— Aaron del Mar is stepping down as co-chair of the Illinois Republican Party after the New Year. It’s not a surprise.

— Leaders of the Milton Township Democrat Organization stress the qualifications of their township candidates. Since 2000, extremely few of the leaders of the Milton Township Republican Organization have stressed my qualifications. In fact, many if not most, if not virtually all of them have ignored, dismissed, belittled, if not badmouthed my qualifications. 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 $115,439-$150,075/year. I worked for IRS as a Revenue Officer for almost 9 years, the last 5 1/2 years of which at the GS-12 Step 1-5 Levels, currently $97,079-$110,020/year. I passed the CPA and Certified Internal Auditor examinations on my first attempt and became a licensed CPA. I have four other job-related professional certifications (fraud examination, government financial management, financial services auditing, and forensic accounting). I have master’s degrees in business, accounting, and finance. – Dave Diersen

If I was still working, that is, if my Democrat GAO superiors had not forced me to retire when I was 49 in 1997, a) I would not have gotten $1.8 million in CSRS pension payments since 1997 in today’s dollars and b) I would have paid into CSRS $286,262 in today’s dollar.)

https://nypost.com/2024/12/04/us-news/trump-announces-picks-for-irs-sec-nasa-and-a-new-hostage-affairs-envoy/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Former Rep. Billy Long (R-Mo.) was announced as Trump’s pick to lead the Internal Revenue Service. Long, a 69-year-old certified auctioneer, represented Missouri’s 7th congressional district from 2011 to 2023. He has worked as a business and tax adviser since leaving office, assisting small businesses “navigate the complexities of complying with the IRS Rules and Regulations.” “Billy brings 32 years of experience running his own businesses in Real Estate and, as one of the premier Auctioneers in the Country,” Trump said of the incoming IRS commissioner. “Taxpayers and the wonderful employees of the IRS will love having Billy at the helm,” the president-elect added. “He is the consummate ‘people person,’ well respected on both sides of the aisle.”)

During that time, I bought a new 1972 Corvette, a new town home, and a studio condo and I completed 12 graduate business courses at Loyola. Also 1976-1981 when I earned an MBA from Loyola, bought a one bedroom condo, got married and bought a home in Wheaton, passed the CPA examination on my first attempt, earned a master’s degree in accounting from DePaul, passed the Certified Internal Auditor examination on my first attempt, and became a licensed CPA. Also, 1986-1988 when GAO assigned me to audits of IRS and promoted me to GS-13 (currently $115,439/year). When were your bad old days? Mine include 1974 when my Democrat IRS superiors disallowed my travel vouchers and 1978 when then they disallowed my education deductions and after 1974 when they refused to promote me to GS-13. They include 1980 when my Democrat GAO superiors forced me to suffer a $22,996/year pay cut in today’s dollars to transfer from IRS to GAO. They include 1980-1985 when they refused to assign me to audits of IRS, delayed my promotions, and refused to promote me to GS-13. They include 1989-1997 when they kept me off audits of IRS, always ranked me in the bottom half of my coworkers for pay-for-performance purposes, and forced me to retire when I was 49 years old.)

Under him, GAO shrank from over 6,000 employees to under 3,000. GAO is less than a shell of what it once was. Its employees who conservative, Republican, White, male, older, Protestant, German American, and/or had ancestors who had been in America for a long time were gotten rid of and replaced with employees who were liberal, Democrat, minority, female, younger, non-Protestant, non-German American, and/or had ancestors who had not been in America for a long time.

— When Republican candidates on ballots in your precinct lose elections, who blames who for that? Since 2000, my critics/opponents in the Milton Township Republican Organization, DuPage County Republican Central Committee, and Illinois Republican Party have blamed me and have blamed my GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters for losses suffered my Republican candidates on ballots in my DuPage County Milton Township precinct in Wheaton. They hint/imply/argue/shout a) that I paint the candidates in my newsletters as being far more conservative than they are and that causes them to lose elections and b) that I include links to articles in my newsletters that they do not like. I should write about my critics/opponents. I would focus on those who have had their operatives and dupes take the most/biggest adverse actions against me recently. – Dave Diersen

