CHICAGO TRIBUNE
— FRONT PAGE TOP OF FOLD WITH BIG PICTURE IN NAPERVILLE SUN: After decades of red, 2024 election shows DuPage County now ‘reliably blue’ (COMMENT: Political parties exist to help elect candidates who can and will defend their platform. The Republican Party platform is conservative. I have been deeply involved with Republican politics in DuPage County since 2000. At least since 2000, leaders of the DuPage County Republican Central Committee (DCRCC) have rejected some, many, most, if not virtually all the planks in the Republican Party platform. Yes, Democrats have ever-increasing invaded the county. But DCRCC leaders have ever-increasingly become more Democrat Lite, more RINO, more anti-conservative, more anti-Trump, and more anti-Republican. They boycotted the Illinois Republican Party State Convention in Collinsville this year and removed me from its Platform and Resolutions Committee. I should write about those past and present DCRCC leaders who have taken the most/biggest adverse actions against me since 2000.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: Earlier this month, 11 elected officials were sworn into DuPage County offices. Of those, nine were Democrats. In the wake of November’s general election, DuPage County — once a Republican stronghold — seems to have definitively shifted left, experts and observers say. “I think we have strong evidence suggesting that we can now say DuPage is reliably blue,” said Melissa Mouritsen, a political science professor at College of DuPage. From federal races to county contests, the 2024 election saw the Democratic Party come out strong across DuPage. Voters favored the Democratic candidates in four of five congressional races that reached into the county. Democrats also captured a larger share of the county’s vote in three of four state senator races and 12 of 16 state representative races. County-wide, three-term DuPage County Coroner Richard Jorgensen was unseated by Democratic challenger Judith Lukas. Democratic incumbents prevailed in their reelection bids for circuit clerk and auditor while the Democratic candidate clinched a win in the race for recorder. On the DuPage County Board, a Democratic challenger unseated her Republican predecessor, while other Democratic incumbents held onto their seats, leaving the body with 12 Democrats, six Republicans and a Democratic chair. Eighteen years ago, not one Democrat sat on the board. Change in course  For more than a century, DuPage County was undeniably Republican. But over the past two decades — particularly the past six years — Democrats have incrementally loosened the GOP’s grip on the county. In 2006, the county had an entirely Republican 18-seat board. Over the next 10 years, Democrats grew to have a small presence on the body. But then the tide really started to change. In 2018 alone, the body added six Democrats to the mix. That same year, Jean Kaczmarek was elected clerk, making her the first Democrat to snag a county-wide office in DuPage since 1934. (BAR CHART) By 2020, Democrats picked up four more seats on the board, flipping the majority in their favor. Two years later, voters elected the board’s first Democratic chair in at least three-quarters of a century. It all pointed to a change in course. Still, even when Democrats took control of the board four years ago — something that hadn’t happened since the 1930s — questions loomed: was DuPage County really blue? Was it purple? Will it last? November’s election, though, dealt answers, observers say. That’s even despite Vice President Kamala Harris at the top of the ticket underperforming President Joe Biden by nearly three points. “I think it’s enduring change,” Mouritsen said. And it comes down to there being a greater shift in what the electorate is thinking, meaning residents “by and large more identify as Democrats,” she said. Mouritsen, in part, attributes the change to secular shift, including demographics and that “we’re seeing more people move to DuPage from Cook County, who bring their politics.” Another factor is mapmaking, Mouritsen said. Favorable political districts for Illinois Democrats starting in 2010 gave way to Democratic gerrymandering in DuPage, she said. A third component has been just work of the party itself. Mouritsen called the trio of factors “three legs of a table,” all contributing to Democrats’ ascendancy in DuPage. Then, six years ago, the change — already in the making — hastened with something Mouritsen dubbed the “Trump effect.” Repudiation  In the 2016 presidential election, Donald Trump received 39% of the county’s vote, nearly nine points less than Mitt Romney four years prior. Locally, there appeared to be an aversion to Trump, Mouritsen said. “(I would