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.

— Democrats say “High prices, gaps in availability across Illinois highlight patchwork child care system. ” Since the 1940s, my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes have demonized, denigrated, and condemned me, my father, my mother, and my brother as being undeservedly filthy rich because my father made enough money that my mother could stay home and raise me and my brother. 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. My mother’s employment opportunities were poor because she never attended high school.

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.)

(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.

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.)

DAILY HERALD
— Democrats say that Peter Pettorini, a Round Lake High teacher and Millburn District 24 school board member, is under criminal investigation. Political parties exist to help elect candidates who can and will defend and advance their platform. In Diersen’s opinion, political parties a) should be required to fully investigate candidates who want to run as a member of their party and b) to have the power and to use that power to stop bad candidates from running as a member of their party. But of course, political parties would abuse that power. The Illinois Republican Party, DuPage County Republican Central Committee, and Milton Township Republican Organization (MTRO) have made it extremely clear that if I ran for any kind of government office as a Republican, they would stop me. I should write a book about how MTRO destroyed me when I ran for an open MTRO Treasurer position in 2004. I should write a book about how they ended my service as a) the Republican fundraiser for Wheaton Independence Day parades and fireworks 2005-2019, b) the chairman of TAPROOT Republicans of Illinois 2005-2012, c) a member of the Wheaton Chamber of Commerce Government Affairs Committee 2003-2011, d) the webmaster for MTRO 2008-2010 and 2000-2004, e) a member of the Illinois Center Right Coalition (ICRC) Steering Committee 2003-2007, and f) a member of the American Association of Political Consultants Midwest Chapter board 2001-2004. I should write a book about how they a) almost stopped me from reporting which high-profile Republicans spoke at and attended the February 20, 2023 DeSantis event in Elmhurst, b) ended my bid to be appointed to fill the Wheaton City Council West District vacancy in 2019, c) gerrymandered my precinct in 2015, and d) almost got ICRC to censure me for my GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters in 2006.

FOX ILLINOIS
— Democrats say that a Florida Republican State Senator, Blaise Ingoglia, Spring Hill, has introduced “The Ultimate Cancel Act’ to kill state Democratic Party.” Government is nasty/vicious. Politics is nasty/vicious. Ever-increasingly, Democrats a) paint themselves as having been the Union Army in the Civil War and b) paint Republicans as having been the Confederate Army in the Civil War. Democrats promoted the KKK and Jim Crow laws. I am proud to say that my parents, my grandparents, my great grandparents, and the rest of my ancestors were all Republicans. I should write a book about my Black superiors, Black supervisors, Black coworkers, and Black subordinates in the federal government who rejected tremendous efforts by my Democrat superiors, supervisors, coworkers, and subordinates to paint me as being a White supremacist, Nazi, KKK member, hater, racist, sexist, bigot, and even worse things who should be gotten rid of once and for all.

(FROM THE ARTICLE: The Democratic Party is all but dead in Florida — no Democrat holds a statewide office — and now a state senator who was chairman of the Florida Republican Party is trying to kill it entirely. Sen. Blaise Ingoglia, R-Spring Hill, introduced SB1248 — “The Ultimate Cancel Act” — on Tuesday, “requiring the Division of Elections to immediately cancel the filings of a political party if certain conditions exist.” Among those conditions: “If the party’s platform has previously advocated for, or been in support of, slavery or involuntary servitude.” Southern Democrats wanted to continue slavery during the Civil War. Florida seceded from the U.S. when Republican Abraham Lincoln became president. That was well over 150 years ago. If passed, the new law would take effect July 1 and the Florida Democratic Party would have to reregister. Ingoglia had been a state representative and until recently, chairman of the Florida Republican Party. Last November, the multi-millionaire home builder was elected in an open district representing parts of Citrus, Hernando, Sumter, and Pasco counties. He beat Brian Moore of the Green Party; there was no Democrat in the race. Then, within weeks, he opened a campaign account as a first step in seeking re-election in 2024, according to the state Division of Elections website.)

— Democrats say that student borrowers anxiously await Supreme Court decision on federal loan forgiveness. Did you get a student loan? I did not. I doubt that I could have anyway. I was not “college material.” I only just barely made it into the upper 20% of my high school class. My ACT score was only 24. Neither of my parents attended college. My father was the first of my ancestors to earn a high school diploma. My mother never attended high school. During my junior and senior years in high school and the summer in between, instead of studying, I washed dishes to earn money for tuition and books at UIC and a new 1966 Pontic Tempest Sprint to commute to classes there from my parents’ home in Crete.

