— Factions in the Republican Party (COMMENT: Far too few conservative organizations in Illinois focus on defending and advancing the individual responsibility, traditional marriage and family, right to life, immigration, illegal drugs, Second Amendment, and/or equal opportunity (no race or gender based preference giving) planks in the Republican Party platform. Based on the destruction of TAPROOT Republicans of Illinois and the destruction of Illinois Center Right Coalition (ICRC), if I would form a conservative organization, the same “conservative” and “religious” leaders who destroyed TAPROOT and ICRC would destroy it. I should write a book about those “conservative” and “religious” leaders. I would focus on those leaders who focus on stopping me from sending out my GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters and on stopping everyone from reading those newsletters. I would focus on those leaders who reject many, most, if not virtually all of the aforesaid planks. I would focus on those leaders who have taken the most/biggest adverse actions against me and who continue to take adverse actions against me. I would focus on those leaders who destroy those like me a) who they cannot manipulate or dominate, b) who refuse to glorify and praise them, c) who refuse to pander to them, d) who refuse to serve as one of their operatives or dupes, e) who refuse to cover up their wrong doing, and/or f) who refuse to give them money. I would focus on those leaders who focus on destroying those like me who do not share their hatred against Trump. Trump and I share many demographics. Both of us are heterosexual, conservative, Republican, White, male, older, married, non-poor, non-drinkers, draft avoiders, gun-owners, Protestant, German American, and our ancestors have been in America for a long time. I would focus on those hate-filled Trump-hating leaders who share the fewest of the aforesaid demographics with me. I would focus on those leaders who use against me my not being the member of a church, my not attending church services, my not giving money to any church, my wife and I giving up trying to have children, our not adopting, and our not becoming foster parents.)

My Democrat IRS superiors a) disallowed my travel vouchers in 1974, b) disallowed my education deductions in 1978, and c) did not promote me beyond GS-12.

