https://www.illinoisreview.com/illinoisreview/2021/07/new-illinois-office-of-equity-will-promote-diversity-equity-and-inclusion-across-state-government.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Just out of the Governor’s office this Friday afternoon. Will work on a response in upcoming Illinois Review stories. At first glance, it appears Governor Pritzker is taking the state of Illinois even further into a Leftist mindset – something that is of no surprise to attentive conservative Illinoisans. Some are seeing it immediately as ushering in a state government guided by the Critical Race Theory so many are opposing in school curriculum.)

Does it mean that the percentage of minorities, females, LGBTQers, etc. who UIC, NIU, Loyola, DePaul, and IIT accept must be the same percentage as those who are White, male, heterosexual, etc.?

(FROM THE ARTICLE: Tweets and videos are putting the vaccine culture wars on full display. Some elected Republicans are speaking up in favor of getting the vax, while three GOP gubernatorial candidates say they haven’t been vaccinated — and probably won’t be. Congressman Rodney Davis tweeted “Please, get vaccinated. They’re safe and effective. Do it to protect your health and that of those around you so we can finally end this pandemic.” And just to be totally frank, he added, “Don’t give @JBPritzker an excuse to shut the economy down again.” State Rep. Avery Bourne tweeted a picture of herself getting the vaccine, saying “I’m vaccinated & I encourage others to get vaccinated too.” Meanwhile, a video surfaced (h/t Mark Maxwell) of a GOP campaign forum where gubernatorial candidates were asked if they had been vaccinated. Only former Republican state Sen. Paul Schimpf said he had been. The others — state Sen. Darren Bailey, businessman Gary Rabine, and attorney Max Solomon — all said no. The Illinois Republican Party didn’t mince words on its opinion about getting the vaccine. “We encourage people to get the vaccine to put the pandemic behind us,” a spokesman told Playbook. The vax clash comes as the debate and discussions about masks heat up. Republicans are united in not wanting to see Gov. J.B. Pritzker issue any more mandates.)

Now, his advisers are concerned about an Ohio race up next week. – ALEX ISENSTADT (DIERSEN: How are the following trending: your Republican township/ward party organization, your Republican county party organization, and the Illinois Republican Party (IRP)? From what I see based on my serving as an elected DuPage County Milton Township Republican Precinct Committeeman since 2000 and as the GOPUSA Illinois Editor since 2000, ever-increasingly, the Milton Township Republican Organization (MTRO), DuPage County Republican Central Committee (DCRCC), and IRP are ever-increasingly moving further to the left. Ever-increasingly, the leaders of the aforesaid talk and/or act like they want the Republican Party to dump the traditional family, right to life, immigration, illegal drugs, Second Amendment, and equal opportunity (no race or gender based preference giving) planks in the Republican Party platform. Ever-increasingly, they say and/or do things that promote dependency on government, dependency on charity, LGBTQ, abortion, mass/illegal immigration, booze, gambling, pot, and other vices, abolition of the First and Second Amendments, patronage, political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, and age discrimination. Everyone in Illinois sees how the MTRO, DCRCC, and IRP treat me and treat my GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters. Everyone in Illinois sees the support that those got who stopped me from raising funds from Republicans to help sponsor Wheaton’s 2021 Independence Day Parade and Fireworks. Expect that as soon as they have enough votes, MTRO, DCRCC, and IRP leaders will pass resolutions that condemn Trump and glorify and praise Kinzinger.)

— New NPR Ethics Policy: It’s OK For Journalists To Demonstrate (Sometimes) – Kelly McBride
https://www.npr.org/sections/publiceditor/2021/07/29/1021802098/new-npr-ethics-policy-its-ok-for-journalists-to-demonstrate-sometimes
(FROM THE ARTICLE: NPR rolled out a substantial update to its ethics policy earlier this month, expressly stating that journalists may participate in activities that advocate for “the freedom and dignity of human beings” on both social media and in real life. The new policy eliminates the blanket prohibition from participating in “marches, rallies and public events,” as well as vague language that directed NPR journalists to avoid personally advocating for “controversial” or “polarizing” issues. NPR’s current ethics policy was first drafted in the early 2000s, and then given an overhaul in 2010-2011. The new NPR policy reads, “NPR editorial staff may express support for democratic, civic values that are core to NPR’s work, such as, but not limited to: the freedom and dignity of human beings, the rights of a free and independent press, the right to thrive in society without facing discrimination on the basis of race, ethnicity, gender, sexual identity, disability, or religion.” Is it OK to march in a demonstration and say, ‘Black lives matter’? What about a Pride parade? In theory, the answer today is, “Yes.” But in practice, NPR journalists will have to discuss specific decisions with their bosses, who in turn will have to ask a lot of questions. The carve-out is somewhat narrow. Protests organized with the purpose of demanding equal and fair treatment of people are now permitted, as long as the journalist asking is not covering the event. However, rallies organized to support a specific piece of legislation would be off-limits. Other events featuring a slate of political candidates from one party are also out of bounds. Even when NPR journalists can legitimately participate in a civic event, the new policy asks them to consider how their participation will impact their colleagues. When taking a public stance makes it harder for other NPR journalists to do their jobs, there is an expectation that the journalism will take precedence. This policy confronts the generations-old question in newsrooms: Where does the journalist end and the citizen begin?)

