(COMMENT: Government is nasty/vicious. Politics is nasty/vicious. My critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes in Wheaton, Milton Township, DuPage County, and Illinois hint/imply/argue/shout that because I am White and because I lived and worked in the south suburbs, I benefitted from redlining in the south suburbs. I lived in Crete 1948-1972 and then in University Park full-time 1972-1974 and then part-time 1974-1976. I worked in Chicago Heights 1964-1966 and 1970-1972, in Flossmoor 1966, Park Forest 1966-1969, Harvey 1972-1973, and Joliet 1973-1974.)

— Emotions run high as Naperville officials, community members debate ban on some weapons – Kevin Schmit
(COMMENT: I have had a FOID card since I was 20 in 1968. Expect that ever-increasingly, the longer that you have had a FOID card, the more that Democrats, Libertarians, Greens, Independents, and RINOs will blame you for gun crimes.)
https://www.dailyherald.com/news/20220719/emotions-run-high-as-naperville-officials-community-members-debate-ban-on-some-weapons
(FROM THE ARTICLE: “If you pass that ordinance, you will literally destroy — in the blink of an eye — everything that my family has spent a large part of their lives building together,” said Robert Bevis, owner of Law Weapons and Supply in Naperville. “This ordinance, if passed, would do absolutely zero to prevent even one crime or fatality. It will not stop one criminal intent on coming into the city of Naperville to commit a crime.” . . . National Rifle Association State Director Jon Weber disagreed with DiSanto’s assessment of state law. “Illinois generally prohibits local municipalities from passing their own brand of firearm regulations,” Weber said. “That means any ban passed by the Naperville City Council would be in violation of state law.”)

— Remember what government can do – LEE HAMILTON
(COMMENT: For my Democrat GAO, IRS, and Post Office superiors, their top priority was a) to not hire Republicans and b) to get rid of their employees who were Republican, and especially those who were conservative, patriotic, White, male, older, non-veteran, heterosexual, married, non-poor, gun owners, Protestant, German American, and/or those whose ancestors have been in America for a long time. They wasted my career and forced me to take their early retirement “offer” in 1997 when I was 49 years old.)

CRAIN’S CHICAGO BUSINESS
— Hurting for nurses, hospitals lower the bar. Chicago hospitals are easing hiring standards, sometimes accepting associate degrees or less, as they work to prop up shrinking nursing teams. – KATHERINE
DAVIS (COMMENT: Democrats run the federal government. I should write a book about how Democrats have lowered federal hiring, retention, and promotion standards to hire, retain, and promote Democrats who are minority, female, younger, veteran, LGBTQ, non-Christian, non-Protestant, non-Italian American, non-German American, and/or those whose ancestors have not been in America for a long time. While I worked for the Democrats who ran IRS 1971-1980 and who ran GAO 1980-1997, the following became increasingly worthless: a) my 1970 bachelor’s degree in management from NIU, b) my 1976 MBA from Loyola, c) my 1979 CPA certificate, d) my almost 9 years of experience working for IRS, the last 5 ½ years of which at the GS-12 Step 1-5 Levels, currently $88,229-$99,994/year, e) my 1980 master’s degree in accounting from DePaul, f) my 1981 Certified Internal Auditor certificate and CPA license, g) my 1990 Certified Fraud Examiner certificate, h) my 1994 Certified Government Financial Manager certificate, i) my 1996 Certified Financial Services Auditor certificate, j) my 1997 Forensic Accountant certificate, k) my 1997 master’s degree in financial markets and trading from IIT, and l) my 3 years of experience working on audits of IRS and my 8 years of experience working on audits of federal financial industry regulators . I should write a book about my Democrat coworkers who had less education, less work experience, and/or fewer or no professional certifications and/or licenses than I had who got bigger pay increases than I got and/or were promoted over me.)

CHICAGO MAGAZINE
— COMMENT: Accepting the argument that the more demographics that a voter shares with a candidate, the more likely that voter will vote for that candidate, ever-increasingly, to stop Trump from running again for President, Democrats, Libertarians, Greens, Independents, and RINOs demonize, denigrate, and condemn voters like me who share Trump’s demographics. The more demographics that you share with Trump, the more that they demonize, denigrate, and condemn you. How many demographics do you share with Trump? Both Trump and I are White, male, older (I was born in 1948), draft avoiders, business degree holders, heterosexual, married (me since 1978), federal retirees, non-poor, conservative, patriotic, Republican, American, gun owners (I have had a FOID card since 1968), Protestant, German American, and our ancestors have been in America for a long time (mine have been America since 1844).

