— Rauner proclaims Juneteenth Day in Illinois (DIERSEN: My critics/opponents have always hinted/implied/argued/shouted that I got jobs and promotions that Blacks should have gotten. According to them, instead of me, a) the Post Office should have hired a Black in 1966, b) the Post Office should gotten rid of me much sooner than it did so that a Black could have my job, c) IRS should have hired a Black in 1971, d) IRS should have promoted Blacks in 1972, 1973, and 1974, e) GAO should have hired a Black in 1980, f) GAO should have promoted a Black in 1986, and g) GAO should have gotten rid of me much sooner than it did so that a Black could have my job and my preferred corner office. My critics/opponents consider the federal government to be the employer of last resort, that is, a dumping ground for those who are lazy, stupid, minority, female, older, disabled, and/or veteran.)

Increasingly, we work together to produce stronger journalism. – David Eads (DIERSEN: Because my critics/opponents cannot manipulate/dominate me, they do not want you to first learn of anything by reading GOPUSA ILLINOIS emails. Consequently, they blacklist me, they blacklist my supporters, they blacklist my emails, and they try to bribe and/or threaten activists, candidates, elected officials, party leaders, major donors, political consultants, etc. Ironically, GOPUSA ILLINOIS emails drive lots of traffic to the websites that my critics/opponents operate.)