say) there was a strong contingent of Republicans in DuPage County who felt that way,” she said, adding that in turn helped to spur on the blue shift already taking root in the county. Former DuPage County Board Democrat Elizabeth “Liz” Chaplin says that she has likewise found that, “(With) what we’re hearing at the national level … a lot of people just don’t like this rhetoric (and) I think that really helped us resonate with the voters.” Chaplin was first elected to the board in 2012. She retained her seat for 12 more years before leaving to successfully run for county recorder this year. “I mean, from 12 years to where we are today, I never thought it would have turned this quickly,” she said. To her, Trump’s first term is the “prevailing factor” in propelling that flip, she said. Jennifer Zordani, who was the acting chair of the Democratic Party of DuPage County until mid-November, likewise thinks repudiation has played an important part in change, she says, though less so in direct response to Trump and more against extremist ideology in general. “I don’t know if it’s as much the repudiation of Trump … (as it is) a repudiation of extremists on issues,” she said. Where Zordani and Chaplin do align is their belief in where the past few years have landed DuPage today. “I believe it is solidly blue,” Zordani said. Chaplin echoed, “I do see (the county) as truly blue.” Across the aisle, though, observations diverge. ‘Green wave’ James Zay, a DuPage County Board member since 1999 and chairman of DuPage County Republicans, says he wouldn’t call recent change a blue wave but a “green wave.” “Democrats are outspending us probably 10 to one at least in all of these House and Senate races and on media on Chicago markets. … And you can’t tell me it doesn’t have an effect down ballot,” Zay said. Democrats had a hefty financial advantage in state legislative races, with the House Democrats’ campaign organization and the state party funneling millions of dollars to candidates facing potentially tough Republican competition. As far as other potential down-ballot effects, Zay dismissed the notion that Trump is a deterrent for local Republicans. There were more requests for Trump signs ahead of November’s election than he’s seen before, Zay said. Speaking to the GOP’s broader trajectory both in the years leading up to November and going forward, Zay did recognize there is work ahead for the party. Namely, building Republicans’ stronghold back from the ground up. DuPage Republicans in recent years have lost a once-strong pipeline for up-and-coming candidates, Zay said. Of late, the party hasn’t “done a good job of bringing people up from park district boards and municipal boards” for higher office, he said. It needs to build a farm system again, he noted. In Zay’s estimation, the county these days is more purple than firmly blue. “I would definitely say it’s a 60-40 (Democrats to Republicans) county right now,” he said. But that split, as the past few years have shown, is subject to change, he added. “It could turn at any time. I mean, who knows, you know?” A blue future? The durability of Democrats’ momentum in DuPage is hard to pinpoint, according to Stephen Maynard Caliendo, dean of the College of Arts and Sciences at North Central College. Caliendo, who is also a professor of political science, expects the shift to persist for some time, though that doesn’t mean it will never swing back, he said. There are a few factors, again, playing to Democrats’ favor. One is incumbent advantage, Caliendo says. Another is the party’s power statewide, he said, especially when it comes to redistricting. “With a state that is always in control by Democrats, it’s very unlikely … that they’re going to” realign districts in a way that’s going to put them — candidates in DuPage included — at a disadvantage, he said. What could make a difference is the country’s larger political environment, Caliendo said. “The reason why I might be wrong,” he said, “is because we may be seeing a fundamental realignment of the parties … and what I mean by that is I don’t know if the Republican Party can survive Trump in the form that it had taken since 1980.” If that’s the case, Caliendo continued, “everything I said about redistricting and whatever is not going to make any difference because people who used to vote Democrat might vote Republican” and vice versa. For now, what DuPage Democrats can — and should do — is avoid complacency, Chaplin and Zordani advise. “We’re still growing. … We can’t rest on our laurels,” Chaplin said. “I think we have to continue to work to let people know who we are,” Zordani added, “(and) what we’re doing. … We are solidly blue, but it would never ever be something I would take for granted.”)

