WNOI
— FREEDOM CAUCUS SHUT OUT (COMMENT: I should write about leaders of the following who shut out conservatives: Illinois Republican Party, DuPage County Republican Central Committee, and Milton Township Republican Organization. I would focus on the aforesaid who have taken the most/biggest adverse actions against me since 2000.)
http://wnoi.com/onlinenews/wnoinews.exe?ID=53155
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Despite public comments to the contrary, the Illinois House Minority Leader has telegraphed her unwillingness to heal the fractured Illinois Republican Party by rejecting serious efforts from the Illinois Freedom Caucus to promote party unity. During a recent exchange, the Minority Leader declared her unwillingness to accommodate or collaborate with this influential conservative wing and has even refused to give the Illinois Freedom Caucus a voice in the decision-making process. The Illinois Freedom Caucus, which represents a substantial contingent of principled conservatives across the state, champions fiscal responsibility, personal freedom, and accountability in government. Its members and allies are dedicated to upholding the values shared by many Illinois families and voters who feel abandoned by establishment politicians. The refusal of leadership to engage with the Freedom Caucus signals a troubling disregard for the diversity of thought and values within the Illinois House Republican Caucus. At a time when voters are demanding a unified and effective opposition to the radical left’s political agenda in Illinois, this decision undermines efforts to collaborate and build a stronger, more robust party. “Leadership requires listening to all voices within our party, especially those who bring energy, passion, and principled conservatism. By sidelining the Freedom Caucus, the Minority Leader is not only silencing the voices of conservative lawmakers, but also the voters we represent. This is a disservice to the people of Illinois and a missed opportunity for true unity and accountability. Moving forward, the Illinois Freedom Caucus will continue to fight for the principles that resonate with grassroots voters statewide, and the true base of the Illinois Republican Party. While the Minority Leader’s actions may seek to silence conservative voices, the Freedom Caucus will not be deterred in its mission to advance common-sense policies and stand as a bold voice for the people of Illinois.” The Illinois Freedom Caucus is comprised of State Representatives Chris Miller, chairman; Blaine Wilhour, vice-chairman; Adam Niemerg; Brad Halbrook; Jed Davis; David Friess and State Senator Andrew Chesney. The members of the Illinois Freedom Caucus are members of the Illinois General Assembly who are advocating for limited government, lower taxes and accountability, and integrity in government.)

— Why did you vote for Trump? I voted for Trump because the Republican Party platform is conservative and Trump ran as a Republican. I owe all my successes in life to my following conservative principles. If I had not followed conservative principles, I would not have been able to earn a bachelor’s degree when I was 21, master’s degrees when I was 27, 31, and 48, professional certifications when I was 30, 32, 41, 45, 47, and 48, and a professional license when I was 32. I would not have been able to buy new cars when I was 17, 19, 20, 23, 25, 29, etc. I would not have been able to buy a new town home when I was 24 and condos when I was 25 and 27. I would not have been able to get married and buy a home with my wife when I was 29 and have one built with her when I was 35. – Dave Diersen

https://www.marinecorpstimes.com/opinion/2025/01/14/hegseths-track-record-falls-short-of-military-standards-dem-senators/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: While we respect his service in the Army Reserve and National Guard, he did not rise to a command position where he would learn the management, joint forces operations, logistics and other skills relevant to the role he’s up for now. He never commanded a task force or a detachment — nothing near the scale or scope of the 3 million people who make up the DOD. These military experiences aren’t requirements for the job, but his civilian leadership experience is not just limited, it is also fraught with evidence that he is not an effective or trusted leader. He financially mismanaged two veterans political organizations, with his staff alleging that he misused funds, was frequently drunk in front of them and fostered an environment where sexual harassment was an issue. He spent the last seven years as a Fox News host, where his alcohol consumption was also a concern among his co-workers. We would not tolerate this kind of reckless behavior from recruits — there is absolutely zero reason we should tolerate it from the man who is supposed to be their leader.)

