From what I see, ever-increasingly, a) Libertarians exploit the Republican Party’s “big tent” philosophy, b) Libertarians falsely claim to be conservative and/or Republican, c) Libertarian plants gain leadership positions in the Republican Party, and d) those Libertarian plants use those leadership positions to get rid of conservatives and Republicans like me.

(FROM THE EDITORIAL: Truth be told, press freedom in America ranks below that of almost every other country in the West. Reporters Without Borders, an international organization that promotes freedom of expression around the globe, released its 2019 World Press Freedom Index Thursday, and the results are troubling worldwide, disturbing in the U.S. Worldwide, “hatred of journalists has degenerated into violence, contributing to an increase in fear,” the organization said in a summary of the report. “The number of countries regarded as safe, where journalists can work in complete security, continues to decline while authoritarian regimes continue to tighten their grip on the media.”)

Overwhelming, my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes have spent far more of their income on immediate pleasures than I have. Instead of immediate pleasures, I spent money on cars, tuition and books, and real estate. Instead of spending money on immediate pleasures, I saved money for my retirement.)

KANKAKEE DAILY JOURNAL
— Liberal hypocrisy about sanctuary cities – Star Parker (DIERSEN: If Starbucks wanted to build a coffee shop in your precinct, how would the following voters in your precinct react: those who are a) rich, b) middle class, c) poor, d) Democrats, e) Libertarians, f) Greens, g) RINOs, and h) Republicans?)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: According to a recent article in the Manhattan Institute’s City Journal, Seattle spends more than $1 billion annually struggling with its homeless problem, “nearly $100,000 for every homeless man, woman and child in King County.” Yet, the article continues, “the crisis seems only to have deepened, with more addiction, more crime and more tent encampments in residential neighborhoods. By any measure, the city’s efforts are not working.” The author, Christopher Rufo, a fellow at the Seattle-based Center for Wealth, Poverty & Morality at the Discovery Institute, surveys what he calls the “ideological power centers” driving the discussions in Seattle about how to deal with their homeless. Not surprisingly, they are all on the left, and, of course, one socialist city councilwoman explains it as “how deeply dysfunctional capitalism is.” Seattle-based corporations, such as Amazon, Microsoft, Starbucks and Boeing, in her analysis, “drive up housing prices and push the working class toward poverty and despair — and, too often, onto the streets.” The irony of this distorted analysis lies in tying it to the immigration crisis. Those massing on our southern border, trying to gain entry to our country, are pouring out from dysfunctional socialist Central American countries such as Honduras, Guatemala and Nicaragua. Capitalism and economic freedom are the answer, not the problem.)

— CENSORED! HOW ONLINE MEDIA COMPANIES ARE SUPPRESSING FREE SPEECH – Media Research Center
https://www.heartland.org/publications-resources/publications/censored-how-online-media-companies-are-suppressing-free-speech
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Top tech firms like Google, YouTube and Twitter partner with leftist groups attempting to censor conservatives. Like it or not, social media is the communication form of the future — not just in the U.S., but worldwide. Just Facebook and Twitter combined reach 1.8 billion people. More than two-thirds of all Americans (68 percent) use Facebook. YouTube is pushing out TV as the most popular place to watch video. Google is the No. 1 search engine in both the U.S. and the world. War is being declared on the conservative movement in this space and conservatives are losing — badly. If the right is silenced, billions of people will be cut off from conservative ideas and conservative media. It’s the new battleground of media bias. But it’s worse. That bias is not a war of ideas. It’s a war against ideas. It’s a clear effort to censor the conservative worldview from the public conversation. The Media Research Center has undertaken an extensive study of the problem at major tech companies — Twitter, Facebook, Google and YouTube — and the results are far more troubling than most conservatives realize. Here are some of the key findings:)

— U.S. needs more brainiac immigrants, so let’s boost H1B visas – Stephen Moore (DIERSEN: From what I see, ever-increasingly, employers prefer hiring, retaining, and promoting citizens of foreign countries rather than citizens of America. The federal government cannot hire citizens of foreign countries. That helped me, a citizen of America since 1948, get hired by a) the Post Office in 1966, b) IRS in 1971, and c) GAO in 1980.)