POLITICO ILLINOIS
— Republican Congressmen Rodney Davis and Adam Kinzinger joined Democrats in giving overwhelming House approval to legislation protecting same-sex and interracial marriages. The 267-157 vote came up out of concern that the Supreme Court ruling overturning Roe v. Wade threatens other rights. GOP leaders didn’t press representatives to vote on party lines, and Davis and Kinzinger are making their exits from the House after the November elections. – SHIA KAPOS

WASHINGTON TIMES
— Democrats want Constitution ‘completely rewritten’ – Cheryl K. Chumley
(COMMENT: Democrats want America to be run solely by those who are anti-law enforcement, anti-Trump, anti-conservative, anti-patriotic, anti-Republican, anti-American, anti-White, anti-male, anti-older people, anti-heterosexual, anti-traditional marriage/family, anti-non-poor people, anti-gun owners, anti-Christian, anti-Protestant, anti-Italian American, anti-German American, and/or anti-those whose ancestors have been in America for a long time.)
https://m.washingtontimes.com/news/2022/jul/19/democrats-want-constitution-completely-rewritten/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: A new survey from Rasmussen Reports and the Heartland Institute found that 57% of Democrats believe the Constitution is “rooted in racism,” another 64% think it’s “sexist,” and 49% — statistically half — feel it should be “mostly or completely rewritten.” There you have it; Democrats hate America and want to utterly destroy its foundations. It’s not like Americans didn’t already know this about the Democratic Party. It’s just that seeing the hatred for America by the numbers, the statistics, the percentages — seeing it so black and white like that makes it all the more definitive. It makes the danger of Democrats to the future of American liberties all the more clarified. If half of Democrats think the Constitution is in need of replacement, then it’s easy to see how the party of Democrats has tipped to become an enemy of the patriotic people. We’re not talking about just a few wayward leftists; we’re talking half of all Democrats.)

(COMMENT: Of course, my critics/opponents want the following to admit racism, sexism, bigotry, and even worse things and to apologize for that: a) the organizations that I am a member of (GOPUSA and Milton Township Republican Organization), b) the organizations that I was active in (TAPROOT Republicans of Illinois, Wheaton Chamber of Commerce Government Affairs Committee, Illinois Center Right Coalition, American Association of Political Consultants Midwest Chapter, Institute of Internal Auditors Chicago Chapter, Illinois CPA Society, Association of Government Accountants Chicago Chapter), c) the employers that I worked for (GAO, IRS, Firestone Stores, Post Office, etc.), d) the municipality that I live in (Wheaton), e) the municipalities that I formerly lived in (Chicago, University Park, and Crete), and f) the schools that I attended (IIT, Roosevelt, DePaul, Loyola, NIU, UIC, Crete-Monee High School, Hope Lutheran Grade School, and Trinity Lutheran Grade School). According to my critics/opponents, whatever success that I had in the aforesaid was because I benefitted from their racism, sexism, bigotry, and even worse things.)

WASHINGTON POST
— COMMENT: Liberals are far better organized than conservatives. Liberals work together to promote dependency on government, dependency on charity, LGBTQ, abortion, mass/illegal immigration, booze, gambling, pot, and other vices, abolition of the First and Second Amendments, patronage, political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination (Affirmative Action, Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, CRT, 1619, BLM, reparations, replacement theory, wokeness/wokeism), and age discrimination. In Illinois, liberals, moderates, their operatives, and their dupes worked together to destroy many conservative organizations including TAPROOT Republicans of Illinois and Illinois Center Right Coalition. I should write a book about that.

— Black workers are 67% more likely to be displaced than their white peers, according to a new study. – Stacy M. Brown
(COMMENT: Are you White? I am. Have you been displaced? I have. My Democrat GAO superiors displaced me in 1997 when I was 49 years old and gave my Black subordinate my job and my preferred corner office. When I was 22 in 1971, Oldsmobile withdrew a job offer that I had accepted saying that it had just agreed to stop hiring Whites to settle an EEOC complaint.)

