We also stand together in protecting our residents from those who would pervert our right to assemble to commit criminal activity.” Below is a list of those who have been arrested and charged since June 1, 2020, for crimes allegedly committed under the guise of peaceful protesting.)

CITY OF WHEATON
— Wheaton Police Department Evening Community Update
https://www.wheaton.il.us/civicalerts.aspx?AID=412
(FROM THE UPDATE: Earlier this evening Governor JB Pritzker signed a disaster proclamation to expedite the use of state resources, personnel and equipment to help municipalities keep residents safe; DuPage County was one of the nine named counties. The Governor also activated an additional 250 members of the Illinois National Guard and over a hundred Illinois State Police Troopers to support various jurisdictions throughout the state in their work to protect communities. Numerous communities surrounding Wheaton have continued to experience increased criminal activity including arson, criminal damage to property and vehicles, the looting of businesses, and some violent crime. Many of Wheaton’s businesses have chosen to board up or reduce their hours of operation during this time. The Wheaton Police Department will continue to protect our community with a heavy patrol presence in our business districts and residential neighborhoods until this ongoing countywide crisis is stabilized. The Wheaton Police Department will continue to be alert for potential threats to the community. If you witness criminal or suspicious activity, the Wheaton Police Department encourages you to get to a safe location and call 9-1-1 for police response.)

CITY OF WHEATON
— Wheaton Community Update
https://www.wheaton.il.us/civicalerts.aspx?AID=410
(FROM THE UPDATE: Many of the communities surrounding Wheaton experienced a high volume of criminal activity at shopping malls, government buildings, and business districts last evening. This disruption also caused public transportation such as CTA and Metra to temporarily suspend services in some areas. While Wheaton’s businesses were not directly affected last evening, the Wheaton Police Department encourages its residents and community members to stay safe by following these safety tips. Expect delayed openings of some area businesses. Check or follow a business’s social media or website for changes to hours of operation. When commuting, travelling, or planning a shopping trip to other neighboring communities check local news to ensure it is safe to do so and the business is open.

(FROM THE ARTICLE: The WOTC encourages “employers to hire and train people who are experiencing severe difficulties that are often linked to unemployment,” such as recipients of certain federal and state assistance programs, individuals who have completed or are completing certain rehabilitative services, and certain individuals convicted of felonies, by offering them tax credits. To qualify for the WOTC tax credit, employers must “obtain official confirmation of job applicants’ WOTC eligibility status before” making an offer of employment.)

LEXOLOGY
— Selecting Employees for Recall or Rehire – Shawe Rosenthal (DIERSEN: Overwhelmingly, my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes a) demonize, denigrate, and condemn seniority and b) promote demographics. They promote those who are minority, female, younger, veteran, non-conservative, non-Protestant, non-German American, those whose ancestors have not been in America for a long time, etc. They promote those who promote LGBTQ activity, abortion, mass/illegal immigration, booze, gambling, pot, and other vices, abolition of the First and Second Amendments, patronage, political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, age discrimination, and retaliation for opposing the aforesaid. What seniority do/did you have? I have 20 years seniority as a Milton Township Republican Organization (MTRO) member and as the GOPUSA ILLINOIS Editor and 6 years as a MTRO webmaster. I have almost 7 years seniority as a TAPROOT Republicans of Illinois chairman, 8 years as a Wheaton Chamber of Commerce (WCC) Government Affairs Committee member, 4 years as an Illinois Center Right Coalition (ICRC) Steering Committee member, 3 years as an American Association of Political Consultants (AAPC) Midwest Chapter board member, and 13 years as an Association of Government Accountants (AGA) Chicago Chapter Executive Committee member. In 1997, I had almost 30 years federal seniority – almost 18 years working for GAO, almost 9 years working for IRS, and almost 3 years working for the Post Office. I should write a book about the many similarities between my critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes a) in MTRO, TAPROOT, WCC, ICRC, AAPC, AGA, and b) GAO, IRS, and the Post Office.)
https://www.lexology.com/library/detail.aspx?g=b16b7e14-6c13-4aab-a5b8-78379c8ffbdf
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The traditional selection criteria for layoffs and recalls, commonly specified in collective bargaining agreements, are seniority and ability to perform the job. In a case alleging intentional discrimination, choosing the most senior qualified employee for recall is likely to accepted as a non-discriminatory explanation. Seniority systems can have an adverse impact on groups that were subject to exclusion in the past; however, it is not discriminatory to follow a bona fide seniority system. To be considered a “bona fide seniority system” the system must give primary weight to seniority, be communicated to affected employees and be consistently applied. Nor is it discriminatory to follow a seniority system if it has no adverse impact on any protected group. Many employers believe that seniority should not be a controlling factor, because length of service does not necessarily correlate with employees’ value to them. Employer can choose employees for recall based on any non-discriminatory criteria, such as quality of work, quantity of work, attendance, job related skills, etc. However, management’s subjective impressions about employees are vulnerable to attack on the grounds that they are based on negative stereotypes. It is much safer to rely on performance appraisals that were based on objective criteria and documented.)

