What positions do the following have on Democrat and RINO leaders allowing/encouraging anyone and everyone in the world to come to America illegally and to stay in America illegally if they claim asylum: a) your Republican Congressman, b) your Republican state senator and representative, c) the Republican leaders of your county, township, municipality, and school district, d) the Illinois Republican Party (IRP) leaders, e) your representative on the IRP State Central Committee, f) the leaders of your Republican county and township/ward party organizations, and g) the Republican candidates on the March 19, 2024 Republican primary ballot in your precinct? Under the Democrats and under the RINOs, anticipate/expect that sooner or later, virtually all the citizens of all the countries of the world will seek asylum in America.

My critics/opponents have always used against me my benefitting from the federal government’s more generous leave policies. As a part-time substitute carrier/clerk for the Park Forest Post Office 1966-1969, I worked many more hours because my coworkers took lots of sick leave and annual leave. My Civil Service Retirement System is higher because my more than a year of unused sick leave was credited as though I had worked that time.)

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ij3bgJQF7go
https://news.yahoo.com/just-fraction-migrants-living-chicago-001300483.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: With more than 14,000 migrants still living in one of more than two dozen city-operated shelters in Chicago, only a fraction of all the asylum seekers who have arrived in Chicago over the past 16 months have received the permits they need to start looking for jobs. As of Monday morning, city officials said 14,717 asylum seekers were staying in the city’s 27 shelters, and more than half of those are coming up on the city’s 60-day limit for staying in shelters. . .It’s not clear how many applications have been submitted, but as of Dec. 29, U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services had processed work permits and temporary protected status applications for only 1,480 new arrivals, according to city data obtained by CBS 2. Once those applications are processed, they also need to be approved. Sources said only 284 asylum seekers in Chicago have gotten work permits, and 279 have received their Social Security card. That’s about 1%. Worse, city data suggests applications did not start processing until the week of Nov. 9.)

— Monday was deadline for Illinois owners of assault weapons prior to ban to register their guns – DARIUS JOHNSO
(FROM THE ARTICLE: As of last week, only 15,000 people completed the disclosures, according to Illinois State Police. There are nearly 2.5 million firearm owner’s IDs in the state. However, it’s unclear how many of those FOID holders own assault weapons, high-capacity magazines, or rapid-firing triggers. . .In November, state police said it is up to prosecutors in the state’s 102 counties to enforce the law, but it’s unclear what penalties would be in store for those who fail to register their weapons. Penalties can vary for illegal weapons. Carrying or possessing unauthorized assault weapons could result in a misdemeanor, with one year in jail or a fine of up to $2,500. Manufacturing, selling, or purchasing an unauthorized weapon could constitute a felony and result in up to 10 years in prison and a fine of up to $25,000.)

— FRONT PAGE WITH PICTURE: Here’s what to know about the job market in 2024. – Talia Soglin (COMMENT: What was the Chicago-area job market like when you graduated from college? It was not good for me when I graduated in August of 1970 from NIU with a bachelor’s degree in management. Potential employers viewed me as being draft bait. They did not believe that my application for a financial hardship draft deferment would be approved. My father had died suddenly in October of 1969. My mother had never worked outside the home and she had never attended high school. Further, employers were under ever-increasing pressure to hire minorities, females, and veterans. Further, my GPA was not that high because instead of studying, I had worked as many hours as I could for the Park Forest Post Office 1966-1969. Consequently, I accepted the only job offer that I got, it was from Firestone to be a Retail Store Sales Manager. I soon learned a) that my job did not really require a college degree, b) that I was not using what I had learned at NIU, c) that my duties frequently included pumping gasoline, mounting and balancing tires, changing oil and filters, installing batteries, delivering major appliances, etc., d) that advancement would be very slow, and e) my boss disapproved of my being a college graduate, draft avoider, Protestant, German American, and Crete resident. I was assigned to his store by the Firestone Store district office. He never would have hired me.)