CAL THOMAS
— Democrats need a day of atonement (COMMENT: I am proud to say that my parents, my grandparents, my great grandparents, and the rest of my ancestors were all Republicans.)
https://www.lubbockonline.com/story/opinion/2021/06/23/history-and-why-democrats-might-need-day-atonement/5309053001/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: With the creation of June 19th (“Juneteenth”) as a federal holiday, Democrats have one more claim to be the party of civil rights and equal opportunity for African Americans, though most Republicans also voted for the holiday. That claim has been promoted for decades by a compliant media, academia and high-profile politicians, but the facts say otherwise. From Abraham Lincoln’s Emancipation Proclamation in 1863 to the mid-20th century, members of the Democratic Party, dominant in the South due to its opposition to civil and political rights for African Americans,” were on the wrong side of civil rights. Federal troops finally brought the news of emancipation to Galveston, Texas, on June 19, 1865, meeting resistance from plantation owners. This is the same year the Ku Klux Klan was founded. Nathan Bedford Forrest, a Confederate Army general and a Democrat, was the first grand wizard of the KKK, though he tried disbanding it in 1869 after growing critical of its “excessive violence.” The Klan, which numbered 4 million members at its peak, dedicated itself as History.com notes, “to an underground campaign of violence against Republican leaders and voters (both Black and white) in an effort to reverse the policies of Radical Reconstruction and restore white supremacy in the South.” The Washington Examiner cited 12 examples of how Southern Democrats historically opposed civil rights while Reconstruction-era Republicans favored them. The newspaper noted Democrats voted against “every piece of civil rights legislation in Congress from 1866 to 1966.” Congressional Democrats opposed the 13th Amendment, which officially freed the slaves in 1865. Only four Democrats voted for it. Republicans passed the 14th Amendment in 1866, which granted American citizenship to former slaves. Not one of the 56 congressional Democrats voted for the 15th Amendment in 1869, which gave former slaves the right to vote. Republicans backed all the civil rights laws of the 1860s, including the Civil Rights Act of 1866 and the Reconstruction Act of 1867. Their party was founded on an anti-slavery platform. Fast-forward to the 1960s. President Kennedy was reluctant to push too hard for civil rights for fear of losing Southern support. After his assassination, President Johnson claimed Kennedy was passionately for civil rights and used his death to advance legislation in Congress. Once again, powerful Democrats in the South opposed every bill. A Senate office building is named after one of them, Sen. Richard B. Russell of Georgia, leader of the Senate’s Southern caucus. Curious that as statues and memorials depicting former slave owners and those associated with slavery and racism have been removed from various locations, Russell’s name remains on that building. The Examiner noted a PBS program that stated, “The Democratic Party was responsible for passing Jim Crow laws, in addition to Black Civil Codes that forced Americans to utilize separate drinking fountains, swimming polls, and other facilities in the 20th century.” Chief Justice Earl Warren, a Dwight Eisenhower appointee, read the unanimous opinion in Brown v. Board of Education, declaring segregated schools unconstitutional. Eisenhower also ordered federal troops to Little Rock, Arkansas, in the face of opposition to integrating Central High School by Gov. Orval Faubus, a Democrat. Republican Senator Everett Dirksen of Illinois wrote several bills that banned discrimination in housing, culminating in the Civil Rights Act of 1968. Richard Nixon, a Republican, introduced the Philadelphia Plan, the precursor to affirmative action. Republican Ronald Reagan signed legislation establishing the Martin Luther King Jr. national holiday. While Democrats are now claiming another victory for themselves, they might want to consider establishing an additional special occasion. Given their party’s deplorable civil rights record, it could be called a day of atonement.)

— School administrators undermine excellence to promote ‘equity’ ‘Warriors’ are purveyors of racism and discrimination. – Hans von Spakovsky (COMMENT: How soon will Democrats require that those who do the following have to be proportional based on racer: a) pass the CPA examination and b) pass the Certified Internal Auditor examination? 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? For example, if more Asian Americans disproportionally pass the examinations on their first attempt, will points be taken away from them?)

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.)

Finally, although the fight to chair the Republican National Committee continues to heat up ahead of the vote next weekend, Illinois’ top two Republicans— chairman Don Tracy and National Committeeman Richard Porter—seem to be standing by Ronna McDaniel.” (COMMENT: There is a rally for Mendrick tomorrow morning.)