— More than a million Venezuelans have been allowed into the US in the time President Joe Biden has been in office.  A staggering 1,022,409 citizens of the South American country have been encountered at the southern border or granted admission into the US through one of  Biden’s immigration programs, according to federal government statistics from 2021 through October of this year. This citizenship is particularly important because Venezuelans have largely fueled the crisis at the border for the last four years – from asylum-seekers fleeing the communist regime back home to the Tren de Aragua members who have unleashed a wave of crime in American cities.

https://www.latimes.com/opinion/story/2024-10-23/devin-nunes-donald-trump-truth-social-california-congress-robin-abcarian
(FROM THE ARTICLE:  I’ve followed Nunes’ career as an ultra-litigious Trump defender who is afflicted by a world-class intolerance for perceived slights. Before taking the helm of Trump Media in 2022, Nunes had a master’s degree in agriculture but little hands-on business experience. He was involved in his family’s San Joaquin Valley dairy farm decades ago; when he was 14, he has recounted, he bought seven head of young cattle to raise and sell. I guess this explains his tolerance for the, ah, stench of MAGA bull. Given his disdain for media in general and free speech in particular, as evidenced by a series of lawsuits against news organizations and other critics, putting Nunes in charge of a fledgling media empire was a bizarre move — unless the company is all about cozying up to the deep-pocketed sort of people who would benefit from a second Trump administration. According to documents obtained by ProPublica, an unnamed Trump Media whistleblower recently asked the company’s board of directors to fire Nunes. One person with knowledge of the situation told ProPublica that the complaint alleged “misuse of funds, hiring of foreign contractors and interfering with product development.” (A Trump Media spokesperson denied the charges and accused the nonprofit journalism organization of a campaign to damage the company.))

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.

In today’s dollars, I earned a) $12.41/hour 1964-1966, b) $18.99-$20.25/hour 1966-1969, c) $54,728-$110,020/year 1971-1980, and d) $87,024-$150,075/year 1980-1997. In my defense, I earned a) a high school diploma in 1966, b) a job-related bachelor’s degree in 1970, c) job-related master’s degrees in 1976, 1980, and 1997, d) job-related professional certifications in 1979, 1981, 1990, 1994, 1996, and 1997, and e) a job-related professional license in 1981. I should write about my critics/opponents. I would focus on what they did to qualify themselves for better paying jobs. – Dave Diersen

— Have you taken bad jobs? According to my critics/opponents, all the jobs that I had were bad jobs that they would never stoop to take. I did yard work 1962-1964, delivered newspapers 1962-1966, washed dishes 1964-1966, cleaned golf shoes, chipped slag, and 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 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. – Dave Diersen

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.)

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.)

— Trump wants to cut federal employees. I worked for the Democrats who ran GAO for almost 18 years, IRS almost 9 years, and the Post Office almost 3 years. I was always on my Democrat superiors’ lists of employees who they wanted cut. I was able to survive that long because I earned a) a job-related bachelor’s degree when I was 21, b) job-related master’s degrees when I was 27, 31, and 48, c) job-related professional certifications when I was 29, 32, 41, 45, 47, and 48, and d) a job-related professional license when I was 32. – Dave Diersen

— 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

https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/politics/disgusting-ex-gop-rep-shreds-elon-musk-s-dangerous-attack-on-civil-service/ar-AA1uSZTX
(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.)
— Is this the list of federal employees whom Elon Musk, Vivek Ramaswamy may fire? Here’s the truth. (COMMENT: While I worked for the Democrats who ran the federal government for almost 30 years, I was always on their fire lists. In today’s dollars I earned $150,075/year when I was 49, $110,020/year when I was 31, $97,079/year when I was 25, $54,728/year when I was 22, and $18.09/hour when I was 16.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: The viral list stemmed from X and DOGE has not issued any such list. The information shared on the screenshot are also from government records. For example, an X post said, “Nancy Pelosi’s niece should not be paid $181,648.00 by the US Taxpayer to be the ‘Climate Advisor’ at HUD.”)

— 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, while I was a federal employee, I earned a) a job-related bachelor’s degree, b) three job-related master’s degrees, c) six job-related professional certifications, and d) a job-relater professional license. I should write about my critics/opponents and what they did to qualify themselves for better paying jobs.)
https://www.fedweek.com/fedweek/pay-gap-narrows-a-little-following-raise-early-this-year/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Federal employees now lag private sector employees in comparable jobs in pay by 24.72 percent on average, according to the latest figures from the Federal Salary Council—down from the 27.54 percent average it reported last autumn—following the average 5.2 percent average raise paid at the start of this year.)

EDUCATION WEEK
— What a National School Choice Program Under President Trump Might Look Like. His pick for education secretary has spoken favorably of school choice for years, and there’s more GOP support for it than ever. (COMMENT: My parents sent me to Missouri Synod Lutheran Grade Schools and that had a tremendous impact on me. That put me on a track to take college preparatory courses in high school, to get an ACT score of 24, to graduate in the upper 20% of my class, to earn a bachelor’s degree, to earn three master’s degrees, to earn six professional certifications, to earn a professional license, etc.  But my parents had less money because they sent my brother and me to Missouri Synod Lutheran Grade Schools. I had to work my way through college.)

