— Communications problem hampers bipartisanship attempt – Bernard Schoenburg https://www.sj-r.com/opinion/20190814/bernard-schoenburg-communications-problem-hampers-bipartisanship-attempt (FROM THE ARTICLE:
Traditionally, the two political days at the State Fair are reserved for
parties to enthuse the base with the message. Certainly, on Wednesday, when
U.S. House Speaker NANCY PELOSI spoke at the Crowne Plaza to the Illinois Democratic
County Chairs’ Association brunch, it fit that script. And Thursday is GOP Day
at the fair. But freshman Democratic Gov. J.B. PRITZKER framed the picnic he
hosted (and paid for personally) at the Director’s Lawn at the State Fair as a
bipartisan event, and said he invited all lawmakers, including Republicans.
Well, House GOP Leader JIM DURKIN, R-Western Springs, said he never got an
invitation, and ELENI DEMERTZIS, his spokeswoman, said some others in the
caucus she checked with didn’t receive invitations either. . .Durkin said had
he received the invitation, he probably would have attended.)

GOPUSA ILLINOIS
— Past and present candidates and elected officials who spoke at the Milton
Township Republican Central Committee (MTRCC) meeting Wednesday evening, August
14, 2019, at the Holiday Inn in Carol Stream included Almiron, Corrigan,
Diersen, Eckhoff, Fitch, Grant, Heidorn, Holder, Ives, Kachiroubas, Keller,
Kinzler, Krzyzewski, Larsen, McCluskey, McGowen, Monino, Seppelfrick, Walsh,
and Whelan. Meeting attendees included Baker, Bohn, Carlson, Caruso, Cooper,
Crane, Davis, Falbo, Fitzpatrick, Grant, Henry, Holan, A & R. Jorgensen,
Kachiroubas, Krzyzewski, Larsen, LeVan, Lofgren, Lollino, McCarthy, McNeily,
Muehlfelt, Nathwani, Rash, Ryan, Shaw, Smith, Tatro, Veenstra, and Zaruba.
Judge McCluskey announced his candidacy for the upcoming Judge George J.
Bakalis vacancy. Larsen reported on what DuPage County is doing concerning the
pot issue. Fitch reported on what Wheaton is doing concerning the West District
City Council vacancy and the pot issue. Sadly, its seems like the majority of
Republican Precinct Committeemen in Wheaton’s West District are not interested
in getting together and gathering information on the West District candidates,
hosting a candidate forum, or recommending any of the 10 candidates who have
applied to be appointed to fill the vacancy. Sadly, it seems like the majority
of Milton Township Republican Precinct Committeemen are not interested in
getting together and urging DuPage County, Wheaton, or Glen Ellyn to ban the
sale of pot. Sadly, it seems like the majority of Milton Township Republican
Precinct Committeemen side with my critics/opponents, their operatives, and
their dupes. They blame me for their problems, for your problems, for my problems,
and for everyone’s problems. They support those who slander and threaten me at
MTRCC meetings. They support those who focus on a) stopping me from putting
GOPUSA ILLINOIS emails together and sending them out and b) stopping everyone
from reading those emails. They support those who discourage Republican
candidates, elected officials, and organizations from helping sponsor Wheaton’s
Independence Day fireworks and parades. The focus on turning everyone against
me, including those who run the Holiday Inn in Carol Stream and those who ran
the Wheaton Bowl. They work harder against me and harder against other
conservatives than they have ever worked against any Democrat. – Dave Diersen http://www.gopillinois.com

background checks and interviews) the 10 candidates to be appointed to fill the
Wheaton City Council West District vacancy? Will the aforesaid newspapers a)
conduct candidate forums and/or b) endorse one of those 10 candidates? What
endorsement criteria will they use?) https://www.news-press.com/story/opinion/2018/06/22/news-press-vet-candidates-dissect-issues-but-stop-endorsing/722444002/ (FROM THE ARTICLE: Two
weeks ago, the News-Press asked the community to weigh in on our process of
endorsing political candidates. The question was: To endorse or not to endorse?
The feedback was voluminous and passionate. Thirty-eight people wrote to say we
should stop endorsing candidates in various city, county, state and federal
races and 35 said we should continue. A common theme in most of the responses
was an appreciation for our diligence in vetting the candidates through
questionnaires, background checks and interviews. They wanted the information
to help them decide on whom should get their vote. We agree the most important
part of what we do — and we do it better than most — is going in-depth with the
candidates on the issues. Getting specific answers to and solutions for some of
our most critical issues, like water quality and the environment, affordable
and attainable housing, the mental health and opioid crisis, how to improve
education and build new schools, mean the most to people. That same information
also was vital for us in endorsing candidates.)