— Jefferson County Sheriff shares gun control concerns (FROM THE ARTICLE: “Anyone wishing to delay registering their firearms, waiting for the U.S. Supreme Court rule on this matter would be safe to do so.”)
https://thesouthern.com/news/jefferson-county-sheriff-shares-gun-control-concerns/article_0507950e-8162-5f0b-98fe-c17ae972838e.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Jefferson County Sheriff Jeff Bullard, however, took to social media ahead of the affidavit deadline to share that he believed the law was unconstitutional. In a question and answer style video posted on the Jefferson County Sheriff’s Office Facebook page Friday, Bullard said he had been receiving many concerned calls from gun owners who wanted to know if they should register their firearms as constitutional challenges to PICA carry on in state and federal courts. He directed people to the ISP website for registration and more information, before claiming, “Anyone wishing to delay registering their firearms, waiting for the U.S. Supreme Court rule on this matter would be safe to do so.” He continued, saying, “I would never advise anyone to knowingly violate the law, but the law has to be constitutionally valid on its face, and this gun ban is not,” citing previous Supreme Court cases he believed demonstrated his argument, included New York State Pistol and Rifle Association v. Bruen and D.C. v Heller. Bullard said he and other, unnamed Illinois sheriffs who oppose the law “won’t enforce it” and “won’t support it in any way, shape, or form.” Bullard stated that he believed the best way to combat violent crime was “aggressive policing, investigations, prosecution, that is supported by sound sentencing decisions by our judges.”)

HOMETOWN REGISTER
— IRS ready to test free-file program in 13 states (COMMENT: As long as Democrats run IRS, Republicans should use TurboTax. In 1978, the Democrats who ran IRS disallowed the graduate a) business courses that I had taken at Loyola 1972-1976 and b) accounting courses that I had taken at DePaul since 1976. I was 29, I had worked for IRS for almost 7 years, and my salary was $106,785/year (GS-12 Step 4) in today’s dollars. They would not have disallowed those courses I had not been a union member or if I had been a Democrat, minority, female, and/or veteran. They disallowed those courses to punish me for my complaining about their use of “up-or-out” to get rid of me, that is, their use of political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, and age discrimination to get rid of me. They had made it extremely clear that they would never promote me to GS-13 because I was too old. They ignored/dismissed/belittled the aforesaid course work and that I was on track to pass the CPA examination which I did in 1979. They outrageously/disgustingly/unethically argued that the courses were not job-related, that they did not help me carry out my job duties, that they qualified me for a new trade or business, and that I took them to get a job in the private sector. They ignored/dismissed/belittled the requirements of my position descriptions and the fact that I stated in my Loyola and DePaul applications that I wanted to take the courses because the employee manual that IRS gave me in 1971 encouraged me to take graduate business, accounting, and law courses. They helped Money Magazine make my deducting the courses look improper in its 4-page February 1978 article on me. Again, as long as Democrats run IRS, Republicans should use TurboTax.)

GAO delayed my promotions to GS-11, GS-12, and GS-13, and never promoted me to GS-14. GAO forced me to take its early retirement “offer” when I was 49. The aforesaid is called patronage, up-or-out, political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, and age discrimination.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: After Pritzker signed the ban into law, many promised to not comply including his former gubernatorial challenger turned Illinois Congressional District 12 candidate Darren Bailey. Rep. Brad Halbrook, R-Shelbyville, said Thursday that hundreds of thousands will not abide by the registry order. “It’s up to the governor and the legislature to truly decide if they are prepared to declare war on law-abiding gun owners or not,” he said during the meeting. If that holds true, gun owners would be subject to Class A misdemeanor upon the first offense and Class 3 felony for the second and subsequent offenses per the bill. A Class 3 felony could land those found in violation with up to 10 years in prison.)

I should write about those who have taken the most/biggest adverse actions against me since 2000. I would focus on those who have lots of religious, government, political, and/or financial clout in Wheaton, Milton Township, DuPage County, and Illinois. I would focus on those who blame me and who blame my GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters the most for their problems, for your problems, for my problems, and for everyone’s problems. I would focus on those who reject the most planks in the Republican Party platform, most commonly the individual responsibility, traditional marriage and family, right to life, immigration, illegal drugs, Second Amendment, and/or equal opportunity (no race or gender based preference giving) planks.

