https://www.politico.com/newsletters/illinois-playbook/2022/04/26/mar-a-lago-meetings-for-miller-bailey-00027730
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Five of the six top Republican candidates for governor appeared at a Washington, Ill., forum last night to address a range of issues, including the economy and Second Amendment. Darren Bailey, Gary Rabine, Paul Schimpf, Jesse Sullivan, and Max Solomon all attended. The biggest applause came toward the end of the event when Bailey walked across the stage and pointed to an empty chair where Richard Irvin would have been seated. “I want to talk about this empty seat,” Bailey said, pausing for the audience to cheer for a while. Bailey then accused Irvin of “grossly” lying while on the campaign trail. Bailey said Irvin may talk about cutting taxes, “but he raised taxes in Aurora.” And Irvin’s running mate, Avery Bourne, once told Bailey to put on his mask while he was fighting the mask mandate in the General Assembly. “Friends, enough is enough,” Bailey said.)

But a searing experience in London’s Cockpit after the Boston Tea Party convinced Franklin of the necessity of a separation from Great Britain, which would never view its colonial subjects as anything other than second-class citizens.)

Last year, they succeeded in stopping Republicans from helping sponsor Wheaton’s Independence Day parade and fireworks. The year before, they promoted BLM and LGBTQ big time in Wheaton.)

— Paying for College: When Should Families Have ‘The Talk’?
(COMMENT: I never expected my outstanding parents to pay for my college degree. Neither of them attended college. My father was the first of his ancestors to earn a high school diploma. He fought type 1 diabetes from childhood, worked in the office of a nasty chemical plant in Chicago Heights, and almost always worked second jobs to pay the family’s bills. My mother never attended high school.)

— The anti-Semitic origins of diversity and racial ‘representation’ – John Kane-Berman
(COMMENT: I should write a book about those who have worked the hardest to get Jewish people to take adverse actions against me. I would focus on my Democrat superiors in the federal government. They stress that I was baptized, raised, and confirmed as a Missouri Synod Lutheran and that I am 100% German American. In my defense, I stress a) that all my ancestors immigrated from what is now Germany to northeast Illinois during the 1840s and 1850s, b) that my grandfather on my father’s side fought the Germans in WWI, c) that my uncles on my mother’s side fought the Germans in WWII, and d) that my father would have fought the Germans in WWII if he had not been 4-F.)