I would focus on a) my Democrat superiors in the federal government, b) leaders of the Milton Township Republican Organization, DuPage County Republican Central Committee, and Illinois Republican Party, c) leaders of Wheaton, Wheaton Chamber of Commerce, Wheaton Park District, Milton Township, DuPage County, and Illinois, d) conservative leaders and activists, and e) religious leaders and activists.)
https://townhall.com/columnists/victordavishanson/2023/07/14/ten-reasons-why-affirmative-action-died-n2625719
https://www.dailysignal.com/2023/07/14/10-reasons-why-affirmative-action-died/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The end of affirmative action was inevitable. The only surprise was that such intentions went terribly wrong and lasted so long. First, supporters of racial preferences always pushed back the goalposts for the program’s success. Was institutionalized reverse bias to last 20 years, 60 years, or ad infinitum? Parity became defined as an absolute equality of results. If “equity” was not obtained, then only institutionalized “racism” explained disparities. And only reverse racism was deemed the cure. Second, affirmative action was imposed on the back end in adult hiring and college admissions. However, to achieve parity, remediation early at the K-12 school level would have been the only solution. Yet such intervention was made impossible by teachers’ unions, the rise of identity politics, and government entitlements. All opposed school choice, self-help programs, critiques of cultural impediments, or restrictions on those blanket entitlements. Third, class, the true barometer of privilege, was rendered meaningless. Surrealism followed. The truly privileged Barack and Michelle Obama and Meghan Markel lectured the country on its unfairness — as if they had it far rougher than the impoverished “deplorable” of East Palestine, Ohio. Fourth, affirmative action supporters could never square the circle of proving that racial prejudices didn’t violate the spirit of the Declaration of Independence and the text of the Constitution. What they were left with was the lame argument that because long ago, the 90% white majority had violated their own foundational documents, then such past bad unconstitutional bias could legitimately be rectified by present-day “good” unconstitutional bias. Fifth, supporters never adequately explained why the sins of prior generations fell on their descendants who grew up in the post-Civil Rights era. Nor could they account for why those who had never experienced institutionalized racism, much less Jim Crow apartheid or slavery, were to be compensated collectively for the suffering of long-dead individuals. No wonder 70% of the American people in many polls favored ending affirmative action, including half of African-Americans. Sixth, there never was a “rainbow” coalition of shared non-white victimhood — a concept necessary to perpetuate the premise of white privilege, supremacy, and rage, so integral to race-based reverse discrimination. More than a dozen ethnicities earn more per capita than whites. Asians have been subject to coerced internment, immigration restrictions, and zoning exclusions. Yet on average, they do better than whites economically and enjoy lower suicide rates and longer life expectancies. The arguments for affirmative action never explained why Asians and other minorities who faced discrimination outperformed the majority white population. As a result, affirmative action ended up discriminating against Asians on the premise they were too successful! Seventh, no one ever explained when affirmative action was to apply. Blacks, for example, were vastly “overrepresented” in merit-based professional football and basketball. Yet no one demanded “proportional representation” to address such “disparate impact” despite the underrepresentation of all other demographics. Yet if Blacks were “underrepresented” in baseball, then reparatory measures were supposed to address that fact — even if Latino players were “overrepresented” and whites “underrepresented” as well. No one in our race-obsessed culture, of course, objected that white males died at twice their demographics in combat in Afghanistan and Iraq. Eighth, in our increasingly intermarried mass-immigration society, few could adjudicate who was what, or much less what standard gave one racial preference. In lunatic fashion, pink, blond Massachusetts Senator Elizabeth Warren became Harvard’s first “Native American” law professor due to her “high cheekbones.” Light-skinned Latinos were considered marginalized, while some darker Italians or Greeks were not. Ninth, an odious wokeism absorbed affirmative action and changed it into something even more abhorrent — as the original spirit of the Civil Rights movement was trashed. So Americans were asked to stomach a return to distasteful segregated dorms, “separate but equal” graduation ceremonies, and racially exclusive workshops. Tenth, and finally, affirmative action was insidiously destroying meritocracy. That hallmark American value of tribally-blind inclusivity had once explained why the nation outshone the world by discarding the old class prejudices of Europe. But increasingly, this value seemed to have been abandoned. When Stockton Rush, the late captain, and inventor of the ill-fated Titan deep-sea explorer, was quoted postmortem bragging that his company had no need of “old white guys” with long military expertise in submarining, Americans realized that woke racial discrimination was not just repulsive, but could get you killed. A nation whose pilot training, medical-school admissions, and military high command promotions were increasingly adopting racial, gender, or sexual-orientation essentialism was a country headed for the sort of Third World tribalism characteristic of failed states abroad. Ultimately, the court finally stepped in to end this unconstitutional aberration, more like the old Soviet commissariat than our ideals of equality under the law. The American people concurred. And the only regret seemed to be, why not sooner?)

Neither of my outstanding parents attended college. My father was the first of my ancestors to earn a high school diploma. My mother never attended high school. My father worked in the office of a nasty chemical plant in Chicago Heights. He almost always worked second jobs to pay the family’s bills. My mother stayed home and raised my brother and me.)
https://www.dailywire.com/news/joe-biden-wants-to-oust-privilege-from-college-admissions-except-for-his-family
(FROM THE ARTICLE: But according to a report published Saturday by the Washington Free Beacon, President Biden was part of a concerted effort in 2018 to pressure the president of the prestigious University of Pennsylvania to accept his granddaughter, despite the school’s 5.9% admissions rate and her less-than-stellar grades. “I applied early decision to Penn today!!” Maisy Biden reportedly texted her father, Hunter Biden, on October 31 of 2018 — and then asked just days later if he could provide an “update” on the status of her application. “Going to try to see [University of Pennsylvania] Pres GUTMANN tomorrow,” Joe Biden texted Hunter on December 13, and two days later he followed up. “Had a great talk with Guttman [sic]. Maisy still in the game for regular acceptance. But must do well in class this period. It’s real. We should talk about tutors etc. starting tomorrow.” Hunter Biden relayed the news to Maisy, adding that she could potentially elevate her application if her lacrosse coach were to reach out to the coach at Penn and express her interest in playing there as well. “I also think it would help if you had lax coach talk to their lax coach. Bottom line is that Guttman [sic] made clear that in order for her to explain the 11th grade you had to show improvement in 12th,” Hunter texted on December 15th. “Which is something I think we would have all liked to know form [sic] the start, but in fairness we were much later in the app process than usual and made it look like we weren’t 100% about Penn.”)

