CHICAGO TRIBUNE
— FRONT PAGE TOP OF FOLD IN NAPERVILLE SUN: Naperville residents, schools
weigh in on recreational marijuana debate – ERIN HEGARTY https://www.chicagotribune.com/suburbs/naperville-sun/ct-nvs-marijuana-naperville-dispensary-council-decision-st-20190901-4s4cxuncqjb3nann4ued3on7pi-story.html (FROM THE ARTICLE: Three
members of the nine-person City Council have been consistent in their
oppositions to recreational marijuana. They are Patty Gustin, Kevin Coyne and
Paul Hinterlong. On the other side, Judy Brodhead, Benny White and Mayor Steve
Chirico have shown support for allowing recreational marijuana retail sales.
The remaining three council members, Patrick Kelly, John Krummen and Theresa
Sullivan, are somewhere in the middle and likely will ultimately decide whether
Naperville will allow recreational marijuana dispensaries. . .School districts
203 and 204 sent letters to the city noting their reservations about Illinois’
new marijuana law, which takes effect Jan. 1. Sales will be legal only to
people 21 and older. “The District 203 Board of Education, speaking on behalf
of the many students, parents, district staff and administrators and community,
has serious concerns about the impact of recreational marijuana sales on the
teens in our school district. We urge the City Council to consider the impact
of its actions on the teens in our community,” District 203′s letter said.
The School District 204 Board of Education raised similar concerns. “While it
will remain illegal for our students to purchase recreational marijuana, we
have concerns that the increased availability in our community may lead to
potential issues at school,” the District 204′s letter says. “With easier
access to recreational marijuana in our community, what will be the long-term
cognitive impact on our youth who use the drug?” North Central College
also sent a letter, which did not so much take a stance on the issue but
pointed out that “because marijuana remains illegal under federal law and
federal financial assistance remains important to the College and our students,
marijuana will continue to be banned on our campus.”)

Pro-Trump vlogger duo Diamond and Silk are on a legal campaign this week,
threatening to sue two bloggers unless they take down unflattering mentions of
them. So far, though, the letters from the unnamed members of the “Diamond and
Silk Legal Team”—which come with stern warnings not to share them publicly—have
not worked as intended. The pair’s anonymous lawyer have sent at least two
cease-and-desist aimed at stories that mention Diamond and Silk in connection

accused the African-American duo of helping to “prop up the most vile white supremacy.”
Diamond and Silk’s mystery legal team wrote that the article “deliberately and
maliciously slandered and defamed Diamond and Silk and the Diamond and Silk
brand by deliberately and maliciously attaching their name to racist context.”
The letter also includes a warning for Wonkette not to post about the letter:
“This notice is not to be made public via online sources or any other
sources in any manner.” Wonkette just made fun of the letter, published it in

system. The scoring system, first announced in 2014, rates China’s one billion
citizens based on their behavior and associations. Already, nine million people
with low scores have been blocked from buying tickets for domestic flights and
trains. As horrible as this sounds the Silicon Valley tech giants are already
using a similar system here in the United States. And Facebook is using offline
behavior to factor into their scoring system. . .On Monday Fast Company
reported on how the social credit system can happen here. It already is. Alex
Jones last year lost his YouTube, Twitter, Facebook, Apple accounts on a single
day due to comments he made YEARS AGO. Conservatives and Conservative
publishers like The Gateway Pundit are already banned or censored by Facebook,
Google, Twitter, WhatsApp, etc. Conservatives and patriotic Americans have had
their Chase Bank accounts shut down. Conservatives, including this writer, have
been blocked from home insurance companies from purchasing their product.
Conservatives have their incomes targeted and make significantly less than fake