— Now that Trump has won, how do you predict that the hate-filled Trump-hating Trump-haters in Illinois, your congressional district, your county, your township, your municipality, your school district, and your precinct will react? Will their hatred against Trump grow and grow and grow? From what I see, Republican Precinct Committeemen/Captains are the easiest targets for their hatred. How strongly will the leaders of the Illinois Republican Party and your Republican county/township/ward organizations come to their defense? I have been a Republican Precinct Committeeman since 1999. 478 voted for Harris in my precinct. – Dave Diersen

— Who will Trump appoint to be the next U.S. Comptroller General, that is, who will Trump appoint to be the next head of GAO? The U.S. Comptroller General’s term of office is set statutorily at 15 years and they are not eligible for reappointment. I worked for GAO for almost 18 years 1980-1997, the last 11 years of which at the GS-13 Step 1-10 Levels, currently $115,439-$150,075/year. – Dave Diersen

(FROM GAO’S WEBSITE at https://www.gao.gov/about/comptroller-general : How the Comptroller General is Selected The Congress established the current procedure for nominating a Comptroller General when it passed the GAO Act of 1980. Under the act, the Comptroller General is appointed by the President with the advice and consent of the Senate. When a vacancy occurs in the office of the Comptroller General, the Congress establishes a commission to recommend individuals to the President. The commission consists of the following: The Speaker of the House of Representatives, The President Pro Tempore of the Senate,
The majority and minority leaders of the House of Representatives and the Senate, The Chairman and Ranking Member of the Senate Committee on Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs, and The Chairman and Ranking Member of the House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform. The commission must recommend at least three individuals to the President, and the President may request that the commission recommend additional individuals. The President then selects an individual from those recommended to nominate as the new Comptroller General. The President’s nomination must be confirmed by the Senate. Comptrollers general are appointed for one nonrenewable 15-year term. The commission process has thus been followed three times now, leading to the President’s nomination, and the Senate’s confirmation, of the sixth Comptroller General, Charles A. Bowsher in 1981; the seventh Comptroller General, David M. Walker, in 1998; and the eighth Comptroller General, Gene Dodaro, in 2010.)

(FROM GAO’S WEBSITE AT https://www.gao.gov/about :GAO, often called the “congressional watchdog,” is an independent, non-partisan agency that works for Congress. GAO examines how taxpayer dollars are spent and provides Congress and federal agencies with objective, non-partisan, fact-based information to help the government save money and work more efficiently. For example, we identified about $67.5 billion in financial benefits for the federal government in fiscal year 2024—a return of approximately $76 for every dollar invested. GAO’s average return on investment for the past 6 years is $123 to $1. We also identified 1,232 other benefits that led to program and operational improvements across the government. To learn more, read our press release about our fiscal year 2024 performance. . .GAO provides Congress, the heads of executive agencies, and the public with timely, fact-based, non-partisan information that can be used to improve government and save taxpayers billions of dollars. Our work is done at the request of congressional committees or subcommittees or is statutorily required by public laws or committee reports, per our Congressional Protocols. . .GAO employees make a difference every day by providing Congress and federal agencies with objective, nonpartisan, fact-based information to help the government save money and work more efficiently on a wide range of issues and topics.

