— Democrats and Republicans have both failed to address wealth inequality. – Willie Wilson (COMMENT: What are your demographics? What do you owe your accomplishments in life to? According to my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes, I owe all my accomplishments in life to my benefitting tremendously from discrimination against those who are minority, female, younger, veteran, LGBTQ, unmarried, parents, have less money than I do, non-Protestant, non-German America, those whose ancestors have not been in America for a long time, etc. In my defense, neither of my parents attended college. My father was only the first of my ancestors to earn a high school diploma. He never earned more than $50,000/year in today’s dollars. He almost always worked second jobs to pay the family’s bills. My mother never attended high school. I had to work my way through college.)

— The mission for both Biden and Trump at their upcoming debate? Win over “double hater” voters. The term “double haters” burst into the political lexicon this year to describe voters who dislike both Biden and Trump. But that’s the choice before the nation. – Lynn Sweet  (COMMENT: Vote for Biden if you want more dependency on government and charity, LGBTQ, abortion, mass/illegal immigration, booze, gambling, pot, and other vices, diminishment of Second Amendment rights, and/or Affirmative Action and DEI, that is, patronage, political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, age discrimination, religious discrimination, and national origin discrimination. Vote for Trump if you want personal responsibility, traditional marriage and family, right to life, enforcement of immigration laws, conservative values, continuation of Second Amendment rights, and/or equal opportunity (no race or gender based preference giving).)

— Congress Needs to Crack Down on the Government’s Social-Media Censorship – CHARLES C. W. COOKE (COMMENT: Democrats and RINOs run America. They certainly do not want newsletters like GOPUSA ILLINOIS or websites like www.gopillinois.com to promote the Republican Party platform.)

I should write a book about those Republican candidates on ballots in my precinct since 2000 who blame me and who blame my GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters the most for their defeats.

I am an independent non-for-profit conservative Republican aggregator of political and government news and commentary of interest to Illinois Republicans. My critics/opponents who are leaders of the Illinois Republican Party, DuPage County Republican Central Committee, and Milton Township Republican Organization want to a) restrict what I put in my GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters if not stop me from sending those newsletters out and/or b) stop everyone from reading those newsletters. They blame me and blame my newsletters for all the losses that Republican candidates on ballots in my precinct have suffered since 2000. I should write a book about them and the adverse actions that they continue to take against me and the adverse actions that they have taken against me.)

— Millions of Taxpayers Call the IRS for Help. Two-Thirds Don’t Reach Anyone.  The agency hired nearly 7,000 new customer-service representatives, but its internal watchdog group says it still falls short. – Ashlea Ebeling (COMMENT: Have you ever phoned IRS with a tax question? If you did during the 1974 filing season, the IRS employee who answered your call was one of my subordinates. During 1974 IRS filing season, as a 25-year-old GS-11 (currently $80,994/year) IRS Revenue Officer, I supervised all of the IRS employees, which included a rotating staff of about 90 IRS Revenue Agent trainees, in IRS’s new downtown Chicago office who answered taxpayer questions using IRS’s new CentiPhone system. Because of my job performance, the IRS manager who had given me the job and who had promoted me in 1972 and 1973 promoted me to GS-12 (currently $97,079/year). But my Democrat IRS superiors soon got rid of him because they were beyond furious that he given me the CentiPhone job and that he had promoted me instead of an IRS employee who was Democrat, minority, female, and/or veteran. My Democrat superior who led the successful effort to get rid of him was a veteran who was furious that I had avoided the draft.)

They ignored/dismissed/belittled my earning an MBA from Loyola in 1976, passing the CPA examination on my first attempt in 1979, and my earning a master’s degree in accounting from DePaul in 1980. They were beyond furious when GAO assigned me to audits of IRS 1986-1988.)

I should write a book about that. In Illinois, they destroyed TAPROOT Republicans of Illinois and Illinois Center Right Coalition.)
