Response: By: Diane Benjamin Why is Corey make himself prime for a story? Yes, school shooting are traumatic horrible events that should never happen. They are worse when the shooter is known to law enforcement, the student’s parents, and the school and all of them do nothing to protect vulnerable kids! That is the case […]
By: Diane Benjamin How much are you paying Unit 5 in property taxes? See this story from November of 2023. It shows last year Unit 5 had 837 students in English as a second language classes. Now Unit 5 has 1100: https://www.unit5.org/departments/english-learner-programs . Enrollment at Unit 5 had been decreasing for years. Since Illinois is […]
By: Diane Benjamin Keep in mind GAZA was free until they attacked Israel on October 7, 2023. Palestinians elected Hamas and haven’t had elections again since that happened in 2006. Hamas then murdered opposition to keep power. Nice folks. I wasn’t going to do a story on just Krystle Able, but when Corey Beirne chimed […]
By: Diane Benjamin In case you missed this story: https://blnnews.com/2024/04/12/no-one-was-denied-the-right-to-vote/ Piling on by the far left because laws are immaterial, Corey Beirne had to add his 1 cent brain: DEI is Marxist ideology that eliminates exceptionalism. I hope Corey gets a DEI doctor some day. Microaggressions are merely attempts at limiting speech for fear somebody […]
By: Diane Benjamin From 2009-2010 Democrats controlled all 3 branches of government. Joe Biden had the same thing in 2021 when the Senate was 50-50 giving Kamala Harris the tie breaking vote. They could have legalized illegal immigrants and DACA and recipients all by themselves, they didn’t even try. If they care so much about “migrants” why didn’t they? […]
By: Diane Benjamin Evidently they have open door policies in their homes because they don’t want to protect McLean County from Biden’s invasion of the country – estimated now at 8 million people who walked across the border. These people know nothing about local and national laws, many expect to be taken care of by taxpayers. See Chicago […]

By: Diane Benjamin It was the Democrats who wanted to change the agreement made when a 10-10 Board was elected and a Republican was picked as chair. Last night changed nothing. In October the last empty seat will be filled restoring the 10-10 board. A Republican will still be in charge, what the Republicans did […]
By: Diane Benjamin Just two examples are below. I’m sure there are many more. Why would the the Superintendent and a teacher need to include their preferred pronouns on public documents unless Unit 5 students are allowed to “pick” theirs. Is this done behind the parents backs? Are students told they can pick their gender? […]
By: Diane Benjamin The ethics ordinance Unit 5 has posted on their website is REQUIRED by State law. It’s there to pretend legislators want to clean up corruption in Illinois. Every level of government is required to have one that meets certain standards. Of course nobody is in charge of enforcing it. John Adams said: […]
By: Diane Benjamin Not to one employee who while at events the last two nights, being compensated as part of his job, campaigned FOR the referendum. I’ve got video. What is Unit 5 going to do to Corey Beirne for violations? Does Unit 5 have ethics? https://www.unit5.org/Page/297
By: Diane Benjamin Corey Beirne teaches more than music to 600 Unit 5 students. He is also teaching transgender and LBGT+ ideology to ELEMENTARY STUDENTS. Beirne gave this speech in June of 2021 to the Unit 5 School Board, they must approve since he’s still there. (Unit 5 wants more money? For this?) Beirne mentions […]

He is running for the McLean County Board and WGLT just happened to pick him for an interview him from all the teachers in the Unit 5 School District. Beirne proves he isn’t qualified to hold an elected office […]
By: Diane Benjamin Please read to the BOTTOM! County Board candidates who filed for office are listed below by District. Since redistricting you get to vote for two this year, a drawing will be held after the election to see who gets a 2 year term and who gets 4 years. District 2 will have […]
By: Diane Benjamin This Unit 5 teacher did: He supposedly teaches music. I wonder how Critical Race Theory fits into music? The story: https://www.dailywire.com/news/here-are-the-thousands-of-teachers-who-say-theyre-willing-to-violate-law-to-keep-pushing-crt Here Are The Thousands Of Teachers Who Say They’re Willing To Violate Law To Keep Pushing CRT Excerpts: Thousands of teachers have pledged to continue teaching based on critical race theory even […]