https://illinoisnewstoday.com/ap-norc-poll-many-republicans-are-worried-about-the-partys-future-wgn-radio-720/317398/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Republicans also have a lot of concerns about their party. Less than half, 41% of Republicans, say they are optimistic about the future of the GOP. Only 13% say they are “very” optimistic. And one-third, 33% say they are pessimistic . . .Polls show that Trump remains the commander of the party. Most former presidents tend to give up the spotlight after resigning, but Trump continues to insist on his power, holds rallies, supports and teases the 2024 comeback run. While 60% of the population has a negative view of Trump, 76% of Republicans have a positive view of him. And most want him to maintain at least some influence over the Republican Party in the future. Almost half of Republicans, 47%, say Trump should exert “more” influence on the party’s future, and another 34% say he should have “slight” influence. It states. Only 18% say Trump should have nothing. . .For the 2020 elections, 62% of Republicans say it is “very” or “very” important to continue investigating the elections. He was dismissed by a number of judges, including some of the state election authorities and his own attorney-at-law president. In contrast, only 38% are “very” or “very” important to continue investigating the January 6 incident, in which a group of Trump supporters slammed the Capitol in an attempt to stop the change of power. It states that. Only 10% of Republicans, like Democrats, say that democracy is working “very” or “very” well in this country today.

The down payment came from what I earned a) working for IRS full-time for the previous 15 months, first in Chicago, and then in Harvey and b) working for the Firestone Store in Chicago Heights part-time for the previous 18 months and full-time for the 7 months before that. That income also enabled me to buy a new 1972 Corvette in 1971 and to pay for tuition and books for graduate business courses at Loyola for the previous 9 months.)

https://www.politico.com/newsletters/illinois-playbook/2021/07/26/kinzinger-joins-jan-6-panel-raouls-hamilton-story-pritzker-team-takes-shape-493730
(FROM THE ARTICLE: “I’m against [Kinzinger] being appointed by Speaker Pelosi,” said Republican state Sen. Darren Bailey, who is running for governor of Illinois and says Republicans should name Republicans to the committee, and Democrats, Democrats. “In Illinois, we know all too well what happens when you give a speaker this much power and it never ends well for the people. This behavior only leads more people to believe Pelosi is trying to manipulate this commission for political gain instead of having honest conversations to uncover the truth,” Bailey told Playbook in a statement. Meanwhile, a spokesman for the Illinois GOP did not respond to a request for comment. And an official with the party who would only speak on background, said he welcomed Kinzinger’s appointment because it will “drag the party back to being a law and order party.” That they wouldn’t speak on the record is an indication that the party is still grappling with how to juggle the far-right Trump supporters who tend to live downstate (like Bailey) with northern Republicans who, like Kinzinger, are appalled at the insurrectionists.)

RINOs focus on destroying conservatives. I should write a book about RINO precinct committeemen, RINO candidates, RINO elected officials, RINO party leaders, RINO political consultants, RINO major donors, RINO fundraisers, RINO campaign managers, RINO campaign staff members, and RINO campaign volunteers who have done the most since 2000 to destroy the DuPage County Republican Central Committee and to destroy the Milton Township Republican Organization.)
https://cbs12.com/news/local/conservative-pac-formed-to-protest-people-moving-to-florida
(FROM THE ARTICLE: A conservative political action committee (CPAC) is painting a picture for Florida voters, warning that out-of-staters are moving to the Sunshine State in numbers that could potentially flip the state from leaning red to solid blue. The Save Our Sunshine State PAC (SOSS), formed in May, is making the pitch that COVID-19 is bringing unprecedented numbers of Americans to Florida from places like New York. “Massive migration to a state or city has ALWAYS resulted in increased violence and property crime rates, inflation, higher taxes, lower standards of living,” the PAC’s website says. The PAC was created by conservative political activist Rich Logis, who cites internal data that he claims projects that Florida will see thousands of liberal voters move into the state in the coming years. “It isn’t a question of us saying to them ‘you’re not welcome,’ what it’s a question of is us saying to them that ‘we are going to outnumber you in the political process,'” Logis told CBS12 News. “That’s totally inaccurate,” State Rep. Anna Eskamani, who recently founded the progressive voter registration organization People Power for Florida, told the Sun Sentinel. “The governor is doing everything he can to entice more conservatives to come to Florida.” Additionally, Eskamani told the Sun Sentinel that the SOSS website’s language was “very problematic and grounded in a white supremacy type of perspective of the future of our state.” State Rep. Omari Hardy, a progressive Democrat running for Congress in Florida’s 20th House District, told CBS12 News he believes the PAC seeks to further divide Americans. “Pitting Americans against Americans. That’s basically what this is about,” he added. “It’s the logical endpoint of Trumpism. I half expect these folks to propose building a wall around Florida and making New Yorkers pay for it.” Meanwhile, Logis believes Florida voters have to act quickly in order to counteract Democratic voters moving into the state. He says his PAC — which has not yet raised any money, according to filing records — will support voter registration. “That is the solution to make sure that Florida does not become another New York or another California,” he said.)