already taking place. This is our future, for all of us. And we have a party of

GOPUSA ILLINOIS
— The August Milton Township Republican Central Committee (MTRCC) monthly
meeting is this evening at the Holiday Inn in Carol Stream. The social hour
starts at 6:00 PM and the meeting starts at 7:00 PM. SEE: http://dupagegop.org/calendar-3/
I will be signing in as a candidate. I am a candidate to be
appointed to fill Wheaton’s West District City Council vacancy. The other six Republican
candidates are Edward Ahern, Jeffery Antonelli, Angela Blatner, Nancy Harding,
Mark Kmeicik, and Robert McNeily.
Hopefully, all of the aforesaid seven candidates will a) attend
meeting, b) announce their candidacies, c) and seek the support of the eighteen
Republican Precinct Committeemen who represent Wheaton’s West District. Those
eighteen Precinct Committeemen are Joseph Caruso, Dave Diersen, Thomas Elsner,
Arthur Grant, Ralph Hinkle, Marty Keller, John Kocinski, Robert Krzyzewski,
Michael Hinsdale, Jae Kwon, Robert Larsen, Connor McCarthy, Robert McNeily,
Ronald Menna, Elizabeth Tatro, James Ryan, Mark Thomas, and Herbert Wehling.
Hopefully, MTRCC will gather relevant information about the
aforesaid seven candidates, provide that information to the aforesaid eighteen
Precinct Committeemen, and host a candidate forum. The goal of providing
information on the candidates and hosting a candidate forum is to help the
aforesaid eighteen Precinct Committeemen recommend to Wheaton’s City Council
the best possible candidate to be appointed to fill the Wheaton West District
City Council vacancy.
In my opinion, the following information about all 10 candidates
should be disclosed: How long they have lived in Wheaton, how long they have
lived in Wheaton’s West District, their work experience, their education, their
professional certifications and licenses, their memberships in professional
associations, why they want to be appointed to fill the vacancy, what they
believe the three most important issues are that Wheaton needs to address in
the next 2 years and how those issues those issues should be addressed, their
political affiliation and activities, their civic activities, if they would
vote for or against banning the sale of pot in Wheaton, what their position is
on Wheaton’s Roosevelt Road corridor, if they would vote for or against
requiring employers in Wheaton to use E-Verify, and what they have done that
demonstrates they can carry out typical city council functions. In my opinion,
Republican Precinct Committeemen in Wheaton’s West District should have the
above information.
At Wheaton’s City Council meeting on Monday, August 19, 2019, its
members will go into executive session to deliberate on the 10 candidates who
have applied. Because, in that session, they will be reviewing the documents
that the 10 candidates have submitted, Wheaton has denied my FOIA request for
those documents.
According to MTRCC’s bylaws (http://www.miltongop.org/about-mtrcc/by-laws),
“When a position within Milton Township is declared vacant, the MTRCC
shall meet within forty (40) days of the declaration of vacancy to recommend an
individual to fill such vacancy. The recommendation shall be decided at a
convention of the Organization by a majority vote of the Organization through a
written ballot.” It would be great if MTRCC would host a candidate forum
for the aforesaid seven Republican candidates.” I urge MTRCC to do the
aforesaid concerning Wheaton’s West District City Council vacancy.
Many Republican candidates, elected officials, and party leaders
routinely attend MTRCC meetings. I hope that the following will attend MTRCC’s
August 14 meeting and a candidate forum if one is held: a) Wheaton’s mayor and
City Council members, b) 6th Congressional District candidates Jeanne Ives and
Evelyn Sanguinetti; c) DuPage County Recorder candidates Ron Almiron and
Babette Holder; d) Illinois officials including Amy Grant; e) DuPage County
officials including Robert Berlin, Fred Bucholz, Daniel Cronin, Pete DiCianni,
Grant Eckhoff, Timothy Elliott, Robert Grogan, Gwen Henry, Richard Jorgensen,
Christopher Kachiroubas, Robert Larsen, Paula McGowen, James Mendrick, Al
Murphy, Sean Noonan, Jeffrey Redick, Darlene Ruscitti, Timothy Whelan, and Jim
Zay; f) Milton Township officials including Sal Falbo, Chris Heidorn, Gail
Hinkle, Marty Keller, Chris LeVan, Gary Muehlfelt, David Molitor, John Monino,
and Yada Nathwani; g) Wheaton Park District officials including Michael Benard;
h) School District 200 officials; and i) College of DuPage officials including
Annette Corrigan, Christine Fenne, Heidi Holan, and Frank Napolitano.
It will be extremely interesting to see which of the seven
candidates are endorsed by which of the aforesaid candidates, elected
officials, and party leaders, and especially which candidates Ives and Sanguinetti
might endorse because they both have served on Wheaton’s City Council.
Further, I will be asking a) Susan Fitch, Chris Zaruba, and other
Wheaton City Council members who attend the meeting to brief the meeting’s
attendees on actions being taken to ban the sale of pot in Wheaton and b) Grant
Eckhoff, Tim Elliott, Bob Larsen, Jim Zay, and other DuPage County Board
members who attend the meeting to brief the meeting’s attendees on actions
being taken to ban the sale of pot in DuPage County’s unincorporated areas.
Further, I will be asking the meeting’s attendees to join me, Bob
Cherry, Dick Furstenau, B.J. Singer, and Tim Whelan in urging DuPage County,
Wheaton, Carol Stream, Glendale Heights, Lombard, Downers Grove, Naperville,
Warrenville, West Chicago, and the rest of the 38 municipalities in DuPage
County to ban the sale of pot.
Further, I will be asking the DuPage County Republican Central
Committee, its Chairman Marty Keller, MTRCC, and the other eight Republican township
party organizations in DuPage County to urge DuPage County and the 38
municipalities in DuPage County to ban the sale of pot. – Dave Diersen http://www.gopillinois.com