ILLINOIS REVIEW
— How Censuring Anti-Grassroots, RINO State Party Officials Can Help the RNC Start Winning Again
https://www.illinoisreview.com/illinoisreview/2023/01/how-censuring-anti-grassroots-rino-state-party-officials-can-help-the-rnc-start-winning-again.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: In Illinois, after disappointing and humiliating midterm election losses this past November that saw Democrats once again control every statewide office; maintain a supermajority in the Illinois House and Senate; dominate Illinois Supreme Court races; and beat Republicans in winnable congressional races – Republican Party Chairman Don Tracy refuses to step down, despite overseeing a Republican party that deliberately sent mailers attacking conservative grassroots candidates in the primary. In 2002, Don Tracy ran in the Illinois primary for the 50th State Senate District as a Democrat. In 2020, during the height of the pandemic, Tracy’s family-owned business, Dot Foods – where he is an owner, donated to Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden. And new revelations uncovered by Illinois Review show that on September 4, 2020 – just months before his election as chairman of the Republican Party of Illinois, Tracy made a personal donation to Citizens for Judge Emily Sutton – a Democrat running for Circuit Court Judge in the 9th Judicial Circuit. Just prior to Tracy’s donation, Sutton received a boost from two influential Illinois Democrats – US Sen. Dick Durbin, D-IL and US Rep. Cheri Bustos, D-IL, who at the time, was chair of the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee and a close ally of House Speaker Nancy Pelosi. And in the 2022 Illinois governor’s primary, several Republican state party officials, including the general counsel of the Illinois Republican Party John Fogarty and RNC national committeeman Richard Porter supported and endorsed RINO governor candidate Richard Irvin’s campaign, despite Irvin pulling Democratic Primary ballots in 2014, 2016 and 2020. Irvin also spent years praising Democratic Gov. JB Pritzker – referring to him as a “great friend and a great leader.” And in 2020, Irvin attended a Black Lives Matter rally, yelling, “I can’t breathe!” To this day, Porter defends Irvin’s Republican credentials, publicly referring to him as a “great Republican!” as witnessed by over 200 grassroot conservative Republicans during an Illinois Republican State Central Committee meeting in early December. Fogarty served as an attorney representing the Irvin campaign, in addition to being the staff attorney for the IL GOP, and Porter served as “honorary” co-chairman of the campaign, despite Tracy saying the IL GOP was “strictly neutral” during the governor’s primary. In December, Tracy, Porter and Demetra DeMonte, the other RNC national committeewoman, endorsed Romney-McDaniel for re-election as RNC chair. Fox News reported in November that Porter was circulating a support letter for Romney-McDaniel’s re-election bid amongst RNC committeemen. Just recently, Illinois Review published an article after numerous sources confirmed that Porter was quietly whipping votes among Illinois Republican State Central Committee members to amend the Bylaws to provide Porter and DeMonte with third terms as RNC national committeeman and committeewoman. The Bylaws were amended in 2015, as Porter and DeMonte began their first term, to limit national committeeman posts to two, four-year terms. Porter denies that this story is true – telling anyone who will listen that the story is full of lies, yet he refuses to publicly acknowledge that he will not seek a third term, requiring an amendment to the Bylaws. As chairwoman of the RNC, conservative grassroots Republican Harmeet Dhillon will have significant influence over the party’s direction in 2024 and beyond – and if elected, she’ll certainly have her work cut out for her. But ridding our party of RINO’s should be one of her top priorities – and censuring state party officials who hurt the conservative cause, rather than advance it, should be one of her first acts as RNC chairwoman. And Dhillon is well prepared for the task. As President Donald Trump’s lawyer, she has taken on the RINOs — Former Representatives Liz Cheney and Adam Kinzinger — and the rest of the House January 6th Committee in its ongoing witch hunt of the 45th President. Dhillon also waged war against California Gov. Gavin Newsom’s draconian lockdown orders. In actions like these and others, Dhillon has proven that she is the Lion that Republicans need right now. It’s hard enough battling Democrats in any election – it’s even harder when conservative grassroots candidates have to go to battle with their RINO party leaders and the statewide GOP establishment. It’s no wonder a majority of Republicans support replacing Romney-McDaniel as RNC chairwoman – they’re tired of the RINO power grab and losing as well.)

I have been driving cars for 58+ years. I currently own seven cars and an SUV. Politics is nasty/vicious. Government is nasty/vicious. I should write a book about my nasty/vicious critics/opponents and their many press conferences, political events, government events, etc. since 2000 that they did not want me to attend. I would focus on those who would have used a kill switch in my car to stop me from attending if they could have.)
https://www.theepochtimes.com/mkt_app/world-economic-forum-says-the-future-for-cars-is-in-the-cloud_4998526.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Carmakers will be forced by President Joe Biden’s 2021 Infrastructure Act to install new features on cars in the coming years, including breathalyzers, speed limiters, vision and voice trackers and “kill switches” that automatically shut the vehicle off. Arguably, these features can reduce injuries; however, they also involve new surveillance technology that will monitor peoples’ behavior and make decisions for them. There are also concerns that building in controls that are not in the hands of the driver leaves consumers vulnerable to dangerous computer hacks. Like your smart phone today, the car of the future is going to know quite a lot about you. And as the WEF famously stated, “you will own nothing and be happy.”)