https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/opinion/trumps-social-media-e-o-would-sabotage-his-reelection-by-deplatforming-himself
(FROM THE ARTICLE: So, it’s worth considering just what the ramifications of repealing Section 230 would be. Turns out, it would actually be a very bad thing not just for freedom of expression online, but also for the president’s personal political fortunes. Despite all the confusion and obfuscation from critics, here is how Section 230 actually works. It gives all platforms and publishers alike liability protection for open platform content and allows leeway for moderation. For example, this applies to both Twitter and the New York Times. Legally speaking, a Twitter post’s user is responsible for the content, not Twitter, the same is true in the comments sections of the New York Times.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: Look who’s back. Dick Uihlein, the Republican megadonor known for putting his money behind far-right candidates, just gave $5,000 to state Rep. John Cabello (R-Machesney Park), who earlier this month filed a temporary restraining order against Gov. J.B. Pritzker’s stay-at-home order, saying it was hurting small business owners. The governor has maintained it’s a matter of safety to prevent the spread of the coronavirus. Uihlein and his wife, Liz, are taking a stand against the stay-at-home orders. Last month, Liz Uihlein sent a memo to employees at Uline, the couple’s shipping-supply company, urging them to support a petition calling for the recall of Democratic Gov. Tony Evers for violating their constitutional right to work during the coronavirus pandemic. The Uihleins have a history of supporting deeply conservative issues: pro-gun, anti-transgender rights, and pro-Roy Moore (the former Alabama U.S. Senate candidate accused of sexual misconduct with young girls). They were big donors in high-profile races in 2018 only to see their candidates lose, POLITICO’s Natasha Korecki wrote at the time. The Uihleins have since pulled back on — but not ended — their political giving. Along with donating to Cabello, their Americas PAC pumped more than $800,000 into funding two Senate races: Republican John James in Michigan and Sen. Joni Ernst in Iowa.)

SPRINGFIELD STATE JOURNAL REGISTER
— Langfelder, police chief served with cease-and-desist notices by Fox Run lawyer – Brenden Moore (DIERSEN: Constructively, since 2000, my critics/opponents have served me with many cease-and-desist notices to get me to stop sending out GOPUSA ILLINOIS emails. I should serve them with cease-and-desist notices. Better yet, I should sue them.)
https://www.sj-r.com/news/20200527/langfelder-police-chief-served-with-cease-and-desist-notices-by-fox-run-lawyer
(FROM THE ARTICLE: A day after a Springfield restaurant received a cease-and-desist notice for defying Gov. JB Pritzker’s stay-at-home order, an attorney representing the restaurant and two other local businesses that opened early has returned the favor to Mayor Jim Langfelder and Police Chief Kenny Winslow. Thomas DeVore, an attorney representing Fox Run Restaurant, Bow and Arrow Salon and FitBodies, said he is “putting the City of Springfield on notice to cease and desist with any further efforts to violate my client’s civil rights” through enforcement of Pritzker’s order. The notice comes a day after Fox Run itself was served with a cease-and-desist notice from the Springfield Police Department, which informed the owners that failure to comply could result in the restaurant’s closure by the local or state health department or civil liability.)
— Good Standing certificates for attorneys will be available online – Doug Finke (DIERSEN: What about good standing certificates for journalists like me?

I have put together and sent out a GOPUSA ILLINOIS email each and every morning since 2004 and each and every evening too since 2015. Since 2004, those emails have included links to 368,685 articles and information on many upcoming events. I worked for GAO as an Analyst 1980-1997, the last 11 years of which at the GS-13 Step 1-10 levels, currently $101,176-$131,532/year. Much of what GAO Analysts do is very similar to what journalists do.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: Earlier Wednesday, Trump warned social media giants that the federal government could “strongly regulate” or “close them down” if they continue to “silence conservative voices,” amid his flaring battle with Twitter after the platform fact-checked one of his tweets for the first time this week. “Republicans feel that Social Media Platforms totally silence conservatives voices,” Trump tweeted. “We will strongly regulate, or close them down, before we can ever allow this to happen. We saw what they attempted to do, and failed, in 2016. We can’t let a more sophisticated version of that happen again.”)