CYBER CIVICS
— Responsibilities of U.S. Citizens (DIERSEN: In my opinion, each and every
voter in Wheaton, and especially, each and every voter in Wheaton’s West
District and each and every Precinct Committeeman in the district should a)
learn everything that they can about the 10 candidates who are seeking to be
appointed to fill Wheaton’s West District City Council vacancy, b) analyze that
information, c) decide who they believe the best candidate would be and why,
and d) communicate that to Wheaton’s City Council by email at
allcouncil@wheaton.il.us.) http://www.civics.ks.gov/kansas/citizenship/responsibilities-of-citizens.html (FROM THE POSTING:
Staying informed. Citizens have the responsibility to stay informed of the
issues affecting their communities, as well as national and international

informed about the issues and candidates before voting in an election, getting
involved in a political campaign or running for public office, or using their
right to address the government through activism.)

5 of the candidates (David Diersen, Robert McNeily, Lynn Robbins, Mark Kmiecik,
and Khizar Jafri), but what about the other 5: Nancy Harding, Edward Ahern,
Jeffrey Antonelli, Angela Blatner, and Krista Selvey? In my opinion, the Daily

10 candidates: How long they have lived in Wheaton, how long they have lived in
Wheaton’s West District, their work experience, their education, their
professional certifications and licenses, their memberships in professional

for the West District seat in 2016 against incumbent Todd Scalzo. According to
his LinkedIn page, he is the Midwest regional manager of Turning Point USA, a
conservative group founded by Wheeling High School alum Charlie Kirk for
college and high school students. Robbins, a former Illinois Park and
Recreation Association board member, also ran unsuccessfully against Scalzo for
the West District seat in 2016. Kmiecik finished third in another three-way
race for the seat in 2009. Jafri, a finance and accounting consultant, lost to
Tim Elliott for a District 4 spot on the DuPage County Board in 2016. The
Democrat was seeking his first elected office at the time.)

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.)

CHICAGO TRIBUNE
— AS THE DEMOCRAT PARTY’S STRANGLEHOLD ON ILLINOIS, ON COOK COUNTY, AND ON
CHICAGO TIGHTENS: Meet the people working to kick Chicago out of Illinois –
Cindy Dampier (DIERSEN: Ever-increasingly, the Democrats who run Illinois, Cook
County, and Chicago make it clear that they want each and every individual,
organization, and company that is a Trump supporter, Protestant, conservative,
patriotic, Republican, American, White, male, older, rich, gun owner, German
American, draft avoider, and/or those whose ancestors have been in America for
a long time TO LEAVE ILLINOIS.) https://www.chicagotribune.com/lifestyles/ct-life-illinois-state-secession-movement-0801-20190801-iesnu74ogvfjxfk35sn72lq7ya-story.html (FROM THE ARTICLE: Over
the past two years, the movement to divide the state of Illinois into two
states — Cook County in one, the other 101 counties in the other — has been
gaining support. In February, as Gov. J.B. Pritzker was pursuing an agenda for
Illinois that included new tax and abortion policies, Halbrook refiled a
resolution in the state legislature, HR 101, in which he and six co-sponsors
asked the U.S. Congress to recognize Chicago as the 51st state. “I hear it a
lot from my constituents, that we need to be separate from Chicago,” Halbrook
says. “I thought yep, this is what we need to do.” The resolution, which could
be dismissed as simple political maneuvering — plays big at home, but has scant
chance of seeing daylight in the legislature — is also backed by several
grassroots groups agitating for separation. One of them, Illinois Separation,
founded by Collin Cliburn, of Athens, has 24,000 followers on Facebook, and
growing. Cliburn is also holding events at venues from wineries and gun shops
to community centers around the state through August and September to
capitalize on the cause’s momentum.)