NEW YORK TIMES
— COMMENT: Democrats say “A gunman shot to death 10 people and injured at least 10 others on Saturday at a ballroom dance studio in Monterey Park, Calif., a city of about 60,000 people east of Los Angeles. He opened fire as many people in the city, which is predominantly Asian, were celebrating the eve of Lunar New Year. Many of the victims were in their 50s and 60s, said Sheriff Robert Luna of Los Angeles County, though he did not identify them. The gunman, whom the authorities identified as 72-year-old Huu Can Tran, is believed to have then gone to a dance hall in the neighboring city of Alhambra. But he fled, according to the authorities. Officers later found him in a parked van after he reportedly shot himself to death. The gunman used “a magazine-fed semiautomatic assault pistol” that is probably not legal in California, Luna said. His motives remain under investigation.”

NATIONAL REVIEW
— Mass Murder without Guns – CLAYTON E. CRAMER
https://www.nationalreview.com/2019/08/mass-murder-without-guns/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Common methods used throughout our history include axes, hatchets, blunt objects, knives, hanging, drowning, poison gas, poison, fire, and aircraft (and not just on 9/11). Some of the rarer weapons demonstrate that where there is an evil will, there is a way. Scythes. Blowtorches. Of course, the axes and hatchets were around because they were needed in an age when people cooked over wood stoves. I can imagine axe-control fanatics in 1890 arguing that “an axe in your home is more likely to be used against you than against an intruder.” And perhaps it would have been true: The “Church of the Sacrifice” slaughtered dozens of families with their own axes in the early 20th century. Even today, there are a lot of non-firearm mass murders in America: In USA Today’s collection of mass murders for the period 2006 to 2017, nearly a quarter were done without guns. And most of them you have probably not heard about because they do not advance the Left’s cause of disarming the peasants. There’s the 1973 mass murder at a gay bar in New Orleans that killed 32: An ejected customer went down the street and bought a can of cigarette-lighter fluid. And the 87 murdered in New York City in 1990: A guy upset with his ex-girlfriend bought $1 worth of gasoline. In 1986 in San Juan, Puerto Rico, union officers put pressure on an employer by using camp-stove gas to murder 97. On July 5 of this year, a guy in Port Angeles, Wash., burned his trailer, killing his wife and three children. Did you see that on CNN? Nations with strict gun-control laws still have mass murders. One man stabbed to death five people with a kitchen knife at a Calgary party. After the 1996 Port Arthur mass murder, Australia banned most semiautomatic rifles, but they still have mass murders: eight siblings killed in a mass stabbing in Queensland; five bludgeoned to death in Sydney in 2009. Mass murders by arson are also a problem in such countries. Palace Backpackers Hostel in Childers, Queensland, was intentionally burned in 2000, killing 15. The 2011 Quakers Hill Nursing Home fire killed eleven, set by a nurse after police questioned him about drug abuse.)

— COMMENT: Democrats say “Whisper campaign about RNC chair candidate’s Sikh faith roils campaign.” Government is nasty/vicious. Politics is nasty/vicious. I should write a book about those who have used my having been baptized, raised, and confirmed as a Missouri Synod Lutheran against me the most. I would focus on my Democrat superiors in the federal government and anti-conservative and anti-Protestant past and present 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) unsuccessful Republican candidates on ballots in my precinct and their major donors, 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 the aforesaid who have taken the most/biggest adverse actions against me.
https://news.yahoo.com/whisper-campaign-rnc-chair-candidate-235326943.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The focus on Dhillon’s faith hasn’t just come from people supporting McDaniel. In an email sent to an RNC member on Sunday, a purported supporter of “MyPillow” CEO Mike Lindell, who is also running for committee chair, brought up Dhillon’s religion as an issue. The copy of the email, which was provided to POLITICO with the sender’s name redacted, urged the recipient to support Lindell, an “ardent Christian conservative.” “She is an Indian Sikh by birth and heritage, Not of Judeo-Christian worldview,” the emailer wrote of Dhillon. “None of these core character positions aligns with the Republican Party Platform, planks, or conservatism in general.”)

Most commonly, the aforesaid reject the individual responsibility, traditional marriage/family, right to life, immigration, Second Amendment, illegal drugs, and/or equal opportunity (no race or gender based preference giving) planks. I should write a book about the aforesaid. I would focus on the aforesaid anti-conservatives who have taken the most/biggest adverse actions against me since 2000.)

BLOOMINGTON PANTAGRAPH
— COMMENT: Illinois Democrats and Illinois RINOs promote Illinois Republican National Committeeman Richard Porter who drew the most audience criticism as he sought to focus on the need for post-election party unification and “respecting other perspectives” while calling for “no more RINO crap.” I should write a book about RINOs who reject the most planks in the Republican Party platform. 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 leaders of Illinois, DuPage County, Milton Township, Wheaton, Wheaton Park District, and Wheaton Chamber of Commerce, c) Republican candidates on ballots in my precinct and their major donors, political consultants, fundraisers, pollsters, campaign managers, campaign staff members, and campaign volunteers, d) conservative leaders, and e) religious leaders.

