Attacking federal facilities is an act of war. Democrat leaders have declared a Second Civil War against Republicans. Illegals are their soldiers in their Democrat Army.

https://www.audacy.com/wxrt/news/local/dabrowski-criticizes-pritzker-while-backing-feds-in-chicago
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Republican gubernatorial candidate Ted Dabrowski is voicing support for federal immigration enforcement in Chicago, while taking aim at Governor JB Pritzker’s handling of the issue. At a press conference in DuPage County, where he also picked up endorsements from former DuPage County Auditor Bob Grogan, former state Rep. Jeanne Ives, and former state Rep. Tom Morrison, Dabrowski was asked about armed federal agents patrolling downtown as part of the Department of Homeland Security’s “Operation Midway Blitz.” Dabrowski said he believes state leaders should work with federal authorities instead of opposing them. “I really wish the governor would cooperate with the federal authorities so that we don’t have to have federal authorities running around chasing people,” Dabrowski said. “By not cooperating with the federal authorities, we’re creating more of a mess.” He also accused Pritzker of inflaming tensions around the federal presence. “I think the governor’s words have been fomenting violence and fomenting these agitators to get even more fired up. I wish Governor Pritz would come out and say, stop, we do not want violence. We will not attack our federal authorities. They’re doing their work,” Dabrowski said. The Wilmette Republican tied his criticism to his campaign pledge to repeal Illinois’ sanctuary state law, arguing the state should prioritize residents over what he called “billions of welcoming dollars” for new arrivals. Dabrowski, president of the conservative policy group Wirepoints, entered the 2026 GOP primary earlier this month as the early fundraising leader. He faces a likely challenge from former state Sen. Darren Bailey, the GOP’s 2022 nominee, along with DuPage County Sheriff Jim Mendrick and Lake Forest resident Joe Severino.)

https://www.thecentersquare.com/illinois/article_b482fae5-201c-45e1-8c50-5908933dce3c.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: While Gov. J.B. Pritzker remains unchallenged in the 2026 Democratic Party primary, Republican candidates for governor are lining up support. Former state Reps. Jeanne Ives, R-Wheaton, and Tom Morrison, R-Palatine, announced their endorsements of former Wirepoints President Ted Dabrowski on Monday. Ives supported former state Sen. Darren Bailey, R-Xenia, in 2022 but said there is a better option in 2026. “No one knows the issues better than Ted, and subsequently, nobody is better positioned to attract independent suburban voters on the merits of who can do better for Illinois families,” Ives said. Morrison said Dabrowski is the candidate who can win. “For the past 15 years I’ve known Ted, and whether I was in office or out, I’ve been so grateful for his insights and understanding and how to get Illinois on the new and better path that we’re capable of and that we deserve if we get the right leadership,” Morrison said. Ives, Morrison and former DuPage County Auditor Bob Grogan endorsed Dabrowski at a press conference in Wheaton. Dabrowski also announced several six-figure donors to his campaign. Uline CEO Richard Uihlein and Madison Dearborn co-founder James Perry donated $250,000 each to Ted for Illinois. Investor Noel Moore gave $125,000 and five others gave $100,000 each. The Republican nominee will likely face a significant financial disadvantage against incumbent Gov. J.B. Pritzker. Ives said she believes Dabrowski can win his first attempt at public office, even though Pritzker is a billionaire with the political infrastructure and backing of the Democratic Party of Illinois, which was built by former Illinois House Speaker and DPI Chairman Michael Madigan. “Madigan’s headed to prison. We know it’s a David vs. Goliath fight, but we’re already meeting with people around the state that have had it with Governor Pritzker,” Ives said, pointing out that “David won!” In 2018, Ives challenged incumbent Illinois Gov. Bruce Rauner in the Republican primary and lost. Bailey launched his second gubernatorial run last week after falling to Pritzker in the 2022 general election. Concerned Parents of Illinois founder Kristina McCloy said she is supporting Bailey and his running mate, Cook County Republican chairman Aaron Del Mar. “If you are tired of watching Illinois sink under radical ideologies and leadership, then this is your team. Darren Bailey and Aaron Del Mar are the fighters that Illinois family needs,” McCloy said. DuPage County Sheriff James Mendrick and Lake Forest businessman Joe Severino are also seeking the GOP nomination. Mendrick is endorsed by sheriffs in Iroquois, Jefferson and Macon counties as well as by Carol Stream Mayor Frank Saverino. Mendrick’s running mate is U.S. Army veteran Robert Renteria.)

