— Susan Wright, Endorsed By Donald Trump, Advances To U.S. House Runoff In Texas – AP (DIERSEN: Which of the candidates on March 15, 2022 Republican primary ballots in Illinois a) will seek/get Trump’s endorsement or b) will seek/get Kinzinger’s endorsement?)
https://www.huffpost.com/entry/susan-wright-texas-runoff_n_608e933be4b046202708952e
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Most of the Republicans in the running had made flagrant appeals to Trump and his supporters in a race that at times has resembled a typical Texas GOP primary. The lone exception was Michael Wood, a combat veteran whose campaign was an early test for Republican Rep. Adam Kinzinger of Illinois, who is trying to lead a revolt in his party away from Trump. But Wood saw few voters answering his call to reject Trumpism, hovering at around 3% of the vote.)

If America is a racist nation, why do so many minorities want to come to America and to stay in America? Ever-increasingly, Democrats use government a) to give minorities preference over Whites and b) to give citizens of foreign countries preference over citizens of America.

More than a dozen people say they’re resigning from the Chicago-based maker of project management systems. – JOHN PLETZ (DIERSEN: While I worked for the Democrats who ran GAO’s Chicago office 1980-1997, my Democrat coworkers and Democrat subordinates frequently asked me questions to get me to affirm a) that I was a conservative Republican, b) that I opposed political affiliation discrimination, c) that I opposed reverse discrimination, that is, that I opposed race and gender based preference giving, d) that I opposed age discrimination, e) that I had avoided the draft, f) that I was 100% German American, g) that I was a Missouri Synod Lutheran, h) that my ancestors had been in America since 1844, h) that had lived in Crete 1948-1972 and that I had lived in Wheaton since 1978, i) that my wife had a good job, j) that my wife and I had given up trying to have children, that we did not adopt, and we did not become foster parents, k) that we had a home built in Wheaton in 1984, l) that I bought collector cars in 1989 and 1994, m) that etc. Of course, they shared my responses with my Democrat supervisors and superiors.)

MILWAUKEE INDEPENDENT
— DIERSEN HEADLINE: How long have your ancestors been in America? Even-increasingly, according to Democrats, if you are a White male Republican, the longer that your ancestors have been in America, a) the more that you have benefitted from their discrimination against minorities and against females, b) the more reparations that you should pay, and c) the more that you should pay the price of Affirmative Action, Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion. My critics/opponents stress that my ancestors have been in America since 1844, that I am White, that I am male, that I am Republican, that I am old (born in 1948), that I am conservative, that I was baptized, raised, and confirmed as a Missouri Synod Lutheran, that I am 100% German national origin, that I lived in Crete 1948-1972 and I have lived in Wheaton since 1978, that I avoided the draft, that my wife and I never had dependents, that I have good health, and that I am not poor. In my defense, I stress that my ancestors always lived in northeast Illinois, that they never had enough clout to discriminate against anyone even if they wanted to, that I bought a new town home in University Park in 1972, that I was a union member for almost 12 years, and that my Democrat superiors in the federal government forced me to pay the price of Affirmative Action, Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion big time.)

Of course, my Democrat GAO superiors, supervisors, coworkers, and subordinates were furious about that. My qualifications for being licensed included my passing the CPA examination on my first attempt in 1979, my having worked for IRS for almost 9 years, my having worked for GAO for 16 months, and my passing the Certified Internal Auditor (CIA) examination on my first attempt in 1981. Few of my GAO coworkers and subordinates had taken the CPA or CIA examinations, let alone passed them, let alone passed them on their first attempt. Few of my GAO coworkers and subordinates had any work experience before GAO hired them.)

