MSNBC
— Democrats ever-increasingly use White supremacists and their victims to promote hatred against Republicans. But far worse, Democrats ever-increasingly call Republicans White supremacists. To call someone a White supremacist in America today is like calling someone a Jew in Germany during the 1930s and 1940s. That is forcing more and more and more Republicans to buy firearm and ammunition for their self-defense.

TAMPA BAY TIMES
— Democrats say “DeSantis roundtable hammers diversity programs at Florida universities. Led by the governor, members of the panel say the programs lower standards and devalue merit.” Because I am a White male, and further, because I am non-veteran, Protestant, and 100% German American, if there had been more pressure to admit minorities and females in the past, a) UIC would not have admitted me in 1966, b) NIU in 1969, c) Loyola in 1972, d) DePaul in 1976, and e) IIT in 1992. I only just barely made it into the upper 20% of my 1966 Crete-Monee High School class and my ACT score was only 24.

In retrospect, with benefit of hindsight, accounting would have my NIU and Loyola majors. Financial markets and trading was my IIT major solely because my Democrat GAO superiors assigned me to audits of federal financial industry regulators starting in 1990.

Because of those policies, a) while I worked only part-time for the Post Office 1966-1969, I earned full-time seniority and 1 hour of sick leave for every 20 hours that I worked, b) when I started working for IRS in 1971, my unused sick leave from my postal employment was reinstated, started earning 13 sick days a year, and I soon earned 13 vacation days a year, c) I started earning 26 vacation days a year when I was a GAO employee in 1983, and d) my Civil Service Retirement System pension in higher because I my many unused sick leave days were credited as though I had worked them.

Chaos erupted at the southern border Sunday as hundreds of migrants unsuccessfully attempted to enter into the United States through a crossing that links Mexico and Texas.

COLLEGE FIX
— Concordia University in Ann Arbor portrays itself as being conservative and devoted to its theological beliefs, but in reality, it pushes a woke agenda. – MATT LAMB (COMMENT: The university is affiliated with Missouri Synod. My ancestors on my father’s side were members of the Missouri Synod Trinity Lutheran Church in Crete since 1854. But in 1961, when my father was one of the church’s leaders and I was in the 8th grade in its grade school, the church and its school left the Missouri Synod for the more conservative Wisconsin Synod. Because of that, to stay with the Missouri Synod, my parents transferred to Hope Lutheran Church in Park Forest and enrolled me in the church’s grade school. They had me confirmed as Missouri Synod Lutheran in 1962. I should write a book about religious discrimination. I would focus on those who have viciously demonized me, viciously denigrated me, and viciously condemned me the most as being too conservative. I would focus on those who have/had lots of religious, government, political, and/or financial clout in Wheaton, in Milton Township, in DuPage County, and Illinois. I would focus on those who have taken the most/biggest adverse actions against me. In my defense, I have often stressed that the Missouri Synod is less conservative than the Wisconsin Synod and that my wife of 45 years was baptized, raised, and confirmed as a Catholic and that she has always been a devote Catholic.)

THE HILL
— Democrats acknowledge that “As Werfel begins his tenure, there are still many questions as to how he intends to rectify many of the IRS’ numerous shortcomings, especially amid questions about political influence on the agency.” I was one of the last Republicans that IRS and GAO hired. I should write a book about how IRS and GAO act as arms of the Democrat Party. I would focus on the patronage, political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, age discrimination, religious discrimination, and national origin discrimination in those agencies. In my book, I would draw on a) my almost 9 years of experience working for IRS, the last 5 1/2 years of which at the GS-12 Step 1-5 Levels, currently $92,279-$104,583/year, b) my working for GAO on audits of IRS for 3 years at the GS-13 Step 1-3 levels, currently $109,732-$117,047/year, and c) my working for GAO for almost 18 years, the last 11 years of which at the GS-13 Step 1-10 Levels, currently $109,732-$142,650/year. I would focus on how IRS and GAO wasted my federal career, took many adverse actions against me, and forced me to retire when I was 49 years old.