Between 661 and 425 voted for the other Republican candidates on the ballot.

— 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

— Trump wins Arizona, reversing the state’s blue trend
https://www.chicagotribune.com/2024/11/09/donald-trump-wins-arizona/
— According to Democrat leaders, Republicans marginalize groups. How many marginalized groups are you a member of? According to Democrat leaders, you are marginalized if you are liberal/moderate, Democrat, minority, female, younger, have less money than others, non-Protestant, non-German American, and/or if your ancestors have not been in America for a long time.

— Why do people vote for Democrat candidates? From what I see, it is to punish Trump and/or they want more dependency on government and charity, LGBTQ, abortion, mass/illegal immigration, booze, gambling, pot, and other vices, diminishment of Second Amendment rights, and Affirmative Action and DEI, that is, race and gender based preference giving, patronage, political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, age discrimination, religious discrimination, and national origin discrimination. That is, they want more poverty and crime.

— Who do you know who is/was a union member? I was a union member for almost 12 years 1966-1969 and 1971-1980. I should write about my critics/opponents who have used that against me the most. They hint/imply/argue/shout I was grossly overpaid because of my union membership. My salary increased from $18.99/hour to $110,020/year in today’s dollars. I my defense, during that time, I earned a job-related bachelor’s degree, a job related master’s degree, a job-related professional certification, and I almost completed the requirements for a second job-related master’s degree. Virtually none of my coworkers did anything to qualify themselves for promotions. If I had been a Democrat, minority, female, and/or veteran, my salary increase would have been much greater.

— Wheaton business owner faces backlash, garners support for public show of support for President-elect Trump
https://www.nbcchicago.com/news/local/suburban-business-owner-faces-backlash-garners-support-for-public-show-of-support-for-president-elect-trump/3596501/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: A small business in suburban Wheaton is facing controversy after showing their support for President-elect Donald Trump in wake of the 2024 election. Moveable Feast, a Latino-owned family business, put up a banner in front of the restaurant that reads “Jesus is my savior” and “Trump is my president.” “I grew up in Wheaton my whole life, so it was a little shocking to be honest because you know you can have different opinions, that’s fine, that’s what America is founded on and you’re allowed to have our own opinions,” Matthew Marquez, the restaurant’s owner, said. Marquez said he opened the business’ doors six years ago, building their restaurant on their faith. On Friday afternoon, the eatery was bustling with customers expressing their support and right to free speech. “I feel like we are who we are unapologetically, and we didn’t intend to offend anyone,” he said. “I thought maybe it would be a few people, who would walk by kinda look at the sign and frown at it or give it a thumbs up and then move on, but it came way more than that really quicky.” Two weeks before the election, the owner put up a “Make America Healthy Again” poster, and since adding the banner, the owner said they’ve received more than 500 hateful messages and comments from customers by phone and across social media. “A lot of people are saying: four letter words you lost my business, thank you for posting this, I appreciate what racist would announce themselves,” he shared. “I won’t be spending money in your establishment—I’ll let everyone know now to give money to support a convicted felon.” Marquez said longtime customers cut ties with them and cancelled catering orders. “I’ve spoken to many of these people over the past six years and they never have called me a racist, a woman-hating pig, but when I put that sign up all of a sudden, that’s what people said,” he said. “I think people know our true hearts and that’s why they’re supporting us.” The owner said business is up almost 50% since putting up the banner. Customers from different suburbs have been showing their support after hearing about the hate messages. “A lot of times people feel they have to be silent,” Jasmine Dolce, a first-time customer said. “They can’t support who they want to support, and they went out there and they put themselves out there and I’m really glad they did.” “That’s a big swing with a business to kind of take a side,” Bianca Stone, another first-time customer said. “But I realize that they’re also part of the silent majority.” The owner is overwhelmed and thankful for the support from customers from both sides of the aisles and said he doesn’t regret his decision. “Everyone can agree to disagree, that’s a phrase that seems like it’s gone out of the window,” he said. “But whether you agree politically or even religiously with what I said, everyone’s entitled to their opinions and that’s what we think and we’re proud to say it.”)
— Trump will name more conservative judges. He may even pick a majority of the Supreme Court. The Supreme Court doesn’t have any vacancies, but Republicans are keeping a close eye on Justices Alito and Thomas for potential retirements in Trump’s second term.