NEW YORK TIMES
— Congress Approves Full Social Security Benefits for Public Sector Retirees. The popular measure gives full benefits to millions of people who currently receive them at a reduced level. Critics warn the $196 billion cost will speed up the program’s insolvency. (COMMENT: My Social Security is dramatically reduced because I get a Civil Service Retirement System pension. I paid into Social Security for 10 years while I washed dishes, cleaned golf shoes, chipped slag, pumped gasoline, delivered mail, worked on an automobile assembly line, and sold tires, automotive services, and major appliances.)
https://www.nytimes.com/2024/12/21/us/congress-social-security.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The bill eliminates two provisions set up decades ago to shore up Social Security’s solvency. Projections show the Social Security fund will run out of money in 2038 and, if no action is taken before then, beneficiaries would see a 27 percent cut in benefits. Passage of the measure speeds up that timeline by six months. Twenty-seven Republicans joined Democrats in support. The two provisions were designed to prevent what is known as “double dipping” on retirement benefits by certain public employees and their relatives. It primarily affects two groups. One is public employees who receive pensions that are exempt from Social Security payroll taxes, but who also worked at least 10 years in jobs that required them to pay into the system. Such workers appear in the Social Security system as though they earned far less over their lifetimes than they actually did, and since the program pays out a higher proportion of low earners’ incomes in benefits, they receive a larger retirement benefit than they otherwise would. Another is people who receive public pensions but also become eligible for Social Security survivor benefits upon the death of a spouse or family member. Under the current law, both groups face a reduction in their benefits. The legislation on its way to enactment would allow them to receive the full amount. “We have spent decades working to pass this legislation, and tonight is a victory for all the public servants who will finally get the Social Security they have earned,” said Senator Sherrod Brown, an Ohio Democrat who was a lead co-sponsor of the bill. The bill marked Mr. Brown’s final legislative achievement, after he lost a brutal and expensive re-election bid last month. “Tonight, Congress ensured that police officers, firefighters, teachers and public servants across Ohio will be able to retire with the Social Security they spent their lives paying into,” he said. Senator Susan Collins, Republican of Maine and a lead sponsor of the measure, framed the issue as a “long overdue” matter of fairness affecting teachers, firefighters and police officers as well as some federal employees who were hired before 1984, when the federal pension system was brought under the Social Security system. In a floor speech Wednesday, Ms. Collins cited one of her constituents, a retired female schoolteacher who had to return to work at age 72 after her husband’s death to make financial ends meet. The woman’s husband was a Navy veteran who paid into Social Security for 40 years, but since she received a public pension from the school system, her surviving spousal benefits through Social Security were reduced by two-thirds. “This is an unfair, inequitable penalty,” Ms. Collins said. Public sector workers who are currently being penalized, she said, “have earned these benefits.” Public sector retirees and their allies on Capitol Hill in both parties have pressed for the measure for decades. It has sailed through Congress over the last several weeks, bypassing the usual committee process after proponents in the House collected 218 signatures on a so-called “discharge petition” to force it to the floor. Senate leaders also skipped committee consideration. But it faced vocal pushback in the Senate from fiscal conservatives. Several senators, mostly Republicans, warned that the bill could set off a chain reaction of unintended consequences by eliminating the two provisions. “We all agree the status quo is unfair, and it penalizes millions of hardworking Americans,” said Senator Joe Manchin of West Virginia, an independent who railed against the federal debt. “But we also have an obligation to honor our promises to ensure that Social Security is going to be there for the people who have paid into it and have earned it, and also those generations who come after.” Senator Thom Tillis, Republican of North Carolina, argued that a bill affecting the financial integrity of Social Security was too important to rush through at the end of the year without debate. The nearly $200-billion setback for the trust fund, he argued, would only make it more difficult to fix the longer-term issue of Social Security’s solvency. “There’s so much riding on us getting this right and having the courage to fix Social Security over the next few years,” he said. Other Republicans said the legislation righted a wrong that should have been addressed a long time ago. “I’m just glad we’re finally getting it done,” said Senator Markwayne Mullin, Republican of Oklahoma and a close ally of Mr. Trump’s. “It should have been resolved years ago.” Senator John Kennedy, Republican of Louisiana, said he had pushed the issue for 30 years in Congress and has repeatedly heard lawmakers promise, “We’ll fix it next year.” “They never have,” Mr. Kennedy said in an interview Wednesday. “People are entitled to receive every penny that they earn, and the way the law works now, they’re not.”)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: ‘Delete’ the IRS As Trump supporters have pushed for a broad overhaul of the Internal Revenue Service — or to eliminate the tax collector entirely — Musk polled his followers on X about the future of the agency, asking whether the IRS’s budget should be increased, maintained, decreased or “deleted.” Among more than 200,000 respondents, “deleted” won handily, though the poll didn’t exactly use rigorous methodology. Eliminating the IRS would be a radical move. IRS tax collections are the primary source of federal funding. In fiscal 2023, when spending approached $6.2 trillion, the IRS collected nearly $4.7 trillion in gross taxes. So without the IRS, Washington would need a different source of cash. Like a lot of ideas Musk muses about, this change would need approval by Congress. . .shrink the federal payroll Musk and Ramaswamy have repeatedly emphasized their desire to bring federal workers back to the office full-time. Musk has long been an opponent of remote work, telling employees of his companies to report to the office or resign well before pandemic telework habits ended at many firms. “Those who farm or build or drive can’t work from home and will be very sympathetic to this requirement,” Musk posted recently. Musk and Ramaswamy have also pledged “mass headcount reductions” in the federal workforce, saying they would work to “identify the minimum number of employees” needed to carry out essential functions. The goal isn’t to save money, Ramaswamy recently told the Aspen Security Forum. It’s to align the size of government with its functions — which Musk and Ramaswamy hope to greatly reduce.)

WASHINGTON TIMES
— Left wing sees a silver lining in accused assassin’s actions (COMMENT: I should write about my critics/opponents who despise/hate me the most because the federal government pays 72% of my and my wife’s health insurance premiums. In my defense, I worked for the Democrats who run the federal government for almost 30 years to get that benefit.)
https://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2024/dec/11/left-wing-sees-silver-lining-accused-assassin-luig/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Images of the man accused of killing the CEO of the nation’s largest health insurance company are splashed across T-shirts, coffee cups and other merchandise being hawked online and on the streets of New York City. Meanwhile, a group born out of Sen. Bernard Sanders’ 2016 presidential campaign is walking a tightrope of sympathy after the high-profile execution in Manhattan, suggesting, in this instance, that vigilante justice has a silver lining. . .“Half a million families go bankrupt each year from medical debt, and millions are harmed because their care is delayed or denied,” said the email, which included the subject headline “What Luigi Mangione means for Our Revolution.” The group has been a chief advocate for Medicare for All, taxing the wealthy and kneecapping corporations it accuses of putting “profits over people.”)

