TRIBUNE STAR
— OUTSTANDING: Clark County may opt out of marijuana sales Edgar County, cities of Marshall, Paris await further study – Dave Taylor (DIERSEN: Who is taking the lead to stop the sale of pot a) in your municipality and b) in the unincorporated areas of your county? All of the following should be lining up to speak out against pot at public hearings: Republican activists, Republican candidates, Republican elected officials, Republican party leaders, Republican major donors, Republican political consultants, business leaders, religious leaders, healthcare leaders, education leaders, law enforcement leaders, etc.)
https://www.tribstar.com/news/local_news/clark-county-may-opt-out-of-marijuana-sales/article_e9564493-fae4-5bc5-8280-d9d061ea6b63.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Clark County could become the first local government in Illinois to ban the sale of marijuana under legislation that permits recreational use of cannabis statewide effective Jan. 1 but includes an “opt out” provision for local communities. In mid-May, while the measure was still under debate in Springfield but before it passed, Clark County Board member Jim Bolin raised the issue of a local prohibition and said he would have an appropriate resolution prepared. Bolin was out of the country last week and not available for comment. County Clerk Laura Lee said no resolution is available for review yet but the matter is on the agenda for the board’s next meeting, which will be at 8 a.m. Friday. Any ban imposed by the board would apply only in unincorporated areas of the county, covering about 48 percent of the total population of about 16,000. It would also apply only to the sale of marijuana and not its use.)

CHICAGO SUN-TIMES
— 14 Chicago grassroots leaders win $25,000 grants Two major foundations teamed up to fund “a range of established and emerging leaders who work across boundaries to build a Chicago that is responsive and equitable to all.” – Carlos Ballesteros (DIERSEN: In your municipality, who is being discriminated against and who is responsible for that? According to Democrats, those who are Democrat, Libertarian, Green, RINO, non-Protestant, liberal, moderate, non-patriotic, minority, female, younger, non-rich, non-gun owners, non-German Americans, and/or those whose ancestors have not been in America for a long time are discriminated against by those who are Republican, Trump supporters, Protestant, conservative, patriotic, White, male, older, rich, gun owners, German American, and/or those whose ancestors have been in America for a long time.)
https://chicago.suntimes.com/2019/6/11/18661831/chicago-nonprofits-grants-grassroots-leaders-field-foundation-macarthur-foundation-latino-union
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The grants — part of what the foundations call “The New Leaders of Chicago” program — aim to bridge the gap between Chicago’s moneyed civic elite and grassroots organizers in neighborhoods across the city. “Although more than 60 percent of Chicago residents are from African, Latinx, Asian, Arab, and Native American communities, the city’s civic leadership does not reflect these demographics,” according to a press release. The award “recognizes a range of established and emerging leaders who work across boundaries to build a Chicago that is responsive and equitable to all.” Rodriguez said the money will allow the Latino Union of Chicago to continue organizing immigrant workers and to develop stronger community bonds. “We use the money to build community power,” she said. “When you give people a space that provides you with a work center, child care and translation services, people come and share their stories and connect with one another. We’re here to collaborate with workers to bring these resources to their families, their church, their school — anywhere they go.” The foundations announced the award in February and intend to hand out grants annually. To qualify, nominees must be city residents whose organizations have been awarded grants within the past two years by the Field Foundation or MacArthur’s Chicago Commitment or Jack Fuller Legacy Initiative.)

POLITICO ILLINOIS
— Republican Mike Fricilone, the Will County Board minority leader, has launched his bid for the 3rd Congressional District seat now held by Rep. Dan Lipinski, a Democrat. “A lifelong resident of District 3,” Fricilone says in a release that he understands “the needs and wants of our residents” and will work “to do what is best for our communities.” Fricilone’s day job is as executive director of Midwest Office Interiors in Woodridge. He’s served as a Will County Board member since 2012, serving as chair of the Finance Committee and vice chair of the Capital Committee. His entry in the race must be a welcome relief to Republicans, who in 2018 failed to line up a viable GOP candidate to challenge Lipinski. That led to avowed Nazi and Holocaust denier Arthur Jones to appear on the ballot as a GOP candidate. – SHIA KAPOS and ADRIENNE HURST (DIERSEN: Are you currently represented by a Democrat in the U.S. Congress? If so, who are all the Republicans who have declared their candidacy or are considering running? Your Republican Precinct Committeeman/Captain should be able answer that question.)