— Bid to atone for slavery’s sins ignites racially charged City Council clash. A resolution offering an apology to Black Chicagoans for the scourge of slavery passes overwhelmingly but sparks outrage when four Council members vote against the symbolic move.
https://chicago.suntimes.com/politics/2025/09/26/chicago-trump-slavery-apology-alderpeople-lamont-robinson-nick-sposato-city-council
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Four alderpersons voted against a resolution offering Black Chicagoans an apology for America’s enslavement of their ancestors, producing a racially charged clash within the City Council and a final roll call that one supporter called “appalling.” Alds. Raymond Lopez (15th), Nick Sposato (38th), Anthony Napolitano (41st) and James Gardiner (45th) sparked outrage from some of their colleagues for refusing to endorse the resolution, which ultimately passed. The measure sponsored by Ald. Lamont Robinson (4th) issued a formal apology from the City Council “to the Black citizens of Chicago for the historical injustices of slavery, segregation, systemic racism, and the policies that have perpetuated racial inequality.” It overwhelmingly passed 43-4 but not without fireworks at a marathon City Council meeting Thursday. “Shame on you!,” Robinson shouted after Lopez, Sposato, and Napolitano announced they would vote against the resolution. “You have to be able to share with your constituents, your Black constituents — in all damn 50 wards — why you would say no to this resolution. Shame on you!” Robinson said. While the City Council is no stranger to racially charged debates on how to address the city’s long, continued history of segregation and inequity, the “no” votes against the symbolic resolution came as a shock to some of the Council’s most level-headed members. “I was hoping this would be a unanimous one — of all the things we can unanimously support,” said Ald. Maria Hadden (49th), who is Black. “This is a surprising, shocking, appalling piece.” The debate played out against a national backdrop of the Trump administration’s crusade against diversity goals in government and businesses and its efforts to sanitize how Americans look back on the evils of slavery. This month, President Donald Trump ordered the National Park Service to remove from a Georgia historic site an iconic 1863 photograph titled “The Scourged Back” of a formerly enslaved man bearing the scars of past whippings on his back. Gardiner, a Northwest Side alderperson, didn’t explain his no vote. In a brief comment, Napolitano said he voted no because there has been “just as much harm done” to this city “over the last couple of years” as in the past. Sposato, a supporter of Trump, said he would not take responsibility for sins of the past. “There’s a lot of blame to go around, but certainly not the city of Chicago, certainly not my family,” Sposato said. “I apologize to absolutely nobody. I want my name off there. I do not want to be associated with this.” Lopez, a Southwest Side alderperson, said he wouldn’t endorse the resolution because Chicago’s “own economy was not slave driven.” Lopez noted that the city became a haven for freed men and women escaping southern slavery. Half a million people came to Chicago as part of the Great Migration. Lopez said the City Council should focus instead on how to correct current-day injustices “as opposed to constantly looking backwards.” “If we want to talk about the injustices to the Black community, I want to talk about where we have failed. We don’t have to look that far back,” Lopez said. Hadden acknowledged Lopez’s point that the city “didn’t directly deal in enslaved people,” but she rebutted that “the money that built this city and controlled the power did.” She further argued that Lopez and Sposato’s arguments against the resolution were “emblematic of some of the worst behavior that we’re seeing coming out of DC.” “Those who would accuse us of going backwards by recognizing fact and truth, I challenge that sentiment. We’re not the ones going backwards,” Hadden said. “Recognition and apology is part of repair… which are necessary to moving forward.” The resolution notes that slavery thrived in the Midwest after French explorers introduced it to the region in the mid-1700s. Even after Illinois was deemed a “free” state in 1818, state laws in place through the Civil War “subjected free Black residents to oppressive restrictions, including the denial of voting rights.” It goes on to state that following slavery’s abolition in 1865, Black Chicagoans continued to face racial discrimination through redlining, segregation, housing discrimination and other systemic inequities “which persist today.” Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson last year issued a formal apology from the city as a whole to Black Chicagoans through an executive order when he created a task force to study possible economic reparations for Black residents. Evanston, the city’s neighbor to the north, approved the country’s first reparations program for Black residents years ago.)