— FRONT PAGE WITH COLOR PICTURE: Without Roe, what happens to IVF? People struggling to conceive worry embryos are at risk. – Trevor Hughes
(COMMENT: Government is nasty/vicious. Politics is nasty/vicious. Democrats are nasty/vicious. I should write a book about my nasty/vicious Democrat GAO superiors, supervisors, coworkers, and subordinates a) who hinted/implied/argued/shouted that I lied about my and my wife’s fertility problems, about the medical procedures that we went through to have children, and about our sincerity about wanting to have children and b) who punished me severely for our giving up trying to have children, for our not adopting, and for our not becoming foster parents. They forced the GAO manager to retire in 1987 who had arranged for my transfer from IRS in 1980, had gotten me assigned to audits of IRS in 1986, and had promoted me in 1986. They gave me unfair job assignments, performance expectations, and performance appraisals. They did not promote me beyond GS-13. They always ranked me in the bottom half of my coworkers for pay-for-performance purposes. They threw me off audits of IRS in early 1989 for the rest of my GAO career. They forced me to take their early retirement “offer” in 1997 when I was 49 years old.)

ARIZONA’S FAMILY
— Arizona GOP censures House Speaker Rusty Bowers
(COMMENT: I should write a book about “Republican” activists, candidates, elected officials, party leaders, major donors, political consultants, fundraisers, pollsters, campaign managers, campaign staff members, campaign volunteers, etc. in Illinois, DuPage County, Milton Township, and Wheaton who have worked the hardest against the Republican Party platform. I would focus on those who have worked the hardest to promote dependency on government, dependency on charity, LGBTQ, abortion, mass/illegal immigration, booze, gambling, pot, and other vices, abolition of the First and Second Amendments, patronage, political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination (Affirmative Action, Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, CRT, 1619, BLM, reparations, replacement theory, wokeness/wokeism), and age discrimination. I would focus on the aforesaid who have taken the biggest adverse actions against me.)
https://www.azfamily.com/2022/07/20/arizona-gop-censures-house-speaker-rusty-bowers/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The Arizona GOP executive committee censured House Speaker Rusty Bowers on Tuesday night, stating he has “lost the confidence of a majority of Republican party leaders.” Dr. Kelli Ward, Chairwoman of the Arizona GOP, confirmed the censure via Twitter. “The AZGOP Executive Committee has formally censured Rusty Bowers tonight — he is no longer a Republican in good standing & we call on Republicans to replace him at the ballot box in the August primary,” tweeted Ward. The GOP press release highlighted some bills Bowers had backed that Republicans say went against his party. Republicans had pushed HB 2294, which stated only two genders should be named on all government documents, whereas Bowers was the sole Republican who opposed the bill. The GOP also said in the release that Bowers had joined Democrats to sponsor a $1 billion education spending bill and also killed a bill to reinstate the Pledge of Allegiance in Arizona schools permanently. “Bowers has demonstrated he is unfit to serve the platform of the Republican Party and will of the voter of the Republican Party of Arizona,” read the release.)

NEW AMERICAN JOURNAL
— Public Confidence in the Press, Media and American Institutions Continues Free Fall in the U.S. – Glynn Wilson

I should write a book about my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes a) who claim to be religious, conservative, and/or Republican but b) who do everything that they can to stop me from sending out those newsletters and to stop everyone from reading those newsletters. I would focus on past and present a) leaders of the Illinois Republican Party, DuPage County Republican Central Committee, and Milton Township Republican Organization, b) Republican leaders of Illinois, DuPage County, Milton Township, Wheaton, Wheaton Park District, Wheaton Chamber of Commerce, and Downtown Wheaton Association, c) Republican Precinct Committeemen in Illinois, DuPage County, and Milton Township, d) conservative leaders, e) religious leaders, and f) Republican candidates on ballots in my precinct and their political consultants, major donors, fundraisers, pollsters, campaign managers, campaign staff members, and campaign volunteers. I would focus on those who stopped me from raising funds from Republicans so that Republicans could help sponsor Wheaton’s Independence Day parades and fireworks. I would focus on those who ever-increasingly promote LGBTQ in Wheaton.)
https://www.newamericanjournal.net/2022/07/public-confidence-in-the-press-media-and-american-institutions-continues-free-fall-in-the-u-s/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: What would Gallup have them do to get public confidence back? Fox reports what the conservatives want to see. MSNBC reports what the liberals want to see. Most people can’t afford to pay or don’t have time to read The New York Times or Washington Post online, and in fact, the act of reading at all is way down. So people who can at least afford to pay for cable TV feel they can watch all the sensational news and find out what’s going on to some extent. Many now turn to Facebook or Twitter to see the headlines. In-depth reading is the province of a few old Baby Boomers like me. So I read the Times and the Post every day and share the important stories and write many of them myself, getting the news out on a readable website that is still free online with no paywall, no sponsored content and no popup ads.)