BOSTON GLOBE
— FROM THE ARTICLE: MERRIMACK, N.H.: But candidates still need to show they are authentic and relatable and look sincere to voters.” Tuesday’s parade had that in spades. DeSantis and his wife, Casey, walked with one of their young daughters, who spent much of the 1½-mile route riding piggyback on Casey. Burgum toted a candy bucket along the route. Scott greeted parade marchers beforehand, joking with one long-bearded man that he couldn’t pull off that much hair, motioning to his bald head. “Want some?” the man asked. One of the biggest parade contingents was for a candidate who was not there: Trump. . .Other presidential hopefuls, meanwhile, walked through a drizzle that became a steady rainfall by the end of the route on Tuesday. DeSantis at several points said he was impressed by the turnout for the parade, noting to a supporter midway through the walk that “in Florida, people might have scattered” at that point. “We’re going to be doing so much more here,” he told reporters afterward.

I have been unemployed since September 30, 1997 a) when I was 49 years old, b) when my Democrat GAO superiors succeeded in forcing me to take their early retirement “offer,” and c) when GAO’s early retirement option ended. In today’s dollars, my GAO salary was $142,650/year. Reasons why my Democrat GAO superiors succeeded in forcing me to retire included a) they had the power to make the 6 more years that I needed to be eligible for regular retirement a living hell, b) they had made it extremely clear that they would use that power to do that, c) GAO was not unionized, d) I could not count on my U.S. Senator or my U.S. Congressman or anyone else to come to my defense because of my terrible demographics (conservative, Republican, White, male, old, draft-avoider, non-poor, Protestant, German American, and my ancestors had been in America since 1844), e) my wife had a good job, f) we had no dependents, g) we had no debts, h) we had retirement savings, i) we owned 915 Cove Court in Wheaton and six cars (1997 Chevrolet Cavalier, 1996 Ford Thunderbird LX, 1990 Ford Thunderbird LX, 1972 Corvette, 1968 Dodge Charger R/T, and 1962 Chevrolet Impala SS), j) my Civil Service Retirement System pension would be $63,144/year in today’s dollars, and k) the federal government would pay 72% of our health insurance premiums for the rest of our lives.

That income also enabled me to buy a new 1972 Corvette 11 months before and to pay for graduate business courses at Loyola for the previous 9 months. My father died suddenly in October of 1969. My mother never attended high school.

— Democrats say “Homeownership is not the answer to the gaping gap in wealth.” How long have your ancestors been homeowners? My ancestors on my father’s side homesteaded a farm in Crete Township in 1854. They sold that farm in 1864 and bought 10 acres just northeast of downtown Crete. They had a large brick home built on the west side of that 10 acres in 1897 and sold that home in the 1940s. In 1926, they sold all but a quarter acer of the rest of that 10 acres and had a brick home (1286 Wood Street) built on quarter acre. I lived in that home 1954-1972. My brother and I inherited that home when our mother died in 2016. I inherited that home last year when my brother died and I sold it for $99,900 last year. The home’s value declined in relative terms after my father died suddenly in 1969 and as Democrats moved into Crete. My mother inherited $4,000 when her parents died during the 1970s. My critics/opponents have always hinted/implied/argued/shouted that my parents and all of my ancestors were filthy rich and that explains all of the successes that I have had in life. I should write a book about my critics/opponents. I would focus on their parents’ wealth.)

Seven adults were arrested for reckless conduct, six for misdemeanor battery, two for criminal damage to property, and one was taken in on a warrant, according to the CPD spokesperson.

— Chicago Children’s hospital promotes sex ed material that you have to see to believe – Hudson Crozier (COMMENT: How successful have Democrats been in turning children into sexually active LGBTQers in your county, in your township, in your municipality, and in your school district?)
https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/opinion/childrens-hospital-promotes-sex-ed-material-that-you-have-to-see-to-believe
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Just when you thought the “progressive” dystopia of Chicago, Illinois, couldn’t get any worse with exceedingly high crime and expenses, local school districts are paying a children’s hospital thousands of taxpayer dollars to help teach children about gender confusion and “inclusive sexual health.” At least, that’s what the hospital calls it. Lurie Children’s Hospital, a top-ranked facility in the state, is providing “question-and-answer workshop[s],” seminars, and other services for LGBT-related lessons, according to records obtained by the Daily Caller. (Just to describe those lessons here requires a content warning, so don’t keep reading if you are easily offended.))

