GOPUSA ILLINOIS
— The DuPage County Republican Central Committee (DCRCC) has barred me from attending its Lincoln Day Dinner in Glen Ellyn on February 27 unless I buy a $75 ticket. I have promoted that event in my GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters since it was announced. Ever since I became the GOPUSA Illinois reporter in 2000, my critics/opponents have used my being the GOPUSA Illinois reporter against me. They use their operatives and their dupes to destroy people 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 wrong doing, and/or who refuse to give them money. I should write about my critics/opponents. I take the many big adverse actions that they have taken against me as badges of honor. But of course, my critics/opponents deny that they took their adverse actions against me for the aforesaid reasons. I should write about all the money I have given the DCRCC since 2000. I should write about the many things that I have done to help elect and help to reelect Republicans in DuPage County since 2000. I should write about those DCRCC leaders who have blamed me and blamed my GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters the most since 2000 a) for defeats suffered by Republican candidates on ballots in my precinct, b) for their problems, c) for your problems, d) for my problems, and e) for everyone’s problems. I should write about DCRCC leaders who since 2000 have taken the most/biggest adverse actions against me. – Dave Diersen

— Is your Republican Precinct Committeeman (RPC) appointed or elected? RINO leaders would never appoint me a RPC. To this day, past and present RINO leaders in Illinois, DuPage County, Milton Township, Wheaton, Wheaton Warrenville School District 2000, and my precinct remain furious that I became an elected RPC in 2000 because Roskam and Hultgren endorsed me over the woman who they ran against me. RINO leaders want RPCs who they can manipulate and dominate, who glorify and praise them, who pander to them, who serve as one of their operatives or dupes, who cover up their wrong doing, and/or who give them money. I refuse to do the aforesaid. RINO leaders reject some, many, most, virtually all, if not all the planks in the Republican Party platform, most commonly, its personal responsibility, traditional marriage and family, right to life, immigration, anti-vice, Second Amendment, and/or equal opportunity (no race or gender based preference giving) planks. RINO leaders not only want to strike the aforesaid planks, they want to get more preference for those who share their demographics. – Dave Diersen

The Democrats who ran IRS would not have promoted me in 1972, 1973, and 1974 if I had not been taking job-related graduate evening courses.