— According to the Illinois Freedom Caucus, “Jim Durkin’s strategy of offering voters a ‘Democrat Lite’ agenda has been a colossal failure. Our party needs bold leadership if we ever hope to get out of the super minority.” SEE: https://abc7chicago.com/jim-durkin-illinois-house-republican-resigning/12678017/ My critics/opponents in the Illinois Republican Party (IRP), DuPage County Republican Central Committee (DCRCC), and Milton Township Republican Organization (MTRO) want Democrat Lite. They want the IRP to officially dump the individual responsibility, traditional marriage/family, right to life, immigration, Second Amendment, illegal drugs, and equal opportunity (no race or gender based preference giving) planks in the Republican Party platform. They want the IRP, DCRCC, and MTRO to officially dump conservatives, that is, to officially dump platform Republicans, that is, to officially dump the base of the Republican Party, that is, to officially destroy the IRP, DCRCC, and MTRO. – Dave Diersen

In her February 14, 2023 memorandum to DuPage County Board Members, DuPage County Board Chair Deborah Conroy announced her “Precinct Re-Map Timeline.” Like my critics/opponents did in 2015, I fully expect that they will again draw me into the same precinct with Jeanne Ives. My current precinct outrageously includes homes in three (west, east, and south) of Wheaton’s four districts.)

April 11th – The revised precinct map will be presented at the Finance Committee meeting for additional feedback. During this meeting, a Public Hearing will be held to seek input from community members. April 12th thru May 8th – The proposed precinct maps will be placed on the County Board website for public comment and review. During this time, the maps will be printed and posted within the 421 building to allow members of the public to view the proposed maps.

— Illinois bill would require personal finance course in high school – Glenn Minnis (COMMENT: What did you know about personal finance when you were in high school? Neither of my outstanding parents attended college, my father was only the first of my ancestors to earn a high school diploma, and my mother never attended high school. I only just barely made it into the upper 20% of my 1966 Crete-Monee High School (CMHS) class and my ACT score was only 24. I knew that because of the aforesaid, because of my parents’ limited income, because of my bad demographics (conservative, Republican, White, male, non-veteran, Protestant, 100% German American, and my ancestors had been in America since 1844), and because of my health problems (I could not run because I had Osgood-Schlatter disease (SEE: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Osgood%E2%80%93Schlatter_disease ), my vision could not be corrected to 20/20, and I had partial red-green color blindness), to earn a college degree, I would have to commute to college classes from my parents’ home in Crete and I would have to work my way through college. To be able to take classes at UIC instead of at Prairie State College ( https://prairiestate.edu/ ), I washed dishes in the basement of the S.S. Kresge in Chicago Heights during my junior and senior years and the summer in between and I used the money that I earned to buy a new 1966 Pontiac Tempest Sprint to commute to/from jobs and classes at UIC. While I was a freshman and sophomore at CMHS, my plan was to enlist and use the G.I. Bill to get a college degree. But one of my CMHS classmates stressed that I was in the upper 20% of our class and that my having an ACT score of 24, and he encouraged me to reconsider.)

So they falsely hint/imply/argue/shout that I have the aforesaid because my parents were filthy rich, because I avoided the draft, because the federal government grossly overpaid me, because my wife and I gave up trying to have children, because we did not adopt, because we did not become foster parents, and because I benefitted tremendously from discrimination against minorities, against females, against younger people, against veterans, against non-Protestants, against non-German Americans, and/or against those whose ancestors have not been in America for a long time. And if all of the aforesaid is not enough, they hint/imply/argue/shout that I got all my successes in life by being a “bad person.” Again, I should write a book about my critics/opponents who have had the most success in making their operatives and their dupes envious of me. I would focus on those who have lots of religious, government, political, and/or financial clout in Wheaton, Milton Township, in DuPage County, and/or Illinois. I would focus on those who I have sued. I would focus on those who have taken the most/biggest adverse actions against me.

CENTRAL ILLINOIS PROUD & WAND TV
— Democrats say that Gingrich tweets that “Florida blogger registration bill ‘insane.” The bill only applies to those who are paid to write. He who pays the piper calls the tunes. Who pays Gingrich to write what he writes and how much? I should write a book about a) those who pay my critics/opponents and b) how much they pay them. I would focus on those who claim to be religious, conservative, and/or Republican. While I worked for the Democrats who ran IRS 1971-1980 and GAO 1980-1997, I had to report to them annually a) the source of my outside income (Firestone Stores in 1971 and 1972) and b) the source of my wife’s income. Because they always had full access to my federal income tax returns, they knew what the amounts were. Again, he who pays the piper calls the tunes. No one pays me for what I do as your GOPUSA Illinois Editor. My income is my Civil Service Retirement System pension and my Social Security.