— Law enforcement is one of America’s hottest jobs right now (COMMENT: IRS enforces federal tax laws. I was an IRS Revenue Officer for almost 9 years, the last 5 1/2 years of which at the GS-12 Step 1-5 Levels, currently $97,079-$110,020/year.)
https://www.cnn.com/2024/09/09/business/job-market-law-enforcement/index.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Police departments and sheriff’s offices across are clamoring for new recruits after grappling with a sharp drop in applicants and a wave of retirements after George Floyd’s murder in 2020 caused many to be wary of working for a police force, recruiters told CNN. . .The average salary of a police officer climbed more than 37% in the first eight months of this year compared to the same time last year, according to ZipRecruiter data provided to CNN. That’s a recent sign of strong demand for police officers, because from 2022 to 2023 the average salary for policing jobs rose by roughly 8%. “Police departments are trying hard to make the role more attractive after suffering a recruitment and retention crisis,” said ZipRecruiter Chief Economist Julia Pollak. She added that there’s also been a huge spike in job postings on ZipRecruiter listing “law enforcement” as a desired skill. While a police officer may be a steady job, it’s important to note that it usually requires a months-long training process (typically paid), as well as an extensive background check.)

— Who are the millions of Britons not working, and why? (COMMENT: Because my Democrat GAO superiors forced me to retire early, I have not worked since I was 49 years old in 1997. I gave up searching for jobs appropriate for someone with my work experience, professional certifications, and professional license long ago because potential employers were turned off by the many adverse actions that my Democrat GAO superiors had taken against me. In addition to forcing me to retire early, they had a) delayed my promotions and never promoting me beyond GS-13, b) always ranked me in the bottom half of my coworkers for pay-for-performance purposes, and c) forced me to take a $22,996 (21%) pay cut in today’s dollars to transfer from IRS to GAO. Further they were turned off by my bad demographics, my having complained about political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, and age discrimination, and my having sued my GAO superiors for the aforesaid. Thankfully, my wife and I could afford the $84,910/year loss in income in today’s dollars that I suffered a) because of my wife’s income, b) because of my $65,165/year federal pension in today’s dollars, c) because the federal government pays 72% of our health insurance premiums, and d) because we have no debts or dependents.)

— Ever-increasingly, under the Democrats and under the RINOs, men are falling further and further and further behind women academically, career-wise, and financially. Will Trump stop that decline? All my female coworkers who my Democrat superiors promoted over me were Democrats who had less work experience than I had, had less education than I had, had no professional certifications or fewer than I had, and/or had no professional license like the one I had.

Familiarize yourself with the forms
To initiate a background investigation, your sponsoring agency will ask you to complete one or more of these forms: the Questionnaire for National Security Positions (SF 86) ( https://www.opm.gov/forms/pdf_fill/sf86.pdf ) or the Questionnaire for Public Trust Positions (SF 85P) ( https://www.opm.gov/forms/pdf_fill/sf85p.pdf ), depending on how your position may affect national security and other sensitive matters such as government finance and technology. The government is in the process of consolidating these forms into one Personnel Vetting Questionnaire. It may take weeks to gather your records and complete, and longer if you have significant foreign travel. Get started early!)

They were especially furious when IRS promoted me instead of Blacks in 1972, 1973, and 1974 and GAO promoted me instead of a Black in 1986. They were overjoyed when GAO forced me to retire in 1997 and gave my job and my preferred corner office to my Black subordinate. I should write a book about the aforesaid.

