I will hand-carry the following to all the homes in my precinct that have at least one registered Republican voter: copy of the sample ballot for the precinct, campaign literature that Republican candidates provide me, and information on mail-in voting and early voting. In addition, I will try to get yard sign locations. Factors that discourage me from endorsing candidates in non-partisan races include their not providing me with campaign literature to distribute. Further, it would be great if they would answer the following questions: If elected, would you encourage or discourage promotion of the following: a) reparations, b) BLM, c) LGBTQ, d) dependency on government, e) dependency on charity, f) abortion, g) mass/illegal immigration, h) booze, gambling, pot, and other vices, i) more gun controls, j) patronage, k) political affiliation discrimination, l) reverse discrimination, and m) age discrimination?

CRAIN’S CHICAGO BUSINESS
— Want to buy a home? Illinois will pay off your student loans – DENNIS RODKIN (DIERSEN: I bought a new town home in University Park September 1972 when I was 24 years old. The down payment came from what I had earned a) working for the Firestone Store in Chicago Heights full-time August 1970-March 1971 and part-time since March 1971 and b) working for IRS in Chicago and then Harvey since June 1971. That money also enabled me to buy a new 1972 Corvette in October 1971 and to pay tuition and books for graduate business courses at Loyola starting in January 1972. I had graduated debt-free from NIU August 1970 owning a 1969 Dodge Charger SE. The money for tuition, books, and room and board came from what I earned delivering mail for the Park Forest Post Office November 1966-September 1969.)

https://www.wsj.com/articles/the-woke-chinese-communist-party-11615153949
(FROM THE ARTICLE: “Canada, the UK and Australia, three members of the Five Eyes alliance, have recently taken action to put pressure on China. They have formed a US-centered, racist, and mafia-styled community,” said a Feb. 23 editorial in Global Times. “They are becoming a racist axis aimed at stifling the development rights of 1.4 billion Chinese.” The Communist Party-run paper notes that the members of Five Eyes, an intelligence-sharing network, “have a strong sense of civilization superiority.” U.S. Sen. Tom Cotton is a “neo-Nazi and extreme racist” and “the Trump administration is an extremely typical white supremacy government.” By resisting this bloc of English-speaking countries, the editorial concludes, “China is not only defending its own interests, we are also defending the diversity of the modern world.” Note the use of “white supremacy” and “diversity” and “civilization superiority,” which come straight from the progressive critique of America as a country that is “systemically” racist and oppressive. The Global Times editors may be crude but they’ve obviously been reading the New York Times. Their dismissal of Mr. Cotton as racist is what you see on progressive Twitter.)

(DIERSEN: White privilege and white supremacy are the Democrats’ new dog whistle as people have become immune to being called a racist. Joe Biden tosses those terms out just about daily now. They are meant to divide us, and I suspect most informed people, regardless of color, have figured this out as well. I certainly don’t expect any of my friends and acquaintance of color to be any more or less satisfied of their heritage than I am, as we are all equal in this country and the eyes of our maker. A person should be proud of their birthright. To force employees into mandatory training to instruct Caucasians to be less white is absurd … and racist. And who determined racism only comes in white? It is uncertain if the program was part of author Robin DeAngelo’s ongoing attempts to paint all white people as racist. She’s white and made a career writing books on the matter, one a best-seller, and teaches classes on the subject. Only after the backlash did she start denying she was involved with Coke, but Linkedin Learning used parts of her material. She’s obviously been doing well with leftists, college kids, and spineless woke executives.)

POLITICO ILLINOIS
— PRICE CHANGE: The House Republican Organization has doubled its dues for rank-and-file members from $10,000 per election cycle to $20,000. “The new structure will help our organization fund the increased number of races we anticipate post-remap and will accommodate additional member services,” executive director Jayme Odom said in an email to members. Along with the $20,000 fee for regular members, those in leadership will pay $55,000 per two-year cycle, and board members, $45,000. The HRO has been in a restructuring mode for a few years — ever since former Gov. Bruce Rauner lost re-election. The group had relied solely on his financial support, leaving the organization hobbled when he left office (and eventually skipped town to live in Florida). The HRO also named state Rep. Ryan Spain of Peoria as chairman, replacing state Rep. Tony McCombie. New board members include state Reps. Tim Ozinga, Dan Caulkins, Avery Bourne, Tim Butler and Charlie Meier. Rep. Jim Durkin, of course, is House Republican leader. RELATED: The one place House Republicans want to be Trump-free: “Republicans are sounding the alarm that his attempts to meddle in primaries could hurt the party’s efforts to win back the majority,” . . . CATALINA LAUF, a pro-Trump Republican primarying Rep. ADAM KINZINGER (R-Ill.) in 2022, at Mar-a-Lago on Thursday evening, in the latest sign that Trump is serious about challenging his House GOP antagonists. Kinzinger has been an outspoken critic of Trump, even forming a political action committee to support candidates who take stands opposing the former president. – Shia Kapos

Rep. Rodney Davis, R-Ill., excoriated the measure during a House hearing last week as “800 pages of election mandates and free speech regulations” that poses a “threat to democracy” and would “weaken voter confidence” in elections.)