https://hotair.com/jazz-shaw/2023/06/26/almost-everyone-hates-whats-happening-too-few-want-it-to-change-n560674
(FROM THE ARTICLE: If you happen to live in the United States (and several other nations, frankly), you’ve probably noticed that things seem to be increasingly going to hell in a handbasket lately. Floods of illegal aliens are being flown and bussed all over the country. The sidewalks in many cities are impassable because of massive homeless encampments littered with drug addicts who are, in some cases, literally overdosing right out on the street. Parking your car at the curb for more than three minutes in many urban areas while running errands is basically a sign that you really wanted to get a new car anyway. If you’re lucky enough to somehow find a public school where any of the children can read at grade level, the staff will probably start trying to trans your kid as soon as you pull out from the parking lot. And overseas, our former partners and allies appear to be abandoning America in droves. It’s not just your imagination. And with all of this going on, it’s no wonder that the numbers in the latest NBC News survey on the state of the nation look so dismal. When asked if the country is currently on the right track or wrong track, a shocking 74% said we were going in the wrong direction. They somehow managed to locate one in five who said that things are going well, but I assume none of them live in Chicago or San Francisco. (NY Post))

— Democrats say “Slavery’s descendants: America’s family secret. More than 100 U.S. leaders — lawmakers, presidents, governors and justices — have slaveholding ancestors, a Reuters examination found. Few are willing to talk about it.” I should write a book about my critics/opponents who have hinted/implied/argued/shouted that my ancestors were slave owners. Better yet, I should sue them. While all my ancestors immigrated during the 1840s and 1850s, they always lived in northeast Illinois.

(FROM THE ARTICLE: They include some of the most influential politicians in America: Republican senators Mitch McConnell, Lindsey Graham and Tom Cotton, and Democrats Elizabeth Warren, Tammy Duckworth and Jeanne Shaheen. In addition, Reuters determined that President Joe Biden and every living former U.S. president — except Donald Trump — are direct descendants of slaveholders: Jimmy Carter, George W. Bush, Bill Clinton and — through his white mother’s side — Barack Obama. Two of the nine sitting U.S. Supreme Court justices — Amy Coney Barrett and Neil Gorsuch — also have direct ancestors who enslaved people.)

— Democrats say “Are guaranteed-income programs working? Thousands of Chicago and Cook County residents got $500 a month the past year.

I did yard work and delivered newspapers in Crete 1962-1964; washed dishes in Chicago Heights 1964-1966; cleaned golf shoes in Flossmoor and chipped slag and pumped gasoline in South Chicago Heights in 1966; delivered mail in Park Forest 1966-1969; worked on an automobile assembly line in Belvidere and as a security guard in DeKalb in 1970, sold tires, automotive services, and major appliances in Chicago Heights 1970-1971, pumped gasoline in Chicago Heights 1971-1972, collected delinquent taxes in Chicagoland 1971-1980, and audited federal agencies 1980-1997. I earned four job-related college degrees, six job-related professional certifications, and a job-related professional license.

QUAD CITY TIMES
— Democrats ever-increasingly demand that employers pay a “living wage.” A “living wage” is far more than a minimum wage. Minimum wage jobs are for those who have little or no job skills or work experience – typically teenagers. Why should employers be expected/forced to pay a “living age” to anyone who has little or no job skills or work experience? Back in the “good old days,” I earned the minimum wage ($12.05/hour in today’s dollars) while I washed dishes in the basement of the S.S. Kresge in Chicago Heights and lived with my parents in Crete and attended Crete-Monee High School. With the money that I earned, I bought a new 1966 Pontiac Tempest Sprint in May of 1966 that I used to get to/from my parents’ home and a) jobs cleaning golf shoes in Flossmoor and chipping slag and pumping gasoline in Chicago Heights during the summer of 1966, b) my job delivering mail for the Park Forest Post Office 1966-1967, and c) classes at UIC 1966-1967. I sold it in December of 1967 and bought a new 1968 Oldsmobile 442.