— House Passes Israel Aid Bill Funded by IRS Cuts – Arjun Singh (COMMENT: If I was still working for IRS, my Democrat superiors, supervisors, coworkers, and subordinates would kill me. Democrats run IRS. In 1971, I was one of the last Republicans who they hired. They offered me a job because I had earned a bachelor’s degree in management from NIU in 1970, because I had passed the Federal Service Entrance Examination in 1970, and because they could not find a qualified Democrat, minority, female, or veteran who would take the job. I accepted IRS’s job offer a) because Firestone Stores had rudely fired me because I had accepted a job offer from Oldsmobile, an offer that Oldsmobile subsequently withdrew saying that it had just agreed to stop hiring Whites to settle an EEOC complaint, b) because I was helping support my mother and brother because my father had died in 1969, and c) because I had worked for the Post Office for almost 3 years and I would get all my seniority and sick leave reinstated. To get rid of me, because I refused to become a Democrat and because I complained about political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, and age discrimination, my Democrat IRS superiors disallowed my travel vouchers in 1974, disallowed my education deductions in 1978, and never promoted me beyond GS-12 even though I earned an MBA from Loyola in 1976 and passed the CPA examination on my first attempt in 1979. They would not have taken the aforesaid adverse actions against me if I had been a Democrat, minority, female, or veteran. It is called political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, and age discrimination.)

Richard Rubin (COMMENT: If I was still working for IRS, my Democrat superiors, supervisors, coworkers, and subordinates would kill me. Democrats run IRS. In 1971, I was one of the last Republicans who they hired. They offered me a job because I had earned a bachelor’s degree in management from NIU in 1970, because I had passed the Federal Service Entrance Examination in 1970, and because they could not find a qualified Democrat, minority, female, or veteran who would take the job.

FORTUNE
— Antisemitism is on the rise across America–and it’s creeping into the workplace. – JONATHAN A. GREENBLATT AND CLARA HESS (COMMENT: While I worked for GAO’s Chicago office for almost 18 years 1980-1997, at least one of my superiors was always Jewish and often two. During my last 12 years, all of my superiors were Jewish. My Democrat GAO superiors stressed to them that I was conservative, Republican, Lutheran, 100% German American, a Crete resident 1948-1972, and a Wheaton resident since 1978. During those 18 years they took many adverse actions against me. They a) forced me to take a $21,863/year (21%) pay cut in today’s dollars to transfer from IRS to GAO, b) gave me bad job assignments and unfair performance expectations and evaluations. c) assigned me to work for, work with, and supervise their most problematic employees, d) turned my superiors, supervisors, coworkers, and subordinates against me, e) kept me off audits of IRS for all but 3 of those almost 18 years, f) delayed my promotions to GS-11, GS-12, and GS-13 and never promoted me to GS-14, g) always ranked me in the lower half of my coworkers for pay-for-performance purposes, and h) forced me to take their early retirement “offer” in 1997 when I was 49 years old. In my defense, I earned a master’s degree in accounting from DePaul in 1980. I passed the Certified Internal Auditor examination on my first attempt and became a licensed CPA in 1981. I became a Certified Fraud Examiner in 1990, Government Financial Manager in 1994, Financial Services Auditor in 1996, and Forensic Accountant in 1997. I earned a master’s degree in financial markets and trading from IIT in 1997. I should write a book about the aforesaid.)

SALES RECRUITER CHICAGO
— Career Advice for Those Starting Late in Life (COMMENT: Did you get a late start in life? I certainly did. I did not earn an MBA from Loyola until I was 27. I did not pass the CPA examination until I was 30. I did not earn a master’s degree in accounting from DePaul until I was 31. I did not pass the Certified Internal Auditor examination and become a licensed CPA until I was 32. In retrospect, with benefit of hindsight, I should have majored in accounting at UIC and NIU. I should have earned a master’s degree in accounting much sooner. I should have passed the CPA examination and become a licensed CPA much sooner. When I transferred from IRS to GAO when I was 31, all my Democrat superiors, supervisors, coworkers, and subordinates stressed to me that I was much too old to have a successful GAO career.)