WJOL
— Democrats say “Illinois Promoting New Initiative To Address Teacher Shortage.” The Democrats who ran GAO in 1980, IRS in 1971, and the Post Office in 1966 hired me because they could not find a qualified Democrat who would take the jobs. They were so desperate that they hired me even those I was non-veteran, conservative, Protestant (baptized, raised, and confirmed as a Missouri Synod Lutheran), 100% German American, my ancestors had been in America since 1844, a Crete resident 1948-1972, and a Wheaton resident since 1978. They wrongly anticipated that with enough pressure, I would become a Democrat. They wrongly gave too much weight to the fact a) that neither of my parents attended college, b) that my father was only the first of my ancestors to earn a high school diploma, c) that my mother never attended high school, d) that I was a union member while I worked for the Post Office 1966-1969 and for IRS 1971-1980, and e) that the adverse actions that they started taking against me in 1968 would work.

My father never earned more than $50,000/year in today’s dollars. He almost always worked second jobs to pay the family’s bills.

WASHINGTON TIMES
— Bad blood between Trump, Fox News colors 2024 presidential race – Seth McLaughlin (COMMENT: Government is nasty/vicious. Politics is nasty/vicious. Sooner or later, if not already, my critics/opponents will officially charge me with unethically using my GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters to tip the 2024 Republican Illinois presidential primary scales a) to Trump, b) to DeSantis, and/or c) to other Republican presidential candidates. Who will come to my defense? So far, no one has publicly complained about those who almost succeeded in stopping me from getting press credentials to report on the February 20, 2023 DeSantis event in Elmhurst. Expect that those who support those primary candidates who lose will charge me with unethically promoting other candidates. They did that big time for the 2006 Republican gubernatorial primary. Bill Brady supporters blamed me big time for Brady’s defeat. They almost got the Illinois Center Right Coalition to censure me at its 2006 annual convention in the Wheaton Bowl Banquet Hall. To this day, Jim Ryan supporters blame me big time for Ryan’s losing to Blagojevich in 2002. Democrats always do everything that they can to assure that those candidates who win Republican primaries are the ones who Democrats believe are the easiest to defeat in general elections.)

— 2024 Illinois Republican presidential primary (COMMENT: How important will this primary be, that is, might Illinois’ 64 delegates turn the election?)
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2024_Illinois_Republican_presidential_primary
(FROM THE POSTING: The 2024 Illinois Republican presidential primary will be held on March 19, 2024, where 64 delegates will be allocated on a winner-take-all basis. Former president Donald Trump and Former South Carolina Governor and U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations Nikki Haley are the only main contenders to officially announce their candidacy so far, although Florida governor Ron DeSantis is widely expected to announce his candidacy as soon as May 2023.[5] Former Indiana governor and vice president Mike Pence is reportedly considering running for the Republican Presidential Nomination.[6] Other Republicans thought to be considering contending for the GOP nomination are South Carolina Senator Tim Scott, former New Jersey Governor Chris Christie, former Arkansas Governor Asa Hutchinson, former Maryland governor Larry Hogan, former United States Secretary of State Mike Pompeo, current governors Glenn Youngkin of Virginia and Kristi Noem of South Dakota.)

https://www.benchmarkemail.com/blog/tips-for-discovering-your-target-audience/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Knowing who you’re selling to is just as important as knowing what it is that you’re selling. And while you may think that you understand your target audience like the back of your hand, as strategies change and businesses grow, so do their audiences. Next thing you know, your ideal audience is no longer who you’re targeting, and you’re wondering why your marketing and sales efforts aren’t excelling the way they used to. To stay on track, it’s important to regularly audit your buyer personas to make sure that who you think you’re selling to is accurate and aligned with your goals. Below, we’re going to go over the basics of why knowing your target audience is so essential — plus tips for figuring out exactly who they are.)

I am White. I passed the CPA examination on my first attempt in 1979 and I passed the Certified Internal Auditor examination on my first attempt in 1981. But to make it so that the percentage of those who pass the examinations on their first attempt is proportional base on race, will points be given and/or taken away from examination takers to make that happen based on race?

https://www.americanthinker.com/blog/2023/02/the_names_of_some_of_the_51_anticonservative_american_businesses_may_surprise_you.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Ally Financial, Amalgamated Bank, Bank of America, Berkshire Bank, BMO Harris, Citigroup, Deutsche Bank, Eastern Bank, Fifth Third Bank, First Republic Bank, JPMorgan Chase, Morgan Stanley, PNC, Royal Bank of Canada, Scotiabank, TD Bank, Bancorp, Trillium Asset Management, Truist, US Bank, and Wells Fargo. . .When it comes to transportation, while the leftist airlines—Alaska, American, Southwest, United, and XPO Logistics—cannot refuse to do business based on ideological or religious considerations (the Civil Rights Act prevents that), they are big actors behind the scenes, pushing legislation advancing leftist policies. Thus, American Airlines actively fought against Florida’s Parental Rights in Education Act, while Southwest tries to shut down state laws enhancing election integrity. The major retail giants are also pushing leftism. We’ve seen it with Target, which has been in the forefront of Gay Pride for decades, but it may surprise you to learn that Walmart and Home Depot are also using their economic power to push leftist policies. “For example, 1792 Exchange notes Home Depot ‘advertised flyers to its employees about confronting their ‘white privilege, Christian privilege, heterosexual privilege, able-bodied privilege,’ etc.’” The leftist madness continues with food and beverage companies. We already knew about Ben & Jerry’s, Starbucks, Coca-Cola, and Kellogg’s (with a history of weird progressivism spanning more than 100 years), but you probably didn’t know that McDonald’s and JM Smucker were also on the leftist bandwagon. Again, they sell their products to everyone but use their profits to advance leftist political goals. Finally, we all know about the true biggies: The social media companies, Disney, Hollywood, Google (which was apparently developed with CIA funding). We’re seemingly surrounded.)