POLITICO ILLINOIS
— Concerns of pre-slating sexism – SHIA KAPOS (COMMENT: Why don’t Republican county party organizations in Illinois have slating meetings like the Democrats have? Who will the Republican candidates be for Auditor, Clerk of the Court, and Recorder of Deeds in DuPage County? Who will the Republican candidates be for DuPage County Board seats and for DuPage County Forest Preserve seats?)
https://www.politico.com/newsletters/illinois-playbook/2023/06/16/concerns-of-pre-slating-sexism-00102383
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Alarm bells were raised at the pre-slating meeting Thursday for the Cook County Democratic Party, where wanna-be candidates for 2024 made a pitch for endorsements. This is a get-to-know-you meeting before official slating in August. Judicial candidates starred in Thursday’s pre-slating. Today, candidates for county offices and the water board will make their case. More on that below. Serious concerns: During Thursday’s presentation, Maggie O’Keefe, the committeewoman for the 40th Ward, called out the Illinois State Bar Association for not recommending more women of color. O’Keefe had expressed similar concerns ahead of the 2022 primary.)

I should write a book about my RINO leaders in Illinois Republican Party, DuPage County Republican Central Committee, and Milton Township Republican Organization have used AA since 2000 to make many/big adverse actions against me so that could advance minorities, females, and younger people over me, which is exactly what they did.)

I delivered mail in 1967, 1968, and 1969. The aforesaid enabled me a) to buy a 1958 Chevrolet Bel Air in 1964, b) to buy a new 1966 Pontiac Tempest Sprint in 1966, c) to pay for my UIC expenses 1966-1968, d) to buy a new 1968 Oldsmobile 442 in 1967, e) to buy a new 1969 Dodge Charger SE in 1968, f) to pay for my NIU expenses in 1969 and 1970, and g) to graduate debt-free from NIU in 1970 with a bachelor’s degree in management and owning that Charger.

I would focus on the following demographics: heterosexual, conservative, Republicans, White, male, older, non-poor, draft-avoider, married, gun-owner, Protestant, German American, and those whose ancestors have been in America for a long time. I would focus on high-profile hate-filled Trump-hating Trump-haters in Wheaton, in Milton Township, in DuPage County, and in Illinois who use Trump’s wrongdoing against me because I share the so many of Trump’s demographics.

https://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2023/apr/21/looting-as-way-of-life/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: As for the street version of looting, Chicago’s next mayor, Brandon Johnson, refused to strongly condemn rioting in his city. Hundreds of “youths” rampaged downtown, attacking tourists and smashing things. But the mayor-elect seemed more worried that the little rascals might have become unpopular. “In no way do I condone the destructive activity we saw in the Loop and lakefront this weekend,” he said. “It is unacceptable and has no place in our city. However, it is not constructive to demonize youth who have otherwise been starved of opportunities in their own communities.” It’s not their fault, you see. In 2020, Mr. Johnson was interviewed after looters ransacked dozens of stores in Chicago’s Magnificent Mile. The young newswoman repeatedly gave Mr. Johnson a chance to decry the lawlessness. But he would have none of it. Instead, he ranted against — you guessed it — corporations that make “profit.” You know, the ones that manufacture or sell things that make modern life possible. One of those awful corporations, Walmart, is closing four Chicago stores because they are losing too much money to thieves and are unable to protect employees and customers from violent criminals. Mr. Johnson insisted that the mobs of teens and 20-somethings cleaning out stores just want to be able to “eat.” That’s why they steal those yummy cigarettes, beer, jewels, Coach purses and smartphones. The same goes for a dozen looters who ransacked a Louis Vuitton store in nearby Oak Brook, Illinois, last year, making off with $100,000 in merchandise. They just want to eat, too. More and more companies are showing that they have finally had it with crime-ridden cities.)

DAILY HERALD
— Democrats say that Peter Pettorini, a Round Lake High teacher and Millburn District 24 school board member, is under criminal investigation. Political parties exist to help elect candidates who can and will defend and advance their platform. In Diersen’s opinion, political parties a) should be required to fully investigate candidates who want to run as a member of their party and b) to have the power and to use that power to stop bad candidates from running as a member of their party. But of course, political parties would abuse that power. The Illinois Republican Party, DuPage County Republican Central Committee, and Milton Township Republican Organization (MTRO) have made it extremely clear that if I ran for any kind of government office as a Republican, they would stop me. I should write a book about how MTRO destroyed me when I ran for an open MTRO Treasurer position in 2004. I should write a book about how they ended my service as a) the Republican fundraiser for Wheaton Independence Day parades and fireworks 2005-2019, b) the chairman of TAPROOT Republicans of Illinois 2005-2012, c) a member of the Wheaton Chamber of Commerce Government Affairs Committee 2003-2011, d) the webmaster for MTRO 2008-2010 and 2000-2004, e) a member of the Illinois Center Right Coalition (ICRC) Steering Committee 2003-2007, and f) a member of the American Association of Political Consultants Midwest Chapter board 2001-2004. I should write a book about how they a) almost stopped me from reporting which high-profile Republicans spoke at and attended the February 20, 2023 DeSantis event in Elmhurst, b) ended my bid to be appointed to fill the Wheaton City Council West District vacancy in 2019, c) gerrymandered my precinct in 2015, and d) almost got ICRC to censure me for my GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters in 2006.

