me. My critics/opponents blame me and my GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters for all of their problems, for all of your problems, for all of my problems, and for all of everyone’s problems. Anticipate/expect that the first lawsuits will be filed by Republican candidates on ballots in my precinct since 2000 a) who have lost elections and b) who I have done the most to help elect and to help reelect.)
https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2023/08/illinois-latest-attack-free-speech-gov-pritzker-signs/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Pritzker has signed the Illinois Civil Liability for Doxing Act. Under the new law, Illinoisans are now at risk, under the law, for writing or sharing in any manner…..even truthful, simple facts. WirePoints reports that the new law, “lets those who are doxed bring lawsuits for damages against the doxer, subject to certain broad, vague requirements described below.” While the definition of “Doxing” most commonly used is sharing personal information about someone on the internet that makes them vulnerable to harassment, shaming or revenge. But, while the new law uses the word doxing to garner sympathy or a concerning danger on social media, the new law has an entirely different definition in the law. WirePoints reports: The law is over-broad, going far beyond the malicious conduct normally associated with doxing. To understand, imagine doing any of the following -– things you would think surely could not expose you to liability for doxing. Then we will check through what the law says is required to make you liable, which probably will surprise you. You write on social media, “Look at Sam Smith’s Facebook page. He says he couldn’t care less about the victims of the Highland Park mass murder and that the right to own assault weapons is God-given.” You send out a group email with a copy of a pamphlet from a local Communist Party chapter showing their members’ names. You publish on the internet the names of the three Illinois lawmakers with the most extreme views on abortion along with your reasons why. You write a column that you post on the internet naming certain public school teachers you think are exceptionally bad for promoting critical race theory and gender alteration for minors, along with your reasons why.)

— Trump Indicted for Citing Data From Ph.D.-Vetted Study to Challenge Election Fraud – James Agresti (COMMENT: In 2020, how many illegals in your county, in your township, in your municipality, and in your precinct used their false identifications to vote for Biden and for the rest of the Democrat candidates?)
https://heartland.org/opinion/trump-indicted-for-citing-data-from-ph-d-vetted-study-to-challenge-election-fraud/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: For example, the indictment accuses Trump of lying because he “said that more than 30,000 non-citizens had voted in Arizona” . . . The indictment creates the impression that Trump pulled the figure of “more than 30,000” out of thin air. In reality, it’s from a rigorously documented study that was vetted by two Ph.D. scholars, published by the research institute Just Facts, and conducted by James D. Agresti, the organization’s president and author of the present article. Reinforcing the integrity of the study, a Facebook-funded attempt by USA Today to “fact check” it fell flat. In brief, a D.C.-based grand jury indicted Trump in part for citing a factual study instead of claims from people the jury deems to be reliable. These jurors were drawn from the politically stacked jury pool of Washington, D.C. where 92% of the population voted for Joe Biden. The indictment was obtained by Jack Smith, a prosecutor who was hand-picked by the Biden administration.)

— Democrats say “Trump refusal to sign loyalty pledge puts RNC in bind.” Since 2000, for general elections, I have always helped elect those candidates on ballots in my precinct who won primary elections. But I should write a book about those Republican candidates on ballots in my precinct who lost general elections and who have blamed me and my GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters for their loses. Previously, they blamed their losses on what I did as a) the Republican fundraiser for Wheaton Independence Day parades and fireworks, b) the TAPROOT Republicans of Illinois chairman, c) a Wheaton Chamber of Commerce Government Affairs Committee member, d) the Milton Township Republican Organization webmaster 2008-2010 and 2000-2004, e) an Illinois Center Right Coalition Steering Committee member 2003-2007, and f) an American Association of Political Consultants Midwest Chapter board member 2001-2004.