https://www.huffpost.com/entry/michael-steele-trump-grifters_n_63fdb512e4b08b1402dfba1c
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Michael Steele, former chair of the Republican National Committee, has a blunt message for anyone hoping to see improvements within the party in the age of Donald Trump and his “MAGA grifters.” “If you’re waiting for it to get better, it’s not going to happen,” he said while filling in as host of MSNBC’s “All In With Chris Hayes.” “The problem is that Trump’s movement within the party is rotten to the core,” he said. He pointed to the lengths people on the right have gone to court Trump loyalists, such as a new admission from Fox News that the network allowed people it knew to be dangerous liars on the air in order to continue to keep Trump supporters tuned in. He noted that the Trump wing of the party has embraced Jan. 6 rioters as well as characters such as “Dilbert” creator Scott Adams, who last week went on a racist tirade urging white people to “get the hell away from Black people,” and Kyle Rittenhouse, the shooter acquitted of murder charges after he killed two unarmed racial justice protesters in 2020. “A rational Republican party would not prop these folks up as heroes,” he said. “But the MAGA Republicans have sold their souls to Trump’s brand of culture-war politics ― and for the RNC, guys like Scott Adams are just another way to fundraise off of grift and grievance.” He urged the party to throw out the “MAGA grifters,” but didn’t seem optimistic that it would happen.)

I would focus on those who ended my service as the Republican fundraiser for Wheaton Independence Day parades and fireworks 2005-2019. I would focus on those who stress the many demographics that I share with Trump: conservative, Republican, White, male, older, heterosexual, draft-avoider, gun-owner, married, non-poor, Protestant, German American, and our ancestor have been in American for a long time.

(FROM THE ARTICLE: DeVore’s first case out of Effingham County secured a temporary restraining order for 866 plaintiffs. A state appellate court sided with the temporary restraining order on the grounds equal protection arguments have a likelihood of success. That ruling was followed by another temporary restraining order DeVore secured for 1,690 plaintiffs in White County and an additional batch of hundreds more plaintiffs in a second Effingham County case. Attorney Jerry Stocks for Caulkins, which secured a temporary restraining order out of Macon County, said he has a fundamental disagreement with DeVore’s approach.

I should write a book about the success that they have had in Illinois, in DuPage County, in Milton Township, and in Wheaton.)
https://townhall.com/columnists/willalexander/2023/02/27/equity-is-not-equality-its-revenge-n2619980
(FROM THE ARTICLE: There’s so little white racism today that Biden and his ilk are reduced to jerry-rigging tragic history to grossly distorted current events to create menacing white racist devils that do not exist: “white privilege,” “systemic racism,” and “white supremacy.” It’s so infuriating because “some people still want to do that” is a hideous lie that digs into long-healed racial wounds. A new generation of Americans is being drenched with this stuff, for no good reason, in the name of achieving racial “equity.” Biden just cemented the war against white racist ghosts in a sweeping new Executive Order on Further Advancing Racial Equity and Support for Underserved Communities Through the Federal Government. It even includes a clause that embeds diversity, equity and inclusion into “Government-Wide Processes” using artificial intelligence. Yet the fight for so-called racial equity has nothing to do with real justice. Stripped of distortions and theatrics, equity is fueled by the same primitive stuff that drives all blood feuds: tribalism, hatred, revenge, and violence. Wicked politicians use the sins of older generations to get and keep power while angry blacks, clinging to old hatreds, seethe for revenge. Biden’s new diktat, in effect, institutionalized a vendetta. But this is the strangest vendetta in history because it’s completely one-sided. Blacks who were never harmed by slavery take shots at a new generation of whites who had nothing to do with it. Worse, despite awful consequences, the government dares them to shoot back. “Be sitting ducks … or else.” And it’s happening years after we witnessed the ultimate symbol of racial reconciliation – the election of Barack Obama. Twice. That election would’ve been impossible without countless whites risking their lives and fortunes over two centuries to reconcile America to its “all men are created equal” ideal. In fact, today, some whites have bent so far backward that they agree that milk, math, meritocracy, and “master” bedrooms are rooted in racism; or that five black cops, beating a black man to death, in a majority black city, with a black police chief, is white supremacy, anti-black racism, and self-hatred. . .Just let go. It’s what the late Professor Walter Williams did, long before issuing his 2007 “Proclamation of Amnesty and Pardon Granted to All Persons of European Descent,” which also addressed the other villain of America’s race conundrum: white guilt. “I, Walter E. Williams,” it read, “do declare full and general amnesty and pardon to all persons of European ancestry, for both their own grievances, and those of their forebears, against my people. “Therefore, from this day forward, Americans of European ancestry can stand straight and proud knowing they are without guilt and thus obliged not to act like damn fools in their relationships with Americans of African ancestry.” When angry black liberals let go of past hatreds and guilt-stricken whites stop acting “like damn fools,” it will become crystal clear that all this equity stuff is a fake vendetta, instigated by slithery politicians and activists, against menacing white ghosts.)

