IBENDAHL ON POLITICS
— Read the Chicago Tribune’s reporting on the 1986 Illinois GOP convention that robbed your vote
https://ibendahlonpolitics.com/2024/05/02/read-the-chicago-tribunes-reporting-on-the-1986-illinois-gop-convention-that-robbed-your-vote/
(FROM THE 1986 ARTICLE: Critics of electing state central committeeman, including State Senate Minority Leader James “Pate” Philip (R., Wood Dale), long have argued that the unpaid office–which in effect is a seat on the party’s board of directors — ought to be taken off the ballot. They successfully supported a plan adopted last year by the state legislature which allowed political parties to choose whether to popularly elect or to have party committeemen pick the state central committee members. . .The opponents charged the decision abolishing the election ballot procedure was aimed at Mary Jo Arndt of Lombard, who is the Republican state central committeeman for the 6th Congressional District. Arndt, the only woman on the 22-member state central committee, embarrassed Philip in 1982 by defeating his choice for the post. “The decision was regrettable,” said Arndt, declining to comment further about the decision. But Philip argued that Arndt has as good a chance of being re-elected as she does now. “We’re talking about three years from now,” he said. “Who can say what will happen between now and then?”)
GOPUSA ILLINOIS
— Since 1986, continuing to stop direct election of Illinois Republican Party (IRP) State Central Committee (SCC) members has been the top priority of the IRP, DuPage County Republican Central Committee (DCRCC), and Milton Township Republican Organization (MTRO). Nevertheless, I have promoted direct election of IRP SCC members big time since I became an elected a Republican Precinct Committeeman in 2000. I should write a book about what I have done to promote direct election and the many big adverse actions that past and present IRP, DCRCC, and MTRO leaders have taken against me because of that. In 2004, they rudely ended my bid to serve as MTRO Treasurer. In 2004 and 2010, they rudely ended my service as MTRO webmaster. In 2021, they rudely ended my service as the Republican fundraiser for Wheaton Independence Day parades and fireworks. Last week, they rudely ended my membership on the IRP State Convention Platform and Resolution Committee. The procedure used to elect IRP SCC members since 1986 has resulted in the IRP becoming ever-increasingly anti-conservative if not anti-Republican. – Dave Diersen

I should write a book about those leaders, their operatives, and their dupes and the many big adverse actions that they have taken against me before, during, and after those meetings since 1999. – Dave Diersen

DUPAGE POLICY JOURNAL
— Rep. Grant Statement on HB2412
https://dupagepolicyjournal.com/stories/658220574-rep-grant-statement-on-hb2412
(FROM THE ARTICLE: State Representative Amy Grant recently made a statement regarding the House Republican Caucus’s decision to place a unified “present” vote on the last-minute Election Omnibus bill (HB2412) brought forward by Illinois Democrats. Grant expressed her concerns about the bill, stating, “I voted present on HB2412 because it is another example of the abuse Illinois politicians bring to our sacred legislative process within the Statehouse. The majority party should be ashamed of filing last-minute legislation that completely lacks transparency and wreaks of self-serving political corruption.” She further emphasized the need for legislative priorities to focus on keeping families healthy, neighborhoods safe, and taxes low, rather than serving partisan political agendas. The statement comes in response to the controversial bill and highlights Grant’s stance on the importance of transparency and accountability in the legislative process.)

— People are simply ignorant of what journalists do, and that they’re their friends and neighbors, according to an Associated Press (AP) article attempting to explain away results of a new survey showing that more than half of Americans greatly trust the election news they’re being fed. – CRAIG BANNISTER
https://mrctv.org/blog/craig-bannister/ap-people-dont-trust-media-because-they-dont-know-what-journalists-do-theyre
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The national poll of adults by the American Press Institute and The Associated Press-NORC Center for Public Affairs Research, conducted March 21-25, reveals that Americans do, indeed, distrust the media’s election coverage. The AP article fails to report that the survey results show that more than four of five – 83% – of adults say they’re at least “somewhat” concerned about the accuracy of what the media’s reporting about the upcoming election. Still, the article does disclose that more than half of adults have even more serious concerns about the integrity of what the media’s telling them: 53% are “extremely“ or “very“ concerned that news organizations will report inaccuracies or misinformation during the election. 52% have little, or no confidence at all, in the information they receive from national news organizations regarding the 2024 elections. 53% have little or no confidence in the information they receive from local news organizations regarding the 2024 elections. Americans also say they’re either extremely or very concerned that news organizations’ election coverage will: “Focus too much on divisions or controversies” (48%), “Report information that has not been confirmed or verified.” (47%), and
“Report factual information that favors one side of an issue.” (44%) In an effort to absolve the media from blame for the results, AP cited the reaction of one of the survey’s sponsors, American Press Institute CEO Michael Bolden. Bolden blamed the Americans’ distrust, not on media bias or inaccuracy, but on the public’s ignorance and politicians: “Years of suspicion about journalists, much of it sown by politicians, is partly responsible, he said. People are also less familiar with how journalism works.” … “There may have been a time when people knew a journalist because one lived on their block…that’s much less likely today.” Americans’ ignorance has caused their “disconnect” from the media, so news outlets need to educate them, especially about “what journalists do” and how they’re actually their “friends and neighbors,” Bolden advised: “There’s a growing disconnect between news organizations and communities that the outlets need to address, by helping to let people know what journalists do and how people reporting news are their friends and neighbors, he said. “Outlets should lean into a convenor role, bringing people together for newsworthy events, he said.” Thus, the people and politicians are really the ones to blame for the public’s growing distrust of the news they’re getting, the AP article suggests.)

— Universities Face an Urgent Question: What Makes a Protest Antisemitic? Pro-Palestinian student activists say their movement is anti-Zionist but not antisemitic. It is not a distinction that everyone accepts. – Katherine Rosman (COMMENT: My Democrat Chicago office GAO superiors, supervisors, coworkers, and subordinates had a hard time demonizing, denigrating, and condemning me as being antisemitic because in 1990, I volunteered to work for the office’s only GS-15 (currently $160,458-$191,900/year) group leader who was Jewish. Further, while I worked for her 1990-1997, I succeeded in getting IIT to appoint her to its board of advisers for its master’s program in financial markets and trading. Many, if not most, if not virtually all of my Democrat Chicago office GAO superiors, supervisors, coworkers, and subordinates were antisemitic and did not want to work with her or for her. But nevertheless, in 1997, she led the successful effort to force me to take GAO’s early retirement “offer.”)