— Poll shows most GOP voters back Trump 2024 bid – MAX GREENWOOD
https://thehill.com/homenews/campaign/541033-poll-shows-most-gop-voters-back-potential-trump-2024-bid
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The poll shows 52 percent of GOP voters back Trump, who has floated a potential comeback in 2024 after losing to President Biden in November. That makes him far and away the favorite for his party’s presidential nod; former Vice President Mike Pence placed second with 18 percent support, while former U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations Nikki Haley came in third with only 7 percent support. If Trump ultimately decides against another presidential bid, however, it’s Pence who picks up the most support, according to the poll. Forty-one percent of GOP voters surveyed said they prefer Pence for the nomination if Trump isn’t on the ballot. Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas) takes second place in that scenario, garnering 16 percent support, while Haley remains in third with the backing of 10 percent of GOP voters.)

— White House and press are at odds over plan to charge reporters for coronavirus testing – Paul Farhi
https://www.washingtonpost.com/lifestyle/media/white-house-press-covid-tests/2021/02/26/d623f316-7855-11eb-948d-19472e683521_story.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Reporters who cover the White House may soon be paying what amounts to an admission fee to do their jobs. Starting Monday, the White House’s press office said it will start charging journalists for coronavirus tests, which are required for anyone entering the White House grounds. The proposed cost for each test: $170. With dozens of journalists at the White House each day, the fees could add up to tens of thousands of dollars flowing from newsrooms, many of them small and cash-strapped, into government coffers. Until now, the cost of testing has been borne by the White House. But officials there contend that the cost of maintaining the testing regime for nearly a year has strained its budget. So it wants to shift the burden onto news organizations: No test, no entry to the White House. The plan has alarmed the White House Correspondents’ Association, which represents reporters in issues affecting the presidential press corps. The organization has objected to the proposal because of the financial burden it would impose on news organizations, especially smaller ones for whom a $170 daily fee would be onerous. “It sets up a means test for White House coverage,” said one correspondents’ association member familiar with the proposal, who spoke on the condition of anonymity because the policy hasn’t been formally announced. No other federal agency charges journalists a test fee, this person said. The fees would add up quickly for larger news organizations, too. The TV networks send as many as eight people a day to the White House grounds to report, produce and operate cameras and equipment. It would cost $1,360 a day to test an eight-person crew under the White House plan. News organizations collectively are limited to 80 people a day on the White House grounds because of coronavirus restrictions. This includes those working in the briefing room and workspaces behind it as well as those who maintain TV camera positions outside the Oval Office on the North Lawn. News organizations have long paid many of the costs of covering the White House. When reporters travel with the president on Air Force One, for example, they are billed by the White House for the trip. They also pay for temporary office space during presidential trips, and for meals when they accompany the president on “pool” duty assignments. But health and security measures have typically been the responsibility of the White House — in other words, taxpayers — not news organizations. “Nobody asked us to pay a fee to put up the fence,” said one journalist, referring to new security barriers around the White House complex. The White House Correspondents’ Association declined to comment, as did White House press secretary Jen Psaki. The tests would be administered under a contract with CVS Health. After prodding from the correspondents’ association, White House officials agreed this week to accept proof of an outside test as an alternative condition for entry. Private tests in the region range from around $50 to $200 or more, depending on the speed, location and method used. But it’s still unclear what kinds of outside tests would satisfy the White House. Some have suggested that making vaccinations available to White House reporters, or even requiring that journalists get vaccinations on their own, could resolve the daily testing issue. But scientists still aren’t certain whether vaccinated people can spread the coronavirus, even if they are immune to its symptoms. In another concession, the White House officials agreed to continue covering the costs of tests administered to pool reporters — those assigned to follow the president when he travels and for those attending daily press briefings. That would cover only a small number of reporters, however. Social-distancing rules adopted last year by the White House Correspondents’ Association limit the number of reporters attending the daily briefings to just 14 at a time.)

