GOPUSA ILLINOIS
— OUTRAGEOUS: The Tunes of Glory Pipes and Drums will not march in Wheaton’s 2021 Independence Day Parade and it is still unclear if Wheaton’s high school bands will march in the parade. – Dave Diersen
http://www.gopillinois.com
(THE ARTICLE: Since 2005, DuPage Republicans have donated $2,500/year to help sponsor Wheaton’s Independence Day parades and fireworks. But this year, outrageously, Wheaton stopped accepting sponsorships. For many years, $1,000 of the $2,500 DuPage Republican sponsorships was earmarked for the Tunes of Glory Pipes and Drums. But today, the band advised me that it would not be marching in the parade this year because Wheaton had not invited the band to march, and therefore, it accepted an invitation from Glen Ellyn to march in its parade. The band cannot march in both parades this year because not all of the band’s members are available to march in two parades back to back, and this year, Glen Ellyn’s parade starts at noon, only 1 hour after Wheaton’s parade starts. Wheaton should have contracted with the Tunes of Glory Pipes and Drums and the high school bands to march in Wheaton’s parade months ago with an escape clause if Pritzker banned the parade. Needless-to-say, anyone who tries to blame me for the Tunes of Glory Pipes and Drums not marching in Wheaton’s Independence Day Parade is wrong. Further, anyone who tries to blame me if the Wheaton North and/or Wheaton Warrenville South bands do not march in Wheaton’s Independence Day Parade is wrong.)

Inspired by my executive order last year, Florida, Texas, North Carolina, Oklahoma and other states have already taken steps to pass such laws. It needs to happen everywhere — and Congress should seek to institute a federal ban through legislation as well. Second, each state should create its own 1776 Commission to examine the public school curriculum and ensure that students are receiving a patriotic, pro-American education — not being taught that the United States is an evil nation. Third, parents have a right to know exactly what is being taught to their children. Last year, many parents had the chance to routinely listen in on classes for the first time because of remote learning. As students return to the classroom, states need to pass laws requiring that all lesson plans have to be made available to parents — every handout, article, and reading should be posted on an online portal that allows parents to see what their kids are being taught. Furthermore, in many places, there are rules preventing students from recording what teachers say in class. States and school boards should establish a “Right to Record.” Fourth, parents need to organize locally — in every school district in America — to eliminate “Action Civics” and other versions of the effort to contort traditional civics education into a vehicle for political indoctrination. The left’s new argument is that our “divisions” stem from a lack of “civics education” — a problem they intend to “fix” with lots of new taxpayer money and a redefinition of “civics” in schools, just as they are trying to redefine the meaning of “infrastructure.” Right now, Congress is working on a $1 billion bill known as the Civics Secures Democracy Act. No Republican should trust the Biden administration with a billion dollars to spend on such programs. Even worse, the legislation threatens to establish a de facto national curriculum for history and civics, effectively bribing states into adopting the left’s anti-American curriculum. It is Common Core all over again — but much more extreme. And like Common Core, parents must unite to stop this new federal power grab. Fifth, any parent who objects to the material being taught to their child in public school should get an automatic voucher, empowering them to pick another school of their choice. The government has no right to brainwash students with controversial ideologies against their parents’ will. Sixth, states need to take back control of their schools of education and credentialing bodies to ensure they are not churning out radicalized teachers. To be clear, the overwhelming majority of our nation’s teachers are some of the most selfless and wonderful people there are — but regrettably, many have graduated from extremely biased education schools and may not even be aware of the degree to which leftist ideology has permeated their curriculum. States should set up alternative credentialing bodies that can certify great teachers who know how to instill a sense of love for America. School districts can then make it a priority to hire teachers with these certifications, especially for English, history, and social studies roles. States could even set up their own versions of Teach for America to get passionate and patriotic young people into the classroom. Finally, states need to break the tenure monopoly in public K-12 schools. Tenure was originally supposed to protect competent teachers from being subjected to undue political influence; it has turned into a mechanism to protect incompetent teachers who themselves wield undue political influence over our children. Educators who are alienating children from their own country should not be protected with lifelong tenure; they should be liberated to pursue a career as a political activist. Make no mistake: The motive behind all of this left-wing lunacy is to discredit and eliminate the greatest obstacles to the fundamental transformation of America. To succeed with their extreme agenda, radicals know they must abolish our attachment to the Constitution, the Declaration of Independence, and most of all, Americans’ very identity as a free, proud, and self-governing people. The left knows that if they can dissolve our national memory and identity, they can gain the total political control they crave. A nation is only as strong as its spirit. For our children, we must act before it is too late.)