BARRON’S
— Democrats say “Ivy Degrees, Legacies, and Wealth. Where Colleges Should Go From Here.” What do Ivy League degree holders think of you? I should write a book the many adverse actions that University of Chicago degree holders have taken against me.
https://www.barrons.com/articles/exploring-the-link-between-college-admissions-policies-and-social-mobility-211521a7
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Although the Supreme Court ruled in June against race-based college admissions, that hardly put an end to the vigorous debate about the role that educational institutions should play in promoting social and economic mobility. On the heels of that decision, three prominent economists—Harvard University’s Raj Chetty and David J. Deming, and Brown University’s John N. Friedman—weighed in with a study that examined the determinants and consequences of admission to highly selective colleges, the eight Ivy League colleges plus the University of Chicago, Duke University, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, and Stanford University. While less than 1% of Americans attend these schools, their graduates account disproportionately for the nation’s wealthiest citizens, scholars, and leaders, including a quarter of U.S. Senators, half of all Rhodes scholars, and three-fourths of the Supreme Court justices appointed in the past 50 years. Ivy and Ivy-plus graduates are also three times more likely to work for the nation’s most illustrious employers, Chetty, et al. found. Yet, for various reasons ranging from preferential treatment of legacies, or applicants with alumni connections, to higher-quality recommendation letters, these elite schools are dominated by students from wealthy backgrounds, rather than middle- and lower-income students with comparable standardized testing scores. The study, published by Harvard-based Opportunity Insights, sought to answer two questions: Do highly selective colleges perpetuate privilege across generations, and could these colleges diversify America’s leaders by changing their admissions policies? The answers, perhaps not surprisingly, are yes and yes.)

https://www.pewresearch.org/short-reads/2023/08/16/11-facts-about-hispanic-origin-groups-in-the-us/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: In 2022, there were 63.7 million Hispanics living in the United States. The U.S. Hispanic population has diverse origins in Latin America and Spain. Recently, the origins of U.S. Hispanics have begun to shift as patterns of immigration from Latin America change. Notably, the number of Mexican immigrants living in the U.S. has fallen as the number of immigrants who identify as Dominican, Venezuelan, Guatemalan, Honduran, Salvadoran or with another Hispanic origin has grown. . . Eight Hispanic origin groups had at least 1 million people living in the U.S. in 2021. The five largest Hispanic populations in the U.S. by origin group were Mexicans (37.2 million), Puerto Ricans (5.8), Salvadorans (2.5), Dominicans (2.4) and Cubans (2.4). The other three origin groups with populations over 1 million were Guatemalans (1.8 million), Colombians (1.4) and Hondurans (1.1).)

Wheaton has never forgiven me for suing it for approving a grossly inadequate storm water drainage plan for the development that my home was built in. In fact, Wheaton has taken many big adverse actions against me because I sued it. I should have gotten a permanent restraining order against Wheaton.

The newsletters discourage Democrat, Libertarian, and Green party promotion of a) dependency on government and charity, b) LGBTQ, c) abortion, d) mass/illegal immigration, e) booze, gambling, pot, and other vices, f) diminishment of Second Amendment rights, and g) Affirmative Action, Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion, that is, patronage, political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, and age discrimination. If the Illinois Republican Party, Republican county party organizations, Republican township and ward party organizations, Republican elected officials, conservative leaders and activists, and religious leaders and activists did what they should be doing, there would be no need for GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters and Republicans would be the majority in Illinois, in DuPage County, in Milton Township, and in Wheaton.

