GOPUSA ILLINOIS
— QUESTION: Who do hate-filled Trump-hating Trump-haters punish the most? ANSWER: Conservative Republicans like me who share the most demographics with Trump and who communicate the most. Both Trump and I are White, male, old, non-poor, married, draft avoiders, Protestant, German American, and our ancestors have been in America for a long time. I put together and send out a newsletter every morning that is read my many thousands in Illinois. Since 2015, hate-filled Trump-hating Trump-haters in Wheaton, Milton Township, DuPage County, and Illinois have taken many big adverse actions against me. I should write a book about that. – Dave Diersen

IBENDAHL ON POLITICS
— Obliterating the last remaining lie of the direct election opponents (COMMENT: I should write a book about those past and present Illinois Republican Party State Central Committee members who have taken the most/biggest adverse actions against me since 2000.)
https://ibendahlonpolitics.com/2024/05/14/obliterating-the-last-remaining-lie-of-the-direct-election-opponents/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Defenders of a failed status-quo whined for years that we couldn’t allow Republican primary voters to have a vote again for the Illinois GOP’s governing board because we would get Democrats on our state central committee. Of course this was always just a manufactured lie. And the hacks who parroted that phony talking point could never explain how that would ever realistically happen. Further, the Illinois GOP had direct elections for the members of the state central committee prior to 1986 (the same voting right every Illinois Democrat STILL enjoys in their state party) and there is absolutely zero evidence Democrat infiltration was ever an issue for the Illinois GOP when Republican primary voters had a voice. In truth it’s our cockamamie current system, the one forced down our throats by a handful of old party bosses back in 1986 which actually HAS put Democrats on our state central committee. But it’s worse than that. Over a quarter of the 17 current members of the state central committee publicly endorsed career left-wing Democrat Richard Irvin for governor in 2022. National Committeeman Richard Porter did too.)

I washed dishes for the minimum wage in the basement of the S.S. Kresge in Chicago Heights. I was the only White male who ever held that job in that store. With the money that I earned and saved, I bought a new 1966 Pontiac Tempest Sprint in May of 1966 that I used to commute to/from my parents’ home in Crete and classes at UIC.)

— This year’s Israel Independence Day ‘tinged with sorrow,’ say Chicago Jews – NELL SALZMAN (COMMENT: If I was still working for the Democrats who run GAO, I would be in big trouble. The Democrats who run GAO hint/imply/argue/shout at their many Jewish employees that Republicans cause all the problems that Jews have and especially the problems that liberal/moderate Jews have. They stressed that I was conservative, Republican, Protestant, 100% German American, a Crete resident 1948-1972, and a Wheaton resident since 1978. While I worked for GAO for almost 18 years, at least one of my superiors was an anti-conservative Jew and during my last 8 years they all were anti-conservative Jews. They all took many big adverse actions against me. From what I see, if they were still in charge today, they would side with Hamas against Israel.)