The attendees included former Trump chief of staff Mick Mulvaney, Iowa Gov. Kim Reynolds, Arkansas Sen. Tom Cotton and Texas-based donor Roy Bailey, a former member of Trump’s national finance committee. Oklahoma Gov. Kevin Stitt and Tennessee Gov. Bill Lee were also in attendance, along with Wisconsin Sen. Ron Johnson, Utah Sen. Mike Lee, Texas Rep. Chip Roy and Kentucky Rep. Thomas Massie.

(FROM THE ARTICLE: The attendees included a number of prominent past supporters of Trump, our Alex Isenstadt reports this morning. Among those in the room: “Arizona Republican JIM LAMON, a solar energy executive and Trump donor who aggressively aligned himself with the former president during his unsuccessful 2022 Senate bid … [and] ROY BAILEY, a longtime Texas fundraiser who helped lead Trump’s campaign finance committee.” The retreat also drew several of DeSantis’ fellow governors, including Oklahoma’s KEVIN STITT, “who benefited from a Trump-hosted fundraiser during his reelection bid last year, and Tennessee Gov. BILL LEE, who was also backed by Trump in his 2022 reelection campaign.” Wisconsin Sen. RON JOHNSON was also on hand and participated in a panel discussion, though a spokesperson said he doesn’t intend to endorse in the primary. “Other attendees spotted in the crowd included Kentucky Rep. THOMAS MASSIE, Texas Rep. CHIP ROY, Utah Sen. MIKE LEE and 2022 Nevada Senate candidate ADAM LAXALT, a longtime DeSantis friend.” Lee was involved in Trump’s effort to overturn the election, according to the Jan. 6 committee report.)

https://www.shawlocal.com/northwest-herald/2023/02/25/charlie-kirk-event-in-crystal-lake-sparks-protest-shouting-match/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Kirk’s address was organized by the McHenry County GOPac, a local conservative political action committee. The event was titled “EXPOSING Radicals’ War on Kids” and was advertised as a summit aimed at “rescuing children from government-run schools that are ruining America’s future. Karen Tirio, the committee’s chair, said earlier in the week that school districts play a key role both in and out of the classroom and are “failing us.” She said she didn’t feel the event was partisan and hoped those attending walk away with tools to help them engage with the system. Tirio also sits on the elected McHenry County Regional Board of School Trustees. Among a list of speakers, its biggest draw was Kirk, who grew up in Prospect Heights and founded the conservative organization Turning Point USA, which seeks to engage young conservatives on college campuses.)

— Biden’s age of 82 at re-election would exceed average male life expectancy. (COMMENT: How old are you? I am 74 years old. What is your life expectancy? According to Social Security, my life expectancy is only 12 years, that is, when I am 86 years old, that is, in 2035. By then, I will have been a federal retiree for 38 years. I should write a book those who hint/imply/argue/shout that my Democrat GAO superiors were justified when they forced me to retire in 1997 when I was 49 years old and when they took all the other adverse actions against me that they did. I would focus on those who have known the most about me and my federal career for the longest time. They would include a) Republican U.S. Senators in Illinois, b) Republican U.S. Representatives in northeast Illinois, c) their staff members, d) their campaign managers, and e) candidates for the aforesaid offices. I would focus on those who have blamed me the most and have blamed my GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters the most for Roskam’s defeat in 2018. Putting GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters together and sending them out every morning reduces my life expectancy a) because it motivates my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes to take adverse actions against me, b) because it causes me lots of stress, c) because it reduces the sleep that I get, and d) because it reduces the exercise that I get.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: The demographic profile of Stanford University’s class of 2026 is out, with 1,736 matriculated students in the freshman class of one of the world’s most prestigious universities. But as some perceptive critics were quick to notice, one key demographic is disproportionately underrepresented: While whites make up more than 50 percent of the nation’s adolescent population, per 2019 Office of Population Affairs numbers, they were only 22 percent of Stanford’s class of 2026.)

