DAILY HERALD
— Palatine Hometown Fest parade draws a crowd, despite the heat – James Kane (DIERSEN: Peter Roskam will be in Wheaton’s Independence Day parade along with Peter Breen, Amy Grant, Jeanne Ives, Paul Hinds, Grant Eckhoff, Tim Elliot, Chris Zaruba, James Mendrick, Jeff MacKay, Karen Wilson, Evelyn Sanguinetti, and the Milton Township Republican Central Committee. DuPage County Republicans are sponsoring the Tunes of Glory Pipes & Drums and the Wheaton North and South high school bands.)
http://www.dailyherald.com/news/20180630/palatine-hometown-fest-parade-draws-a-crowd-despite-the-heat
(FROM THE ARTICLE: While the event led off with a large contingent of police vehicles and officers, followed by fire equipment, much more numerous were the legions of people marching in support of Republican candidates for state, local and national office. . .Gov. Bruce Rauner and attorney general candidate Erika Harrold were among the statewide candidates working the crowd in the sweltering heat, but the largest group of political marchers was backing U.S. Rep. Peter Roskam, who is in a tough reelection fight. The Republicans were followed by a small contingent of marchers supporting Democratic candidates.)

— Inside Facebook and Twitter’s secret meetings with Trump aides and conservative leaders – Tony Romm (DIERSEN: Who are the conservative leaders in Illinois, in your county, in your township/ward, and in your municipality? How often do they publish articles on their websites in support of the traditional family, right to life, immigration, and Second Amendment planks in the Illinois Republican Party platform? Who reads their articles? Who reads their emails?)
http://www.dailyherald.com/business/20180630/inside-facebook-and-twitters-secret-meetings-with-trump-aides-and-conservative-leaders
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Twitter and Facebook are scrambling to assuage conservative leaders who have sounded alarms — and sought to rile voters — with accusations that the country’s tech giants are censoring right-leaning posts, tweets and news. From secret dinners with conservative media elite to private meetings with the Republican National Committee, the new outreach reflects tech giants’ delicate task: satisfying a party in power while defending online platforms against attacks that threaten to undermine the public’s trust in the web. . . . To address the allegations, Dorsey has tried to break bread — quite literally — with his company’s critics. The Twitter executive convened a rare private dinner with Republican leaders and conservative commentators in Washington last week at Cafe Milano, a familiar Georgetown haunt for city power brokers, according to four people who participated in the dinner but requested anonymity because it was off the record. The gathering came weeks after Dorsey invoked conservatives’ ire by tweeting a story suggesting voters should elect Democrats in November — and after he made his first official visit to Congress. Among those attending the June 19 dinner were Mercedes Schlapp, a top communications adviser for Trump; Grover Norquist, the leader of Americans for Tax Reform; Greta Van Susteren, a right-leaning host on MSNBC; and Guy Benson, a Fox News commentator, according to the people in the room. Dorsey hoped to use the dinner as a way to build “trust” among conservatives who have long chastised the company, three of the people said. He defended Twitter against accusations that it targeted right-leaning users unfairly but still admitted that the company has room for improvement, according to the attendees. In response, the Twitter executive heard an earful from conservatives gathered at the table, who scoffed at the fact that Dorsey runs a platform that’s supposed to be neutral even though he’s tweeted about issues like immigration, gay rights and national politics. They also told Dorsey that the tech industry’s efforts to improve diversity — after years of criticism for maintaining a largely white, male workforce — should focus on hiring engineers with more diverse political viewpoints as well, according to those who dined with him in Washington. A spokesman for Twitter declined to comment on the dinner.)

My Democrat superiors, supervisors, coworkers, and subordinates at IRS 1971-1980 scoffed at my earning an MBA from Loyola in 1976, my taking graduate accounting courses at DePaul 1976-1980, and my passing the CPA examination on my first attempt in 1979. My Democrat superiors, supervisors, and coworkers at the Park Forest Post Office 1966-1969 scoffed at my taking college courses at UIC 1966-1968 and at NIU in 1969.

http://www.daily-chronicle.com/2018/06/29/thumbs-up-thumbs-down-community-rallies-behind-family-of-ailing-police-officer/aslzezk/
(FROM THE EDITORIAL: Documents obtained by The Associated Press this week showed that Timothy Mapes, former chief of staff for House Speaker Michael Madigan and state Democratic Party executive director, will receive more than $130,000 after resigning June 6. The money is compensation for 91 unused vacation days and half-pay for 146 sick days, the records showed. Mapes also will receive an annual pension of $134,000, which will increase each year. Mapes, on the job since 1992, earned $208,000 a year until he was forced out in a sexual harassment scandal. It’s another example of the sweet deals insiders secure for themselves at the expense of the public.)