SPRINGFIELD STATE JOURNAL REGISTER
— Free college, universal preschool among the goals for Pritzker in his bid for second term – Dean Olsen (DIERSEN: Republicans should blast Pritzker for promoting dependency on government, dependency on charity, LGBTQ, abortion, mass/illegal immigration, booze, gambling, pot, and other vices, abolition of the First and Second Amendments, patronage, political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, and age discrimination.)
https://www.sj-r.com/story/news/2021/07/21/gov-pritzker-cutting-corporate-welfare-help-expand-education/8048035002/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Illinois Republican Party Chairman Don Tracy said in a statement that Pritzker’s response to the COVID-19 pandemic has been a failure. “Gov. Pritzker failed our most vulnerable in their time of need,” said Tracy, a Springfield resident. “When our children missed an entire year of in-person education, Pritzker was silent while political teachers unions forced children to stay home even when the science and CDC said they should be back in school. “When thousands of Illinoisans were laid off from work, they went weeks without help from Pritzker’s incompetent state unemployment agency,” Tracy said. “And when our nation’s elderly heroes needed protection from the virus in our state facilities, the tragic mistakes of the Pritzker administration led to the death of 36 veterans at LaSalle Veterans Home.”)

EVANSTON PATCH

Dozens of demonstrators gathered Tuesday at James Park to denounce a lawsuit filed last month by District 65 drama teacher Stacy Deemar. – Jonah Meadows (DIERSEN: In 1971, when I was 22 years old, Oldsmobile withdrew a job offer that I had accepted saying that Oldsmobile had just agreed to stop hiring Whites to settle an EEOC complaint. 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 they did. My critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes have no problem with the aforesaid. According to them, I should the price of Affirmative Action, Diversity, and Inclusion big time, that is, pay reparations big time, because I am White, male, healthy, draft avoider, non-poor, Protestant, 100% German American, conservative, Republican, married since 1978, and my ancestors have been in America since 1844.)

POLITICO ILLINOIS
— KINZINGER’s BIG HAUL – Shia Kapos
https://www.politico.com/newsletters/illinois-playbook/2021/07/12/kinzingers-big-haul-latino-caucus-map-moves-cook-county-strike-scoop-493537
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Congressman Adam Kinzinger has raised a whopping $1.3 million in the second quarter of the year, according to a source close to his campaign. Broken down, that’s $800,000 for his re-election campaign and $500,000 for his leadership PAC. In the past six months, Kinzinger has raised $3.6 million, nearly all from individuals, and more than $700,000 from within Illinois. “This is not the kind of money that gets raised in a rural district. It looks like something more attuned to someone running statewide,” former Republican Congressman Bob Dold told Playbook. Dold’s comment hints at what might happen if Kinzinger’s 16th Congressional District is squeezed out of the remap: a possible run for U.S. Senate or even governor. Early census numbers show Illinois is losing one seat, but until final figures are released and districts are redrawn, we won’t know whose seat will be out. For now, Kinzinger is focusing on getting re-elected to Congress. And his second-quarter fundraising shows he hasn’t been hurt by speaking out against Donald Trump’s rhetoric or the former president’s supporters who attacked the U.S. Capitol. Kinzinger has become publicly isolated within the GOP for calling on the party to reject conspiracy theories pushed by Trump. Still, while Kinzinger has spoken out against Trump’s conspiracies, freshman Republican Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene has benefited from embracing them. In the first quarter, she amassed $3.4 million.)

It happens bit by bit. Quietly and subtly, and you will barely notice it. Just like you worried, we’ll change their group of friends. You won’t approve of where they go at night. You’ll be disgusted, when they start finding things online, that you kept far from their sight. We’ll convert your children. Yes, we will! There’s really no escaping it. We’ll convert your children. We’re coming for them! We’re coming for your children! We’re coming for your children! Soon, we’re almost certain, your kids will start converting you. We’ll convert your children, and then we’ll turn to you!”)
