https://www.dailyherald.com/news/20211116/you-cannot-overfund-this-milton-township-officials-debate-mental-health-spending
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Township trustees and Supervisor John Monino tentatively agreed to raise property taxes by roughly $800,000 for the 708 mental health board, named for a state House resolution and created by a referendum vote last spring. A final decision on the tax levy is expected on Dec. 14. . .But township trustees were wary of allocating more money for the first grant cycle, though Monino said the board’s request wasn’t “out of line.” “I think that $1 million is a bit much right now,” said Trustee Jeff Castle, adding that he wanted to see what the board will do next year with the township funding. Trustees gave preliminary approval to a tax increase that would cost the owner of a home with an assessed value of $128,444 — the average in Milton Township — an estimated $17.60. The township covers all or parts of Wheaton, Glen Ellyn, Carol Stream, Lombard, Glendale Heights and Winfield. “It strikes the right balance between fiscal responsibility and providing for the needs of the community,” Trustee Dan Milinko said of the lower amount.)

— FEBRUARY 27, 2017 FLASHBACK: 10 Times You Should Take a Pay Cut – SUZANNE LUCAS
(COMMENT: GAO audits IRS. When I transferred from IRS to GAO in 1980 when I was 31 years old, my Democrat GAO superiors, supervisors, coworkers, and subordinates did not want me to transfer, but failing that, they wanted me to transfer as a GS-4 Step 1 (currently $34,956/year) intern, that is, to suffer a $62,439/year (64%) pay cut in today’s dollars. They painted what GAO Analysts do as being a unique “trade or occupation.” They would not have done that if I had been a Democrat, minority, female, or veteran. They viciously demonized, denigrated, and condemned the fact a) that I had worked for IRS as a Revenue Officer 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) that much of what IRS Revenue Officers do is similar to what GAO Analysts do, c) that I had passed the CPA examination on my first attempt in 1979, d) that I had earned an MBA from Loyola in 1976, and e) that I had almost completed the requirements for a master’s degree in accounting from DePaul. They were furious a) that I suffered a pay cut of only $20,361/year (21%) in today’s dollars to transfer and b) that I transferred with me almost 12 years of federal seniority, 30 days of unused vacation days, and 130 unused sick days.)

(COMMENT: My critics/opponents want the following to muzzle me and to muzzle my GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters: a) leaders of the Illinois Republican Party, DuPage County Republican Central Committee, Milton Township Republican Organization, etc.; b) Republican leaders of Illinois, DuPage County, Milton Township, Wheaton, Wheaton chamber of Commerce, Wheaton Park District, etc.; c) conservative leaders; d) religious leaders; and e) Republican candidates on ballots in my precinct, their political consultants, major donors, fundraisers, pollsters, campaign managers, campaign staff members, campaign volunteers, etc. In my capacity as the GOPUSA Illinois Editor 2005-2019, I raised funds from DuPage Republicans so that DuPage Republican could help sponsor Wheaton’s Independence Day parades and fireworks. This year, the aforesaid succeeded in muzzling me and muzzling my GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters by stopping me from doing that.)
https://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2021/nov/2/conservative-pundit-prager-says-he-feels-muzzled-b/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: “If I say the ‘wrong thing’ — whatever that might be — on my Fireside Chat podcast for PragerU, I can be yanked off YouTube or Facebook. When big business and big government work together to muzzle free speech, that’s fascism,” Mr. Prager said. The nationally syndicated talk show host’s comments came as his company PragerU continues to wage a long legal battle against Google’s YouTube. The 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals last year ruled unanimously against Mr. Prager‘s claim of illegal censorship of conservatives. But Mr. Prager continues to allege that YouTube prevents PragerU from advertising videos due to unexplained violations of community guidelines, restricting other videos as likewise inappropriate and adding a disclaimer that the content may be factually incorrect. “Never in the history of this country has free speech been in such jeopardy. What’s even more shocking is that the threat is not coming directly from the government but from woke corporations,” Mr. Prager said.)

