CHICAGO SUN-TIMES
— DIERSEN HEADLINE: BEYOND DISGUSTING, BEYOND TRAGIC: Ever-increasingly Chicago pot pushers push pot. How soon will virtually everyone who lives in and/or who works in Chicago will be a stoner?

— Illinois marijuana growers will face energy efficiency and reporting rules The state law seeks to avoid blackouts and other grid problems when its marijuana law takes effect Jan. 1. – David Hill (DIERSEN: If you promote pot, you cannot claim to be Green.)
https://energynews.us/2019/09/16/midwest/illinois-marijuana-growers-will-face-energy-efficiency-and-reporting-rules/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Marijuana can be an energy intensive crop. The new electricity load to power lighting, heating and ventilation for indoor grow facilities has strained the grid and even caused blackouts in other places after it was legalized. The Illinois law seeks to avoid those problems by mandating efficiency standards and capping the amount of power used per square foot. Clean energy advocates said they were hopeful the law would lead other states to follow suit, though more work is needed between utilities and growers to manage power demand.)

CLTV
— Yarbrough Pushes Back on Shakman, Calls Accusations “Disingenuous” – JORDAN MUCK (DIERSEN: Far too many of the operatives and the dupes who work for my critics/opponents a) promote patronage, political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, age discrimination, and retaliation and b) paint themselves as working for those who dominate the Milton Township Republican Central Committee, DuPage County Republican Central Committee, and the Illinois Republican Party.)

TONI PRECKWINKLE
— Advancing Racial Equity in Cook County: Closing the gap through policy and practice (DIERSEN: Democrats use Affirmative Action, Diversity, Inclusion, up-or-out, budget cuts, etc. to get rid of Republicans. Preckwinkle would be proud of the many adverse actions that my Democrat superiors in the federal government took to get rid of their employees who were Republican, White, male, and/or non-veteran who did not make GS-13 (currently $98,198) by age 25, GS-14 (currently $116,040) by age 30, GS-15 (currently $136,495) by age 35, and Senior Executive Service (currently $165,500) by age 40.)
https://medium.com/@tonipreckwinkle_95808/advancing-racial-equity-in-cook-county-closing-the-gap-through-policy-and-practice-9b28a5bd1b38
(FROM THE STATEMENT: In America, the playing field has never — been — level. If you are a woman, if you are Black, if you are Latinx, if you have a disability, if you speak another language, if you were born in another country — in other words, if you are most of the population of Cook County — the playing field has never been level. So instead of using the principle of equality, government must instead focus on equity.)

POLITICO ILLINOIS
— ERIKA HAROLD, the former GOP attorney general candidate, is not going to run for Rep. John Shimkus’ seat next year. A source close to Harold told Playbook: “She’s not running. It’s not the right time for Erika.” Harold was seen as a shoo-in for the 54th congressional district, having secured 44 percent of the vote in that district when she ran against Attorney General Kwame Raoul last year. Shimkus surprised Republicans when he announced a few weeks ago that he wouldn’t seek re-election. There was an initial scramble for the seat, but now it looks like only state Sen. Jason Plummer (54th) is still considering a run. No word yet if/when he’ll jump in. – Shia Kapos

— Todd Ricketts, the Cubs co-owner and current Republican National Committee finance chairman, was at Cafe Milano in Washington, D.C., on Monday celebrating his 50th birthday — the big day is actually Sept. 23. In the crowd: Ricketts’ brothers, Nebraska Gov. Pete Ricketts, and Cubs Chairman Tom Ricketts; attorney and RNC National Committeeman Richard Porter; Illinois political fundraiser Barrett Kedzior Zolnierowicz; former U.S. House Speaker Paul Ryan; presidential adviser Kellyanne Conway; U.S. Sens. Rick Scott (Fla.), Cory Gardner (Colo.) and — even — Dick Durbin (Cubs fans don’t see party). Fox News’ Bret Baier gave a toast. The big awe moment was watching Todd Ricketts and his wife, Sylvie, cut a rug. – Shia Kapos

EDITOR & PUBLISHER
— Google, Facebook Should Pay For News They Use – Editorial (DIERSEN: He who pays the piper calls the tunes. No one pays me for what I do as your GOPUSA Illinois Editor. I do not want anyone to pay me because I do not want anyone to call my tunes. I do not put GOPUSA ILLINOIS emails together and send them out to “make money.” I put the emails together and send them out to promote religious, conservative, and Republican principles. Those who reject religious, conservative, and/or Republican principles work against me big time.) 
https://www.editorandpublisher.com/columns/shoptalk-google-facebook-should-pay-for-news-they-use/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The good news is that somebody is once again making money from journalism. The bad news is that it’s not those who are doing the actual work of producing journalism; instead, it’s Google and Facebook, which have figured out how to “monetize” the publication of news. A recent report in a study for the News Media Alliance holds that Google made $4.7 billion from the work of news publishers in 2018 through advertising linked to its search engine results and its Google News page. Journalists ought to see some of that revenue, argues David Chavern, the president and chief executive of the alliance, which represents 2,000 U.S. newspapers. The tech companies “make money off the arrangement,” Chavern said in the New York Times, “and there needs to be a better outcome for news publishers.”)

I would focus on a) those who have severe financial, physical, and/or mental health problems, b) those who serve as operatives or as dupes for my critics/opponents, and c) those who try to destroy those who they cannot manipulate or dominate.)