ILLINOIS REVIEW
— IL GOP Support Proves Again to be the ‘Kiss of Death’ Even During a Trump-Dominated, Historic Election Cycle
https://www.illinoisreview.com/illinoisreview/2024/11/il-gop-support-proves-again-to-be-the-kiss-of-death-even-during-a-trump-dominated-historic-election-cycle.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: It wasn’t that long ago when IL GOP leaders were endorsing Fl. Gov. Ron DeSantis’ failed presidential bid, hosting ‘Never Trumpers’ at fundraisers in Naples, Florida; naming anti-MAGA officials as gala co-chairs and blaming President Donald Trump for Illinois election losses in 2020 and 2022. When Trump secured the Republican nomination for president last Spring, those same officials were silent. But that’s not all. When this publication revealed that a party leader in 2016 compared Donald Trump to Adolf Hitler – IL GOP officials were once again silent. This pattern, however, should come as no surprise. In 2022, IL GOP officials backed Richard Irvin’s failed campaign for Illinois governor. During the primary campaign, it was reported by WTTW’s Paris Schutz that in 2018, Irvin sent text messages calling Trump an “idiot” and a “bigoted racist.” Irvin also texted the friend, “I hate Trump too!” Irvin would lose the primary to the Trump-endorsed candidate by 43 points. During Republican Day at the Illinois State Fair last year, then Illinois Republican national committeeman Richard Porter gave an interview to the Chicago Tribune and said that Trump couldn’t win independent voters in swing states in 2024 and that he was running for president to avoid going to jail. “I think the most ardent Trumpers recognize that they might love him in their heart, but they know in their head he is not going to win independents in Georgia, Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, Michigan, New Hampshire, Arizona and Nevada. And that’s what you need to do to become president. And if you don’t become president of the United States, Trump goes to jail.” After this publication ran a story on his reported comments, Porter was in damage control, offering a long explanation to try and repair the damage – but it was too little, too late. And during the 2024 election, Trump would win every swing state proving Porter to be wrong once again. And former Illinois House Republican leader Jim Durkin – who is revered and respected by IL GOP leaders – likes to blame Trump for every Republican loss in Illinois. In November 2023, Durkin announced that he was not going to run for Cook County State’s Attorney and he blamed President Trump for his decision not to throw his hat in the race. “I know that if you’re going to run in a race, you have to run knowing that you have a good chance of winning, and I see no path winning with Trump at the top of the ticket [in 2024],” Durkin told CBS Chicago anchor Brad Edwards. In the Spring of 2022, IL GOP leaders traveled down to Naples, Florida to host a private reception featuring former US Attorney General Bill Baar, who served as AG under the George HW Bush and Donald Trump presidential administrations. Baar remains critical of Trump, and in November of 2022, he published a scathing opinion piece in the New York Post, writing, “Unless the rest of the party goes along with him, he will burn the whole house down by leading ‘his people’ out of the GOP. Trump’s willingness to destroy the party if he does not get his way is not based on principle, but on his own supreme narcissism. His egoism makes him unable to think of a political party as anything but an extension of himself – a cult of personality.” During this past election cycle where Trump dominated and made history winning both the popular and electoral votes by historic margins – and Republicans took control of the U.S. Senate and maintained control of the U.S. House – IL GOP leaders once again proved why their support is the ‘kiss of death.’ In District 10, Democrat U.S. Rep. Brad Schneider smoked Republican Jim Carris – who was the darling of the IL GOP, by 20 points – the largest margin of defeat of any congressional candidate. Illinois Republican leaders came out strong for Carris in ways not seen with other pro-MAGA candidates – as Carris had the support of the IL GOP establishment and leaders like IL GOP co-chair Kathy Salvi and national committeeman Dean White. Carris even appeared alongside Turning Point USA founder Charlie Kirk at a private event where the two shared the stage. Carris is pro-choice and refused to vocalize any support of Trump during his failed congressional campaign. “I’ve done a lot of research on this and studied and really given it a lot of thought and I am a pro-choice candidate,” Carris told a group in Winnetka, Illinois on June 6, 2024. During that same event, Carris refused to offer support for Trump when asked – who at the time was the presumptive Republican nominee for President, saying, “I am an independent person. I will decide when the time comes, but I’m concerned about my own campaign at this point…rather than be worried about the national election.” Carris was also endorsed by former U.S. Sen. Mark Kirk (IL), who is a Never Trumper – and called him “one of my political heroes…I can’t tell you how meaningful this is to me.” During the 2016 national GOP convention, many IL GOP leaders, including then Gov. Rauner, former Gov. Jim Edgar, US Sen. Mark Kirk and Rauner-appointed Comptroller Leslie Munger, skipped the convention because they did not support Trump. Kirk even ran an ad that said that Trump was not “fit to be Commander in Chief.” Across Illinois, state Democratic leaders maintained their super majority control as Republicans failed to flip any seats despite this being a historic Republican year with Trump at the top of the ticket. Democrats in the state House maintain the largest majority over Republicans in Illinois history. So what’s the key takeaway? IL GOP leaders and their cadre of failed political consultants have proven that like the Chicago Bears – they can find creative ways to lose and snatch defeat out of the jaws of victory. But what can you expect? It’s in their DNA.)

I should write about my critics/opponents. I would focus on those whose parents had lots of money, who bought them cars, who paid for their college expenses, and who got them jobs.)