May 29 Evening Edition

GOPUSA ILLINOIS
— UPDATE: The proposed Starbucks at the southeast corner of Roosevelt Road and Warrenville Road in my Wheaton precinct is off. I spoke with the property’s owner Ron Dell this afternoon. He said he was going to attend the Wheaton City Counsel Planning Session yesterday evening, but a major delay at O’Hare Airport prevented him from doing that. He said that Starbucks withdrew its proposal 2 weeks ago. Also, Wheaton has posted a video of the session at: https://www.wheaton.il.us/AgendaCenter – Dave Diersen
http://www.gopillinois.com
(MY ARTICLE THIS MORNING: About 120 Wheaton residents attended a 2 1/2 hour Wheaton City Council Planning Session Tuesday evening, May 28, 2019. 28 of those 120 voiced their concerns about Wheaton’s East Roosevelt Road Corridor Market Study/Comprehensive Plan Amendment. 13 of those 28 are registered voters in my precinct. Most of the comments concerned the impact that proposed changes would have on homeowners immediately south and north of Roosevelt Road, traffic congestion, affordable housing, public housing, the proposed Starbucks at the southeast corner of Roosevelt Road and Warrenville Road, flooding, the school crossing at Warrenville Road and Park Avenue, protecting historic buildings on Roosevelt Road, and Wheaton not individually notifying homeowners immediately north and south of Roosevelt Road of the session. My precinct includes the south side of Roosevelt Road between Carlton and Main Streets. For more information on the market study and plan amendment, SEE: https://www.wheaton.il.us/AgendaCenter/ViewFile/Agenda/_05282019-1184. I included a link to the notice of the session in my May 26, 2019 GOPUSA ILLINOIS evening edition email (https://gopillinois.com/uncategorized/may-26-evening-edition-3/). I included link to an online petition against the market study and plan amendment (https://www.thepetitionsite.com/981/324/570/stop-the-roosevelt-road-corridor-redevelopment-plan/) in my May 23, 2019 GOPUSA ILLINOIS evening edition email (https://gopillinois.com/uncategorized/may-23-evening-edition-3/). I included my comment that “A Starbucks is planned for the southeast corner of Roosevelt Road and Warrenville Road in my precinct” in my March 10, 2019 GOPUSA ILLINOIS morning edition email (https://gopillinois.com/uncategorized/march-10-morning-edition-4/). Sadly, many of those in my precinct who oppose the market study and plan amendment automatically assume that I completely support the market study and plan amendment a) because I am a conservative Republican Precinct Committeeman who supports Trump and b) because Ron Dell, the owner of the property at the southeast corner of Roosevelt and Warrenville, has allowed me to display 4X4 “Vote Republican’ signs on his building prior to elections for many years. Consequently, many of those in my precinct who oppose the market study and plan amendment have kept me “out of the loop” to put it politely. My critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes have always discouraged voters in my precinct from reading my GOPUSA ILLINOIS emails. I look forward to reading the minutes of the session and watching the video of the session when they are posted on the city’s website.)

— In marijuana debate, Decatur city officials would wield power in where pot is sold – ANALISA TROFIMUK (DIERSEN: Needless-to-say, if you live in a municipality, please urge the leaders of your municipality, and those who want to be leaders of your municipality, a) to speak out against the marijuana bill in Illinois and b) to commit to voting against the sale of marijuana in your municipality.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: Opt out or be open for business? That’s the question Decatur officials will be facing if Illinois lawmakers take the historic step of legalizing recreational marijuana. The legislation, a key campaign issue for Democrat J.B. Pritzker, is being considered by the Democrat-controlled General Assembly in the sprint to the end of session on May 31. The original legislation allowed expungements for cannabis-related convictions. The exact language is still under debate, along with fine-tuning various parts of the plan to meet concerns from law enforcement, current growers and activists. If the proposal survives the growing debate in Springfield, it will be left to municipal officials whether to allow pot dispensaries within their borders. Opting out means losing revenue generated from sales, as well as permit fees.)