GOPUSA ILLINOIS
— The following text is in this week’s Illinois Republican Party (IRP) Chairman’s Memo: “We frequently hear that this Memo is not as widely distributed as it should be. Please help us in that regard by forwarding it to your family and friends.” Compare and contrast the articles that IRP, DuPage County Republican Central Committee (DCRCC), and Milton Township Republican Organization (MTRCC) draw attention to with the articles that my GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters draw attention to. I should write about how the following treat my GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters and why: a) leaders of the IRP, DCRCC, and MTRO, b) Republican leaders of Illinois, DuPage County, Milton Township, and Wheaton, c) Republican candidates on ballots in my precinct and their political consultants, major donors, fundraisers, pollsters, campaign managers, campaign staff members, and campaign volunteers, d) conservative leaders and activists, and e) religious leaders and activists. I would focus on the aforesaid who have taken the most/biggest adverse actions against me. – Dave Diersen

According to my critics/opponents, all the jobs that I had a) were bad jobs that they would never stoop to take and b) paid more than they should have because they were bad jobs. I did yard work 1962-1964, delivered newspapers 1962-1966, washed dishes 1964-1966, cleaned golf shoes, chipped slag, pumped gasoline in 1966, delivered mail 1966-1969, worked on an automobile assembly line in 1970, sold tires, automotive services, and major appliances 1970-1971, pumped gasoline 1971-1972, collected delinquent taxes 1971-1980, and audited federal agencies 1980-1997. I took the aforesaid jobs because they were offered to me and I needed money. I needed money to buy cars (1964, 1966, 1967, 1968, 1971, 1974, 1978, etc.), to pay for college expenses (1966-1981 and 1992-1997), to help support my mother and brother (1970-1972), to buy real estate (1972, 1974, 1976, 1978, and 1984), etc.)

https://foxillinois.com/news/local/sangamon-county-residents-seek-answers-on-migrant-crisis-impact-in-illinois
(FROM THE ARTICLE: “We’re footing the bill for it all, and so things are getting tight. We need answers,” said Pulido, Illinois state advisor for the Federation for American Immigration Reform (FAIR). “These people ran for office to be our representatives, and they need to get educated number one and number two, come up with some ideas.” During the town hall a number of concerns around the immigration issue were also brought up. One of the biggest concerns and issues that was shared was where Illinois taxpayer money and resources are being used. “Illinois is spending $3.9 billion a year for illegal aliens who are present in your state The single largest cost is K through 12–it’s education. It’s the children of illegal aliens. That is the biggest cost to the state of Illinois for $2.3 billion. The second one is criminal justice,” said Susan Tully, FAIR special projects law enforcement liaison and speaker for the forum. Other worries that were brought up are the overcrowding in schools, housing, and hospitals, as well as the human trafficking that happens at the border. Sangamon County Sheriff Jack Campbell and State Representative Mike Coffey were among those in the audience at the town hall.)

CENTRAL ILLINOIS PROUD

That was one reason why I suffered a $21,863/year (21%) pay cut in today’s dollars to transfer from IRS to GAO in 1980.

https://www.nctv17.org/news/naperville-chief-of-police-dupage-county-states-attorney-respond-to-elimination-of-cash-bail/

POLITICO ILLINOIS
— Democrats say “Cash bail ends — but not its politics. . .Our inbox was full of statements from Republican leaders criticizing the ruling. It’s a signal the cash bail law will be a talking point in 2022 – even though the law will already be in effect. The GOP outrage: Congresswoman Mary Miller (IL-15) predicted the law “will flood the streets” with dangerous criminals. State Sen. Andrew Chesney accused Democrats of enacting “the most radical soft-on-crime policies in the country.” And state Republican Senate Leader John Curran called for a special session of the Democratic-controlled General Assembly “to properly address the negative impact on the public before this reckless statute goes into effect in just 60 days.” Sounds familiar: Republicans used similar language ahead of the 2022 election. Broadsheet publications designed to read like real newspapers fueled misinformation about the criminal justice reform law known as the SAFE-T Act, which includes eliminating cash bail. The publications stirred confusion and forced Democrats to spend time explaining the nuances of the law, even though it had already passed and had nothing to do with the election itself. Ultimately, Democrats came out ahead after the election, gaining even more seats in the General Assembly and re-electing Democratic Gov. JB Pritzker, who had signed the law abolishing cash bail. What’s next: Watch for Republicans to revisit the 2022 campaign tactic nonetheless. From the right: “Democrats’ position on eliminating cash bail and being soft on crime will be a top issue that will impact the 2024 election — especially in the suburbs,” GOP political consultant Jon Zahm told Playbook.”