NATIONAL REVIEW
— The Inequality of ‘Equity’ Progressive racial ideology points toward a dangerous neo-segregation – CHRISTOPHER CALDWELL (DIERSEN: What do your critics/opponents attribute your accomplishments to? First, my critics/opponents downplay/belittle my accomplishments. I earned a) a job-related bachelor’s degree when I was 21 in 1970 and job-related master’s degrees when I was 27, 31, and 48, b) job-related professional certifications when I was 30, 32, 41, 45, 47, and 48, and c) a job-related professional license when I was 32. IRS promoted me in 1972, 1973, and 1974 and GAO promoted me in 1986. Second, they hint/imply/argue/shout that whatever accomplishments that I had were because I unfairly benefitted from my being a White male. But they know full-well that if I had been a minority or a female with the aforesaid degrees, professional certifications, and professional license, IRS and GAO would have promoted me into their Senior Executive Services long before I was 40 years old.)
https://www.nationalreview.com/magazine/2021/05/17/inequality-of-equity/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: But in two ways the equity movement is radically new. First is in the categorical simplicity of its diagnosis. It views all inequality across groups as illegitimate on its face — as evidence of white racism, in fact. Second is in its tools. Equity doesn’t concern itself with more-traditional understandings of inequality — differences, say, between bosses and laborers. It is about equality for blacks, as laid out in the Civil Rights Act of 1964, and for the various groups, from immigrants to transgender people, that have come under the act’s protection in the decades since.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: The drafting subcommittee voted to reject planks calling for immediate wage and price controls, an immediate $12 billion anti-recession program and restraints on imports of foreign cars and steel, among others proposed by the Kennedy supporters on the panel. . .The Carter loyalists involved in the process took the position that since their man had won the overwhelming majority of convention delegates in the state primaries and caucuses, they should write the main points of the platform. The Kennedy camp — consistent with the current position on its candidate — refused to acknowledge a Carter victory, and refused to alter any of the important positions Kennedy has taken this year. Instead, the Kennedy loyalists on the platform drafting committee offered those positions as planks in the platform, and the pro-Carter majority consistently beat them back. . .All these were embodied in proposed platform planks, and all were rejected in the drafting committee yesterday by 7-to-5 or 8-to-5 votes. The committee consists of nine pro-Carter members, five pro-Kennedy members and one neutral, but all the Carter members were not in the meeting room yesterday.)

NATIONAL LAW REVIEW
— How Do You Prove A Harassment Claim? – Eric Bachman (DIERSEN: I should write a book about the hostile work environment that my Democrat superiors, supervisors, coworkers, and subordinates in the federal government created for federal employees who were Republican like me. I should write a book about the hostile environment that Democrat plant, Libertarian plant, Green plant, Independent plant, and RINO leaders, their operatives, and their dupes created in the Milton Township Republican Organization, Wheaton Chamber of Commerce, TAPROOT Republicans of Illinois, Illinois Center Right Coalition, and American Association of Political Consultants Midwest Chapter created for conservatives like me.)
https://www.natlawreview.com/article/how-continuing-violation-doctrine-can-help-your-employment-discrimination-case
(FROM THE ARTICLE: In a typical harassment/hostile work environment claim under Title VII of the 1964 Civil Rights Act, an employee must show that the discriminatory acts were severe or pervasive. The acts must also be based the employee’s protected characteristic (for example, gender, race, national origin, religion, disability). Petty slights and generally rude behavior will not rise to the level of an unlawful hostile work environment. A hostile work environment claim is different than other types of discrimination claims, such as failure to promote or hire, because the latter involve discrete acts that can be pinpointed to a particular date. Harassment claims, on the other hand, often involve a series of events that in the aggregate constitute a hostile work environment. Even if some of the specific acts standing alone may not be actionable as harassment, the cumulative effect of them can be.)

CHICAGO SUN-TIMES
— State’s unpaid bill backlog shrinks to $3.5 billion — and in Illinois, that’s called ‘remarkable.

WASHINGTON TIMES
— Biden’s racial equity agenda targets ‘exclusionary’ single-family neighborhoods – Kery Murakami (DIERSEN: Many in my Wheaton precinct believe that the south side of Roosevelt Road between the Prairie Path and Main Street is targeted for low-income apartment buildings.)
https://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2021/apr/28/biden-racial-equity-agenda-targets-exclusionary-si/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: President Biden wants to transform the character of many American cities and suburbs by building more apartment buildings in quiet and frequently disproportionately White neighborhoods of single-family homes. The Biden administration sees remnants of America’s segregationist past in what it calls “exclusionary” zoning laws, which allow only single-family homes in large swaths of cities and suburbs. As part of a racial equity agenda the president is pursuing in his massive infrastructure plan, Mr. Biden would send federal grants to cities if they eliminate those zoning laws and allow more lower-income people, often minorities, in areas that typically have better schools and fewer social ills that plague poor, inner-city communities.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: The gorilla in the room is Breitbart. It has two problems. The first is that, while it is generally a good source, it clearly pushes its product in the conservative direction. The second is that its website is formatted like a tabloid. If you want straight news, try Just the News or One America News Network. Newsmax and Fox are generally good, but neither sticks to straight news very well. The Epoch Times or the Wall Street Journal may also suit you. You may have to search for what you want. News aggregators such as The Liberty Daily, Citizen Free Press, Populist Press, and Conservative Playlist may have what you’re looking for. Once you leave pure news, you’ll be looking at commentary. If you want all sorts of viewpoints, RealClearPolitics is without peer. You’ll find the whole spectrum there, including the insane left. You pick and choose. There are also the three commentary sites I write for: American Thinker, Townhall, and NOQReport. There are lots of others, and as you follow hyperlinks in articles on those sites, you’ll discover more than you can possibly read. Particularly good ones are The Federalist, Reason Magazine, American Greatness, Daily Wire, and American Spectator.)