FOX BUSINESS
— TRAGIC, DISGUSTING: Who is more likely to smoke marijuana? – Daniella Genovese
https://finance.yahoo.com/news/more-likely-smoke-marijuana-194842942.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: According to a July 2019 poll from Gallup, which surveyed 1,525 adults across the nation who were at least 18 years old, the likelihood of someone smoking marijuana “varies significantly” by gender, age, region and political ideology. Overall, the survey indicated that adults between 18 to 29 years old are the age group most likely to smoke marijuana. According to the findings, 22 percent of 18- to 29-year-olds revealed they smoked, which makes them twice as likely to smoke compared to adults from 30-49 years old and seven times as likely as adults older than 65 years old. Eleven percent of adults from 30-49 years admitted to smoking and 12 percent of people ages 50 to 64 do. Meanwhile, only three percent of people over the age of 65 admitted to smoking. . .Aside from age, the results also revealed that men are twice as likely to smoke marijuana than women. Additionally, liberals are six times more likely to smoke than conservatives and twice as likely as moderates, according to the findings.)

BROOKINGS INSTITUTE
— Public service and the federal government – Fiona Hill (DIERSEN: Who looks down on you? From what I see, ever-increasingly, Republicans look down on federal employees and look down on federal retirees. I was a federal employee for almost 30 years and I have been a federal retiree for almost 23 years.)
https://www.brookings.edu/policy2020/votervital/public-service-and-the-federal-government/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Popular appreciation of and respect for government service and public servants have steadily declined in the United States since the 1960s, with only two brief exceptions: in the 1990s during the Clinton administration, and in the months immediately after the 9/11 terrorist attacks. There is a particularly deep sense of distrust in the U.S. federal government. In an April 2019 Pew Research Center poll, for example, only 17% of respondents indicated that they trusted the federal government “to do the right thing.” Why is this the case? While there is significant support for the vital functions public servants perform at the local and state levels, and during crises, deeply entrenched misconceptions about the U.S. federal government and its individual agencies shape more negative views. For example, the opinion that the U.S. government is vast and unwieldly is widespread outside the public sector. The U.S. population has been evenly split for several years in its views on the optimal size of the U.S. government—with 47% of those polled by Pew in 2019 seeing government as either too big or too small. The two perspectives reveal a sharp partisan divide. Sixty-seven percent of those who affiliate with the Democratic Party express support for the expansion of government services. On the “too big” side of the ledger, 74% of those who describe themselves as Republicans want to see the government shrink in both size and functions. Newspaper and opinion page headlines such as “The sheer size of our government workforce is an alarming problem” encapsulate this view.)

— What is China’s social credit system? – Bradford Betz (DIERSEN: What if America, Illinois, your county, your township, your municipality, and your municipal district had social credit systems? What would cost people points – being a Trump supporter, Protestant, conservative, patriotic, Republican, American, White, male, older, obese, non-healthy, non-poor, gun owner, German American, draft avoider, and/or if your ancestors have been in America for a long time? What would put people on blacklists – opposing the promotion of dependency on government, dependency on charity, LGBTQ activity, abortion, mass/illegal immigration, abolition of the First and Second Amendments, booze, gambling, pot, and other vices, patronage, political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, age discrimination, and retaliation for opposing the aforesaid?)

https://www.foxnews.com/world/what-is-china-social-credit-system

(FROM THE ARTICLE: China’s social credit system is a government program being implemented nationwide to regulate its citizens’ behavior based on a point system. Under this system, citizens are ranked in different areas of civil life using data collected from court documents, government or corporate records, and in some cases, citizen observers. Citizens with higher scores have had an easier time getting bank loans, free medical checkups and discounts on heating. Points have been deducted for traffic violations, selling faulty products or defaulting on loan payments. In some cases, people with bad social credit scores have been barred from buying airline or train tickets. Other infractions have included smoking in non-smoking zones, buying – or playing – too many video games and posting false news stories online, Business Insider reported. People failing to comply have been placed on so-called “blacklists,” which companies may reference when considering potential employees. In other cases, students may be denied entry into universities because of their parents’ bad social credit scores. China’s State Council first introduced the plan in June 2014. The council announced the system would “allow the trustworthy to roam everywhere under heaven while making it hard for the discredited to take a single step.” At first, officials implemented the system gradually in different cities. It was expected to go nationwide this year, but has been delayed amid the coronavirus pandemic.)
