— Supreme Court denies appeal by Wisconsin conservative think tank over press access – JOHN KRUZEL (COMMENT: According to my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes, Capitol Fax is a bona fide news organization, but GOPUSA ILLINOIS is not. They stress that Capitol Fax claims to be non-partisan, but GOUSA ILLINOIS does not. They stress that leaders in Illinois who state that they are religious, conservative, and/or Republican treat Capitol Fax as being a bona filed news organization, but that they do not treat GOPUSA ILLINOIS as being a bona fide news organization. I should write a book about the aforesaid leaders. I would focus on those who a) demand blind loyalty to them and to them only and b) destroy those like me who they cannot manipulate/dominate, who refuse to glorify and praise them, who refuse to pander to them, who refuse to serve as one of their operatives or dupes, who refuse to cover up their wrongdoing, and/or who refuse to give them money. As the GOPUSA Illinois Editor since 2000, I have sent out GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters. Since 2004, those newsletters have gone out each and every morning, and since 2015, they have gone out each and every evening too.  Since 2004, they have included links to more than 416,300 articles and information on many upcoming events.)
https://thehill.com/regulation/court-battles/585593-supreme-court-denies-appeal-by-wisconsin-conservative-think-tank
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The case arose in 2019 after Evers did not invite members of the MacIver Institute to a background briefing on budgetary matters that was attended by some two dozen members of the press who cover the governor. The MacIver Institute filed a federal lawsuit alleging the group had been denied press access due to their conservative viewpoint, in violation of the First Amendment. Evers countered that the law permits reasonable restrictions on access to official events, and that his office’s denial of press credentials to the think tank was not done because of the group’s viewpoint. In March 2020, a federal judge in Wisconsin sided with Evers, finding that the governor had “reasonably concluded that MacIver is not a bona fide news organization.”)

— Journalist: A journalist is an individual trained to collect/gather information in form of text, audio or pictures, processes them to a news-worthy form and disseminates it to the public. The act or process mainly done by the journalist is called journalism. (COMMENT: According to my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes, Rich Miller is a journalist, but I am not. They stress that Miller claims to be non-partisan, but that I do not. They stress that leaders in Illinois who state that they are religious, conservative, and/or Republican treat Miller as being a journalist, but that they do not treat me as being a journalist. I should write a book about the aforesaid leaders. I would focus on those who a) demand blind loyalty to them and to them only and b) destroy those like me who they cannot manipulate/dominate, who refuse to glorify and praise them, who refuse to pander to them, who refuse to serve as one of their operatives or dupes, who refuse to cover up their wrongdoing, and/or who refuse to give them money. In my defense, I worked for GAO for almost 18 years as an Analyst, the last 11 years of which at the GS-13 Step 1-10 Levels, currently $102,188-$132,645/year. What GAO Analysts do is very similar to what journalists do. As the GOPUSA Illinois Editor since 2000, I have sent out GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters. Since 2004, those newsletters have gone out each and every morning, and since 2015, they have gone out each and every evening too.  Since 2004, they have included links to more than 416,300 articles and information on many upcoming events.)

https://www.theblaze.com/news/blm-leader-fox-news-interview
(FROM THE ARTICLE: A Black Lives Matter leader suggested that a Fox News host enjoys “white privilege,” so her opinion on New York City Mayor-elect Eric Adams’ remedies for spiking violent crime in the city is irrelevant. . .Newsome then attempted to dismiss MacCallum’s point of view because of her alleged “white privilege.” “But see, you don’t know what it’s like, you don’t know what it’s like to be pulled over and thrown up against walls,” Newsome said, then telling MacCallum, “You live from a place of white privilege.”)