Than Baby Boomers Gen Z lies seven times more often. – Minda Zetlin https://www.inc.com/minda-zetlin/millennials-gen-z-lie-on-resumes-more-than-baby-boomers.html (FROM THE ARTICLE: But
apparently, the younger you are, the likelier you are to be untruthful, at
least when applying for a job. Eleven percent of Millennials said they had lied
on their résumés, and 14 percent of Gen Z respondents said they’d done it. Only
2 percent of Baby Boomers said they’d ever lied on a résumé. And they don’t
feel bad about it. While 54 percent of men and 42 percent of women who lied in
all age groups felt guilty about doing so, only 27 percent of Millennials did.

aware that some read GOPUSA ILLINOIS emails to get information to help them
dismiss, discredit, belittle, badmouth, intimidate, insult, demonize,
denigrate, and/or condemn me. I should write a book those who read GOPUSA

license are at least 21 years old.) https://www.standardmedia.co.ke/lifestyle/article/2001334657/do-you-need-a-higher-degree-or-is-work-experience-sufficient (FROM THE ARTICLE:
Employers are lured by your work experience, but you must have the relevant
experience to appeal to them more. Work experience should highly relate with
the job that you are looking for. Your experience has to show some aspect of
growth. You are more marketable when there are quantifiable results from the
time and effort you put into work.)

fail/refuse to return my phone calls. I would focus on those who dismiss me,
discredit me, belittle me, badmouth me, intimidate me, insult me, demonize me,
denigrate me, and/or condemn me. I would focus on those who ascribe evil motive
and/or bad judgment to everything that I do or that I do not do. I would focus
on those who blame me for their problems, for your problems, for my problems,
and for everyone’s problems. I would focus on those who blame me for all the
losses that Republicans have suffered in Illinois since 2000. I would focus on
those who forced me to sue them. I would focus on those who focus on destroying
those like me who they cannot manipulate/dominate. I would focus on those who
claim to be religious, conservative, and/or Republican, but who do not talk

veterans for the jobs that I had. They viewed the jobs that I had as being bad

Railroad and subsequent texts to the governor’s staff had anything to do with
the abrupt cancellation of the band’s performance at the DuQuoin State Fair.
Rich Miller writes the Capitol Fax blog, a subscription-based newsletter and
website. In fiscal year 2018, Miller received $35,736 from state government. He
received $34,791 in fiscal year 2019. So far for the fiscal year that started
July 1, he’s received $1,500, according to the latest public records. Most of
the payments to Miller were line items of $500 from various state agencies
throughout the year, including the General Assembly. Miller sells both
subscriptions to and advertisements on Capitol Fax. The Center Square obtained
text messages and emails to and from Gov. J.B. Pritzker’s office through the
Freedom of Information Act. Those messages show on June 17, the same day Miller
posted a blog questioning the band’s scheduled performance, Miller sent a text
to the governor’s deputy press secretary, Emily Bittner.)