NEW YORK POST
— US immigration surge under Biden administration is biggest in US history — outpacing the days of Ellis Island (COMMENT: My critics/opponents have always decried the German immigration surge during the 1840s and 1850s. All my ancestors immigrated to America during the 1840s and 1850s. My critics/opponents have always a) stressed that I am 100% German national origin and b) have foisted negative German stereotypes on me. SEE: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stereotypes_of_Germans In my defense, I have always stressed that my grandfather on my father’s side fought the Germans in WWI, that my uncles on my mother’s side fought the Germans during WWII, and that my father would have fought the Germans in WWII if he had not been 4-F.)
https://nypost.com/2024/12/11/us-news/us-immigration-surge-under-biden-administration-is-biggest-in-us-history/
(FROM WIKIPEDIA: For Germany perpetrating the Holocaust and starting World War II, Germans are often stereotyped as Nazis. This stereotype, while now rare, persists to this day. After the war, the German people were often viewed with contempt because they were blamed by other Europeans for Nazi crimes. Germans visiting abroad, particularly in the 1950s and 1960s, attracted insults from locals, and from foreigners who may have lost their families or friends in the atrocities. Today in Europe and worldwide (particularly in countries that fought against the Axis), Germans may be scorned by elderly people who were alive to experience the atrocities committed by Nazi Germans or by veterans who had fought against the Nazis during World War II. This resulted in a feeling of controversy for many Germans, causing numerous discussions and rows among scholars and politicians in Post-War West Germany (for example, the “Historikerstreit” [historians’ argument] in the 1980s) and after Reunification. Here, the discussion was mainly about the role that the unified Germany should play in the world and in Europe. Bernhard Schlink’s novel The Reader concerns how post-war Germans dealt with the issue.)

NEWS BUSTERS
— George Orwell had it right. We’ve somehow allowed a mob of degenerates guilt trip an entire society into a dystopia that rejects all morals in the name of morality. War is peace, ignorance is strength… Men are Women. “Affirming” the mentally ill is “life saving healthcare,” and with that, refusing to pay for someone’s “essential health care” is akin to murder. A cowardly thug murdering an innocent father in cold blood is therefore justified resistance. That’s who our leftist politicians, mainstream media and pop culture have celebrated for the past week. A wannabe vigilante jumping out of the dark to shoot a self-made CEO from an Iowa farm town was somehow presented as a win for the common man against the corporate empire. Except their Marxist hero, the identified suspect, turns out to be the product of privilege and money, cut from the same cloth as the Ivy League “revolutionaries” cheering him on.

— 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 2003, all five of the announced Republican U.S. Senate candidates (John Cox, Chirinjeev Kathuria, Andrew McKenna, Jim Oberweis, and Jack Ryan) attended a picnic that I organized in the Prairie Path Park in my precinct. More than 200 attended. Back then, I was the GOPUSA Illinois Editor, the Milton Township Republican Organization (MTRO) webmaster, and an officer of TAPROOT Republicans of Illinois, Illinois Center Right Coalition, and American Association of Political Consultants Midwest Chapter. I organized a major MTRO straw poll later in 2003 that Ryan won. The Illinois GOP Establishment wanted McKenna to win the primary and blamed me for Ryan winning it instead. Previously, the Illinois GOP Establishment blamed me for Jim Ryan’s loss to Blagojevich. Also, later in 2003, and in 2004, I organized Wheaton’s 9/11 ceremonies. I should write about the Illinois GOP Establishment. )

(FROM THE ARTICLE: Americans demanded change last week. Whether they were voting for Trump or against Harris, their rationale didn’t matter. Less government interference won. So did free speech, border control, law and order, and anti-DEI policies. The change that shook the nation was visible even in Illinois, perhaps one of the country’s most hostile media and political environments for Trump. Not only did Trump shrink the Dem margin of victory this year to nine percentage points – from 17 points in 2020 and 25 points in 2008 – he also performed better in both Chicago and the suburbs. Illinoisans’ support for Trump grew even as the media and political attacks on him, led notably by Gov. J.B. Pritzker, increased in intensity. So with 45% of Illinois going for Trump – and Latinos and blacks and virtually every demographic breaking towards him – you would have thought Gov. Pritzker would be chastened, or at least sufficiently introspective enough to temper his comments until the dust settles.)

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.”)

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.)