HISTORY NEWS NETWORK
— SEVEN EX-PRESIDENTS HAVE TRIED TO RECLAIM THE OFFICE. WILL THERE BE AN EIGHTH? – Ronald L. Feinman
https://historynewsnetwork.org/blog/154567
(FROM THE ARTICLE: If he ends up running, Trump would be the 8th former president to attempt to return to the office. Only one, Grover Cleveland, was successful. Three others—Martin Van Buren, Millard Fillmore, and Theodore Roosevelt—-ran as third party candidates. Three others—Ulysses S. Grant, Herbert Hoover, and Gerald Ford— attempted to run after leaving the Presidency, but failed to accomplish that goal. . .Grover Cleveland (1885-1889) (1893-1897) is the only president to win, then lose, and then regain the presidency. In an era of Republican dominance, the conservative Cleveland was the only Democratic president between James Buchanan before the Civil War and Woodrow Wilson in 1913. He is best remembered for supporting the Interstate Commerce Act (1887), supporting a lower protective tariff that only came about in his second term, demonstrating white supremacist views toward African Americans, native Americans, and Asian Americans, intervening in the suppression of the Pullman Strike of 1894 in his second term, and opposing the western free silver crusade headed by William Jennings Bryan in 1896. Cleveland also appointed four Supreme Court Justices in his two terms, and utilized the veto power more times than any president, except for Franklin D. Roosevelt. Cleveland was also an anti imperialist, refusing to annex Hawaii when Benjamin Harrison tried to arrange a treaty as he left office in 1893, refusing to intervene directly in the Cuban war against their Spanish masters in 1895, and opposing the Spanish American War and American intervention in the Filipino Insurrection under his successor, William McKinley.)

NEW YORK TIMES
— JUNE 9, 2017 FLASHBACK: Stop and Acknowledge How Much Luck Has to Do With Your Success – Carl Richards (COMMENT: What do you assert was bad luck and not your fault? All during the almost 30 years that I worked for the federal government, my superiors were under tremendous pressure from Democrat politicians to get rid of their employees who were Republican, and especially those who were White, male, older, and/or non-veteran. In 1997, when I was 49 years old, my Democrat GAO superiors succeeded in forcing me to take their early retirement “offer.” In 1987, my Democrat GAO superiors succeeded in forcing my GAO mentor to retire; he had hired me in 1980, got me assigned to audits of IRS in 1986, and promoted me to GS-13, currently $102,188/year in 1986. In 1981, Charles Bowsher took over GAO and ran it for the next 15 years. Under Bowsher, GAO shrank dramatically and is now just a shell of what it once was. I suffered a 21% ($20,361/year) pay cut in today’s dollars to transfer from IRS to GAO in 1980. In 1975, my Democrat IRS superiors succeeded in forcing my IRS mentor to transfer to Texas; he had promoted me to GS-9 in 1972, to GS-11 in 1973, and to GS-12, currently $85,935/year, in 1974. Republican losses in Illinois, DuPage County, Milton Township, and Wheaton increased dramatically since I a) became a Republican Precinct Committeeman in 1999, b) served as the Milton Township Republican Organization webmaster 2000-2004 and 2008-2010, c) served as an Illinois Center Right Coalition Steering member 2003-2007, d) served as a Wheaton Chamber of Commerce Government Affairs Committee member 2003-2011, e) served as the TAPROOT Republicans of Illinois chairman 2005-2012, and f) raised funds from DuPage Republicans 2005-2019 so that DuPage Republicans could help sponsor Wheaton’s Independence Day parades and fireworks. Ever-increasingly those who move into my precinct are Democrats. My wife and I have fertility problems serious enough to stop us from having children.)

— How to keep stress during college from sabotaging your future – Victoria Bell (COMMENT: What caused you the most stress while you were earning your bachelor’s degree? For me, it was fearing that I would not be able to get a good job when I graduated. Potential employers saw me as being draft bait. They did not believe that my application for a financial hardship draft deferment would be approved. Further, they were under big pressure to hire minorities, females, and veterans. Consequently, I accepted the only job offer that I got. But that job did not really require a bachelor’s degree, it did not provide me with valuable work experience, advancement opportunities were limited, and my boss, who did not hire me, disapproved of my avoiding the draft, having a college degree, being a Republican, being Protestant, and being German American.)

They did not believe that my application for a financial hardship draft deferment would be approved. Consequently, I accepted the only job offer that I got. But that job did not really require a bachelor’s degree, it did not provide me with valuable work experience, advancement opportunities were limited, and my boss, who did not hire me, disapproved of my avoiding the draft, having a college degree, being a Republican, being Protestant, and being German American. When I accepted a job offer and gave my boss my 2-week notice, he abruptly and rudely fired me. He would not have done that if I had been a veteran, Democrat, Catholic, or Irish American.)