WORD & WAY
— What Congress Reveals About Lutheran Denominations (COMMENT: In 1961, when I was in 8th grade, Trinity Lutheran Church and Grade School in Crete left the Missouri Synod for the Wisconsin Synod. To stay with the Missouri Synod, my parents joined Hope Lutheran Church in Park Forest and transferred me to a newly formed 8th grade there. That ended my parents’ annual family reunions that had been held for many decades. That had a major impact on me.)
https://wordandway.org/2024/08/15/what-congress-reveals-about-lutheran-denominations/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Among the current 532 members of Congress (there are three open House seats at the moment), Republicans have a narrow majority with 51% of the seats. The partisan divide among Lutheran members in Congress depends on which denomination. Of the 20 Lutheran members identified, 12 belong to the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America that Walz is part of, while 7 are in the more conservative Lutheran Church—Missouri Synod. One other member, Republican Sen. Ron Johnson of Wisconsin, is part of the Wisconsin Evangelical Lutheran Synod, which is smaller and more conservative than the other two bodies. . .The members of the 118th Congress show which Lutheran denominations in public life have the most partisan leaning. Only the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America has a bipartisan delegation, while the Lutheran Church—Missouri Synod and the Wisconsin Evangelical Lutheran Synod currently only send Republicans to Congress.)

— Walmart’s DEI rollback signals a profound shift in the wake of Trump’s election victory (COMMENT: If American Presidents had been like Trump when I was young, my Democrat superiors in the federal government would have promoted me into their Senior Executive Service long before I was 40 years old years old notwithstanding a) my not earning an MBA until I was 27, b) my not passing the CPA examination until I was 30, c) my not earning a master’s degree in accounting until I was 31, and d) my not passing the Certified Internal Auditor examination and becoming a licensed CPA util I was 32.)

— Newly improved FAFSA student aid application released following last year’s technical woes (COMMENT: Did you apply for financial aid? I did not because my father earned too much money – $50,000/year in today’s dollars. Did you apply for an academic scholarship? I did not because my ACT score was only 24 and I only just barely made it into the upper 20% of my class. Instead, I washed dishes part-time for the S.S. Kresge in Chicago Heights at $12.41/hour in today’s dollars and saved all the money that I could to pay for my college expenses at UIC and for a new 1966 Pontiac Tempest Sprint to commute to/from classes and parents’ home in Crete. Things got better financially when I started working part-time for the Park Forest Post Office in November of 1966 at $18.99/hour in today’s dollars. But my GPA suffered because instead of studying, I worked all the hours that I could delivering mail.)

— How thankful are you? According to my critics/opponents, I have never been thankful enough. They have always attributed all my successes in life to my benefitting from discrimination against those who share their demographics: liberal/moderate, minority, female, younger, LGBTQ, veteran, non-Protestant, non-German American, and/or have ancestors who have not been in America for a long time. In my defense, I stress that neither of my parents attended college, my father was only the first of my ancestors to earn a high school diploma, my mother never attended high school, and I had to work my way through college. I should write about my critics/opponents. I would focus on those who have lots of religious, government, political, and/or financial clout in Wheaton, Milton Township, DuPage County, and Illinois and have their operative and their dupes take many big adverse actions against me. I would focus on those whose parents had lots of money and bought them cars, paid for their college expenses, and got them jobs. – Dave Diersen

(FROM THE ARTICLE: Former Rep. Joe Walsh (R-IL) slammed tech billionaire and Donald Trump ally Elon Musk for publicly naming examples of government employees he will target for elimination. “Shame on anyone who doesn’t have a problem with the wealthiest man on the planet publicly sharing the individual names of government employees he wants fired,” wrote Walsh, who went from being a Tea Party activist to one of the most outspoken conservative opponents of Trump. “Calling them out by name. Disgusting. Dangerous.” Musk, who helped Trump run critical sections of his campaign in the election and now heads up a MAGA task force on how to cut government spending, made the threats against specific employees earlier this week, according to CNN.)