NEW YORK TIMES
— C.E.O. Pay Remains Stratospheric, Even at Companies Battered by Pandemic. While millions of people struggled to make ends meet, many of the companies hit hardest in 2020 showered their executives with riches. – David Gelles (DIERSEN: I should write a book about those who have viciously demonized me, viciously denigrated me, and viciously condemned me the most as being overpaid. In my defense, I earned a) a job-related bachelor’s degree when I was 21 in 1970 and job-related master’s degrees when I was 27, 31, and 48, b) job-related professional certifications when I was 30, 32, 41, 45, 47, and 48, and c) a job-related professional license when I was 32.)
https://www.nytimes.com/2021/04/24/business/ceos-pandemic-compensation.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Boeing had a historically bad 2020. Its 737 Max was grounded for most of the year after two deadly crashes, the pandemic decimated its business, and the company announced plans to lay off 30,000 workers and reported a $12 billion loss. Nonetheless, its chief executive, David Calhoun, was rewarded with some $21.1 million in compensation. Norwegian Cruise Line barely survived the year. With the cruise industry at a standstill, the company lost $4 billion and furloughed 20 percent of its staff. That didn’t stop Norwegian from more than doubling the pay of Frank Del Rio, its chief executive, to $36.4 million. And at Hilton, where nearly a quarter of the corporate staff were laid off as hotels around the world sat empty and the company lost $720 million, it was a good year for the man in charge. Hilton reported in a securities filing that Chris Nassetta, its chief executive, received compensation worth $55.9 million in 2020.)

Needless-to-say, each and every Republican leader in DuPage County should encourage each and every Republican Precinct Committeemen in DuPage County to read GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters.)
https://www.dailyherald.com/news/20210421/we-grieve-with-the-floyd-family-police-meet-chauvin-verdict-with-cheers-fears-uncertainty-
(FROM THE ARTICLE: DuPage County Sheriff James Mendrick said he supports a bodycam system that activates the cameras of every officer at the scene whenever one pulls out a gun or Taser. “I want the public to see exactly what we’re doing from every angle,” he said. Calling Floyd’s murder an “atrocity,” Mendrick said his deputies are getting training in avoiding violent confrontations. “Anything that can drop the level of force is desired,” Mendrick said, adding that Tasers give officers an option between bare hands and a deadly gun. As an officer, he carried a Taser for 11 years. “I never had to pull the trigger,” said Mendrick, who would explain the Taser to offenders. “Please don’t make me do this.” DuPage County deputies also are getting training in how to deal with mental health issues, crisis intervention and diversity training with the NAACP. Interviews with inmates showed that one of the major reasons for confrontations is when police ask people of color for identification without probable cause. “We’re using that to guide our training,” Mendrick said.)