— APRIL 12, 2021 FLASHBACK: Republicans aren’t conservative anymore – Lydia Storella
(COMMENT: What should I say to my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes who stress that none of following came to my defense when Wheaton and the Wheaton Park District (WPD) stopped me this year from raising funds from DuPage Republicans so that DuPage Republicans could help sponsor Wheaton’s Independence Day parade and fireworks: a) leaders of the Milton Township Republican Organization, DuPage County Republican Central Committee, Illinois Republican Party, etc.; b) Republican leaders of Wheaton, WPD, Wheaton Chamber of Commerce, Milton Township, DuPage County, Illinois, etc.; c) conservative leaders; d) religious leaders; and e) Republican candidates on ballots in my precinct, their political consultants, major donors, fundraisers, pollsters, campaign managers, campaign staff members, campaign volunteers, f) etc.?

Should one construe that the aforesaid will not seek a government or political office as a Republican in the future? Should one construe that the aforesaid have “moved to the left?” Should one construe that the aforesaid have become anti-conservative? Or should one construe that my critics/opponents have promised to destroy ANYONE who might come to my defense? If Wheaton and the WPD “let” me raise funds from DuPage Republicans to help sponsor Wheaton’s 2022 Independence Day parade and fireworks like I did 2005-2019, will candidates on June 28, 2022 Republican primary ballots in DuPage County contribute?

Further, I knew that my Democrat superiors would advise me to do things that I would not do, namely, become a Democrat, help them get rid of their employees who shared my demographics, promote the Democrat Party platform, promote political affiliation discrimination, promote reverse discrimination, promote age discrimination, etc. Instead, I took my own advice and earned a) a job-related bachelor’s degree when I was 21 in 1970 and job-related master’s degrees when I was 27, 31, and 48, b) job-related professional certifications when I was 30, 32, 41, 45, 47, and 48, and c) a job-related professional license when I was 32.

Far too many Republican elected officials in Illinois a) view me as being far too conservative; b) promote patronage, political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, and/or age discrimination; c) only want employees who are minority, female, younger than they are, veteran, share their religion, and/or share their national origin, d) only want employees who are blindly loyal to them personally, e) only want employees who they can manipulate/dominate, f) only want employees who glorify and praise them, g) only want employees who pander to them, h) only want employees who cover up their wrong doing, and/or i) only want employees who give them money.)

It would be great if the Illinois Republican Party would publish on its website a list of those who are leading the fight against CRT in each of the 102 counties. It would be great if each of the 102 Republican county party organizations would publish on their websites a list of those who are leading the fight against CRT in each of the school districts in their county.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: A group in Illinois is looking for chapters across the state to help keep tabs on teaching plans they say are dividing children. A parent in Naperville, Shannon Adcock, said she became aware of “culturally responsive teaching” when she was unsuccessful in running for the school board. She said the more she learned about it, the more she felt it was regressive and divisive by teaching children race or gender directly impacts outcomes. “You are having students segregated by their color, by their sexuality, by their any number of filters that an activist teacher can choose and say ‘so because of your skin color you are a problem, because of your skin color you will never make it in life, because of this intangible systemic problem in one of the greatest countries in the world,’ and to me, it’s to me extremely anti-Americanism, it’s anti-child and I believe it to be child abuse,” Adcock told WMAY. “Teach history, there’s no question about that, but when you begin filtering students, this becomes a problem and it’s a violation, a constitutional violation.” She said the curriculum can take many different names and forms, so she and others seeing similar trends in other parts of the state started the website AwakeIL.com as a way to share information with taxpayers, parents and educators about trends around the state. “We are going to preserve the integrity of our constitution, state and federal, and we’re going to take that divisive curricula and segregationist approach to education out of our classrooms,” she said.)

They hinted/implied/argued/shouted that I am “too conservative” and that because of that, the more that I tried to help candidates (distributed their campaign literature in my precinct, displayed their signs on my front yard, got sign locations for them in my precinct, etc.), the fewer votes that those candidates would get. I would focus on the aforesaid who hinted/implied/argued/shouted the most that I am a White supremacist, Nazi, KKK member, hater, racist, sexist, bigot, and even worse things who should be gotten rid of once and for all. Better yet, I should sue them.)