CONSERVATIVE REVIEW
— Do border states have the power to repel illegal entry? – Daniel Horowitz (DIERSEN: Constructively, Mexico and its allies have declared war on America a) by their sending many millions of their citizens into America illegally, b) by their keeping many millions of their citizens in America illegally, and c) by their sending many mountains of illegal drugs into America illegally. By their words and by their actions, each and every one of my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes have made it clear that they side with Mexico and its allies against America.)
https://www.conservativereview.com/news/do-border-states-have-the-power-to-repel-illegal-entry/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: During an era of ever-evolving and newly discovered rights, we forget that sovereignty, both federal and state, is an absolute right that is being ignored in the immigration debate. We have the right, both as residents of states, particularly at the border, and as citizens of this federal republic, to be governed by our consent and to admit people to this country only through the consent of our laws. We’ve already explained that it is a founding principle that a president has the power and the responsibility to repel a large-scale incursion into our country. A state has a similar responsibility when it is experiencing an invasion and the federal government refuses to act. The entire purpose of a federal government What if our own federal government is impotent in protecting our border states from violent drug cartels and the crime, social ills, and public cost drain of mass migration from across the border, while the federal courts are downright preventing the states from protecting themselves? The Constitution is clear as to the responsibilities of the federal government and why we have one in the first place. The federal government exists not to impose more regulations on the people, but to protect their rights and security where states are inherently incapable of doing so effectively — namely, in repelling an invasion. Ironically, it is the one act of war a president can pursue without the consent of Congress, yet the invasion at our border is the only one we refuse to address. Article IV, §4 of the Constitution tasks the federal government with guaranteeing states’ protection against invasion. That is because, in the words of Madison (Federalist #45), the “few and defined” powers of the federal government were to be applied “principally on external objects, as war, peace, negotiation, and foreign commerce.” State governments, on the other hand, deal with “the internal order, improvement, and prosperity of the State.” This is war But what if an outside force buttressed by the most dangerous paramilitary organizations in the world invades a border state and disrupts its internal order, improvement, and prosperity – and the federal government doesn’t stop it? Well, the Constitution is not a suicide pact. Article I, § 10, cl. 3 (the Compact Clause) states: “No State shall, without the Consent of Congress, lay any Duty of Tonnage, keep Troops, or Ships of War in time of Peace, enter into any Agreement or Compact with another State, or with a foreign Power, or engage in War, unless actually invaded, or in such imminent Danger as will not admit of delay.” The Constitution is clear that, all things equal, states shouldn’t engage in warfare with other countries. But all things are not equal in this case, and the Constitution made an exception for those times when states are invaded and in imminent danger. Well, is this really an invasion or imminent danger, you might ask? Andy McCarthy wrote an incisive column yesterday reminding us that we are looking at the immigration issue through the wrong lens. We view it as a legal problem, when in essence it’s a national security problem. Just consider the crime statistics in Texas alone since 2011: According to the DHS and the Texas Department of Public Safety, over 251,000 criminal aliens have been booked into local Texas jails between June 1, 2011, and April 30, 2018. They have been charged for a total of 663,000 offenses, including: . . . And those numbers only include those illegals verified by federal authorities through fingerprints. Roughly 50 percent, and often the most dangerous ones, are never interdicted by federal authorities before they commit murder and mayhem in Texas. Where is this coming from? It’s not a natural disaster. It’s coming from a concerted and organized massed migration completely orchestrated by the drug cartels, often with the help of the Mexican government. Click through to my tweetstorm quoting the Texas DPS explaining the results of the first Central American migration in 2014-2015: . . . As these quotes show, this is not some sort of legal problem with immigration loopholes, but our biggest current threat to our national security and homeland. These are often former Mexican military, in the case of the Zetas cartel, who now hold territory on Texas soil and use military tactics to divert the border patrol with bogus asylum seekers and bring in drugs, crime, and gangs. If this is not an invasion or an imminent danger, I’m not sure what is. I don’t think our Founders could have imagined such a colossal human and monetary toll from massive migration. Even without the military and drug cartel side of this, just the sheer wave of impoverished and often troubled migrants, of which over 90 percent turn out to be invalid asylum claims, should be enough to constitute an invasion. As Andy McCarthy rightfully observes, “If you look at federal asylum law, it addresses the individual migrant, not a systemic incursion. … It does not address what could happen if thousands of migrants simultaneously seek asylum.” States retain their sovereignty over violent incursions Amazingly, the political class questions even the president’s ability to repel the invasion without lawfare, but in reality, even a state, particularly Texas, should be able to do so. I’m not suggesting that the governor direct the Texas Air National Guard to drop bombs on the cartels, but the state would be well within its rights to start returning some of the migrants across the border. Joseph Story in his commentary on the Compact Clause writes that while the prohibition on states making war is obviously necessary, it was “wisely guarded by exceptions sufficient for the safety of the states, and not justly open to the objection of being dangerous to the Union.” Still, a state may be so situated, that it may become indispensable to possess military forces, to resist an expected invasion, or insurrection. The danger may be too imminent for delay; and under such circumstances, a state will have a right to raise troops for its own safety, even without the consent of Congress. Haven’t the border states (the ones that still care) waited long enough with too much delay? Some might suggest that this is not a declared war. But if you look at the original language of Article IV’s guarantee clause protecting states from invasion, Madison originally drafted its language to be read as protecting against “foreign violence.” It’s clear that this was not necessarily referring to formal warfare with a nation-state, but repelling violent incursions from Indian tribes. When the drug cartels use families and children to distract from the core of the invasion, the cartels are no different from Hamas using human shields at the Gaza-Israel border. Israel rightfully treats this as a military issue, and our government should too. If it fails to do so, the drug cartels should be on the receiving end of what happens when you mess with Texas. As Scalia asked: “Are the sovereign States at the mercy of the Federal Executive’s refusal to enforce the Nation’s immigration laws? A good way of answering that question is to ask: Would the States conceivably have entered into the Union if the Constitution itself contained the Court’s holding?”)