https://chicago.suntimes.com/columnists/2021/2/28/22306565/trump-attacks-rep-adam-kinzinger-other-republicans-who-backed-impeachment-cpac-speech-pac
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Kinzinger is raising money through his federal Future First PAC for his recently launched “Country First” campaign to drain Trump’s influence, fringe elements and conspiracy theory followers from the Republican Party. Donations to that Kinzinger Future First political war chest are subject to federal contribution caps. Allies of Kinzinger are creating “Americans Keeping Country First,” which will be able to take donations in unlimited sums. “Americans Keeping Country First is the only Super PAC dedicated exclusively to protecting Republican members who voted to impeach or convict” Trump, the group said. According to memos obtained by the Chicago Sun-Times, this super PAC, first disclosed by the Washington Post, will be “dedicated solely to defending the Republican members of Congress who took votes of conscience to impeach or convict President Trump after rioters stormed the Capitol complex on January 6th, 2021.” Even though this group cannot coordinate with Kinzinger’s political drives, he plans to headline events on its behalf where he will “promote” his Country First principles, the group said. This is allowed under Federal Election Commission rules. The goal, the group said, is to “build a potent political operation that provides a counterweight to far-right candidates and groups that threaten primary campaigns against principled House Republican members.” Ardent Trump backer Catalina Lauf announced a Kinzinger 2022 GOP primary challenge. Kinzinger has not made his 2022 plans known. . .Illinois GOP Party not pursuing Kinzinger censure Several Illinois county GOP organizations and the Chicago Republican Party have censured Kinzinger in the wake of his impeachment vote. The Chicago GOP party vote on Feb. 23 was among 34 ward committeemen; the organization has 16 of those 50 ward spots unfilled. What’s noteworthy is that the Illinois Republican Party is not pursuing a Kinzinger censure. According to the GOP party spokesman, the view of the new state GOP party chair, Don Tracy, is that the state party “will not be censuring Congressman Kinzinger. His goal is to unite the party and stop the circular firing squad.”)

https://www.latimes.com/politics/story/2021-02-28/trump-cpac-speech-get-rid-of-them-all
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Rep. Adam Kinzinger (R-Ill.), one of the pro-impeachment Republicans Trump singled out, said earlier in the day that the former president’s focus on retribution would continue to divide their party. “I think we are a party that’s been for too long peddling in fear, using fear as a compelling way to get votes. And fear does motivate,” he said in an interview on CBS’ “Face the Nation.” “But after a while, fear can destroy a country, can destroy narratives, and it can destroy a democracy,” he said. “And we have to quit peddling that.”)

MORNING BREW
— Why Publishers Put Up Paywalls. We know they can be a buzzkill; here’s why paywalls exist. – Eliza Carter (DIERSEN: www.gopillinois.com will never have a paywall or advertising. GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletter subscriptions will always be free and without advertising. Needless-to-say, my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes are furious about that. They are furious that I have the time, money, ability, and motivation to put together and send out a GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletter each and every morning and each and every evening.)
https://www.morningbrew.com/daily/stories/2021/02/05/publishers-put-paywalls
(FROM THE ARTICLE: At Morning Brew, frustrated readers email us all the time about getting blocked from reading content we’ve recommended in the newsletter, and as readers ourselves, we empathize. But I want to take a moment to explain why publishers put up paywalls—and unpack the economics a bit. First, the basics. Any publisher, from the New Yorker to Cracked, traditionally brings in revenue from either a) advertising or b) subscriptions. Advertising is great—Morning Brew built a tremendous ad-based business—but subscriptions can be steadier. If the economy takes a dip, ad spending usually does too. How do you drive subscriptions? Not by giving away content for free. Hence, paywalls.)

Previously, these haters promoted hatred against TAPROOT Republicans of Illinois and against the Illinois Center Right Coalition.)
http://mchenrycountyblog.com/2021/02/28/kinzinger022821/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: I’m excited to report our continued momentum and progress as more and more people learn about Country First and decide to join our movement. I’m also inspired by the huge number of unsolicited donations we’ve received from people across the political spectrum who want to see truth, courage, sanity, and decency return to our politics. It’s all incredibly encouraging, and I hope you are beginning to feel it, too. However, I know many are anxious about Donald Trump’s first big speech this Sunday. Many expect him to declare his intention to run for president again in 2024. Whether he says that or not, we know what else to expect: More lies about stolen elections, more vitriol for anyone who dares to criticize him, more self-aggrandizement, and more fear and conspiracy peddling. It will be more of the same. The great news is that Country First is ready to offer an alternate narrative: A hopeful, optimistic view of our future, where the politics of fear are rejected and reasonable people of goodwill can come together to actually solve problems. We know in our bones that America is better than this — and so it will be. On Sunday, we’ll be releasing a new video and doing multiple national interviews to draw a stark contrast between the Trump First and Country First visions for America. And once the video is out, I hope you’ll help me spread our positive message far and wide! In the meantime, I’m happy to announce that we’ve released the first episode of our podcast, which is called Country First Conversations. It will soon be available wherever you like to get your podcasts, but for now you can listen to it at our website or on Spotify. This week’s guest is Congressman Peter Meijer of Michigan [MI-03], who joined me in voting for impeachment. He’s a fellow veteran, and an all-around great guy, so I hope you’ll check it out. As a side note, we did broadcast our conversation live, in real-time via the Clubhouse Drop-In Audio App, where people who join the “room” can participate and ask questions. If that sounds interesting to you, check out the app and feel free to add me at @RepKinzinger so you can be part of the live conversation in the future. Finally, I want you to know we are pursuing every avenue and alliance that we believe will help spread the word about this movement and make a difference for our nation’s future. But our most powerful, potent resource will always be YOU. Please continue to talk to your family and friends, and make sure they know that ALL are welcome to take up this banner. It will require more than Republicans, Independents, or Democrats alone to heal this country — it will take good, reasonable people working together. And THAT, my friend, is why Country First already gives me so much hope. Thanks for reading this far, and stay tuned for Sunday. I’ll be sharing our new video with you, and can’t wait to hear what you think.)