https://canadafreepress.com/article/fear-loathing-intolerance-and-worse
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Throughout history despots had effective ways of reducing dissension in the ranks. Inquisitors burned heretics. Nazis burned books—before taking far more extreme measures. Soviets employed famines, gulags, salt mines and executions. ChiComs and other tyrants starved, jailed and murdered millions. Today’s Green New Dealers and their allies have mapped out their own totalitarian strategies. They proclaim themselves socialists, but their economic policies and tolerance for other viewpoints reflect a different form of government—fascism: A political system in which authoritarian government does not own businesses and industries, but strictly regulates and controls their actions, output and rights—while constraining and suppressing citizens and their thought, speech and access to information. . .Twitter routinely engages in similar cold, calculated censorship of views it opposes. Google helps the Chinese government deny its citizens access to “dangerous ideas”—and says nothing when China sends a million Uighur Muslims to “reeducation camps.” Its hard-left employees ostracize any conservatives they still find in their ranks…and claim helping the US Defense Department with Cloud computing or artificial intelligence surveillance would “violate their principles.” Facebook “shadow banned” an ad promoting a Heartland Institute video that called on millennials to reject socialism and embrace capitalism. Facebook censors told Heartland they “don’t support ads for your business model” (capitalism) and would not reveal “red flags” and trade-secret algorithms they use to “identify violations” of their policies and “help preserve the integrity of our internal processes.” Google suppressed Claremont Institute ads for a talk on multiculturalism and political speech restrictions. Twitter routinely engages in similar cold, calculated censorship of views it opposes. Wikipedia posts distorted or false bios for climate realist experts and organizations—labeling me an anti-environment lobbyist—and then pops up ads soliciting money for its biased “educational” material. Securing corrections is a long, often fruitless process. Even more totalitarian, the Southern Poverty Law Center uses phony “hate speech” claims to defund and “deplatform” conservative groups like David Horowitz’s Freedom Center, by pressuring credit card companies to close off donations to them. State attorneys general and members of Congress want to prosecute and jail people for “denying the reality” of “manmade climate cataclysms.” Worst of all, the callous organizations and policies that Big Tech supports cause millions of deaths every year, by denying impoverished nations and families access to the modern energy, insect control and agricultural technologies that its vocal, racist elements loathe.)

Of course, my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes blacklist me and blacklist my GOPUSA ILLINOIS emails. I should write a book about my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes who falsely claim to be religious, conservative, and/or Republican.)
https://www.wnd.com/2019/05/googles-top-stories-shows-obvious-left-wing-bias-audit-reveals/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Noting that Google’s search algorithm is “perhaps the most powerful mediator of online attention to news,” a team of university scholars conducted an audit that found just 20 news sources account for more than half of article impressions, and most lean left. The top 20 percent of sources — 136 of 678 sampled — accounted for 86 percent of article impressions. And the top three accounted for 23 percent: CNN, the New York Times and the Washington Post, according to Assistant Professor Nicholas Diakopoulos and his team at the Computational Journalism Lab at Northwestern. In an article for Columbia Journalism Review, he wrote that “for all the influence Google has in directing attention, we know painfully little about how its algorithm selects and curates news.” “Which sites does it direct traffic toward? And how does Google’s news curation impact the diversity of information found?” he asked. The audit examined Google Top Stories in terms of ideological lean, based on the self-reported political affiliation of Facebook users sharing content from those sources. The team’s data showed that 62.4 percent of article impressions were from sources rated as left-leaning. Just 11.3 percent were from sources rated as right-leaning. “These statistics underscore the degree of concentration of attention to a relatively narrow slice of news sources,” Diakopoulos wrote. . .‘News blacklist’ In April, a newly obtained document showed Google maintains a “news blacklist” and manipulates its search results manually, contrary to the company’s official denials. WND reported in March a Google manager allegedly responded to an employee who questioned the company’s war on “fake news” by arguing that fake news and “hate speech” had to be stopped, because “that’s how Trump won.” In November, the Daily Caller reported Google employees debated whether to bury the reporting of conservative media outlets in the company’s search function in response to Trump’s election. Employees similarly sought to manipulate search results to combat Trump’s travel ban, the communications showed. In an interview with WND at the time, Robert Epstein – who was famed behavioral psychologist B.F. Skinner’s last Ph.D. student at Harvard – said Google’s effort to defeat Trump confirms his extensive, peer-reviewed research over the past half decade. “Not only does Google have the power to shift votes and opinions on a massive scale, they actually use that power,” Epstein said. During the 2016 election campaign, Epstein concluded that Google heavily biased results in favor of Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton, possibly shifting as many as 3 million votes. A video leaked in September showed Google executives at their first weekly meeting after Trump’s election exhibiting panic and dismay while expressing their determination to thwart the new administration’s agenda as well as the emerging global populist movement.)