FOX ILLINOIS
— Democrats say that a Florida Republican State Senator, Blaise Ingoglia, Spring Hill, has introduced “The Ultimate Cancel Act’ to kill state Democratic Party.” Government is nasty/vicious. Politics is nasty/vicious. Ever-increasingly, Democrats a) paint themselves as having been the Union Army in the Civil War and b) paint Republicans as having been the Confederate Army in the Civil War. Democrats promoted the KKK and Jim Crow laws. I am proud to say that my parents, my grandparents, my great grandparents, and the rest of my ancestors were all Republicans. I should write a book about my Black superiors, Black supervisors, Black coworkers, and Black subordinates in the federal government who rejected tremendous efforts by my Democrat superiors, supervisors, coworkers, and subordinates to paint me as being a White supremacist, Nazi, KKK member, hater, racist, sexist, bigot, and even worse things who should be gotten rid of once and for all.

(FROM THE ARTICLE: The Democratic Party is all but dead in Florida — no Democrat holds a statewide office — and now a state senator who was chairman of the Florida Republican Party is trying to kill it entirely. Sen. Blaise Ingoglia, R-Spring Hill, introduced SB1248 — “The Ultimate Cancel Act” — on Tuesday, “requiring the Division of Elections to immediately cancel the filings of a political party if certain conditions exist.” Among those conditions: “If the party’s platform has previously advocated for, or been in support of, slavery or involuntary servitude.” Southern Democrats wanted to continue slavery during the Civil War. Florida seceded from the U.S. when Republican Abraham Lincoln became president. That was well over 150 years ago. If passed, the new law would take effect July 1 and the Florida Democratic Party would have to reregister. Ingoglia had been a state representative and until recently, chairman of the Florida Republican Party. Last November, the multi-millionaire home builder was elected in an open district representing parts of Citrus, Hernando, Sumter, and Pasco counties. He beat Brian Moore of the Green Party; there was no Democrat in the race. Then, within weeks, he opened a campaign account as a first step in seeking re-election in 2024, according to the state Division of Elections website.)

— Democrats say that student borrowers anxiously await Supreme Court decision on federal loan forgiveness. Did you get a student loan? I did not. I doubt that I could have anyway. I was not “college material.” I only just barely made it into the upper 20% of my high school class. My ACT score was only 24. Neither of my parents attended college. My father was the first of my ancestors to earn a high school diploma. My mother never attended high school. During my junior and senior years in high school and the summer in between, instead of studying, I washed dishes to earn money for tuition and books at UIC and a new 1966 Pontic Tempest Sprint to commute to classes there from my parents’ home in Crete.