Consequently, GAO gave performance bonuses to its employees who were Democrat, minority, female, and/or veteran who made the aforesaid promotions.)
https://hbswk.hbs.edu/item/the-dark-side-of-performance-bonuses
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Companies continually test ways to incent employees to perform more effectively, often turning to worker-motivation tools such as bonuses, “up or out” employee ranking tournaments, and employee of the month rewards. Behavioral scientists warn that these programs, if not constructed carefully, can open a box full of unintended consequences that ultimately harm rather than help the organization. The financial crisis of 2008 was partially fueled by origination bonuses paid to bank loan officers who were incented to approve bad loans. Less well understood, but uncovered in HBS research several years ago, is that those bank bonuses also caused loan officers to perceive reality differently—they believed those loans would succeed. It’s not just financial incentives that are under study. Employers seek to change the behavior of workers in all manner of ways: to make more ethical decisions, to get flu shots, to lose weight, to be wiser about personal financial planning. Behavioral scientists are becoming the new HR superstars in some organizations. Research through the years at Harvard Business School has explored this good intentions-bad outcomes dilemma in many settings, from the glitzy world of Las Vegas to steamy laundry plants in Asia. The results these studies have uncovered are important to understand for org designers, compensation committees, and any function such as sales that depends on incentives to drive performance. Here is a sample of research from HBS into the dark side of employee motivation programs:)

On the last Friday in June, a) I worked for IRS in its Harvey office in 1972, in its 63rd & Halsted office in Chicago in 1973, in its Joliet office in 1974, and in its Loop office in Chicago 1975-1979 and b) I worked for GAO in its Loop office in Chicago 1980-1997. I stored the car in my mother’s garage in Crete 1971-1984 and then at 915 Cove Court in Wheaton since 1984. It has only 5,081 miles on it. I have not started it since November 4, 2009. I plan on getting it back up and running for its 50th model year anniversary in 2022. My owning a Corvette since 1971 is a direct result of my 1969 Dodge Charge SE being stolen while I worked for IRS in its Loop office in 1971.)