QUARTZ
— The new digital divide is between people who opt out of algorithms and people who don’t – Anjana Susarla (DIERSEN: Your GOPUSA Illinois Editor is NOT a Democrat or Democrat plant algorithm, Libertarian or Libertarian plant algorithm, Green or Green plant algorithm, or RINO algorithm. Consequently, GOPUSA ILLINOIS emails contain links to articles that promote the traditional family, right to life, immigration, Second Amendment, illegal drugs, and equal opportunity (no race or gender based preference giving) planks in the Illinois Republican Party platform and in the Republican Party platform. Democrats and Democrat plants, Libertarians and Libertarian plants, Greens and Green plants, and RINOs in Wheaton, in Glen Ellyn, in Milton Township, in DuPage County, and in Illinois want to a) abolish the aforesaid planks and b) abolish me and my GOPUSA ILLINOIS emails.)
https://qz.com/1597901/how-people-feel-about-algorithms-has-become-the-new-digital-divide/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Every aspect of life can be guided by artificial intelligence algorithms—from choosing what route to take for your morning commute, to deciding whom to take on a date, to complex legal and judicial matters such as predictive policing. Big tech companies like Google and Facebook use AI to obtain insights on their gargantuan trove of detailed customer data. This allows them to monetize users’ collective preferences through practices such as micro-targeting, a strategy used by advertisers to narrowly target specific sets of users. In parallel, many people now trust platforms and algorithms more than their own governments and civic society. An October 2018 study suggested that people demonstrate “algorithm appreciation,” to the extent that they would rely on advice more when they think it is from an algorithm than from a human. In the past, technology experts have worried about a “digital divide” between those who could access computers and the internet and those who could not. Households with less access to digital technologies are at a disadvantage in their ability to earn money and accumulate skills. But, as digital devices proliferate, the divide is no longer just about access. How do people deal with information overload and the plethora of algorithmic decisions that permeate every aspect of their lives? The savvier users are navigating away from devices and becoming aware of how algorithms affect their lives. Meanwhile, consumers who have less information are relying even more on algorithms to guide their decisions.)

While I worked for GAO 1980-1997, the last 11 years of which at GS-13 Step 1-10 levels, currently $98,198-$127,654, I increasingly worked as a referencer, that is, as a fact checker.

(FROM THE ARTICLE: It appears that Haberman is convinced the White House is subtly suggesting that the White House is simply overrun with Nazis, and that “Edelweiss” is somehow identified with Nazi Germany. What a connection!)

— Millennials still lean on parents for money – Janna Herron (DIERSEN: When did you stop leaning your parents for money? Because my outstanding parents never had much money, I never expected them to, and they did not, give me any money for cars, tuition, books, or room and board at NIU. They did provide me with room and board while attended UIC 1966-1968, weekends during my first semester at NIU in 1969, and the summer of 1969. I paid for a new 1968 Oldsmobile 442 and a new 1969 Dodge Charger SE, tuition, books, and room and board at NIU with money that I earned working for the Park Forest Post Office 1966-1969. My father died suddenly in October of 1969 and my mother had never worked outside of our home in Crete. After I graduated from NIU in August of 1970, I helped support my mother and brother until September of 1972 with money that I earned working for the Firestone Store in Chicago Heights and for IRS in Chicago and Harvey.)

DAILY HERALD
— New CEO slated for tollway Jose R. Alvarez comes from Chicago Housing Authority – Marni Pyke (DIERSEN: What does Alvarez know about tollways? GAO audits IRS. When I transferred from IRS to GAO in 1980, I brought with me almost 9 years of IRS Collection Division experience, the last 5 1/2 years of which at the GS-12 Step 1-5 levels, currently $82,579-$93,592/year. But my Democrat GAO superiors wasted that experience a) by never assigning me to audits of IRS’s Collection Division and b) by assigning me to audits of IRS for only 3 (1986-1988) of the almost 18 years that I worked for GAO. During those almost 18 years, none of those who were assigned to audits had worked for IRS. Overwhelmingly, those assigned to audits of IRS were Democrat, minority, female, younger, and/or veteran. Many, if not most of them did not want the assignments.)

