— 100 years of newspapering: Medill School was started to bring booksmarts to street-smart journalism – RON GROSSMAN (DIERSEN: According to my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes, I am not a reporter or journalist a) because reporters and journalists cannot be conservative or Republican, b) because I am not paid for what I do, c) because I do not have a degree in journalism, d) because I refuse to serve as one of their operatives or dupes, e) because I do not glorify and praise them, f) because I do not pander to them, and g) because I do not give them money. I have been the GOPUSA Illinois Editor for 21 years. Before that, I worked for GAO as an Analyst for almost 18 years, the last 11 years of which at the GS-13 Step 1-10 Levels, currently $102,755-$132,845/year. GAO Analysts do much of what reporters and journalists do including interviewing, gathering facts, summarizing facts, analyzing facts, and writing reports. I should write a book about my critics/opponents who claim to be Republican but who give all their scopes to Democrat reporters and to Democrat journalists.)

— Canada Labels Proud Boys A Terrorist Group. What Are The Consequences? (DIERSEN: How soon will Democrats succeed in getting the United States, Illinois, your county, your township, and your municipality to label the Republican Party a terrorist group? How soon will banks and other financial institutions seize assets of Republicans? How soon will the United States, Illinois, your county, your township, and your municipality officially prohibit Republicans a) from seeking or holding any kind of government or political office, b) from getting an education, c) from getting or keeping a job, d) from owning firearms or ammunition, e) from leasing or owning vehicles, f) from renting or owning real estate, g) etc.?)
https://www.nprillinois.org/post/canada-labels-proud-boys-terrorist-group-what-are-consequences#stream/0
(FROM THE ARTICLE: With this designation, it gives banks and financial institutions the grounds to, you know, seize assets, you know, not renew mortgages. It’s a very effective way at stopping support for a group at a ground level. And I should also say that I think one of the things it did was by designating the Proud Boys a terror group – whether you would agree with that or not, it does allow a certain amount of deterrence to happen, that, you know, some regular person who wants to don the yellow-and-black Fred Perry golf shirt might be less inclined to because that could, you know, have them wind up on a list where their bank no longer wants to bank with them.)

CAPITOL FAX
— UPDATE 4 *** Some members of the Eastern Bloc…State Representatives Blaine Wilhour (R-Beecher City), Brad Halbrook (R-Shelbyville), Dan Caulkins (R-Decatur), Chris Miller (R-Oakland) and Adam Niemerg R-Dieterich) are issuing the following statement on the election of Don Tracy as Illinois Republican Chairman. “Despite some news reports, Don Tracy is Chairman of the Illinois Republican Party because several of the most conservative legislators in the state who represent the areas with the most weighted vote were involved and backed him. We talked directly with Tracy and supported him based on his commitment to continuing to engage working families and support the values of working people. This isn’t a Trump or anti-Trump deal. It’s about putting the Republican Party in the best position to win by speaking to the middle class and working class families in Illinois who have disproportionately shouldered the burden of poor policies from our state’s one-party rule for far too long. We have been and will continue to be engaged in this process, and we look forward to working with Chairman Tracy. Make no mistake about it- the election of Don Tracy as State Party Chairman is a big win for conservatives.

TOWNHALL
— AS THE DEMOCRAT PARTY’S STRANGLEHOLD ON AMERICA, ON ILLINOIS, ON COOK COUNTY, AND ON CHICAGO TIGHTENS: Democrats: The Party of Systemic Racism – Kevin Grieve
https://townhall.com/columnists/kevingrieve/2021/02/07/democrats-the-party-of-systemic-racism-n2584289
(FROM THE ARTICLE: There is structural and systemic racism in the United States. The inconvenient truth is that it is perpetrated, propagated, and perpetuated by the Left. Birthed in the cesspool of radical Left university departments, demagogic terms like white privilege, whiteness, or white fragility are part of a poisonous and dangerous ideology that is meant to divide rather than unite. Critical race theory and racial equality can be summed up in a single statement: if you are white, you are racist and if you are a person of color, you are oppressed. The combination of white guilt plus black victimhood is especially toxic. Our self-anointed “Uniter-in-Chief” Joe Biden has jumped on the race hustler bandwagon under the guise of diversity training with his recent decision to rescind an executive order from former President Trump that would have put restrictions on advancing racial equality by limiting diversity training for federal government employees and its contractors. In other words, more identity politics. Unfortunately, this isn’t an anomaly for Democrats. This isn’t a blip on the Democratic arc of history bending towards justice. Judging people by the color of their skin rather than the content of their character has a rich history in the Democratic Party. Democrats have been solely responsible for defending slavery, starting the Civil War, opposing reconstruction, lynching blacks, founding the Ku Klux Klan, Jim Crow laws and segregation, poll taxes and literacy tests. The Party voted against the 13th amendment (end slavery), 14th amendment (black citizenship), and 15th amendment (black right to vote), filibustered the 1960 Civil Rights Act (elimination of poll taxes), and tried to filibuster the 1964 Civil Rights Act for 60 days, the longest filibuster in Senate history. The Civil War wasn’t North v. South, as highlighted in the Lincoln-Douglas debates in the northern state of Illinois. It was a Democrat v. Republican battle. The infamous Dred Scott decision (blacks were property) in 1857 was a Supreme Court vote of 7 Democrat justices for, and 2 Republican justices against. By 1900, more than 20 black Republicans had served in Congress. Democrats did not elect a single black congressman until 1935. And every black senator until 1979 was a Republican. When federal troops withdrew from the South after reconstruction ended, Democrats’ white supremacy laws re-emerged with a vengeance enforced by the paramilitary arm of the Democratic Party, the KKK, which was used to suppress blacks from voting Republican. . .If Democrats really wanted to help blacks, they would treat abortion as a tragedy, support school choice, work to end the failed welfare state, drop the idea of defunding police, promote advancement based on merit and character not the amount of melanin in your skin, end open borders which flood the market with cheap labor and steal jobs from black Americans, end their support of minimum wage laws which lead to higher black unemployment, and end their social justice mantra which is equality by group not the individual, anathema to America’s founding principles. I know, wishful thinking. So, whenever you hear Democrats calling Republicans racists, just know there is a simple psychological term for this: projection.)

— Strong Trump Supporters Picked to Head Michigan Republican Party. The state’s selection of party chair and vice chair hinged in large part on who was most loyal to the former president. – Kathleen Gray
https://www.nytimes.com/2021/02/06/us/politics/michigan-elections-board.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Ron Weiser, a wealthy real estate developer from Ann Arbor, was elected chair of the Michigan Republican Party on Saturday, bringing along a vice chair who has caused consternation among some factions of the party because of her fierce support of former President Donald J. Trump. The vote from more than 2,000 party delegates did little to heal the deep divide in the party that surfaced this week when Laura Cox, the chair of the party for the last two years, jumped back into the race at the last minute, saying that Mr. Weiser had used $200,000 in party funds as a payoff to get a candidate out of the race for secretary of state in 2018.)