— COMMENT: Ever-increasingly, anti-conservative Democrat plants, Libertarian plants, Green plants, Independent plants, and RINOs in Illinois use the Illinois Republican Party’s (IRP) “BIG TENT” policy to destroy the IRP. Political parties exist to help elect candidates who can and will defend and advance their platform. The Republican Party platform is conservative. Needless-to-say, those who reject planks in the Republican Party platform should not be allowed a) to hold leadership positions in the Republican Party or b) run for offices as Republicans. I should write a book about past and present anti-conservative Democrat plant, Libertarian plant, Green plant, Independent plant, and RINO Republican leaders and candidates in Illinois, DuPage County, Milton Township, and Wheaton. I would focus on those who reject the individual responsibility, traditional marriage/family, right to life, immigration, illegal drugs, Second Amendment, and/or equal opportunity (no race or gender based preference giving) planks in the Republican Party platform. I would focus on the aforesaid who have taken the most/biggest adverse actions against me since 2000.

— COMMENT: Illinois Democrats say “GOP TENSIONS: An effort to push out Illinois Republican Party Chair Don Tracy failed Saturday. Party bylaws say a chair can’t be fired just because an election is lost. To his credit, Tracy allowed everyone, even the critics, to get in their two cents. The meeting went four hours with 60 speakers taking the mic. They each got 90 seconds, which irked folks who wanted to speak longer. The discourse revealed a party divided after an election that saw Democrats only tighten their grasp on the state legislature and Illinois Supreme Court. “It hurts because we had such high hopes,” Tracy said in a report by Tribune’s Rick Pearson. The group gathered at the Bolingbrook Golf Club. Mark Vargas, the new owner of the conservative Illinois Review website and friend of Donald Trump, tried rallying opposition to Tracy. “This movement isn’t going away. It is just beginning,” Vargas said, according to Pearson’s report. “Are we better off today than we were six months ago? No. Are you better off today than we were 12 months ago? No.” The audience echoed his “nos.” The call to arms may have ginned up support for Vargas’ media company but not much else. Tracy continues to lead the party along with Vice Chair Mark Shaw, Treasurer Laura Pollastrini and Secretary Jan Weber. And for those wondering, Vince Kolber is the GOP finance committee chair — and he’s been a registered Illinois voter since 1988 (to clarify misinformation that’s been posted in other places). If you’re former Illinois GOP Chair Tim Schneider, we’d like your take on the state of the Republican Party today.” Will Politico Illinois ask me for my take? I served as the chairman of TAPROOT Republicans of Illinois 2005-2012. I have served as the GOPUSA Illinois Editor since 2000. I served as member of the Illinois Center Right Coalition Steering Committee 2003-2007.

ILLINOIS REVIEW
— IL GOP Treasurer to Grassroots During Meeting: “If You Haven’t Donated, Then Why Are You Here?” (COMMENT: My critics/opponents blast me for my not giving them money. In my defense, I give them free GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletter subscriptions that are worth at least $1,000/year. Of course, they demonize, denigrate, and condemn those subscriptions as being worthless.)
https://www.illinoisreview.com/illinoisreview/2022/12/il-gop-treasurer-to-grassroots-during-meeting-if-you-havent-donated-then-why-are-you-here.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: During a quarterly IL Republican Party State Central Committee (SSC) meeting in Bolingbrook on Saturday, approximately 200 conservative grassroots activists filled the room in a stunning display to publicly share their grievances about the disappointing losses during the November 8th election; the lack of support they received from the party; and demanding that chairman Don Tracy resign. The GOP leaders were visibly stunned and far outnumbered, with many of the grassroots activists driving more than five hours to attend Saturday’s meeting. Joining the grassroots were many former GOP candidates, including Lt.Gov. candidate Stephanie Trussell, attorney general candidate Tom DeVore, US Senate candidates Peggy Hubbard and Matt Dubiel, former state senate candidate Christine McGovern, former congressional candidates Ashley Ramos, Rob Cruz, Cathy O’Shea, Jack Lombardi, Nikki Conforti and Jim Marter, and many more. The meeting was long, with many state central committee members praising Tracy during their committee updates and talking about the “red wave” that the GOP experienced in local races in counties like Gallatin, Coles, Hardin, Jefferson and Marion – counties unfamiliar to most people in the room, including SSC members. But the most shocking moment of the day occurred when IL GOP Treasurer and chairman of the finance committee Vince Kolber, a multi-millionaire businessman addressed the crowd bragging about how the party raised $2.2 million this cycle (compared to Pritzker spending $152 million), and then asking the room full of hardworking grassroots conservatives, “I assume all of you have donated to the IL GOP?” And when the room yelled back, “No!” He replied, “No, then what are you doing here?” The belittling and out-of-touch comment drew an immediate reaction from the crowd, still stunned that a GOP leader would say something so offensive to a room full of people where many of them had driven hours, just for their voices to be heard. And sources confirmed to Illinois Review that Kolber is registered to vote in Wisconsin and voted there on Nov. 8th despite serving as a leader of the IL GOP. But the shocking moments were not yet over. Leaping to Kolber’s defense was SSC member and grassroots-supported Jeanne Ives, who screamed, “This is not your problem! This man gave me $750,000 when I ran against Gov. Bruce Rauner!” Ives’ burst drew applause from SSC members, including Tracy, but angered the majority of grassroots in the room. Proving a point that Illinois Review has made many times in previous articles, the IL GOP establishment’s obsession with money. If you don’t donate, you don’t matter. And if you donate, you are somehow immune from criticism and can say anything you want. No wonder the IL GOP can’t win an election – they can’t even win over the grassroots.)

