CHICAGO SUN-TIMES
— Democrats say “Facing lawsuit by white business owner, Cook County retools grant program for minorities, women.” Ever-increasingly, Democrats and RINOs use government to discriminate against Republicans, and especially against Republicans who are conservative, White, male, older, Christian, Protestant, Italian American, German American, and/or those whose ancestors have been in America for a long time.

https://wgnradio.com/news/political-news/haley-ramaswamy-among-those-taking-on-woke-ideology-in-sc/

WBEZ
— Democrats say “The CTA as a last resort for the homeless.” It seems that because more and more and more Democrats live in DuPage County, in Milton Township, and in Wheaton, Chicago Democrats send fewer homeless there.

SPRINGFIELD STATE JOURNAL REGESTER
— AUGUST 16, 2012 FLASHBACK: A bunch of political info — daily – Bernard Schoenburg (COMMENT: Needless-to-say, my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes despise/hate this article.)
https://www.sj-r.com/story/news/state/2012/08/16/bernard-schoenburg-bunch-political-info/41733104007/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: There are lots of websites that compile political news, and I think it’s time I share one that I find quite interesting. It’s at www.gopillinois.com, and, as you can tell by its address, it has a Republican flavor. That is an understatement reinforced with the comments added by the compiler himself — DAVID DIERSEN of Wheaton.)

STATELINE
— Democrats say “Mandatory paid time off: ‘a strain’ for Illinois business.” Since 1966, when I was 18 years old and started working part-time for the Park Forest Post Office, I have benefitted from the federal employee leave policies. I should write a book about those who have held that against me the most.

NPR ILLINOIS
— Democrats say “20 years after the U.S. invasion, many young Iraqis say their lives were shaped by it.” How has the Viet Nam War impacted you? I should write a book about how the Viet Nam War has impacted me. I would focus on those who have demonized me, denigrated me, and condemned me the most because I avoided the Viet Nam War draft. I would focus on my Democrat Post Office, Firestone Stores, IRS, and GAO superiors and supervisors who took the most/biggest adverse actions against me.

WILL COUNTY GAZETTE
— How many Will County students failed their Math exams in 2022? (COMMENT: I graduated from Crete-Monee High School in 1966. While I only just barely made it into the upper 20% of my class and my ACT score was only 24, my Crete-Monee High School education back then enabled me to a) earn a bachelor’s degree in management from NIU in 1970, b) earn an MBA from Loyola in 1976, c) pass the CPA examination on my first attempt in 1979, d) earn a master’s degree in accounting from DePaul in 1980, e) pass the Certified Internal Auditor examination on my first attempt in 1981, f) become a licensed CPA in 1981, and g) earn a master’s degree in financial markets and trading from IIT in 1997.)
https://willcountygazette.com/stories/640266683-how-many-will-county-students-failed-their-math-exams-in-2022
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Nearly 7 in 10 Will County public high school students aren’t at grade level in Math. That’s according to a Will County Gazette analysis of 2022 test score data compiled by the Illinois State Board of Education (ISBE). ISBE reports that last year, 68.1 percent of Will County’s 7,951 public high school students failed the Math portion of the Scholastic Aptitude Test (SAT) and have “minimal (or) incomplete… understanding of the knowledge and skills relative to Illinois Learning Standards.” Students can achieve four proficiencies in their subjects (partially met, approaching, meets, and exceeds standards). This report concludes students who partially met or approached the standards have failed in the subject. Crete-Monee High School (89.9 percent), Joliet Central High School (87.6 percent), and Beecher High School (86.9 percent) had the highest failure rates in Will County.)

— Democrats say “Senate Republicans say the increasingly nasty Trump-DeSantis sparring is how you get to the best possible 2024 candidate and they expect a no-holds-barred fight.” I should write a book about the nastiest Republican primaries and the nastiest nonpartisan races on ballots in my precinct since 2000. I would focus on those races in which candidates blame me and my GOPUSA ILLINOIS newsletters a) for the nastiness, b) for their winning by a smaller margin than they expected, and/or c) for their losing. I would focus on those candidates who have taken the most/biggest adverse actions against me.

— Democrats say “Some Trump rivals rally to his side as possible charges loom.” Who has rallied to your side when you have been attacked?

Because so few have rallied to my side, my book would be extremely thin. In that book, I would focus on those who have destroyed those who have rallied to my side.

Those newsletters fill tremendous communication voids in Illinois, in DuPage County, in Milton Township, and in Wheaton.

SIOUX CITY JOURNAL
— Democrats say “Thurston County has denied claims that redrawn county board of supervisors districts purposely discriminate against Native American voters who make up a majority of the county’s population in order to ensure white politicians maintain control of the board.” One could analyze the impact of proposed DuPage County precinct line changes in terms of voter demographics including: political affiliation, race, gender, sexual orientation, age, parenthood, religion, national origin, length of time ancestors have been in America, renter/home owner, housing stock age/size, income, net worth, veteran status, union membership, etc. Because Democrats are doing the redrawing, expect that areas that have voters with demographics that vote for Republicans will be further split up.

(FROM THE ARTICLE: The current plan was adopted, the county said, because it aligned supervisor district boundaries with voting precinct boundaries to make the ballot process simpler and to reduce election costs.)

— Democrats oppose meritocracy because with meritocracy, Republicans do better than Democrats. Because their Democrat employees could not do what I did, my Democrat GAO superiors were furious.

And, I became a licensed CPA in 1981, Certified Fraud Examiner in 1990, Certified Government Financial Manager in 1994, Certified Financial Services Auditor in 1996, and Certified Forensic Accountant in 1997. Because their Democrat employees could not do what I did, my Democrat IRS superiors were furious. I earned an MBA from Loyola in 1976 and I passed the CPA examination on my first attempt in 1979. Because their Democrat employees could not do what I did, my Democrat Post Office superiors were furious. I earned a bachelor’s degree in management from NIU in 1970.