— Pritzker vows to ‘root’ out parents scamming system for college financial
aid for their kids: ‘Shame on you’ “If people are defrauding the system, these
wealthy parents are literally committing fraud here,” the governor said. “We
need to go find them, root it out and make sure that those dollars go to the
right people.” – Tina Sfondeles (DIERSEN: How much debt did/could your parents
take on to pay for your college expenses? I never expected my outstanding
parents to take on any debt to pay for my college expenses. My father fought
type 1 diabetes from age 14, he was the first of his ancestors to earn a high
school diploma, he never attended college, he worked in the office of a nasty
chemical plant, he almost always worked second jobs to pay the family’s bills,
and he did not buy a new car until he was 45 and it was a bottom of the line
Chevy. My mother never attended high school.) https://chicago.suntimes.com/2019/7/31/20749204/pritzker-vows-investigate-parents-scamming-system-fraud-financial-aid-college-shame

returned Wilson’s calls, he said. Instead, Lightfoot sent him a text saying
she’s ‘too busy running the city to call me back.’ (DIERSEN: In politics, to
not return a constituent’s phone call is to dump that constituent. I should write
a book about past and present politicians a) who have represented me at the
federal, state, county, township, and local levels and b) who have not returned
my phone calls.) https://chicago.suntimes.com/city-hall/2019/7/31/20749270/lori-lightfoot-willie-wilson-aldermen-reparations-ordinance

college consultant who developed a strategy to help wealthy clients access
scholarships designed for the poor said she came up with the idea after seeing
how much debt parents were taking on to send their children to college. Lora
Georgieva, owner of a consulting company called Destination College, said she
has been explaining to families for the past two years that if they legally
transferred the guardianship of their college-bound children to a friend or
family member, the teens would be considered independent for the purposes of
financial aid. That means they wouldn’t have to declare their parents’ income
or assets, making it possible for them to collect state, federal and college
scholarships reserved for students from poor families. The strategy was the
topic of a Page One article Tuesday in The Wall Street Journal. Ms. Georgieva
hadn’t responded to requests for comment for that article, but subsequently
spoke Tuesday night with a Journal reporter about her operation. The U.S.
Education Department condemned Ms. Georgieva’s actions and said it was moving
to stop them.)

— Law banning salary history will be life-changing for workers The law, signed
today by Gov. J.B. Pritzker, is a tool to fight the wage gap, and to lift the
entire economy up in the process. – CHERITA ELLENS and WENDY POLLACK (DIERSEN:
If I had not been denied my 7th Amendment rights in Diersen v. GAO, I
would presented a jury with many examples in which GAO paid its female
employees more than it paid its male employees who had more job-related work
experience, more job-related education, more job-related professional
certifications, and/or more job-related professional licenses. GAO was under
tremendous pressure from Democrat politicians to hire, to retain, and to
promote young Democrat minorities and young Democrat females.) https://www.chicagobusiness.com/opinion/law-banning-salary-history-will-be-life-changing-workers (FROM THE ARTICLE:
Questions about salary history are extremely common. A recent survey showed
that of 15,000 people currently evaluating job offers, 43 percent had been
asked for salary history during the interview process. Imagine the cumulative
effects of being asked about previous wages when considering a new job over the
course of a career. Salary history questions are a major contributing factor in
both racial and gender wage gaps. And this is exacerbated for women of color,
who, because of the realities of intersectionality, often face both. Black
women working in the U.S. make just 61 cents to a white man’s dollar. For
Native American women, it’s 58 cents. For Latinas, 53 cents. And when a
potential employer asks for past wages, it allows that pay inequity to
continue, impacting future wages and earning potential. Over a career, a woman
of color can lose over $1 million to the wage gap, further widening the wealth
gap. This loss of income has an impact on opportunities afforded to their
families, support for their communities and the economy at large.)