https://www.realclearpolicy.com/articles/2022/12/12/illinois_oligarchy_offers_lesson_for_national_democracy_869586.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Big money has determined the past three gubernatorial election outcomes in Illinois. Gone are the days of the Illinois political machine and blue-dog Democrats who built patronage armies and rank-and-file majorities. Illinois politics is now, more than ever, a dollars and cents game run by an oligarchy of rich insiders. That means Illinois is on its way to being a state where special interests can outweigh the voices of the everyday people – unless the people do something about it. Illinois Gov. J.B. Pritzker makes up the first half of that elite group. The wealthiest sitting politician in the country, Pritzker has broken records by spending a total of $323 million on his past two gubernatorial campaigns – approximately $70 per vote in 2022. Then, he spent millions more to ensure which opponent would win the Republican primary: Darren Bailey, a downstate, conservative farmer perceived as easier to beat than moderate Richard Irvin. If any one person can buy not only their candidacy but also buy their opponent, what true voice do voters have?)

— Feeling Entitled Can Stunt Your Child’s Motivation – David Schwartz (COMMENT: What factors motivated you to take college preparatory courses in high school, to get good grades in high school, to get a good ACT score, and to earn a bachelor’s degree? For me, factors included a) my seeing my father’s increasing regret for not having earned a bachelor’s degree, b) my wanting to show my appreciation to my parents for their sending me to Trinity Lutheran Grade School in Crete 1953-1961 and then to Hope Lutheran Grade School in Park Forest 1961-1962 to stay with the Missouri Synod, c) my knowing that my father’s ability to help me financially was limited because of his having brittle type 1 diabetes from childhood and not having a bachelor’s degree, d) my knowing that his life expectancy was dramatically shortened because of his diabetes, e) my seeing his income being significantly less than our neighbors in Crete who had college degrees, and d) my knowing that my mother’s ability to help me financially was limited by her never having attended high school.)

What do you say to countries that illegally send their citizens to America illegally to illegally serve as spies?
https://www.aol.com/news/book-cuban-privilege-stirs-controversy-192155111.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: “Cuban Privilege: The Making of Immigrant Inequality in America,” by Boston University professor Susan Eckstein, argues that Cuban immigrants who have been coming to the U.S since the 1960s are not genuine refugees nor political exiles since most did not leave the island because they faced persecution.” FROM WIKIPEDIA RE: GERMAN IMMIGRANTS: “They were pulled by the attractions of land and religious freedom, and pushed out of Germany by shortages of land and religious or political oppression. Many arrived seeking religious or political freedom, others for economic opportunities greater than those in Europe, and others for the chance to start fresh in the New World. The arrivals before 1850 were mostly farmers who sought out the most productive land, where their intensive farming techniques would pay off. After 1840, many came to cities, where “Germania”—German-speaking districts—soon emerged.”)

They worked in a brick factory in Chicago until 1854 when they homesteaded a farm in southeast Crete Township. They sold that farm in 1964 and bought 10 acres just north of downtown Crete. They raised and sold horses on those 10 acres, but soon began operating Crete’s only hardware store at the northeast corner of Main and Exchange. They sold and subdivided much of those 10 acres in the 1920s. My grandfather had 1286 Wood Street built on that land in 1926. I lived in that house 1954-1972 and my brother lived in it from 1954 until he recently died. An estate sale is currently in progress and the closing to sell the home has been scheduled.)

I also owned a “poor man’s GTO,” a 1966 Pontiac Tempest Sprint.