If/when hate-filled conservative-hating Democrats, Libertarians, Greens, Independents, and/or RINOs succeed in stopping me from sending out GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters, who will come to my defense? It does not look good for me because of those who could have and should have come to my defense, but did not come to my defense when the aforesaid conservative-haters ended my service as a) the Wheaton Independence Day parades and fireworks Republican fundraiser 2005-2019, b) the TAPROOT Republicans of Illinois chairman 2005-2012, c) a Wheaton Chamber of Commerce Government Affairs Committee member 2003-2011, d) the Milton Township Republican Organization (MTRO) webmaster 2008-2010 and 2000-2004, e) an Illinois Center Right Coalition (ICRC) Steering Committee member 2003-2007, and f) an American Association of Political Consultants Midwest Chapter board member 2001-2004 and when the aforesaid conservative-haters a) ended my bid to be appointed to fill the Wheaton City West District vacancy in 2019, b) gerrymandered my precinct in 2015, c) almost got ICRC to censure me in 2006 for my GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters, and d) ended my bid to serve as the MTRO Treasurer in 2004. Nevertheless, I hope that the following would come to my defense: a) those Republicans who I have done the most to help elect and to help reelect to offices in Wheaton, in Milton Township, in DuPage County, and in Illinois since 2000; b) the MTRO, DuPage County Republican Central Committee, and Illinois Republican Party (IRP) leaders, and especially my representative on the IRP State Central Committee; c) conservative activists, conservative leaders, and conservative religious leaders in Wheaton, Milton Township, DuPage County, and Illinois; and d) those who read my GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters.

But sadly, not any more. Yes, my health is not as good now, I have less energy, and I have less motivation, but more than that, ever-increasingly, Republican candidates who lose primary elections and/or who lose general elections and their political consultants, major donors, fundraisers, pollsters, campaign managers, campaign staff members, and campaign volunteers blame me and blame my GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters for candidate defeats. I should write a book about that. I would focus on the aforesaid who have taken the most/biggest adverse actions against me to punish me for candidate defeats. They do everything that they can to stop me from sending out GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters and to stop everyone from reading those newsletters. Recently, they did everything that they could to stop me from reporting on the February 20, 2023 DeSantis event in Elmhurst.)

POLITICO FLORIDA
— COMMENT: Democrats say “Trump demonized the media. DeSantis wants to diminish them. Florida Republicans are seeking to weaken laws protecting journalists.” I should write a book about those who have blamed me and who have blamed my GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters the most since 2000 for their problems, for your problems, for my problems, and for everyone’s problems.
https://www.politico.com/news/2023/02/23/florida-gop-desantis-proposal-sue-media-00084023
(FROM THE ARTICLE: At the governor’s urging, Florida’s Republican-dominated Legislature is pushing to weaken state laws that have long protected journalists against defamation suits and frivolous lawsuits. The proposal is part DeSantis’ ongoing feud with media outlets like The New York Times, Miami Herald, CNN and The Washington Post — media companies he claims are biased against Republicans — as he prepares for a likely 2024 presidential bid. Beyond making it easier to sue journalists, the proposal is also being positioned to spark a larger legal battle with the goal of eventually overturning New York Times v. Sullivan, the landmark 1964 U.S. Supreme Court ruling that limits public officials’ ability to sue publishers for defamation, according to state Rep. Alex Andrade, the Florida Republican sponsoring the bill. . .Andrade’s proposal incorporates many of the elements DeSantis called for during the roundtable, including: allowing plaintiffs who sue media outlets for defamation to collect attorney’s fees; adding a provision to state law specifying that comments made by anonymous sources are presumed false for the purposes of defamation lawsuits; lowering the legal threshold for a “public figure” to successfully sue for defamation; repealing the “journalist’s privilege” section of state law, which protects journalists from being compelled to do things like reveal the identity of sources in court, for defamation lawsuits.)

