— Political parties exist to help elect candidates who can and will defend and advance their platform. The Republican Party platform is conservative. What do Republican candidates, elected officials, and party leaders have to do to turn Illinois, DuPage County, Milton Township, and Wheaton red? They have to defend and advance conservative principles, that is, they have to defend and advance the Republican Party platform including its 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. They have to show how following conservative principles helped them succeed. They have to stop being Democrat Lite. They have to stop being anti-conservative. – Dave Diersen

— How have following conservative principles helped you succeed? My following conservative principles helped me a) earn a bachelor’s degree when I was 21 and master’s degrees when I was 27, 31, and 48, b) earn professional certifications when I was 30, 32, 41, 45, 47, and 48, and c) earn a professional license when I was 32. My following conservative principles helped me buy news cars when I was 17, 19, 20, 23, 25, 29, etc., buy real estate when I was 24, 25, 27, 29, and 35, get married when I was 29, etc. – Dave Diersen

DAILY HERALD
— FRONT PAGE TOP OF FOLD WITH BIG PICTURE: Democrat leaders crow about their success in defeating Republican township candidates. I should compare and contrast the eight Democrat Milton Township candidates who won with their eight Republican opponents who lost. For the April 1 election, what if Republican candidates, elected officials, and party leaders had promoted Trump’s policies as strongly as Democrat candidates, elected officials, and party leaders demonized, denigrated, and condemned Trump’s policies?
https://www.dailyherald.com/20250412/news/suburban-blue-wave-hits-township-races/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Suburban Democratic leaders say anger over the policies of President Donald Trump’s administration helped spur voters to action. “The best way to go against Trump and Musk is to put Democrats in office,” said Mark Guethle, chairman of the Democratic Party of Kane County. He said the township wins will help Democrats build a bench of candidates for future races for higher office. “Eventually, those people move up,” Guethle said. . .DuPage GOP leader Kevin Coyne said Republican candidates “ran good campaigns” but faced a “perfect storm of issues,” including an infusion of cash from the Democratic Party of Illinois to help bolster their candidates, the Trump factor, a demographic shift in the state as Republicans leave Illinois and being outpaced by Democrats in vote-by-mail ballots. . .McCollum, however, pointed to Election Day tallies and noted the majority of Democrats in contested races fared better when just looking at in-person Election Day vote tallies. He argued the bigger issue in the local races was Trump. . .Newly elected township officials plan to use these wins to focus on issues such as mental health care or other social assistance programs — services Democratic leaders fear may suffer under Trump’s administration.)

— If you asked the Republican candidates on the ballot in your precinct who lost why they lost, what would they say? If you asked the leaders of your Republican township and county party organizations and the leaders of the Illinois Republican Party why Republican candidates lost, what would they say? What impact will April 1, 2025 Republican losses have on the November 3, 2026 election? How strongly will qualified Republicans be discouraged to run? – Dave Diersen
http://www.gopillinois.com
— What do your critics/opponents attribute their successes to? My critics/opponents attribute their successes to meritocracy. But they attribute my successes to my benefitting from discrimination against those who share their demographics. My critics/opponents are liberal/moderate, minority, female, younger, veteran, non-Protestant, non-German American, and/or have ancestors who have not been in America for a long time. In my defense, my parents never attended college. My father was only the first of my ancestors to earn a high school diploma. My mother never attended high school. I had to work my way through college. I should write about my critics/opponents. I would focus on those whose parents were wealthy, who bought them cars, who paid for their college education, who got them jobs, etc. I would focus on those who have lots of religious, government, political, and/or financial clout in Wheaton, Milton Township, DuPage County, and Illinois. I would focus on those who have had their operatives and their dupes take the most/biggest adverse actions against me lately. – Dave Diersen

There will be more and more and more dependency on government and charity, LGBTQ, abortion, mass/illegal immigration, booze, gambling, pot, prostitution, and other vices, and diminishment of Second Amendment rights. There will be more and more and more Affirmative Action and DEI, that is, there will be more and more and more race and gender based preference giving, patronage, political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, age discrimination, religious discrimination, and notional origin discrimination. – Dave Diersen

How successful were your Republican township candidates? Ever since my wife and I moved to Milton Township in 1978, all of the Milton Township elected officials have been Republican. Since 2000, as a Republican Precinct Committeeman, I have done much to help elect and reelect Republican Milton Township candidates, including hand-delivering their campaign literature to the residences in my precinct (currently 400) that have at least one Republican or one Independent registered voter.

— Democrats run the federal government. Democrats do not want Republicans to audit Democrats. GAO audits federal agencies including IRS. To get rid of me when I was 49 years old in 1997, my Democrat GAO superiors forced me to retire and forced the Civil Service Retirement System to pay me $5,565/month, or $66,780/year, or $1.8 million so far in today’s dollars to not work. I have always been a Republican. In 1997, I was a licensed CPA and a Certified Internal Auditor, Fraud Examiner, Government Financial Manager, Financial Services Auditor, and Forensic Accountant. I had master’s degrees in business, accounting, and finance. I had worked for GAO for almost 18 years, the last 11 years of which at the GS-13 Step 1-10 Levels, currently $117,807-$153,151/year. I had worked for IRS for almost 9 years, the last 5 1/2 years of which at the GS-12 Step 1-5 Levels, currently $99,069-$112,280/year. Democrats do not want Republicans to audit Democrats. – Dave Diersen

NEW YORK TIMES
— FRONT PAGE TOP OF FOLD: ‘Mission South Africa’: How Trump Is Offering White Afrikaners Refugee Status. The United States has banned most refugees, including 20,000 people who were already ready to travel to the United States before Trump took office. But Trump is making one exception. White South Africans seeking asylum in America should be advised that when the next Democrat President is elected, they will be the first to be gotten rid of.

— The unemployment rate for college graduates has risen faster than for other workers over the past few years. How worried should they be? To hire, retain, and promote more young minorities and more young females, my superiors in the federal government ever-increasingly lowered standards. Because I am a White male, that ever-increasingly rendered worthless my three job-related master’s degrees, my six job-related professional certifications, and my job-related professional license.

WASHINGTON POST
— States rush to hire federal workers out of work after DOGE cuts. As the Trump administration’s cuts to federal agencies left tens of thousands of workers in limbo, state and local governments began to recruit them. Democrat and RINO employers do not want to hire Republicans. After the Democrats who ran GAO forced me to retire when I was 49 years old in 1997, the following did want to hire me: other federal agencies, Illinois, DuPage County, Milton Township, and Wheaton.

— The Trump administration has paused Green Card processing for certain immigrants, including approved refugees. With Indian asylum seekers in the U.S. rising from 9,000 in 2018 to 51,000 in 2023—a 466% increase—this move could leave many in limbo. How will it impact Indians?