— 11 Chevrolet Cruze Facts & Statistics You Should Know – Peter Jones
https://motorandwheels.com/chevrolet-cruze-facts-and-statistics/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: What Is the Typical Buyer Demographic For this Model? The buyer demographic for the Cruze has some pretty interesting qualities, according to our researched information. For instance, Cruze buyers are big fans of the ‘Buy American’ club—over 87% of them prefer to buy American-made vehicles. This is much higher than the average for the compact car segment (40%). Also, Cruze buyers tend to be less affluent compared to other compact car buyers. While median household income for a Cruze buyer hovers around $58,226, the average for compact car buyers is $72,719. Those who buy the Cruze often consider fuel economy and environmental friendliness before buying the vehicle. They are older on average compared to most compact car buyers, with women forming the majority.)

— How Long Do Electric Car Batteries Last? – Dustin Hawley (COMMENT: I bought my 1972 Corvette new in 1971. Its engine continues to start and run just fine. I bought my 1996 Thunderbird LX in 1995. Its engine continues to start and run just fine.)
https://www.jdpower.com/cars/shopping-guides/how-long-do-electric-car-batteries-last
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Generally, electric vehicle batteries last 10-20 years, but some factors may reduce their lifespan. For instance, batteries may degrade faster in hotter climates as heat does not pair well with EVs. Additionally, charging the battery at a Level 3 station can cause the battery to overheat, as the charging process is too quick. This process can negatively affect performance and longevity.)

I earned that degree because my Democrats GAO superiors had assigned me to audits of federal financial industry regulators since 1990 and the courses directly related to my job duties. They had succeeded in keeping me off audits of IRS 1980-1985 and since 1989. GAO audits IRS. I had worked for IRS 1971-1980, the last 5 1/2 years of which at the GS-12 Step 1-5 Levels, currently $88,229-$99,994. My Democrat GAO superiors wasted my knowledge of IRS and forced me to take their early retirement “offer” in 1997 when I was 49 years old.

ILLINOIS FAMILY INSTITUTE
— Wheaton Middle School’s Offensive “Gay” Christmas Display – Laurie Higgins (COMMEMT: Ever-increasingly, to send your child to a public school is to make your child not only an LGBTQer, but also a) anti-White, b) anti-male, c) anti-older people, d) anti-heterosexual, e) anti-traditional marriage and family, f) anti-wealth, g) anti-gun ownership, h) anti-Christian, i) anti-Protestant, j) anti-Italian American and anti-German American, k) anti-those whose ancestors have been in America for a long time, l) anti-conservative, m) anti-patriotism, n) anti-Republican, and/or o) anti-American.)
https://illinoisfamily.org/education/wheaton-illinois-middle-schools-offensive-christmas-display/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: In a brazen act of anti-Christian disrespect and cultural appropriation, Edison Middle School (CUSD 200) in the formerly conservative town of Wheaton, Illinois has chosen to mock a Christian symbol that celebrates the birth of Christ. The DuPage Policy Journal reported that Edison is prominently displaying a full-size rainbow-colored, “gay pride” Christmas tree during the Christmas season in honor of homoeroticism. Originally, the tree also included handmade pink ornaments with the messages “Be Gay Be Slay” and *Gay Panic*. For those not up to date on the sloganeering of the cult of homoeroticism, “Gay panic” refers to a legal defense in which a man claims a kind of temporary insanity for an act of violence committed against another man due to allegedly unwanted homoerotic advances. A Christmas ornament with that slogan is mocking such a legal defense. Both the principal, Rachel Bednar, and superintendent, Jeff Schuler, approve of this offense against Christians. This display raises the question, what do these ornaments and this inappropriate, culturally insensitive tree have to do with the birth of Christ? And if they have nothing to do with Christmas, why a Christmas tree and why now during the Christmas season? Edison Middle School—an arm of the government—has given its stamp of approval to the cultural appropriation of not one, but two Christian symbols: the Christian symbol of the rainbow and the Christian symbol of the Christmas tree. While leftists strain to argue that the Christmas tree is not a religious symbol, honest people acknowledge that for hundreds of years, it has been associated with one religion—Christianity—and one holiday—Christmas. Here’s a thought experiment: During Ramadan, will Bednar and Schuler prominently display a rainbow-colored, “gay pride” 8-pointed star—a common Islamic symbol? What about a rainbow-colored, “gay pride” prayer rug with an image of the mihrab arch? If Edison had Orthodox Jewish students, staff, and faculty, would Bednar permit a rainbow-colored, “gay pride” menorah during Chanukah? A community member offended by the display spoke with Schuler who reportedly asserted that the Christmas tree is not a religious symbol despite being called a Christmas tree and displayed only during the Christmas season. Further, Schuler refuses to have the offensive display removed. The administration did, however, offer this paltry sop to Christians: They removed the offensive ornaments. This is not the first time a CUSD 200 school has demonstrated its ardent support for all things sexually deviant and disdain for Christians in its community. In 2018, Monroe Middle School permitted the walls to be defaced with offensive drawings that children as young as 11 had to see. In 2019, Longfellow Elementary School invited lesbian author and activist Robin Stevenson, who promotes cultural approval of both the “LGBT” ideology and the legalized slaughter of the unborn, to speak to 8-11-year-olds. In August 2022, the CUSD 200 Board of Education voted to keep the egregiously obscene, sexually graphic comic book Gender Queer: A Memoir by Maia Kobabe on district high school library shelves. Public schools have no respect for the religious beliefs, values, and moral convictions of conservative parents. Rather, public schools are downright hostile to conservative beliefs, especially Christian beliefs. Public schools don’t care if conservative students feel “safe.” Public schools don’t care about preserving the modesty and innocence of children. And public schools don’t care if they create division between conservative parents and their own children. Illinois now has multiple laws mandating that public schools introduce, promote, and affirm leftist views on “identity” and sexuality to children starting in kindergarten. There is no way for parents to escape having their children’s innocence stolen and their minds and hearts corrupted in and by public schools. Conservative parents must get their children out of public schools, and churches must help make that happen.)