— Controversial signs at Wheaton restaurant ignite support among customers
https://wgntv.com/news/dupage-county/wheaton-restaurant-signs-reaction/
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HxU0CO9S2f0
(FROM THE ARTICLE: A Wheaton restaurant owner was surprised at the reaction he received after posting two signs at his establishment. The community, however, has rallied behind him to show their support. Matt Marquez, owner of Moveable Feast + Company in Wheaton, described the backlash he’s been receiving after installing two signs outside his restaurant earlier this week. “It’s ‘Make America Healthy Again’ which we strongly believe in and we put a picture of our storefront, and then we put another sign that said ‘Jesus is my Savior,’ and ‘Trump is my president,’” Marquez said. He never imagined displaying the signs would provoke hostile reactions. “We started getting tons of messages of just horrible negativity and threats and just really, really bad things and attacking my family personally,” Marquez said. He went and shared the negative feedback on social media. Although he said the criticism was intense at first, the support from customers began pouring in. “You could’ve voted for somebody else in the White House. You still have First Amendment rights. Those rights don’t end because of your feelings,” customer Kim Tameling said. “It takes courage in the world today to stand up for something you believe in and people have against. We just wanted to encourage them,” customer Alicia Piech added. According to Marquez, the beauty of this country lies in the freedom here all can express their beliefs. He believes in the power of having constructive dialogue rather than fueling division or hate. “This is the Wheaton I know, the one that rallies around people,” he said. “I’m happy to have anyone talk about it. I think it’s really something I would love to talk about.” Marquez also shared that while not everyone agrees with the signs, another positive outcome – aside from the overwhelming encouragement – is the sense of unity the signs have created among people with differing opinions, who are now dining together in the same space.)