Dan Band to DuPage County for a powerful concert at Cantigny Park, hosted by the West Suburban Foundation for Disabled Veterans (WSFDV) as part of their Rockin’ For Our Vets event. This incredible benefit concert was held to support U.S. Veterans and their families, with all proceeds going toward housing and essential living needs for disabled veterans—a mission at the heart of WSFDV, a dedicated non-profit organization. We extend our deepest thanks to the Gary Sinise Foundation, Cantigny Park, and Michelle Senatore, co-founder and president of WSFDV, for making this event possible. The DuPage County Sheriff’s Office was proud to stand behind this meaningful cause and be part of such a heartfelt community effort.

https://www.chicagotribune.com/2025/06/12/dupage-naperville-republican-democrat-vote-mail/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: To date, significantly more Democratic primary voters are on the county’s permanent vote-by-mail list, DuPage County Chief Deputy Clerk Adam Johnson. As of Wednesday, there was a total of 98,413 voters on the county’s permanent vote-by-mail list, according to Johnson. That number divides into voters who have opted to receive mail-ballots for general elections only and those who have requested to also receive primary ballots, he said. The latter is how the county can glean the partisan divide in its vote-by-mail program as voters must request either a Democratic or Republican primary ballot. Current numbers show that 47,110 Democratic primary voters have signed up for the program compared to 19,525 Republican voters, Johnson said. Those totals have also grown since the 2022 primary election, which was the first in which the permanent vote-by-mail program was offered. In 2022, there were 20,482 Democratic primary voters compared to 8,009 Republican voters.)

— Chicago’s Springfield delegation socks it to the city’s taxpayers with reckless pension bill. Who do you know who is in line to get a pension or is getting a pension? Ever-increasingly, they are demonized, denigrated, and condemned. I got in line for a Civil Service Retirement System (CSRS) pension when I was 18 in 1966. I have been getting a CSRS pension since I was 49 in 1997. In my defense, I paid 7% of my federal salary into the CSRS. In my defense, if my Democrat GAO superiors had not forced me to retire, I might still be working for GAO and paying into the CSRS. Constructively, so far, in today’s dollars, my Democrat GAO superiors have forced CSRS to pay me $1.85 million to stop me from working for GAO.

— The GOP’s SALT Deal Folly. Republicans make it easier for Democrats to raise state taxes. Before SALT, my wife and I paid less federal income tax by itemizing, both of us staring in 1978 and I starting in 1972. My critics/opponents were always furious about that. I deducted my graduate business and accounting course expenses 1972-1980 and my graduate finance course expenses 1992-1997.

— You Can Still Negotiate a ‘Best and Final’ Job Offer. Job hunters can talk their way into a better deal, even if the salary is set. Ever since I was 31 years old in 1980, my critics/opponents have used against me big time my taking a $23,472/year (21%) pay cut in today’s dollars to transfer from IRS to GAO. They have always hinted/implied/argued/shouted that pay cut proved a) that IRS had grossly overpaid me, that is, that IRS should not have promoted me in 1972, 1983, and 1974 and b) that was an extremely bad person because I had worked for IRS for almost 9 years, the last 5 1/2 years of which at the GS-12 Step 1-5 Levels, currently $99,069/year, because much of what I would do for GAO was similar to what I did for IRS, because GAO audits IRS, because I has almost completed the requirements for a master’s degree in accounting, because I had passed the CPA examination on my first attempt in 1979, and because I had earned an MBA in 1976. I should write about the aforesaid.

— Hundreds of people braved single-digit temperatures to gather in downtown Chicago in opposition to President Donald Trump and his agenda as the 47th president was sworn into office Monday.
https://www.chicagotribune.com/2025/01/20/hundreds-brave-frigid-temperatures-during-march-in-chicago-on-inauguration-day/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Championing a variety of causes including immigrant rights, support for Palestinians and protections for women’s reproductive and LGBTQIA rights, they gathered in Federal Plaza in the Loop to rally, then set off to march to Trump Tower across the river. Demonstrators carried posters reading “Free Palestine Now!,” “Stop the Trump Agenda,” “Immigrant rights and legalization for all” and calling for an end to “police crimes.” They chanted “Donald Trump you racist clown, the people will take you down,” and “No hate, no fear, immigrants are welcome here.” The rally was supported by a broad coalition of dozens of organizations, ranging from the National Alliance Against Racist and Political Repression to the Chicago Teachers Union, the U.S. Palestinian Community Network and the Illinois Coalition for Immigrant and Refugee Rights. Amid news reports that Immigration and Customs Enforcement raids would start Tuesday in Chicago, which Trump’s border czar appeared to walk back after the reports, representatives of the groups said they were united to defend their causes in the face of Trump’s “commitment to ramp up repression.”)