— Too many DEI plans are ineffective. Here are 3 ways companies can ensure progress. After so much change, firms must do more than make empty promises. – MICHAEL V. NGUYEN (COMMENT: What would your superiors say that they did to promote DEI? If they were honest, my Democrat GAO superiors would stress that they forced me to retire in 1997 when I was 49 years old, gave me bad job assignments, unfair performance expectations, and unfair appraisals, always ranked me in the bottom half of my coworkers for pay-for-performance purposes, did not promote me beyond GS-13, got rid of my mentor in 1987, kept me off audits of IRS for all but 3 of the almost 18 years that I worked for GAO, and forced me to take a $20,361 (21%) pay cut in today’s dollars to transfer from IRS to GAO in 1980. My Democrat IRS superiors would stress that they did not promote me beyond GS-12, disallowed my education deductions in 1978, got rid of my mentor in 1975, and disallowed my partial day per diem claims in 1974. My Democrat Post Office superiors would stress that they forced me to resign in 1969 and disallowed my sick leave requests in 1969 and 1968.)

I would focus on those who blame me for their losses. I would focus on those who blame my GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters for their losses. I would focus on those who blame what I have done as a Republican Precinct Committeeman for their losses. I would focus on those who blamed what I did raising money from DuPage Republicans so that they could help sponsor Wheaton’s Independence Day parades and fireworks 2005-2019 and as a TAPROOT Republicans of Illinois chairman 2005-2012, Wheaton Chamber of Commerce Government Affairs Committee member 2003-2011, Milton Township Republican Organization webmaster 2008-2010 and 2000-2004, Illinois Center Right Coalition Steering Committee member 2003-2007, and American Association of Political Consultants Midwest Chapter board member 2001-2004 for their losses. I would focus on those who destroy those like me who they cannot manipulate or dominate, who refuse to glorify and praise them, who refuse to pander to them, who refuse to serve as one of their operatives or dupes, who refuse to cover up their wrongdoing, and/or who refuse to give them money. I would focus on their political consultants, their major donors, their pollsters, their campaign managers, their campaign staff members, and their campaign volunteers.)

GLOBE AND MAIL
— APRIL 1, 2021 FLASHBACK: Slowly but surely the government is gathering the media into its ghastly embrace – ANDREW COYNE (COMMENT: I am an independent political/government reporter/journalist/editor. All the time and money needed to put together GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters and to send them out comes from me. My critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes could hint/imply/argue/shout that because I am a Republican Precinct Committeeman, the leaders of the Milton Township Republican Organization (MTRO), DuPage County Republican Central Committee, and Illinois Republican Party manipulate/dominate me. But the facts show otherwise. I am elected, not appointed. Every 2 years, I continue to run for Republican Precinct Committeeman notwithstanding the many adverse actions that the aforesaid, their operatives, and their dupes have taken against me. Of course, those adverse actions have harmed my ability to get out the vote for Republican candidates on ballots in my precinct. Ever-increasingly, MTRO leaders make it clear a) that they would never appoint me as a Republican Precinct Committeeman and that they blame me for all the problems that they and MTRO have had, are having, and will have.)

— Acknowledging my forefather’s harmful bigotry – JUDITH RACE (COMMENT: Soon, if not already, Democrats, Libertarians, Greens, Independents, and RINOs will demand that White male Republicans disclose everything that their forefathers did. Neither of my outstanding parents attended college. My father was the first of his ancestors to earn a high school diploma. My mother never attended high school. My father fought brittle type 1 diabetes from age 14, worked in the office of a nasty chemical plant in Chicago Heights, almost always worked second jobs to pay the family’s bills, did not buy a new car until he was 45 in 1967 and it was a bottom of the line 2-door Chevy, and died suddenly of heart failure in 1969 he was 47 and I was 21 years old. My father’s parents and his grandparents operated a hardware store in Crete. My mother’s parents and her grandparents operated a farm in Grant Park along the Indiana border.)