— Musk’s DOGE May Cut These Federal Agencies (COMMENT: Republicans ever-increasingly cut GAO while I worked for the Democrats who ran the agency 1980-1997. They ever-increasingly took their anger at Republicans out on me, one of the few Republicans in the agency. I should write a book about that. They forced me to suffer a $22,996 (21%) pay cut in today’s dollars to transfer from IRS to GAO. They delayed my promotions and never promote me beyond GS-13 even though I had earned a master’s degree in accounting from DePaul in 1980 and passed the Certified Internal Auditor examination and became a licensed CPA in 1981. They keep me off audits of IRS until 1986 when the GAO manager who had arranged for my transfer was finally able to assign me to audits of IRS and to promote me to GS-13. But in 1987, they forced him to retire, and in 1989, they threw me off audits of IRS forever, gave me an very bad job assignment, gave me very unfair performance expectations, gave me a very unfair performance appraisal, and ranked me at the bottom of my coworkers for pay-for-performance (PFP) purposes. They never again assigned me to audits of IRS, they always ranked me in the bottom half of my coworkers for PFP purposes, and they forced me to retire in 1997 even though I had earned job-related professional certifications in 1990, 1994, 1996, and 1997 and a job-related master’s degree in 1997.)

In my defense, I stress that neither of my parents attended college, my father was only the first of my ancestors to earn a high school diploma, my mother never attended high school, and I had to work my way through college. I should write about my critics/opponents. I would focus on those who have lots of religious, government, political, and/or financial clout in Wheaton, Milton Township, DuPage County, and Illinois and have had their operatives and dupes take many big adverse actions against me. I would focus on those whose parents had lots of money and bought them cars, paid for their college expenses, and got them jobs.)

— Five things to make the Air Force, which has struggled with wokeness, recruitment, and declining standards, great again. (COMMENT: While I worked for the Democrats who ran GAO 1980-1997, the agency ever-increasingly declined. The agency ever-increasingly dumped meritocracy. Its top priority ever-increasingly became hiring, retaining, and promoting Democrats who were minority, female, younger, veteran, non-Protestant, non-German American, and/or had ancestors who had not been in America for a long time. That ever-increasingly rendered worthless my work experience, my three master’s degrees, my six professional certifications, and my professional license.)
https://www.nationalreview.com/2024/11/lets-make-the-air-force-academy-soar-once-more/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Whether it’s the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff stating in a congressional hearing that he hopes to understand his “white rage,” or an official memorandum about establishing “aspirational” race and sex quotas for officers, it’s clear that partisan ideology has supplanted competency as the defining attribute of our current military’s leaders. Nowhere has this leftward shift been more apparent than at the United States Air Force Academy and its newfound obsession with indoctrinating cadets in woke, anti-American ideology.

— 6 signs you’ll be a ‘late bloomer’ in your career (COMMENT: Were you a late bloomer? Not that I was ever a bloomer, I certainly was late. I did not earn an MBA until I was 27. I did not take and pass the CPA examination until I was 30. I did not earn a master’s degree in accounting until I was 31. I did not take and pass the Certified Internal Auditor examination and become a licensed CPA until I was 32. By then, because of my bad demographics, the accounting profession viewed me as being far too old to have a successful career in accounting. In retrospect, with benefit of hindsight, I should majored in accounting from the beginning.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: Jonathan Baron, founder of Baron Public Affairs and host of “The Political Risk Brief,” said the emergence of this powerful conservative media ecosystem allowed Trump to bypass traditional outlets. His firm analyzed more than 16,000 references from Trump, Vice President-elect JD Vance, and 40 key advisers to identify the top influencers who make up this pro-Trump network. Baron’s firm then separated them into three groups of influencers—amplifiers, specialists, and mavericks—who are categorically anti-establishment. He spoke with The Daily Signal about his firm’s groundbreaking research and how these powerful influencers will shape campaigns and policymaking in the future.

CHIEF EXECUTIVE
— What Trump’s Win Means For Labor And Employment Law (COMMENT: How has EEOC impacted you? When I was 22 years old in 1971, Oldsmobile withdrew a job offer that I had accepted saying that it had just agreed to stop hiring Whites to settle an EEOC complaint. My Firestone Store boss rudely fired me because I had accepted that offer. Because I had to have a job, I accepted a job offer from IRS.)
https://chiefexecutive.net/what-trumps-win-means-for-labor-and-employment-law/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: President Trump will likely tap current EEOC commissioner Andrea Lucas to serve as chair. As with the NLRB, however, Lucas will find herself outnumbered by Democratic members on the Commission, three to one – a situation that will likely continue for some time. Upon attaining a Republican majority, the Commission may seek to roll back the collection of workplace demographic data and limit the agency’s interpretation of Title VII regarding protection for LGBTQ+ workers. An EEOC under Trump likely will also take a narrower view of what’s permissible under DEI initiatives.)

