— Trump Backs Covington Student in WashPost Lawsuit – Todd Beamon (DIERSEN: Of
course, my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes stress those
politicians in Wheaton, Milton Township, DuPage County, and Illinois who backed
GAO in Diersen v. GAO. Those politicians a) reject the equal opportunity
(no race or gender based preference giving) plank in the Republican Party
platform, b) promote patronage, c) promote political affiliation
discrimination, d) promote reverse discrimination, e) promote age
discrimination, and f) promote retaliation. I should write a book about the
aforesaid politicians.)

— In Love With Donald: What Trump Can Teach Us About Belonging – Benjamin
Vaughan (DIERSEN: What discourages you from “belonging” to a

organization? For me, it is their failure/refusal to defend/advance the
Illinois Republican Party platform and the Republican Party platform, and
especially the traditional family, right to life, immigration, Second Amendment,
illegal drugs, and equal opportunity (no race or gender based preference
giving) planks in those platforms.)