DAILY CALLER
— DeSantis Reveals Plan Aimed At Gutting Diversity Efforts And Promoting Accountability In The Military (COMMENT: Democrats use Diversity to get rid of Republicans. I worked for the Post Office for almost 3 years, for IRS for almost 9 years, and for GAO for almost 18 years. If my Democrat superiors had not used Diversity to get rid of their Republican employees, that is, if they had not used political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, and age discrimination to get rid of their Republican employees, I would have been promoted into the Senior Executive Service long before I was 40 years old. I earned a bachelor’s degree in management from NIU when I was 21. I earned an MBA from Loyola when I was 27. I passed the CPA examination on my first attempt when I was 30. I earned a master’s degree in accounting from DePaul when I was 31. I passed the Certified Internal Auditor examination on my first attempt and I became a licensed CPA when I was 32.)

CHICAGO TRIBUNE
— FRONT PAGE WITH PICTURE: Illegal immigration drives wages down for those who lack education and/or job skills. Democrats and RINOs ever-increasingly want cheap labor, that is, they ever-increasingly want people who lack education and/or job skills to take bad jobs, that is, they ever-increasingly want illegals to fill bad jobs. Did you have to take bad jobs? I did. Because my parents lacked money, I did yard work 1962-1964, delivered newspapers 1962-1966, washed dishes 1964-1966, cleaned golf shoes, chipped slag, and pumped gasoline in 1966, and delivered mail 1966-1969. With the money that I earned, I bought a 1958 Chevrolet Bel Air in 1964, I bought a new 1966 Pontiac Tempest Sprint in 1966, I paid for my UIC expenses 1966-1968 and for my NIU expenses 1969-1970, I bought a new 1968 Oldsmobile 442 in 1967, I bought a new 1969 Dodge Charger SE in 1968, and I graduated debt-free from NIU with a bachelor’s degree in management and owning that Charger in 1970. If there had been as many illegals back then as there are now, illegals would have gotten the jobs that I got and the wages paid for those jobs would have been much less.

560 THE ANSWER
— Jeanne Ives Joins AM 560 Starting Tonight
https://560theanswer.com/radioshow/the-real-story
(FROM THE ANNOUNCEMENT: An informed and educated citizenry is the only guarantee to preserve our constitutional republic. Each week hear from policy experts — not pundits — to find out what’s really happening so that you can be informed. Get The Real Story with Jeanne Ives. There’s no topic of public policy concern that she won’t talk about. Stop the lies. Learn the truth on The Real Story with Jeanne Ives. . .Jeanne Ives served three terms as an Illinois State Representative. First elected in 2012, Representative Ives demonstrated not only a willingness to lead on difficult issues and question powerful House leaders, but also an insightful understanding of policy. In keeping with her fiscally conservative principles, she refused both a taxpayer funded pension and healthcare. Her legislation has been recognized throughout the state. During her tenure, Representative Ives focused on bringing about true pension and tax reform in the state, government transparency, and advocating for school choice. Her opinion pieces have been published in the Chicago Tribune, The Federalist and the Wall Street Journal as well as several political news sites. In 2018, she was enlisted by Illinois families and business owners, as well as legislative colleagues to run a campaign for Governor after incumbent Republican Bruce Rauner betrayed his campaign promises to fiscally reform government and pursue no social agenda. In 2020, Representative Ives ran for Congress against Democrat incumbent Sean Casten. Her effort was not successful, but her campaign created a new momentum in the suburbs for conservative thought. As such, Jeanne started a non-profit Breakthrough Ideas whose mission is to build the infrastructure and conservative networks (online and grassroots) needed to advance conservative ideas and Republican candidates in the suburbs. Representative Ives graduated in the West Point Class of 1987 with a Bachelor of Science in Economics. She went on to serve in the US Army. Her assignments included platoon leader and headquarters detachment commander for transportation units in Germany and ROTC instructor at Wheaton College. She resigned from the Army in 1993 to raise her children. At the same time, she worked as a tax advisor and bookkeeper for small businesses and individuals. Prior to her election to the Illinois House, Ives served on the Wheaton City Council, where her tenure was marked by conservative leadership and an unwavering commitment to the taxpayers’ bottom line. Her awards include Champion of Free Enterprise from the Illinois Chamber of Commerce, the inaugural Titanium Backbone Award from Illinois Family Institute for her pro-family stances, and 100% rating from the American Conservative Union. Jeanne has lived in Wheaton for 29 years with her husband, Paul (also a USMA Class of 1987 graduate), and their 5 children. The tradition continues with three sons serving in the military. One of her greatest joys was coaching the championship St. Michael Boys and Girls Cross Country teams for 12 years as a parent volunteer.)