— Leftists Trying to Destroy Wheaton Restaurant Over Trump Banner
https://www.breakthrough-ideas.com/read/2024/11/07/leftists-trying-to-destroy-wheaton-illinois-restaurant-over-trump-banner
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The day after the election, a local and much-loved restaurant in Wheaton, Illinois put up a banner that says, “JESUS IS MY SAVIOR” on one side and “TRUMP IS MY PRESIDENT” on the other side, with an image of the American flag in between. According to an Instagram post from the owners, the restaurant, Moveable Feast + Co, immediately began receiving hateful comments that included threats of lawsuits and warnings that the restaurant would be put out of business. In addition, the restaurant, owned by Matt and Ashley Marquez, was reported to the health department. It’s safe to assume that these hateful, intolerant, bigoted comments, and threats to destroy the Marquez family’s livelihood came from supporters of the joyful unifier Kamala Harris. Several years ago, I wrote about the “Hate Has No Home Here” yard signs popping up all over Wheaton to sneakily scold and condemn Trump supporters. Sadly, as Matt and Ashley Marquez, parents of four young children, are learning, hate has a home everywhere, particularly wherever leftists live. Here are a few of the ugly ignorant comments, ranging from the vengeful to the vulgar to the childish, that were sent to Moveable Feast: “Good luck! You’ll be closed in a few years.” “Fuck you. You’ve lost my business.” “Thank you for posting this. I really appreciate when racists announce themselves. It makes deciding where to spend my money so much easier.” “I won’t be spending my money at your establishment. I will also let my family and friends know not to give money to someone who supports a convicted felon, a sexual predator, a cheater, and a racist. I’ll also make sure to share on my socials, so that everyone knows what kind of people own this establishment.” “I bet you ate paint chips as a child. Why would you bring politics into your business, no wonder you’ve been struggling. No ones going to feel bad for you when you go under. And btw Trump isn’t going to bail you out.” What these moral ciphers are saying is that if their fellow citizens don’t vote the way the ciphers want, they shouldn’t be able to make a living. So filled with the milk of human kindness and a desire for unity amid diversity. #EPluribusUnum Such actions and words expose common leftist sentiments: They don’t value tolerance or diversity, and they loathe freedom to choose unless they have the unilateral power to circumscribe the choices. Nasty commenter #5, who presumes to know how all people will feel if the Nasties are successful in destroying the Marquez’s business, asks why the Marquez family would bring “politics” into their business. It’s an odd question from a leftist in that leftists have been bringing their politics into their businesses and everyone else’s for years. Leftists have culturally appropriated the entire month of June during which businesses big and small all over the country put up banners, signs, and symbols announcing their reverence for and celebration of leftist theories about sexuality and gender. Leftists have coerced corporate America to indoctrinate employees with CRT/DEI propaganda and advertise those political beliefs. Remember Target? Remember Bud Light? Leftists have coerced all of the entertainment industry to genuflect to the homosexual/trans industrial complex. Now, every streaming series, every movie, and even many children’s programs are politicized with leftist messages about sexuality and gender. I doubt that Nasty #5 objects to any of that politicization of business. Instead, he/she/ze aims his/her/zir ire, virulent hatred, intolerance, bigotry, and destructive impulses straight at a small family-owned business in a small town in the Midwest. Word to Nasty #5: Trump is your president too. Over 72 million of your fellow Americans voted for him, and he is now the president of all Americans. Or do you not accept the results of the election? Nasty #4 libelously called Matt and Ashley Marquez racists. Why would he/she level that peculiar accusation—I mean, other than that’s the go-to ad hominem of leftists these days? Marquez is a Spanish surname and common in Mexico. Maybe Nasty #4 was so busy drowning in his/her leftist tears in his/her safe space that he/she didn’t notice how many Latin and black men and women voted for Trump. Are they racists too? What about the Harris supporters who say all whites are racist? Are those Harris supporters racist? Nasty #4 is so furious at anyone who voted for “a convicted felon, a sexual predator, a cheater, and a racist” that he/she wants to destroy their ability to feed their children. Instead, Nasty #4 wanted Americans to vote for a woman, who lied to the American people repeatedly for years about Biden’s cognitive ability; who supported the corrupt influence-peddler Joe Biden; who supports the unfettered legal right of women to have their offspring—living humans with their own unique DNA and bodies—slaughtered for any or no reason until the day of their birth; who opened wide the border, allowing human traffickers and drug dealers to wreak havoc in America; who wanted struggling American taxpayers to pay to turn prisoners into eunuchs; who wants to allow men to invade women’s sports and private spaces; who has supported economic and energy policies that have left the finances of ordinary Americans in shambles; who is married to a man who knocked up his young children’s nanny and hit his previous girlfriend so hard his assault spun her around; and who opposes school choice. And Nasty #4 wants all Americans who voted for Trump to see their livelihoods go up in flames. That, my friends, is the leftist reimagining of safety, tolerance, diversity, unity, and compassion. If you are in the Wheaton, Illinois area, consider supporting Moveable Feast + Co. Word on the street is the food, service, ambience, and owners are fantastic.)

— Political parties exist to help elect candidates who can and will defend and advance their platform. The Republican Party platform in conservative. RINOs are anti-conservative if not conservative-haters. Republican candidates are going to lose on November 5, 2024. On who/what will RINO leaders of the Illinois Republican Party and your county and township/ward party organizations blame those losses? They will blame Trump. They will blame the personal responsibility, traditional marriage and family, right to life, immigration, illegal drugs, Second Amendment, and equal opportunity (no race or gender based preference giving) planks in the Republican Party platform. They will call for the Republican Party to officially dump the aforesaid planks and to officially dump those who support those planks. Constructively, they will call for the dissolution of the Republican Party. – Dave Diersen

https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/in_focus/3177509/what-maga-gop-will-look-like-post-donald-trump/
(FROM THE ARTICLE:  “There will be a sort of concerted push from GOP elites to try to reestablish a Republican establishment that’s conducive to their interests,” . . . “If social conservatism dies, the Republican Party will die and it won’t stand for anything meaningful,” Terry Schilling, president of the American Principles Project, told the Washington Examiner. Schilling said Trump’s ascendance coincided with a shift in the types of social issues Republicans have viewed as most important. “I think the culture war is changing. I think the ’90s culture war, up until the 2010s, was abortion and gay marriage, and now it’s just going to look a little bit different,” Schilling said. “I think the culture war is going to be much more about protecting children because that’s where the Democrats have gone.” . . . The conservative movement in Washington, D.C., has decided to reject conservatism and embrace being the Democrat lite party, and that has always been a losing solution because you cannot beat the real thing.”)
