https://www.conservativewoman.co.uk/how-to-defeat-the-activist-media/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: A workable solution, therefore, to the problem of the activist media must necessarily be one in which postmodern theory is jettisoned in favour of a new approach. One which abandons the neo-Marxist oppressor/oppressed paradigm, and the ‘us v them’ mentality it fosters. One which rejects the denial of objective truths to which we can all hold. Truth, beauty, reason all exist, and we must not be afraid to say so.)

Some are seeing it immediately as ushering in a state government guided by the Critical Race Theory so many are opposing in school curriculum.)

(DIERSEN: You can tell if a) those who lead your Republican township/ward party organization, b) those who lead your Republican county party organization, and c) your representative on the Illinois Republican Party (IRP) State Central Committee (SCC) are pro-Trump or anti Trump by the way they treat their Republican Precinct Committeemen/Captains. From what I see, ever-increasingly, Milton Township Republican Organization leaders, DuPage County Republican Central Committee leaders, and the 6th Congressional District IRP SCC representative are anti-Trump. As anti-Trumpism builds, they will do more and more and more to get rid of Republican Precinct Committeemen who do not hate Trump.)
https://illinoisnewstoday.com/ap-norc-poll-many-republicans-are-worried-about-the-partys-future-wgn-radio-720/317398/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Republicans also have a lot of concerns about their party. Less than half, 41% of Republicans, say they are optimistic about the future of the GOP. Only 13% say they are “very” optimistic. And one-third, 33% say they are pessimistic . . .Polls show that Trump remains the commander of the party. Most former presidents tend to give up the spotlight after resigning, but Trump continues to insist on his power, holds rallies, supports and teases the 2024 comeback run. While 60% of the population has a negative view of Trump, 76% of Republicans have a positive view of him. And most want him to maintain at least some influence over the Republican Party in the future. Almost half of Republicans, 47%, say Trump should exert “more” influence on the party’s future, and another 34% say he should have “slight” influence. It states. Only 18% say Trump should have nothing. . .For the 2020 elections, 62% of Republicans say it is “very” or “very” important to continue investigating the elections. He was dismissed by a number of judges, including some of the state election authorities and his own attorney-at-law president. In contrast, only 38% are “very” or “very” important to continue investigating the January 6 incident, in which a group of Trump supporters slammed the Capitol in an attempt to stop the change of power. It states that. Only 10% of Republicans, like Democrats, say that democracy is working “very” or “very” well in this country today. But Republicans are more negative than Democrats. 63% of Republicans say democracy isn’t working well. Only 17% say they think the country is heading in the right direction.)

That income also enabled me to buy a new 1972 Corvette in 1971 and to pay for tuition and books for graduate business courses at Loyola for the previous 9 months.)

For the rest of my GAO career, my Democrat GAO superiors, supervisors, coworkers, and subordinates viciously used that against me big time. They hinted/implied/argued/shouted that the pay cut and downgrade showed that GAO considered the following to be worthless a) my having 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, b) my having passed the CPA examination on my first attempt in 1979, c) my having earned an MBA from Loyola in 1976, and d) my almost having completed the requirements for a master’s degree in accounting from DePaul.)

I look forward to talking about that and his radical policy agenda out of step with Illinoisans in the upcoming election,” Tracy said in a statement. Paul Schimpf, Republican candidate for Illinois governor, also issued a statement on Pritzker’s reelection Monday, calling his time in office the “Pritzker Leadership Deficit.” “In three years, JB Pritzker has demonstrated he has neither the vision nor the leadership skills to unite our state. Simply put, Illinoisans deserve better–they deserve a leader with commonsense who will renew our state,” Schimpf said.)

ILLINOIS FAMILY INSTITUTE
— The Toxic Spread of Oppression-Obsessed Ideologies in Education – Laurie Higgins
(DIERSEN: According to Democrats, Libertarians, Greens, Independents, and RINOs, Republicans are oppressors, and especially Republicans who are law enforcement officers, Trump supporters, conservative, patriotic, White, male, older, heterosexual, married, non-veteran, non-poor, gun owners, Christian, Protestant, Italian American, German American, and/or those whose ancestors have been in America for a long time. What gives someone power to oppress others? From what see, the main things include a) the power to hire, retain, promote, and terminate employees and b) the power to admit, grade, and graduate students.)

— Donations for racial equity have surged. But by how much? – HALELUYA HADERO
(DIERSEN: To promote racial and gender equity is to take opportunities and money away from Whites and from men and to give those opportunities and that money to minorities and to females. In 1971, when I was 22 years old, Oldsmobile withdrew a job offer that I had accepted saying that Oldsmobile had just agreed to stop hiring Whites to settle an EEOC complaint. In 1997, when I was 49 years old, my Democrat GAO superiors forced me to take their early retirement “offer” so that they could give my job and my preferred corner office to my Black subordinate, which they did. While I worked for IRS 1971-1980 and for GAO 1980-1997, my Democrat superiors promoted many females over me who had less education, work experience, and/or professional certifications and licenses than I had.)