https://www.eeoc.gov/laws/guidance/questions-and-answers-enforcement-guidance-retaliation-and-related-issues
(FROM THE POSTING: What if the employer claims its challenged action was not motivated by retaliation? In many cases, an employer will present a non-retaliatory reason for the challenged action. The employer may assert that it acted for a legitimate and unrelated reason such as poor job performance, misconduct, or the individual’s lack of qualifications for the job. An employee may respond to these assertions by providing evidence that the employer’s explanation is actually a pretext for retaliation. If an employer’s explanation is shown to be false, a factfinder may infer retaliation.)

— Hate-filled Trump-hating Trump-hates say that “Republicans don’t have a mandate.” Illinois RINO leaders reject not only Trump, they reject the Republican Party platform. Those RINOs stress that while Trump got 2.4 million votes in Illinois, Harris got 3 million. Those RINOs stress that while Trump got 191,000 votes in DuPage County, Harris got 251,000. Those RINOs want the Illinois Republican Party (IRP) to officially become the Illinois Democrat Lite Party. Those RINOs want the IRP to officially dump conservatives, that is, to officially dump the base of the IRP.

— If you were me, what would you do to encourage the following to read my GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters: a) leaders of the Illinois Republican Party, DuPage County Republican Central Committee, and Milton Township Republican Organization, b) Republican leaders of Illinois, DuPage County, Milton Township, Wheaton, Wheaton Park District, and Wheaton Chamber of Commerce, c) Republican candidates on ballots in my precinct, d) conservative leaders and activists, and e) religious leaders and activists? Since 2000, many of the aforesaid have taken many big adverse actions against me to stop me from sending out my newsletters and to stop everyone from reading them. They blame me and they blame my newsletters for their problems, for your problems, for my problems, and for everyone’s problems. – Dave Diersen
http://www.gopillinois.com
— All my employers were run by Democrats. QUESTION: Why did they gamble and lose that I would become a Democrat? ANSWER: Neither of my parents attended college. My father was only the first of my ancestors to earn a high school diploma. My mother never attended high school. My parents rejected leaving the Missouri Synod for the more conservative Wisconsin Synod. I was not viewed as being college material. I had to work my way through college. My Democrat superiors knew that I wanted to advance my career and they knew that I knew that you have to be a Democrat to advance your career. – Dave Diersen
http://www.gopillinois.com
— How would your life been different if you had been a Democrat? If I had been a Democrat, my Democrat Post Office, IRS, and GAO superiors would not have taken the many big adverse actions against me that they did notwithstanding my being White, male, non-veteran, Protestant, German American, my ancestors have been in America since 1844, my living in Crete 1948-1972 and my living in Wheaton since 1978. Instead, they would have promoted me into their Senior Executive Service long before I was 40 years old. I say that a) because I earned a job-related bachelor’s degree when I was 21 and job-related master’s degrees when I was 27, 31, and 48, b) because I earned job-related professional certifications when I was 30, 32, 41, 44, 47, and 48, and c) because I earned a job-related professional license when I was 32. – Dave Diersen
http://www.gopillinois.com
— Politics is nasty/vicious. Government is nasty/vicious. What is your hometown? My hometown is Crete. I lived in Crete 1948-1972. I should write a book about my critics/opponents in Wheaton, Milton Township, DuPage County, and Illinois who have demonized, denigrated, and condemned Crete the most as having been full of German American Lutherans while I lived there who were White supremacists, Nazis, KKK members, haters, racists, sexists, bigots, and even worse things. They stress that I am 100% German American and that I was baptized, raised, and confirmed as a Missouri Synod Lutheran while I lived in Crete. – Dave Diersen
http://www.gopillinois.com
— Political parties exist to help elect candidates who can and will defend and advance their platform. The Republican Party platform is conservative. QUESTION: What will it take to make the leaders of the Illinois Republican Party (IRP) start defending and advancing the Republican Party platform? ANSWER: Direct election of IRP State Central Committee (SCC) members. My many critics/opponents in the IRP, DuPage County Republican Central Committee, and Milton Township Republican Organization have always vehemently opposed direct election of IRP SCC members. I should write a book about the many big adverse actions that they have taken against me because I promote direct election of IRP SCC members. – Dave Diersen