— OUTSTANDING: CLARK COUNTY COUNCIL MEMBERS PLAN TO BAN MARIJUANA DISPENSARIES IF STATE PASSES LAW With Governor Pritzker closing in on the legalization of recreational marijuana, one Wabash Valley community has chosen to stand up against the law if it were to pass. – Richard Solomon (DIERSEN: Ten years ago, I easily got the Milton Township Republican Central Committee (MTRCC) to pass a resolution against video gambling.

https://www.wthitv.com/content/news/Clark-County-council-members-plan-to-ban-marijuana-dispensaries-if-state-passes-law–510090151.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: If Illinois Governor J.B. Pritzker legalizes recreational marijuana, Clark County will ban dispensaries in their backyard. It was a unanimous decision made Friday morning by the Clark County Council. They plan to draft a resolution against the law. Some say by keeping the community together and on the same page, they’ve been able to keep illegal things out. That includes drugs and crime. News 10 spoke with members of the community who attended the meeting. They told us that Clark County has a low crime rate. A few spoke out. One man told us that no one in the community is wanting this legalization. “There’s no public outcry to legalize this stuff,” said Warren LeFever, a concerned citizen. This law has not been passed yet. County Council members say they are being proactive rather than reactive.)

https://www.foxnews.com/politics/illinois-republicans-push-to-turn-chicago-into-its-own-state
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The outlet reports that a resolution calling on Congress to declare Chicago America’s 51st state now has eight Republican co-sponsors in the state’s House, as well as growing support from conservative activists. Supporters of the move have noted that Chicago is where much of the state’s political power and money rests, and its politics are different than other more conservative parts of the state. The sponsor of the bill, state Rep. Brad Halbrook, said he supports the split due to differences on issues such as the Second Amendment and abortion. “Our traditional family values seem to be under attack at every angle,” Halbrook said, according to The State Journal-Register. “We are trying to drive the discussion to get people at the table to say these are not our values down here.”)

DAILY HERALD
— DIERSEN HEADLINE: Tollway Executive Director José Alvarez took an $18,996 (8%) pay cut for his new position. In 1980, when I was 31 years old, I took a $19,568 (21%) pay cut in today’s dollars to transfer from IRS to GAO. I had passed the CPA examination on my first attempt in 1979, I had almost completed the requirements for a master’s degree in accounting from DePaul, I had earned an MBA from Loyola in 1976, and I had worked for IRS for almost 9 years, the last 5 1/2 years of which at the GS-12 Step 1-5 levels, currently $82,579-$93,592.)
https://www.dailyherald.com/news/20190517/new-tollway-chief-wants-to-hear-from-stakeholders-on-route-53
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Executive Director José Alvarez, who attended his first board meeting Thursday, will be paid $223,000 annually, 3.7% more than his predecessor Elizabeth Gorman, who received $215,000. “I took a pay cut. That’s how excited I am about the opportunity” to work at the tollway, said Alvarez, former chief operating officer for the Chicago Housing Authority. Alvarez joins a rookie tollway board picked by Gov. J.B. Pritzker, who supported the ouster of the previous slate of directors after a series of Daily Herald reports about tollway spending and patronage hiring at the agency. Alvarez “came in on May 1 and hit the ground running,” Chairman Will Evans said at Thursday’s meeting. “I am committed to investing in our team and building on its strengths,” Alvarez said. He likened the tollway’s situation to the housing authority, which had “five CEOs in five years.” Former tollway Executive Director Greg Bedalov, who was paid $186,000, left in February 2018 and Gorman stayed for 13 months.)

https://www.americanthinker.com/blog/2019/05/pelosis_disgraceful_weaseling_on_meritbased_immigration.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Common sense and public opinion both strongly favor prioritizing immigrants who bring education and skills to the country, so that they can support themselves and provide more tax payments than they consume in the form of welfare and other need-based services. Few questions of public policy receive support in the eighty percent range, yet merit-based immigration actually does receive nearly 80% in reliable polling. . .The entire point of immigration policy is to benefit the citizens of the United States. Forcing citizens to pay for the welfare and government services consumed by poor families entering with children (who will need expensive bilingual schooling), and who will generate few taxes but consume large tax revenues if they bring low education and skill credentials, enacts a penalty on American citizens.)

Neither of my outstanding parents attended college. My father fought type 1 diabetes from age 14, was the first of his ancestors to earn a high school diploma, worked in the office of a nasty chemical plant, almost always worked second jobs to pay the family’s bills, did not buy a new car until he 45 and it was a bottom of the line 2-door Chevy with almost no options, and died suddenly of heart failure in 1969 when he was 47 and I was 21. My mother never attended high school. I bought my first car, a 1958 Chevy BelAir, as soon as turned 16 in 1964.)