For the left, over the past four years, a reporter has been an ally and a superhero comrade in the epic mission of destroying Donald Trump. Liberals lionized any cable hosts and runaway Republicans who blasted Trump, even if they had previously been on the G.O.P. payroll, selling the Iraq war and Sarah Palin. Let’s be honest. It’s a lot more pleasant to be hailed by the left than demonized, as you are during periods when you’re holding a Democratic president to account, because the left can be just as nasty as the right.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: Will progressives ever stop comparing conservatives to Nazis? That’s a question I’ve been asking myself for some time and I wouldn’t be surprised if other conservatives have wondered the same thing. In a sense, progressives and the liberal media seem hopelessly desperate to form some sort of pseudo-link between the Nazis and modern American conservatives. Indeed, it’s been a fruitless, pointless goal of theirs for many years, much to no avail. . .While I don’t like being compared to the Nazis, the comparison isn’t even an accurate one given the values and beliefs I and other conservatives hold. Indeed, I’d argue that conservatives are the polar opposite of the Nazis, officially known as the ‘National Socialist German Workers’ Party’. Did you catch that? Progressives don’t seem to like bringing up the Nazis’ full party name and they rarely do so. To the dismay of leftists, yes, the Nazis were indeed socialists. No, they weren’t “far-right” as many have claimed and I’d argue that fascism, socialism and communism are all on the very far-left end of the political spectrum. Compare the hateful, totalitarian and genocidal rhetoric of the Nazis to the values held by conservatives. Conservatives value tradition, religion, practicality, commonsense, limited government, a lasting preservation of our Constitutional rights and an emphasis on individuality and liberty. That hardly mirrors the conformist, hateful and dictatorial views of the Nazis or any other left-wing factions. The far-left (Nazis included) has totalitarianism embedded in its very being. In contrast, conservatives are some of the least totalitarian people you’ll meet. So how should we remedy this persistent problem of progressives comparing us to Nazis? Well, we can certainly argue with facts and logic but some will pointlessly keep trying to compare us to Nazis or other historically-evil groups. Their minds are made up so the best thing we can do is roll our eyes, have a good laugh and provide brief rebuttals if we deem it necessary. To conclude, no, conservatives aren’t Nazis or even remotely similar to Nazis. ANTIFA on the other hand…Well, that’s a different story.)

POLITICO
— When the Left Attacked the Capitol Fifty years ago, extremists bombed the seat of American democracy to end a war and start a revolution. It did neither, but it may have helped bring down a president. – LAWRENCE ROBERTS (DIERSEN: What did you do in 1971? I lived with my mother and brother in Crete. My father had died suddenly in October of 1969. I started the year working as the Retail Sales Manager for the Firestone Store in Chicago Heights, taking a graduate business management course at UIC, and awaiting a decision on my application for a financial hardship draft deferment. That application was approved, and because of my draft lottery number, I was no longer subject to the draft. I believe that prompted Oldsmobile to offer me a job which I accepted. But when I told my Firestone boss, he immediately and rudely fired me. But then, Oldsmobile withdrew its job offer saying that it had just agreed to stop hiring Whites to settle an EEOC complaint. That directly resulted in my accepting a job offer from IRS to be a GS-7 (currently $48,445/year) Revenue Officer in Chicago. But then, my Firestone boss offered me a part-time job pumping gasoline which I accepted. Before I started working for IRS and working part-time for Firestone, I went on a spring break vacation in the Bahamas. My 1969 Dodge Charger SE was stolen in Chicago in August. That directly resulted in my buying a new 1972 Corvette and a 1962 Chevy Bel Air for everyday use. At the end of the year, IRS granted my request to be assigned to its Harvey office.)