https://www.politico.com/newsletters/illinois-playbook/2019/04/18/casten-on-aocs-green-deal-preckwinkle-reflects-population-dropping-again-426113
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Casten, who campaigned on a “fix climate change” platform, just wishes it wasn’t sucking the air out of all the other green legislation. “The Green New Deal has made it very hard to advance a different idea about how to move forward [on climate change] without being seen as antagonistic,” Casten said during an interview with POLITICO. Casten has bills in various forms on issues he cares about, and he’s been asked by other lawmakers to join on their climate-focused bills, too. But they’re all effectively on hold, he says, while Ocasio-Cortez’s plan gets the headlines. The Green New Deal calls for the nation to reduce its fossil fuel use to zero within 10 years. Casten is back in Illinois this week after his first three months in Congress. We met over coffee at Starbucks in Carpentersville. Here are seven takeaways from the interview: On what works/doesn’t work in AOC’s resolution: “I agree with the urgency of it. That part is awesome. It’s just more idealistic than practical. To do climate policy right, you have to understand how our current energy structure works.” Casten points to questions about whether fertilizer can be made without natural gas or if aviation fuels can replace existing high-energy, low-density petroleum-based fuels. They’re both areas that are difficult to de-carbonize based on current technologies. His Capitol Hill mentors: U.S. Rep. Bill Foster, who serves Illinois’ 11th District. The two representatives share a passion for science and business. Also New Hampshire Rep. Annie Kuster and Maryland Rep. Jamie Raskin. “Every time I talk to [Raskin] I realize he’s super smart and I leave thinking I’m super smart,” says Casten.)

DAILY SIGNAL
— The Natural Limits of Identity Politics – Victor Davis Hanson (DIERSEN: Question: When will illegal immigration to America end? ANSWER: When Spanish is America’s official language. When everyone in America speaks, reads, and writes Spanish. When America looks like Mexico. When there are few, if any Whites left in America. When Mexico and the other Spanish-speaking countries officially declare victory over America.)
https://www.dailysignal.com/2019/04/18/the-natural-limits-of-identity-politics/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Economist Herbert Stein’s old adage—“If something cannot go on forever, it will stop”—still holds. Take illegal immigration. There are currently somewhere from 11 million to 15 million immigrants living in the United States without legal authorization. Last month, nearly 100,000 people were apprehended or turned away while trying to illegally cross the southern border. Some experts suggest that at least that number made it across without arrest. At that rate, the United States would be gaining a fairly large city of undocumented arrivals each month. Most of the people who enter the United States illegally arrive without fluency in English, a high school diploma, competitive job skills, or money. The majority will require support subsidies, and collectively they will require increased legal and law enforcement investments. At some point, American social services will be so taxed that the system will be rendered dysfunctional—as is already occurring in areas of the American Southwest. Or, some regions of America will so resemble the countries illegal immigrants abandoned that there will be little point in heading north. Either way, the current border chaos will find its own self-correcting mechanisms, even if that means there will be no border at all—or northern Mexico and the southern United States will become indistinguishable. Currently, the national debt is $22 trillion and growing at a rate of nearly $1 trillion a year due to staggering annual budget deficits. The George W. Bush and Barack Obama administrations roughly doubled the debt they inherited, and the Donald Trump administration may be on schedule to do the same. More importantly, the national debt is now over 100% of the gross domestic product. Presidents and Congress like to spend and to spread money to voters. They fear politically suicidal recessions if they cut back. But over the last 20 years, the government has mostly exhausted traditional economic stimuli such as larger budget deficits, near-zero real interest rates, and expansion of the money supply.)

DAILY MAIL
— Internet age really DOES mean we get bored more easily and have shorter attention spans, study finds. Our need to keep up to date is beginning to overwhelm our brains, experts say.

The findings don’t necessarily mean our individual attention spans are shorter. – TIM COLLINS (DIERSEN: One of the many reasons why people read GOPUSA ILLINOIS emails is that virtually all the articles that are linked in the emails are less than 12 hours old.)