I would focus on those who have/had lots of religious, government, political, and/or financial clout in Wheaton, Milton Township, DuPage County, and/or Illinois. I would focus on those who stress that I do not have a degree in journalism, that I am not paid for what I do, and that I do not claim to be nonpartisan. They ignore/downplay/dismiss/belittle/demonize/denigrate/condemn the fact that I worked for GAO as an Analyst for almost 18 years, the last 11 years of which at the GS-13 Step 1-10 Levels, currently $109,732-$142,650/year, and that most, if not virtually all, of what GAO Analysts do is extremely similar to what journalists and reporters do.)
https://www.dailysignal.com/2023/08/04/white-house-purges-442-reporters-using-new-press-credential-rules/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Over the past three months, the number of reporters with access to the White House dropped by 31%. There are now 442 fewer reporters with a coveted “hard pass”—the result of new rules announced in May that took effect Tuesday. The Daily Signal’s Fred Lucas was among the reporters slated to lose his White House press credentials, although he was given a 10-day extension “to submit the required materials.” The White House now requires reporters to obtain press credentials from Congress or the Supreme Court to fulfill its new requirement; Lucas is currently awaiting a decision on his applications to the other branches. Politico’s West Wing Playbook first reported the numbers Wednesday along with news that Simon Ateba, the White House correspondent for Today News Africa, lost his hard pass. Ateba, along with the other 441 reporters who no longer have credentials, won’t be able to attend White House press briefings or access the sprawling Pennsylvania Avenue campus unless they obtain what’s called a temporary day pass. The White House announced new rules in May to limit the number of journalists who are eligible for a White House hard pass. Reporters are still allowed to apply for a day pass, but they must do so daily and undergo Secret Service review. Up until this week, the White House didn’t disclose the number of reporters who had a hard pass. Politico reported, “Within the past three months, the number of hard pass holders dropped from 1,417 to 975, with those approved reflecting a mix of renewals and new applications.” . . . The six rules outlined in the May memo require reporters to be employed full time at an organization that disseminates news, live in the Washington, D.C., area, regularly access and cover the White House, and submit to a Secret Service investigation. They also now require pass holders to first obtain “accreditation by a press gallery in either the U.S. Senate, U.S. House of Representatives, or Supreme Court.” (See the full email from the White House Press Office at the end of this story.) The memo also gives President Joe Biden’s press team greater power to expel journalists who don’t “act in a professional manner.” Ateba regularly sparred with White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre, leading to stories in The New York Times, The Washington Post, and an appearance on the now-canceled “Tucker Carlson Tonight.” Last month, the White House Press Office sent Ateba a warning that he risked expulsion if he continued to interrupt briefings in violation of the new rules.)

— GOP lawmakers file amicus brief backing Texas against DOJ lawsuit over border barrier. The DOJ claims the barrier is in violation of federal law. – Adam Shaw (COMMENT: GAO works for Congress. My critics/opponents stress that neither Speaker Hastert nor any of my Republican U.S. Senators or U.S. Representatives filed any amicus briefs in Diersen v. GAO. I should write a book about how the aforesaid acted like they got advice to reject the equal opportunity (no race or gender based preference giving) plank in the Republican Party platform. I would focus on how they acted like they got advice to promote political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, and age discrimination against those like me a) who they could not manipulate or dominate, b) who refused to glorify and praise them, c) who refused to pander to them, d) who refused to serve as one of their operatives or dupes, e) who refused to cover up their wrongdoing, and/or f) who refused to give them money. I would focus how they acted like they got advice to promote Affirmative Action, Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion to get votes from minorities, females, and younger people.)

— House Republicans want to wipe out staff unions – Jim Saksa (COMMENT: GAO works for Congress. GAO did not unionize until 2007. If GAO had been unionized in 1997, I might still be a GAO employee. I was a union member while I worked for IRS 1971-1980 and for the Post Office 1966-1969. I should write a book about my critics/opponents who have demonstrated the most hatred against unions and against union members.)

— Democrats say “Donald Trump’s Republican rivals knock him for refusing to sign loyalty pledge.” I have been a member of the Milton Township Republican Organization (MTRO) since 1999. MTRO has always required its members to fully support all the Republican candidates in general elections who win primary elections and I have always done that. I have always fully supported those candidates, including those candidates a) who blame me and who blame my GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters for their defeats in general elections and b) who have taken big adverse actions against me. I should write a book about those candidates.