NEW YORK DAILY NEWS
— Illegal immigration drives wages down for those who lack education and/or job skills. Democrats and RINOs ever-increasingly want cheap labor, that is, they ever-increasingly want people who lack education and/or job skills to take bad jobs, that is, they ever-increasingly want illegals to fill bad jobs. Did you have to take bad jobs? I did. Because my parents lacked money, I did yard work 1962-1964, delivered newspapers 1962-1966, washed dishes 1964-1966, cleaned golf shoes, chipped slag, and pumped gasoline in 1966, and delivered mail 1966-1969. With the money that I earned, I bought a 1958 Chevrolet Bel Air in 1964, I bought a new 1966 Pontiac Tempest Sprint in 1966, I paid for my UIC expenses 1966-1968 and for my NIU expenses 1969-1970, I bought a new 1968 Oldsmobile 442 in 1967, I bought a new 1969 Dodge Charger SE in 1968, and I graduated debt-free from NIU with a bachelor’s degree in management and owning that Charger in 1970. If there had been as many illegals back then as there are now, illegals would have gotten the jobs that I got and the wages paid for those jobs would have been much less.

DUPAGE POLICY JOURNAL
— ‘What struck me was the level of indignance both Commissioner Tornatore and Chairman Zay demonstrated. – Noel Manley’
https://dupagepolicyjournal.com/stories/646021621-manley-what-struck-me-was-the-level-of-indignance-both-commissioner-tornatore-and-chairman-zay-demonstrated
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The Downers Grove Township Republican Organization hosted DuPage Commissioner Sam Tornatore and DuPage GOP Chairman Jim Zay. Noel Manley, a committeeman with the Downers Grove Township Republican Organization (DGTRO), said the pair’s performance was less than desirable. “DuPage Commissioner Tornatore and DuPage GOP Chairman Zay appeared at our July 10, 2023 DGTRO Committemen’s meeting,” Manley told the DuPage Policy Journal. “Both were invited by DGTRO Chairman Jack Novak to address concerns raised by committeemen regarding their actions. Commissioner Tornatore addressed a $1,000.00 donation made by his firm to Democrat Deb Conroy.” “The commissioner reported that he was invited to the event by a trusted Republican friend. It was discovered last night that donating to Democrat events is a common practice among Republican leadership. Chairman Zay’s remarks focused on coming together as Republicans and not dwell in the past. Both justified their actions as efforts necessary to protect the budgets of the DuPage County Sheriff’s Office and the DuPage County State’s Attorney’s Office.” “However, what struck me was the level of indignance both Commissioner Tornatore and Chairman Zay demonstrated in their explanations. Specifically, their justifications were peppered with comments such as, ‘I didn’t have to be here tonight.’ In addition, questions and comments raised by committeemen regarding the lack of support in recent elections, and contributions to Democrat events were simply dismissed or ignored. In fact, there was no effort to demonstrate any humility or contriteness regarding these matters.” “To compound this presentation, DGTRO Chairman Jack Novak referred to our group of concerned committeemen as anarchists and declared that there is no room for activism in the Republican Party. So it was clear that there was no interest in listening to our concerns, nor a willingness to understand the demoralizing impact GOP leadership’s actions are taking on the rank and file. In fact, the subtext was the exact opposite, ‘Get in line, and shut up. And pay no attention to the man behind the curtain.’” Zay, chairman of the DuPage County Republican Party, has refused to criticize fellow Republicans who financially and materially supported Democratic candidate Deb Conroy in her campaign for DuPage County Board Chair. In a letter to the DuPage GOP, Zay emphasized the need for unity within the party and calls for an end to public criticism of fellow Republicans, stating that it only weakens the party and hinders its ability to expand its base. The statement came after Republican members, including Tornatore and former Board member Donald Puchalski, were outed by the DuPage Policy Journal for making campaign donations to Conroy, drawing attention and controversy within the party. Another Republican, former DuPage County Board member Pete DiCianni was paid by Conroy’s campaign for marketing efforts to get her elected. The DuPage Republicans who have thrown in to support the campaigns of Democrats as we Zay drew the ire of former state representative and one-time gubernatorial candidate Jeanne Ives. Ives, now CEO of Breakthrough Ideas, criticized her fellow DuPage County Republicans for supporting the progressive Conroy’s campaign for DuPage County Board Chair, highlighting Conroy’s alignment with the Democratic Party’s platform and her controversial legislative decisions. “Democrat policies have destroyed the state of Illinois,” Ives said. “I am disgusted that any of my fellow Republicans would do so or defend other Republicans who do so, especially a fundraiser for Deb Conroy.” “Conroy is opposed to every single aspect of our Republican party platform.”)