— Ronna McDaniel locked down votes for RNC chair despite the midterm debacle. Here’s how she did it. – Jonathan Allen and Henry J. Gomez and Allan Smith and Natasha Korecki and Ben Kamisar
https://news.yahoo.com/ronna-mcdaniel-locked-down-votes-140000943.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: An ally, Richard Porter, an RNC member from Illinois, met with her in Washington to make sure she wanted to run for another two-year term. Porter told McDaniel that she’d done a terrific job and that she had a rare ability to walk a high wire between forces who remain loyal to former President Donald Trump and those who don’t, according to two people familiar with their conversation. McDaniel told Porter she would run again if the members of the RNC wanted her to stay. Later that day, he and a small clutch of McDaniel loyalists launched a member-to-member whip operation to gather support. Over the next 10 days, as Republican leaders blamed one another publicly for the disappointing midterm results — with McDaniel absorbing a heavy helping of criticism — Porter’s whip team secured commitments for an endorsement letter from 101 of the RNC’s 168 members.)

AXIOS
— COMMENT: Democrats say “The U.S. cities where immigrants are moving and thriving.” Ever-increasingly, Democrats, Libertarians, Greens, Independents, and RINOs crow about their success in a) destroying traditional marriage, b) destroying the traditional family, and c) discouraging White women from having children.
https://www.axios.com/2022/12/08/immigrants-moving-top-us-cities
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Immigrants already in the U.S. who decide to move are disproportionately heading for Sun Belt metros, according to a new study by the Bush Institute. Why it matters: In recent decades, immigrants in the U.S. have increasingly chosen to live in smaller cities and more suburban areas — spreading demographic and social change across the country. Immigration into the U.S. is critical for population and economic growth — and will be more so as the U.S. population continues to age. Metro areas “experiencing large inflows of foreign born people are benefiting tremendously by attracting these people,” said Cullum Clark, director of the economic growth initiative at the George W. Bush Institute-SMU.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: Younger generations of Americans have visions of early retirement, but what that actually means is an evolving concept. . .Gen Zers’ expectations for early retirement may have less to do with overly confident financial projections, however, and more to do with a fundamental shift in attitudes about what work — and therefore retirement — really is.)

During the Bloomberg New Economy Forum in Singapore, Griffin also discussed how DeSantis’s “winning policies” were able to turn Florida from a purple state to a solidly red one. “I’d like to think that the Republican Party is ready to move on from somebody who has been for this party a three-time loser,” Griffin said in reference to this year’s midterm elections, the GOP losing Georgia’s Senate seats last year, and Trump’s presidential loss in 2020. Griffin, who was Illinois’s wealthiest resident, recently announced that he was moving his firm, Citadel, to the Sunshine State, where he himself has relocated. It wouldn’t be surprising to expect fundraisers and money flowing from Griffin to DeSantis should he decide to run.)

Of course, Democrats will make Republicans pay for illegal immigration, and especially Republicans who share Trump’s demographics: White, male, older, conservative, non-veteran, married, non-poor, Protestant, German American, and/or those whose ancestors have been in America for a long time.)

Kresge in Chicago Heights 1964-1966, for Flossmoor Country Club and for Thrall Car and John’s Sinclair in 1966, for Post Office in Park Forest 1966-1969, for Firestone Stores in Chicago Heights 1970-1972, for IRS in Harvey, Joliet, and Chicago 1971-1980, and for GAO in Chicago 1980-1997. Of course, because I have always been a Republican, my Democrat superiors did everything that they could to turn the aforesaid against me. Further, many of my classmates and instructors were the aforesaid while I attended UIC 1966-1969, NIU 1969-1970, Loyola 1972-1976, DePaul 1976-1980, and IIT 1992-1997.