— COMMENT: Democrats say: “Lutheran Church-Missouri Synod president calls for excommunicating white nationalists.” I was baptized in 1948 as a Missouri Synod Lutheran (MSL), raised as a MSL, and confirmed as a MSL in 1962. I should write a book about my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes who have used that against me the most. I would focus on my Democrat superiors in the federal government. 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 those who have taken the most/biggest adverse actions against me. In my defense, I stress that when the Trinity Lutheran Church in Crete left the Missouri Synod for the more conservative Wisconsin Synod in 1961, my parents transferred them, me, and my brother to the Hope Lutheran Church in Park Forest to stay with the Missouri Synod.

SMART ASSET

Ten times that is $1,426,500.)

MERRIAM-WEBSTER
— Turn Against
https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/turn%20against

DIERSEN COMMENT: Who has had the greatest success in turning people against you? I should write a book about my critics/opponents who have had the greatest success in turning people against me in Wheaton, Milton Township, DuPage County, and Illinois since 1978. I would focus on those who have/had lots of religious, government, political, and/or financial clout. I would devote chapters to those who are the following who my critics/opponents have had the most success in turning against me:

— those who reject the individual responsibility plank in the Republican Party platform
— those who reject the traditional marriage/family plank
— those who reject the right to life plank
— those who reject the immigration plank
— those who reject the illegal drugs plank
— those who reject the Second Amendment plank
— those who reject the equal opportunity (no race or gender based preference giving) plank
— those who paint themselves as being religious, but work against religious people
— those who paint themselves as being conservative, but work against conservatives
— those who paint themselves as being Republican, but work against Republicans
— minorities
— females
— younger people
— LGBTQers
— parents
— veterans
— non-married people
— non-Protestants
— non-German Americans
— those whose ancestors have not been America for a long time
— those who have less money than I have
— those who despise/hate union members
— those who despise/hate federal employees and federal retirees
— those who despise/hate American nameplate vehicles and their owners

I would focus on past and present a) leaders of the Illinois Republican Party, DuPage County Republican Central Committee, and Milton Township Republican Organization, b) Republican elected officials in Illinois, DuPage County, Milton Township, and Wheaton, c) Republican candidates on ballots in my precinct since 2000 and their political consultants, fundraisers, pollsters, campaign managers, campaign staff members, and campaign volunteers, d) conservative leaders, e) religious leaders, and f) those who I have sued.

I would focus on those who destroy those like me a) who they cannot manipulate/dominate, b) who refuse to glorify and praise them, c) who refuse to pander to them, d) who refuse to serve as one of their operatives or dupes, e) who refuse to cover up their wrong doing, f) and/or who refuse to give them money.

I would focus those who ended my service as a) the Wheaton Independence Day parades and fireworks Republican fundraiser 2005-2019, b) the TAPROOT chairman 2005-2012, c) a Wheaton Chamber of Commerce Government Affairs Committee member 2003-2011, d) the Milton Township Republican Organization (MTRO) webmaster 2008-2010 and 2000-2004, e) an ICRC Steering Committee member 2003-2007, and f) an American Association of Political Consultants Midwest Chapter board member 2001-2004.

I would focus on those who a) ended my bid to be appointed to fill the Wheaton City West District vacancy in 2019, b) gerrymandered my precinct in 2015, c) almost got ICRC to censure me in 2006 for my GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters, and d) ended my bid to serve as the MTRO Treasurer in 2004.

I would focus on those who have had far more advantages in life than I have had, but who hint/imply/argue/shout that I owe all my successes in life to my unfairly benefitting from discrimination against those who are minority, female, younger, LGBTQ, non-married, parents, veterans, non-union members, non-Protestants, non-German Americans, those whose ancestor have not been in America for a long time, etc.

I would focus on those who did the most to stop me from being invited to report on the February 20, 2023 DeSantis Elmhurst event. I would focus on how they treated me at that event.

I would especially focus on Republican candidates on ballots in my precinct since 2000 who I have done the most to help elect and to help reelect, but who have blamed me and blamed my GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters the most for their defeats.

I would especially focus on the aforesaid who are currently taking the most/biggest adverse actions against me to stop me from sending out GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters.

Because of the aforesaid, my having done the following became worthless: a) my earning an MBA from Loyola in 1976, b) my passing the CPA examination on my first attempt in 1979, c) my earning a master’s degree in accounting from DePaul in 1980, d) my passing the Certified Internal Auditor examination in 1981, and e) my becoming a licensed CPA in 1988. The aforesaid is called “up-or-out,” that is, political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, and age discrimination.)