Most commonly, they reject the traditional marriage/family, right to life, immigration, illegal drugs, Second Amendment, and/or equal opportunity (no race or gender based preference giving) planks. I should write a book about Republican activists, candidates, elected officials, and party leaders in Illinois, DuPage County, Milton Township, and Wheaton who talk and/or act like they seek and/or accept lots of money from major donors who reject the aforesaid planks. Of course, those major donors want to stop me from sending out GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters. Of course, those major donors want the Milton Township Republican Organization, DuPage County Republican Central Committee, Illinois Republican Party, Wheaton Chamber of Commerce, Wheaton Park District, Wheaton Warrenville School District 200, Wheaton, Milton Township, DuPage County, and Illinois to get rid of me. Everyone sees how the aforesaid organizations and governments treat me and treat my GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters.)

This year, they succeeded in ending that sponsorship. If Wheaton’s Independence Day Parade this year has fewer entries, has fewer quality entries, and/or has fewer viewers and if Wheaton’s Independence Day Fireworks this year have fewer vendors and/or fewer viewers, who will be blamed? Democrats, Libertarians, Greens, Independents, and RINOs have always complained about Republicans helping sponsor the parade and fireworks. I should write a book about the lead complainers.)

(DIERSEN: In 1979, when I was 30 years old, I passed the CPA examination on my first attempt. In 1981, I became a licensed CPA. I should write a book about those who have belittled the aforesaid the most. I would focus on my Democrat and GAO supervisors, supervisors, coworkers, and subordinates. I would focus on Democrat plant, Libertarian plant, Green plant, Independent plant, and RINO leaders of the following: Milton Township Republican Organization, DuPage County Republican Central Committee, Illinois Republican Party, Wheaton Chamber of Commerce, Wheaton Park District, Wheaton, Milton Township, DuPage County, Illinois, TAPROOT Republicans of Illinois, Illinois Center Right Coalition, and American Association of Political Consultants Midwest Chapter. I would focus on Republican candidates on ballots in my precinct, their major donors, their political consultants, their fundraisers, their campaign managers, their campaign staff members, and their volunteers.)
https://www.icpas.org/information/professional-issues/decoding-the-decline
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Earning the CPA credential has historically been one of the most notable ways to establish a professional identity and exhibit a high level of competence in the accounting profession, yet we are witnessing a nationwide decline in not just new CPAs but also accounting program enrollments.
With input from various regional and national stakeholders, we developed a survey targeted toward accounting students, graduates, and professionals under the age of 35—including CPAs and non-CPAs—with the aim of gaining insight into what is truly driving the decline in individuals pursuing the CPA credential and understanding why so many accounting students and young professionals either do not finish the CPA exam or never take it at all. In this eye-opening 2021 Insight Special Feature, the Illinois CPA Society shares its survey findings, decoding the decline of new CPAs by revealing the real reasons accounting students, graduates, and young professionals are not pursuing the CPA credential like they used to.)

— How to Face a Potentially Fortified I.R.S. – Paul Sullivan
(DIERSEN: GAO audits IRS. Before I transferred from IRS to GAO in 1980 when I was 31 years old, 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 $85,935-$97,395/year. My Democrat GAO superiors wasted my knowledge of IRS. But they did let me work on audits of IRS’s Criminal Investigation Division 1986-1989 when I was at the GS-13 Step 1-3 levels, currently $102,188-$109,001/year. I should write a book about those in Illinois who have wasted my knowledge of IRS the most. I would focus on my a) Democrat GAO superiors and b) Republican U.S. Senators and U.S. Representatives, candidates for the aforesaid positions, their major donors, their political consultants, their fundraisers, their staff members, and their volunteers. I would focus on the aforesaid who have demonized, denigrated, and condemned my knowledge of IRS the most.)