— French riots show the future of Joe Biden’s America – William Davis
https://www.americanthinker.com/blog/2023/07/french_riots_show_the_future_of_joe_bidens_america.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: As the U.S. deals with the consequences of mass immigration, important lessons can be learned from our oldest European ally. Over the past few weeks, France has been engulfed in riots after a 17-year-old boy was shot and killed by a police officer during a traffic stop. The rioting and looting have largely been centered in communities with many migrants from North African and Islamic nations. The rioting has caused more than one billion dollars in property damage, and has led to thousands of arrests. It has also led to a renewed debate in Europe about the costs of mass migration and whether or not those costs are worth it. It’s not just the U.S. that has experienced an influx of foreign nationals in recent years. France took in a record number of migrants in 2022, both legal and illegal. The European Union resettled nearly one million migrants last year, not including refugees from war-torn Ukraine. The main countries of origin for these refugees were Syria, Afghanistan, Turkey, Venezuela, and Columbia. Just as we’ve seen in the U.S., these large influxes of migrants have had a destabilizing effect on the continent’s cultural, economic, and political life. The carnage occurring in France is the result of long-simmering tensions finally coming to the surface. It’s the results of migrants from third-world, war-torn countries not assimilating into their new country, but bringing the baggage from their old countries with them. During the France riots, a group of North African migrants could be seen chanting “f*ck France,” and “We’re just here for the welfare!” The crassness of these migrants certainly isn’t representative of everybody seeking to come from the third world to prosperous western nations, but it is indicative of a larger problem with mass immigration. Many of these foreign nationals come from countries where violence and chaos has been normalized, and the importation of migrants from these types of countries can also serve to normalize the same type of disorder in their new countries. This is why what’s happening in France should serve as a warning sign for Americans. More than five million illegal aliens have crossed the U.S.-Mexico border since Joe Biden took office.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: While neither the commissioners nor their smug attorney Phillip A. Leutkehans clarified anything, community members clarified much—and it was all good, very good. As an interesting aside, Leutkehans’ law partner is none other than the arrogant RINO Pat Brady, disgraced former Illinois Republican Party chairman who, before Illinois legalized same-sex “marriages,” skulked around Springfield secretly trying to convince Republicans to vote in favor of the law that recognizes non-marital unions as marriages. Once ousted from his position as chairman, the ACLU hired him to lobby Republicans to support same-sex faux-marriage.)

https://www.wsj.com/articles/starbucks-workers-citing-pride-decorations-strike-at-some-stores-6551357b
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Sean Plotts, a 26-year-old Starbucks worker who said he and other baristas in his Chicago store struck over the weekend, said his store didn’t get to hang Pride decorations. “It’s honestly a shame,” he said. Starbucks’s chief executive defended the company’s commitment to the LGBTQ community and suggested advocates for the union were wrongly exploiting the situation. The company apologized to customers inconvenienced by the strikes and encouraged them to search for an operating cafe on its app. “We strongly disapprove of any person or group, seeking to use our partners’ cultural and heritage celebrations to create harm or flagrantly advance misinformation for self-interested-goals,” said CEO Laxman Narasimhan in an internal company message. Partners is the company’s term for employees.)