POLITICO ILLINOIS
— The Illinois GOP has never been a fundraising juggernaut, and yet the first quarter numbers were still pretty bleak. For the first quarter, Illinois GOP reported receiving a little more than $115,000 in donations, leaving $74,374 in the bank after expenses, according to the State Board of Elections. Still, they’re worthy of an asterisk this time after a defeat at the top of the ticket and their new state leader has only been on the job since February. That left the Illinois GOP little time to define the party to potential donors. Is it the party of Donald Trump, for example? Or does it represent Rep. Adam Kinzinger? And what is the vision of party Chairman Don Tracy? The next quarter will be the real test of whether Tracy can galvanize support for his party. Another big question: Will billionaire Ken Griffin step in to help the way he did in the general election by funding opposition forces to the Democrats’ graduated income tax referendum? So far he and other donors have been missing from fundraising. The Democratic Party of Illinois, meanwhile, received about $2 million, leaving it with $2.6 million cash on hand. And Democratic Gov. J.B. Pritzker reports having $35 million in the bank, thanks to his self-funding. House Minority Leader Jim Durkin raised $125,000 in the first quarter and had about $267,00 on hand after expenses. His House Republican Organization, which funds GOP reps’ campaigns, raised $111,000, leaving a mere $200 in the bank after expenses. And Senate Minority Leader Dan McConchie raised $68,000 and has $432,000 cash on hand. His caucus committee raised $206,000 and has $209,000 in the bank. He’s new to the job, so it’s worth adding an asterisk there, too. Democratic Party leaders, who hold the majority, raked in the cash — even with their big fundraiser, former House Speaker Michael Madigan, out of the picture halfway through the quarter. New House Speaker Emanuel “Chris” Welch raised $1.2 million, with the Chicago Teachers Union making the largest donation: $59,900. Welch also contributed to local campaigns, leaving him $1.2 million cash on hand. And Senate President Don Harmon reported raising $402,000 and has nearly $6 million in the bank after spending $1.2 million primarily on the Senate Democrats’ caucus. – SHIA KAPOS

— How Generations of Presidents (Including Reagan) Wrecked Our Country – Michael Filozof
https://www.americanthinker.com/articles/2021/04/how_generations_of_presidents_including_reagan_wrecked_our_country.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Caldwell argues that the new “de facto constitution” has been used to supersede the Bill of Rights and the black-letter law of the traditional Constitution. Forced busing and forced integration violated the First Amendment right to freedom of association, as did affirmative action for blacks and women. Racial and sex-based preferences offend the Equal Protection Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment. These policies were enacted despite opposition from most Americans. . .Caldwell believes that the upshot of Reagan’s failure to undo the Great Society was the empowerment of minorities, women, immigrants, and wealthy globalist corporate elites (who turned out the be “woke” leftists in contrast with the conservative, buttoned-down corporate culture of the past). The losers were the white, working-class, traditional Americans who still believed in the old Constitution while under relentless wage pressure from immigration, affirmative action, and the offshoring of jobs — and were relentlessly mocked and sneered at by the media, politicians, and corporate oligarchs.)

FILLMORE COUNTY JOURNAL
— Tribal America – Stan Gudmundson, Peterson, MN
http://fillmorecountyjournal.com/tribal-america/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Obviously, there was much that needed correction. We tried to, with all sorts of schemes to include reverse discrimination, through programs like affirmative action, i.e., “black privilege.” But what dead people did to other dead people could not and cannot be fixed by discriminating against living innocents. Individual freedom should not have been sacrificed for tribal collectivism. I once toyed with the idea of becoming an FBI agent but I was advised not to apply. I was the wrong color and gender. The problem with the group rights “solutions” is that there is no fair way to determine who is entitled to what. Moreover, that approach transmutes constitutional guarantees of individual liberty into mere tribalism. It created, and still creates the impetus to further divide and subdivide us into more individual gangs, a consequence not clearly foreseen at the time. We are now split into many more tribes who now even have legally defined special rights. Gender, sexual preference, racial minorities to include black, Hispanic, Indian, illegal immigrants and on and on. Standing is based on power, therefore tribes must compete for attention, favors, resources, and legal status. That promotes unease and even provokes fear and hate of other gangs who are not part of the tribe. It also created a race-baiting industry whose advocates cannot allow racial problems to be solved. They would have to find other employment. The smallest minority is the individual. Our founders understood that and established a constitution based on individual liberty. When individual rights are protected, group rights are protected. A system based on group rights, rather than individual rights, completely obliterates the nature and character of America and the constitution our system is based on. That is why, despite the racial problems we had, group rights collectivization has been and is so dangerous. In the long run, giving tribes/gangs/mobs/hordes/packs legal group rights was never justified. The long-term damage and problems caused by wrecking the constitution, by far outweigh the civil rights issues of those days, despite being as bad as they might have been. Again, the imperative of individual liberty should never have been abandoned. Unless we eliminate the tribal system and unless we return to the system of individual constitutional liberty, the divide in America will become worse. Unfortunately, we will not get rid of tribalism and society/politics will become still nastier. Count on it.)