KRCU
— Cape Girardeau City Council Chooses From Ward 3 Hopefuls Aiming To Fill Seat
Vacancy – CLAYTON HESTER (DIERSEN: Are you a Wheaton resident? Do you live in
Wheaton’s West District? What do you know about the ten who have filed to be
appointed to fill Wheaton’s West District City Council vacancy?) https://www.krcu.org/post/cape-girardeau-city-council-chooses-ward-3-hopefuls-aiming-fill-seat-vacancy#stream/0 (FROM THE ARTICLE: Before
a meeting on Monday, ten Cape Girardeau residents were angling to fill a ward 3
vacancy on the city council. That number has now been whittled down to three
applicants: Tom Roy, Nate Thomas, and Christina Mershon. Roy, a medical
practice manager at SoutheastHEALTH, is an alumni of Southeast Missouri State
University, and has called Cape Girardeau home for the last 19 years. “[I]
don’t have any special interests, don’t have any special agendas,” he said.
“Just hoping the skills I’ve accumulated over the last 30 years can help.” He
also described himself as a “big proponent of the parks,” and voiced interest
in tightening up rules for landlords – particularly those who rent to college
students. Thomas, a physical therapist at St. Francis Hospital, said although
he isn’t a Cape Girardeau native, he and his family are now “deeply rooted and
integrated” in the city. “Perhaps I would say my strongest attribute I would
bring the council is my background in government relations,” Thomas said. Not
only has he worked with Congress and multiple committees, but he’s also worked
with various government agencies. The third candidate, Christina Mershon, said
she offers a “diverse” skill set developed in her position as director of
continuing education at Southeast Missouri State University. Mershon said that,
while improvements are being made on Town Plaza and other select areas across
town, there are still “major problems that need to be recognized.” “Last week,
guys, we had a shooting there. It kind of concerns me that no one is mentioning
violence and some of the systemic problems. That’s heavy on my brain and my
heart,” she said. “Because while we go forward and we’re really making strides,
we’ve got to figure out what’s going on in the underpinning to address that stuff.”
She likened the potential to run to a “dating situation” – she might not run
for the ward seat after her time as replacement would expire. She wants to see
how well the position works for her. Ward 3 was made available when the former
representative Victor Gunn resigned on July 8th.)

— Ten have applied to be appointed to fill Wheaton’s West District City
Council vacancy. If your representative on your city council resigned, what
would you want the process to fill the vacancy to include? I want the city to
issue a press release each time it receives an application to fill a vacancy.
Those press releases should not only disclose the applicant’s name, but the
completed application, resume, and all the documents that were submitted.
Residents should have the right to know not only the applicants’ names, but a)
how long they have lived in the city and in the district, b) why they want to
be appointed to fill the vacancy, c) what they believe the most important
issues are that the city needs to address, d) what their opinion is on how
those issues could be addressed, e) what their work experience is, f) what their
education is, g) what professional certifications and licenses are, and h) what
experience do they have carrying out typical city council functions: Review and
approve the annual budget; Establish long- and short-term objectives and
priorities; Oversee performance of the local public employees; Oversee
effectiveness of programs; Establish tax rates; Enter into legal contracts;
Borrow funds; Pass ordinances and resolutions; Modify the city’s charter;
Regulate land use through zoning laws; Regulate business activity through
licensing and regulations; Regulate public health and safety; Exercise the
power of eminent domain; Communicate policies and programs to residents;
Respond to constituent needs and complaints; and Represent the community to
other levels of government. (SEE: https://www.nlc.org/city-councils)

committee starts discussion on allowing or banning recreational pot sales in

Committee members will continue discussion of the issue on Aug. 20 and could
bring a recommendation to the full county board as early as the board’s Sept.
10 meeting. Currently, DuPage County zoning follows state law for medical
marijuana facilities. Under those rules, cannabis cultivation centers must be
located at least 2,500 feet from schools, group homes and residential areas and
dispensaries cannot be closer than 1,000 feet to the same sites. If the same
standards were used, there likely would be no place to locate a dispensary or
cultivation center in any area under the county’s jurisdiction, said Sam
Tornatore, who heads the board’s development committee. “If we decided to
mirror current zoning, then essentially it’s game over,” said Tornatore, a
Roselle Republican. He and others noted the county would have to adopt less
restrictive rules than those for medical marijuana in order to allow
dispensaries or cultivation centers in unincorporated areas. State law leaves
it to municipalities and counties to decide if they want to put any
restrictions in place for recreational marijuana businesses, officials said.
“The notion of granting easier access to recreational marijuana than to medical
marijuana makes no sense,” said board member Robert Larsen, a Wheaton
Republican.)

race for City Council president pitted two sitting members of the council

raise substantial campaign funds. Beggs, an attorney with a background in
social justice who has represented the South Hill on the council since 2016,
raced to an early lead with 10,718 votes. Wendle finished the night in second
place with 9,349 votes. Mike Fagan, who has earned a reputation as the
council’s most conservative member, sought a promotion after two terms
representing the northeast district but trailed Beggs and Wendle with 8,093.
More ballots will be counted on Wednesday. The race also featured Phillip
Tyler, former president of the Spokane chapter of the NAACP, who has been

fourth. Beggs said he was confident heading into Tuesday’s election that he
