— Democrats aim to make Greene their foil ahead of midterms – TAL AXELROD (DIERSEN: I should write a book about those who have made me their foil. I would focus on those who have lots of religious, government, political, government, and or financial clout in Wheaton’s West District, Wheaton, Milton Township, DuPage County’s 4th District, DuPage County, and Illinois. I would focus on those who lead/led the Milton Township Republican Organization, DuPage County Republican Central Committee, Illinois Republican Party, and Wheaton Chamber of Commerce. I would focus on unsuccessful Republican candidates on ballots in my precinct, their major donors, their political consultants, their fundraisers, their campaign managers, their campaign staff members, and their campaign volunteers. I would focus on those who I have sued.)