CHAMPAIGN/URBANA NEWS GAZETTE
— Sam’s a sham – Editorial
http://www.news-gazette.com/opinion/editorials/2018-06-27/editorial-sams-sham.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The only people happier that McCann to see him enter the contest between Republican incumbent Gov. Bruce Rauner and Democrat J.B. Pritzker are Democrats who hope that McCann, a nominal Republican, will draw enough votes from Rauner to give Pritzker the win. The Democratic Governors Association issued a statement gloatingly predicting that McCann’s candidacy will draw hard-line conservatives from the GOP, further complicating Rauner’s efforts to unify the party behind him. “Just when he needs to turn to the general election, Bruce Rauner will have to keep refighting the battles of the primary,” said DGA Illinois communications director Sam Salustro. McCann, who is running as a representative of a new Conservative Party, indicated that he’s running as a proponent of gun rights and lower taxes. To hear him talk, he’s a proud conservative ideologue. But that’s just rhetoric. McCann is running — and he knows he’s running — to ensure the defeat of Rauner, with whom he has publicly crossed swords, and the election of Pritzker. . .Second, Rauner has alienated conservatives, particularly with his decision to sign legislation providing taxpayer-funded abortions. He barely won the primary against little-known state Rep. Jeanne Ives, who challenged Rauner from the right. Whether Rauner can get those conservatives back remains undetermined. He keeps reminding them that he’s all that stands between them and complete Democratic control of the state. But ideologues of both the right and left can’t bear any candidate who, in their view, double-crosses them on even a single issue. In that sense, McCann’s candidacy is a direct consequence of Gov. Rauner’s own actions, a hurdle that he unintentionally created and one that will be difficult to overcome.)

 

DECATUR DAILY
— Creating a compassionate and workable immigration policy – Franklin Johnson, Falkville (DIERSEN: All my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes want cheap labor.)

(FROM THE LETTER: I don’t know how you can do it. You continue to frame the immigration crisis as a struggle between persecuted families yearning for a better life opposed by hard-hearted white nativists determined to maintain racial purity. Right before your eyes, elements of both political parties are trying to impose slavery — not legal slavery, but economic and political slavery on a whole class of people. They talk humanity, but their purpose is profit and control: 1. Cheap labor from people who won’t or can’t complain; 2. A servant class who can be manipulated because of their lack of education and their dependence. You deny that you are in favor of open borders, yet you oppose any workable effort to stanch the flow: a wall, zero tolerance, moratoriums, and most of all, deportation for those who broke the law getting here as a deterrent. Your idea of immigration reform is amnesty for all who will take a token pledge. You appear not to be concerned about what happens to children who arrive here unescorted. They vanish from their foster homes, and you don’t consider what hells are being imposed on them as they’re scattered through the country. You refuse to say how many new immigrants is enough and you oppose setting standards for those we accept. You quote Emma Lazarus, but you don’t recognize that immigration was once a controlled process. You try to shame us for opposing this travesty while ignoring the results on the Americans impacted. Speak up. Line it out. What is your idea of a compassionate and workable immigration policy without the platitudes, histrionics, and tear-jerking?)

ANSWER: Bill Brady supporters. QUESTION: What did those Bill Brady supporters use to justify their actions? ANSWER: I included a link in a GOPUSA ILLINOIS email to an article by Tom Roeser in the Chicago Sun-Times that called for Bill Brady to withdraw so that the conservative vote would not be split and Jim Oberweis could defeat Judy Baar Topinka in the 2006 Illinois Republican gubernatorial primary. Topinka got 38% of the vote in that primary, Oberweis got 32%, and Brady got 18%. Brady supporters have always a) painted me as being an operative or a dupe for Oberweis and b) blamed me for Brady’s past, present, and future problems.)

But Trump wants to cut that COLA by .5 percent.)

While I attended Crete-Monee High School 1962-1966, I took college preparatory courses notwithstanding the fact that many, if not most, if not virtually everyone at the time viewed me as NOT being “college material.” Neither of my parents had attended college. My father was the first of his ancestors to earn a high school diploma. My mother never attended high school. I spent my junior and senior years and the summer in between washing dishes for the minimum wage in the basement of the S.S. Kresges in Chicago Heights. I just barely made into the upper 20% of my class, my ACT score was only 24, I was draft bait, my eyesight could not be corrected to 20/20, I had partial red/green color blindness, and I had Osgood-Schlatter disease (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Osgood%E2%80%93Schlatter_disease).)