— Nikki Haley tells liberal critics to ‘bring it’ in fiery response to MSNBC guest’s ‘White supremacy’ claim. (COMMENT: Ever-increasingly, to get votes from hate-filled White-hating White-haters, Democrats, Libertarians, Greens, Independents, and RINOs hint/imply/argue/shout that Republicans are White supremacists, Nazis, KKK members, haters, racists, sexists, bigots, and even worse thing who should be gotten rid of once and for all. How successful have Democrats, Libertarians, Greens, Independents, and RINOs been in promoting such hatred in your county, in your township, in your municipality, and your precinct? I should write a book about their success in DuPage County, Milton Township, Wheaton, and my precinct.)

https://hotair.com/headlines/2023/02/21/trump-is-losing-his-mind-over-desantis-n532309
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The truth is Trump loved DeSantis until he became a threat to his reelection. Now, in his super petty way, he’s calling DeSantis a RINO and suggesting he’s done nothing to make the state the beacon of freedom that it is today. Trump is losing his mind over DeSantis, to the point that he has to smear him and lie about him to attack him.)

NEW YORK TIMES
— COMMENT: Democrats say “Supreme Court Seems Wary of Limiting Protections for Social Media Platforms. The case, concerning a law that gives websites immunity for suits based on their users’ posts, has the potential to alter the very structure of the internet.” My critics/opponents are beyond furious that Section 230 limits their ability to sue me. Since 2000, my critics/opponents have blamed me and blamed 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. Previously, they blamed me for what I did as a) Republican fundraiser for Wheaton Independence Day parades and fireworks 2005-2019, b) chairman of TAPROOT Republicans of Illinois 2005-2012, c) Milton Township Republican Organization webmaster 2008-2010 and 2000-2004, and d) Illinois Center Right Coalition Steering Committee member 2003-2007.
https://www.nytimes.com/2023/02/21/us/google-supreme-court-youtube.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The federal law at issue in the case, Section 230 of the Communications Decency Act, shields online platforms from lawsuits over what their users post and the platforms’ decisions to take content down. Limiting the sweep of the law could expose the platforms to lawsuits claiming they had steered people to posts and videos that promote extremism, advocate violence, harm reputations and cause emotional distress.)

— COMMENT: Democrats say “GOP Mega-Donor and Ex-Trump Ambassador Don Tapia Endorses DeSantis: Don’t Like the Name-Calling.” How do Trump-supporters and Trump-haters view not only my reporting on who attended the February 20, 2023 DeSantis Elmhurst event, but my including or not including links in GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters to articles that concern Trump and/or DeSantis?
https://www.mediaite.com/politics/gop-mega-donor-and-ex-trump-ambassador-endorses-desantis-dont-like-the-name-calling/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Politico’s Alex Isenstadt wrote on Tuesday that DeSantis’s event will “be scrutinized for which donors attend — including how many of them were once Trump backers who may be looking to defect from the former president to the Florida governor.” Isenstadt noted that DeSantis is currently making all the standard moves a candidate makes before jumping into a presidential race. The governor is about to release a book and is traveling the country to raise his national profile. Additionally, DeSantis has already won over many former Trump donors.)

MERRIAM WEBSTER
— Invitation (COMMENT: One could argue that because the February 20, 2023 DeSantis Elmhurst event was an “invitation-only” event, the following should be fully disclosed: a) who determined who was invited to attend and who was not invited to attend and why, b) which past and present Republican elected officials, party leaders, major donors, etc. who were invited did not attend and why, and c) who determined which reporters were invited to report on the event and who were not invited to report on the event and why. Since 2000, as your GOPUSA Illinois Editor, I have reported on who attended many such events in Illinois, in DuPage County, in Milton Township, and in Wheaton. I should write a book about my critics/opponents who have hinted/implied/argued/shouted the most since 2000 that no one should want to be listed in a GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletter as having attended an event. They hint/imply/argue/shout that if you are listed, that information will be viciously used against you. Immediately after my critics/opponents ended my TAPROOT Republicans of Illinois chairmanship, my Milton Township Republican Organization (MTRO) webmaster service, and my Illinois Center Right Coalition (ICRC) Steering Committee membership, they deleted all my reports on who had attended TAPROOT, MTRO, and ICRC events. Do not be surprised if/when my critics/opponents hint/imply/argue/shout a) that I am an operative/dupe for Trump and b) that Trump will destroy not only DeSantis, LaHood, and Hires, but that Trump will destroy each and every person that I listed as having attended the February 20, 2023 DeSantis Elmhurst event. Further, do not be surprised if/when my critics/opponents hint/imply/argue/shout that if you attended the event, you are not only not afraid of Trump, but that you are a Trump-hater.)