BARRON’S
— Democrats say “Only Half of People Stay Employed Through Their 50s. How to Prepare.” The Democrats who run the federal government do everything that they can to force federal employees who are Republican to retire as soon as they are eligible, and especially Republican employees like me who are conservative, White, male, non-veteran, Protestant, German American, and/or those whose ancestors have been in America for a long time. I became eligible for early retirement in 1993 when I was 45 years old. I was not eligible for regular retirement until I was 55 years old in 2003. In 1997, I had been working for GAO on audits of federal financial institutions since 1990. In late 1997, when I was 49 years old, my Democrat GAO superiors succeeded in forcing me to take their early retirement “offer.” I should write a book about that. In early 1997, I had earned a master’s degree in financial markets and trading from IIT and I became a Forensic Accountant. In 1996, I became a Certified Financial Services Auditor. In 1994, I became a Certified Government Financial Manager. In 1990, I became a Certified Fraud Examiner. In 1981, I passed the Certified Internal Auditor examination on my first attempt and became a licensed CPA. In 1980, I earned a master’s degree in accounting from DePaul. In 1979, I passed the CPA examination on my first attempt. In 1976, I earned an MBA from Loyola. My Civil Service Retirement System pension a) is only 44% of what my 1997 GAO salary was in today’s dollars and b) less than what my IRS salary was in 1972 in today’s dollars.

CHICAGO CITY WIRE
— Radio talk show host Dan Proft calls Cosley Zoo Pride Month observance in Wheaton a ‘cautionary tale’ of what happens when ‘sentimental barbarians seize control of your civic institutions’ (COMMENT: I should write a book about adverse actions that the Wheaton Park District has taken against me including stopping me since 2021 from serving as the Republican fundraiser for Wheaton Independence Day parades and fireworks.)
https://chicagocitywire.com/stories/644473784-radio-talk-show-host-calls-cosley-zoo-pride-month-observance-a-cautionary-tale-of-what-happens-when-sentimental-barbarians-seize-control-of-your-civic-institutions
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Dan Proft, the host of The Dan Proft Show, claimed in a tweet on Sunday that the “formerly God-fearing community” of Wheaton, Illinois., is an example of a “cautionary tale” by observing Pride Month at the Cosley Zoo. “Now, another cautionary tale as to what happens when you sit idly by and let sentimental barbarians seize control of your civic institutions,” Proft wrote in the tweet. On June 15, the zoo shared a message of support for Pride Month on its Facebook page. “June is #pride month. Our animals have been enjoying some rainbow enrichment in celebration,” the post stated. “Cosley Zoo is proud to be a safe and welcoming place for families all year!” The post included photos of zoo animals with pride-themed decorative items. Former Illinois state Rep. Jeanne Ives also criticized the zoo in a tweet on June 15. “Wheaton Park District is hiding behind court cases (wrongly, as actual statutory law conflicts) to allow use of locker rooms based on gender identity,” Ives wrote in the tweet. “Essentially saying the courts made them do it. Did the courts make them turn family-friendly Cosley Zoo into a sexual preference promotion site? Utter Lunacy!” Cosley Zoo is home to farm animals and native wildlife. Visitors can explore numerous exhibits that immerse them in natural habitats for white-tailed deer, red fox, Blanding’s turtles, a coyote, and more, according to the zoo’s website. The zoo is also a center for animal education and conservation, offering programs that teach young and old how to care for the world around them and give back to the communities in which they live, work, and play, the zoo’s website states. The zoo is part of the Wheaton Park District.)

DUPAGE POLICY JOURNAL
— Ives to Gov. Pritzker: ‘In other words, qualifications don’t matter.’ (COMMENT: Democrats ever-increasingly drop hiring, retention, and promotion standards and use Affirmative Action, Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion a) to not hire Republicans, b) to not retain Republicans, c) to not promote Republicans, and d) to get rid of Republicans. It is called patronage, political affiliation, reverse discrimination, and age discrimination. I should write a book about how my Democrat superiors in the federal government used the aforesaid, up-or-out, and Republican-led budget cuts a) to waste my four job-related college degrees, b) to waste my six job-related professional certifications, and c) to waste my job-related professional license.)
https://dupagepolicyjournal.com/stories/644494905-former-illinois-house-member-jeanne-ives-to-gov-pritzker-in-other-words-qualifications-don-t-matter
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Political commentator and former Illinois House member Jeanne Ives went on Twitter June 19 to criticize Gov. J.B. Pritzker’s statement on equity being the cornerstone of state hiring. “‘Equity needs to be the cornerstone of the state’s workforce if we want to effectively serve the diverse needs of the people of Illinois,’ said Governor JB Pritzker,” Ives tweeted. “In other words, qualifications don’t matter. No wonder, the tollway sent us 5 transponders when we only ordered one.”)
