— Illinois Political Leaders Give Mixed Reactions to Gov. Pritzker’s Reelection Bid
https://www.nbcchicago.com/news/local/illinois-political-leaders-give-mixed-reaction-to-gov-pritzkers-reelection-bid/2558870/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Illinois Republican Party Chairman Don Tracy said the governor failed residents in responding to the pandemic when it came to addressing in-person learning, getting back to work and nursing home care. “Governor Pritzker’s record on helping Illinois through the pandemic is a failure. I look forward to talking about that and his radical policy agenda out of step with Illinoisans in the upcoming election,” Tracy said in a statement. Paul Schimpf, Republican candidate for Illinois governor, also issued a statement on Pritzker’s reelection Monday, calling his time in office the “Pritzker Leadership Deficit.” “In three years, JB Pritzker has demonstrated he has neither the vision nor the leadership skills to unite our state. Simply put, Illinoisans deserve better–they deserve a leader with commonsense who will renew our state,” Schimpf said.)

CHICAGO SUN-TIMES
— Pritzker launches reelection bid: ‘We have so much more we can do together’ – Rachel Hinton
(DIERSEN: From what I see, disgustingly, outrageously, and tragically, Pritzker’s top priorities include promoting 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, and age discrimination.)

DAILY HERALD
— Yes, block deportations of immigrants serving in the U.S. military. Congress should move to pass Duckworth bill blocking deportations involving military personnel. – Editorial
(DIERSEN: What do you think Duckworth thinks of you? From what I see, Duckworth would have a very low opinion of me. I avoided the draft. I oppose race and gender based preference giving. I oppose mass/illegal immigration. I oppose the promotion of CRT, 1619, reparations, and BLM. I oppose the promotion of LGBTQ, abortion, abolition of the First and Second Amendments, booze, gambling, pot, and other vices, patronage, political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, and age discrimination. I am pro-law enforcement. I oppose hatred of Trump. I am conservative, Republican, White, male, old (born in 1948), gun owner, baptized, raised, and confirmed as a Missouri Synod Lutheran, 100% German American, and my ancestors have been in America since 1844.)

ILLINOIS FAMILY INSTITUTE
— The Toxic Spread of Oppression-Obsessed Ideologies in Education – Laurie Higgins
(DIERSEN: According to Democrats, Libertarians, Greens, Independents, and RINOs, Republicans are oppressors, and especially Republicans who are law enforcement officers, Trump supporters, conservative, patriotic, White, male, older, heterosexual, married, non-veteran, non-poor, gun owners, Christian, Protestant, Italian American, German American, and/or those whose ancestors have been in America for a long time. What gives someone power to oppress others? From what see, the main things include a) the power to hire, retain, promote, and terminate employees and b) the power to admit, grade, and graduate students.)

WASHINGTON TIMES
— Democrats, Big Tech look to divide Black America Disinformation that Republicans are racist has spread far and wide – Bruce LeVell
(DIERSEN: Where you live, how successful have Democrats, Libertarians, Greens, Independents, and RINOs been in a) getting minorities to hate White Republicans, b) getting females to hate male Republicans, c) getting younger people to hate older Republicans, d) getting veterans to hate non-veteran Republicans, e) getting LGBTQers to hate heterosexual Republicans, f) getting non-married people to hate married Republicans, g) getting people who have financial and/or health problems to hate Republicans who do not have financial or health problems, h) getting non-gun owners to hate Republicans who are gun owners, i) getting non-Christians to hate Republicans who are Christian, j) getting non-Protestants to hate Republicans who are Protestant, k) getting non-Italian Americans to hate Republicans who are Italian American, l) getting non-German Americans to hate Republicans who are German American, j) getting non-Trump supporters to hate Republicans who are Trump supporters, k) getting moderates and liberals to hate Republicans who are conservative, and l) getting those whose ancestors have not been in America for a long time to hate Republicans whose ancestors have been in America for a long time? I should write about the success that Democrat, Libertarian, Green, Independent, and RINO hate-promoters have had since 2000 in Illinois, DuPage County, DuPage County’s 4th District, Milton Township, Wheaton, Wheaton’s West District, my precinct, and my neighborhood.)

During the last 1, 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 35, 40, 45, 50+ years, what percent of those who have moved into your neighborhood, your precinct, your municipal district, your municipality, your township, your county district, and your county have been Democrats?