CAL THOMAS
— Democrats need a day of atonement (COMMENT: I am proud to say that my parents, my grandparents, my great grandparents, and the rest of my ancestors were all Republicans.)
https://www.lubbockonline.com/story/opinion/2021/06/23/history-and-why-democrats-might-need-day-atonement/5309053001/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: With the creation of June 19th (“Juneteenth”) as a federal holiday, Democrats have one more claim to be the party of civil rights and equal opportunity for African Americans, though most Republicans also voted for the holiday. That claim has been promoted for decades by a compliant media, academia and high-profile politicians, but the facts say otherwise. From Abraham Lincoln’s Emancipation Proclamation in 1863 to the mid-20th century, members of the Democratic Party, dominant in the South due to its opposition to civil and political rights for African Americans,” were on the wrong side of civil rights. Federal troops finally brought the news of emancipation to Galveston, Texas, on June 19, 1865, meeting resistance from plantation owners. This is the same year the Ku Klux Klan was founded. Nathan Bedford Forrest, a Confederate Army general and a Democrat, was the first grand wizard of the KKK, though he tried disbanding it in 1869 after growing critical of its “excessive violence.” The Klan, which numbered 4 million members at its peak, dedicated itself as History.com notes, “to an underground campaign of violence against Republican leaders and voters (both Black and white) in an effort to reverse the policies of Radical Reconstruction and restore white supremacy in the South.” The Washington Examiner cited 12 examples of how Southern Democrats historically opposed civil rights while Reconstruction-era Republicans favored them. The newspaper noted Democrats voted against “every piece of civil rights legislation in Congress from 1866 to 1966.” Congressional Democrats opposed the 13th Amendment, which officially freed the slaves in 1865. Only four Democrats voted for it. Republicans passed the 14th Amendment in 1866, which granted American citizenship to former slaves. Not one of the 56 congressional Democrats voted for the 15th Amendment in 1869, which gave former slaves the right to vote. Republicans backed all the civil rights laws of the 1860s, including the Civil Rights Act of 1866 and the Reconstruction Act of 1867. Their party was founded on an anti-slavery platform. Fast-forward to the 1960s. President Kennedy was reluctant to push too hard for civil rights for fear of losing Southern support. After his assassination, President Johnson claimed Kennedy was passionately for civil rights and used his death to advance legislation in Congress. Once again, powerful Democrats in the South opposed every bill. A Senate office building is named after one of them, Sen. Richard B. Russell of Georgia, leader of the Senate’s Southern caucus. Curious that as statues and memorials depicting former slave owners and those associated with slavery and racism have been removed from various locations, Russell’s name remains on that building. The Examiner noted a PBS program that stated, “The Democratic Party was responsible for passing Jim Crow laws, in addition to Black Civil Codes that forced Americans to utilize separate drinking fountains, swimming polls, and other facilities in the 20th century.” Chief Justice Earl Warren, a Dwight Eisenhower appointee, read the unanimous opinion in Brown v. Board of Education, declaring segregated schools unconstitutional. Eisenhower also ordered federal troops to Little Rock, Arkansas, in the face of opposition to integrating Central High School by Gov. Orval Faubus, a Democrat. Republican Senator Everett Dirksen of Illinois wrote several bills that banned discrimination in housing, culminating in the Civil Rights Act of 1968. Richard Nixon, a Republican, introduced the Philadelphia Plan, the precursor to affirmative action. Republican Ronald Reagan signed legislation establishing the Martin Luther King Jr. national holiday. While Democrats are now claiming another victory for themselves, they might want to consider establishing an additional special occasion. Given their party’s deplorable civil rights record, it could be called a day of atonement.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: But maybe Jussie’s fables had a grain of truth to them: asked after her loss if she blamed racism and sexism for going down in flames at the ballot box, Lightfoot replied: “I’m a black woman in America. Of course.” And Maggie Cullerton Hooper, former deputy finance director of the Illinois Senate Democratic Victory Fund, likened Chicagoans to Trump for having the temerity to show Lightfoot the door. MAGA Country after all!)

I have always done that. But I should write a book about those Republican leaders a) who blame those who supported candidates who lost primary elections, including Pat O’Malley and Jim Oberweis, for losses suffered by candidates in general elections, including Jim Ryan and Judy Barr Topinka, and b) who destroy Republican Precinct Committeemen like me who supported candidates who lost primary elections.

HUFFINGTON POST
— Democrats stress that Trump calls his enemies names. Trump knows that his enemies use that against him. But Trump continues anyway. Government is nasty/vicious. Politics is nasty/vicious. My critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes negatively call me conservative, if not too conservative, if not right-wing, if not overly zealous, if not extremist, if not radical, if not fanatical, and/or stronger things. Of course, they hint/imply/argue/shout that I am a White supremacist, Nazi, KKK member, hater, racist, sexist, bigot, and worse things. They stress my demographics that I share with Trump: conservative, Republican, White, male, older, heterosexual, married, non-poor, gun-owner, draft-avoider, Protestant, German American, and our ancestors have been in America for a long time.

After Romney won the Republican presidential primary in 2012, I did everything that I could to help elect Romney. But those Romney supporters ignore, dismiss, belittle, badmouth, demonize, denigrate, and condemn that.
